Oh something has changed Anomalies unknown The structure of the void is reshaped A universe reborn All purity of night has been stained The alpha hour brings life into distant worlds A fraction of a second is all that it takes To turn the darkest night into day Monotonous blackness pushed aside Erased once and for all Coordinated particles swarm through space Never to return again Amorphous creation is taking place Antimatter conquering the unknown The laws of science broken and bent Merging future and past A simple mind cannot comprehend For only chaos remains Mysteries Locked away In the center of The universe So it has begun With endless tales forged in the stars And the void forced to stand down As the rays of million suns came undone From the fiery heart Masses are emerging Entropy increasing to infinity A miracle unwitnessed An army of suns Marching to eternity Here... Lies the key... To the mysteries Locked away In the center of The universe So it has begun With endless tales forged in the stars And the void forced to stand down As the rays of million suns came undone

Awake... Awake... The winds are resting calm The world is standing still Its body seems pure but the spirit has been killed Nature may die with all life petrified Prayers to the skies for a single storm to rise A thousand sights turn to the sky A thousand ravens cry As the vernal breeze transforms Into a thousand raging storms Coat the earth with thousand scars As the black rays of dead stars Bathe the world in hollow lights In this darkest of dark nights The tides have turned All mercy has been burned The air now filled with dust and mud The ground engulfed in filthy blood As sharp winds rip flesh apart Of a thousand dying hearts A thousand souls cry out in pain A thousand tears fall down in vain A thousand lives face their end A thousand dreams crushed in our hands A storm of fire sets the world ablaze Turns the ground into a neverending maze There is no point in running away Where one life starts, a thousand more end! And so the world burns down Death reigns every town We stand hand in hand And wait for our end Only silence survives When the fire takes our lives One last time we watch the sky To say goodbye And nothing remains Volition has been slain Fires so fierce The world burns in the end Its body seems wrecked But the spirit has been cleansed With deafening sound The ground turned upside down The maelstroms shall rage Chaos will rise again Nature is suffering from the aftermath of war That plagued this world for centuries like a parasitic disease To cleanse the stains of cruelty, hell must break loose To shake the walls of reality, all mercy refused And so the world burns down Death reigns every town We stand hand in hand And wait for our end Only silence will survive When the fire takes our lives One last time we watch the sky To say goodbye The stars are burning bright In the fiery sky The air now filled with dust and mud The ground engulfed in filthy blood As sharp winds rip flesh apart Of a thousand dying hearts A thousand souls cry out in pain A thousand tears fall down in vain A thousand lives face their end A thousand dreams crushed in our hands A thousand rocks descend from space A thousand skulls will find their graves A thousand songs forever fade A thousand times we have paid

Utopia 06:13
"Truths are easy to understand, The point is to discover them" (Galileo Galilei) Take me to a place where pain's just a tale Far across the weakness of man A realm where years count for nothing To blur the line between life and death An idea for man to heed trembling To leave all sickness and never look back In my journey I follow the signs Shining across the sky Leaving the shores once and for all Come what may come Go and leave all the rest To the unforgiving past No more chains free from sadness and woe This is where you're reborn So long my son You are free from your sins You have arrived Utopia Chasing an idea I have seen in my dreams Obsessed by a glimpse of freedom and ease A refuge amidst my despair Only to be seen through the eyes of the blind Those who are free from the clutch of corruption Remain immortal till the end of time "Whoever sets himself up as a judge At last is shipwrecked by the laughter of Gods" (Albert Einstein) As twilight surrounds me I feel lost and betrayed But deep down I know Salvation awaits And although we're just dust The legacy must live on Bigger than you and me A symbol for the Gods A symbol of strength For noone shall ever break my will A symbol of pride For the mind shall always be free In my journey I follow the signs Shining across the sky Leaving the shores once and for all Come what may come Go and leave all the rest To the unforgiving past No more chains Free from sadness and woe This is where you're reborn So long, my son You are free from your sins You have arrived Utopia

All the constants are defined Elliptic arcs have been shaped This is the point of no return We saw the fabric of the stars Following the void to the ends of time and space Perspectives shifted thousandfold There are no choices left to make For we are only grains in endless shores Elements fall prey to the bitterness of time A cosmic catastrophe draws near The quasar glow invisible henceforth Our limit inevitably reached Even if all the centuries fade away Even if all the worlds become one in shadows and dust We remain the same As we turn into one One we become Scattered worlds are longing for unity once more Their solitary paths find an end When blind submission gains control And countless roads are leading them astray Powerless we drift into the eye of the storm The spiral's endless thirst cannot be quenched When novas will illuminate the night History repeats itself again Even if all the centuries fade away Even if all the worlds become one in shadows and dust We remain the same Unite, face your fears No escape, no empathy Oh, give in to gravity Oh, no pain, no agony And this never ending path becomes clear Even though we tremble in fear we will not walk away from fate We crossed the line this time, in darkness we unite We fell from grace this time a phantom sacrifice All ceased, all burned All gone, all is one Singularity

Tides so powerful, unmerciful The instance we breathe to live again The order died, so new ways can rise The moment we can't recall our past This frozen hell, it bids us farewell We're bound to a force we can't conceive Crystallized, immortalized The world is not what we believed Don't fall into desperation Cycles repeat again and again It is the natural way of all things Embrace the end This incarnation will soon be replaced This is the dawn The next iteration is put to the test To give up our reign When our generation is not meant to least This is our fall The whole world is burning and sinks into Revolution, evolution's end The smell of death lies in the air Forever cursed in nature's spell Aphelion, oblivion In a dead man's lunacy we dwell Riots lay waste over towns Sweeping the seas and the skies Monuments reduced to rubble and ash And requiems are sung for the dead Oh, an absence of faith Chaos shall reign Loved ones may die Hope might cease Tomorrow will come And we strive for justice And we strive for peace But in the end We won't prevail This incarnation will soon be replaced This is the dawn The next iteration is put to the test To give up our reign When our generation is not meant to least This is our fall The whole world is burning and sinks into Revolution, evolution's end Evolution's end The end will come for us So tenacious If you lose your trust Don't be anxious When there is no choice Hush your inner voice You'll be born again Evolution's end

Nothing will ever be the same There's a the dark corruption spreading Deep inside our vains "Downward is the only way, " she said "Lets aim for the skies", he replied "The maelstrom takes us all, " she said "We stay strong and survive" "Nothing we can do, " she said "Hold on to faith, " he assures "It can't save us from ourselves" "It's always in our might to choose" Like a shadow at our back Judgement comes at last And time will take us all We are stained by mortality The foundation of doom we leave behind This is our destiny "We're not born to die, " he said "Nor meant to last, " she replied "Why are you afraid, " he asks "I dream of the end of times" "None of which is true, " he claims "The horrors that I see in the night" "We'll live to see another day" Right from the start it's been too late Like a demon from within Judgement closing in And time will take us all We are stained by mortality The foundation of doom we leave behind This is our destiny and our legacy Take one last deep breath 'Cause our final sentence is death Nothing will ever break the chain We are merely puppets acting in a bigger play "Do you start to realize, " she cries "Now I see, " he concedes Rivers pouring from her eyes There is nothing left to believe And our fate is sealed, my friend Every deed takes its toll Passing weakness till the end Carrying flaws in our blood Like an hourglass running dry Judgement has arrived And time will take us all We are stained by mortality The foundation of doom we leave behind This is our fate And time will take us all We are stained by mortality The foundation of doom we leave behind This is our destiny and our legacy Take one last deep breath 'Cause our final sentence is death

It's time to return... I am not a part of you I am not willing to be seen Cause I am more than meets the eye I'm not a part of this world I cannot be found Yet I keep on waiting To come undone Unstable equilibrium's driving two worlds apart A great divide to last for all times Since the separation I am hiding in the dark A mystery not meant to be revealed Oh to end my slumber I'd break every rule Untouchable, yet so real... An aspect purer than light A taste of the divine Follow me through the vortex Take a step beyond Break the concept Let the past collapse Open the doorway To this new dimension As you start to realize Everything you know Is neither truth nor lies Everything's bright Behind the curtain of space But mind your eyes Everything has a price And sometimes you can turn blind From what you might find Once you open the gate Between dimensions I'm standing guard Once I'm awakened I'll devour the stars Blessings from Heaven, curses from Hell Welcome to the ever-changing realms Visions Visions Visions of death and rebirth Of a second chance To rise anew To delete the past New horizons Old conventions Will collapse Everything's bright Behind the curtain of space But mind your eyes 'Cause everything you know Everything you know is lies Gateway for a different tale Two sides that can't coexist Gateway for a different fate Only one can persist An aspect purer than light A taste of the divine Follow me through the vortex Take a step beyond Break the concept Let the past collapse Open the doorway To this new dimension As you start to realize Everything you know Is neither truth nor lies Everything's bright Behind the curtain of space But mind your eyes Everything has a price And sometimes you can turn blind From what you might find Once you open the door Between dimensions I'm standing guard Once I'm awakened I'll devour the stars Blessings from Heaven, curses from Hell Welcome to the ever-changing realms Blessings from Heaven, curses from Hell Welcome to never-ending decay
