Featherless

Homer tell my story:
My damned fate bathes in reflected glory.
Love is the devotion calling
Not a means for suffering.
Featherless I’m bound to be
Envious of you eternally.
No one has escaped the siren’s wailing
None deny me when I sing.
Carried away, I don’t know how to erase you.
Oh how I long to cut your heart in two!
Not my destiny to lose,
Still I’m sinkin’ into deeper Blues.
As your sails are fading in the sky
Let my voice soar high.
Carried away, I don’t know how to erase you.
Oh how I long to cut your heart in two!

Pumping the Vein

I can’t contain my spirit, agony is from within
Long for compassion, control, shut me in.
I can even hear my heartbeat and my chest is going to blow,
Pounding! Stall my breathing. Chocking! No air can flow.
Thinkin’ is getting thicker and in my head there’s no way out,
Anxiety’ s a whisper, turning into a shout:
Pain, pain pumping the vein
My whole existence is pain.
There’s a monster in the corner right when I close my eyes
I can feel it getting closer guilt comes in every size.
“Why can’t you hear me mama, please make it go away?”
Silence keeps on ringin’ my soul can’t lay lay lay.
No one can understand me, no time for falling out.
Anxiety, turning into a shout:
Pain, pain pumping the vein
My whole existence is pain.
Hold me, somebody help I’m falling
I feel the darkness in my eye,
Hold me, this emptiness surrounds me
I know my kingdom is a lie.

The Watchers of Enoch
06:09
|

|
The Holy One will appear, high mountains shake and fear
And those hiding in all ends of the Earth will sing “God”.
The chosen then will rejoice, no sinner had a choice,
So a curse will abide on men who fate denied.
Then Shemihazah led unholy childbirth
As they began to haunt the Earth
In devouring the labor of their kin.
Watchers of the Earth I warn you:
Your reign is ending and your God will rise above you.
Your reign is ending now!
The blood of men stains the soil cometh down black as oil.
Cleanse the Earth, purify, the Giants soon will die
And Azrael will burn for he won’t see the light
As fires steal away the night.
Divine punishment, the Flood will bring the end.
Watchers of the Earth I warn you:
Your reign is ending and your God will rise above you.
Your reign is ending.
Watchers of the Earth I warn you:
Your reign is ending and your sons will die before you.
You’re doomed the end is nigh.

Συμπληγάδες
07:09

Σπάει την άβυσσο φωτιά στον ουρανό
Που την κεντάνε νύχτα οι Πλειάδες,
Η Μοίρα θα χορεύει με το Θάνατο
Όταν θα κλείνουνε οι Συμπληγάδες.
Εκεί που πάμε θα ‘μαστε οι ζωντανοί,
Σαν αστραπή στη νυχτωδία
Που θα φωτίσει όσους έπεσαν νεκροί,
αυτούς που έπνιξε η αγωνία.

Your Majesty
04:57
|
|||
|
Fanfare and banners for the accolade,
On the altar lies a pillow with a shiny blade.
The arrival of the irony
I can make a better ceremony than you do for me.
I have seen the essence of blood, flesh and bone
Amputation for the royalty sitting on the throne.
Might and magic, heavy iron sky
I can see no hero when the blade is right before my eye.
I’m not your kind and I won’t bow to you,
The plains of fallen knights hallowed for shaming you.
In the sky the coat of arms but the flag is painted red
Your Majesty I refuse. Your kingdom’s for the dead.
Eight pawns, two bishops, two knights for the King
Sacrificing in a gambit dance around the Queen.
I know fire ain’t no sorcery
There is no tomorrow when the children man the armory.
I’m not your kind and I won’t bow to you,
The plains of fallen knights hallowed for shaming you.
In the sky the coat of arms but the flag is painted red
Your Majesty I refuse. Your kingdom’s for the dead.

Father Wind

Father Wind watch over me, so I may rise
Against the storm, blow away the rain.
Devotion.
Mother Flame shine over me, the sea is dark,
You cast away the fear of the unknown.
Intuition.
Fare thee well sweet land of mine, deep down I know
When to sail on and when to sail away.
Wisdom.
Lady Luck stay on my side, don’t let me down.
This endless blue is all I ask of you.
Freedom.
Our souls united, they merge into one.
This band of vagabonds we are: au revoir.
But I can’t hear you.
Stand fast. The wind is at our back, lead the attack.
I still can’t hear you.
Head on, against all odds we are the hurricane!

Heart of the Sea
06:39
|
|||
|
We breath in silence eyes gazing far away
An inner spark of adventure, an oath to obey
The distant, horizon, mirage of hopes and dreams
Enlightening, perdition, approaching thunder screams
The winds are roaring, omen of war
Maritime tribulation, abandoning the shore
Relentless, triumphant, until the end of time
Baptized, by fire, propelled into the night
Dies irae, salt and embers fill the air
Vitae Gloria, Sinking in euphoria
Now hand of fate, reveals her final form
Our souls reborn oceanic, and tempered by the storm
Relentless, triumphant, until the final call
Voracious, Leviathan, this time devours all

Hekate
07:51
|
|||
|
The Thracian cult is blazing, the torches align
The crossroad is three-way facing, a ghost in the shrine.
Nocturnal bound her majesty
Dark practice of the flame and alchemy,
A feather charm and ivory
Her spell is calling me.
A silhouette inside a crystal cave
Her shadow mesmerizing.
Three dogs surrounding her in harmony
Necromancy is rising!
Canes dimite dea nocti
Nympha malefica Hekate.
The might of the brave is falling, three sisters of fate
And silvery moon enthralling, a spiral of hate.
Her prisoners all deafen me
Mad voices as they shout indefinitely.
A pair of crooked horns appear on her
A stare inducing madness.
“Hekate I succumb to thee, my soul
Surrender into darkness”.
