Finitude

Des siècles à construire Un empire de fumée, Germé par l’orgueil l’inconscience guidant Vers de sombres desseins l’extinction dévoilée à l'orée d’un matin Pauvres pleutres, cessez ! Ces prières sont vaines Les efforts désuets, les regrets n’y font rien Contemplez l’ultime œvre D’un peuple aux abois, voyez ce que vous êtes Miséreux à genoux [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] Limpides, sont les choses Quand on daigne s'éveiller Plongé dans une fange, Trop tard pour regretter Un passé d'égarement, Une issue sans retour, Vision de terre brûlée Nue n’est infrangible La preuve en est flagrante À se prendre pour dieu, On se brûle les ailes À maîtriser le feu, À changer une histoire Seule une chose à glaner, Une nénie aux mortels…

A lost battle rages on Invisible yet all embracing A great war without fight or violence Between what is and what never was See sons of pride and strife Stare, look at the doom that destroys us The parables of life and death collapses And reveals a black sun On the spherical battleground Heirs of this petty world disband Running blindly through a maze With a thousand doors and a single key See sons of pride and strife Stare, look at the fate that consumes us Behold the monolith of flesh that emerges And the raving sky there over Lifting into eerie piles Left to rot in lavish filth Wretched earthly souls that come and leave Wandering on the horizon with no way and no future A neverending descent, a journey to the beyond Helpless soldiers unarmed and trapped Soon devoured by oblivion Lightening up just to die In a moment lost in time Quivering sparks in the abyss They once lived, laughed and grieved A distant echo of the past A thousand worlds of old See sons of pride and strife Stare, look at the end that awaits us And now carry the weight of your shameful form of man Behold the monolith of flesh that emerges And the raving sky there over Lifting into eerie piles Left to rot in lavish filth Lost is this battle, run for your life Reaches through the flesh and the sublime Where dwellers of the sky, earth and sea Will escape soon from these tragedies

I drift into timeless time Spaceless space nightless night Neither here or elsewhere Stars sparkle all around me Staring at me like golden eyes Foreign memories keep coming back Where do I begin and leave off? The stiff breeze in the dark pines The invisible grass. The swarming stars All those shadows of transfigured faces Exulting in madness [Acoustic Guitar Solo: J.Smith] [Bass Guitar Solo: M.Barrios] [Guitar Solo: D.Bathija] [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] Blurred visions of elusive sight Existence and worlds left untold Break the chains of the universe To open the gates for all of us

In the unfilled and silent river Flowing on the outer edge of space Where the body never came That only the dreamer can access Through the gold void ! The fleet of phantoms of old Whose shapes are long forgotten Can tell the paths and seasons Of the farthest worlds and suns Guide us ! Guide us, through the cold void ! [Guitar solo: J.Smith] Guide us ! Guide us, through the cold void ! Join us and fall in the stream ! A steep descent into the abyss of time

An external vision. For the very first time A view of the human race in its true form It is too easy to penetrate Their minds no telepathy required They believe they have divine intelligence That their judgment is right Drifting through their bodies Coursing through their veins Resistance is futile against us ! We’ll ruin your peaceful life Forcing you into submission Inevitable, we spread throughout The darkest places uncontrollable. We do as we please. We are insidious. We are poison ! We are the destroyers of hope We use your weapons against you Nothing you can do ! Plunging your world into fear and sadness General uncertainty sense of emergency Time is ticking no knowledge of when time is up While everything collapses into nameless chaos Earthling idols are falling one by one and security is no longer [Bass Guitar Solo: M Barrios] [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] Inn their downfall, they crushed and shattered Everything in their path and their creators Ended up in a pile of dust The emptiness reveals the past decline The world is no longer save And returns painfully to its primal form Losing touch with reality In your final hour

Everything goes away, fades away, Vanishes in time each corpse Is a shadow which escapes nothingness Slowly falling into the hardships Of the infinite world As if nothing had ever existed No matter, no spirit When the brightness Of the sky disappears Nobody can resist This supreme embrace Through the storm of time In the darkness of the void Its presence is raging Devouring in unexplored depths All shapes that venture Into its ferocious empire [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] Inn a deeper haze, with no more hope Wind is rising from the horizon A huge veil appears in the sky Hiding the radiance of the stars A lonely walk begins Towards a faraway light It’s too late It’s a past dream [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] Decay, despair and finally silence Sinking into the void of ignorance

In girum imus nocte ecce Et consumimur igni Un immense feu brûle Au-dessus de nos têtes Une chose commune Depuis des millénaires Mais un jour sans prévenir Des traits de lumière Jaillissent, et platinent les visages [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] Nul temps de comprendre, Qu’un chœur de hurlements Déchire le paysage Chacun perdant la vue, Dans une pluie chaude Les naseaux tremblants, Et fondants dans la gueule Un silence comme dans une clairière Une douce odeur de chair, De sang, se révèle un instant Telle une cérémonie aux parfums d’encens Une meute de corps évaporée soudain [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] Tableau d’une civilisation Le rituel se prolonge, lavée, purifiée Le soleil terminal a fait couler le sang Telle une épitaphe dans une magie dorée, Un feu incandescent…

The last rays of the red moon Enlighten the ruins Of the forgotten world The deafening silence Rings across the dead fields Through the ever growing void From the mountain top, it watches It sees the creatures gathering For the sins of their forefathers And the kingdom they see crumbling Devouring the light Scorching the earth Absorbing the few Condemning the many The fight was over before it began No living soul will remain The future has been claimed And so the past was in vein With his last breath, The last man cries “Why ?” To the gateway in the sky But the portal remained Silent as death Call down the stars ! Open the portal ! The judgement has began Apollo is dying All hail the new sun ! Cowards and sinners shall perish as they roam trough The ashes of celestial war [Guitar Solo: J.Smith] [Guitar Solo: A.M.Bogado] [Guitar Solo: M.Barrios] [Guitar Solo: DP.Bathija] Call down the stars ! Open the portal ! The judgement has begun Apollo is dying All hail the new sun ! Cowards and sinners shall perish ! Clueless cattle, meaningless souls The chosen ones escaped this hell As the weak roam the ashes Of celestial war !
