1.
Approaching The Unknown (Lyrics: Tristán I. / Pablo.E) There is something you can never pass Over the edges of the shore I feel the air that burns inside of me You´re late to see how I reborn Watching your consumption through my small window I keep thinking about my trip Breaking clouds of sand This will never end until I break my chains Is this your best move? Keep an eye on me and listen your shitty soundtrack. Sooner or later, you will stop feeling that well-being. It´s just your ego killing you slowly. The lies not longer work Invited to the banquet of despair Tears that are born of joy To know that this is not the end Is this your best move? Keep an eye on me and listen your shitty soundtrack. Sooner or later, you will stop feeling that well-being. It´s just your ego killing you slowly. Rivers of glory into your subconscious Maybe you feel the control now, but you´ll not have it forever. Hundreds of sleepless nights Your rest is a piece of suffering.
2.
Blended In The Urn (Lyrics: Andrés Pestana) This fear just served to stir the burning sense Nor love nor pity in hell raised For so many years in misery I dwelled Where all hate is firmly praised With strength and fire did wrath return Holding the breath and walking on thorns I ended up among the embers I burnt With all my memories blended in the urn Broken in the end, heaven shook and wailed It took me out from depths for what my soul prevailed Shivering hands so frail, like silent fog it fades Blended in the urn, never to return Gazing at the end, I shiver hidden in the shades I am part of what remains, the ashes of a plague Blended with all the things I shared, blended in the urn Blended with all the things I cared, blended in the urn Under a leaden rain, my shoulders were shattered My soaked wings I vainly flutter All tears along the way are scattered My spirit is free, my soul is battered
3.
The Tears I´ve Shed (Lyrics: Andrés Pestana) So many years you’ve been so quiet For so long in this peaceful darkness I finally understand your harshness Oh beautiful landscape, I dread your silence Moved by the greatness of your calm Sheltered in your shadows until dawn when the sun comes up I'll be gone I broke your calm and lost my own For all these fears I’ve lived For all the tears I've shed For losing all my hollow bitterness For not falling into the abyss Far beyond the fears that I dwelled Far beyond my blazing living hell I longed for the storm to keep my tears away
4.
Bed Of Snakes (Lyrics: Tristán I. / Andrés P. / Pablo E.) You came to realize, you saw it in the eye Full of misery, your whole world turned black I knew it, you knew it, there was no doubt I don't understand why we played with this A part of me was broken and you just let my nights go by And from the beginning knowing that this was the end I was drowned where the mountain streams flood I was immersed in a void of untrue lust From nothingness and pain my rebirth began I'm free of those burning chains and embers dust You made my bed of snakes I could see it in your eyes of hate Your mind creations, your obliteration Your own poison, my liberation Now that you despise my gift Now that I know what my path is I'm slithering like a snake in the mud I'm shedding my skin in the leaden dark A crown falling down the stairs Cutting off the head of the snakes Is the only thing they understand I was drowned where the mountain streams flood I was immersed in a void of untrue lust From nothingness and pain my rebirth began I'm free of those burning chains and embers dust You made my bed of snakes I could see it in your eyes of hate Your mind creations, your obliteration Your own poison, my liberation
5.
My Hidden Friend (Lyrics: Andrés Pestana) The end of all shows no devotion But disturbs longing and a deadly omen as days turned dark my fears awoken With anger yelling my hidden emotion Fade out the will for my doom to be spoken Secrets with me lying at the bottom of the ocean My funeral march yet in motion My wandering soul, my silence unbroken. Now that I´m here standing still in the rain It flows on me and eases myself while ceases this pain Even if I for a thousand years lived this way I would come back to you again and again, my hidden friend Within this place of mysterious forms Where the wind turned serece and caress my world A pleasing dream through the storm Where I found what my secrets mean and what I came for.
6.
Light The Pyre (Lyrics: David Zabala) As I decided to live or die A ghost has come to teach me how So many times I call her name So many times is gone away The dressed in black mistress is vanishing whispers she helds tightly by her bony fingers her scythe Above my soul awaits A blade that never fails A coffin made of ice Sed with rusted nails No more chance to change No more lies to go back Leave the past alone There is not tomorrow Sailing through time by the weakest light This is how it should be Light the pyre and let me leave
7.
Scars On Your Chest (Lyrics: Tristán I. / David Z.) Barefoot, walking over embers Across the quiet land A place of no return Where the hope has no chance Where the dreams die of pain Burning tears down your face Plowing scars on your chest Rivers of suffering Sun red covering Ancient witches are Kneeling on its banks As silent witness of the time A twisted tree grows at the end of the path Gnarled as a elders hand A throne with spines Don’t blame the rind For human kind All your mistakes Are a burning trail You must give in Stand on your knees The lord of silence is here
8.
Banished Endeavours (Lyrics: Tristán I. / Andrés P. / Pablo E.) Empty showers of feelings Flickering lights that bring back memories Doors without a latch are closed, to never be reopened. When your last breath arrives bittersweet drops fall from a rough soul. As the shadows grow the eyes that I´m looking for came to weep all their sorrow. A path that touches eternity, Oceans of illusions, that want to catch you Are sick of escaping from your sadness. I faced your river of lies, I was once your broken toy, Until my endeavors were banished. You dragged me into your loneliness, The only place where I could rest. The renewal of my existence lies far from you, To jump higher I have to walk and hit the bottom. I don´t even remember who I am Only our faded story remains...
9.
Outward Journey (Lyrics: Andrés Pestana) It's pounding on my brain It's pounding yet again Saw an exit far away Saw it far across a plain It's holding the pain It's holding it in vain Saw myself going far away Saw me far across my way My outward journey from the earth, From so many ways I went forth In all of them trying to keep my own self-worth In all of them with a deeper wish of leaving and rebirth What sets us apart (you from me) What I couldn’t have (I couldn’t see) What I always wanted (to be free) My outward journey (far from here)
