30 days
of siege and warfare
on a conquest for rome

30 days
and the spirit fades
will to fight drained by endless war

are we right
is this ours to take
should we stop and fall back

or should we stay
for one final day
and put it all to one last attack

----------------

look for a sign
a sigil on high
a sign from the gods to be bold

scarlet cuts the sky
the birth of legends is foretold

----------------

marching through the night
constantinople bound to fall
heroes never die
stay the line, conquer them al;

throngs of golden riders
bathed in crimson light
guided by the blood red sky

----------------

cosmic fortune
the moon is stained
with the blood of our foes

a welcome portent
affirming faith
we go with god to make this our home

the crescent
rests in a field of red
our flag alight in the sky

while we are blessed
they see a warning
and know theyre all gonna die

is this the way its meant to be
the subtle feel of dread

the background hum of suffering
avert your eyes and look ahead




mind is racing
through another day
stalled at top speed
nervous calm

chemical, behavior?
whos to say
find a way to carry on



is there a way to be set free
to take an easy breath

but would i even still be me
to change the chemisty as set

PAINNNN

storms in the night
cosmic, exploding
im shrinking, absorbed in the quantum ballet

forming so bright
worlds open before me
as intrinsic light fades away


i dream im falling
i scream but
im not scared

i know ill find the truth
i know im on my way

i cant keep going
to find out
its not fair

i want to go beyond


same every time
im a bit on a circuit
need to grow smaller, theres more i can see

chasms grow tight
im too wide, its not working
content always just out of reach


i dream im falling
i scream but
im not scared

i know ill find the truth
i know im on my way

i cant keep going
to find out
its not fair

i want to go beyond

i want to go beyond

i want to go beyond

to disappear

Go Beyond - Temnere

these twenty years,
my precious bride,
have been so hard
since you have died
but in my search
ive chanced a trick of sorcery

a secret chant
told to rewind
another chance
to live our lives
rewrite the story
of our forgone tragedy



two decades of torture later
ill steal the tome, anything to save her
there is no price too great

now the power is in my hands
i wont make my mistakes, i can take it all back
have a chance at a happier fate


forbidden knowledge paired
with desperation dares
to make the world anew



a warning sent 
from up on high
"the scroll you took
the devil scribed.
promises heaven
but will surely open hell"

though fallen on
my deafen ears
they told the truth
or so they feared
but its too late
for ive already cast the spell



no nothing can stop me now
i will see you again i do not care how
its selfish but what can i say

fate ripples and chaos rises
reality cedes. yes! a divine light is
dawning a brighter new day



now in the pitch of night
conjuring blinding light
to make the world anew

summoning arcane might
to set the timeline right
to find my way to you




fighting the waves
defiant, unyielding
its irreversable
or so they say

fate's will be damned
hear my call - i am coming!

ill move the sands of time to save you now
to never say goodbye

another day awake at night
empty bellies, minds affright
stocks are low, the cattle dead
crops are barren, mouths unfed


ONE MORE CHANCE LEFT
to take the men and go
to find enough to live
to just survive the snow

HOIST THE MAINSAIL
load up what we can tow 
we cant afford to fail
take to the sea and hope

what awaits us?
fates will takes us
to the great unknown


ho! with our brothers in arms we set sail
for the glory we'll write our own tale
our destiny awaits


[[but soon
a bitter wind
guided by a cruel fate]]



forty days we journeyed through the open ocean
through scorching sun and chilling haze
beaten, battered by the path set forth before us
but we wont stop til we have fortune in our gaze

sailing north i see a ship on the horizon
sound the horn, the battles on
for the lives we'll spend today they'll say to our sons
they died as heroes, now they ride in babylon

what awaits us?
fates will takes us
to the great unknown


ho! with our brothers in arms we set sail
for the glory we'll write our own tale
our destiny awaits

as we travel through night by the flame
to make proud those who bear our name
our destiny awaits

Destiny Awaits

rampaging worlds away, a whisper
a glimpse of things to come in time
a chance of desolation

but as the time passed, growing nearer
it wont sink in, we need to hide
but theres a trepidation


no reason now to stoke their fear
we'll wait and see


i saw the blight on the horizon
but panic festers in the gloom
it just seemed right to calm them

i undersold, a soothing lie told
it caused a vector site to bloom
the ones who trust me, condemned


and now reality is here
oh god what have i done


truth of its severity
preceeds the lie i sold
all the suffering i could have spared
multiplied manifold

now a harbinger of death
i only wanted everyone to be okay
now im the one to blame

for a world in flames

final chorus layered bg vox:
i said itd all be fine
i said itd pass in time
i didnt know id have such sway

i thought theyd come around
thought we'd be safe and sound
i didnt know it'd be this way

In Flames

experiment
we changed, rebuilt
but now its gone awry

our conduit;
the pathway in has failed

bring him back
its time to make
some changes to his mind

compelled to serve
he'll come to us again



it seems ages ago
that we found you among the stars
gave you new life for the cause




we trusted, sent
you back to earth
a second chance at life

the cruelty shown
deserves a reprimand

your powers just
an oversight
"a lesson learned", i lied

correct our error,
just a slight of hand



now the tables have turned
and your focus will shift inside
live with the pain in your mind



 

feast on your misery
you reap what you have sown
you will eat your words
"now im a god, you know"

suffer in bondage
as my window in
to see what makes a man alive
all of your pain amplified

10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2.....

dreaming of a better time
my imagination wanders to the skies
what awaits us in the stars
is it utopia in space?

[[or just another chance
to be indentured]]


beyond the fantasy
nature of man, revealed


to this fate ive been resigned
export our greed across the corners of the galaxy
we'll find
no long awaited brand new start
their chokehold wont just dissapear


[[they'll send the skint to be their
coal canaries]]


even in fantasy
cynics anxiety

(10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2.....)
as we hurtle forward
as the rockets climb
(10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2.....)
progress marches on
only widens the divide

can we exist as equals
im losing faith in humankind

can we exist as equals
or will the old ways never die
theyll never die
theyll never 
die

Cynic's Anxiety

policy bought by execs
sent to dc with blank checks
to be a living atm

why do they seem to hate us
convinced of their covalence
but they need us, we dont need them

yet still we love a story
to bathe the men in glory
who write our futures on their dime

that they may deign to help us
with pocket change, so selfless
somehow a blessing not a crime

but can you blame the ones who do believe
fallen victim to the corporate creed
betters who control our destiny
success conflated with morality

another day another sin
the vicious cycle starts again
the broadcast of our downfall
right before our eyes
(straight into our minds)

we cant deny weve gone astray
when we just choose to look away
complicit in decline 


dream of a brighter future
not just a minor suture
but thinking big is such a chore

our meager wants are answered
by vitriol and slander
'its not the time to ask for more!'

demanding supplication
threat of alienation
'yeah youre with us or youre with them'

'we promise we'll do better
all friends in the fair weather
sit down, shut up, dont ask again!'


but can you blame the ones who do believe
taught through relentless conditioning
to read a patterned lack of empathy
as benign points of stochasticity

another day another sin
the vicious cycle starts again
the broadcast of our downfall
right before our eyes
(straight into our minds)


we cant deny weve gone astray
when we just choose to look away
complicit in decline 
screaming this is fine

this is fine
screaming this is fine
the epitaph we'll leave behind
yeah this is fine
