Codex Gigas

This wall is full of fire, this wall is full of hate A moving dynamo which finds no escape My mother was a maiden abducted by the priest A victim of his rape my birth did not resist The monks, the ones who raised me The Thoughts my only friend Can't find the remedy to unchain this pain The Order execrates me, they just treat me with no name I have to pay the price of curses that were made I'm Recluse, Living Sin There's no room for my dreams Falling within my dreams! I will never know, I will never know Where's the door to cross? I have to keep on writing oblivions of the will The only destiny I can fulfil But now he wants me to get out of here And leave this tower I don't know what to think, is this my final hour? I felt like I'd never had the chance to be released I wanted to escape but "you won't" they said It's me, the real, falling down and blue, owooh And the gates were opened to me, oh god No reclusion, living free, execution of my dreams Mind pollution, no solution I'm Recluse, Living Sin There's no room for my dreams Falling within my dreams!

Lost in confusion, I was sitting alone Came out of nowhere and she made me feel strong I listened very closely to the secrets of my life She said: "break the glass and see your fate, Let your spirit rise into the air". Caught in her magic, she puts me in trance Pure revelations under her spell She guided, promised but lied about tomorrow Golden power Now it's better to pray, cause this is the end! As a matter of fact, there's a warning I have to see It will show me the things, the future I'll have to live And a matter of days when I'll see you around the sea Hear the call of the gypsy, she wants to make believe There was a portal that she told me to cross She made the spells but we never returned She guided, promised but lied about tomorrow Rage of fire No more reasons to pray, this is the end! As a matter of fact, there's a warning I have to see It will show me the things, the future I'll have to live And a matter of days when I'll see you around the sea Hear the call of the gypsy, she wants to make believe

Even a sinful life, deserves one last chance You may achieve the light, in this holy place All the forgiveness that you seek Is deep within you I don't believe in fantasies Don't believe in Grace, In Grace... Prophet of ancient light, looking for truth Reaching the facts you hide, of wisdom and you All of the knowledge that you need Is deep within you I don't believe in fantasies Don't believe in Grace, In Grace... Turn up the fire Cause I still don't believe in grace In Grace...

You cannot believe all that I saw Self-flagellation was the key To reach the right state of soul And the transcendence of the being Commanded to beat themselves in sombre silence The giants of stone are dead on desert islands The sun relentlessly burning each and every day Unhappiness on the edge of town In the City of Pain They're fading away In the City of Pain They're going insane They purify their souls to reach it all I talked to a man with no return Blood tears were falling on the sand He gave a sigh and fell to the ground And right before my eyes he died His body began to shine into the darkness The radiance was so bright, and I was blinded I will is brave, and won't disappear Out in the shadows and the distance within Oh, I know what I gotta do I'm gonna let you be mine 'til doom In the City of Pain They're fading away In the City of Pain They're going insane The sun relentlessly burning each and every day Unhappiness on the edge of town In the City of Pain They're fading away In the City of Pain They're going insane

You gotta wake up, it's getting cold The exorcism of shadows has begun While you were blaspheming in your sleep You were saying "Sophia stay with me!" Now you know where to find me... In the Valley, the Valley of St. Mark Where the destiny is hidden in the dark In the Valley, the Valley of St. Mark Where your previous life will not be seen again You crossed the gate through the thunderstorm With the promise of shining life reform Foolish blind disciples. Betrayal always hides. And no, no, no, no, no never stops Now you know where to find me... In the Valley, the Valley of St. Mark Where the destiny is hidden in the dark In the Valley, the Valley of St. Mark Where your previous life will not be seen again There is no heaven without a hell If you try to remain you will burn as well... Burn, burn! In the city, may you find no return... No! Now you know where to find me... In the Valley, the Valley of St. Mark Where the destiny is hidden in the dark In the Valley, the Valley of St. Mark Where your previous life will not be seen again

You believe that I'm chosen to be sacred But my faith has been broken in your temple Do you think you can guide me to the light? All the words have been spoken, you're the keeper No more illusions of what we will see There is no pain that will let you be free Keeper of the Light! Illuminated will be the one Who can teach me the way to the path I've lost A new dimension inside my head Where I know I will find all that never ends In the night it shines so bright, won't let me se No more illusions of what we will see There is no pain that will let you be free You believe that I'm chosen to be guided And my pledge will be broken by your blindness Do you think you're the one to win this fight? Scream in vain whilst we hear you! No more illusions of what we will see There is no pain that will let you be free

You gave me a reason to stay Before you compelled me to go away Into the eyes of the strangers Your shadow will never disappear You left me there under the rain I felt so cold, I was so afraid All alone crying for mercy Your shadow will never set me free Won't you save my soul, it's much too cold Won't you even care, before it's too late I wanna take it to never end Inside my dirty walls And let you see what you want to know The seeds you never sowed Feeling desire it's a sin that I regret Drink the mercy of your wine I'm knocking at the gates Won't you save my soul, it's much too cold Won't you even care, before it's too late You left me there under the rain I felt so cold, I was so afraid All alone crying for mercy Your shadow will never set me free

Oh, fake illusion. I crave the gypsy every hungry night Wheels of confusion I prevented her from crossing the portal Wings of delusion, I would do anything to sink the monk Only solution, Lock her into my cell Shutting any connection I know it is a sin but I've done it before Into the fire she will see who is the only one I am committing a crime of lust Lying, running against the odds Oh...Reaching the Flames of Desire Please god, illuminate my darkest hour Good lord, protect while I find the holiness Crying imprisoned The gypsy weeps in silence every night Lustful ambition, the sky is falling on my alibis I know she's never seen the luxurious force Into the fire she will see who is the only one I am committing a crime of lust Lying, running against the odds Oh...Reaching the Flames of Desire Oh, fake illusion You are caught between the shadows of your mind Fake institution We brought inside the silence every night

He's the load I have to carry, he's a fatal big mistake Filled my times of dark and sorrow Misery and deep disgrace You may say that I am crazy, try to understand I'm the one who makes you see the light of day You can say that I am crazy, try to understand He's the one who'll make you see the place to dwell Where do we go? I wanna know where is my final exile Show me the way into the blaze and I will never think twice Where do we go? I wanna know where is my final exile Tell me the truth, where is the fuse and I will burn it so high He will get into the cloister but he'll never see your face You will keep enclosed forever in the silence of your cell You can say that I am crazy, try to understand I'm the one who holds the future in my hand He's the bringer of hardship On the punishment stone I can read on his clouded mind He wants to take my throne Where do we go? I wanna know where is my final exile Show me the way into the blaze and I will never think twice Where do we go? I wanna know where is my final exile Tell me the truth, where is the fuse and I will burn it so high Where do we go? I wanna know where is my final exile Show me the way into the blaze and I will never think twice Where do we go? I wanna know where is my final exile Tell me the truth, where is the fuse and I will burn it so high

You are not welcome cursing this place We reject your visions. Claws fallen from grace Where is the brave man who wishes to leave? I don't even know you! Go away! Treason is your damnation There's a price to pay Unholy rites, farewell of light Walled up in cellars of pain Shameful is the reign Evil Warning, screaming in the grave Evil Warning You dare to ask me how to redress Your insane transgression. Raper of angels What would you offer to keep alive? Glorify this temple! Fix your crime Book of wonders, time has gone Finish right before the dawn Live another day Evil Warning, screaming in the grave Evil Warning Evil Warning, screaming in the grave Evil Warning

In the silence of mythical dungeons There's a presence who offers survival Blackened spiritual agnostic unction Guide my hand for another black bible Redemption seems to spare Holy ghost, protect my soul Hand of doom, writing an outer book No light, hiding the truth of the uncanny book Great trial, my inspiration came from beyond An impossible task will be finished Sacred treasure of knowledge and rituals Silver and gold won't come along Holding an earthly power Lost in the middle of your (ha ha) heart Someone is taking my place Holy ghost, protect my soul Hand of doom, writing an outer book
