MISERIUM LYRICS

1. Origin

A cruel vision beats from scratch
The divine will makes the land eldritch
The Moirai see and kindly agree
With this aim, this dreadful destiny

Sisters of Fate, there's no time to wait
Gather the threads, feel their weight
Sacrifice of blood, with honour and pride
Amidst the senseless slaughter

The smell of death, the taste of threat
Blackening the sense of the last breath
Stellar flames, bloody rains
Promote pain to increase itself

Godless weight of wrath
Unequal dance with death,
The fear in your hearts
Will guide you 'til the end

Slake the wish inside
This war will be so sublime
Tame the fearless hearts
And guide them through their pride

Tangled skein cut to length
For the tapestry of mortal lives

Waving torments
Glorious doom
Infected wounds
Bring lifeless gloom

Whispering voices
Bitter disease
Cast in shadow
Resentful sleaze

When someone else tells the tale of your lifeline
All you need is the will to be just and true
May your fate be carved in stone deep inside
No one can find your way, only you

A sharpened blade and the gathered threads,
Waiting in Clotho's hands
Lachesis, Atropos
Set the line when our time ends

When someone else tells the tale of your lifeline
All you need is the will to be just and true
May your fate be carved in stone deep inside
No one can find your way, only you

Devastating forces fighting
Infected wounds bring lifeless gloom
Try to reach the essence of silence
To understand this glorious doom

Try to reach the essence of solitude
To understand this doom

When someone else tells the tale of your lifeline
All you need is the will to be just and true
May your fate be carved in stone deep inside
No one can find your way, only you
When someone else tells the tale of your lifeline
All you need is the will to be just and true
May your fate be carved in stone deep inside
No one can find your way, only you

Waving torments
Glorious doom
Infected wounds
Bring lifeless gloom

Whispering voices
Bitter disease
Cast in shadow
Resentful sleaze

2. Fear

Young warriors'
Blood on the walls
Silent screams
Run through the alleys

A strange battle song
Echoes all day long
The fear in our hearts
Becomes unbearable

Just watching us mortal sons we're washing away your fort
With the power of the great ancient flood
The light of flames what we made with the temple of your unknown god
Can show you how we'll destroy with rage

Wires in the walls clockworks in heads
The dawn of a new age is behind the glass
Just waiting to plug this sick connection
We'll all become dead or slaves so it's time to fight or

Runaway to the hills
Unleash our fears
Runaway and leave the palace
Cowardice or courage is our name?

Young faced boys
Become warriors
Breathless moments before
Those endless errors

A strange battle song
Suggest the number of the throng
The fear in our hearts
Makes us truly strong

Just watching us mortal sons we're washing away your fort
With the power of the great ancient flood
The light of flames what we made with the temple of your unknown god
Can show you how we'll destroy with rage

Wires in the walls clockworks in heads
The dawn of a new age is behind the glass
Just waiting to plug this sick connection
We'll all become dead or slaves so it's time to fight or

Runaway to the hills
Unleash our fears
Runaway and leave the palace
Cowardice or courage is our name?

Wires in the walls clockworks in heads
The dawn of a new age is behind the glass
Just waiting to plug this sick connection
We'll all become dead or slaves so it's time to fight or

Runaway to the hills
Unleash our fears
Runaway and leave the palace
Cowardice or courage is our name?

3. A Day To Remember

While I'm looking at the sea
A harsh battle cry runs through me
In the fields of valor and victory
We'll give our lives to history

Settled into battle lines
Just waiting for the leaders' signs
Today is the day to die
Brothers! One day, we will unite

Hold your horses great warriors you all forget something
Without a prayer the mighty gods will do us nothing
Just kneel down to the ground and say the words after me
Oh, thee Zeus try to save us and bring us glory

Just lead us into the inexperienced
And take us to the golden palace
Just hold us in your palm which is sealed
And save us with your mighty shield

A soft wind blows through between the legs
We stand as statues and wait what's next
From mountain top to valley deep
Death's whispering and it gently weeps

Restlessness on every face
We won't vanish without a trace
We won't let our names be erased
'Til it's time to return to grace

Look at us, we're kneeling down before you mighty gods
Do not let our brothers die today like studded dogs
Let us heal our wounds with your divine remedies
Oh, thee Zeus let us fuck the shit out of our enemies

Just lead us into the inexperienced
And take us to the golden palace
Just hold us in your palm which is sealed
And save us with your mighty shield

Just lead us into the inexperienced
And take us to the golden palace
Just hold us in your palm which is sealed
And save us with your mighty shield
Just lead us into the inexperienced
And take us to the golden palace
Just hold us in your palm which is sealed
And save us with your mighty shield

Bring us glory

4. Beyond The Walls

We fought to the grave
Blade clashed on blade
For each mistake
One's falling

Faced Impossible odds
Defied the gods
Who planned our downfall
At Troy's gates

Still, death comes for everyone
Darkness consumes every light
Immortality's waiting for us
Before the sun goes down

We lost everything
And lost everyone
All that ever mattered
Is long gone

This bloodshed can't end
Our wounds will not mend
'Til they are avenged
With anger

Still, death comes for everyone
Darkness consumes every light
Immortality's waiting for us
Before the sun goes down

This
Cannot be the ultimate
War
That shatters the mind and the
Will
My only wish is
To finally finish
This
At the unyielding walls of
Troy
That try to halt
Us
Bleed us, break us
Drive us away

What keeps us sane through this strife?
Immortality
How could reason prevail?
In this fight

This
Seems to be the ultimate
War
That shatters the mind and the
Will
My only hope is
To finally cope with
This
Blasphemous misfortune at
Troy
That seems to haunt
Us
Bleed us, break us
Drive us away

What keeps us sane through this strife?
Immortality
How could reason prevail?
Glorious dominance
What makes us more than we are?
Our actions' echoes
Death lies where we all shall fail

Pay the wage of Charon
Show the golden coins
Do not be afraid
Take a seat 'cause
This will be your last journey

5. The Rising

Glittering lights roar before my eyes
A sharp noise taking me by surprise
Heavy scars glow and pulse in my body
Now my time comes to let myself revive

Crimson blood and broken heart
Our formation shan't fall apart
Just raise your arms up to the sky
Transform this war to the finest art

Rough blades, shields and armors collide
Brave heroes lie on the ground, petrified
In foreign soil Elysium denied
Of these two worlds I choose the light of life

Crimson blood and broken heart
Our formation shan't fall apart
Just raise your arms up to the sky
Transform this war to the finest art

Remember our true, brave brothers
Who fell in the great battle at Troy
Never forget their faces
Too many coins spent,
Too much treasure wandered to Charon

Brothers I call you to take a vast revenge
A deeper cut to wreak havoc upon them
Swim through the river of fear and blood
Then marching through their rotten corpses flood

Crimson blood and broken heart
Our formation shan't fall apart
Just raise your arms up to the sky
Transform this war to the finest art

Remember our true, brave brothers
Who fell in the great battle at Troy
Never forget their faces
Too many coins spent,
Too much treasure wandered to Charon

Rising souls fly high
Dressed in milky white
Flames aim toward the sky
Their lights coverin' the night

Remember our true, brave brothers
Who fell in the great battle at Troy
Never forget their faces
Too many coins spent,
Too much treasure wandered to Charon

With a half-dead smile on our face
Try to say farewell from the other side

6. Incomprehensible Act

The king's decision has made it clear to me – /Aiax/
No matter what feats I've accomplished
I might never get the proper respect
A post resembling what Ulysses established

The culprit must be confronted
And be held accountable,
But it's you, Aiax, oh poor Aiax – /Athena/

This golden cage is full of vain hope – /Aiax/
The time comes to rip him out of his diamond throne
His allies were once my friends
But by my hand they'll leave these barren lands

Side by side we fought for the king of errors
But I've never seen him on the battlefield, never!

Poor animals have no idea – /narr/
What's waiting for them during the night
A secret spell from Athena's hand
Fully rewrote the storyline

The smell of carnage and madness
Possessed you, son of Telamon
With slow steps you are
Spiraling into the great unknown

Step forward, sons of bastards – /Aiax/
Let me see your faces
Don't hide yourselves
You damned cowards!

Show yourselves! Show yourselves! – /Aiax/

Son of Telamon! There's no need for this. – /Athena/
The bloodshed that you're goin' to do
Will be the end of your journey, my great hero.

Show yourselves! Show yourselves! – /Aiax/

I see there's no other way. I enchanted you during the day. – /Athena/
Your old friends aren't your foes.
But one by one they will fall after the judgement day.

Split them, crush them – /Aiax/
Cut out their hearts
Slowly rotate
My singing knife

Destroy, erase
Avoid, repeat
Carve them slowly
So sweet to watch them falling
DOWN!

Your incomprehensible actions – /narr/
Will lead to the worst, you'll be ashamed
Gods' providence decomposes
Vanishing without a trace

The smell of carnage and madness
Possessed you, son of Telamon
With slow steps you are
Spiraling into the great unknown

Watch them, Aiax, you mighty hero! – /people/
Obloquy, shame on you, what did you do?!
Poor animals' flesh everywhere on the ground
The blood, the sweat, the anger and the craziness overwhelmed you

Obscure details, shining blood – /Aiax/
Rotten bodies of animals from the hutch
Obscure details, shining blood
Shame on me, Aiax

7. Cast To Waves

Sisters of fate turn thy eyes toward the ashamed hero's yarn
After the great war he became an outcast, torn
His actions turn the Dalia into saffron dust
He's wandering dishonored but desiring bloodlust

My tormented soul risen and fallen
The blood drenching the satisfaction
This perplexity makes me uncertain
I wish I could disappear – escape from their scornful eyes

Sisters of fate, there's no time to wait
Gather the threads, feel their weight
Sacrifice of blood, with honour and pride
Amidst the senseless slaughter

Sisters of fate turn thy eyes toward the ashamed hero's yarn
After the great war he became an outcast torn
With confused mind, he'd have taken arms against friend or foe
Benign gods restrained from the final blow

My tormented soul risen and fallen
The blood drenching the satisfaction
This perplexity makes me uncertain
I wish I could disappear

Silent sea weeps with golden sorrow
My noble actions cast to waves
Flowing towards bleak tomorrow
Sinking into ocean graves – and buried in oblivion

Oldest of fates, strain shears abhorred on wrecked yarn
Of one whose life is but ruins forlorn

8. A Silent Prayer

Hear the words of my silent prayer, Gods
Help me leave these barren lands and lead me into the light
But don't hide my mortal name when a new age comes
Let me be remembered as a hero, the damned one

Tear my soul out of my body, oh Gods...
And convey it to the celestial ones
Let the hero to die in honour
Hear a genuine repentance – of a slaughter

Finally we can feel
The dying moan of the agonist
Tear the yarn, forsake your will
Time to leave

Your false freedom will be your curse
Don't let yourself be averse
Divine descension will be your gift
To oblivion

Hear the words of my silent prayer, Gods
Help me leave these barren lands and lead me into the light
But don't hide my mortal name when a new age comes
Let me be remembered as a hero, the damned one

Wash away the tears from my eyes...
Its every drop impregnates the soil – with fear and disgust

Finally we can feel
The dying moan of the agonist
Tear the yarn, forsake your will
Time to leave

Your false freedom will be your curse
Don't let yourself be averse
Divine descension will be your gift
To oblivion

Hear the words of my silent prayer, Gods
Help me leave these barren lands and lead me into the light
But don't hide my mortal name when a new age comes
Let me be remembered as a hero

Hear the words of my silent prayer, Gods
Help me leave these barren lands and lead me into the light
But don't hide my mortal name when a new age comes
Let me be remembered as a hero, the damned one

9. Ascension

Aias, the son of Telamon, you took your life by your own hands
Dagger created a great hole in your heart
Whose fault is your death matters no longer
Nobody held your hand, you're lying here unburied
With wounds in your heart, in your mind
Alone, lost in the dark in the end…
