1. The Journey And The Forsaken

(intro)

2. To Fall From The Heavens

From nightmares of pain
I return
To fathomless dreams
And damnation
Yet no dream is this
For I see
The world we fled
Ruined around me
By mighty hands
Swept away
The works of
Humanity
To what have I
Returned
What fate will
Befall me?

What brought me here
Back to this space
To beyond the stars
I long to return

My people
I hear them no longer
The gates have closed
Our great link is broken
We went forth
To find another world
But still I walk the earth
I am not alone...?

This world fades
Chaos is born
For I am that
Which fell from the heavens
I have come
Forever more
To eat of this world
For I am of the abyss

3. Under The Three Spheres

Across the heavens
An astounding sight I see
A rotating moon
Drawing closer to our world
The distant sun
Shifted in the skies
We must embrace
This cataclysm we've survived

A hole torn in space and time
Now we must survive
Underneath the three spheres
Under the three spheres

Something heard them cry
And now our world has changed
Underneath the three spheres
Under the three spheres

I'm fixed upon my path
To search a ruined world
For any who like me
Endured the scourging of mankind

4. Into Black Holes Of Oblivion

I cast my sight towards the past
And remember that which forced our flight
Our doom I saw and knew was near
But my warnings fell on deaf ears
My kin had left though I delayed
To greater planes I meant to follow
But as I made my flight of passage
The chasm opened in my path

Beneath me earth faded away – above
Titanic forces drew me to the abyss
Where time and space converged my memories blend
Yet now I recall what I saw:

From within this void something is looming
A monstrous presence engulfs me
As tentacles probe my mind
I'm scrutinised from the rift
Its power is too great
I feel my light fading
As I'm dragged into fell depths
I scream into the void

How I witnessed
As it drew me close
This my end
I would surely die
So I flared
And it threw me far
Through dark skies
Like a star I fell

I awaken – I have returned
I scream to the heavens – Why?

5. When The Light Fades Away

(инструментал)

6. Behind The Shadows

From spaces measureless to man it came
Fell from chasms out of time
Profound
Foretold
Walls raised between us were unmade
Thence humanity was shamed
Manifesting on the edges of our realm
An ingress yawning wide
A gateway to beyond
Walls raised between us were unmade
Hence reality was changed

Above the dark
Under the light
Behind the shadows
Lie madness

Above the dark
Under the light
Behind the shadows
Lie madness

As I trek across these ruined lands
In the distance are strange sounds
In dark skies there shine unearthly lights
Formless beings haunt the nights

Cast upon the winds – the souls of man
They sing to me – an awful song
They try to flee that which devours them
I feel it nearing – I must journey on

7. Awaken Man And Stone

As I'm pursued across this twilight world
High in a mountainside I discovered
A cavern like no other
Seeking refuge I discovered
A cavern like no other
Seeking refuge I descend
Closing sounds force me ever deeper
Resonating fear inside my mind
Then I slip and flounder in darkness
Falling I plummet deeper down

I slid into the mountain
I fell far and could not return
Resigned to this fate I crawl
Ahead I see a light

I found myself in ancient halls
Entombed beneath the rock
A civilisation lost
But how can this be?

Who are you from the outer world
Our realm is 'neath the stone
We fled here when the cities fell
To live under the kings

Statues of rock eerie kings of stone
As giants dwarf us all
But we must leave this place
For something terrible will occur

And yet a pedestal cracks
Your king awakes
Alas my coming has doomed you all
Now we must run

He pursues us all
And he will crush us under foot
Flee the rock my comrades
He no longer wishes your devotion
Out of the mountainside
We run in terror
Follow me, this way
In the distance I see a spire

8. The Twisted Tower

We fled the thing of stone
A monster I evoked
Then we ran in terror
Into the tower contorting towards the skies
From high within these walls I see
The golem strides past relentlessly
Far into the distant waves
Then deep beneath the sea

We've escaped for now
But yet I know we must
Traverse the great ocean
To reach the place of dreams

Above us the great hole twists
This tower towards the heavens
And we are also drawn
Ever upwards towards the skies
There are voices within these walls
And something haunts our minds
Bidding us to its peak
But we must resist:

We must leave this place
As it leads us to our doom
Do not heed the calling
Or you will be left behind

But a few escape
And to our horror
The hole grabs this obelisk
Taking it into the sky

9. To Where The Sun Never Leaves

On the horizon
An ever setting sun
Behind us lies eternal night
Yet there is a place
Where darkness cannot come
Bound by oceans
Over the edge of the world

Pursued by the encroaching night
We must strive to reach the light

Follow me
For we must go
To where the sun
Never leaves

Follow me
For we must go
To where the sun
Will never leave

Rise up I'll lead you to the light
For soon I'll pass beyond the reach of night

Follow me
For I'll lead you
To where the sun
Never leaves

I'll follow you
You'll never go
To where the sun
Never leaves

11. Thrown Upon The Waves

Gazing across this vast seascape
We'll journey to meet the unknown
To a place beyond imagination
There we will find sanctuary
I hear the call of the waves
Breaking upon the shore
They beckon – to me
To them I'll soon return

Now we must depart
Cast off these cursed lands
For far across the sea
A place the sun never leaves
Foretold me in a dream
Something will bar our way
Although my end is near
I must protect my companions

The darkness grows
Yet the stars are all I see
The sea turns black
Serenity washes over me

From the depths it comes
The voyager from beyond this realm
Who endlessly pursued me
Now our time has come

An old friend you have arrived
You've come for me in your true guise
I'll face you as I am and
Leave this shell behind

You'll never reach the rest
My shield of light against your shadow
Come now we'll embrace
As you pull me 'neath the waves

I reach for the surface
Yet I know my fate is sealed
I sacrifice myself to save
Those I leave behind

You'll fall back to the abyss
And I'll rise to planes beyond
Hear my final thoughts
You'll never know the wonders I've seen
