2.	Legacy of the Faceless God 03:45	lyrics	buy track
Why are you so blind to see? Look at the blood under your feet How you excuse your misdeeds? How much more do you need? …Greed… As it feeds strength on your fears When you steal from your soul Then it crawls deep down beneath And transforms your heart into coal With eyes full of greed You see what you will The lust of the flesh And needs to fulfill Enough is less than you need Always unsatisfied On pain you feast Trying to carve your name Amidst the stars Climbing a pile of sins See where you are Avarice will tear the chance To reach sublime Through greed and duality To merge with divine
3.	Day of Bereavement 04:41	lyrics	buy track
When it was when war have started The world collapsed and we crumbled away While searching answers and eternal reason Forever blinded we remained Shores are passing over In constant wait for yesterday We’re fading silently from inside Leaving off in soulless pain They used to play outside Uneasy spirits of my past Inhabitants of world in ruin Where hope no longer lasts The pain behind my eyes It never fades it never fades The lies I trusted once Never again never again The poison that I drank Is crawling through my veins I am leaving all behind To die in peace today
4.	Open the Gates 06:20	lyrics	buy track
With birth in flesh and bones Evoked by holy plan To rule amongst the beast Was given chance to man And so he stood ablaze His eyes upon creation Drawing wisdom from the snake Oblivious to his damnation He discovered there is a pleasant prize Beyond the gates of sin At the chamber of illusions dreams and wonders So incomplete and yet supreme His endless kin is Laying waste on everything Feeding on suffering The greatest mistake – The creation of mankind Of all the agony the terror and despair The skillful one would reach for the potential of the mind On a quest he would go to receive the mercy of time He’ll return in a form – flesh and claws Open the gates of God’s domain Release the strain of endless pain
5.	Pallid Shades 03:46	lyrics	buy track
Are you facing a dead end I should have seen it coming No more time to pretend No way to keep on running In this world painted grey Nobody could be that strong You just did it your own way But now it all feels so wrong Was it all in vain? Every step will take you closer To the point of no return It's just the way this life goes over There's nothing useful here to learn Every day could bring you wonders How come they cannot be seen There is more to life than thunders Open now your eyes pristine So when the day fades You still search for a reason But nothing ever helps You’re a captive in your own mind's prison Drawbacks will emerge forever Will you stand alone and wait For your worn out soul to suffer Throwing you in dark descent Was it all in vain?
6.	The Epilogue 03:59	lyrics	buy track
Forgotten echoes fill the air Their souls are screaming with despair Life expires before their eyes Their world is sewn with endless lies Their doom befell this place before It was left without its timeless lore With faith uncertain they were born Into the endless fall by hate they are thrown Deceived by darkness ends the day Coldness flows through fire All that’s living will fade away In time there may be found a way Uncorrupted by their ire Into the afterglow of endless recurring day Steeped in insolence And lust of gain Humanity at the end Will have a price to pay Deceived by darkness ends the day Coldness flows through fire All that’s living will fade away In time there may be found a way Uncorrupted by their ire Into the afterglow of endless recurring day
7.	Overwhelming Me 05:00	lyrics	buy track
Liquid despair is running inside me The bottle is ready and waiting to hide me In her embrace it’s all the same I drink disgrace and swallow shame For every failing try I’m guilty What remains inside is so filthy It’s taking over me My weakness is overwhelming me It forces me back to the end These are the days of my final descent Depressive obsession of liquor consumption Leading me through the paths of abduction Still keep running away from reality Distorted perceptions enchanting insanity
8.	Throne of Silence 05:20	lyrics	buy track
Take away the darkness That fell upon my dream For lost beyond redemption Vanishes the man in me Memories frozen in time An ingenious invention Always something there to remind me A paradigm of life A sacrifice for high ideal The rain of doubt’s been falling down Again with sour feel As I carve in the stone Knelt on hands and knees As I build my infernal machine Held in secrecy On a race for my life As the pendulum swings Reign of terror ends tonight A perfect conspiracy I reach into the blindness But toll no bell for me A path beyond redemption In darkness I can see As I disappear into the shadows deep A momentary lapse into remorse and guilt Still the greater goal ahead will justify my means Hero, martyr or assassin - only time will tell
9.	...as Eons Fade 05:46	lyrics	buy track
I’ve been trapped here for eternity Millennia ago my body died Sorrow and flesh became a memory But my anger still is breathing fire Destruction and fires Sin upon sin Government lies Manmade disease Occult sacrifice Sadistic regimes Million cries I’ve been fueling enough through the years I’ve been watching you from my tower in the sky Getting into the fear of your own demise You follow existence with new blood And profusion before your short sighted eyes The fabric of your inner self untouched from within Litter the margins before you Leaving you lost in your dreams You set sails to another certainty You’re million miles behind your dream Still living in a form of reality You set sails to another century You’re million miles behind your dream Still living in a form of fallacy Embers of becoming Light a new world’s dawn Ending of an Era With no rebirth to come Shadows that are rising From the last remains A repeating tragedy The universe will soon forget
