1. Her Silent Cry At Dawn

A tear fell on his grave
His soul ended its race
Silent, lonely, boarded over
Covered by the hatred of this world
Sails deep into their Kingdom
Sent to the unknown god
Abyss is wide open
He follows an unfamiliar path

Four roads are widely known
At the end of fifth he will stand alone
He is rising higher and higher
No retreat: he can't go down
Pushed by the people's hands
Towards that beautiful, blue gate
He's been deprived of choice and fate
He's been isolated from people and himself

Threat turned into safety
They satisfied their god
He had everything - therefore he sails
He sails away from them, sails away from her
He used to be a key to the closed gates
Against millions of years - he was alone
The World deprived him of everything
He used to be a threat - now he's not




2. The First Step Into The Unknown

Seeing nothing, feeling nothing
You go in the dark, you feel your way
Eyes open, heart closed
Sorrow on the face, a tear on the cheek

You saw her that night
You did but you closed your eyes
The flame of your heart has dried the tear
The picture has revived in his memory

You walked through like a shadow of the night
The tear flew on the face
The heart started to beat harder
She followed you

Secrets of darkness you got to know
Seeing her against a background of the Moon
You confessed to your soul
That you want nothing else from life than that

Once you knew the meaning
Of wandering leading to the end
One glance gave you freedom
The moon was a witness of renewal
A dulled cry of joy
Quiet song to the Moon
He had the soul of the wood
She was the sense of his life

You stood and gazed
She was in front of you
The glitter of her eyes told you
That she already knew about that




3. Departure

Ever unexplored road
On which the madness walks
Opened in front of you
Waiting for your first step
Without hesitation you stepped
On the path of life and death
You were infatuated
With the glitter of her bright self

With the first step came the winds
Which dispelled all fears
The second step brought the anger of all rains
Washing away doubts from your face
With the third days and nights became brighter
Brightening and abiding your soul
Fourth step restored four seasons
Fire warmed and opened the heart

But she hid herself then
Away from him and night
She left the projection of herself
He woke up and saw
An empty night and a lonely shadow
The heart squeezed again
He was seized by thoughts




4. The Repose

Shouts and cries filled that night
Meaningless words flooded the Stars
The time and the unguarded moments have come
The time for a moment of brightness has come
Slowly he started to understand everything
He turned illusion into reality
Learning the truth he was getting weaker
Finally understanding everything
He ran away trying to forget
He didn't admit brightness
He wanted her and those moments back
He didn't want to wake up and he dreamed

He saw nothing, heard empty words
He built reality once again
Based on a pure dishonesty
With no anger whatsoever

I watch him getting lost within himself
Consciously lying to himself
When his eyes filled with happiness
His soul filled with falsehood, deceit, departure

Then the fog returned to him
Slowly approached him
Covered him like night covers day
Again night is day, white is covered by black
As he was approaching he was getting happier
Illusions gave him security
He plunged surrounded by darkness
And she was waiting for his step




5. Hologram

He was aproaching the edge of a precipice
Led there without knowing it
Unconsciously he was recognising his end
She became his beginning
She gave him life and its meaning
Sha also gave him his death
In his eyes she was the World
But she was only a hologram

He was the sight falling on her soul
The eye looking this way
Her way which he thought
Was true but he wasn't right
Nothing was true in her
He looked at her only through his eyes
In his eyes she was the World
But she was only a hologram

He stood the facing his death
Whom he entrusted his soul
He didn't hear the forest thunders over his head
He didn't feel the cold wind on his face
Then he started to die slowly
Unconsiously
He was to stand at the threshold of the blue gates
Being forced to do so by the hologram




6. The Last Glance Into Her Eyes

The fire of the four seasons
The glitter of all nights and days
The strenght of the blowing winds
The drops of the washing rains

You were with him that day
You were with him that night
Death was approaching to you
You knew what for

The last stars died out
The Moon silently cried
The darkness of the night swallowed up
All your little universe
You stood next to him
I saw you then
You glanced to the end
Into his dying eyes
Without any feeling
You stood over hin like death
Even a small tear drop
Didn't moisten your eyelashes
I saw an indifferent
Look on your pretty face
I looked into your eyes
But you didn't give yourself away

The fire faded then died out
The glimpse forever perished
The winds forever faded away
The rains completely dried




7. Truth

Burn through centuries, burn by emptiness
Surrounded by obscured
Characters from your past
This night he joins them

Stand forever in the ashes of his life

Look at his eyes
He won't see you
Now you can take off your mask
Show your real face
He doesen't see you anyway
He will never hear you
He will never feel you
He will never give you anything
Despite you don't want it
You are his coffin
Maybe you didn't want it
You became his death
You deny it as if I was lying
It was not you that he knew
Empty words with no meaning
Empty eyes without life

Stand forever in the ashes of his life




8. Epilogue

You leave when the day comes
The morning dew bids you goodbye
The forest silently soughs when you sails
Even if she perishes you won't see
Her beautiful, deceitful face
It will never happen again
My cry comes from your coffin
Loud painful and dirty
Stained by the stream of her tears
Falling on me like rain
You will never see it again
You will never see her again

That day the universe died
Through the infinity of those years
Conducted by death
Today you worship her
She thrust the Saviour down
She buried dreams
She killed him then
She destroyed everyone today

The sun was reaching the zenith
When he couldn't return
The forest wind grew silent, rain ceased
Tears frozen on her lips
Dead silent lapsed
Announcing what comes
Hearing on the top
Her silent cry at dawn
