GORGUTS LYRICS

1. Inverted

[music: Lemay / lyrics: Lemay]

Truth before your eyes
Sheltered you in lies
Through the cross, you'll find
The peacefulness once promised

Flesh denied for life
By using Christ as an acolyte
Enrolled in reclusion
Serenity will be just illusion

Upright you praise the serpent
To God, you claimed being a servant
Through sin, within you hold
Your feebleness and filthy soul

Why preaching about love and hate
When blindness enlighten your own faith
Inverted behavior
Integrity is the only saviour

Deep, is, your devotion
For the left-hand side
Peace, you cannot give
To the confessed ones

False, is, your compassion
For the crucified
In which your trueself
Will persist to hide

Truth before your eyes
Sheltered you in lies
Through the cross, you'll find
The peacefulness once promised

Flesh denied for life
By using Christ as an acolyte
Enrolled in reclusion
Serenity will be just illusion

2. Behave Through Mythos

[music: Cloutier / lyrics: Lemay]

Once upon history
Man created his own deities
Trust in divinities
Kept enlightenment upon mysteries
Behave through mythos
Fictive idolatry
Faith and praise for those still left unseen
Searching veracity
Myths dominate prophetically
Behave through mythos
Mortal perplexity
Mind imprisoned in credulity
Mental intricacy
Truth being revealed through fake entities
Behave through mythos

Pure rationality
Man's self-edified supremacy
Senseless reality
Mind-constructed tales praised slavishly
Behave through mythos
Fictive idolatry
Man's self-edified supremacy
Searching veracity
Truth being revealed through fake entities
Chaotic nought
Reigns silently
Upon an-ki
Chaos being solved
As mortal kneels
Light shall be brought...thy mighty beings

3. From Wisdom To Hate

[music: Mongrain, Cloutier / lyrics: Lemay]

Chariot traces carved in sand
Once more, pain, will expand my land
Each arrow thrown
Strengthen my throne

Bounds to my realm, the sword shall set
My blade was the one that you've last met
With red-stained hands,
The victor stands

From wisdom to hate
From wisdom to hate

Intrude my peace...war I'll proclaim
Your empty skull will be my gain
I will with greed
Watch yourself bleed

With envious eyes, on me you've sinned
Each place I pass are left to ruins
On your decline
My reign will shine

From wisdom to hate
From wisdom to hate

I am the one which none defies
Warfare and I are unified

Wisdom collapse
Hatred soon will rise

Chariot traces carved in sand
Once more, pain, will expand my land
Each arrow thrown
Strengthen my throne

Bounds to my realm, the sword shall set
My blade was the one that you've last met
With red-stained hands,
The victor stands

I am the one which none defies
Warfare and I are unified

4. The Quest For Equilibrium

[music: Lemay / lyrics: Lemay]

Gain through terror
Maintained the growth of my empire
Pain caused by my anger
Maintained the fall of their empire

Blinding is my crown
Fearless is my throne
Your land... I will make my own

"Hail, my master"
Shall be the words spoken in my honor
Curse of the conqueror
Besieges your soul as you surrender

Shadows of my hand
Darkness on your land
Forever and now
You shall kneel and bow to me... slavishly

Bitter is your defeat
Treasures at my feet
Your wealth... I behold, with greed

Gain through terror
Maintained the growth of my empire
Pain caused by anger
Maintained the fall of their empires

Shadows of my hand
Darkness on your land
Forever and now
You shall kneel and bow to me... slavishly

5. Unearthing The Past

[music: Mongrain / lyrics: Lemay]

Relics captured in stratas
For millennia, have been sleeping
Secrets of buried scriptures
Are whispered through the sound of wind

Kingdoms or dormant splendors
For millenia, have been sinking
Speeches of buried surfaces
Are roaming through the seas of sand

Realms, once back to light
Archa-speeches are told
Realms brought back to sight
Archapolis behold

Rising the fragments
Signs of previous lives
Told to the present
Lores of ancient times

Unspeakable beauties
Ruins of fabled places
Soiled testimonies
Of ancestors' races

Relics captured in stratas
For ages, have been hiding
Echoes from a lost era
Can be heard through the sounds of wind

Kingdoms of radiant splendors
For ages, have been shining
Conquest of the conquerors
Are covered by the seas of sand

Unearthing the past
Knowledge...concealed
To the unborn one
Unearthing the past...

6. Elusive Treasures

[music: Coutier, Mongrain / lyrics: Lemay]

Cursed by nature
Hence sea confines...mystifies
Haunting the mortal mind
Since the mist of time
As a myth it had survived

Praised was their knowledge
Beyond it's shores... idolized
Their kingdom's splendid sites reigned high
As perfection of mankind

Drowned entirely within one night
Swallowed was their empire
In the mist of time
Dreadful floods, none had survived

The mighty Sola Terra
Forever fell asleep
Mysterious sinking drama
Lost in Daedalian deeps
The mystic Sola Terra
Forever shall exist
Within the grips of ocean
Lost in abyssal mist

Cursed by nature
Hence sea confines...mystifies
Haunting the mortal mind
Since the mist of time
As a myth, it had survived

Drowned, entirely
Within one night
Swallowed, was, their empire
In the mist of time
Dreadful floods, none had survived

The mighty Sola Terra
Forever, fell asleep
Mysterious sinking drama
Lost in Daedalian deeps
The mystic Sola Terra
Forever, shall exist
Within the grips of ocean
Lost in abyssal mist

7. Das Martyrium Des...

[music: Lemay, Mongrain / lyrics: Lemay]

Disentanglement from flesh's captivity
Freedom's lair soon I will reach
Unlock the ultimate gate to perpetuity
Mortal's lair soon I will leave

Disembodiment from tangibility
Immortal soon I will be
Fearless I cross the gate to pure eternity
Blinding light soon I will see

Lucid pain
Brings the gift
From this earth
I shall drift

Tied ...facing the archers
Pierced ...bleed with rapture

Rise ...towards splendors
Feel ...divine grandeurs

Disentanglement from flesh's captivity
Freedom's lair soon I will reach
Unlock the ultimate gate to perpetuity
Mortal's lair soon I will leave

Tied ...facing the archers
Pierced ...bleed with rapture

8. Testimonial Ruins

[Instrumental]

[music: Mongrain, Lemay]
