The Deer 04:39
THE DEER In a dream I’ve seen it to come To the shore of my solitude Endlessly walking in fog It’s the deer, changes the reality In the forest of my will Everything becomes glaucous On the ivy it deals the evilness It’s the deer, changes the reality. I’m not! Everything! There is! Eyes in the sky! I look around x2 Everything is confusing and without mistake While the beast is coming to me And destroys my weakened mind In a dream I’ve seen it to come To the shore of my solitude Endlessly walking in fog It’s the deer, changes the reality In the forest of my will Everything becomes glaucous On the ivy it deals the evilness It’s the deer, changes the reality. I’m not! Everything! There is! Eyes in the sky!

TO GO BERSERK Crossing the waterfall of my tears A red blast comes into my soul Beneath of my skin, the birth of the beast My body is twisted alone I walk away of my warren My will is overflow of wrath And all my intentions are clear Destroy who blacken my soul I’ll never die for your hands I will escape from become your slave I’ll never die for your hands You can’t stop all my rage and escape Crossing the waterfall of my tears A red blast comes into my soul Beneath of my skin, the birth of the beast My body is twisted alone I will burn up the undergrowth Finding the breach of the wall Breaking down it with my brave I will be free from your bolt I’ll never die for your hands I will escape from become your slave I’ll never die for your hands You can’t stop all my rage and escape

Hermit 04:36
HERMIT Sit on the top Searching for a place In the sky Look at the stars Light! Staying alone Waiting for a change Break the time (Break the time!) Eyes in the dark Shine! Sitting on the top of my tree I find the balance searching in my mind When I get down, to the ground The land is burning, I realize There’s no plan, no destination The way is not defined now Try to climb, to the highest branch cross the line Reveals the path Blind! Losing the hope, Losing the control Of my mind (Of my mind!) Strong mental thread Climb! Sitting on the top of my tree I find the balance searching in my mind When I get down, to the ground The land is burning, I realize That there’s no plan, no destination The way is not defined now Losing my mind!

Mindslave 04:48
MINDSLAVE Blue lights in my mind And tears in your eyes, falling Red blood in our veins Of anger Shadows in the wall I cannot forget That loneliness is my friend My nightmare All of you are welcome To live my obsession Trapped! In my brain! I can’t stop the headache Feeling all the pain Without you in the night Slave without escape Slave of my mind Memories kill me slowly And my ghosts chase me hurry I need A fucking bit of Peace! All of you are welcome To live my obsession Trapped! In my brain! I can’t stop the headache Trapped! The rules are broken! Cause I’m insane! And my world makes me crazy!

Swamp 03:28
SWAMP Burn your feet to not escape Destroy the road to nowhere And get lost in dead leaves The sky is watching us The silent drop of life Ice trees can see me The ground is wet Where the mud is the king Ice burns! My hands! The path! Revealed! Old land! My face! My eyes! The space!

Desert Tool 04:43
DESERT TOOL Small stream, crossing the dunes In the middle of nowhere it flows In the desert it founds the new born Forming a river Growing, growing Becomes bigger and flow in the sea Becomes bigger and quench my thirst Came to me Fly like the wind Lets your spirit go on Fly like the wind Find the water in the drought Follow the course Fountain of life Changing now the direction To my throat to calm the disease Came to me Growing, growing Becomes bigger and flow in the sea Becomes bigger and quench my thirst Came to me Fly like the wind Lets your spirit go on Fly like the wind Find the water in the drought Water in drought!

Sleepwalker 05:54
SLEEPWALKER Lights of the candles shine Another day in my life Shadows of the sun Show me the way to the stars The moon in the sky is shining And the roses fade up Crystalline essence Left the river and fly away Mountain breeze The wolf is howling again I’m alone But I will save myself to fall from grace I only close my eyes And find my soul When the moon has a new born Midnight goes away My dream is coming to end Lights of a new dawn Blind me and burn my eyes The owl has die Its time to wake up again Morning is here Welcome to see the unreal life Mountain breeze The wolf is howling again I’m alone But I will save myself to fall from grace

I AM EVERYTHING The different ways to see the Reality, the truth Pray for me I will think for you False promise, go to heaven Tell me what I must do To save my soul lost in the flood The perfect God’s creation Religious robot without mind The faith to justify the war False free feeling, forever blind Is the end! God has sent! Angels cry! Sell your life! The violence of middles To justify the ends The reasons based on fear and hate Eternal fire sentence That men can’t understand Pray all you know, weep all you want The perfect God’s creation Religious robot without mind The faith to justify the war False free feeling, forever blind Is the end! God has sent! Angels cry! Sell your life! The different ways to see the Reality, the truth Pray for me I will think for you False promise, go to heaven Tell me what I must do To save my soul lost in the flood
