No Man's Land
04:03
|
|||
|
Over the fields of sorrow dust remains
Emptiness fulfills landscape where ages will end.
Souls of the fallen solders sing through night
No one will ever leave the no man’s land.
Battles for wasted dreams,
Deaths for nothing worth of it.
Corpses rotting down
No one leaves the no man’s land.
Pain and darkness hold them tight, lives are ruined, there’s no place to hide.
Hopeless creatures cry in night, no man’s landing will stay at the dark side.
Over the burning shadows stars will fall
Never will come the sunrise, the darkness is cold.
Ghosts of the fallen soldiers guards the night,
No one will ever leave the no man’s land.
Erasing the past
Destroying the hope that lasts
Future melting down
No one leaves the no man’s land.

Turn Back Time
03:03
|
|||
|
Hiding from the shadows into the night
You lost your heart and mind
Falling from stars into the great light
You found a greater bound
Turn back time, they never said you’ll be fine
And no more lies tomorrow
The wings you’ve lost in everlasting fight
Never will be returned to you.
Finding the path to eternal life
You lost your heart and soul
Meeting the darkness in your own mind
You will become whole.
Turn back time, they never said you’ll be fine
But here comes tomorrow.
The wings you’ve lost in everlasting fight
Will someday be returned to you.

Masquerade
05:00
|
|||
|
Looking back in mirror
Dust and the ashes cover the sight
This is when the masquerade has come to the end
But the masks still wander through the night
Looking for the light where thirst for the lust will disappear.
Staring at the empty ballroom
Ghosts and shadows passing by
Creatures of night still dance
Memories fading away into dark
Don’t lose sight, this is how you stay alive.
Burn like letter never written.
Burn like whispers in the frozen hell.
Your memories keep you away from wishing this was the end.
Gown has turned into dirty shroud
Laces burn and ashes cover sight.
Castles of dreams are falling,
Hope is lost in the night
Where the monsters cry
Burn like letter never written,
Burn like whispers lost in frozen hell.
Your memories keep you away from wishing this was the death.
Candles has melted to charcoal,
Fountains crush, wine is poured to cover flood of blood.
In the abandoned ballroom masks still dance
Without chance that morning will bring the light.
Masquerade. Ball is over.
Now when the masks have fallen
Hide your face from the light.

Tales of the Northern kingdom fade into the dark,
Glaciers and silver icebergs swallow the endless path.
Daughter of Northern wind walks through eternal night,
No man or God, or daemon can make her sight get bright.
Sapphire eyes and tongue of iron, every word is cursed,
Centuries without the sunlight, hate is the one who rules.
Emptiness and wind of despair wander through her mind,
Memories of deepest sorrow captures and holds her tight.
Once there was joy and laughter, now it has turned to dust
Daughter of Northern wind, heart of yours is full of rust.
Silver swords and golden arrows break snow and ice,
Walls are falling, castle is burning in front of her eyes.
Northern Light, curse of the night!
Doors are melting, locks are breaking, chains fall apart,
Over lonely fields of sorrow shine only Northern light,
Stardust hair and smile with diamonds, death in her eyes,
Daughter of the Northern wind breaks in your mind.

Water Horse
04:20
|

|
Waters are wicked, the stars are forgotten,
The sorrow of moon lies beneath of the sea.
Take my hand and come down to the ocean
Where blood is covering secrets and dreams.
Cries of mermaids fly over ashes
And crimson waves shine in the night
Take my hand and come down to the ocean
Where we should be facing our deepest fears
Creature of depths of the darkest waters
Tell me how to feel your soul
Once kept in secret from world and mankind
Just come to me, water horse
Eyes of moonlight, horns of the fallen stars,
Voice of lost, drowned souls
Take me with you, I’ll stay there forever
In nights that are older than ancient times
Creature of night of the darkest waters
Tell me how to free your soul
Kept in the prison from life and sunlight
I’ll come to you, water horse
Creatures of night
Live without a soul
Stay out of the light
We’ll come to you, water horse
Creature of night of the darkest waters
Tell me how to free your soul
Kept in the prison from life and sunlight
We’ll come to you, water horse

Spell of the Night
03:35
|
|||
|
Moon breaks the spell, night is dying young
Sky falls asleep, darkness takes the crown
This is where stars will fall till the end of time
Stolen light, broken soul, she awaits her night,
Far from Gods, left by all, once again she’ll shine.
Here in the darkness witchcraft should rise.
Secrets of the darkness fills the night with cries
Feather of the raven, blood from dragonfly,
This is where spell will last till the end of time.
Darkness comes, takes your soul, there will you belong,
Through your mind and your fear rises spell of the night
This is the night when you lost your soul
Wicked forests, burning seas, end of the days has come,
Through the sparks and the flames rises spell of night.
This is where time will stop in the eternal night

Castle of Raven's Heart
03:00
|
|||
|
In the time when rivers started to flow,
Mountains raised, stars were born.
Men were brave, their spirit strong,
No one could break their heart or sword.
Wisdom of the elders sparkled,
Faith and honor lead their hearts.
Ruins of hopes, shards of dreams,
Ashes over glorious past.
Remember the story of the castle of Raven’s Heart.
Shadows fall through the walls,
The mist of oblivion come.
The castle of the Raven’s Heart.
Ancient forces rouse within the walls,
Darkest courses captured hearts and minds.
Wisdom of the elders shaded away
Only damned there could stay.
Ruins of hopes, shards of dreams,
Ashes over glorious past.
Remember the story of the castle of Raven’s Heart.
Shadows fall through the walls,
The mist of oblivion come.
Lives only Raven’s Heart.

Puppet Show
04:33
|
|||
|
Curtains closing, the play should end;
Every pattern of the silence should be thrown away.
Forget your roles, and wake up, just cut the strings.
Follow all that you believed before,
May the bridges you are burning light this puppet show.
Sprockets turning, the prophecies come true.
When the mirrors will be breaking, where would you look.
Throw out the shadows and face the truth, let the scenario burn!
Awaken your mind and wake up again,
Let you be the greatest master of your own puppet show.
Masks are falling, roles disappear.
Disrupted images become one again.
Wake up and get off the stage, forget the role you got!
May the bridges you are burning
Enlighten this puppet show.

Hell on Earth
05:24
|
|||
|
You will never turn river to sky,
You’ll never make the sun rise in the West,
Words you’ve said will hunt you forever,
Damned soul of yours will never get blessed.
Rise your daemons, call on the troops!
The only place you will find hell is inside you.
Flames of curses coming closer
Spades of hate will kill everything you love
Don’t dream, your time is over
Too much words, too much of the poison flows.
Words can cure, and words can be cruel.
You can cut out one’s heart without sword!
Rise your daemons, call on the troops!
The only place you will find hell is inside you.
