Tracklist: 01. Wanderer's Prayer Earth, give me strength Skies, lend your range Moon, lend your light Stars, guide my way Earth, give me strength Skies, lend your range Moon, lend your light Stars, guide my way 02. Gods Of Debauchery Ash to ash, dust to dust End at last, time is done We reveled in the starlight, we lay beneath Lucifer's gaze We were here, destroying, creating Taking what was and wasn't ours as we pleased We loved carelessly Sweat and pleasure exploding in a decadent vortex We wrote the symphonies of the seven seas We sang thе songs of the wind We conducted thе resplendent cacophonies Of the planets whirling overhead The way is shut, the path is lost, the bond is rust From ash to ash, from dust to dust, the end at last The way is shut, the path is lost, the bond is rust The end at last, my time is done, my time is done Ascending from nothing, a little spark in the abyss Through lifetimes, we set the world ablaze Burning bridges without a thought We were gods amongst men Invincible, immortal, immoral gluttons feasting on the Symphonies of the seven seas We sang the songs of the wind When the heart has shed a thousand paper skin The soul will know its twin The way is shut, the path is lost, the bond is rust From ash to ash, from dust to dust, the end at last The way is shut, the path is lost, the bond is rust The end at last, my time is done, my time is done How does it feel to have all you wanted? No more mountains to climb, no cliffs left to dive Far from a home that will never be again You are an imitator trapped in a fortress built on falsely placed worship Earth, give me your strength Skies, lend me your range Moon, lend me your light Stars, guide my way No seas too deep, no waves too high No stars too rough, no journey too far May winds fill my sails and stoke the fires in my heart I will never go home I burned that bridge long ago Drained, now full of hate, I go on Fueled by the only truth I know The way is shut, the path is lost, the bond is rust From ash to ash, from dust to dust, the end at last The way is shut, the path is lost, the bond is rust The end at last, my time is done, my time is done I will never go home I burned that bridge long ago Drained, now full of hate, I go on Fueled by the only truth I know 03. The Cursed Muse I'm weary, I'm weak, I am longing for sleep I gave all I had to give But given the choice, for the song in your voice In a heartbeat, I'd give it all again Marvel how fear will always precede regret When either choice will end in bitterness What would you give to find rest? Denied by beyond, nothing to lose Alone on the waves until time's end Save the soul of my cursed muse I reformed, reborn, from the dark I was torn I left the demon in the sand It wasn't enough, the way home was shut Will I ever find peace again? Marvel how fear will always precede regret When either choice will end in bitterness What would you give to find rest? Denied by beyond, nothing to lose Alone on the waves until time's end Save the soul of my cursed muse Am I the queen or am I the fool? There's no escaping or breaking fate's rules Eternity is long when you are all alone What would you give to find rest? Denied by beyond, nothing to lose Alone on the waves until time's end Save the soul of my cursed muse 04. Ghost Of Yesterday There is far more to a soul than it's vessel Or so they say But I must play the role for which I'm chosen Facing judgement for all that I have made I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies And wander 'til I forget my name She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday Everyday it seems I'm chasing my redemption For a life I threw away And had I known, I wouldn't waste a second But this is now, and now is far too late I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies And wander 'til I forget my name She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday Am I awake? Or am I dreaming? Day bleeds into night bleeds into day This body aches But they're the ones screaming This is who we are, there's no escape I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies And wander 'til I forget my name She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday 05. Lightbringer Blood red lips like she wants a bite Don’t hold your breath, his hands are tied Show me what you want and I’ll Meet you on the Great Divide She begs for death a second time Six feet under these covers like Three-part polyphonic lovers like Oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh... Goin’ down, down, down, to a heaven underground Where two’s a party and three’s a crowd You want it, you’ll find it if you open your mind Time to sin ‘til you win, let your demons out! Goin’ down, down, down where the demons hang around Where souls are sold and the music’s loud He’s sweet, she’s vicious, this love’s fictitious So sin ‘til you win, let your demons out! Lady Lightbringer (Casey Lee Williams:) Straight out the grave, they’re coming I can’t feel my face, stutter my name Love the taste of suffering You take my breath away (Casey and Adrienne:) Goin’ down, down, down, to a heaven underground Where two’s a party and three’s a crowd You want it, you’ll find it if you open your mind Time to sin ‘til you win, let your demons out! Goin’ down, down, down where the demons hang around Where souls are sold and the music’s loud He’s sweet, she’s vicious, this love’s fictitious So sin ‘til you win, let your demons out! Lady Lightbringer 06. Echoes Of Eternity To dream the unspeakable dream To satisfy the deep, dark craving No, you're not broken you just need your fix Just need a taste of a vampire kiss I'll be your dealer, 'cause you're addicted to pain Would you dance with me when the daylight's fading? (To the end of time I'll make you mine) Would you drink with me the wine of life? (Running out of time, I'll make you mine) See the world for all that's worth living for (Through the end of eternity, I'll make you mine) Would you dance with me tonight? Would you dance with me tonight? To scream only silent screams To purge your little fears and all your shame No you're not broken you just need your fix Just need a taste of a vampire kiss Crawling and begging for more, you'll never be the same Would you dance with me when the daylights fade? (To the end of time I'll make you mine) Would you drink with me the wine of life? (Running out of time, I'll make you mine) See the world for all that's worth living for (Through the end of eternity, I'll make you mine) Would you dance with me tonight? Oh scarlet redemption Free us both from sin In the darkness, we have found our way Demons dancing upon broken skin 'Til the lies and tales and sadness fade away Would you dance with me when the daylights fade? (To the end of time I'll make you mine) Would you drink with me the wine of life? (Running out of time, I'll make you mine) See the world for all that's worth living for (Through the end of eternity, I'll make you mine) Would you dance with me tonight? Would you dance with me tonight? 07. Shadow On An Endless Sea Lost in a haze again Carry on endlessly My hands stained red With the blood of my dreams The child within Watches through dead eyes For when the fire dies We are lost Why? Was this meant to be? Am I staring fate in the face? Is that my reflection I see? Why? When did passion die? And leave me with words I've already sung A shadow on an endless sea Ruthless debate within Is this what it's like to heal? Locked in my head Nothing to feel Blackеd out, dying for sleep Take me to the placе Where the battle's done If my demons won I can rest Why? Was this meant to be? Am I staring fate in the face? Is that my reflection I see? Why? When did passion die? And leave me with words I've already sung A shadow on an endless sea Darker depths beckon No sense of direction Forward in the black No turning back I chose my fate I'm to blame Unworthy, ungrateful I'm dirty, regretful Unfit for that which I build Every day and nightmare the same Why? Was this meant to be? Am I staring fate in the face? Is that my reflection I see? Why? When did passion die? And leave me with words I've already sung A shadow on an endless sea 08. Dare To Live Across these dark seas I fled Stained the waters where I bled My fears confirmed, no hope for a return They said I had it all I designed my own fall I lived a thousand lives I died a thousand times For an unworthy soul Though your song calls me home Like a siren’s voice on the wind Don’t say it’s all for nothing Won’t let it bury us this time Cause we all yearn for something When the fire burns inside Will you take the chance? Will you risk it all? Leave behind your defenses and break down your walls? Dare to live again? Spirals at night, regrets That wake me up in sweat My guts in knots, this is where peace rots The sinking chill inside The dark beneath the eyes The weight upon the chest Can’t seem to catch a breath The embrace of the cold makes its home in the hole Where the gold once beat within Don’t say it’s all for nothing Won’t let it bury us this time Cause we all yearn for something When the fire burns inside Will you take the chance? Will you risk it all? Leave behind your defenses and break down your walls? Dare to live again? Will I ever be free of my demons? Is the key to accept them? Where there’s shadow, there’s lights if I free them... I know there’s good within Don’t say it’s all for nothing Won’t let it bury us this time Cause we all yearn for something When the fire burns inside Will you take the chance? Will you risk it all? Leave behind your defenses and break down your walls? Dare to live again? If only I could be free from demons Free me from my demons Save me Free from all I am 09. In Sickness, In Health (Because of you) (The ghost of you) (And only you) Another empty rhyme Another try to capture your soul Try to pass the time To leave behind the empty and cold Melt my wings beneath your sunlight As we stand before the skyline I know it was our fate to take it But now what can I say? I'm just a bard of death and love And no words will ever be enough No words will ever be enough No words, no words No words will lever be enough Somewhere far beyond the night Past these deep sapphire skies Hope you're soaring on the wings of your dreams Hope the world's at your feet Hope you're happy and at peace Somewhere Now all these bright lights mean nothing World around me rushing I'm trapped in my mind, can barely speak I'm just a bard of death and love And no words will ever be enough No words will ever be enough No words, no words Can you hear me now? Are you there? Can you hear me now? Are you there? I'm just a bard of death and love And no words will ever be enough No words will ever be enough I'm just a bard of death and love And no words will ever be enough I'm just a bard of death and love And no words will ever be enough No words will ever be enough 10. This God Is Dead Pt 1: Smoke and Mirrors Blindly, Across the sea, Your love Lit my way through storm and shade For a thousand years. Today, and every day, Let me be your light, Let me be your light Always. Another battle, another day To face the light and pull away from the embrace Of the shadows where I survive The agony reminds me I’m alive. Oh mother, I wonder if you knew. Oh father, if only I could speak with you. Did you love my smoke and mirrors? That should be enough, that would be enough (Roy Khan:) I know you found it, that dream you chased. Don’t ever think that what you love is a mistake. Despite the demons that rule you mind, Stay the course, everything will be alright. Your mother, she watches over you. My daughter, just know that we are proud of you. From the beyond, you’ll never hear us, But you have our love, you have our love. (Adrienne:) Can’t afford to die, and can’t afford to lose. (Roy and Adrienne:) Sweet angel, wish I had been enough for you. All I am is smoke and mirrors. (Adrienne:) Would you love me if you knew? Could you love me if you knew? Pt. 2: Mania and Nothing What happened to me? I never saw these bones. I wear this skin like someone else’s clothes. These scraps of childhood scenes are roughly sewn. There’s no tomorrow, Just a day that started lifetimes ago. Back and forth, Mania and nothing. Nothing at all. What happened to me? Who am I? Everything I’ve been feels like it’s a lie. Food makes me sick and drink makes me fade. Are these my memories? Am I even awake? Back and forth, Mania and nothing. Nothing at all. Pt. 3: The Majesty (Earth, give me strength Skies, lend your range Moon, lend your light Stars, guide my way) Bow before the majesty, This loathsome demon reborn. Life with new purpose. See the earth through young eyes. Feel the universe through an ancient soul. Pt. 4: Beneath the Morning Star I have known all and nothing. I have stared into the void until it haunted my dreams. Screamed and smiled beneath the morning star, And conducted the chorus of grim constellations. Their lights lied, I died a thousand times. Floating frozen past their majesties, I wandered too far into the black. Non est otium Tibi putesce mari aeterno Abhorremus te Endless nights awake in vain My imploding brain Torturing my psyche, there was no escaping myself My hatred, my failures, my losses, my loathing There was no hollow peace This has been my final death, finally accept All that I am, and all that I’m meant to be Perhaps eternally Non est otium Tibi putesce mari aeterno Abhorremus te Pt. 1 Smoke and Mirrors (Reprise): (Roy and Adrienne): Blindly, across the sea (Adrienne:) Your love... (Roy:) Lit your way through storm and shade For a thousand years. (Adrienne:) Today, and every day (Roy and Adrienne:) I will be your light, Let me be your light, Always Pt. 5: This God is Dead Guide of the lost, Guardian of the broken, Bringer of peace in final hours. Happiness is a choice, And purpose, a charted course. I am but a soul-keeper, And this god is dead. 11. Oceans Of Time There's a shadow at the edge of the night With all intentions crystal-clear There's a shadow and it's whispering lies "You don't deserve this, my dear." All these things set you far apart from me All the tales that I have been known to weave Hear the cry of the penitent beast Listen now and believe How I have crossed every ocean of time Hoping I'd find you here And by your melody, my guardian, my guide That's how I know you're near No more sweet dreams await in the dark Only demons and dreary seas No sweet whispered nothings in the dark You don't deserve this, my dear Fear and shame kept me far apart from you Pointless ventures beyond the vast and blue You're the song I can never refuse My soul on sings for you... How I have crossed every ocean of time Hoping I'd find you here And by your melody, my guardian, my guide That's how I know you're near 12. The Unforgotten Name There was a time when all hope was lost The carcass of dreams lay at our feet And words fell on silenced ears All bridges crossed Consumed by the fires of all we'd achieved A breath of cold by day Remembers warmth that was within Like a ghost finally unbound from its prison Solemnly, I swear to vanquish darkness in your name I swear your light will permeate my being There was a time when all hope was lost The carcass of dreams lay at our feet And words fell on silenced ears All bridges crossed Consumed by the fires of all we'd achieved The unforgotten name The cherished flame that you began I have born and by night I was forgiven Seasons passed but you remained From anguish I became incandescent You have raised me from the dead There was a time when all hope was lost The carcass of dreams lay at our feet And words fell on silenced ears All bridges crossed Consumed by the fires of all we'd achieved This I'll always hold dear 13. Gods Amongst Men I, alone, heard the cries fall on the deaf ears of the night. Heard the voice and the hopeless years you suffered without sight. Shattered bones and a weary soul led to salvation. In exchange, you could never glimpse a single ray of sun. Insequere me Obscuritate Insequere me It was cold in our hell, but we found a sickened ecstasy. My mistake was believing it would please you for so long. Insequere me Obscuritate Insequere me Break the flesh, Taste the crimson dawn, Submit your form to me. Kiss of death, All restraints are gone. Your soul's forever free. Gods amongst men, Ruling earth as equals. Bound together, We shall reign Forever. 14. Dreamchaser Ignis intus cremat infinitus, Dabo requiem illis lassandis. Habeo nihil dominus! Eligo meum fatum. Habeo nihil dominus! Hear our name! Fear our name! Know our name! Know my name! Stand beneath the skies in silence, Begging for a star to fall. (Send me a sign, send me a sign, Don't want to leave this world behind) Fought for all my life to find this, Find a place where I belong. (Send me a sign, send me a sign, Don't want to leave this world behind) Dreamchaser, heartbreakеr, stargazer... I will take what's mine! Thеy will hear our name! They will fear our name! They will know our name! You will know my name! Demons strangling me lifeless, 'Til I feel nothing at all. (I won't give in, I won't give in, I won't accept this quiet death) Fight the darkness, sun is rising, Find the will to carry on, carry on. (I won't give in, I won't give in, I won't accept this quiet death) Dreamchaser, heartbreaker, stargazer... I will take what's mine! Earth, give me strength Skies, lend your range... 15. Through Lifetimes Break the flesh Taste the crimson dawn Submit your form to me Kiss of death All restraints are gone Your soul's forever free 16. Fall With Me Fall with me one last time And keep falling till we're humble and grey We can look back at our lives And laugh 'cause we thought we were old for our age I was difficult, wild, but you always sided with me You had my back even we lost track of reality 'Cause your love's like a fantasy Would you stay with me Your love's like a fantasy Please stay with me All the scars we thought would never heal Too torn and tired to protect our fire In the dark we always knew what was real And when day came, we'd hold it tight I was blind, I was reckless, my biggest regret is how long it took me to see I was stubborn and stupid, but darling the truth is I don't see no one but you Cause your love's like a fantasy Would you stay with me You mean everything Please stay with me You're my reason to live I'll give all I can give When you're near or we're oceans apart We'll make dreams come true, I'll move stars for you 'Cause all of this world could be ours Your love's like a fantasy Won't you stay with me You mean everything Please stay with me Your love's like a fantasy Won't you stay with me You mean everything Please stay with me
