Curse of the Red River

Curse Of The Red River (music: Laine & Yli-Sirniö, lyrics: Laine) On pathless ways you wither and hope has flown away Rise before my sight In the great eternity darkest obscurities no sun will ever shine again As the days of gold have passed never to return Just like a dream too bright to last is the curse of the red river See the raging torrent wash your soul to the valley below to the graves of the sea of oppression And see the bleak reflections of the days that are no more from the dreadful shadows As the days of gold have passed never to return Just like a dream too bright to last are the beds of blood by the rivers of red

Remain in silence or death arrives At strange doors we are now Quiet in tranquillity or everything breaks The bow is strung up No stepping forward no stepping back Better to remain transfixed Balanced in calmness Lest one twig shall crack A brimful chalice Just one drop more And everything cascades Benighted stillness Elusive daylight Escape in masquerade A brimful chalice Just one drop more And everything cascades Benighted stillness Elusive daylight It's our twilight Devoid of strength It is lingering No voices no words One move to deceive the haven [Solo] God-forsaken without lucky stars Soon to breathe but not yet In silence to endure this Or our twilight A brimful chalice Just one drop more And everything cascades Benighted stillness Elusive daylight Escape in masquerade A brimful chalice Just one drop more And everything cascades Benighted stillness Elusive daylight It's our twilight

Forlorn Waves (music & lyrics: Mårtenson) Without a sound saw the eagle rising The bringer of storms under dark clouds flying The forlorn waves rowing ashore the island with no name Many a ship here lost its way A few return from the cross swell may Brave men of old their screams now silent Forever gone as the sea embraced them The forlorn waves rowing ashore the island with no name A man unknown sailor of the seas Cast overboard here he found his peace

Flicker (music & lyrics: Perttilä) I could hold that hand no more I turned away and tried to swim back to the shore To let go of joy and fear Forsaking all that will melt down to tears Forever shifting place and time Caught in delusion This dream is only mine Released from all sorrow you bring tonight Reflecting a sunrise as I close my eyes In the distance for evermore swimming miles and miles to never reach the shore Last flicker of reality All I can portray is only real to me Released from all sorrow you bring tonight Reflecting a sunrise as I close my eyes Drifting with true wonders to never touch the ground Merge sorrow with beauty as I close my eyes Another thruth a different sun No infinity could be the only one So I embrace the other side and it hits me with sunlight and shatters the space purpose and time rejoice this night is shifting worlds A thousand suns No one can share this end of time

(music: Laine, lyrics: Laine & Koskinen) Stream Of Time Has Been Broken Blessed Is The Infernal Soul Dark Desire Has Awoken And I See The Angels Fall In The Moments Of Silence As The Wind Has Abated The Clouds Of Black Come In Sight Down Pour The Tears Of God Sailing Down On The Tears Of God On The Way To Oblivion And We Sleep Without Dreaming In The Eternal Wake Of The Leer From Beyond The End Is Creeping Fleeing Bliss Redressed By Agony From Above The Eye Is Leering For What Has Been And What Will Ever Be

The Ritual Of Dawn (music: Mårtenson, lyrics: Jussi K. Niemelä) Wash her Kiss her Feel my
 Thunder
 She's gone
 Like my wrath
 She’s gone
 You scream
 Watch me
 Kneeling
 Touch her
 She's here Heat fire
 She’s here
 Summoning me Blessing our grief
 My love
 Lie down Praying
 Worship
 Dying My life Bleeding
 My life
 Sleeping
 Weeping Hear my
 Silence
 She's gone Fire
 She’s gone Hold the candles and slay the sky
 Take her home Sanctify
 Curse the darkness to make it right
 Watch the dawn, closing her eyes See it shine
 See me rise Like the sun
 Breeding life
 Make her sleep
 In my heart
 There she waits Fire
 And I feel the rays
 Closing in on me
 And her spirit stays Fire

Cold Earth Chamber (music & lyrics: Tarvonen) What grief and obscurity surround my soul like an autumn night on a barren earth? Insignificant to suffer here The struggle eternal and futile No heaven I desire nor the night of inferno Never indulge a wench in my arms Away from the sense of despair All in all the soundless void (Hearken now what I beg) Build a house of the underworld my dwelling in earth to hide Dig my grave near the guarding elms and cover it with black gems Then forever leave my court In peace I want to rest A hill shall never mount on my grave but the earth turns under the meadow None shall know my resting chamber under the frosted elm

(music & lyrics: Laine) The Pining Silence Crying From Solitude Wandering Pathways Waving From Grass Beside The Fence Lies The Mortal Clay The Echoes From The Past Flavoured By Dismay Bleed For The One Who Scattered In Sorrow The Stars Above Her Foreshadowed A lorn Tomorrow And As I'm Crawling Across The Weedy Acres Towards The Dismal Calm That In The Soil Awaits Each Morn A Thousand Heartaches Will Bring Moreover To The Woes Of Yesterday The Pining Silence Crying From Solitude Wandering Pathways Waving From Grass And As I'm Crawling Across The Weedy Acres Towards The Dismal Calm That In The Soil Awaits By Day I Find No Comfort Nor Repose By Night The Stars Are Calling Luring With Their Divine Light Bleed For The One Who Scattered In Sorrow The Stars Above Her Foreshadowed Deserted Morrows
