1. Release Me
Hiding from the sunlight, dimensions of the dark
Banished from the living, no life dwells in my heart
Oh, how I would like to feel the sun against my skin
But the time has passed and it's lost
I struggle with the guidelines, I cannot follow through
It hurts inside my body, I know what I must do
But how can I give in and carry on this wicked sin
It tortures my soul deep within
All that takes is a bite (No more pain just desire)
Never ending desires
Release me, form the pain that I am in
Where darkness surrounds, draws me into the night
Release me, from the twilight I am in
Moving away from the light
Close now to insanity, voices in my head
Tell me I must give in, the pain will go away
How easy it would be to give in and feel the peace
It's all an illusion, a lie
All that takes is a bite (No more pain, only pure desire)
Never ending desires
Release me, from the pain that I am in
Where darkness surrounds, draws me into the night
Release me, from the twilight I am in
Moving away from the light
Release me, from the pain that I am in
Where darkness surrounds, draws me into the night
Release me, from the twilight I am in
Moving away from the light
Release me, from the pain that I am in
Where darkness surrounds, draws me into the night
Release me, from the twilight I am in
Moving away from the light
2. Strength Of Valhalla
Two are the ravens that fly through the land
Hear the sound of the giant wolf as he cries in the night
Away in the sea, in the ocean so blue
A serpent old as time roams in the deep
Giants and beasts, kept in a leach
Flash in the night (Thundering roar)
As it lights up the sky
The sign of a hammer, a mark from above
Striking with power, restoring the peace to the world
Showing no fear when battle is near
He's the strength of Valhalla, the bringer of fear
The God of thunder, weather and wind
See the ground is trembling, bound to his will
Out from his fortress, a sound fills the air
All in Asgard hail, honoring his might
Flash in the night (Thundering roar)
As it lights up the sky
The sign of a hammer, a mark from above
Striking with power, restoring the peace
Flash in the night (Thundering roar)
As it lights up the sky
The sign of a hammer, a mark from the Gods
Hear the roar in the night, a sign from the Thunder God
Flash in the night (Thundering roar)
As it lights up the sky
The sign of a hammer, a mark from the Gods
Striking with power, restoring the peace
Flash in the night (Thundering roar)
As it lights up the sky
The sign of a hammer, a mark from the Gods
Hear the roar in the night, a sign from the Thunder God
3. Dark Legacy
The morning sun has risen once again
Displace the signs that we can't see
That dwell in the night
Beyond this realm there's another one we cannot see
It's been hidden to our eyes
The path to go isn't there for the living
But for the spirits that died
Ruled by Hel
The hidden one
Keeper of souls
Realm of death
On frozen throne she stays so calm (As she looks into the sky)
With only memories on her side
She's the daughter of Loke, the spider he's named
Her siblings the serpent and wolf
She's cursed by the dark blood that runs in her veins
Forever she's damned by the Gods
No shadow gives you comfort
No arms can bring you warmth
No laughter is to hear only silence
No one can see the icy tears are falling
And the fire burning in her eyes
Smell of death
Rotting flesh
Cannot flee
Won't break free
On a frozen throne she stays so calm (As she looks into the sky)
With only memories on her side
She's the daughter of Loke, the spider he's named
Her siblings the serpent and wolf
She's cursed by the dark blood that runs in her veins
Forever she's damned by the Gods
The morning sun has risen once again
Displace the signs that we can't see
She's the daughter of Loke, the spider he's named
Her siblings the serpent and wolf
She's cursed by the dark blood that runs in her veins
Forever she's damned by the Gods
4. Uninvited Guest
Black is the night, the air is still
late is the hour for those that walk in the dark
Through the land floats a mist
Its mystical presence gives shelter for those who don't sleep
The moon is bright, it shines so strong
It seems so peaceful watching everyone
There's something moving deep in the mist
The ones awaken, those that will never rest
Eyes that watch every move
Driven by forces unknown to emerge and to feed
Listen to the master's call
Fear of obedience will push them and hunger so strong
Stay inside lock the doors and cellars
Never mind the sounds that you may hear
Say your prayers grab a crucifix
Come now let us in
In the night there are shadows floating
All for real or the mind just playing tricks?
Say your prayers grab a crucifix
Come now you will let us in
Burning pain through the vain
Kill for peace, an easy sacrifice
into the scene of a spectral vision
There comes a tide that is never ending
Whispering call from a new dimension
Bent through the ages and times
Times, times
Like a piece from a secret story
They are here the fear that we forgot
Close the doors and lock your windows
Uninvited guest
Like a piece from a secret story
They are here the fear that we forgot
Close the doors and lock your windows
Uninvited guest
5. Forever They Shall Kneel
Far away in the North, land of ice and stone
Growling force energy, rise in the dark and cold
Oath has been made, Niefelheim's rising
Treason releasing unstoppable powers
Bound by its will, their kingdom is coming
Cannot be held back no more
Eyes that see all that dwells, searching from above
Show them fear, sound the horn
Calling the Gods to war
Answers were made, Asgard is trembling
Ground starts to shiver as Bifrost is closed
No one is spared, like shadows they're falling
Tremble with fear as they die
Fire burning bright
And lightning rips the sky
Sounds of war and screams
Forever they shall kneel
The air was so quiet
And time seemed to be frozen
Suddenly a little boy cried out:
Tor, Oden help us
The ground started to tremble
And the sky was filled with lightning
The Gods have heard his call
Fire burning bright
And lightning rips the sky
Sounds of war and screams
Forever they shall kneel
Forever they shall kneel
Forever they shall kneel
6. God Of Gods
In the search for wisdom, and to find the highest truth
Grasp the universe, unveil the signs
Led onto this journey, driven forward by his will
Too many questions, no answer to give
But to get cognition, there's a price to pay
Set to offer a sacrifice
Obey the seer's will
Into the well of wisdom, he laid down his eye
To receive the might and the power
And forever he'll be the God of Gods
Never ending wisdom, and a kingdom of his own
In his fortress in Yggdrasil
Up on his throne he gives his wisdom to all
So give homage when you enter his hall
Into the well of wisdom, he laid down his eye
To receive the might and the power
And forever he'll be the God of Gods
Feel the winds from the North
And hear the voice from above
Runes of elder, given for us to see
All part of his prophecy
Into the well of wisdom
He laid down his eye
And received the might and power
And forever he'll be the God of Gods
7. Upon Your Icy Throne
What has become with your mind, foreseeing your fate
Cannot believe the image, deceiving your eyes
All were an image concealed the truth
But the motive was hidden, a shroud upon your eyes
No it's time to end the lie, come embrace the future sign
Blood will color every step
With anger and rage redo what they did hide
Claim the things that's yours to take
And take your place upon your icy throne
Out of control you're floating, twisted is your mind
darkness hides the truth, master of illusion
Words can be twisted, predictions shall stay
Believe what the seer has said
No it's time to end the lie
Come embrace the future sign
Blood will color every step
With anger and rage redo what they did hide
Claim the things that's yours to take
And take your place upon your icy throne
In blood your life begun
With blood they drained your mind
But the gates will hold no more
Let chaos take form
Inner fire burns your soul, it tears you up inside
Seduction, deception, life is just a lie
A new time awaits you, the fate is in your hands
No more enslaved, the mind and will combined
No it's time to end the lie
Come embrace the future sign
Blood will color every step
With anger and rage redo what they did hide
Claim the thing that's yours to take
And take your place upon your icy throne
8. Sancto Spirito
Ad vitam, aeternum, in gloriam
Sancto spirito
Ancient words were spoken, called upon the darkest night
Shattering the shadows from the light
Summoning what always was, and always has been
Nothingness awakes, now that the ritual begins
We will return
Ad vitam, aeternum, in gloriam
To glory once again
Sancto spirito
Ad vitam, aeternum, in gloriam
Behold the call from deep inside
Sancto spirito
All was silent all was dark, no light was to exist
Cold wind sweeps the surface, through the mist
Everlasting eyes are watching, never will they rest
All the thoughts that he creates, insert the breath of life
Stirring, moving, rising from deep inside
We'll return
Ad vitam, aeternum, in gloriam
To glory once again
Sancto spirito
Ad vitam, aeternum, in gloriam
Behold the call from deep inside
Sancto spirito
9. Break The Bounds
Creation starts to pounder, gives strength to wonders built in rage
Behold the new foundation, dark secrets works inside its shell
Deep inside it dwells
To go were darkness calls you, can only lead to misery
Don't need to take the key
Reveal its true damnation, break the bounds and see
It rises from its hollow, shadows cover all that's near
The goal to strike the powers, with blood avenge the master's will
To go were darkness calls you, can only lead to misery
Don't need to take the key
Reveal its true damnation, break the bounds and see
With heavy steps it walks, eyes fixed on the goal
Only one thing in mind, slaying of the Gods
The hammer flies, massive blow
Breaking flesh and bone, all in blood
To go were darkness calls you, can only lead to misery
Don't need to take the key
Reveal its true damnation, break the bounds and see
10. Sands Of Time
There's a place by the ocean, a tower near the shores
A quiet place, with sea breeze singing songs
it sings to the heavens, to Earth and the waves
Looking after the brave that travel across the sea
Sands of time
Concealed inside the waves
Embracing all life and wash away the pain
There are signs in the ocean, it's there for all to see
And memories held since the dawn of time
All being saved in the waters, no matter near or far
A promise was made, protected by the Gods
Sands of time
Concealed inside the waves
Embracing all life and wash away the pain
11. Battle Of Yggdrasil
Once again the sun arises with a shimmer that lights up the land
It speaks of chaos, fear and death as it colors the blood red sky
Sounds of thunder and powerful winds
That sweep through the landscape and mountains, roaring
From his seat he's watching the scene, deciding future guiding
Cause he knows from this, there is no turning back
And things that have been written revealing the prophecy
The ravens are flying searching the land
Giving news from the movements below
And all of the troops are secretly placed, awaiting what's yet to come
Far away the darkness appears, marching to the tree of life
From his seat he's watching the scene deciding future guiding
Cause he knows from this, there is no turning back
And things that have been written revealing the prophecy
A moment of silence
Movement gives away, massive and endless lines
Of fearsome war machines, ravaging all in sight
Thor holds his hammer high
Mjölner, go taste their blood
Oh, the shattering sound
As both sides collide
Screams fill the air
And the ground is soiled with blood
From a distance Allfader watches it all with sadness
So many brave have fallen, lie on the ground
How can this be? Wasn't this to last forever?
He bows his head, despair tears his heart
Destiny can never be written in stone
And bravery is forgotten if stories aren't told
Yet there is something that lives through ages and times
And heroes remain by legends from father to son
Still they live through the test of time
Glory, honor and pride
Opposite sides twisting the mind
Paradigms collide
Twisting, burning, ripping through ages and times
Legends tell of the end of the Gods
With many of the heroes died
From his seat he's watching the scene, deciding future guiding
And doors once locked will be opened again
The gate of Valhalla is open forevermore
From his seat he's watching the scene deciding future guiding
And doors once locked will be opened again
The gate of Valhalla is open forevermore
