This is a non-story
One step back from The End
It’s not a tale of glory
It’s just a look ahead
The tailor of the idols
A thread without a needle
It’s the eternal cycle
That you can't find The Middle
If you try to describe it
The words bleed the paper
If you try with the might
You become an escaper
This is the eternal nihil
We cannot scan the writings
And after that it fills
Here is The Beginning
Before the eye
Before the time
Before the earth and the sky
Ante Caelum
Ante Infernum
Ante Deum est Aeternus
To understand this Tale
We have to start from here
Where the past and the future
Are nailed and far is near
Eternal life has come
The moment that we call
The origin of all
What ain’t started is done
No one knows what
No one knows why
We know that from the darkness
Something has carried lights
In timeless God was dead
Opening mouth of damn
He started to get fat
Devouring blinded men
Before the eye
Before the time
Before the earth and the sky
Ante Caelum
Ante Infernum
Ante Deum est Aeternus
It's time to talk about me, this is my story
I’m that first born, child who lost, grace and the glory
I am the one, I’m the star, who spread his fire
I am the son, who betrayed, coward and liar
Before the eye
Before the time
Before the earth and the sky
Ante Caelum
Ante Infernum
Ante Deum est Aeternus

Changing Star

I feel that heart throbs
It beats out of the corpse
Twilight wakes me up with a light in the sky
The tribe screams and consumes the holy sacrifice
The blood of our brothers does not quench us
It's time to drink the truth
Their flesh does not feed us
No time no more excuse
It’s time to breathe and take my hand
The ground is shaking you have to stand
Follow the sky’s light, it’s not that far
It’s not the sun, It’s the Changing Star
I see her eyes
Her gaze reminds me the sky
We’re gonna change our skin in feathers
In a new light our shadows will expand
And then we fly back to tribe together
We will be strangers in our land
Escape from the conclave
No longer be their slave
This is our journey my little sister
I'll never be a king upon the disaster
But if we ride together towards the aster
You will be queen and I will be your master
This time don't ask yourself how much pain and bane
But only what you will gain and reign in faith
The bowels, our sisters, don’t make us full
It's time to wet the root
Their bones cannot defend you
It’s time to breath and take my hand
The ground is shaking you have to stand
Follow the sky’s light, it’s not that far
It’s not the sun, It’s the Changing Star
Now we are out don’t leave me alone
The lair was putrid, a silent zone
Touching the emblem it will be hard
We have to fly to change our star.

Genesis

That day was gray
And full of human prayers
The shaman, our Father,
Extracts us from the Mother
Man’s blood became a river
And his heart paralyzed
The ritual was the key
For a new paradise
We are four, we are gold
We are the favorite sons
We are breeze, we are heat
We ride the astral winds
I will be the savior
I am your rod of freedom
I will fall down the sky like a burning star
I will light the way, I will tell the truth,
I am the key to salvation, I'm against the doom.
Next day was black
And it was full of deads
The demons, the devils
The ritual turns to Inferno
The blood of the battle is pure liberation
The blood of the sacrifice will flow for your damnation
We are four, we are gold
We are the favorite sons
We are breeze, we are heat
We ride the astral winds
Mother
I will be the savior
I am your rod freedom
I will fall down the sky like a burning star
I will light the way, I will tell the truth,
I am the key to salvation, I'm against the doom.

The Divine Order
06:26
|

|
His voice can set my fate
It’s time to change my name
The water falls on our bloodbound walking souls
We have escaped the grave
To live another day
In front of him we desert our family
Here's the Father, my false God
She's the Mother, a leashing pet dog
He's our Star, he's the firstborn
They are his brothers, immortal sons
He has come to cast his words on me
Signs engrave my body with black ink
My eyes will change, they turn into light
I’ll carry the truth in a new sacrifice
His word drawn on my skin becoming scroll
His light flashed on my eyes becoming orbs
Once the Father was just a mortal king
He has raped the Mother to plant the seed
Our blood is the lymph for the machine
His word was to cede our vitality
It's time to desert my family
They are four brothers, angels of murder
They gave birth to the Divine Order
Among his wonders he is the strongest
Now his name is: the Deserter
Here's the Father, my false God
She's the Mother, a leashing pet dog
He's our Star, he's the firstborn
They are his brothers, immortal sons.

Blackstone
04:24

The gates of hell
Are mouth of death
A putrid land
Invoke the end
Admire the gates
A flaming place
The demons grave
Unholy faith
God has confined you down
Timeless rain
God has denied you
Now wear the chains
The Mother gave birth
To the Abortion
Now you’re a
Chaos distortion
When the blood will be cold
Here then heart will turn to stone
Then the sons will be flames
They are demons hear their names
The gates are closed, it’s your rest
The fire is over your head
The devils take you and then
You are dead
There's no way to be back
You are just a shred of the stack
This is the place of the rack
You’re Ghast
Words carve the Blackstone
Your mark of sin
Your name is engraved
Then will be defeat
Your core’s a fragment
It's lost in space
Human sacrifice
Feeds the God’s faith
When the blood will be cold
Here then heart will turn to stone
Then the sons will be flames
They are demons hear their names
When the blood will be cold
Here then heart will turn to stone
Then the sons will be flames
They are demons hear their names.

We Are The Strangers
06:12

(Newborn, the forest is your home,
You’re in a secret place, without food
Cleanse your spirit with cold water
You’ll lose your human smell
You will not eat, not yet.)
Bodies of clay and blood
Stand in our way
Their stink of rot burns our breath
This place will be a grave
(You brother’s corpse is now on your tree
The branches are his mortuary
He is desiccated, lifeless
You will not eat, not yet)
Strangers are blood red snakes
Their tongues of flame
One twists the sister tight
The other hisses me to die
Keep your eyes in mine
We knew the danger
I bleed at your side
He’ll get his vengeance
We’re gonna win this fight
We are his rangers
I’ll try until I die
We are the Strangers
(Your brother is in your lair
Drowned mummy in salt water
The Shaman took off his skin
The belly is open, empty
Now smoke your brother
You will not eat, not yet)
My half is tied to one of them
His tentacles like chains
The other turns to me and casts
Black words of dying faith
(Your brother is on the altar
His smell inebriates the forest
His crispy skin tempts the beasts
He’s ready but you will not eat
Not yet)
I have the power of bear
My hooves are that of deer
I have the bite of wolf
My gaze is that of hawk
Keep your eyes in mine
We knew the danger
I bleed at your side
He’ll get his vengeance
We'll win this fight
We are his rangers
I’ll try until I die
Now we are the Strangers
With the rise of the new sun
Your sacrifice saves us
With the shining of the moon
You will stop this war of gloom
With the coming of the day
You will lose your rotten faith
With the arrival of the night
You will feed the final sacrifice
(Now put on the sacred mask
The power of nature rises
You are the Giant
It’s time to become one of us
It’s time to eat and you will do it)
Your belly opens in a vent
It spits the real truth
Don't leave me, It’s not the time to rest
It's time to tell me what to do
Keep your eyes in mine
We knew the danger
I bleed at your side
He’ll get his vengeance
We're gonna win this fight
We are his rangers
I’ll try until I die
We are the Strangers.

The Dragon And The Sword
05:56

The sun shines on his head
His book collects the essence
The flaming hand is here
His name is Uriel
The roar of trumpets rises
It’s the sound of the end
Colossal is his wingspread
Here is Raphael
I’ve tried to enlighten men
They are facing the dark
In this void I'm the damned
I hear my brothers march
My feathers turn to scales
As my fire burns my house
The Dragon and the Snakes
It's time for the showdown
And it was battle in heaven
I soiled my soul with blood of my blood
I lost my place among the sky
I was cast down on earth
Mother I'll break your chains, I'll do it someday
Father, I’ll fight the sky, no longer your child
Brothers, I cry today, in this embrace
Open the gates, chase out the traitor of faith
Sword hovers on the horizon
It is his coat of arms
His armor shining bright
The balance is his art
The last brother is here
He’s also against me
The battle’s coming to an end
It’s time for Michael
Evil, Dragon
Demon, Devil
They closed the heaven’s gate
My brothers stand in my way
A voice invades my soul
Before I come to the fall
Mother I'll break your chains, I'll do it someday
Mother, sing your words, I’m your son, I will return
Fire and blood, the black stone will open the door
Blood and Flames, the shiny light will open the gate
Fire and blood, the black stone will open the door
Blood and Flames, the shiny light will open the gate.

For A New God
05:58
|

I asked you to take my hand
You embraced me in this madness
Through the mountains and through the plains
We have discovered our fate
I asked you to follow my footsteps
You have turned the path into a dance
Through the swamp, across the clouds
Your cry is like rain, It’s so loud
You ask me to raise the blade
To leave you here in this glade
For a new mother, for a new God
I hear your words: “Get my blood”
Now you ask me to take your heart
Squeeze it until it dries up
For a new father, for a new God
I hear your scream: “I’m your love”
Forgive me if you can my dear
We have chosen the path of sin and
There’s no way back without fear
Talk to me if you can my love
So that I hear your voice once more
And cry all the tears
I asked you to warm our nights
You lighted fire in our sites
Through the islands and across the forest
I grant your final imploring
For a new father
For a new mother
For our brothers
The new empire
For her desire
I am another
I’m in the mire
I lost the fire
I asked you, you to watch my back
And you fought face to face with the enemies of the men
I asked you to me make a sense of this
And with your sacrifice you have made me a new king
I drop the blade on the ground
Now that I feel our blood bound
For a new father, for a new God
Where’s your voice? I come home
Sister you asked me to take your heart
Squeeze it until it dries up
For a new mother, for a new God
Please forgive me, I’m your love.

Me inside this big hive
You outside world despite
I brought you the light
You are walls of this hall
I dream falls and see ghouls
I walked under the eye
Through the land of day and night
I have seen time go by
I dress the colors shining bright
My home, my refuge is now my room of death
The tribe, the Demiurge, they want to slit my chest
Their kiss, their caress are now stones on my flesh
The way I entered was just a way to rest
In this gateless fortress
They are holes on my core
You stay home with black stones
I followed the morning star
Seeing that light that lies so far
Far from home, far from all
For the truth i heed the call
This is my fate, my cave is now my grave
I bear a name that wastes a new true faith
The tribe with rage drags my shape to the
Stage has a frame that looks the eternal gates
Their stones, their dances are sins that stain your soul
That glare, that passage is not an open door
They are the signs that trace the way to go
The way I travel is the way to the floor
In this gateless stronghold.
My home, my refuge is now my room of death
The tribe, the Demiurge, they want to slit my chest
Their kiss, their caress are now stones on my flesh.
The way I entered was just a way to rest
Their stones, their dances are sins that stain your soul
That glare, that passage is not an open door
They are the signs that trace the way to go
The way I travel is the way to the floor
In this gateless stronghold
In this gateless fortress.
