1. On The Wings Of Time

[Music & lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

Come with me, I'll show you places
that you've never seen before
Magic kingdoms of the ages
Monuments of time

On this journey to horizons
you will find your sanctuary
You'll feel safe and you will know
all your fears are gone

To eternity
To your destiny

Fly on the wings of time
Far to horizons far beyond your mind

Time will carry you from madness
Time will tell you many tales
Fly above this gray existence
Pain will go away

Share the wisdom and the power
Time is running endlessly
You're the one who holds the key
to new reality

To eternity
To your destiny

Fly on the wings of time
Far to horizons far beyond your mind

2. Sorrow's Tear

[Music by Vlad Invictus & Goran Garčević; lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

I'm the blade of your doom
I will end your book of life
I am piercing through your flesh
I'm your judge and I'm your jury

Touch me, I'll tear your soul
I'm the sweet death you are looking for

Sorrow's tear, I will be here
to blood your eyes and to hear your cries
Sorrow's tear, I will be here
to blood your eyes and to hear your cries
Hear your cries

I'm the venom in your blood
sea of poison in your cup
I'm the stealer of life's breath
fate that's worser than your death

Hold me, I'll be your end
I'm the omega, of darkness descent

Sorrow's tear, I will be here
to tell you lies and to bring demise
Sorrow's tear, I will be here
to tell you lies and to bring demise
Bring demise

Sorrow's tear, I will be here
to blood your eyes and to hear your cries
Sorrow's tear, I will be here
to tell you lies and to bring demise
Bring demise

3. Night Sky

[Music & lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

Wind whispered silently, calling my name
Forest stood peacefully, always the same
Gods have abandoned me, time fades away
Night gathers, suddenly, stars light my way

In my dreams I saw the key to my fate
Hope will never be my friend
For life may be one, I know it’s too late
I’ll be strong until the end

There was a time when I’d bow down and cry
Everything’s changing beneath the night sky
Moonless, enchanting, no shadows to cast
I’m of the night now, forsaking the past

In my dreams I saw the source of my fears
Now in darkness we are one
For my sins I tried to reach for the sun
but it all now disappears

Night sky, cover me
Take me on your wings
I’m forever free to guide my destiny

4. Hymn Of Vengeance

[Music & lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

Slain in battle, you sleep now in heavens
My father, your death must be avenged
You died for our freedom, your blood is my oath
that I shall not rest until I feed my sword
I now draw this circle of vengeance and hate
to glorify memory, I call upon gods
Oh, hear me, almighty, if that is my fate
then I will not fall, for I will be strong as steel

I will have revenge
Like the wind I will break these chains

With the hammer of gods I'll grind you to dust
and time will stop for all of your kind
Your head will stand high on the top of my spear
Your people will run, for I'll bring them fear
Hear my curse, hear my cry, a thundering storm
I will bring you death, for that I was born
Oh, hear me and grant me my vengeance this night
Then I'll end my oath and I'll raise the sword of steel

I'll release you from life
Now kneel and weep as you die

Take this sacrifice
it's the oath of blood
Vengeance from my heart
no man can defy

Now die!
Your blood is my oath!

Take this sacrifice
it's the oath of blood
Vengeance from my heart
no man can defy

5. Power Of The Destiny

[Music by Vlad Invictus & Goran Garčević; lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

Riding to the crimson sunset in the land of no return
Faith in my heart gives me strength to carry on and on
In this wasteland of the shadow, fear keeps knocking on my door
Filled with power, now I must be strong

From the ashes I am rising
Reaching for eternity

Feel the vengeance on my steel
and power of the destiny
Sealed my fate I know the future
I will be forever free

Opening the book of secrets, magic words are calling me
I will fight until the day I die
Ancient wisdom of the elders promising the gift of life
Spread my wings of freedom to the sky

From the shadows I am rising
Reaching for divinity

Feel the vengeance on my steel
and power of the destiny
Sealed my fate I know the future
I will be forever free

From the ashes I am rising
Flying to eternity

Feel the vengeance on my steel
and power of the destiny
Sealed my fate I know the future
I will be forever free

6. Crossroad Of Forever

[Music & lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

Dream of winter, broken promise
Though it’s been so long, I cannot pretend anymore
Time brings changes, memory’s fading
on a love that was worth fighting for

I’m still searching for those lost days
After all these years, fear has returned to my soul
Child of silence, dreaming one day
you will stay with me to guide me over the wall

If the look in your eyes can tell me
after the rain that was in our hearts
will the rainbow start to rise?
With the look in your eyes around me
I will never be lost you could find me
before this life turns to dust

I’m still trying, I’m still counting
on a love that has no understanding for me
I’ll keep trying, I’ll keep fighting
for your love that’s not worth fighting for

If the look in your eyes can tell me
after the storm that raged in our hearts
will the sun begin to shine?
Is forever a long time to wait
on a crossroad that’s beside me
will we meet somewhere again?

7. King In The North

[Music & lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

Hear the sound of the warriors’ steel
Clash of swords screaming over the hills
Hear the call of the forsaken gods
Raging fury unleashed from the dark

in this battle where no one will win
Wrathful vengeance and hatred within
in the hearts of the men who would die
on this field where the earth meets the sky

To those who have fallen
I raise my sword
The oath has been spoken
King in the North

I have witnessed this tragical day
I have seen it in eyes of the slain
I have carried my pain much too far
I have listened the words in my mind

Time enough for the earth in the grave
World is small in the hearts of the brave
Chains of violence are spreading the sound
Blood will flow on this burial ground

To those who have fallen
I raise my sword
The oath has been spoken
King in the North

8. Glory Is Calling Me

[Music by Vlad Invictus & Goran Garčević; lyrics by Vlad Invictus]

I raise my sword now and call the God of the sunlight
to ease my soul from the dark I hold deep within me
My armor’s blazing, my faith will give me the answer
am I mistaken, will your light shine once again on me?

I dreamed of freedom and days of glory forgotten
My heart was weeping for revenge that cannot die

Oh, lord almighty, grant me with strength to forgive them
to ease my soul from this pain and endless suffering

Onward to battlefield
Ten thousand sons of steel
No fear within their hearts
All pawns must play their parts

Dies irae, dies illa*
Here will be our final stand
Solvet saeclum in favilla*
Blood will soak this holy land

Lament of victory
Glory is calling me
For honor of my king
with blood I slake my steel

I see the sun reborn
New light upon the throne
To rule and to defend
This game will never end

Rex tremendae maiestatis*
Woe to those who led astray
Salva me, fons pietatis*
They will meet their judgement day

Lament of victory
Glory is calling me
For honor of my king
with blood I slake my steel

[* from Dies Irae, XIII century Latin hymn]
