Sounds From a Dying World

1. The Road to Damnation (music & lyrics by Vlad; guitar solo by Urosh) I’m passing through infinite void, the road to damnation For centuries it has been foretold that I am the One No light in this desolate space, no sign of salvation The sorcerer said he’ll be there to open the gate Then from the mist a figure appeared its cloak was black as the night With skinless hands it reached out to me I heard its voice in my mind I am the ruler of Hell, king of your soul I am the bringer of pain, here in this hole witness your fall I’m holding the sword in my hand, blade of the pure vengeance I know now I have been betrayed by those I once saved For only this steel I can trust, my faithful companion And before my life turns to dust, I’ll go down fighting Once I was free, one with the wind heir to the throne of the Earth Then came the day hope disappeared crushed with the dark magick Why am I here in this realm, into the storm? You have been summoned at last, doomed is your soul, now hear my words You think you were born from your mother’s womb but seed that created you was mine I watched as you grew, seen what you’ve become the last piece of my prophecy Now that the truth is revealed, pain is no longer in me Even my life was a lie, but now I'm ready to die And as I stand on my feet, clenching the hilt on my sword The only thing you will feel is cold embrace of my steel Now I’m the ruler of Hell, queen of all souls I am the bringer of death, second to none I am the ruler of Hell, queen of all souls I am the bringer of death, second to none, witness the fall

2. Old Mountain (music by Dejana & Vlad; lyrics by Vlad) To know the gods is to deny all of my fears, all I have been This pain, immortal My blade yields to the hammer This rage, destroyer My name cursing the heavens The breath is cold, sleep comes to me I close my eyes and dream of home This pain, immortal My blade yields to the hammer This rage, destroyer My name cursing the heavens Where sunlight dies in darkened skies Away we go to the mountain of old On frozen throne, in caves below the seer awaits, our fate is foretold

3. Cimmeria (music by Goran & Vlad; lyrics by Vlad; guitar solo by Urosh) Born on the field of the battle arched by the grey clouds Baptized in rain from the heavens and clamor of dying men Oh, sombre land, Your stillness is yet to be broken Endless you stand Only your name is forgotten Follow the trail of the ravens voices of ancient woods Cold winds are louder than thunder shrouded in eternal night

4. Blood-Red Shield (music by Dejana & Vlad; lyrics by Vlad; guitar solo by Urosh) Falling snow over mountains Time to go on this road again On the silent shore I await for the long boats to return home See the trail of the ancient glory See the sky where the ravens reign See the sign of the distant thunder Oden’s light that will show the way Father, I stand as the equal to the chosen whom are given your power to wield and to carry the honor ‘cross the seas to the lands of endless spring Clad in iron with blood-red shield Path of destiny is revealed Blood-maiden proudly stands on the battlefield Shield-maiden, she will feast in the halls of the dead Father, I lay as the equal to the fallen whom are given your mercy to stand in the courts of Valhalla and to be in the land of endless spring

5. Rage of the White Wolf (music & lyrics by Vlad; guitar solo by Urosh) Time’s running out and there is no salvation towers are burning in a raging storm In my last moment I see portals blazing The wizard runs towards the light divine Out of the dark comes a hope, dawn of a new age The Elven blood of the old, baptised in fire Fire & blood His bones are broken but his spirit’s restless His mind is tainted by revenge and death Upon his journey he will face betrayal but none can stand against the destiny Out of the dark comes a hope, dawn of a new age The Elven blood of the old, baptised in fire Fire & blood

6. The Final Journey (music by Dejana, Goran & Vlad; lyrics by Vlad; guitar solo by Urosh) Fear holds the key to madness See how the mighty fall Past light of kingdom once so glorious Fading like dying embers in ocean full of stars Closing the chapter of this story Last song of countless voices Last breath of ancient home No one heed the final warning coming from the crimson skies Onward to our final journey Sail on deep into the night And on a black horizon veiled in the moonless shade all of our memories soon will fade away Red giant lost his battle drowned in a scarlet storm New life is waiting to be born Last song of countless voices Last breath of ancient home Oh, so far away, crossing the vast universe there is a chance to renew all the choices we made So far away, crossing the vast universe there is a chance for the choices we made

7. Blackest Void (music by Dejana & Vlad; lyrics by Vlad) What is this barren place? Feels so cold and dark in here I call but silence answers me My voice is lost in endless space No, no! In time the vision starts to clear shaping things inside my mind Before me stands a massive stone Monolith of ancient gods As I’m staring into heavens all I see is blackened void Light is dying in my eyes Could it be it’s just a dream or a distant memory from another life and time? Cause it all seems so unreal but I’m still not waking up I wish all is just a dream As I’m gazing into heavens all I see is blackened void Light is dying in my eyes and I’m falling into darkness merging with the blackest void Life is fading from my eyes

8. Astral Rider (Cloven Hoof cover) (music & lyrics by Lee Payne & Russ North) Take a trip out of consciousness across the great divide Astral thought projection suspended in time Flying high through cosmic oceans supernatural skies Leave the Earthbound minions so very far behind As one with the universe, beyond pleasure and pain Die hard retrogression, being reborn again Nightriders on the astral planes Frontiers of meditation the search for inner light Take a look through the minds eye on an endless flight Between the gates of forever void of love and hate Life and death have no meaning in animated state A spectrum of fantastic colours Incandescent bright Vibrating on a timeless wavelength a vision of paradise We're gonna take you to a place where the king of terror reigns Carnage and mutilation degredates your burning remains

Drawn to the altar where demon awaits Invoked by the power of ancestral hate Lurking in shadows, a childlike in form Save for his eyes of prime evil reborn I call you, Knight of the swords Your servant once and for all Lord of the dark I am yours to command Eternal champion - your faith guides my hand Darkness and magick, the Chaos awake Stormbringer wants all the souls he can take You asked for vengeance It shall be yours I call you, The Dragonlord Your master once and for all And I keep falling far from the light I found My fate remains forlorn - Elric Dragonlord
