Anomalie Visions 1. Vision I: Towards The Sun Read the signs within the fires! Feel their message deep inside! Hear the voices of those shadows and hear their songs across the night! We are nothing but flying sparks, small lights thrown into the void. A gleam of hope, where darkness prevails! Some came to remember, some came to forget Some came to burn... to burn what they regret! And while the moon soon lays to rest We will stay to give our best, to do what must be done to guide our friends towards the sun! Incende quod adorasti, adora quod incendisti! 2. Vision II: The Wanderer I – the wanderer a nomad of the other side transmitter of old secrets roaming through the tides I –the warrior the shield for the weak I call the ancient ones The spirits within, the ghosts of the past oh, deliver us from sin! This is my sacrifice invoking the forces beyond The fire's burning deep inside In the name of life, for those I've lost, I carry my cross! The essence of existence expires like the embers of an ashen dream But light shall return in innocence with the first gleam of a yet arcane divinity! I – the messenger the voice of the speechless keeper of the flames, of the face with many names! I am the silent shout awakening the petrified A guardian of old a flame of the gods the saviour of the lost! This is my sacrifice invoking the forces beyond The fire's burning deep inside In the name of life, for those I've lost, I carry my cross! 3. Vision III: A Monument Sometimes in my dreams I see the lands that I once called home I see eyes full of joice full of undiluted hope! Sometimes in my dreams it takes my breath away to hear the whisper of the winds telling what no one else could say! Reflections of old manifest the transience of all that I behold of all that once was told! I tried to clutch what I've lost long time ago what haunts my soul when I close my eyes and let my mind go! A monument that I can't touch 'cause it's too great to reach A monument that I cannot see 'cause it's too wide to percieve. Sometimes in my dreams I see the lands that I once called home I see eyes full of joice full of undiluted hope! Sometimes in my dreams it takes my breath away to hear the whisper of the winds telling what no one else could say! 4. Vision IV: Illumination Oh father tell me about the sun about the universe and why we did what we have done! Oh father show me the way to go the way to do things right like our people did long time ago! Why do we speak while we have nothing to say? And why do we behave like we were gods, day by day? Reflect what we are relearn to believe what you feel Reject what they preached and return to what's pure and real! I wish you could see that this world is a place of energy! A realm of wisdom, a place of light, a shining fire through the night! 5. Vision V: Starless Nights For years I struggled through starless nights! Sheer endless darkness Sheer endless fights! I've lost my vision! I've lost my way! No colours, no light! Who took the sky away? This journey was a long one without an aim ahead! I found myself down on my knees in conversation with the dead! Begging for an answer to the question of life Begging for pain to prove if I'm dead or still alive! 6. Vision VI: White Forest Soundlessly a shadow lies at my feet A silent companion, the only friend I need At a place like this, concealed and full of strength I wish that you could see what no one can but me! I was given just one second To decide to leave or to stay As this path knows no return So I made my choice and I passed this way With every step Another burden of the past Grew pale, just faded away Released my heart towards the end of the day! It feels like I'm dreaming Like the day conquered the night! Every single stigma Covered in guiltless white. The grey old river congealed in all its dignity Completes this blink of perfection before I find myself ...again! 7. Vision VII: One With The Soil Bleak are the times for the ones lost in darkness Denying the forthcoming fall of the light Cold is the world while our dreams lay in ashes The sun remains a memory in this never-ending night We burned what once was sacred, destroyed the source of our strength We followed a god of destruction spinelessly we marched towards the end! ...towards the end!!! Now that I'm nothing but one with the soil I've no more to offer but blood, sweat and toil Now that I'm trembling down on my knees Remorse is my companion, forgiveness what I need! The voice of nature, as the only irrevocable law, is tired of talking... of screaming (!) for prudence! There is no need for nihilism, no need for insatiable greed! No need to defy forces beyond human mastery! How many must die to slake your thirst of power? The earth, drenched in blood, will soon demand revenge, (so) how many bullets will be enough? 8. Vision VIII: ...Of Ice And Stone [Instrumental]
