Luca Turilli - Prophet Of The Last Eclipse lyrics



Tracks



01. Aenigma

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Zaephyr's sun will shine no more!
Aenigma second starbook
Told unforgotten secrets
Of prophets screaming terror
Of a last eclipse, of a comet's fall
Of a divine war fought between starlords
Of a black portal to unknown worlds

02. War Of The Universe

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Cosmic terror of the universe (beware!)
Mighty energies of mystic wars (angels call)
Soon will be born a mortal who will dare
Stars want it's fall

There between two astral worlds
Lie dark seeds of eternal war
Far beyond the silent holw where
Meteors paint a crystal storm
Through the eons without space
Where swallowed is the concept: time
Systems burning and colliding
Form the chaos, dark and light

Black holes, comets
Blazing thunders...
Fragments of the divine born

War of the universe
Of cosmic energies
Of phantoms riding
The genesis of all
Sons of the universe
Forever fighting
Through every age
Condemned to face this (long holy war...)

Parallax of suns create
Geometry of moons unborn
Spread the knowledge of the creatures
Between curious there and not
Comets' riders
Astral fighters
Heroes of celestral shores

War of the universe
Of cosmic enerfies
Of phantoms riding
The genesis of all
Sons of the universe
Forever fighting
Through every age
Condemned to face this (long holy war...)

Cosmic terror of the universe (beware!)
Mighty energies of mystic wars (angels call)
Soon will be born a mortal who will dare
Stars want it's fall

03. Rider Of The Astral Fire

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
There between the eight suns
Tight before the system Hazor
Shines the silent planet
Alkor Zephyr is its name
Surface made of magma
Of wide oceans and volcanos
Middle dusty regions where
No trace of life is found
From the space an ancient secret
Soon will mark this old world

In the southern region
Live the people of Iraklia
Descendants of peaceful
Ancient dynasty of Lor
Between these a warrior
Destined to become the victim
Victim of a prophecy
Now lost between the stars
He will be the astral rider
Prophecy's new fighter

From the dust
Of a time now forgotten
It will come the destroyer of worlds
As the legend of the ancients
Revealed with it's words
It will come from the bloody dimension
Where death is a present from god
He'll face the sacrificed one
The rider who owns...
Who owns the astral fire!

Arkan is the name of thunder
Prophecy's new fighter

From the dust
Of a time now forgotten
It will come the destroyer of worlds
As the legend of the ancients
Revealed with it's words
It will come from the bloody dimension
Where death is a present from god
He'll face the sacrificed one
The rider who owns...
Who owns the astral fire!

04. Zaephyr Skies' Theme

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
(Instrumental)

05. The Age Of Mystic Ice

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
She remembers only her wasted ship's name
The fallen giant Dark Comet S-10
Nothing more can she recall than her mind's death
While the black spheres
Are now moving around

Where the legend hides the truth
At the clash of sun and moon
And moved by magnetic fields
Comes the mystic last eclipse
It will ride the zephya plains
In the evil cosmic name
All the nightmares will soon rise
In the age of mystic Ice...
Mystic Ice!

Sania will be her new name now adopted
Word that means gift...
Golden gift of the gods
But her smile is lonely on this sad dark day
For even magic, the ice covers all

Where the legend hides the truth
At the clash of sun and moon
And moved by magnetic fields
Comes the mystic last eclipse
It will ride the zephya plains
In the evil cosmic name
All the nightmares will soon rise
In the age of mystic Ice...
Mystic Ice!

06. Prince Of The Starlight

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Star... light... shine!

They are coming out from the ice
From the furthest deepest caves
Bringing real pain to all...
Leading black death to this world...
Creatures born from ancient fears
Trapped until this new mystic eclipse...
This new eclipse!
Now they know the ancient legend
Was not ramblings of old fools
"...when the fireball will so fall
We'll see a black night without moon..."

From this godforsaken place
Where the enemy has no face
I call the mystic starlight
To enlight my planet damned
In this requiem for my land
My prince of the
Starlight...
Starlight!

In the tragic daily events
there's no place for their true love
love born from seed unknown...
Arkan's last pleasure and hope...
Cosmic journey of emotions
between hearts of distant space...
of distant time...
But the dark fight has to be won
if they want to live their lives
to defend their planet Zaephyr
from the threat of deathly ice

From this godforsaken place
Where the enemy has no face
I call the mystic starlight
To enlight my planet damned
In this requiem for my land
My prince of the
Starlight...
Starlight!

Rex tremendae majestis
qui salvando salvas gratis

07. Timeless Oceans

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Cold darkness reigns on all
It reigns in Arkan's soul
Wounded love...destined soon to fall
She stays in front of him
Caressed by howling wind
Enemy... victim of the unknown

But from her eyes so dark and shy love rides...
Flies so high beyond the stars
Not asking what or why
All happened from her sad coming
It just goes on flying high
To the waves of timeless oceans

He needs no words at all
But she wants him to know
Really what... her tortured mind still hides
The truth is even worse
A present with no hope,
Soon to end... so hard to accept

But from her eyes so dark and shy love rides...
Flies so high beyond the stars
Not asking what or why
All happened from her sad coming
It just goes on flying high
To the waves of timeless oceans

08. Demonheart

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Confutatis maledictis
Tragedy storms him
When demons spare her life
And all discover
She has a demonheart... demonheart

Feeling trapped in
With the slimy creatures,
Now close to being killed
She soon revealed her forgotten,
Sad past first to herself
They smelled her flesh ready
To be devoured but something happened
They moved away seeming to be frightened
Sparing her life
Shocked again she opened the gates
Of her tragic past and bloody images
Came back to her mind

She remembered the old mission
The dark comet's goal beyond the suns
...The flight through
...That black hole

Confutatis maledictis
Tragedy storms him
When demons spare her life
And all discover
She has a demonheart... demonheart

She lived again in some frames of sorrow
That evil journey planned
By the Arias' exploring section to find new worlds
But all that they found beyond their system
Was the black portal depths of oblivion
Came back to their world once opened it
Arkan and the other warriors who observed the scene
Could not feel the same way now about that girl

He moved to her taking her hand
Running fast away from his old friends
...All for her... he loved her...

Confutatis maledictis
Tragedy storms him
When demons spare her life
And all discover
She has a demonheart... demonheart

09. New Century's Tarantella

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Right beyond the frozen lake of sorrow
Wwhen they reached the ruins of Ayraklis
Losing their will and conscience
They fell down trapped in a deadly sleep
But not far the horns of hope were sounding
Raging moving every icy stone
There where their lying bodies
Were now surrounded by ten shy little Gorks

So the miracle saved them
And they woke up again
Thanks to secret and unknown old cures
Based on magic plants
Oh what wonderful creatures...
Only a few could see them
Only legends and old fairytales
Describing their cold far white reign

Warriors of the new century
Now rise
Hear the sad voice of starless nights
Warriors of the new century
Now rise
Cross the cosmic shores of mortal time

So that dream spoke to the silent warrior
Tising now from moons of black abyss
Drinking the brew of wild herbs
The special one's growing only on those hills
She was there already cured and happy
Able so to kiss his lips again
But sadly time was running out
And all those fools were going to find their way

So they thanked all those new friends
Leaving that mystic place
Setting off on their journey
Fleeing to reach a safer place
When they came to the white lakes
They could see behind them
That enormous and ancestral black moon
Screaming visual pain...true pain!

Warriors of the new century
Now rise
Hear the sad voice of starless nights
Warriors of the new century
Now rise
Cross the cosmic shores of mortal time

10. Prophet Of The Last Eclipse

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Requiem aeternam dona eis Domine:
Et lux perpetua luceat eis

Silent see of dark and terror
Spare the planet from this terror
White cold moon and Zaephyr's surface
Salva me, Salva me, Salva me...
I will swear I will call my hate
And eternal rage

She's ready to turn off her life's flame
To free all his people from hell
Nut no... he doesn't want to accept thos solution
Prefering to think of how he can escape
Hundreds of them are now coming
"Friend" is now an ancient word
There's no place left to hide in this white icy dungeon
No way to survive of the
Close shadows' fall
Shadows' fall...

And so she made her choice
Seeing Arkan fooling himself with lost hopes
She left her lover's arms
And crying she started to run away...
To them!

She looked at him praying... "forgive me!"
But he could nost answer at all
She was going to be killed by the
Mass of those riles
Now screaming and trying
To stop all their pain
'Cause she would have been surely tortured
By all of those religion's fools
He was then obliged
To shoot at his princess
To avoid the brutality of his now...
Dead old friends
She was now lying there
Dying in a lake of ice and blood
While he, embracing her
Was killing them with his red eyes

When her blood ran through the dark ice
The surface began to tremble
Quakes and thunders clashing everywher
This is zaephyr's tragic doomsday
What was unrevealed so even
To the prophet of the last eclipse...
last eclipse

She was now lying there
Dying in a lake of ice and blood
Oh no... why she's dead now...

No trace of life around
What happened to his ancient town?
He hopes it's not a dream
But it's the sun now lighting him
last eclipse

Silent seed of dark and terror
Spare the planet from hisd horror
White cold moon and Zaephyr's surface
Salva me, Salva me, Salva me...
I will swear I will call my hate
And eternal rage

Requiem aeternam dona eis Domine:
Et lux perpetua luceat eis

11. Dark Comet's Reign

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
And so unexpected came that sad mystic day
no words could have told what now was happening
It fell down quaking the Zaphyr's surface
blinding the eyes of a thousand dying men
who were looking at it falling right over them
What seemed to be an astral fireball
was hurling metal, a dark and giant starship
colliding with Zephyr's volcanic grey rocks...
grey rocks!

SPACE AND TIME
BURN IN THE SKIES
DARK COMET'S RIDE
KEEP YOUR FAITH
The day... it came
Dark comet's reign
Dark comet's reign!

After a long day
They reached the central hall
No trace of bodies
Only computers' voice
All seems so strange in that mysterious ship
Where are the people?
Could there be some survivors?
No life... but there are real feelings of death...
Suddenly mournful cries echo all around
There's one young girl hidden in the fathest corner
She's shocked and afraid but at least she's alive...
Alive!

Space and time
Burn in the skies
Dark comet's ride
Keep your faith
The day... it came
Dark comet's reign
Dark comet's reign!

12. Demoheart

Music & lyrics by Luca Turilli
Confutatis maledictis
Tragedy storms him
When demons spare her life
And all discover
She has a demonheart... demonheart

Feeling trapped in
With the slimy creatures,
Now close to being killed
She soon revealed her forgotten,
Sad past first to herself
They smelled her flesh ready
To be devoured but something happened
They moved away seeming to be frightened
Sparing her life
Shocked again she opened the gates
Of her tragic past and bloody images
Came back to her mind

She remembered the old mission
The dark comet's goal beyond the suns
...The flight through
...That black hole

Confutatis maledictis
Tragedy storms him
When demons spare her life
And all discover
She has a demonheart... demonheart

She lived again in some frames of sorrow
That evil journey planned
By the Arias' exploring section to find new worlds
But all that they found beyond their system
Was the black portal depths of oblivion
Came back to their world once opened it

Running fast away from his old friends
...All for her... he loved her...

Confutatis maledictis
