LEX TALION LYRICS

1. Origin (Introduction)

Like a trifling omen, the mortal listens to the wolves howling.
The sweet voice of nature, in its profound rite, blinds the curious traveller
who goes deep into a world he does not belong to… as man destroys
through action what he does not know, with his own doubts and his own
being. Yet, attracted by the millennial chants, he decides to be careful and limits himself to lying in wait.

Every step is a revelation towards the uncertain and the unknown. But the animality of man, as every other beasts of nature, makes him follow the final course, which is not delivered by anything else but by the demise caused by nature itself. And, in the wake of this very demise, new life grows to feed from the remains of another, and the fervor of the storm and the lullaby of Mother Nature guard it.

2. The Kingdom Of The Forgotten

There’s a kingdom that - nobody can see
Not so far away if you wanna hear the tale,
There are no laws, only death and ruin
And destitutes who intertwine their reason all along.

Death to the king!
Death to the king!
It’s the cry (out in the streets)
Death to the king!
Death to the king!
It’s the cry of one and all!

Don’t forget – (that) everything in life
Comes renewed and grows with the wisdom of old,
The kingdoms battle on - with no reason at all
They deploy their weapons - but never ever love

They will fall!
They will fall!
By decisions of their own
They will fall!
They will fall!
By their hunger and greed of gold!

Don’t destroy your mission in life
You were born to be free and so shall be your death,
Respect the flower and the beast
But never an unfaithful king who only seeks for his riches in evil.

They will fall!
They will fall!
By decisions of their own
They will fall!
They will fall!
By their hunger and greed of gold!

3. Blood & Mead

Tonight lets drink without stopping, brothers, rise your horns now,
Tomorrow we will fight,
And sow corpses in the sea

Drink and laugh and sing throughout the night with the sweetest mead of truth,
Drink and sing without stopping!

Lets toast to the battles, to the women, to Freyja and her kindness,
To the drink that in our hands will forever be,
The same if in Valhala, on the land or on the sea
Let us all sing as always, lai la la la la la la!

Fields so green and so abundant that will surely grow in life,
With fertile land and a woman our offspring shall be born!

When the ferment springs and mixes up with blood,
Odin enters in our bodies!
While taking in his sacrifice and sorrow.
da fuerza al mortalta y se mezcla con el cuerpo,

Lets toast to the battles, to the women, to Freyja and her kindness,
To the drink that in our hands will forever be,
The same if in Valhala, on the land or on the sea
Let us all sing as always, lai la la la la la la!

4. The Battle Of The Souls

Set and ready they are
On the fields of the end,
The souls that await to fight once again
Against the shadows of the mortal plane

At the end of the Earth, they will open the ground with their fire
To be set free from the perpetual confinement and finally fight

The shadows marching to the place
Enveloped in tempest and in hate
The colour of heavens start to change
Beginning the battle of the end

All the trusting souls, they have nothing to lose anymore,
Swords made of light, great peaceless shields, attacking the shadows of our doom.

Swords made of light …
great peaceless shields …
attacking the shadows …
of our doom …

Those who lose will not return
To the mortal world
Illusory steel deploy they will
Opening wounds of light and truth
Souls and shadows already fall
For the universal balance…

--

Both sides cry Victory, nobody knows who will lose
Endless deadly battle, fought for keeping equality…
Sever the souls…
Battle the shadows…
¡With-out end!

5. Ode To A Fallen Warrior

“Rise your Light from the shadows,
look at your World once more,
never to return.”

Let us sing, my brethren, the final Ode:
Fallen - warrior, in glory - you’ll be.
Sow in - the meadows – the joy and the peace,
And to Valhalla lead your soul.

There is truth no more, on the land is just where the sea dies…
Be strong warrior, it’s not a choice of destiny, it is only there to see
Like the steel and the fire which melt your immortal soul
Like a sword forging your peace, and to the right of Odin you will sit …

Let us sing, my brethren, the final Ode:
Fallen warrior, in glory you’ll be.
Sow in the meadows the joy and the peace,
And to Valhalla lead your soul.

There is truth no more, on the land is just where the sea dies…
Be strong warrior, it’s not a choice of destiny, it is only there to see
Like the steel and the fire which melt your immortal soul
Like a sword forging your peace, and to the right of Odin you will sit …

6. Mirrors

The sun shone again in its gait and then he woke up
Time went by but he was looking for a place.
It took him years trying to find a place to be.
Skies, mountains and meadows he crossed, ‘til a blind man spoke

“You will find it, on your path, though the end is not real”.

Following his fate as a guide he found a place
Of fine solitude, dark arcane, what shall you bring?
Exhausted between the field and the abyss he couldn’t go on
His long lost skies, the hidden lake was lying there.

[Spoken:]
- Is it the lake talking to me?, have you really spoken? Where are you?
- I’m not lake nor am I land, my name thou shall not know
- Am I really going mad?, Where’s your voice coming from?
- I’ll show you, come! Abandon yourself to my sweet waters, come… come..
- I don’t know, I can’t do it, I feel a cold fear covering my soul and with every second I feel even more numb.

I see my other self in your vicious waters’ mirror,
But he’s different to me, the expression’s not the same
Why do I see this child there submerged inside of you?

No! No! I must enter the lake now!
Even if I’m down below I just cannot reach the child!
Floating souls carry me to the bottom of your evil!
How can I be breathing here, where are you coldest lake?

As he understood that his home was a freezing lake,
He wanted out but the way he never found
The face of a man then appeared on the other side
He was the blind man from the path who declared:

“You shall not wash your past in an old lake
I did it and now look at you...
We wasted our time running away from such a splendor
And now the voice is wind, murmur of a lake with no sun”.

7. Funeral In The Forest

Among shadows of resentment,
A dead man walking, he escaped,
To the silence of a better place…

Ran to the forest seeking
to get resurrection,
as a way of starting over…

He invoked that power
Demanding for rebirth,
To be a part of life in that immensity,

And his wish it was fulfilled,
Blood to sap he turned
He became a tree to shade in loneliness…

Unable to feel
Saw his leaves falling
Slowly in perpetual agony
Of a wish that’s wrongly made.

Arcane with no return,
Cruel joke of fate,
Sadness, loneliness, and at the end
His branches perished as he did…

Tree of a lost time,
Days with no hours,
Veins with no blood,
Funeral of the birds
Which wave goodbye on thin air…

9. Balder (Introduction)

“Son of Æsir, in the shadows of Helheim you shall remain dead, for no giant has
mourned your death. Resist, three winters in a row will batter the land, the stars will
go out in the sky, Hel will open unleashing chaos, the herdsman of the Jötunn will sit
smiling on his tomb, strumming his harp. Hrym shall lead his army and sail on his
ship Naglfar. Everything shall surrender, but when this time comes, you will release
yourself and come back to life as the new king of the heavens. Balder, son of Odin!”

10. The Legacy Of Balder

From the heights of Vigrid you see the giants arrive,
The wasted from Helheim observe the land which Loki will seize.
The fire unleashed in the heavens by Surtr and his will
That holding his great sword will even rock Valaskjálf.

From the depths of the Earth, drunken from wine and victory,
They have arrived opening Hel, crying out for blood to be drunk.

Heimdal plays his horn alerting the Æsir to the Chaos,
Odin rides searching for truth, and Yggdrasil will tremble and shake!
The Einherjer prepare their eternal spears molten in undying flames.
The great snake shall succumb, leading Thor into glory.

Inside the guts of the wolf lie the remains of Odin the great,
The strength of Vidar will surely avenge him slaying the monstrous Fenrir.
Balder resurrected son of Odin lead your throne towards truth
Balder lead your throne towards truth!

11. The Journey Of Lucifer

He dragged his body - until he reached a path,
Drank water from the heavens - and his hell was built up again

Stronger and standing - his smile returned to his face
And he mockingly thanked the Light - for helping him start over

He divided the seas - and lurked upon the desert soils,
He marked off his new world - in reverence to his new God.

Light, you dragged your feet in blindness
Light, so you quenched your thirst
Light, you took from his mercy
Light, a thousand smiles will burn!

The rightful son of Dawn - pulled down from the heavens,
Prodigious bright star and Oh so beautiful – a ruler of nations he has become…

From the northern end - in the valley of gathering,
He embarked on his journey again, for he dreams of being like his maker…

Light, that you drank from the spring
Light, you thought you could not be killed
Light, so righteous without a king…
Light, and your law shall be his Will!

[Spoken:]
”Cómo has caído de los cielos, Lucero, hijo de la Aurora”
(How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of Dawn)

Light, you dragged your feet in blindness
Light, so you quenched your thirst

Light, so righteous without a king…
Light, and your law shall be his Will!
Light, a thousand smiles will burn!
Light... Lucifer!

12. The Architect Of The Forest

Father, you see the immensity,
I beg of you - let thy kingdom come,
Distant skies of tranquil clouds, ancient forests that watched me walking by

“I am the light, I am the dark, the imperfection,
The teaching, forgiveness and death,
The fragile figure that grew from their creeds
I’m the Architect of the Forest
I am who paints their dreams with thin canvas,
The singing of the birds and the silence from the tree… hold me
As I lay resting in the grand lake of the life… I saw growing …”

- Father I’m so close, give me from your forest, I wish to perish
And to be just a thorn from the rose - to protect myself from this flawed
World… you have created for me

- “You are the thorn from the rose
You are he who shall protect her so you can both… grow…”
