Terra

The fuse is about to burn Energy ignites the frames The halo around and through Flares in sea-colour blue The fable is about to regain No order is here to endure Disruption will come through Final eruption of the icy blue Hypothermic future Gate to a new existence Never to let anyone through Neither a glimpse nor a view Earth concealed, never again to be revealed An evolutionary implosion, summary erosion Mankind had its chance, no more advance Diode Earth The route is about to turn Failed existence - error An ending has come through That summons me and you Earth concealed, never again to be revealed An evolutionary implosion, summary erosion Mankind had its chance, no more advance Diode Earth

Sitting in the subterranean chamber Embraced by the vast solitariness Seclusion congealed by a vision's ember That speaks the words of science grandness And light determination in my soul To unite with Terra and the mysterious Order that lives on this crude pole And transmits feelings of the ecstatic and delirious The Arctic Fever tempers me to explore The environment and my emotions I'm an extraterrestrial in this secretive lore Tested by organism's corrosion Like the wind is strong Our relation is equally fragile Contaminated, and then lost? (Exposed, and then refined?) An oganelle and mind reconcile With the tundra, delta and every path I've crossed Surrounded by millions, billions, zillions of species But sometimes still I feel alone 'Cause microbes carry such neutral facies Their expressions are trapped in ice and stone But if I ever leave, I will return 'Cause my blood is heated by the Arctic Fever My body frozes but my soul burns So, I'm both transmitter and receiver For the climate's magnitudes...

Glacial deserts surround this habitat Where lounges are slaves to the Northern gale An inaccessible position on an inaccessible plat Here, even daylight feels immensely pale My journey took me across the Arctic Ocean Where lonely horizons are rife I've told them my heartfelt devotion "To see the untouched regions of life" The permafrost is serving as soil Absorbing the rays from above Its texture reminds of the stone's toil To defeat time, to become Jove Snowfields cover the end, the vertical And plants in ice-covered water, and their notion That concentrates organic particles As a roof that seals the rhythmic motion Here, photosynthesis can't support life Still somethins stirs beneath Its strength cuts like the sharpest knife When it travels towards that ceiling underneath I am an explorer with a pure dream To find existence in the purest form A rover that passes the coldest stream And fight the coldest storm

In this wasteland mankind has found its curse The suffocative coldness and the ice storms Still, I am standing on a frozen universe A sealed space for unknown life forms Where centuries of blizzards have paraded To conceal organisms' survival From a distant sun this essence invaded Our world, tender and pervial A riddle in Cosmo biology Existence without metabolism and fetor Crystallized cells that found an analogy To breed inside a massive isolator Under the hostile surface, dwelling in the dark Like a mysterious and unseen ghost Waiting to consume daylight's spark And find a suitable host Imitating the known human guise A bacterium supernatural From hidden depths in the multilayered ice It adapted to a new material A riddle in Cosmo biology Existence without metabolism and fetor Crystallized cells that found an analogy To breed inside a massive isolator It was iceolated Until it gyrated Around our numb and innermost structure Until it became our host

This track is instrumental.

Is this song not instrumental?

I've conjured my vision awake To render excitement to pride I visit the old for this sake And credulously follow the guide A natural thought which I can't omit Outspoken by the sagacious alp Leading me upwards to the summit That the luminary sun scalps Thousands of obstacles pass my way Mile-wide rivers and abyss-deep questionings Within my sense I feel astray Effected by the human reasoning The greatest alp is my own perception Of my skills in relation with the rock So, the highest summit is the senses' inception Not a planetesimal or material parrock At childhood I started to climb manhood At manhood I climb the future Progression is the only ladder Good enough to mount failure To my awareness I am the same factor As the blizzard is to the mountainside A both creative and destructive actor That carries the circumstances inside Amongs Alps - my mind is the highest peak

The polar sun protrudes Through the frozen wilderness As the endeavours of the silent wanderer Summon in vain Cease to exist as the blood crystallizes Blending with snow I am there; I was here - in Nature's fierce trap The flesh is frozen Covered by layers of numbling snowflakes Assail at this square of ice Amidst the enervating worlds A dream of endurance torn to pieces Hollow and in vain This is my last passage Through the state of being sane Equal to nonexistence, drifting away Untamed courses, swifts astray To another time, to another bay To a nonexistence... At the top of the world, yet in deepest sorrow The endeavouring character of cruelty and Jove The brilliance of death, the pursuant of life Rumbling at this square of my deterioration The polar moon protrudes Through the frozen wilderness I am amonst the pale, frozen haze, like a dream The light weakens upon the sea of everlast Yet the horizon is crystal bright The air cold and light Equal to nonexistence, drifting away Untamed courses, swifts astray To another time, to another bay To a nonexistence...

Frozen columns spearing the horizon Gazing throughout the stellar endlessness Alone at the peak of sole endurance Under the blue and desolated skies At the frontier of the icy wasteland Grid by the urge for a new conquest A discovery, a spiritual recovery A moment of profound release Illumine - the everlasting path Illumine - the broad horizon At the polar mesial, the foreland To unleash, rove and to cease No way back at the end of this track Where the sun is my friend, fiend and disease At the end of the icy wasteland The last resort, the last deport Traces beyond the stellar map Coexistent from here on Illumine - the noble moments Illumine - the cause of those I am here to die...
