Whispers of Forgotten Lore    

Walk through the mist at the awakening day
Threatening obscure dismal dark clouds my way

[ Chorus ]
Seducing whisper leads me down
To shallow seas in which to drown
Trapped within magic lullabies
Just as I heard his cursing cries

"Never see the day lit time
Dragon be, revenge is mine

You will forget what you once thought was yours
I'll take your shape and I will
take her, too."

[ Chorus ]

The curse will last until you see
And break the chains of "never-free"

[ Chorus ]

Across the Oceans of Time

I can't wait anymore
Crossed the oceans of time
Hoping once you'd be mine
One desire I keep - for you
And just one wish I pray
'Til the end of all days

You are the light, the brightest light
I had to bury down deep in my heart
After the gloaming waits for dawn
The only rose that can bloom in the dark

At first beam I could live again
Not just shadows could touch
Be as close as the dark

Heed the voice in the wind
And the first beam of light
Takes away gloomy nights

You are alive, you never died
Deep in my soul you're condemned to live on
The day I desire draws so near
Forces the flame in my veins to burn on

And if there's once a rose that blooms
Like your never fading beauty
The sword of mine is at her side
Across the wide oceans of time

Come to me to carry what was lost
Roam through daytime grey
So long a search still going on
I came to claim what just belongs to me...
just to me...

Empty

The mist covers the trees and flowers
With wet eyes I stand here and stare
Alone I'll find my way in the darkness
Longing to fly through the air

The wave swallows my cries and laughter
Just part of the sea are my tears
When I'll swim through the wildest oceans
Drowning is my only fear

All the beauty I see
It won't last eternally
No more beauty to see
And the world is empty

The wind covers all tracks of me
On hot sand I walk through the night
As stars seem to sear me in the desert
A dream it is to my delight

Don't tell me that
All the beauty I see won't last eternally
When there's
No more beauty to see, then the world is empty

Within the Light

Look above to stormswept skies
Towards the gates of Hades
I am drifting with the tide
On a path that candles light
I will follow your way
Reaching for your hand

A faithful desire - flames light the twilight
A star has died before my eyes
Through this storm of fire - as it falls upon me
In the endless shine

The light that beams only for me

Night will fall as I meet you within the light
And I laugh at the ruins of time
Go ahead through this passage and I will guide
This last starlight's return to the sky

Unknown powers guide my trail
Crawl beneath my skin
And rip apart the heart that failed
Gazing down on stormy grounds
Diabolic scenery
Where beyond our truth is found

Foretold and forgotten - like a word of wisdom
That a fool is pulling down
Beguiled by the rotten - that
there's no more time
To turn the page and save the light...

...The light that beams only for me

So come down to waters wild
Take my hand and follow
As it's told, but never done
Just across this sunken shrine
Keeping candles burning
As your star by moonlight shines

Escape from debauchment - Diabolarch's laughing
Soon will ring his own demise
And on this horizon watch a fallen rising
Taking place by Venus' side

Baneful Skies

Moon, as thy silvery beam
shapes my shadow
I see these signs on the
wall I saw before
I should have known they'd return
Come to haunt me
Take all the tears that I've cried
Please forgive

The dark, the dark
Turn off the lights father
The storm, the storm
Just see the flame in my eyes
The dark, the dark
I see through all wisdom
The storm, the storm
Baneful skies

Gaze at the sinister
sky, baneful visions
Clouds blessed with harmless
disguise soon will fall
Providence's a friend of mine
From the ashes
Of my past life I will rise
...And return

Silva mea

Down in this valley, lost and obscure
Rivers are peaceful and shallow
I came this way on a sunny, bright day
Confounded by traces I followed
Did they return or never die
Were they not touched by the years that went by
Once broken eyes with this mighty disguise
See what all wicked survived

Hide in the sunset - Silva Mea
Screams in the night - lost ancient light
One with this forest - Silva Mea
The candle of time I blew out, this is mine

Farther and farther within this woods
Bloom the most beautiful flowers
Steps make no sound on this velvety ground
Where life's not depending on hours
Onward they fly, cross clearest skies
Power and beauty of wild, pounding life
Eternally free, towards paradise flee
Escaping from mortal men's eyes

And when the light of eternity falls
Bright eyes will blink from the shadows
Safe in the arms of this magical warmth
Tranquillity roams through the meadows
Out of the haze there stands amazed
By sparkling and glistening shimmer embraced
The overwhelmed son with the wisdom to come
To tell where the children have gone

On the Darkest day

So before I'm gonna try
Your picture takes my last caress
I say goodbye
For uncertain is the way I take
So I will swallow this
Before I close my eyes

Eternal Life - awaken
Or will I fade - forsaken wine

Towards the shadows of my time
At the end I see it shine
Breaking a new day
Tumbling further through this gate
Fall through whispers that I've prayed
Onward into time

I still remember there was a
light shining on the sea
Fire on the water and the
silence in my darkened room
I do remember the words you said,
you looked into my eyes
But you never saw the true colour
by the mystic candlelight

Knowing that there is this way
The end ablazes the light of day
Future takes its shape
I prepare for your embrace
By approaching a disgrace
Sinister your face

Thorn of a Rose

Across the light blue sky
There are nothing but clouds
And all the trees once green
Have dropped their lifeless leaves
Where is the blackest rose
The only one I would choose
Her colourful bloom's all I need
For my dark ego to feed

On the search for the flower desired
Find the way, find the way to her
Through the shadows by shining fire
Find the way

The search for the black rose has ended here
She is standing right in front of my eyes
I'm kneeling down, stretch my hand to pick
The flower to quench my desire
My heart bleeds as the bloom
loses all her colours
My finger bleeds as a thorn pricks it
She hurts others for not being hurt herself
...Hurt herself

Wounds heal and you'll see
That a rose is not only there to hurt you

Beyond the dark grey clouds
There is nothing but light
At night the stars will shine bright
When wind thrusts the grey clouds aside
I see red roses in bloom
Their beauty and nothing like gloom
Only a fool couldn't see
What I've just discovered for me

At the Night's Plutonian Shore

Again the dawn draws nearer
And brings the fiery sky
The songbirds sing the earliest lullaby

I wish you will remember
When once you'll hear me cry
You'll have to, 'cause I'll never leave your side

Turn to black and disappear whenever she awakes
Wings just leave a shadow on her face
Beams so bright, it hurts my eyes
and burns me from inside
Victim of the unjust tide of light

Each day I see you wonder, you wonder at my kind
Please be undaunted, shape is just a lie
The friend who was the liar, the
wretch that brought you sleep
Oh, tempter let him burn each time I weep

Beams so bright, it hurts my eyes
and burns me from inside
Victim of the unjust tide of light

I guard your sleep my dear
I implore you to forgive me
At the night's plutonian pier

"...And my soul from out that shadow
That lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore"
[ E. A. Poe - The Raven ]

The Throne of Tenebra

The wideness of the air is my domain
Mine is the sky
Mine are the omniscient eyes
Brother of the tempest and the wind
Master of all
The Gates of Tenebra within

Fly up to the sky my dragon son
Storm and thunder guide your
way, ablaze and shine
See with watchful eyes my dragon son
Keep in mind the oath of mine
with truth and light

Once I was the victim of the greed
Cursed for all times
Thirsting for sky and light
Imprisoned by the gold beyond the gate
Until a bright
Beautiful beam lit my way

Rule with breath of fire my dragon son
Seek beyond Tenebra's sun the light of yours
Cry out for my name my dragon son
Trust the flame of mine for I will come

Fire is the throne of the night
Trust in thee, as my powers will rise
As we'll return, vengeance will burn
Scream through the night, that Tenebra will shine
