This feeling. This fear Awaken in the strangest dream In restless sleep I wander the unknown lands of old In awe I gaze The serpent’s crawling in the void The cold of night Entire galaxies shaped from its foils As above the eye can go So below a man can fall Death is life the serpent spoke Then vanished from my mind The sands of time They’re lost within me They lured me In tales of untold truths They grant me The crown of kings for all them fools As above the eye can go So below a man can fall Death is life the serpent spoke Then vanished from my mind Across the narrow gasp of time Black holes lead to distant lands A universe so dark the light has never reached Forms of life in decadent shapes The hunger of pure instinct The serpent moves and all is gone in stardust And I, the king of fools, lost to never be found again As above the eye can go So below a man can fall Death is life the serpent spoke Then vanished from my mind

Lead me out… Wildest dreams I call upon to Shadows dancing in the night Behind crystal eyes of sorrow Buried under thousand layers of snow We burn (skies burn through me) the skies Your gods defiled (born of fire) Your dreams been cursed We rise (fire) the dead We are one and we are bleeding Falling to the ground like leaves The last will rise the empire of heathens Shining our world the most sacred sin Souls dancing under crescent moon Their essence lingers in the air for ages We embrace them ghosts of unearthly dimensions Lurking a vast universal domain We burn (skies burn through me) the skies Your gods defiled (born of fire) Your dreams been cursed We rise (fire) the dead A cosmic vision breathes through me It separates me from the world of men The last will rise the empire of heathens Shining our world the most sacred sin

Days go in vain Memories still linger on Shattered and alone Am I the one to blame? Whispering voices Through my brain “Wasted all your life away” Dreadful nights in pain Made of nightmares We are the holy sinners Pure as white Filled inside with grief We return and silent weep We are the great deceivers Black as the night Blessed with disbelief We are the sacred sons of dreams In this never-ending dream My burning soul awaits I bleed the darkest light I feed the ghost of guilt Voice of thunder in my brain “You will never find your way” Dreadful nights in pain Made of nightmares We are the holy sinners Pure as white Filled inside with grief We return and silent weep We are the great deceivers Black as the night Blessed with disbelief We are the sacred sons of dreams

“And from the night she kissed my soul Wolverine visions ride my dreams Killing my mortal human side In a greedy orgy of blood I will soon turn my back on death I will deny it's cold embrace And be reborn in vampire's grace” Excerpt from Diabolos Rising “Blood Communion” Lyrics used under permission Gifts of faith in the face of torment They were there when I looked away From the cruelty that fell upon us I can look away no longer In front me lays a world of no sense I sparkle upon the jewels of destiny In the shores of disbelief, I will build The eternal empire of nothingness A glorious prize in the eyes of the fools Eyes that burn a crimson fire Their spark will light up the heavens Behold the tale of three hearts united as one Together we stand The gospel of humanity upon these lands Staining the purest of white Conquering the kingdom of kings The image of the fallen emperor The story of the sacred song A glorious prize in the eyes of the fools Eyes that burn a crimson fire Their spark will light up the heavens Behold the tale of three hearts united as one Together we stand Fields of Fire Rain down from heaven Fields of Fire Burning down below Fields of Fire They’re getting higher Burning fields of fire growing in my soul Fields of Fire

Reckoning 04:00
We ‘re born under the sign of mankind Sworn to the black We are children of the night Our dreams betrayed Our dreams have sunk In cups of reddest wine In full moonlight There is no hope behind that smile As we rise From the crypts Blood coming down her eyes Here comes the reckoning All sinners rise This is reckoning, embrace your demise Tonight I am the storm I am the rain The voice of thunder in the hurricane I bring salvation, I bring the flood I'm what's promised Dreadful delight There is no hope behind that smile As we rise From the crypts Blood coming down her eyes Here comes the reckoning All sinners rise This is reckoning Embrace your demise

Are, you here? Are you here? I’ve lost her voice somewhere between dreams And with eyes shut stole away the sun Sometimes at night when the moon is high Under the ocean of stars Visions carved in light Are you here? Αre you here tonight? I’ll close the eyes of the sun I’ll wait for you to come Coming with the wind Crawling through the air Voices of the dead Crying in despair Clouds gather preparing the storm Formless - divine - beneath a hollow sky Faith is lost in a blink of an eye Dreams are brought to life Hope is left to die Αre you here tonight? I’ll close the eyes of the sun I’ll wait for you to come Coming with the wind Crawling through the air Voices of the dead Crying in despair Pushing nails right through my eyes Painting - bleeding - razor smiles Vicious figures haunt daylight Dreams are brought to life Hope is left to die Αre you here tonight? I’ll close the eyes of the sun I’ll wait for you to come Coming with the wind Crawling through the air Voices of the dead Crying in despair

Night falls and from afar the wind blows Bathed in the cries of the damned I hear the call of souls in Limbo Fire and brimstone Blood on hellish ground We bear the mark of Cain Spread the Eclipse of the Sun Witches danced along the demons sang Spread the Eclipse of the Sun Our dreams betrayed but our time has come Gather around – Together we stand Spread the eclipse of the Sun A promise made to be forgotten Like raindrops falling on the sand A kingdom lost to be reclaimed What once was lost will be regained If grief would only have a name Scared in our hearts it would remain We bear the mark of Cain Spread the Eclipse of the Sun Witches danced along the demons sang Spread the Eclipse of the Sun Our dreams betrayed but our time has come Gather around – Together we stand Spread the eclipse of the Sun Sweet death I’m losing control of my self Burn black My dreams now are falling apart We’re born to die as one Spread the Eclipse of the Sun Witches danced along the demons sang Spread the Eclipse of the Sun Our dreams betrayed but our time has come Gather around – Together we stand Spread the eclipse of the Sun

She comes like the Winter’s breeze And in my mind she dwells The memory of Her The dagger and the cloak The memory of Her Forever remain Her image, in my dreams begins to fade With the shattered glass on the floor With the empty stands on the walls The frames that broke And the voice on the outside haunt me Hurt me to bleed And the blood keeps running these days Reminds me of you Let the rain come wash my tears away Let the rain come wash my sins away For this is a sin (Time) Time moves slow so I will let All the ghosts of my past to perish I will endure, to let things off my mind.

Lost Like the wind passing by My hands were tied Grains of sand Slipped through my grasp Trapped inside the frame of time Saw the changes in my life Every winter melt in rain All the memories remain Now heaven is enslaved As I walk the path of pain Oh time In cruelty you shine Words fading away Withered pages In the book of life All held in vain Everything left to die Captured Foolish in my pride Cold streams of blood Carried away The last rays of light Flowing seasons blazing fire Yet I stood in darkens blind Yearning hopes false desires Ignored the coming tide Now heaven is enslaved As I walk the path of pain Oh time In cruelty you shine Words fading away Withered pages In the book of life All held in vain Everything left to die One last time In death I’ll flicker My hopes and dreams Forever will remain Oh time In cruelty you shine Words fading away Withered pages In the book of life All held in vain Everything left to die Tonight, I’ll leave this world behind Under the stormy skies Against the cosmic tides
