POWER SYMPHONY LYRICS

1. Battles In The Twilight

[Marco Cecconi, Michela D'Orlando]

I have seen it all.
All has been foretold.
Now...

Now it's time for power
now it's time for change
for those who've been chosen
to follow their fate
dying in glory or living to serve
This final battle will lead us to hell

So it's been written and so it shalt be
powerful evil will fall on its knees
Warriors almighty deliver this land
avengers of sorrow, this ultimate stand

Battles in the twilight, all the way to hell
Written in the pages of the past lies our fate
Battles in the twilight, on and on I sing
Ancient tales forgotten I will tell you all my friends

[Guitar Solo: Marco]

I have come from ancient land
I have come from far
I will tell you all the stories that should not be told
of the power and the glory

Forbidden tales of the battles in the twilight
I'm the one that will bring you the truth
Ancient words will be spoken in the twilight
battle hymns will arise
Have I been chosen to see another day?
Have I been chosen to tell another tale?

I am the bard (the one who's calling)
I am the bard (the chosen one)
(I am the bard) the one who's calling
(I am the bard) the chosen one

All has been foretold
Tales have all been told
All is said and done

Battles in the twilight, all the way to hell
Written in the pages of the past lies our fate
Battles in the twilight, on and on I sing
Ancient tales forgotten I will tell you all my friends

[Guitar Solo: Marco]

Now it's time for power
now it's time for change
those who've been chosen
will follow their fate

Armies facing in the twilight
Armies facing in the twilight
I am the bard, I've seen it all
I am the bard, I've seen it all

2. Shores Of My Land

[Michela D'Orlando, Marco Cecconi]

A stranger will come sent by the Gods
his land lies destroyed
A king comes to build a new throne
Beautiful Ilium your name is well known
rumours have brought us the news of your fall
I see your ruin I see my own I see my own

Heroes of the land take your lances in your hands
put your armour on follow me to the shore
we shall gather at the ships we shall face the foreign king
We shall win

Shores of my land, war will be soon
blood onto you
will flow as the flames will arise
Powerful heroes your names will be known
None will forget of your pride and your worth
I see your ruin I warn you all
rumours of war

Heroes of the land take your lances in your hands
put your armour on follow me to the shore
we shall gather at the ships we shall face the foreign king
We shall win

[Guitar Solo: Marco]
[Guitar Solo: Mauro]

No more I'll wonder at the sun rising from this waters deep
Trojan ships are sailing through heading for this land
Merciless Gods who never mind of mortal men
my time is at hand but proud I will stand
Souls of the elder welcome me when I have gone
my fate is sealed my battle is lost
And I am lost with my land
all I have done after all it has been in vain.

He comes from the fabled Troy
Aeneas his name
Shores of mine... Shores in flames.

3. Evillot

[Marco Cecconi, Michela D'Orlando]

Sinister as the day of my birth
death descends, shades the stormy north
Snow covered peaks will be painted with stains red of blood
as the anthem begins
Echoes the chanting, the oath has been taken
under the ominous sky
Chaos has begun

[Guitar Solo: Marco]

Evil I serve
beware of his command
Evil I serve
upon my word I swear
Evil I serve
I scorn the light of the scorching sun.

Feel the will, utter the raving words
swear the oath to my rightful lord
Eve of the blooding, I'm leaving this world sick of light
to return nevermore
Stronger then ever, uncanny like never before
is the power I feel
Chaos has begun.

[Guitar Solo: Marco]

Evil I serve
beware of his command
Evil I serve
upon my word I swear
Evil I serve
to scorn the light of the scorching sun

Eve of the blooding, the change is not complete
and goodness overcomes me
memories are talking to me
They speak to me, they scream to me, they tell me things
They say I've gone astray...
They say "You've gone astray"
Maleficent fate.

But echoes the anthem arcane from the depth
Evil I serve
beware of his command
Evil I serve
I've gone too far from the scorching sun

Sinister is his warning upon the wind
my Lord has come to torment me, grinning at my agony
He knows I crave for light... He knows I crave for the scorching sun
Sinister and ominous was the day of my beginning
the darkest day, the final pain, slowly ends and fades
and I crave for light... I crave for the scorching sun
Sinister and evil-hearted as I am from my beginning
I crave for light... I crave for the sun to shine.

4. The Curse Of Every Man

[Marco Cecconi, Michela D'Orlando]

Nothing in life will last
Now has become past
If memories are just like dreams
they'd fade like never been

They leave you alone
feeling cold as stone
alone and crying out

with nowhere to hide
and a merciful lie
won't save you for the night

Won't ease your sorrow
Who knows sorrow better than me?
Who didn't make mistakes?
Who can blame me now more then myself?
But still won't help to bear the curse of every man

The curse of every man
forget and err again
The curse of every man
forget and err again

Time heals everything
Time long past, gone numbering tears
Ashamed to think of my own life
When light fades from the sky

Drifting away
Numbing the pain
Alone and crying out

Ever afraid
As the day slip away
Ever on my way to hell

[Guitar Solo: Mauro]

Night shelter me
Save me from the cruel light of day
Spare my eyes
The cruel sight of what I truly am

[Guitar Solo: Marco]

The curse of every man
forget and err again
The curse of every man
forget and err

5. Inferno Suite

[M. D'Orlando, M. Cecconi, C. Berra.]

6. Into The Shadowed Forest

"Dies irae, dies illa, solvet seclum in favilla
teste David cum Sibilla
Quanto tremor est futurus, quando iudex est venturus
cunta stricte discussurus" [from the Dies Irae, Mass in Latin]

Veni mecum ad Inferna

"When I had journeyed half of our life's way
I found myself within a shadowed forest
for I had lost the path that does not stray" [from Dante's Inferno]

7. Inferno

"Virgil, are you a shade or a man?
Shade am I, that once was man" [from Dante's Inferno]

[Guitar Solo: J.J.Angel]

Vergelius (Vergelius be my guide) will guide you (You all )
beyond the gates of Hell
You'll join eternal darkness
You'll see the souls that died in sin (Like yourself)
your eyes will burn eternally

"Virgil, are you a shade or a man?" [from Dante's Inferno]

Show me the place where I'll be damned
I have never seen Hell
Vergelius leads me hand in hand
stumbling step by step
Down to the place where I'll be damned
Charon ferries souls
on lurid waters
that darken on the way
for those who fell from grace

"The gates of Hell are open wide
I hear the spirits' cry in the dawnless everlasting night
Justice divine (This is the place of doom)
has weigh'd the doom is clear (Sighs and wailings loud)
all hope renounce ye lost who enter here" [from Dante's Inferno]

"Virgil, embark with me on Charon's boat" [from Dante's Inferno]

Show me the place where I'll be damned
I have never seen Hell
Vergelius leads me hand in hand
stumbling step by step
Down to the place where I'll be damned
Charon ferries souls
on lurid waters
that darken on the way
for those who fell from grace

8. Confutatis

I know I lived my life in sin, pride and greed, wrath and lust
and all of the seven sins
damnation Virgil, I've always known is awaiting me
for all eternity

Confutatis maledictis flammis acribus addictis
Voca me cum benedictis oro supplex et acclinis" [from the Confutatis Maledictis, Mass in Latin]

I fell from grace, I will be damned

Vergelius will guide you, you all
"All hope renounce ye lost who enter here." [from Dante's Inferno]

"And we with no more words delay, went
forward on that hard and dreadful way " [from Dante's Inferno]

9. I Am The Bard

[Marco Cecconi, Michela D'Orlando]

I am the bard
I have seen it all
