Forbidden line was left behind, I feel calm. The old belief was cast aside Like all past. Going ahead I feel the gates so close. Abode of the gods Just woke up, It's calling me. There is no way to come back into barren life. I have to give part of myself. A small sacrifice. Take my eyes. I am the one who walks on an immense black sky Through endless enfilades illuminated by stars, Free from the burden of regret. There are the halls of cruel insight, Here everything emits light, Space is filled with threads of fate, Their outlines are held in mind. I've been waiting for this great day. What will be at the end of my way? Poetic words take on form, Imagery come alive. In your thirst for secret knowledge You drink so much. Hanging between the worlds You ask the dead. Secrets of insanity, Knowledge of impending doom. It was in ancient times, It all will happen again. I was a slave of my illusions, My eyes made me blind. Now it's changed, I am waiting for the end Of this world as befits God.

Ominous dream. I'm dying and sunlight fades. The shadows come to ease my pain. The call of the grave, symphony of nasty whisper, The impotence of the mind before nature. So every day I am born again in his body and with his thoughts. There is the only way to break this chain. When I die, you'll have to destroy my remains. Damn this world, curse you all. I won’t be your entertainment. My brother, your shot’s next, Today we’ll both get freedom. Let me say one word, one time to breathe. Give me one last wish, a promise. Rise! Rise! God of life’s shine. New green land is waiting for you. Rise! Rise! The Ancient God. Rise! Rise! The only one who has known death. We cloned you with your kept mind. Rise! Rise! Take your throne. Damn this world, curse you all. My nightmares turned into fury. All feelings were linked with My soul that’s lost in a dream blur. Rise, God of life’s shine. Rise, the Ancient God! Rise, God of life’s shine. Rise, the Ancient God! The darkness filled my spirit, The chain is closed again. I see the signs of chaos. Warp of the plan. Burn my remains, There will be no grave. I'm going to my dream, I've no life.

One of the nine worlds is flying through the boundless void. The fire is its element. It burns inside and from the outside. Because of its enormous size it can absorb the planets. Who can resist a giant's scalding touch?When sparks of fireland thaw the ice, There will be something new which has no name. Will this alliance, evolution or vice? Howbeit it will change the rules of the game. The bleak outlying world, one of the great first-planets, Icy wastelands and mists, eternal nightfall. Nothing disturbs you but the wide-awake volcanoes. How much time will come before the glaciers move? When sparks of fireland thaw the ice, There will be something new which has no name. Will this alliance, evolution or vice? Howbeit it will change the rules of the game. The first birth in a flame. Thawed water’s flowing underground. Yet there is no god and no one to pray. The nature sets its own laws. Alone… In the middle of the hell… The scant world, it’s so hard here. The children of the frosted giant leave their home In fear of extinction. Wandering in the darkness… Wandering in the darkness… We hear the silence so loud, All feelings were changed. The stress of space becomes a bane, At some point their eyes flashed with understanding of the fatal laws From rise to fall in а fight. When fire and ice show the greatest might, Then old gods will go into the night. The deep space has kept silence so long, There is no one to say. But ageless orbs follow the same way, The nine worlds with their own names.

You're the most skilled of us. How did you prove to be in chains? One can’t hold the fire back. Temblors drew by mortal pain. What a loss, what a shame! You rise on your thrones, but your heads are down. Omniscience is nothing. One needs a dodgy mind to ignite the flame. Look at the sky, don't fear! Colossus has spread his fiery wings. Destruction is coming - It will clear the land from the evil. On a leash like a Wolf, in the cavern of the night. Here is all to suffer and at the same time not to die. Nutrients sluice through the tubes, poison drain out from my veins. Being in constant agony, I look forward to the end Someday I'll get freedom. Screams don’t bring relief in my kingdom. I want to see how this corrupt world will burn. The sea will leave the dead bodies. There is no one to sing odes. Sickening smell of decay hung in the air. Future and past merged. Dream or foresight. No confidence. Snake’s biting its own tail. End and rebirth еternally. You're the most skilled of us and yet you will not be saved. Lie! In what's your agony? Why did you bring closer our fate? Nutrients sluice through the tubes, poison drain out from my veins. Guest of this reality, in the other one I'm dead.

Listen to me all the living: I exist outside of the time. The abyss shines; there is no substance - the static world without name. I remember a dazzling flash, a movement as a result of the changes. The roots come from a single source. Look at them and read your fate. The young stars appear in the sky, the sound is born, the light fills the void. The giants rule this ordered world. The ancient gods contend for their thrones. You want to hear about the future. Even the God can't change the law. Your descendants will survive, but their end will be the same. I remember the fading light, the jaws of the cold are tearing the ground, The fight against the elements. I was there when you lost. From one event to the scores, the basic law denies the chance. Nobody can grasp the truth. Did I say enough to you? The young stars appear in the sky, the sound is born, the light fills the void. The giants rule this ordered world. The ancient gods contend for their thrones. From one sprout to the wood, the life always finds a way. Who was dead should open eyes. Did I say enough to you?

Day by day they are still changeless in their hearts. The another self-titled Gods lead us to collapse. Steal their eternal youth, Find out what secret is guarded by the immortals. From sin to the divinity. Victim. It was a thorny path. Conquerors of Space, they set the price of life. Self-claimed gods. Steal their knowledge, be determined. End of kin. Despair and endless torments. Steal their eternal youth, Find out what secret is guarded by the immortals. Glorification of soul - now body is a nuisance. If you reign over death, why isn’t he with us? Self-claimed gods. Steal their knowledge, be determined. End of kin. Despair and endless torments. Sunlight will show me the way, Steel wings will soar up in the sky. My eyes are like two stars of firstborn fire. This light brings hope. Nets of lie stand in the way, Ill will ruins our plans. There is no justice in the war, We hear the sorrowfuls’ singing pray. Sunlight will show me the right place, Steel wings will lift me up in the airless space. My way leads to the edge of the abyss. Falling. But the tree will cease to bear fruit One day.

Twilight reigns in the highest chamber. Оbservatory protected from light sources. From the beginning of time through all the worlds light shines And is refracted in mirrors of the great machine created by the old mind. He was sick and exhausted, the architect who knew too many wise. Аnswers to questions. You know a lot of knowledge does not bring relief. Tell me what do you see? The sage who has once hung on the Tree, Doom comes from the ancient time. Your gaze is in the past. Lethargic stars never lie to anyone who can read. One reflecting eye sees all. The chains that keeps the destructive. What is the limit of their strength? Welfare cannot dwell in eternity.It has a finite time length. The red giant upraised his sword. He is ready to burn the earth. Downfall of Kings. New seeds will sprout in the old land, Then our descendants will rule in space. All-seeing eye and knowledge of stars Will be out of reach before the time. Tell me how it all began And I will tell how this will end. Sons of the Fallen lords. I`ll give them the secret. Twilight reigns in the highest chamber, Оbservatory protected from the young mind.

They advised not to think about the end of my life, because it is selfish. Depleted souls. They sing about rebirth with the new hope to carry on the kin. Decline of norms, when the spirit is weak, when the mind is enslaved by the base desires. Burial ground. It is a due reward for the pain. Desperate prayers. It makes me laugh. I’ll embrace you, so brave, and then lay into the grave. Flesh and blood feed the ground - here the apple-tree grows. Fruits of work of billions. The dream constructed on the bones. Oh, the Greats, your fate was to make a sacrifice. They inquire for the main sense of my life. The evolution law. Why don’t I follow it? Narrow minds. How can I get to know what is freedom, being slaves? But I am the God. Praise me! I am the God now. Applaud! I am the God. Praise me! I am the God now. I embrace you, so brave, and then lay into the grave. Flesh and blood feed the ground - here the apple-tree grows. Fruits of work of billions. The dream constructed on the bones. Oh, the Greats, your fate was to make a sacrifice. Who tasted the fruit, would not think about the price of his choice: this is so slightly. Not benighted mind. I can improve myself and the world at my will. In eternal life - no bounds, no laws. All the earth, the sky are mine
