1. Libera Me - Overture For Choir And Orchestra In E Minor

Libera me,
De morte aeterna,
In die illa tremenda
Quando coeli movendi sunt et terra,
Dum veneris judicare
Saeculum per ignem
Tremens factus sum ego, et timeo
Dum discussio venerit

[Translation:]

Deliver me,
From eternal death,
On that fearful day
When the heavens are moved and the earth
When thou shalt come to judge
The world through fire
I am made to tremble, and I fear,
When the desolation cometh

2. Wolf

Solitude's my epitaph
I've been dying within
Secrets kept inside tattoed my skin
Still darkness dwells in me

Born in everlasting mists
Endless quest for truth I am
In the shrine of gloom I cry

Chase the dark
Bring the end
Stormcloud winter is my reign
Against the coldest winds I run
Alone until the day I die

I'm alone

From the abyss came forth my love
Never meant to be real
From the embers of my soul to you
Drifts me far away

Fading echoes
Havoc revealed
No more concealed by
An ephemeral life
What makes a man try to fight for absolution?
Show him the flame
Then let him set himself on fire

In astral silence we stand
I feel your grief in me
To cherish all your tears
I'm here with you now

Trapped beyond my inner doubts
I've been searching in vain
Now the answers lie behind these staves
The path I walk is my own

Born in everlasting mists
Endless quest for truth I am
In the shrine of gloom I cry

Chase the dark
Bring the end
Stormcloud winter is my reign
Against the coldest winds I run
Alone until the day I die

3. The Night Song

The raven's lonely flight
The throne where you're supposed to be
It's just a thorn, a crime
There's no forgiveness

This is all my spirit has
A sacred place for you and me
Forgotten and betrayed
I tried to hold it

This crystal grave was built for you
Of haze as wolves cried to the moon
This dying rose I give to you
It's made of my blood?
Now it belongs to you

The velvet kiss of rain
The moment when the angels sing
You did it all in vain
Nothing's there for you

High is the price I have to pay
My sin was to behold your eyes
When darkness blinds the day
So cruel and distant

It seems you don't understand
That the gods don't need your cries
You've kissed her hand for the last time
The last time, my son

Wake frozen dusk, haven of souls
Tear up my heart, your sign will rise
Black corvine eyes wait as my hope
Silently dies... now

Death and love dance in your name
Like tears in the stream
Both the hunter and the prey
Fell in love with the knife's blade

I will search for you forever in this maze
I won't break this vow

This crystal grave was built for you
Of haze as wolves cried to the moon
This dying rose I give to you
It's made of my blood?
Now it belongs to you
As shades are gathering
Around our hearts

The seventh circle in darkness is rising
The circle is rising
Now the source is dying down

4. Saint-Germain (The Man Who Killed Death) Part I

I've found that silver knife
Laying heartless in my palm
Your blood doesn't stain its blade
Who are you?

Angelique, show me the way
The way out of here
Let me reach for your beauty again
Angelique, show me the way
The way out of here
Like a shadow your vision's in me

I've got to kill a man who killed death
I've got to kill... The Man Who Killed Death

You've taken her from me
I'll give you hell for it
Don't say she's just my dream
... is this real?

A new world, gold-shining
A hope beyond this land
An angel, gold-shining
Salvation in her eyes...

A new lie, gold-shining
A puppet in their hands
Illusions, gold-shining
Created in your mind

I've got to kill a man who killed death
I've got to kill... The Man Who Killed Death

There's a darkened space inside me
Made of memories of you
The trail you left behind
Those seven doors I'll walk through
Out of this wasted land... to you

Give me strength to break the gates
Beyond the sky
Where your soul remains still
Far from the dome of life and death
I'm still with you

Angelique, show me the way
The way out of here
Let me reach for your beauty again
Angelique, show me the way
The way out of here
Like a shadow your vision's in me

5. Saint-Germain (The Man Who Killed Death) Part Ii

Don't speak so bravely about death
It's just another empty word to me
Created by weak souls and dreaming fools like you
I'm not the one to fear
I shouldn't be your enemy
But be aware of what I say
Or we'll play my game

The ages rise and fall before me
One thousand times I've seen your suffering
A reason to live for
...Or a lie to fight for?
The way to wisdom is a weapon
The seven secrets are eternal might
But maybe it's just your mind
Playing tricks on you

I know that she is nigh
The chalice takes me high
I feel the living stars
The universe aligned
Oh... the infinity
Angelique...

Angelique
Come to me
Embrace my pain
It can't be the last time
Angelique
I bleed for you
Please don't go

I've got to kill a man who killed death
I've got to kill... The Man Who Killed Death

6. Rain

For the last time I am alone
For the last time It feels so cold
It's the last time
Now she has gone

But then... the sky answers

Rain
Rain is falling down on me
Here comes the rain

For a moment I hear a prayer
Just a moment but It's so clear
You're calling me
You're touching me
Oh it hurts deep down

Your soul is so lost without me
But I can't recall your eyes
Oh... hold me and kiss me
Please take me with you

Frail threshold of sanity
The nightmare became so real
But all the tears,
The pain we feel
Are washed by the...

Rain
Rain is falling down on me
Here comes the rain
For the last time

7. Wanderer

Step back! The trees guard the way
And the wind's full of voices no soul's ever heard
They sing forever their secret tale
On this place blessed by nightfall they embrace your gait

I've walked across all forests
Their beauty is killing me

For those who'll never see the mountains
Forever my eyes have been broken
For those who'll never see the mountains
Forever my soul has been broken
It's broken down

You've felt the beating
Under the barks
Those who were silent (You've chosen to wander)
Now chant loud in you (Forlorn? Lost?)

This time the breeze won't take their pain from me
This time I want their tears to stay in my heart

I cry for those who'll never see the mountains
Forever my eyes have been broken
I cry for those who'll never see these mountains
Forever my soul has been broken
It's broken down

8. In My Dreams

Immortal name, immortal fame
His face will be wherever you are
Awake the wolf that's on your heart
It will protect your deepest desires

Have you ever felt that rain?
Water flowing through its veins
I cry feeding its fate
Inside your dreams

The shadow will roam till death embraces your soul
Dawn will come, dream this night
Alone with your tears, alone with your fears
Lost in memories you have just lived

On this rainy night I pray
To find you one day
Show me the way I must walk
In this humid shelter I pray
To feel you again
And to discover your light

Growing life beside your life
Eternal cycle under the skies
Sometimes the bright snows refresh its skin
Watch Spring weaving the silk
Enchanted by delightful charm
Sometimes its Autumn leaves caress the air

9. Venom X

I know it's time to kill the sickness from my soul
My eyes have seen too many things never seen before
I know it's time to feed the viper in my soul
I know it's my turn to take control
Now!

Something inside is devouring my rotten core
I feel it clear, soft lips of a whore
Twisting my mind into ashes
Into ashes I fall
Can't bear this suffocation

It is the warmth of the hemlock on virgin skin
- Respire the disease
It is the book where all truth is spoilt
- Crawl into light
It is the lust of illusion
- Ecstasy is yours
It's a worm called mankind
But now I have awoken

Falseness tempting me wherever my way goes
In this baneful sea I am
As the world sleeps down in trance, my vision grows
I still stand sober and cold

The tempest crosses skies, eternal
I hear its painful call inside of me
The tempest crosses skies, eternal
I hear its silent cry:
Death to the world!

Oh The air is so cold tonight
It saves me from their white masquerade
I can see them now I know they're afraid, yes
And the poisonous seed still tries to swallow my soul
But I'm not weak anymore

Defy them Crystal Mind
You're not one of them
Tellurian sight Cursed one

Carving a hole in my spirit
Gliding unseen like a spider in black
It pours my blood as I struggle for some air to breathe
To breathe this choking sulphur

It is the pyre that lights the blind's way
- Dance in the flames
It is the garden in bloom where lovers die
- Caress the blade
It is the parasite
- Let senses fly
But I'm out of its reach
Its antidote I am

The tempest crosses skies, eternal
I hear its painful call inside of me
The tempest crosses skies, eternal
I'll be its silent cry:
Death to the world!

10. The Mastery Of Pain

The world stopped
A raindrop fell over your cheek
As winds off shore caressed your hair
I knew the mastery of pain

Like the cold snow shelters the evergreen leaves
Just before the sun takes it away
So our time won't last for evermore
But don't fear the night
The essence never dies

Don't you see that our love is real
In your eyes, beyond this life
Don't you see that this love is real
In your eyes, it will never die

I wish this could be true
The mastery of pain

Inside
The essence never dies
Deep inside
The essence never dies

Please don't give me more thoughts pure
I don't want anything but you
Please don't leave this world of doom
I can't live without your voice
You're a fire in the sky
I will crush heavens to dust
'Cause I need your love - I need you
I need you to be free - I need you

Don't you see that our love is real
In your eyes, beyond this life
Don't you see that this love is real
In your eyes, it will never die

Inside
The essence never dies
Inside
The essence never dies

I wish this could be true...

11. Follow The Chain

Surrounded by the ocean wind
Mortal Silence takes me
Over my lonely trail

Reddish sand is hiding the trace
Taken by the traveller god

Empty eyes fixed on a tragedy
Mirrored from a distance beside you

Reddish sand is hiding the trace
Taken by the traveller god

Follow the chain one more autumn
I never wanted to lose my faith
But still tomorrow
Another link will join this endless chain

I can see you
Roaming through the track
Like a Timewalker
yearning for his time

Make for the chain end
Out of this world
Reliving grief and madness
Wishing to stay
Embraced by the sea

Follow the chain one more autumn
I never wanted to lose my faith
But still tomorrow
Another link will join this endless trail of sorrow

12. Seven Candle Circle

Waiting under starlight
To feel your white shining
My life has no meaning
Without dreaming of you

This is the circle where souls bleed for love
Inside this circle we die now

Seven demons from heaven
Wings of a raven in descent
I was just a weak pawn
With a heart torn for you

This is the circle where souls bleed for love
Inside this circle we die now
This is the circle where all hopes are lost
Inside this circle we die now

Crossing through the archway
Seven are gathered here
The cloister vibrates with the sound

This score is a path that
leads me astray from you
Please forgive what I have to do

In quo est salus, vita, et resurrectio

This is the circle where souls bleed for love? for you
This is the circle where all hopes are lost
Inside this circle we die now

Cursed by the light, Damned by the night

13. Under The Cathedral

[Instrumental]

14. In Darkness (Rmx)

Then, today you shall die
and you'll never see this night
As the dusk falls your life shall disappear

I see you walk to me
As if you were in a dream
Kneel before the truth
Ends with the lie

This is the end
The dark awaits
In darkness
