4. Montezuma
5. Merlin
6. The Goddess
7. Charon
8. Ocasta
9. Gilgamesh
10. Angel Witch (Angel Witch cover)







1. Thorr

Wielder of the Hammer
Mjollnir powerful
God of fire and lightning
Red-bearded Aesir

Defender from giant foes
The only one at Ragnarok

The first-born of Mother-Earth
(Thorr Almighty)
The Defender of his race
(God of Thunder - Thorr)
The first-born of Mother-Earth
(Thorr Almighty)
The Defender of his race
(God of Thunder - Thorr)

When he rides the chariot
Drawn by massy goats,
Heavens all resound of
Its rolling wheels.

Avenger, brave warrior
Odhinn's champion son

The end was so close,
When he faced the giant foe
It came to Valhalla
And challenged the Gods.
Hrungnir was its name and he had a heart of stone
He came with its giant mate Mekkurkalvi of clay

Yet the hero of Asgard with fearless wrath
With the hammer in hand ready to strike.
Tore them apiece with a mighty blow.
Still heavens rejoice of this victory




2. Thesus

"Bloodthirsty creature
Ritual carnage
Half beast half man..."

The cruel king
Of the court of ancient Crete,
King Minos
Had Dedalus build a maze.
He locked the beast
And set the high price for defeat.
Young boys
Seven, to feed its rage.

Into the maze...
The chosen ones would die
Terror awaiting,
The Minotuar's curse

"I'll stand for you,
Oh father beloved Lord,
Kill the bull
With my sword.
I am Theseus
I won't let all my people die!"

Shed tears
Of the beaten Greek king,
Aegeus
Wouldn't let him go at all.
Love tears,
Ariadne's, Minos's kin,
Magic twine
Led him back out of the maze

Into the maze...
The chosen ones would die
Terror awaiting,
The Minotuar's curse

"I'll stand for you,
Oh father beloved Lord,
Kill the bull
With my sword.
I am Theseus
I won't let all my people die!"




3. Fenrir

Darkness falls as the prophecy said,
"The time of the doom will arrive"

The wolf ate the sun, the giant the moon.
None of the stars has remained.

Out of the chasms...
The children of evil..
It's Ragnarok

The serpent - The wolf
All of the giants
The end of the world!

And when the Wolf comes,
One voice breaks the night
Asgard unite! - Asgard unite!
All of the gods 're coming
heeding the call
Asgard unite! - Asgard unite!

The call of the horn resounds in the air
The warning for the ending of all

Odin and Thor and Tyr join the battle
The clash of the monsters and gods.

Out of the chasms...
The children of evil..
It's Ragnarok

The serpent - The wolf
All of the giants
The end of the world!

And when the Wolf comes,
One voice breaks the night
Asgard unite! - Asgard unite!
All of the gods 're coming
heeding the call
Asgard unite! - Fenrir is here!

The prophecy was clear
The end of the gods had to come
The doom of the powers
Yet
The gods will still face their destiny...
Out of the chasms...
The children of evil..
It's Ragnarok

The serpent - The wolf
All of the giants
The end of the world!




4. Montezuma

Back in 1486
A great and grim king was at the lead
The last reign was to be
Of the glorious Aztec Empire

Montezuma was his name
Lord of Mexico

Gold, precious stones
Magnificent silver work
Feathers green adorned his figure
Almost like a God...

Mighty and majestic
Feared by everyone

When one day the god – like men
Came to conquer all his lands through fire and tears
Hostage he was held for fear
He could lead a raging revolt

Montezuma was his name
Lord of Mexico

Gold, precious stones
Magnificent silver work
Feathers green adorned his figure

He believed them gods
Mercyless rude warriors coming from far shores
He believed them friends
They would bring destruction, death,
And the end of all

He believed them gods
Mercyless rude warriors coming from far shores
He believed them friends
They would bring destruction, death
And the end of all

The curse of the king
And all his people
The deceived ones
Cursed their deceivers
Escape for no one




5. Merlin

In the land of king Arthur
Somewhere back in old history
A bard, a prophet, a wizard, there lived
demon’s kin, most famous of men

He moved the stones
From Ireland to England
The temple of heavens to build
The holy sword he
Preserved till the time
When Arthur could claim the throne

He thaught Arthur all the secrets
To became a great king
Magic, knowledge, wisdom, enchants
To rule over Camelot, noble and just

He fell in love
With Vivien of the lake
The Lady who learnt all his art
When he was weak
Enamoured of her charm
She entrapped him in Breceliande
Merlin – Seer, enchanter
Merlin – Master of Magic
Merlin – Master of Illusions
Merlin – Master of magic




6. The Goddess

Darkness falls again on the glen
The shadow of the slopes reaches the town
As I was wandering in the forest
A silhouette appeared and I couldn’t realize

I felt something strange
I couldn’t explain
Her glance was warm and tender
Her eyes so crystal blue

As she show herself
I was struck

She took my hand
She addressed to me:
“Don’t be afraid”
I sensed her strenght
I felt so safe, and were not afraid

And I trusted her
I let her lead my way
We passed rivers, creeks
And trails so harsh and wild
Till we reached a place I’d never seen before
We were plunged in light
It was as bright as diamond stone

I fell stunned on my feed
I couldn’t stand the light
Her sight, her feelings
Her power flow

When she showed herself
I was struck

[Chorus]

And it felt so good
A step from paradise
A sense of warmth and love
Of immensity
I was powerless
In a cloud of light
Blind and still
It was her love for me!

[Chorus]




7. Charon

The souls are approaching their destinies
Trembling in darkness and lost
By the Acheron river they gather confused
And slowly the ferry arrives
A man silhouette through the sulfurean mists
On the boat that carries the dead
Its voice comes profoundly
Resounding in the air
In awe the shadows retreat

A figure in black
Fiery and grim
Tall, skinny old man
Charon (lunga e sfuma sulla prossima parola)

Woe to you
Wicked spirits! Hope not
Ever to see the sky again
I come to take you
To the other shore across
Into eternal darkness, there to dwell
In fierce heat and in ice

Sighs... lamentations...
Loud Moans... Dispair...

The old man is here to collect them all
Those spirits, faint and naked, gashing their teeth
Demoniac figure with coal burning eyes
Beckons and strikes with his oar
All those who linger on the dark wretched strand
Voice outcrying deep and hoars

[Chorus]




8. Ocasta

Couldn’t decide
Always living on the edge
Creator’s helper?
Spent all his life
Ravaging all of the villages

Stonecoat, helped the maker one day
Stonecoat, caused destruction on Earth

Good or evil, never chosen the way, Ocasta
Good and evil, chaos bringing turmoils, Ocasta

One day he was captured
Tricked, entrapped, and burned alive
As death loomed
He blessed his captors
Giver of knowledge, wisdom and power

Stonecoat, helped the maker one day
Stonecoat, caused destruction on Earth

[Chorus]




9. Gilgamesh

Once the oppressor
Of Uruk harsh king
Then strongest man that ever was
Friends to Enkidu, the savage wise man
They stood together
Perform many deeds

The Demon, they killed
The bull sent by Ishtar’s wrath

He saw the great Mystery
He knew the Hidden
He recovered the knowledge of all times
Before the Hood

He met Utnapishtim
The Living One
Fried to uncover the secret of life
Yet at once
He found Himself
Old and weak
Mortal man

Gained nothing, but pain
He knees and weeps

He saw the great Mystery
He knew the Hidden
He recovered the knowledge of all times
Before the Hood

He journeyed beyond the distant
Journeyed beyond exhaustion
Gilgamesh, half human half God
Carved his story on stone

Woe to me! What can I do now?
Death is all around me
Death has devoured my body my flesh
I lost my immortality
O Goddess! My Mother!
Outstretch your hand!
Save me from these pains!
We to me! What can I do now?
Wherever I look there stands death

Gilgamesh! – He’s the one
He’s the one who saw things secret
Gilgamesh! – He’s the one
He’s the one who heard The Story
Lord of wisdom, he saw the abyss
And brought back words of the Hood

[Chorus]




10. Angel Witch (Angel Witch cover)
