1 The Labyrinth

Walls of ice
up to the sky
imprison the soul
the exit may be near or far
but you have to roll a dice
fate is your guide
a blind man gives you sight
now you can go
you are the son of the ancient god
find the entrance
only from there you can go out
remembering the past
before even being alive
from death you cannot escape
but from the chains, yes,
those same chains that bind your father
the king of heaven hates your birth
because he knows destiny
Now the deaf teach you to hear
feel the walls vibrate
life is not real
you must die before you can walk
you will know your destiny
if your mouth tastes
the blood of the king
if your mouth tastes
the blood of the king
you can be reborn

2 The King Of The Sky

bow to the king of heaven Archimedes
give him your knowledge
now it is he who possesses the sphere
that keeps the minds orderly
paradise is everywhere
Archimedes advises the king
someone is trying to climb
the sacred mountain
alone are those who believe in the elements
because no one else can feel them
no one can touch the earth
and bathe in the sea
no one can breathe
only the king can do it
we all want his paradise
because his paradise is everywhere
but now a damned monster
crawls on the ground
and his eyes are fiery

3 The Ancient God
05:32
|

hidden in the bottom of the earth
sleeps an Ancient God
I saw his face carved in the rock
his mouth open ravenous for limbs
his mouth open ravenous for limbs
only a hero can escape him
can escape him
a man told me not to look into his eyes
because fear is its bait
but I looked and saw two white eyes and one black
his eyes were frightening and cruel
his eyes were frightening and cruel

4 The Oracle
06:53

King it’s time
to cut off your throne
or you’ll lose your mind
madness is not abstract
can be good or evil
King it’s time to cut the sky
a breath can be
the first or the last
madness is not abstract
can be good or evil
The stars
have changed their light.
A vision can be true or false
King it’s time to decide
a tower can reach up to the sky
or descend into the depths
Hades shares his kingdom with a black dog
you can only climb from the bottom
and you are already high
Evil can be a plant or an animal
can bear fruit or children
I speak the divine language of fate
nobler than any sovereign
I am the Oracle
I see wings falling from the sky
swallowed by sharks
I am the Oracle
Follow in the footsteps of Midas
and you will lose yourself
Think yourself strong as the god of thunder
and you will fall like lightning
Run like the wind
and you’ll go back to where you started
Evil can be a plant or an animal
can bear fruit or children
Hades shares his kingdom with a black dog
King it’s time to decide
The stars
have changed their light.
King it’s time to Fight

5 Nightmare
06:07
|

I dreamed of being a burning tree and not being able to escape, not being able to scream
slowly the flames rose fed by the wind
the water in my body fell while my branches became
ashes
I saw my shape changed into eagle and fish
The eagle shouted his wrath
the fish was searching in the abyss
Fierce claws soared up to prepare for revenge.
At the same time I discovered the depths of my soul
to find the evil that had imprisoned me
It was then that I saw him drinking from a golden cup
my screams of pain.
It was then that I saw him devour my heart
still alive in his hand

The sacred throne has collapsed Glory to the triumph of the Snake The crown has fallen Groly to the triumph of the Snake The earth has returned to its former glory Glory to the triumph of the Snake The blood has returned to wet the earth Glory to the triumph of the Snake The forest has no borders the crow has returned to reign The rotten flesh of the defeated king is now the meal of the animals Hades and Demeter are laughing because Kore is back to dance Death walks with its scythe to take the last man The son of Adam can no longher stay Glory to the triumph of the Snake
