Niviane - The Ruthless Divine [Full Album]

Lyrics to The Ruthless Divine [Full Album] by Niviane

Track List: 01. League of Shadows Like thieves in the night Collectors of lives Within the dark they strike unnoticed Each trained how to fight In the absence of light Their methods lie cloaked in silence

Souls who’ve lost their way With nowhere to go
 Have now found a place Among the league of shadows Each masked in disguise Speaking only lies Bearing the mark of the order Skilled to conceal and hide And if need be die Many a man they’ve dispatched to their maker Souls who’ve lost their way With nowhere to go
 Have now found a place Among the league of shadows The league of shadows Among the league of shadows Dismissed as ghosts or dreams The gatherer of screams Stalking reapers with a sole purpose A price to be paid Passage to the grave Death without a face walks among us Souls who’ve lost their way With nowhere to go
 Have now found a place Among the league of shadows Masters of the blade With names now unknown Have now found a place Among the league of shadows 02. Crown of Thorns Always playing the martyr Devoid of power on a solitary throne Commanding unheard orders Defiant and alone Impressive no longer Enlightened allies have left you in the cold Abandoned and delusional It’s just you against the world Welcome to your nightmare Now exposed and waging war Welcome to your nightmare You’re no messiah in a crown of thorns Lost in denial Pitiful and entangled in distress Trapped in the 11th hour …much too late to confess Potential paths to freedom Sturdy bridges now charred black and collapsed Each one a sentence Set ablaze by your own hands Welcome to your nightmare Now exposed and waging war Welcome to your nightmare You’re no messiah in a crown of thorns Deceptive and charming A well-played disguise The spider is dying Caught up in its own web of lies Plays the martyr Now exposed Waging war A crown of thorns Always playing the martyr You’ve made your bed Now lie in it Welcome to your nightmare Now exposed and waging war Welcome to your nightmare You’re no messiah in a crown of thorns Always playing the martyr Wear your crown of thorns 03. Dreams Crash Down Feeling your life has derailed off its tracks Left alone to sift through the aftermath Not one to give up without a fight Even if there’s no hope in sight When your dreams come crashing down And you’ve found you’ve been misled And the only soothing sounds …are the demons in your head Once an optimist fire burning bright Now a clouded view of a dim light That silver lining you’re searching for Has become a noose around your throat When your dreams come crashing down And you’ve found you’ve been misled And the only soothing sounds …are the demons in your head When your dreams come crashing down And you’ve found you’ve been misled And the only soothing sounds …are those demons in your head When your dreams come crashing down And you’ve found you’ve been misled And the only soothing sounds …are the demons in your head 04. The Ruthless Divine I, the malevolent one, Born of a God With a violent temperament
 Have seen many a kingdom brought unto ruin A site most decadent Those daring fools that rise to face me Crushed beneath charging hordes Under my thrall their heroes fall By the bidding of my sword I command all that you see and you will believe Call me master, fall to your knees I am he who trespassed time And passes judgement on life This world is mine I stand proud on sacred ground As your world burns down The ruthless divine I alone allow you to breathe Or your heart to cease This world is mine Under my might my empire thrives Such a glorious sight The ruthless divine No army of mortal men nor weapons forged will impede my course Behold my glory and quiver before me Bear witness to my force Fear my call for I’m the master of all My power spreading like fire Those who restrain will in turn feel the pain As their souls I devour I command all that you see and you will believe Call me master, fall to your knees I am he who trespassed time And passes judgement on life This world is mine I stand proud on sacred ground As your world burns down The ruthless divine I alone allow you to breathe Or your heart to cease This world is mine Under my might my empire thrives Such a glorious sight The ruthless divine The ruthless divine I am he who trespassed time And passes judgement on life This world is mine I stand proud on sacred ground As your world burns down The ruthless divine I alone allow you to breathe Or your heart to cease This world is mine Under my might my empire thrives Such a glorious sight The ruthless divine 05. Fires from the Sky Orphaned children Absentee fathers visit no more Neglectful Earth mother Vanished with the seasons long ago There are no more Gods choosing sides Left alone in desperate times No more fires in the sky In their chariots of light No more fires in the sky No more glory from on high Will they return to reclaim this place? No more fires in the sky Only to discover a dying race Struggling siblings Erupting into a world at war Will they return? Just to mourn a planet dead and cold Blurred are the lines between wrong and right Only remnants of burning times No more fires in the sky In their chariots of light No more fires in the sky No more glory from on high Will they return to reclaim this place? No more fires in the sky Only to discover a dying race No more fires in the sky In their chariots of light No more fires in the sky No more glory from on high Will they return to reclaim this place? No more fires in the sky Only to discover a dying race 06. Fallen from Elysium Curse your maker, my forsaker I raise my fists defiantly Judicator, am I the traitor? Vindication for this abandoning Elusive trickster, you mocking jester Twister of my sanity World enslaver, my betrayer Revenge I cry for your treachery
 I’m not the sign they’ve been searching for Stranded alone to wander your Eden With more knowledge than they could hold Yet I know no answers Once a soldier now a martyr
 Treated as a common thief The infernal, vile blasphemer Many a name cast upon me I’m not the sign they’ve been searching for Stranded alone to wander your Eden With more knowledge than they could hold Yet I know no answers I’ve fallen from Elysium Fallen… cast out I’ve fallen from Elysium Fallen… I’ve fallen From Elysium Your precious creatures I vow in anger All will share in my misery Foolish mortals enjoy your spoils Of his love you’re unworthy
 I am the truth and do refuse To serve among these lesser beings I’ll be the dark within their hearts Each fragile will shall bend to me I’m not the sign they’ve been searching for Stranded alone to wander your Eden With more knowledge than they could hold Yet I know no answers I’ve fallen from Elysium Fallen… cast out I’ve fallen from Elysium Fallen… I’ve fallen 07. Forgotten Centurion Forgotten centurion casualty of war Heading towards the evening sun trying to find my way back home The sun blinds my eyes and my feet are heavy and worn A wound in my side and a long perilous road Forgotten centurion still so far to go Barely enough strength just to drag my sword I’m running out of time and my body’s moving slow At the crossroads of life not sure which way I’ll go Lost in the black avoiding attack with a devil on my back Energy’s waning; slowly dying; my home I’ll never reach Gods’ mercy I seek, will they answer me, send roman cavalry Soldier forsaken, I‘m forgotten, centurion Forgotten centurion casualty of war No coins for the ferryman, no penance for my soul With tears in my eyes I push myself onward I’ve got death on my mind, and more regrets than I can afford Lost in the black avoiding attack with a devil on my back Energy’s waning; slowly dying; my home I’ll never reach Gods’ mercy I seek, will they answer me, send roman cavalry Soldier forsaken, I‘m forgotten, centurion 08. Niviane Mysterious beauty cloaked in black, brier’s mane, glowing hellfire A devious captivating glance draws me towards desire Caught in her spellbinding trance, she longs for knowledge and power In return her heart for my sorcery, just promise you’ll love me forevermore I’ve been asleep longer than you’ll know But I’m awakened now I’m lost within your thrall… Niviane My lust leads to my downfall… Niviane My heart led astray by your call… Niviane A fool forsaken evermore… Niviane Tangled twisted rooted lies, such a cunning storyteller They mask the darkness that you hide, sinful schemes cloaked in pleasure Defenseless against your spells am I, you treacherous wicked charmer Much too late and too blind to see, just promise you’ll love me forevermore I’ve been asleep longer than you’ll know But I’m awakened now I’m lost within your thrall… Niviane My lust leads to my downfall… Niviane My heart led astray by your call… Niviane A fool forsaken evermore… Niviane I can’t believe I’ve been betrayed by a lovely face Covertly displaced and erased I’m lost within your thrall… Niviane My lust leads to my downfall… Niviane My heart led astray by your call… Niviane A fool forsaken evermore… Niviane 09. Psychomanteum A longing for life once lost Relived at any cost Beyond the world of dreams A glimpse of forbidden scenes Calling the dead The sacred words read My own blood I shed A crime against nature An unholy plan Our maker be damned Mystic hologram My love, my specter Under the darkness of night A hint of candlelight Sights beyond belief The air hangs thick with grief A dust-filled empty room A haunting familiar tune A splash of her perfume For the past we yearn Psychomanteum Pray for a return Psychomanteum Calling the dead The sacred words read My own blood I shed A crime against nature An unholy plan Our maker be damned Mystic hologram My love, my specter A rendezvous with the past Through the looking glass A surreal moment of peace Not another moment bereave For the past we yearn Psychomanteum Pray for a return Psychomanteum Two heart’s now reborn Psychomanteum May they mourn no more Psychomanteum 10. Sinking Ships Alla deriva tutto da solo Due luci di passaggio da Rispecchiare anime vagare Perso nel buio della notte La contro la marea di tempo Due cuori, due Percorsi L’amore di uno Pounding waves of burden a silent eulogy Circling seas of sadness whirlpools of misery Navigating in seclusion so many wasted tears Sinking in the confusion mourning their faded years
 Sinking ships in the night, a pair of fading lights Battle worn vessels just passing by Adrift all alone, symmetric wandering souls Longing for a place that feels like home
 Sinking ships in the night, a pair of fading lights Each fighting against the tides of time Aged sails torn and tattered from a long harsh journey All hope now lays in shatters still wanting to believe Searching for something better than what came before
 Reaching into the darkness each needing so much more Sinking ships in the night, a pair of fading lights Battle worn vessels just passing by Adrift all alone, symmetric wandering souls Longing for a place that feels like home
 Sinking ships in the night, a pair of fading lights Each fighting against the tides of time Gale force winds are blowing towards uncertainty
 In search of calmer waters, a future beyond reach In the revolving blackness their pasts lurk below Parting them ever further caught in its undertow Sinking ships in the night, a pair of fading lights Battle worn vessels just passing by Adrift all alone, symmetric wandering souls Longing for a place that feels like home
 Sinking ships in the night, a pair of fading lights Each fighting against the tides of time Adrift all alone, Symmetric wandering souls Trying to avoid the coming storm 11. Like Lions The ground shaking like thunder In the distance a deafening cry Their archers take aim and fire One thousand arrows blacking out the sky Their hordes are rushing forward Cold steel crashes in from all sides Battle born in blood and fire Today is as good as any to die Hold the line don’t falter Shoulder to shoulder we stand strong Today die no martyr Brothers in arms The next surge we encounter Mercenaries and war dogs Dire odds severely outnumbered For each one of us 20 of them must fall Hold the line don’t falter Shoulder to shoulder we stand strong Today die no martyr Brothers in arms With swords in hand we make our stand And we will fight like lions We will prevail or dine in Hell It’s our destiny We will turn the tide when shields collide And we will fight like lions Oh the tales they’ll tell heroic hails Throughout history They failed to break our center All positions remain fortified Our enemies retreat in terror Command’s given; leave not one of them alive Hold the line don’t falter Shoulder to shoulder we stand strong Today die no martyr Brothers in arms With swords in hand we make our stand And we will fight like lions We will prevail or dine in Hell It’s our destiny We will turn the tide when shields collide And we will fight like lions Oh the tales they’ll tell heroic hails Throughout history We will fight like lions
