01. Trinity

Right on the eve of battle,
Next to the battleground
Two brothers stood there quietly
Expecting yet the third

Legend tells us of the brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are unified

Once for truth and once for wisdom,
Prophecies and visions fade
Once for love, once for horror
Fading in the night

This is not the truth, but not a lie
It is no wisdom but a...

Right on the eve of battle,
Next to the battleground
The third was striding to his kin
United once again

Legend tells us of the brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are unified

Never linger
Soon you will find the way
Through the never
Sadness will go astray
Lead the way
Harvest the day
Soon you will find your way

Once for truth and once for wisdom,
Prophecies and visions fade
Once for love, once for horror
Fading in the night

Never linger
Soon you will find the way
Through the never
Sadness will go astray
Lead the way
Harvest the day
Soon you will find your way

Trice denied, still believing
Standing up to the world
Three will stand after all is gone
The Holy Brotherhood

Right on the edge of battle,
Deep in the battleground
The Trinity is striking back
United once again

Legend tells us of the brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are unified

The legend tells of brothers
Of the Holy Trinity
All for one and once for always
They are one!

02. Strings Of Fate

Silent the vacuum of time claims all our souls but one
Guild of thieves, master of mages, no-one hears the call

Louder than the one before the greatest king proclaims
Still the lubricant of Toki prophesies the fall

The gods call out to find a hero
Will he find out the new tomorrow?

For now, I bleed
My destiny
Shall I succeed
Will I be freed?

The never, forever,
Desires more
My body, is mourning
But I keep trying

This is not what I felt
In my mind I am free
This is not goodbye

This is my quest, but no-one knows
If I will do what I'm supposed to

The great walls of time and space are closing everywhere
There on the highway to nothing no-one seems to care

Where can I stay
This mournful day?

Whom can I pray
What's there to say?

Evermore the days are counting selfless suicide
Never will the gods be ready for the genocide

Towards our fate we run together
Forever denying the never
Surrounding us

Memories will keep the greatest
Alive in our minds, in our thoughts
Surrounding us

03. Curse Of The Wise

Ever had
A memory
You wished
It could come true?

The memory
So close to me
Will never fade
It's how I paid
The gift of sight
Vision of light
My Master's will
The dream fulfilled

In this tragedy
My only friend is a lie

The thoughts
Are all surrounded
By darkest clouds
I sing to

My soul reveals
It's a battle
I could never win
I should lose

Never believed
For none they grieved
Do they not know
We do not bow
The nightmares last (but)
Stay in the past
Why do they taunt
These thoughts I haunt

Our only dream
As we have seen
Will be revealed
Our fate be healed
No-one to say
The only way
The one of tears
Our greatest fears

Some day they will see
The curse that lies on me is real
For this day I yearn
Their innocence will burn with me

It's as we have foreseen
Our hands will be washed clean of guilt
In time we will be freed
For no-one else we'll bleed this lie

When silent screams resound
Our fear will be unbound at last
For this day we yearn
Their innocence will burn with me

For this day we yearn
Their innocence will burn with me

04. Forever Me

It was for you
All that was true
For this ending shall not come

In my heart you belong
Makes me weak, makes me strong
Feels like dying though I belong

Fear all the thoughts I had
My memories became more than that
My tears keep on flowing
The wind keeps on blowing
Forever you are

Deep within it is so clear
Where it begins can't we just be near
I keep on searching
The next thing that's lurking
Forever you are me

All I have now
Is my sad cry
Should I wonder what shall come

All the lies beyond the secret's fading
My own mind becomes a dreadful trap
For you came to me strangely behaving
Maybe all of this is to forget

Fear all the thoughts I had
My memories became more than that
My tears keep on flowing
The wind keeps on blowing
Forever you are

Deep within it is so clear
Where it begins can't we just be near
I keep on searching
The next thing that's lurking
Forever you are me

All the lies beyond the secret's fading
My own mind becomes a dreadful trap
For you came to me strangely behaving
Maybe all of this is to forget

All the lies beyond the secret's fading
Maybe all of this is to forget
For you came to me strangely behaving
My own mind becomes a dreadful trap

05. Once Upon A Lifetime

Once upon a lifetime
Never far away
Once upon a lifetime
It leads you astray

On your path to glory
It takes you by surprise
On your path to glory
You will meet your demise

How
Should I
Know?
What I will see?
What I will think?
What I'll be feeling?

Should I embrace this vision
Should I despise these thoughts?
Should I despise this vision
Should I embrace these thoughts?

I will acknowledge your voice
I will concede
I will acknowledge your voice
I will pay heed

(Can't see, is there)
No
Way for me?
Can't I flee?
Am I
Free?
I can't see...
Won't I be?

Is there
No
Way for me?
Can't I flee?
Am I free?
I can't see...
Won't I be?

I am!

Dreams unfold as days go by
And stars stand brightly in the sky
I will never say goodbye
'cause this will last until I die

I will embrace this vision
I won't despise these thoughts
I won't despise this vision
I will embrace these thoughts

I will acknowledge your voice
I will concede
I will acknowledge your voice
I will pay heed

06. Running Together

Quietly but always watching
Hidden in the night
Eagerly waiting the morrow
Hidden from your sight

Spotted only in your dreams
But nevertheless there
Lurking back from out your vision
Never seem to care

Repelled only by a knife
Their kind will bring you fear
Follow not their song in darkness
it Leads away from here

Female faeries, frightful horrors
Riding on the storm
Luring travellers away
In their hideous form

They are forever
They're standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

They are forever
They're standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

Semblance of a poor old woman
In ash-coloured clothes
Apron thrown across the shoulder
But it's you she loathes

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside

They are forever
They're standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

They are forever
They're standing side by side
Running together
And staying out of sight

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside

Now too late to cry
Out in the meadows we will fly
Running away to wonder why
We die inside

07. Lost In A Dream

I saw a thing I could never believe
A distant sight I would like to retrieve
It is a vision my mind will set free
If I could remember how it came to be

The image is fading, it withers away
I can't be sure that I'll take grasp some day
Deep in my heart I know that's what I seek
But somehow I wonder, to whom does it speak

Memories lost in a nightmare of pain
Images screaming you're going insane
Never believed in it till it was gone
It is as a dreamworld, the magic undone

It never strayed my thoughts my soul's so weak
What I despised most is now what I seek
My heart still craving for that I once held
Hopelessly longing for all this to end

Hear you call my name
Am I dreaming?
It's always the same
Though I know
That I lost myself
Tonight

Maybe the truth shall reveal
When I sleep
Visions attack in my head
And so I weep

Calling the light from within
It might be cruel
Lately no vision's the same
Whom do I fool

All the lights might seem the same
Though it's as they call my name
Feel like something's watching me go down fall in a trap

Seek the world out for a chance
But it seems to miss the glance
This is harder than I thought

Can't you see what's on my mind
All the visions fall behind
Try to catch them but it's like I'm trying to escape

All the anger that I gain
Makes me yearn to be insane
This is not my state of mind

08. Helpless

See me wandering, in the darkest deep of shadows
The world above so bright, my dearest enemy
Where once lived happiness, where sorrow couldn't bear
But I am drowning here, too far to even care

See me wandering, alone and cold and bare
My deepest memories, no grief, no sadness there
It's dark and cold in here, in this forgotten lair
Loneliness prevails, how could I ever dare

I can't pray for mercy, 'cause there's no soul to hear
So I stay here, helpless, in my remains of sense
There's no place for regret, 'cause only I am here
So I remain helpless, behind this solid fence

Hear me muttering, of long forgotten times
My head is bursting, with long and brutal chimes
Still can see the past, a road enclosed by limes
But haunting through my head, are black, distorted rhymes

Hear me muttering, about my dreadful debt
I can't remember why, so long my soul has slept
Immortal, my regret, endless have I wept
No tears will wash away, the secret I have kept

I can't pray for mercy, 'cause there's no soul to hear
So I stay here, helpless, in my remains of sense
There's no place for regret, 'cause only I am here
So I remain helpless, behind this solid fence

Can't you see why I am weeping,
can't you see that I repent?
No one knows the pain that I feel,
no one knows just what I meant

Years will come and years will pass but
I can't leave this unlocked cell
Leaves will grow and leaves will fall but
endless is this living hell

There's no soul that lives in darkness,
no soul knows eternal pain but
My soul will forever perish,
evermore 'till I'm insane

I can't pray for mercy, 'cause there's no soul to hear
So I stay here, helpless, in my remains of sense
There's no place for regret, 'cause only I am here
So I remain helpless, behind this solid fence
