THOUGHTS
--------
(Music/Lyrics: Efthimis)

Sit by me, my friend
Enjoy eternal life
Listen to my words
They might be wise...

Why people cry for the end
Why do they scare for death
While they're believing in
Eternal life which gives them
the cance to rest ... in time ...

Questions've made by
the secrets of my mind
While I'm thinking how I'll be ... dying ....

"Finishing your life"
"Finishing the pain"
It's a risk to believe what they say

I hear the voices of millions of men
Belong to the past they still remain
Souls in dust, memories craft
Release your thoughts I'll support you


DOMESTICATION OF WILDNESS
-------------------------
(Music/Lyrics: Efthimis)

Nature reveals its warning sign
Rivers and trees helpless they're dying
Hidden from evil seeds all over around
In my kingdom of peace people aren't allowed

See what they've done, destroy the land
And nothing but pain is what they've got
Visions of lunacy with tombs all around
Burning flames desires for chaos

Beyond our sight and all of the evil minds
There where I rest under colorfull skies
The river I hear and my "Gods" appear
With kindful presents, eyes full of tears

Is what I believe, in power of mind
Near to people but out of their sight
Soon, I'll return back to my home
In nature of darkness where I was born

They try again to domesticate my flame
The feeling of wild, as before they tried
Believing in me, in my soul and flesh
Omit the pain, in peace I'll rest


VANITY
------
(Music/Lyrics: Efthimis)

Lying on my bed, thinking of my end...
Nothing, satisfies me, world's dead
Vanity...


THE PASSAGE
-----------
(Music: Christian / Lyrics: Efthimis)

Variety of thoughts, deep within my mind
Memories from the past
Lost in the labyrinth in front of walls I stand
Fairies dressed in white the message is to die

Find the passage, the passage to the light

Lost in the labyrinth of image amd thoughts
Die, immortal lie, mortal pain
Damnation of the reign


IN GOD THEY TRUST (Intro)
-----------------


FOR MY SOUL, WHEN THE DARK FALLS INTO...
----------------------------------------
(Music/Lyrics: Efthimis)

Horror and agony, darkest brains reign here
Emptiness of "modern" life, sentence me to die

The vails of "black" and "lie" have been fallen
Front of eyes, in our minds, darker than the night
Destiny calls my nature, take me away from here
I won't die, I wanna fight, to build my own illusion

Corruption is not offence, but freedom always is
Creators of depair minds, rules of our lives

For my soul, when the dark fall into...
For my soul, when the dark fall into my heart


IMMACULATE / ENSLAVED BY NEED
-----------------------------
(Music: Christian / Lyrics: Efthimis)

"Forcing" now your life
For ending it up in the sky
In the kingdom of your god
Far from earth's "trap"
Face now the end
As your flesh's gone ripped

In the sight of the sinners
Where we all belong for you
Rivers of tears, even Christ
Would have laughed with you

Rotten beliefs surround you with fear
And dust's what you're made of
Nonthinking mass
Being obsessed ny immaculation
Away from human needs
Love to "hate" your body
The place where your soul is rest

Temptations, the kinds of nature
Controlled by what's above, the sky
Rivers of tears are falling
Obsessions that torture your life

You're falling apart
In the hell of your god
Avoid the lies
With "sins" for you
My blesses to you


BIRTH (Intro)
-----


CRYING OUT THE FEAR WITHIN
--------------------------
(Music/Lyrics: Efthimis)

Death and life in this world
It's not the romatic thing
Living now for just to die
And after death there's a life

Wishes and hopes for immortal life
But none can see the truth in sight
Failed to live in promise land
Mind and body to live apart ?

Cry now for the end
While you're lying on your bed
With angels upon your head
And demons to eat your flesh

Crying out the fear within
Believe it you not live a dream
No more gospels from above
Telling what's right or wrong

Join the life my friend
Living with us till the end
"Fallen angels" as they say
Is to live your own way

Live your life as a bird, away from the rest
Apart from those who are crying
Begging to survive

Proudly remain the same, even when
You're near the end
You don't have to cry, to go to paradise
