Fracture! The ground open in half letting out a green and purulent liquid Men then turn to the golden calf, sulfur in the air made its first victim It's the purification of all living things, black sun rises above the horizon Smell the air filled with vitriol, this is the beginning of the endless night The gigantic green lion devouring the sun alive A purulent green liquid purifying the golden calf Look at the sun and tell me, did you see the gigantic green lion eating the sun alive Devouring the putrid flesh left by the men, cleaning the world tonight Making corruption disappear and earth shine again Can you see under layers covered with dirt a ray of light piercing through the filth of men Can you hear a thousands soul agonizing? A green liquid covering the world of men Sulfur! The lion bites the sun consuming matter of all the living things Darkness then covered all the world, the ages of black sun have now begun It's the purification of all living things, black sun rises above the horizon Smell the air filled with vitriol, this is the beginning of the endless night Look at the sun and tell me, did you see the gigantic green lion eating the sun alive Devouring the putrid flesh left by the men, cleaning the world tonight Making corruption disappear and earth shine again! Can you see under layers covered with dirt a ray of light piercing through the filth of men Can you hear a thousands soul agonizing? A green liquid covering the world of men The gigantic green lion devouring the sun alive A purulent green liquid purifying the golden calf

Here standing on your feet, ignoring consciously all the signs Only taking care of your heartbeat, you will not stay indefinitely fine I see the blood in your eyes Crying for your life, when acid rain's falling burning your skin Can you hear your bones breaking under your strife This is the end of your greed And the tears come to my eyes, I cannot cry the way you die And the fears come to my side, I cannot lie and say goodbye At the top of the world you cry Last moment of our being is nigh Here standing on your feet, ignoring consciously all the signs Only taking care of your heartbeat, you will not stay indefinitely fine Justify your idleness is way too late, fire rise in the sky as the clouds are burning Amplify the way you die will be your fate, winds carry your cry as the seas are flowing In this world full of pain, making the same mistakes again And the tears come to my eyes, I cannot cry the way you die And the fears come to my side, I cannot lie and say goodbye

Right in the fire the embers of life rise up in the sky for their afterlife Destruction is the cradle of men, I don't wanna live this extinction again Come on! What do you see Is it really the life you want Come on! What do you wanna be Don't feel so confident And now we fought for so many years, we waited so long to rise and avoid The storm of embers burning your life forever Listen to the wind, don't you feel it coming Why are you so blind? Don't you see it rising All hope is gone now, the world is collapsing Why do you disallow to listen to the wind Listen to the wind, don't you feel it coming Why are you so blind? Don't you see it rising All hope is gone now, the world is collapsing Why do you disallow to listen to the wind Right in the fire the embers of life rise up in the sky for their afterlife Destruction is the cradle of men, I don't wanna live this extinction again Come on! What do you see Is it really the life you want Come on! What do you wanna be Don't feel so confident Why do you look away while the world is burning Closing your eyes to the things you did for so many years And now we fought for so many years, we waited so long to rise and avoid The storm of embers burning your life forever

Sky's covered with a thick black veil, no one'll survive this endless night Standing by the moonless sky, I see the fear in your eyes Under the rain of eternal soot, I feel the anger in my root You hiding in your stronghold watching the world turn into ashes You sitting on your old gold only worried about taxes Listen up the voice of hell, can you hear the end of time Be aware of your own death! All your flesh will be rotting Under a rain of soot Standing by the moonless sky, I see the fear in your eyes Under the rain of eternal soot, I feel the anger in my root You let Earth turn into coal You let them poison the soil And the leaves turn into dust And the grass turns into rust You can't fight back covered with black dust You can't stand right with all your lust You trying to be richest, cannot realize it's all your fault You burning your own forest, cannot even try to make this halt Listen up the voice of hell, can you hear the end of time Watch the world burn in death, can you see the dying sun Be aware of your own death! All your flesh will be rotting

Look into my eyes only filled with tears, listen to the psalms of the fifth churches Kneeling to the chants of the Judgement day, seven new prophets descend from the stars Invoking circles of the ancient years, prepare to be crushed by the Aquarian age And we watch confused the rising waters, standing down in fire of a dying sun I can now see remorse of the past, down in the river of eternal tears And you must wake up and see what pain you did for all these years And there is nothing more than can last in this world of perpetual fears Did you at least think 'bout your kids? You will leave them only your fears And now we're doomed for thirteen centuries We will leave our children our pathetic memories We cannot realize how precious our Earth is The only thing we have left them is our sad eternal tears Look into my eyes only filled with tears, listen to the psalms of the fifth churches Kneeling to the chants of the Judgement day, seven new prophets descend from the stars Invoking circles of the ancient years, prepare to be crushed by the Aquarian age And we watch confused the rising waters, standing down in fire of a dying sun And now we're doomed for thirteen centuries We will leave our children our pathetic memories We cannot realize how precious our Earth is The only thing we have left them is our sad eternal tears

Deep down underground men found their refuge, hiding for century escaping realities Behind metal doors, they locked themselves away and finally forgot the beauty of the world In the vault, I see the fire ablazing the heart of my father In the shadow of my prison, I'm foregone All my family gone crazy, they are losing their mind slowly Without any sunlight down there, true nightmare I want to see the clouds above my head The grass under my feet, fresh air in my lungs I want to sleep under thousands stars Gaze lost in the celestial vault Leave the stash, I want to see the sky I feel like I'm buried alive Shut in deep in a coffin of steel Go and rise, I do not want to die Confined in my own world made of tears and sorrow Lost in a crying lake filled with all my mistakes Deep down underground men found their refuge, hiding for century escaping realities Behind metal doors, they locked themselves away and finally forgot the beauty of the world In the vault, I see the fire ablazing the heart of my father In the shadows of my prison, I'm foregone All my family gone crazy, they are losing their mind slowly Without any sunlight down there, true nightmare I want to see the clouds above my head The gr ass under my feet, fresh air in my lungs I want to sleep under thousands stars Gaze lost in the celestial vault Leave the stash, I want to see the sky I feel like I'm buried alive Shut in deep in a coffin of steel Go and rise, I do not want to die Confined in my own world made of tears and sorrow Lost in a crying lake filled with all my mistakes

Lost Soul 03:51
Hiding in the dark I saw you starting the fire of souls Sleeping in the night under the stars I lost controls Feeling in my heart the life leaving my body now In a desperate move, I try to grab the lost rope And the fire is burning down my mind I feel the edges of my perception blind I feel the wings of desire driving my lost soul What is the matter to be an angel knight? To feel the despair of the men and only here to watch What is the matter to be a desperate man? To see the end of the world and only here to cry Into the void Standing on the top of the highest cliff I saw this man Staring into space the absence of meaning of all his life Why can't I act to help this man? Why am unchained? I feel the wings of desire driving my lost soul And the fire is burning down my mind I feel the edges of my perception blind

Watch the world, see the flames, hear the storms, fear the end Collapse will be violent, thousands of death Humankind will live a rapid fall Nature will be unleashed and drag with it All the waste of humanity Face the ocean of proofs, stop living your old habits Now listen to the young who want to live in a world without an end And we keep watching in apathy the fall of humanity Why can't we wake up and act? Is it too late to react Watch the world, see the flames, hear the storms, fear the end Collapse will be violent, thousands of death Humankind will live a rapid fall Nature will be unleashed and drag with it All the waste of humanity We really need to rise above the gloomy sky We need to realize before being paralyzed Face the ocean of proofs, stop living your old habits Now listen to the young who want to live in a world without an end And we keep watching in apathy the fall of humanity Why can't we wake up and act? Is it too late to react
