Protected
Invisible limit
Impenetrable dome
Always Evas
Always Mother
Unspeakable Wrath

Their defense shields them
Deep questioning
Are you defending yourself from the world
Or is the world protecting itself
Knowing
Of you?

(Intro) Shields

Hiss of air
Wind gets dense
Red star above
Blinking, warning
Something supernatural
From sky... awakens

Take my hand!
Protect me, brother!
Fragile embrace
Face the destruction!
Take my hand!
Red star... rising!

Bodies in air
Chaos spinning
Screams on wind
Muffled "no's"
Red dust rising
Dorsal fury
Crying in lights
Brutal whirlwind!

Take my hand!
Protect me, brother!
Fragile embrace
In awe of destruction!
Take my hand!
Red star... shining!

when it stops...
silence enters...
intact circle...
your tranquil gaze...
Fateful calm.
we are two... chosen ones...
(united...)

Slit eyes...
Golden...
old eyes sizing us up...
Terrified.
Claims us...
in superstition...
Take my hand...
Red star... fading...

BOND

I will rest...
In water... blood... and mud...
At last...
I will rest...

This is why I'm vile
This is why I ignored
All the cost
All the pain
That I caused...

I won't ask for forgiveness, children...
I did what I did...

What I´ve done?
For a greater good?
What I´ve done?
See my strength! See the flood!
What I´ve done?
Nothing else matters!
What I´ve done?

See the inversion!
The river runs in the sky!
Like fish swimming
In my aerial flood!
The boats fall!
Shatter on the ground!
Men melt... like beetles...
Beneath my sandals!

What I´ve done?
For my obsession!
What I´ve done?
Such indifference!
What I´ve done?
Nothing makes a difference!
What I´ve done?

Until the witch...
Red as the dawn...
Shows me her talisman...
The same stone... that once...
Marked me as a sinner...

The dry thud
breaks my skull...

What I´ve done?
For a greater good!
What I´ve done?
See the flood!
What I´ve done?
Nothing else matters!
What I´ve done?

But I can still see...
The river fall like time...
I was searching for her...

The great mother...
The great goddess...
Who holds me...
At the end...
At last...
I will rest...
