My light shines over the mountain top, Flooding the land with light and warmth, Heating the soil, melting the snow The rivers shine with my ethereal light. The rays of my eternal warmth bring light to this world, Worship my light and my love. My light shines down between the clouds, Shaping my crepuscular rays, A vision of natures of art Created by the sky The rays of my eternal warmth bring light to this world, Worship my light and my love. A vision of light, a vision of love, the feeling of warmth upon your fair skin (x3) A vision of light, a vision of love, fading away beyond the Horizon.

Two sides, one great land. The blood soaks into the snow, Ignoring a greater evil, One which we don’t know Steel and shield will clash (A land divided) Old friends are now foes (A land divided) One side doomed to fall (A land divided) A land divided (x3) A kingdom turned to ash A looming threat turns it’s head, yet no-one meets its gaze. All men choose to ignore, fighting their petty wars Soon the tides will rise (A land divided) Cities burned to ash (A land divided) And famine of the land (A land divided) A land divided (x3) A world turned to ash This world, it shall fall (No survivors at all) They beg at my knees (Pleading for their world “Please!”) Humanity suffers (Humanity dies) By their own hand (They struggle through their plight) Watch as they crawl (Like rats, they are all) Forsaking what gave them (Life, love and warmth) Now they are doomed to (Suffer their mistakes) Left in anguish (And fueled by their self hate) Forever (x4)

I dream of a land coloured emerald, A forest viridian and green. Untouched by greed and corrupted, Mans imprint nowhere to be seen. I dream of a land coloured emerald, A land where clear waters gleam! I wander through the treeline, Dreaming of a world left untouched. As I walk through the foliage I can see the scars left by those who came before me. Destroying without care, Ruined, for those who once called it home. I dream of a land coloured emerald, A forest viridian and green. Untouched by greed and corrupted, Mans imprint nowhere to be seen. I dream of a land coloured emerald, A land where clear waters gleam! An image of nature pocked and scarred, By man-made disease, thrown to the ground. Poisoning the land and those who live from it, Caring not for suffering their cause. I watch, helpless, as destruction rages on. Stricken by guilt for fellow man. I dream of a land coloured emerald, A forest viridian and green. Untouched by greed and corrupted, Mans imprint nowhere to be seen. I dream of a land coloured emerald, A land where clear waters gleam! I dream of a land coloured emerald, A forest viridian and green. Untouched by greed and corrupted, Mans imprint nowhere to be seen. I dream of a land coloured emerald, A land where clear waters gleam, Untouched by greed and corruption Mans imprint nowhere to be seen. I dream (x2)

I watch from a distance, As my body rots Into carrion, feeding the earth. My soul is lost in the endless forest, I can not rest, awake in eternal sleep! My mind is awake, yet my body dead. I can not rest, doomed to walk the earth.

Through the eyes of madness, The sane seem insane, In a world of evil, The righteous are condemned. At the end of the river, Brainwashed become sane, At the end of the river, Righteous ones will fall. The man who kills the righteous god, Is the man who carries the torch, The ones who follow to be free, Soon will all fall. At the end of the river, Brainwashed become sane, At the end of the river, Righteous ones will fall.

Banished from my homeland, Betrayed by my kin. I must search for a new home, To rest my sorrowed head. I am a wanderer, I walk alone. No-one to help me, I search for a home. I peril frozen wastes, I fight starvation. Kept alive by my heart, The coldness sets in. I am a wanderer, I walk alone. No-one to guide me, I search for a throne. Freezing, Starving (x2) (I just need to stop, Stop for a minute and think, What could this do? How could this hurt my friends? By doing this, Who do I hurt?) My valour restored, I battle on, The bleak forest fades, I’ve found my new home. I was a wanderer, I walked alone. No-one to guide me, I’ve found my new home. I was a wanderer, I fought alone. The world against me, I’ve killed for my throne.

Destruction is a form of creation, My species is here to destroy, Taking without giving, Claiming as our own. Earth's time is over, There is so much more. We are nothing, Our time has come, We are nothing, New chapters begun. In our selfish ways, We conquered what isn’t ours. Our world is forsaken, A scourge on the universe. When the earth is gone, There is so much more. We are nothing, Our time has come, We are nothing, New chapters begun. We have our second chance. We aren’t nothing, Our path is clear, We are living, New chapter is here.
