Turning, wending, always night follows day The sun will shine again Walk on, never look back Through you, we live... Tales of loss and fire and faith Every word on our hearts engraved In the dark, you will not stray Forge ahead till the end we pray

Blazing Scarlet, fire within Honor binds me unto errant kin Yea, if here I find my end Stay your tears, for we shall meet again

Know our places, for worth is wordless Evanescent, this writing on the wall Brother stay this descent to madness Come and save us. Catch us before we fall

Follow blindly like lambs to slaughter At the mercy of those who ply the sword As our song wends dead underwater We're forgotten for now and evermore

Flames consume, tides subsume Cut down all who would dare hold you back, prove there's naught you lack Earth befouled, fierce winds howl Face hell now to prove your will unyielding You must walk this path alone, but know that you are not the first nor last to seek purgation

Thy Life is a riddle, to bear rapture and sorrow To listen, to suffer, to entrust unto tomorrow In one fleeting moment, from the Land doth life flow Yet in one fleeting moment, for anew it doth grow In the same fleeting moment Thou must live Die And know

Laid bare Picked clean Bred deep In the bones that feed the menagerie Burns hot Burns brief All hope Till there's nothing left but ash

To all of my children in whom Life flows abundant To all of my children to whom Death hath passed his judgement The soul yearns for honor, and the flesh the hereafter Look to those who walked before to lead those who walk after

Wrought from the rock that stands upon old With heart of black and a stare that's cold Cold are the hands that grasp at your soul 'Fore the graves are dug and the death knells toll.

Beat, the Heart of Sabik, the Heart of Sabik, the Heart of Sabik

Wanting, I lie Too weary to die Too lost to the ice for saving My sins claim me, untame me Eyes wet with tears Her song in my ears Broken, faded, how long have I waited To open my wings

A drifting tender Come ride, heroes, ride Her galleon severed Away with the tide The stormheads gather Come ride, heroes, ride Illusions scattered Away with the tide

Falling too fast, no it won't overtake me A voice from the past echoes loud like a drum (oh, yes) no more goodbyes, though my heart is still aching Now open my eyes, one more time, Here I come

Rise high, high above your rivals Spread your wings Spread them wide You needn't hide Hereby free to ever slumber Open the door Close your eyes You are the dreamer

Time Stellar stories starward bestrewn, slipping sidewise, see, they're snakes Twixt the leaves you'll find naught amiss—missing aughts and crossing fates Freedom surgent shifting ahead, comets dancing in her wake To the cosmic clarion's accord, along the path not taken

Fires blaze, waters rage Gods above are deaf now to your cries (deaf now to your cries) Earthen scourge, gale winds surge Look within and seek your own salvation Do you claim to have the strength to brave the flames of battle, conquest, death, annihilation

Your time is come A choice bestown Tonight, for unsung sins atone This night, you need not walk alone

One kingdom's fall is another kingdom's freedom One sovereign's war is another sovereign's peace One mother's pride is another mother's sorrow Their tears both soak the land that they love

Follow me (Follow me) Come follow me (Follow me) To Pandemonium Still bound to the flame that I bear (There's) No release (Rescue me) From this empty, waking wonderland (Rescue me) So scream if you like, 'cause we're all mad here Scream all you like, 'cause we're all mad here

Our time to shine Join in the salt wind's choir as we wander with the tide Come enjoy the ride Hold your head up high High, on the dawn we set our sights A new horizon Fly, ever forward, starry-eyed To an open sky

Rise high, high above our rivals Spread our wings Spread them wide Let them guide Hereby free to ever slumber Open the door Close our eyes We are the dreamers

Your time is come A choice bestown Tonight, for unsung sins atone This night, you need not walk alone

Bow down overdweller (under the weight) Bow down overdweller (under the weight) Bow down overdweller (under the weight) Bow down overdweller (in hell I wait)

Yes, ever do our aching souls march Heavensward As they've done for so long

Writhe, bleed, resist me no more Twisted and broken, farewells left unspoken Journey's end As I ascend

Stand tall, my friend May all of the dark lost inside you find light again In time tumbling, turning we seek amends Eternal winds to the land descend Our journey will never end

Blazing Scarlet, fire within Honor binds me unto errant kin Yea, if here I find my end Stay your tears, for we shall meet again

One brings shadow, one brings light To this riddle all souls are tied Brief our moments, brazen and bright Forged in fury, tempered in ice Hindmost devils, early to rise Sing come twilight, sleep when they die Heaven's banquet leavened with lies Sating honor, envy, and pride

Fearless hearts ablaze (When the world comes crumbling down) No more time to waste (Know I'll be there) No, it's not too late (Though our fleeting moment has gone) To forge ahead (You're not--you're not alone YEAH)

For the last time (I won't say goodbye) For the last time (I won't say goodbye) For the last time (I won't say goodbye) For the last time

Authors of our fates Orchestrate our fall from grace Poorest players on the stage Our defiance drives us straight to the edge A reflection in the glass Recollections of our past Swift as darkness, cold as ash Far beyond this dream of paradise lost

One brings shadow, one brings light One more chapter we've yet to write Want for nothing, nothing denied Wand'ring ended, futures aligned One brings shadow, one brings light One brings shadow, one brings light You are the light

Here I rise Claim my prize Every moment, every sacrifice In Anabaseios I am the truth, the divine

I am shadow, I am the light

Unwind your heart and find your worries'll disappear Here ev'ry trail is paved with hope Tonight the stars align, our fortunes, are crystal clear Now turn the page to tales untold

Seeking the peace of reason Sheep in a peaceless season Reason to keep believing Waken the beast who's sleeping

Tender hearts or sorrow's skies to mend (oh oh) (Fill them with golden tones instead) Steady forward, there's so much to see (for you and me) (Together you and me)

Where the serpent lies Where the serpent lies The angels graze in the meadows of excess They must needs go that the devils drive

Fairest goddess wandering the night In your name we bare our hearts (Songbirds of night) With your grace will our passion take flight (Passion take flight) We would keep your song alive Shrouded safe in soft moonlight (Silver and white forest moonlight)

The edge is calling tonight The edge is calling tonight The sun is setting, darkness taking over A date with chaos and you're dressed to the nines

We fall We fall We fall We fall unto the end

Stoke now nascent flame, brighter burn, dance with souls afire May ember catch and red-gold spark rise to new heights May we want for naught coin can buy Never see wealth's river run dry May we find fortune after life For this we pray, we pray, we pray, we pray twinfold

Falling too fast, but the fall will not break me A voice from the past echoes loud like a drum (oh, yes) no more goodbyes, I am tired of waiting Now open my eyes, one last time, Here I come (yeah I come)

Transcendental minds unleashed Exponential entropy Forward and back and then go forward and back And then go forward and back, then put one foot forward

Through the silent woods tonight, I am guided by moonlight, For the first time so alone fearing no shadow Like my mother before me I follow this path Knowing love will find me

Wanting, I lie Too weary to die Too lost to the ice for saving My sins claim me, untame me Eyes wet with tears Her song in my ears Broken, faded, how long have I waited To open my wings

In the darkness be by fear consumed Hearts turn cold where naught ever blooms Elemental fury given to flesh Raw strength on a level mere mortals cannot contest The embodiment of earth─earth, wind, water, and fire

Fragile creatures, we are taught to fear the Reaper Ever running, we are dead before we meet Her

Dark horizons, boiling seas From the borders chaos bleeds Savage nobles, cultured thieves Here be lions, follow me

And then you let it inside And then you let it inside You let it eat you till there's nothing left at all So you can feel that you are truly alive
