Vision
06:29
|
|||
Black of the night
Light of the moon
The oracle waits
Darkness takes his sight
Eyes roll back
Mind implodes
Vision comes clear
Prophecy of death
(Chorus)
It cannot be spoken
They can never know
He knows the secret
He knows the truth
(Bridge)
Beyond the horizon
Horrors he can only see
Prophecy of death
Coming for them all
(Interlude)
Given a choice
To warn his people
Instead he chooses
To abandon and flee
The sound of hooves
Distant, drawing closer
He makes his escape
As the enemy closes in
(Bridge)
Beyond the horizon
Horrors he can only see
Prophecy of death
Coming for them all
(Repeat Verse)
(Repeat Chorus)

Unspeakable
05:11
|
|||
The sounds of hooves
Echoing through the night
He knows what comes
He remembers his debt
Arrival on dark horses
Come to collect their due
None shall be spared
None shall be left behind
(Chorus)
Unspeakable; Hell unfolds; Before their eyes
Unthinkable; Dark demise; Heavy toll
Unspeakable; Cold dead hands; Death’s icy grip
Unthinkable; Forsaken eyes; Watch it burn
Lighting the village ablaze
Interlopers seek him out
Scouring through the wreckage
They know he lurks here
Promised many things
All have been broken
None shall be spared
None shall be left behind
They seek the old man
The one with the vision
They know where he wallows
They know his vile heart
Destroy his village
Surely he will come forth
None shall be spared
None shall be left behind
(Repeat Chorus)

Craven
06:27
|
|||
The enemy descends
His village is forsaken
The veil of night
Allows his escape
Fleeing through the forest
Towards the mountains high
This is his only hope
The horror will devour
(Bridge)
Watch the coward flee
Leaves his people to die
Climbing ever higher
The maze within the mountain
(Chorus)
The young one watches him go
She knows the path he takes
She can follow in her mind
The place where he will hide
Into the mountains
Is where the oracle flees
To the ancient caves
The endless labyrinth
Hours turn into days
Days turn into weeks
Climbs ever higher
Towards his salvation
Comes to the doorway
Opening into darkness
Down into the abyss
The ancient labyrinth
(Repeat Bridge)
The darkness surrounds him
Solace in the silence
The echo of his voice
Endless in the void
Time is all but lost
Trapped in this solitude
Consumed by the guilt
Down into the black
(Repeat Bridge)
(Repeat Chorus)

Truth
06:24
|
|||
Born to darkness
The girl has the gift
Seeing past and future
The girl has the sight
Speaking in tongues
Her mind is overrun
Her body gives way
As she weaves the tale
(Chorus)
The child knows the truth
She has seen the place
She will lead them there
The vision is her gift
(Bridge 1)
She spins the tale
The cowardice of the oracle
They will follow her
Into the labyrinth of death
She has seen the truth
Left them all to die
She will lead them there
(Bridge 2)
Revenge will be theirs
He will pay with his life
The oracle must die
The oracle must die
Through the forest
Over water and stone
Up into the clouds
She leads her people on
To the precipice
The mouth of the void
Into the black maze
She knows where he hides
(Repeat Chorus)

Eternal

He's found his way here
Threshold of the void
Infinite tunnels of black
Deep within the mountain
Descending into darkness
Binds itself to him
Accepting his fate
He's never coming back
(Chorus)
The last point of light fades away
Deeper and deeper he crawls into the cave
Let his people burn, this is his fate
Eternal isolation in the maze
Twisting through tunnels
Damp cold of the stone
He's found a safe refuge
He’ll die here alone
The memory of light
Has all but faded away
The last of his mind
His sanity begins to fray
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Darkness binds his mind
Trapped in this black cell
He knows they're coming for him
He knows his death draws near
Deeper into the caves
No place left to hide
Madness takes hold
Eternal isolation
(Repeat Chorus)

Vengeance
07:25
|
|||
Only a handful remain
They place their faith in her
A child with the gift
Her vision has lead them to
The place where he hides
Deep within the mountain
(Chorus)
Beyond the clouds
He’s left his people behind
They will have their vengeance
The few that remain
Have followed behind
The girl who promised vengeance
Wandering the maze
Deeper and deeper he goes
He knows what fate awaits him
In his mind’s eye
He sees what comes
The child has found him
(Repeat Chorus)
(Part II)
Descending into black
Closing in on him
Deeper into the caves
The child leads them on
They see their prey
Animal trapped in a cage
Begging for his life
The child asks him “why?”
He does not answer
Looks away in shame
Turns to face the void
He knows what he must do
Inching towards the edge
The child sees his intent
She says he is forgiven
But it's too late

Heiress of the Night
08:59
|
|||
Gazing down the chasm
Watches the oracle fall
Feels her heart break
She hears the darkness call
Voice of the ancient
Echoing in her mind
Whispering of the past
Warning of what comes
(Chorus)
Shadows speak to her
Voices from beyond
Guiding her thoughts
Images in her mind
Born under a dark moon
Now her fate is sealed
Reanimated by flame
Heiress of the night
Ritual of flame
Cast her body down
Radiant lights rises
From where she once laid
Rising from the pyre
Being from beyond
Daughter of the darkness
She leads her people on
(Middle Part)
I am timeless
I am the soil
I swirl through the air
I lurk beneath the sea
I have chosen you
I give you the vision
I bestow upon you
The past and the future
I am eternal
I am the night
I weave into your thoughts
I guide you back to me
Join me in the darkness
We shall rule forever
More powerful than all before
Your fate is now sealed
(Repeat Chorus x2)
