1. The Awakening

[Instrumental]

2. Of Ashes and Blood

The spawn of lifeless weak king,
Whose death has brought them from a sleep, plant seething seeds
The War rages on
For all false heirs and hexes to clash for the throne

AN-NU-SHALAMU!
WE PRAISE YOUR NAME!
WITH FIRE AND SWORD, WE STAND TO DELIVER YOUR WORD!

In years to come
Petty despots with their constant feuds will tear the Land apart
We are here to unite and stand for common folk
The sturdy men who address only to The God

The Brotherhood of Steel
Our Master guides us and we follow his will
Purifying flame shall cleanse your body and soul
The passion and the pain as one – torments of past, be gone!

AN-NU-SHALAMU!
WE PRAISE YOUR NAME!

…the enemy's nearby…

ATTACK! CHARGE!

Filthy and witless creatures
Living their miserable impulses
Spread out their rot;
Rangers have found their camp at hand
Then we shall have them slayed

IT IS WOMEN AND CHILDREN!

The One gazes from above, as I rush to see it myself
The scattered remnants of foul mistake we had made
These were not the rebels but the refugees' camp!
The disgraceful act by my own command

And in the dark of the night
We set out torches
We see our fires to rise

And in the dark of the night
We set out torches
We see our fires burn HIGH!

AS IN A DREAM
I SEE MY KIN
NIGHTMARE AWAKE
I SEE… MY WIFE AND SON… DEAD

Bereft of life they lie
As my whole world collapse
Their faces are fixed
With silent scream of agony

It's time
We make headway
The pyre for the fallen has faded out
Sleep dear child
No one shall bother you from now on

What was the sound?
I focus to see soldiers on shattered ground
The burst... the bloody mess...
They're trying to stand on with what's left of their legs

I see them crawling back with wailing
I see the madness in their eyes
Their bodies are torn; their spirit is broken
But they keep reaching out their hands…
…to the sky…

AN-NU-SHALAMU!
WE PRAISE YOUR NAME!
WITH FIRE AND SWORD
WE STAND (WE STAND!)
AND THEN WE FALL!

I can see hatred in their eyes as they unsheathe their steel
A handful of men blaring loudly, the cause of doom is me
I say:
My kin, my love, my child, now you, my brothers
With all the strength and power in my body I have now
I strike you down!

…cursed be your name…
…cursed be your dictate…

A Victory
With one man standing
Lone survivor
To leave the desert

Demons of sand shall welcome me
Underworld wights will clench my hand tight
As far as all the Realm can see
I am to blame and nothing's left behind

In years to come
Bounty hunters with their curved blades will tear my frame apart

Do you feel flattered now, Lord of Crimson Light?
Is that a hint of smile, my Lord of Barren?
Is that your raving howl I hear above the clouded sky, O Lord of Flies?

3. Desert Winds

Is there a place in this cold world,
I am to call home?
Is there a greater wrong to be told,
The things I have done?
The sum of all my fears in the darkness of light
Serene dying eyes

A sleep I'm too tired to awake from
The time is running dry
The sweet music of oblivion
The loudness of the sky
The desert winds call out my name
A chant so pure, so bright
It soothes me with its tranquility
It warms the depths of my corroded heart

Lost is everything I own
Gone is everyone whom I adore
The battle banners are folded
The wind has fallen still
The pain had overcomes me

I cry the heavens, in vain
The earth, the stars, the water
As witness against the questions that remain unanswered
I am a shadow, a void, a long lost and forgotten spirit in a shell of someone who once was there

Image of dying land
Erased and decayed
I saw in fires of war
And yet I hunger to
Build it anew
Emotions deep inside of me
Keep burning and burning...
So burn!

The storm is coming
The winds awaken

The shadows of my past
Aspire from the deep
Grasp me, as I begin
My final journey
To Master of halcyon stars

4. River of Time

[Instrumental]

5. Godless War

The stage is set
The strings are stretched
The pieces are moving

Fragments of past
Reveal themselves
In downfall's debris
Of godless war

Enslaved by the power of fear
In searing chains of Almighty Sun
We lived, we died

We craved the truth of the unknown
We searched for reason to have hope
We followed the signs with passion
But nothing hadn't happened
So we yearned for change

Lifetime has passed, aggression overthrows the fear
Struggle for nothing never ceases
Mankind is on the brink

So strong, yet so fragile
So timid, yet so lustful
So brave, yet so afraid
The path of glory leads you nowhere but the grave

If we are to drown shall You die with us?
If we are to burn shall You die with us?
Divided we stand
Divided we fall

Rulers of Seven Seas Arise!
YOUR LIFE MEANS NOTHING TO US NOW
Hail the genesis of the master race!
YOUR FATE, YOUR FUTURE, YOUR TORTURE, YOUR PAIN
WE COMMAND YOU
OBEY

In the presence of eternal death
You're to breathe as to our demand
Extinct, you are to be
Suppressed slaves

Storms beneath the blackened skies outburst
A taste of power leaves a mess of thoughts
This madness, this hatred, this wrath...
For what?
All is lost

All things uncomely and broken, all things worn out and old
(Are) wronging the image that blossoms in deep of my heart

Wheels of warfare are rolling again now
The greatest battle is about to come
The ones who won't die for a thousand years
Are prepared to spill their blood

Time drops in a decay
The sand in hourglass stands still
The moment of no turning back
The years of darkness' reign

It's almost dawn
Yet down is the sun

No feelings left
No pain or remorse
The cities lie in ruins
Fighting to the death
With all their strength for
Dominion delusion

The last blow
To take control
The final solution

THE SIGNAL of OBLITERATION

Night turns to day
Skies melt with fever and rage
Gasping for air, they choke
With stench of burning flesh
Their burning flesh

As the sun sets
In this dying world of ashes and dust
He's alone to pay
The price for extinction and distrust
Ruler of all that remains

This other world I've made
These images I've created
I tried them with a chain to tie
I gave the shape to all
I granted them appearance
Yet with no name
They're destined to fall down

The light we were searching
The light we were waiting for
Is gone
