Lend me your steel-bearing hand
So I may reign the Jewel Throne My soul feels the gods' demand As the lost kings uphold my side Blood and sand Mark their way The usurper's tears Guide my sword Fantasia slept in my thoughts As I was a son of infinity The emperor, forgotten, rests in my dreams As, back to the wall, I start the conquest Innocence and wrath Now lie far beyond As we cross the deserts To reach the fortress gates Tragical serenades Are whispered in the wind As eyes in fury Grant us our strength (They're) throning on the dignity of might But the successor is to enter the hall False truth saw them climbing the steps But I remain the Jewel Throne's choice |

Once prayed to my gods, searching for the whistled memories
Empty eyes are staring now, to my feet a land of sorrow I'm the king, sitting in the dark, hiding from the shadows of the wind Wafts of might, wine of fire, I was called to taste Silver horses brought us here, to the edge of the universe We left the falling walls as the stars' collapse began Now I rest on the highest steps, revealed the eternal frontier As I gaze from the Jewel Throne to the portal of infinity Fallen have the "chosen ones", debris remain in the dust Far behind, beyond the sands, the wind sings to those who fell Forever now, my hands laid down the poisoned weapons I will pray to my gods, searching for the mysteries |

The pyramids tremble, darken the sun, (the) sky tums red
They reached the wall of no return (and the) breeze has stopped Who wore the crown will never be known - might is broken For all we'll drown into the sand - what will remain? Inverted horizons, denied truth and blinded eyes The titans arise, the monuments fall, we cannot halt Wishful pleads at last came true, some always knew The clouds burn - or is it fire? ... the gods wince Human pride and megalomania, the titans watched it all The trace led to nowhere, wrath had to come As ushers at the gates, to ecstasy and excess AII turn their backs, they won't give us any rest (The) fires won't redeem, illuminated's the night - the eternal summer When they came high from the sphere on shrieking wings... Now they're trapped to the ground, to heat and dust And the eye is glowing above... |

After the battle is over
And the sands drunken the blood All what there remains Is the bitterness of delusion The immortality of the gods Sits at their side As they leave the walls behind To reach the jewel's gleam The days have come When the steel will rule And upon his head A crown of gold Your hand wields the might The tyrant's the precursor You carry the will As the morning is near I sing the ballads Of victory and defeat I hear the tales Of frozen mystery The new kingdoms rise By the circle of the tyrants In the land of darkness The warrior, that was me Grotesque glory None will ever see them fall And hunts and war Are like everlasting shadows Where the winds cannot reach The tyrant's might was born And often I look back With tears in my eyes Grotesque glory None will ever see them fall And hunts and wars Are like everlasting shadows |

Try to see through fainted views
As reality disappears in haze A journey between eternal walls The senses unfold before my eyes As the endless dreams begin to reign And my hands slip off the edge The waters grow dumb While they descend (behind) Fainted eyes Drifting in the streams of wisdom While recognizing all those banal tales Sin beyond truth, (I see) glimmering splinters Encountering my past in flickering whispers While they drown behind their frontiers And the rulers sink in agony Fallacy and false idols Unbelievable is the human direction But the screams die away in the distance Try to see through fainted views But the dust still covers all my dreams I wouldn't tell you anyway |

Necromantical screams
Only you are deaf Is there life beyond death? You entreated death, the answer will come Oebris of faith, even you are false Immortal morals, catch up with time Vault of darkness, filled with hate Deny life, addiction to death Procession of damnation, expulsion of light Hazardous ways into the rush Soul is frozen and flesh is weak Necromantical screams Only you are deaf Intelligence is mute Respect and thoughts, buried long ago Pleading for the end, blind and dumb We won't feel, there could be more I will remain alone in the dark ...Only you are deaf |

Dreaming eyes
Hope to return As shadows fall onto Distorted paths Delivered from the fetters of light Drifting back into my reality The subconscious deprecates the day In the twilight of my own intellect Dull is my mind Captive of illusion Remaining awake Is just dust Take my soul away into the dark Dreaming a thousand morbid dreams No tomorrow when the wind caresses my mind Could I ever return, it would be my doom Obsessed by the nightmare's sound Drifting back into realms of chaos Reality has become my dream I'll be covered by the abyss' ground An endless fall Memories in the light Frontiers of chaos Return to the eve |
