DARK AVENGER LYRICS

1. The Beloved Bones

[REASON:]
I, the Master of Nothingness.
I, the ruler of the void, time and space before Life itself is.
Yes I, Beholder of Everything.
I've come to see that the prettiest thing ever made came undone!

Outcast from Heaven! Back to the primordial clay.
I sing the vision of your decay!

It's my underworld. Lay on me your tired carcass, here in my underworld. In my wonder world nothing remains! In this dark side of Heaven nothing remains!

None of man's Gods house the sinner. I welcome, embrace and accept you. Knowing your vices and you are one, from guile 'til bile's bitterness. Slavish you dance as I pull the strings; in my hands your numbered days. Come to me because to be no more is indeed, no sad end at all.

Outcast from Heaven! Back to the primordial clay.
I sing the vision of your decay!

It's my underworld. Lay on me your tired carcass, here in my underworld. In my wonder world nothing remains! In this dark side of Heaven nothing remains!

Oh, welcome to my underworld. This place was made for me and you. Together we're going under!

It's my underworld. Lay on me your tired carcass, here in my underworld. In my wonder world nothing remains! In this dark side of Heaven nothing remains!

[EMOTION:]
"In visions in the dark night, I have dreamed of joy departed.
A waking dream of light, a waking dream of life!"

2. Smile Back To Me

[REASON:]
Three, three times a fool, denier!

[EMOTION:]
Three times a rambling fool?

[REASON:]
Three times you have failed me, betrayed and lied.
On you my only expectation was: Awareness and no denial.

'Cause if I smile at you, don't turn your back on me! Smile back at me! You know I'm just right here and I will always be!

[EMOTION:]
Three times a rambling fool?

[REASON:]
Truth is a shadow that glows despite the dark and looms engulfing the uncertainty the closer we are to the light.

And now I talk to you…

[EMOTION:]
Lies! Lies!

[REASON:]
Don't turn your back to me! You gotta take on me! You know I'm just right here and I will always... be… here! Be... I'll always... be... here! I'll always be... always be here!

Oh Yeah! Truth is a shadow that glows despite the dark. And looms engulfing the uncertainty the closer we are to the light.

[EMOTION:]
"Three times a rambling fool. Three times a rambling fool"

[REASON:]
There's no turning back to where once you called Heaven, oh no. There's no turning back to where once you called Heaven, or home. There's no turning back to where once you called Heaven, oh no. There's no turning back to where once you called Heaven, or home,

So, if I smile, smile back to me. Come to my arms and I set you free!

3. King For A Moment

There's no turning back to where once you called Home
There's no turning back to where once you called Heaven

[EMOTION:]
Heaven, Heaven!

[REASON:]
There's no turning back to where once you called Home!

For how long have you craved to the Heaven? For how long have you prayed to a God? Any of them ever yearned on your misery? Any of them ever reached out for you?

No, there will be no Heaven! No, there will be no God!

Come, I defy you; I command you, come and cross! Come, without anchors, without pain! No more! Come! Leave the sorrow, leave the pain, ashore! Sail! Onward, sail! Be yourself your compass!!!

The compass in your needs

[EMOTION:]
To my needs

[REASON:]
The compass in your grief
The compass to lead your quest

There's no turning back!

4. This Loathsome Carcass

[EMOTION:]
Unfold this lost soul.
Loathsome and ghastly I roam into mud

[REASON:]
This carcass so gnarly keeps moaning its ash!

[EMOTION:]
Ah!

[REASON:]
Look at you paltry thing!
Battered up you're dimmed and wasted.
Stripped of your dignity.
Standing in a line, screaming, "I'm alive!"
Helping hand still waiting.

[EMOTION:]
Am I the master of my life? The captain of my soul?
Speak to me, speak to me!
Is this vision the reality of what I've become?

All my life, I have built castles on the sands, but sands can't be hold onto the grasp of hands.

All my life, I have built my hopes in the air, but the ruthless wisdom of the wind, relentless, wipes hopes and dreams away!

[REASON:]
You're a complete waste of existence, worthless vessel for a soul, obnoxious behavior creature; uncertain deranged future, obtuse from head to toe.

[EMOTION:]
Am I the master of my life? The captain of my soul?
Speak to me, speak to me!
Is this vision the reality of what I've become?

What I've become? What I've become?

All my life, I have built castles on the sands, but sands can't be hold onto the grasp of hands.

All my life, I have built my hopes in the air, but the ruthless wisdom of the wind, relentless, wipes hopes and dreams away!

5. Parasite

While some "friends" want your gold
I keep searching truth
Someone who can at least
Keep the word!

[EMOTION:]
So cold, inimical; I feel the shadows over me. Shining eyes,
blackened, darkened. A beast in disguise lies within

[REASON:]
While some "friends" want your gold, I keep searching truth
Someone who can at least... Keep the word!
Unreservedly naive and trustfully... long gone for good!
When it comes a time, One must realize and leave the past behind

I know parasite got a heart
Won't you leave me alone?

[REASON:]
I know… Parasite got a heart

[EMOTION:]
Won't you leave me alone?
As if all your life you had been led by the hand like a small child and suddenly left alone… Liar!

Innocent loves justice, wicked prefer mercy,
Obsequious attendance you'll never see in me

[EMOTION:]
Innocent loves justice; wicked prefer mercy,
Obsequious attendance you'll never see in me
Instead the golden lies you serve in golden smile
The rats are now my fellows; a cleaner company

Bastard! You douchebag of lies
Spitter of helping hand, I hope you die!

Liar!

As words have been spoken, I now take my leave
When it comes a time one must realize and leave the past behind,

Demanus!

6. Breaking Up, Again

[EMOTION:]
I'm a hero…
In flesh and bones for surviving life's endeavors on my own.
I'm a hero… I've got a soul!
Life is mine to live without your preaching grunts.

[REASON:]
You're not a hero… far from being so.
You are just a lie with a soul, flesh and bones
You're not a hero… a ghost in this pantomime
You were made to fail and crawl, crawl like a worm!

[EMOTION:]
Give me your endless love.
Keep me away from harm, quite safe and warm
I never asked to be born here, I've never knew why
That's your duty onto me 'til the end of time

[REASON:]
You pretend that only other people
Carry burdens and you never will

[EMOTION:]
Listen... Give me. Feed me. Keep me.

[REASON:]
Is it all you can... say?

[EMOTION:]
Give me your utter love;
Those begging hands you can't ignore!
I never asked to be born here, I've never knew why
That's your duty onto me 'til the end of time

[REASON:]
You pretend that only other people
Carry burdens and you never will

[EMOTION:]
Listen... Give me. Feed me. Keep me.
[REASON:]
Is it all you can... say?
Pretender, pretender, pretender!

[EMOTION:]
I'm a hero!
[REASON:]
No, you're not at all! A ghost in this pantomime!

I'm a hero!
[REASON:]

Is it all you can... say?

7. Empowerment

[EMOTION:]
Time after time sowing sorrows to conceal the shame within.
The time is now to turn the table; the right time to change things around

8. Nihil Mind

[EMOTION:]
I remember when I started not listening to you; I just can't recall a point through the years. I remember when I started to doubt the dream would come true; I remember. I remember when I started not wishing you so near; this came along through sleepless nights. I remember when I decided not live in fear.

I was waiting to unlock this door and see your face as knew before, instead I feared you; I've cried for you and because of you; I don't wanna take this anymore.

[REASON:]
Nihil mind! Nihil mind!

[EMOTION:]
My will it's over! All hope is gone!
Just take this cup away from my... Nihil mind!

[EMOTION:]
I remember well the love once was unbreakable started to crack up overnight. I remember well the end once was unthinkable; now so real. I remember well… lack of words came to prevail and I spoke 'bout my loneliness; I remember well… no more touch, no more caress.

I was waiting to unlock this door and see your face as knew before, instead I feared you; I've cried for you and because of you; I don't wanna take this anymore.

[REASON:]
Nihil mind! Nihil mind!

[EMOTION:]
My will it's over! All hope is gone!
Just take this cup away from my... Nihil mind!

"Fine!" your voice still echoes inside.
You've gone and left no further things, behind;
But lack of love and faith, and sadness in between
Take it away!

Nihil mind! Nihil mind!

[REASON:]
My will it's over!
All hope is gone! Just take this cup at all...

[BOTH:]
Nihil mind.

9. Purple Letter

[EMOTION:]
Am I a dead man walking? Is this my final door?
How come I've reached a point of no return?
Last thing I recall was your face... This purple letter.

[REASON:]
This time around, you're free to leave.
No hefty anchors, no bars at all.

[EMOTION:]
Am I prepared to leave? How do I know the time is right?
Why do I beg so hard for salvation? Isn't it little awkward thing?
I mean, knowing when and how;
Now I've started to love my old life. Will I remember you? And the little precious things of life
If we ever meet again in the afterlife?

[REASON:]
Yes, you are life… for a while...
And life itself it's a "while", while I'm away!

[EMOTION:]
And all mistakes I did and never had a chance to apologize...
Is it too late to ask for redemption?
Is it true we carry the guilt of our deeds while we're alive?
It's so unfair this parting burden

Where's the Savior? There'll never be?
Alone in this world… That's how I'll leave?

[REASON:]
Hum… where is the Savior? No! There'll never be!
Alone in this world…! That's how you'll leave!

"Good day Mr. Mortal, I come very respectfully
To bring you this letter, your life is about to decease"

[EMOTION:]
I must say goodbye, it's time to leave
The curtains fall for you and me
I bid you farewell... this got to be!
We'll meet again? It's hard to foresee.
But until then... remember me!
Remember me… remember me!

[REASON:]
The song is over... Well, nothing lasts forever
It's time to leave... The road is long…
For you and me!

10. Sola Mors Liberat

[REASON:]
Sola Mors Liberat
Mors!

[EMOTION:]
The same old way
I pave my days
Into the storm again

Rainy nights
Washing my eyes
Abandoned day by day

Tell me why...
Tell me why I have to die.

Tell me why...
Tell me why this makes me cry

[REASON:]
My friend
[EMOTION:]
My friend

11. When Shadow Falls

[THE I:]
Winter's taken the final leaves
Autumn bygone, no tears my dear
Flickering candle weathers the wind
That blows from the shadow

Hidden movements still unseen
Thickens the air surrounding me
Anticipating the rise of the dusk
That lurks on in the shadow

No prayer by candlelight, no tears tonight
By this time I'll be waiting for you.
When shadow falls!

There's a silence that haunts me
A cold breeze freezes me
A warm hand touches my hair
It comes from the shadow

As mist changing its silhouette
She seems to guess my weaknesses
Walking to me, calling me
My beloved one comes from the shadow

Take me away, I've got nothing to waste
Just take me away, it's so hard accepting this fate

Take me away, I've got nothing to waste
Just take me away; I'll be looking for you
When shadow falls

No prayer by candlelight, no tears tonight
By this time, I'll be waiting for you. When shadow falls!

Take me away, I've got nothing to waste
Just take me away, it's so hard accepting this fate

Take me away, I've got nothing to waste
Just take me away; I'll be looking for you
When shadow falls
