Oethon 07:03
OETHON Listen to the lullaby but don’t close your eyes… Another day fades away into the night where the spirits stray Whit out the sun all blend to one a web of shadows are spun Inhale the dark and try to breathe Why is tonight such a dark night, what is it trying to hide Covers me in a dark velvet shroud, leaving all the light out I inhale the dark and try to breathe Let it penetrate my soul Until I take control Inhale the dark and try to breathe Just try to breathe… I inhale the dark and try to breathe Let it saturate my core Until it dwells forevermore Inhale the dark and try to breathe Just try to breathe Don’t close your eyes, just try to breathe…

The Dead 06:08
THE DEAD Someone dies to let live Someone tries to forgive The holy and the cursed The haunted and the blessed The holy soil is trod And all the prayers are said for you While I’m still alive there are words to be said My soul must speak with the dead Mourning is over, the crying is done You don't have to hide behind the bones All the ashes are spread And all the tears are shed... for you Someone dies to let live Someone tries to forgive The holy and the cursed The ones that never left No more unspoken lies, no more to justify No reason to deny I close my eyes, I'm side by side with the ones who died Warm and cold, soul to soul, in between two worlds I have no need to laugh or cry for the ones left behind I have no reason to curse or pray for the ones who passed away But they cannot stay... No more weeping songs, time has come and gone All must be said and done The spirit and soul belongs to the sky Their whisper will never die The sound of the past will always fly Someone dies to let live Someone tries to forgive The holy and the cursed The haunted and the blessed

S. O. Y. (Songs Of Yesterday) The shadows follow me They never seems to disappear I’m the kind of man Who never tried to shed a tear No wasted tears Old sorrow that never dies Old sorrow, the shadows cry never dies

Draugr 04:56
DRAUGR My lonely spirit never rests. I search the ocean air I set my gaze beyond the mist to get a glimpse her I left her crying on the shore in her wedding gown I was lost forevermore the ocean took me down Let me reach for the sky On the other side… If I could close my eyes Lay by her side on the other side But she is sleeping in her grave, peacefully at rest She walked along the righteous pave and dwells among the blessed Maybe somewhere beyond the sea we can reunite Maybe she is waiting somewhere for me, but will I ever see the light Let me reach for the sky On the other side… Let me close my eyes Lay by her side on the other side A shallow hell, a timeless dwell Where time stand still… time won’t kill I’m searching for my innocence… A restless dwell, time stand still I ‘m waiting for deliverance...

DESOLATED SKY When I take a breath and close my eyes It feels like all beauty dies I listen to the empty sky I can hear a distant cry It sounds like lonely cry… so sad It sounds like a lost and lonely cry It's desolated sky, so very sad A desolated sky, so betrayed… When I close my eyes and time is right I reach out for the dying light I listen to the empty sky I can hear the spirits cry… so sad It sounds like a solitary cry I need to feel the warming sun… to brighten upon my face I need the crimson clouds to fill the sky with grace I need the shining stars to reign the empty space It's desolated sky, so very sad A desolated sky, so betrayed… Echoes everywhere When the spirits cry Tension in the air Chaos in the sky... Some say the world will drown in tears Some say it will never die Some say the spirits has disappeared Into the sky In many ways and many times we died And on the way, we lost a lot of glory and a lot of pride

Astral Haze 09:21
ASTRAL HAZE I had to know… I had to follow into the astral blaze I had to go… I had to flow inside the astral haze It's like the stars are feeding me with light And makes my spirit glow inside I had to go beyond the sky I had to go and try Into the burst Reborn in dust Beyond the skies Where oblivion lies I had to go into the stream In craving of the light, I drank the beams I sank it all, it felt so right Swallowed all the light I had to know … I died inside the blaze, the astral blaze I’ll rise inside the haze, the astral haze… Is someone out there on the astral plane We could drift away into the shine Leave the point of no return Feel the blaze and let it burn... I had to know … Into the burst Reborn in dust Beyond the skies We drift into the astral haze
