Chapter III – Downfall

There’s a storm in the air, it’s coming closer I can tell that we swim in trouble waters And the fate of the worlds, above and under Unstable like fire We look up to the sky to find the answer What’s the meaning of pain without a sweetener Decipher the ultimate enigma Is this a lie? We circle But where’s our faith? Inner battles When the flame is back they fade away Fade away, away I’ll rise above the waves of this insanity Bring back the shimmering light, the might of a miracle Before the shadows arise, I will embrace Eternal rains At the edge of the world of contradictions Cultivating our pain through your ambition To expand the scope of your horizon We consume the daily poison We look down to the ground just to feel safer Silencing the dream of rising higher Obedient betrayers of our own mind Is this a crime? We circle But where’s our faith? Inner battles When the flame is back they fade away Fade away, away I’ll rise above the waves of this insanity Bring back the shimmering light, the might of a miracle Before the shadows arise, I will embrace Eternal rains Fade away with me Eternity awaits When the ground is shaking Salvation is a silent dream so far away I will wait for a new dawn, a new day A new chance to fade away Fade away, away I’ll rise above the waves of this insanity Bring back the shimmering light, the might of a miracle Before the shadows arise, I will embrace Eternal rains

Time is up and finally your judgment day arrives You will face the consequences of your games and lies The end arrived, it took you by surprise It's like a free fall until you reach the ground Listen, time is up and there is no way out Welcome to the hallways of the Underworld So you prey for the very first time But no one is listening This is your last sundown There is no way home When your heart is no longer beating I wonder if it ever did There is no way home And there's no peace for the wicked Deceiver, they're dancing on your grave Dancing on your grave You made your life look like a dream, distorted paradise To elevate yourself above the people you despise Memories of a sinful life Raining on you, now you realise You see, time has come for you to pay the price Welcome to the gates of The End of Your Lies See your last sundown There is no way home When your heart is no longer beating I wonder if it ever did There is no way home And there's no peace for the wicked Deceiver, they're dancing on your grave Dancing on your grave Remorses are starting to crawl under your skin A sudden rash of guilt So you prey for the very last time But no one is listening Say your last goodbye There is no way home When your heart is no longer beating I wonder if it ever did There is no way home And there's no peace for the wicked Deceiver There is no way home And there's no peace for the wicked Deceiver, they're dancing on your grave Dancing on your grave

I close my eyes I imagine your world oh There's a cloud in the back of my mind I see you thrive In the meadows of bliss But I sense there's a storm on the horizon of your lies Open your eyes The melody of your cries Resounds in the sky So I sail away In this game, everybody's losing The symphony of your crimes Echoes in the clouds As you hide your pain Peace of mind, you're far away from trying I see your pride Trying to be divine oh There's a twist in the plot of your crime A tragedy The whole world is yours But I sense there's a hunger in you you can't satisfy Open your eyes The melody of your cries Resounds in the sky So I sail away In this game, everybody's losing The symphony of your crimes Echoes in the clouds As you hide your pain Peace of mind, you're far away from trying It all starts like a lullaby A wonderful once upon a time But as soon as the sun goes down Here comes the smell of the rotten flesh again It goes on with a blade in the heart Calculation, betraying your own blood To ascent to a higher ground You'll carry the weight of your sins Until the gates of the underworld Open your eyes The melody of your cries Resounds in the sky So I sail away In this game, everybody's losing The symphony of your crimes Echoes in the clouds As you hide your pain Peace of mind, you're far away from trying

Walk me through the darkness I'll be fine again Whispers of the sleepless Put my mind in chains No expression to be found Faceless mirror, tell my why Just a voice yet to resound Before my judgment day arrives Lay me down On a bed of dying roses and Hold your cries Fearless is my heart Bring me back Where the rays of sun And the rivers bright Carry hopes and dreams To the light I've seen joy and sadness I gave life and death Away from the surface My happiness is lost, I'm falling down Here under the burning skies My final moment has arrived Flesh and bones return to dust Keep my memory alive Lay me down On a bed of dying roses and Hold your cries Fearless is my heart Bring me back Where the rays of sun And the rivers bright Carry hopes and dreams To the light Come for me, eternity Lay me down On a bed of dying roses and Hold your cries Fearless is my heart Bring me back Where the rays of sun And the rivers bright Carry hopes and dreams To the light

I know the mysteries I am your misery Spreading my wings to fly and conquer My way But when the night falls I am all you long for Every night in your dreams I am here to stay Call out my name I'll be your hero Your moonlight, your sorrow A scar left on your heart forever Always been dancing in the fire Igniting desire Architect of paradise I want the power and the desire To be the one who whets your hunger Intimidate you And persuade you I'll be the one who'll rule the world Your world Call out my name I'll be your hero Your moonlight, your sorrow A scar left on your heart forever Always been dancing in the fire Igniting desire Architect of paradise Born and raised To walk through fire and flames I can take it Bring it on, bring it on No time to look back The future is mine Relentless, alive I am your hero Call out my name I'll be your hero Your moonlight, your sorrow A scar left on your heart forever Always been dancing in the fire Igniting desire Welcome to my paradise

You can feel when the colours fade in the sorrows of the twilight In your dreams, only sceneries of despair and demise Does it feel like an endless road on a mountain that you climb In the end, torments fly away like cinders in the wind Memories of all these ashes Thunder in a broken heart Your destiny is not in the abyss of your doubts Your cries Take the pain, take the rain They'll fade away Save your tears and rise again And your fears, now an echo Of the one you once were The serpent's downfall Oh, the Serpent's downfall There is a light, there is a spark of hope at the edge of the night Break free, rise above fire, leave it all behind Sail away from all the darkness Keep your head above the clouds Remember there is a dying sun you can ignite Inside Take the pain, take the rain They'll fade away Save your tears and rise again And your fears, now an echo Of the one you once were The serpent's downfall Oh, the Serpent's downfall The serpent's fall The darkness is gone, what are you waiting for Downfall In goodness we trust, now we thrive, don't you let go! Take the pain, take the rain They'll fade away Save your tears and rise again And your fears, now an echo Of the one you once were The serpent's downfall Oh, the Serpent's downfall

In the hallways of eternity, their names echo, defying the laws of time Thousands of years of evolution later, we light a candle to salute them But the wind of our sins expels its flame, leaving us again and again in the ignorant darkness I watch the seasons die Still this melody repeats again We prey for a second chance, in vain To change, to heal the world we set in flames Our legacy, ruins and tears, a wasteland Evolution is a lie we all fell for Now all I want to know is the reason why Why can't we learn and rise Above the inferno I hear the angels cry Before they fall Why can't we realize And break the cycle Open up the gates of Heaven Once more They went through storms and told their tales So we could learn to sail another way Blindfolded fools, this is the age of madness Evolution is a plague we all ignored Can anyone explain the reason why Why can't we learn and rise Above the inferno I hear the angels cry Before they fall Why can't we realize And break the cycle Open up the gates of Heaven Once more If only we could learn and rise Above the inferno I hear the angels cry Before they fall Why can't we realize And break the cycle Open up the gates of Heaven Once more
