Sun (free) 08:16
This silence it drowns me Not a single gust of wind passes by This world no longer breathes This land once so enthralling Now merely a memory left Her cries is to be heard to this day Purest one I hear thy call for salvation I owe one last sacrifice to thee There's no excuse for our betrayal Thy wrath I freely receive Endless fields Where life once just to thrive Not a single song is to be sung In mourning she awaits Intending to perform Her righteous revenge As from a dream an ancient force awakens Paralyzed I stand set and behold Through the torned landscapes she sweeps and restores The wind blew up once more The source of life returns This time to remain untouched Forever to be free And the bane is over The world can breathe once again Unharmed by our blight The portal opens wide A sign of our extinction in motion This is the last steps I'll ever direct Releasing all doubts that dwells deep within

Extending The Horizon (free) 06:19
From the ashes I rise Far beyond the embrace of the stars I'm enclosed by darkness Yet without fear in my heart In this land of solitude Where nothing seems to dwell I walk alone In amnesia I am lost Here's no sun to arise, no moon shining bright Not a single star gazing down at me, not the mildest breeze Something's awakening Below the surface Of this frozen pond So steady now They are leaving the inmost To attend to the disrupted above The fog lies dense Prevents me from seeing what lies beyond A crimson fire arises Its flames licks my skin away Burns my flesh, turns my bones to coal And I am no longer imprisoned in my mortal shape As my body turns to dust We are stranded between two worlds Helplessly stuck Beyond, Beyond all salvation This is our realm Our heart We return as one Into the depths of this fountain Our terminus, the tomb of worth A haven to abolish life A final eternal rest Here I shall desist, I shall desist Here's no sun to arise, no moon shining bright Not a single star gazing down at me, it all fades

The Return (free) 06:08
Awaken now It's time to rise Your soul have had its rest Through centuries lost In dreams so cold The nightmare unfolds once more When night falls Releasing the dark from beyond Liberation of the unknown Beware, as the darkest time begins To reveal the weakness within us all Now ascend to the above Reclaim your righteous throne Introduce yourself with pain Then ride your pale horse Through the burning plains of yours Purge the world When night falls Releasing the dark from beyond Liberation of the unknown Beware, as the darkest time begins To reveal the weakness within us all I lie motionless on the frozen ground The oath has been broken Snow's now falling down from the summer skies Chaos arrives So pure I´ve become Equal to the mother of us all Now carried away by the tides To enter my grave deep, deep below On the surface the beast rode on Along its parched desert Which once used to hold so much life The ember in her heart, extinguished As for all of her beloved creations "A dream of a sequel Without fear and doubt The return of life itself"

Eerie (free) 06:42
And so it came The occasion my heart so passionately burns for O'enchanted night descend upon us So blissful thy presence are The embrace of your starlit above renders my stolen life Oblivious to all but thy nocturnal delight Unaware of the dreadful future No, this moment will never subside (we went) deeper, deeper into the woods In blissful ignorance of what to come, of what to come Something eclipses the moon Erases all shades of light In vain we try to run beyond it's reach Hand in hand Chased by these wrathful, majestic beasts The ground trembles, the surrounding remains pitch-black A malediction divine They struck her down before me, Seperating our flesh I scattered her ashes in the northern winds To set her free Cursed to walk the earth alone Till the end of this, this life I was born into this world alone And alone, I am now standing So empty, a faint spectre of myself I am no more

At The Limits Of Light (free) 06:44
In the nightside he wanders Afar from home In the glare of the crimson moon He heads into the unknown With fire in his eyes In search of the gleam so pure Where am I? What am I? But a creation of flesh and bone A reflection of the life which I scorn Step by step, these attributes I've removed To the ancient chaos I return At the end of my own horizon I've reached the limits of light Now I exit the gates of distress As I head into our blissful mothers night I escape from Gaia's destroyed grounds Once so pure and tempting I fly far above her desolated mountains Away from her withering verdure I was freed By her gentle whisper " O' son, forgive me nothing, I'll set you free " The wind blew up a storm so cold Left nothing untouched by its beuty I directed my steps towards the verge hope was in my eyes As I went beyond existence

Rebirth (free) 07:38
Night had arrived And winter was sweeping by vitality had forsaken me And I was left to die " Is this my funeral, Will I ever see the sun again? " As the snow steady fell Veiled what was left of me I closed my eyes And listened to the night " Soon your soul he'll harvest with his schythe " But out from the darkness A presence firmly emerged My frozen wake she approached with grace She is the oldest star Her heritage runs in my blood An essence fierce as night itself Forever thou shalt guide my steps She regained me not with life, but with a curse "Now, the sun in your chest no longer burns" Condemned to walk among shadows in seclusion of my past Forgotten She is the oldest star Her heritage runs in my blood An essence fierce as night itself Forever thou shalt guide my steps I can't feel anything Except the cold That imprisons my heart I am so empty, so old Is this my rebirth My destiny, this bane The night owns me now Only shadows shares my curse All traits of being human now drained out my infamous soul I was released from my enforced barriers Day by day passes on Yet still the night owns me, as she always has done She is the oldest star Her heritage runs in my blood An essence fierce as night itself Forever thou shalt guide my steps Is this my rebirth My destiny, this bane The night owns me now Only shadows shares my curse

The Realm Of Sleep (free) 03:57
Drowning on the inside Falling through darkened skies I come home This ancient dreamscape So pure and fair Constantly calling my name Reveal thy hidden pathway Unfold thy secret realm of sleep (to me) The yearning to return has grown a ghoul in my heart But now my wait is over Welcome home I return to the origin The land of I To the source from which my essence once took form At last we reunite You and I, my long awaited mother

Memento Mori (free) 07:52
Death comes in silence A gentle sweep beyond our sight Leaving the lone behind All these years I've been dying Slowly fading away Awaiting Now my time has come to join the deceased In a last fiery, impassioned dance My old ailments was cured At last I emitted my soul The crowning of a shadow This barren world is now mine Far beyond my dead, empty home I have risen I've went beyond the limits of life I've left my trivial burdens behind My lamentation of old loss Has now come To an end The shrine has been locked, buried, forgotten Yet empty to remain

A vision that the music we want to express should focus more on dynamic and atmosphere rather than speed and aggresion.
