Emanations
04:28

Every kind of virtue can also be a vice
Even unchecked mercy comes with an unexpected sacrifice...
A great tyranny born of the Twins of God
The Pillar of Severity unbalanced could unleash such might
Only in the darkness can we hope to see the light that's Ever-Shining
Ever casting shadows
And throughout all time
There've been two sides
To everything you see
All shades seem black
On the side that the light can't reach
Diverse emanations wrought from the averse tree of life
Are aspects of creation brought to their own degrees of pain and strife
Cast aside the chains of shame for there's no such thing as "right"
You were born without a master
And if you cross the veil you'll see the Light Less Blinding
And embrace the shadows
As a part of light
Though beyond the reach of sight...
Shining
Even from the shadows
Are the Liers-in-Wait in their hidden spaces
Shunned by all but the very few who see
Blinding
To the realm of shadows
Is the need for light
To always shine
On everything
Fighting
With the very shadows
That throughout all time
You'll always find
In everything you see

Enchanter, Destroyer
05:06

I alone hold the keys
Of your most deeply held desires
But don't speak my name
Among the others...
Through me you shall unfold
The darkest of all mysteries
But we both know
That's why you came
You shall see
Perfectly
Your Destiny
Just Come with me
And you will see....
(Calm bridge)
For I am both Enchanter and Destroyer
And you shall know my name is
AZAG-BELIA'AL
Only the few shall say this
For those from without
May not speak the words
Keep these secrets safe and
You shall know unbounded power
I am one yet I am 7
The true master of the earth

Hero's Plight
03:43
|

If only you knew
The way that you would feel
If I could come save you away
From some terrible fate one day
Such is the
Hero's plight...
I know you would love me if I could save you
Hear those cries
Oh, how they would praise me if they knew I saved you
Though for now you seem fine
Just wait 'till the day
When you realize you need me
And I'll arrive just in time
To take you away
You'll be the hero's prize
I know you will love me when I come save you
Tears in your eyes
Forever grateful for the life I gave you
Dear, you're alive
And you'll always know it's 'cause I'm your savior
Here's where you smile
And shower me with praises 'cause you know I saved the day
Where would you be without me?
Really where would you be without me?
Well soon you'll all see...
Just wait....
Soon you'll all see...
How I am a hero
I never meant...to really put you in harm's way
I thought I'd save the day
But the flames were just far too great, love
To have you treat me this way
So now you have to pay
But I'll shed a
Tear for the lives
For the ones trapped inside so that I could save you
Heroes cry
How far I would have gone so they could see me save you

Identity
04:13
|

I've lost my way
Who I once thought that I was, is gone
Somehow I've wandered astray
And all I can feel is withdrawn
There's no way of knowing the extent of this growing disdain
Losing all sense of who I am
And all of the things that I thought I was, cause only pain
There's no way of knowing the extent of this growing disdain
Losing all sense of who I am
And all of the things that I thought I was, drive me insane....insane....
The emptiness never subsides
and nothing is ever enough
To bring me a moment of peace inside
There's no way of slowing these whispers of growing disdain
Now that I've lost all that I am
There's no sense in grasping at sources of unending pain

Salvabit Infirmum
Salvabit Infirmum
God has abandoned us
Go to sleep my child
For God has abandoned us
Forever sleep my child
The pungent stench of Death
Fills the air
And there's no place left
To bury the mountains of dead
Salvabit Infirmum
Salvabit Infirmum
They say it rides
On the winds of the east
Is this the wrath of God
Or the Beast?
Either way...
It seems that
God has abandoned us
Go to sleep my child
For God has abandoned us
Forever sleep my child...
Yes God has abandoned us
Just Go to sleep my child
For God has abandoned us
Forever sleep my child...
God has abandoned us
Go to sleep my child
For God has abandoned us
Forever sleep my child...
