--- TIME ISN'T HEALING (2016) ---

1. THE MILESTONES OF TIME

Life’s not a game, there are no new findings
It’s insight today, tomorrow it's blindness
Featureless puppets are dancing in the void

People and beasts are struggling and fighting
Mind and the conscious are equal to nothing
Even the strongest empire now can be destroyed

But by the grief you’ll be bypassed
If you are faithful to your past

He’s straight with himself, his land’s in his heart
Neither a hero or judge, nor a god
He’s just a man with the fire in his soul
Life is burning and memory stores
The milestones of time

The borders are blurred – where’s life and where’s dream?
Your foe and your friend are just like the twins
The hope will be melted away like a faint beacon’s light

The seconds have flown like a dark flock of ravens
Days are like stairs of a stairway to heaven
And the string reaching out through the ages and years is your life

But if your roots are in your mind
You’ll be protected by the sky

He’s straight with himself, his land’s in his heart
Neither a hero or judge, nor a god
He’s just a man with the fire in his soul
Life is burning and memory stores
The milestones of time

 

2. THE JERICHO

The time has come and ringing bell wakes elementals
And heaven burns and its scream's making you feel fear
This mighty ancient fort
Now is in flames of war

This city’s stones are stronger than time
These walls will never be overcomed
But foes're on every hand
And legion's their name

Indesructible's the land and so's the heaven's dome
The Citadel among these endless sands is Jericho

Walls of fort are stout
Foe's in siege around
Boiling heat spills from the sky

Death behind is standing
Heat is swaying standards
So six days have passed us by

Brass will flash in sunlight
Trumpet's voice's sо unkind
Human crying reaches the sky

Shaken was the land and then was torn the heaven's dome
The pillar of the smoke was rising where was Jericho

The blood's soaked in the ground and fire has died long time ago
These abandoned ruins earlier were the great Jericho

 

3. FUNERAL FEAST

Hey! Stand still and wait
It's not your land, you are a stranger
For outcasts here’s a danger

War is over for you
And flames filled the night with piteous cry
When was parted the weary sky

There is only dirt
There is only dust
There is only funeral
Feast

The black sky was showering us with the flames
The land was replying with the fire
Not life, only death made its list
And darkness was creeping, and brighter than sunshine
is dawn of the bloody bonfire
And song of the funeral feast

Scream was falling down
Into gray dust so far away
And wicked winds took your faith

All that you trust in,
that you might have is in the grave
And the sky on the top is dark gray

There’s no faith
There’s no pain
There is only funeral
Feast

 

4. TIME ISN'T HEALING

Darkness has made you mindless
Your soul is full of sadness
And life is just a silent movie in your eyes

And burning candles are weeping
You know the time is healing
But now your sweetest dream inevitably dies

And now revive your gladness
Unite your soul's fragments
Try to return this light of life into your eyes

Gloomy night covers
Land with the star dust
Its delicate hands
On shoulders you may feel
And heaps up the ashes
On your disrupt soul
Quietly whispering
"Time isn’t healing"

Cause it just teaches to abide
When sticky fear is in your mind
And shining light in tired eyes is fading

When broken are your worthless dreams
And burned to ashes are the bridges
Time’s gonna let you live inside this pain

Fragments of gladness
Hurt you like razors
For expectations
You’ve prayed kneeling
Wear the sorrow
Mourning and grieving
Leave all your hopes
Time isn’t healing

Spirit of your past
Tortures your soul
With burning fire
Candles are weeping
In ruthless flame
Dreams are disappearing
Only the pain stays
Time isn’t healing

 

5. ACCORDING TO THE ACTS

Sweet poison of the cynic lying bleeds
And kills the freedom of the mind
Let all the mouths your faithless words repeat
Because you've named yourself the God

You'll forget all those people, who helped to ascend
Who set you to a height of your big golden stand
Whom the oath of loyalty've made

You're not the God
You are the man, who's thrown away his honor
You're alone
And for the all your dire sins
You surely must repay
When the last tribunal is done
And then you'll get the pay according to your acts.

You're not afraid of fire of the war
You're not a warrior you don't care
And to the souls of fallen you don't owe
Cause now your reign is everywhere

All who trusted you will go to the heaven's gate
And they'll silently go to meet their fate
In your battle they all will fall dead

You're not the God
You are the man, who's thrown away his honor
You're alone
And for the all your dire sins
You surely must repay
When the last tribunal is done
And then you'll get the pay according to your acts.

 

6. DREAM

In deepest dream I saw the end of the fight
And thrown down were all the swords and the shields
Alarming clang of steel subsided
And now it's silence keeps the whole battlefield

And we looked in the eyes of our old foes
And could see in them only reflections of us
We just had an order - not one step back
But we were so afraid to step forward at last

When echo of the battle fades out
And flames of the funeral pyres die away
We’ll beg to push away the dark cloud
To relieve our souls to the heavens we’ll pray

Here was a ringing of the steel in the ancient times
Land was moaning under the load of a fight
When the harsh and cold metal cut strings of the lives
And how could we believe, that this was totally right

Overgrown with wormwood is the battleground
And the swords in the scabbards are covered with rust
But rebellious souls their rest cannot find
In the ears the pulse of war peals like a blast

When echo of the battle fades out
And flames of the funeral pyres die away
We’ll beg to push away the dark cloud
To relieve our souls to the heavens we’ll pray

Like a misty haze my dream was melted
A new fight will surely begin in this life
And while in blood our hands are painted
Our immortal souls are cursed for all time

 

7. DON'T TRUST THE WORDS

Your soul is like a block of ice, and heart is enveloped by fire
As if a heavy stone is pulling down what once was sacred and desired

Honor and conscience have lost their spark
Dictates greediness to people it's laws
The mercy's light is now covered in dark
And evil grows on the grave of your love

He'd stab you in the back, the one you called a bosom friend
Betrayal is a fate of mates and lovers
No place for simple miracles in cynic cruel world
Don't trust the words

Under the gaze of honest eyes lies vicious face of sin and devil
Behind the veil of a high phrase is hiding cruelty and venom

For some it's feelings, for others - deceit
Don't throw your heart, you can hear this growl
Under the mask of the holy good deeds
Hides a spiteful creature without a soul

She'd hit below the belt, the one you thought was only yours
Betrayal is a fate of mates and lovers
No place for simple miracles in cynic cruel world
Be honest but don't trust the words

He'd stab you in the back, the one you called a bosom friend
Betrayal is a fate of mates and lovers
No place for simple miracles in cynic cruel world
Don't trust the words

 

8. THE TRUTH AND THE LIE

You are from those people, who search the truth,
But all you have found was the pain
Time was still healing, but hurting as well, and
All of your deeds were in vain

Honor was traded for farce and unkindness
Value of conscience is lost
Soul is for sale here just for thirty coins
That long ago were embossed

Here light and dark merged into a rainbow of the shades
And truly boundary between them’s hard to find
And you won’t tell in striking light of dying flames
The truth from the lie

The moment of insight has changed into sorrow
As if by a hand of invisible horror
The shroud covered and put off this smoldering flame

With tracery pattern on your dusty road
The trail disappears in the unknown abroad
Fraudulent idols are ruling in that bloody land

Here light and dark merged into a rainbow of the shades
And truly boundary between them’s hard to find
And you won’t tell in striking light of dying flames
The truth from the lie

Gray haze will cover your weary shoulders
While searching you've wasted your life
Sincere look and veracious speeches
Darkened the lie

Tearing your soul into the smallest pieces
Fighting when no one’s around
You are from people, who look for a grace
But truth is what you have found

Circlet of bloody anguish cracks your head again
Your mind is sorrowful and longs to fly away
And in this cruel world, that’s full of gloom and pain
You look for yourself

Here light and dark merged into a rainbow of the shades
And truly boundary between them’s hard to find
And you won’t tell in striking light of dying flames
The truth from the lie

 

9. THE GRIEF

Alone
Among the empty chilly walls
You prayed to God
He didn't hear you cry

The shade of hope is melting
Just like the passing day
And angels far somewhere
Above the sky

Your soul is longing for the sky
Where there’s no place for sorrow and cry

Sunset
Has painted red the drab of days
And pain has rushed again
Into your soul

There's dust and ash
And there is for you no more place
And in your eyes
The dark fear’s laying low

The grief comes close
And in the wake of it
Will come the souls of those
Who were too late, who failed, who stayed behind

And you still hope
Deep in your mind
That pain eventually will go
But nothing really lasts forever in mankind

Take a step
Out of the door, run through the night
Bring back all that you’ve lost
And find your peace

But your despair
Your weakness and your pain
Is pulling down
Into the deep abyss

The grief comes close
And in the wake of it
Will come the souls of those
Who were too late, who failed, who stayed behind

And you still hope
Deep in your mind
That you are able to break free
But flames in tired eyes are lost and blind

And in the soul is sounding blues of your belief
But mind is covered in a black and gloomy veil of grief

 

10. SOUL IS BURNING

The dawn was bursting bloody red
Light was falling on the tired land
The veil of restless dreams was thrown off
By the anxious sun

Gloomy night suppressed your prayers
This night was extremely scary
Ashes from above were falling
On the open wounds

Now
It’s a lawless time
Inside this fire
Your soul is burning, when you see the bloody flows
It`s not your fight
But deep inside
You hear its call

The brutes are dressed in uniforms
Their mindless fury overflows
The master ordered them to stop
The rebels

He proclaimed himself divine
His rulership’s deprived of mind
He forgot his swear, his soul
Is in the demon’s hands

Now
It’s a lawless time
Inside this fire
Your soul is burning, when you see the bloody flows
It's not your fight
But deep inside
You hear its call

 

11. EAGLE

Magnificence and pride
And power, and serene
And you can feel around
The spark of fairy dream
Will vanish pain and sorrow
And evil sprouts will wilt
When on this world is falling
Black shadow of the eagle

So let me leave the boring land behind
Please, take me to the boundless azure sky

Eagle, teach me how to fly
Take me higher on your wings
Eagle, teach me how to fly
Let me feel the northern wind
Beg you - show me the whole world
From the height of eagle's flight
Take me to my magic dreams
To the blue eternal sky

Cold mighty wind is blowing
And sunshine's in your eyes
And in a bright clear lighting
There’s a majestic sign
Black symbol of the freedom
The ruler of the sky
I wanna have a bit of
That symbol in my heart

So let me leave the boring land behind
Please, take me to the boundless azure sky

In lofty azure heaven are
Silence and repose
With sunshine land is lightened
And wind so gently blows
Have vanished pain and sorrow
And evil sprouts are wilted
When on this world lays down
Black shadow of the eagle

So let me leave the boring land behind
Please, take me to the boundless azure sky

Eagle, teach me how to fly
Take me higher on your wings
Eagle, teach me how to fly
Let me feel the northern wind
Beg you - show me the whole world
From the height of eagle's flight
Take me to my magic dreams
To the blue eternal sky

 

--- FOOL'S PARADISE (2018) ---

1. RAGE

The flames were reaching deep blue skies 
But burning instead of warming 
Behind the scarlet shroud were its eyes 
The song of fate was rolling 

A tired pilgrim with the tortured soul 
Continues fighting cause that is his dole 
The jaded body’s power comes 
From anger, pain and rage 

The heavy burden of the previous battles lies on you 
So easy to throw in the towel disclaiming all you knew

You see your snippy foes 
And it makes you get off your knees 
The rage burns in your heart it seems 
That it will overflow

A tired pilgrim with the tortured soul 
Continues fighting cause that is his dole 
The jaded body’s power comes 
From anger, pain and rage

 

2. COLD RAVINE

This horribly minacious standing still ravine
Is the most cryptic the most gloomy one I’ve seen. 
You’ll see its true face as you unwarily cease 
Its stone-like dreaming which seems calm and full of peace. 

Its icy anger and homicidal cold glance 
Will pierce immediately you and your faith at once. 
Your heart will freeze cause all this horror you can’t stand 
Don't ask for mercy and prepare to die, my friend 

This cold ravine is left by God and Fate. The life 
Of peace has been forgotten by the souls. Your cry 
Of anger will be strangled right in time and then 
You will be just like one of them
Another one that’s still longing to die

Your plan was to dispel the legendary lies. 
“Those superstitions are for silly folks!” – you’ve cried 
The fire of unbelief is burning in your veins 
Come down to this ravine by steps of your own pain 

This cold ravine is left by God and Fate. The life 
Of peace has been forgotten by the souls. Your cry 
Of anger will be strangled right in time and then 
You will be just like one of them
Another one that’s still longing to die

The last year’s frondage covers someone’s rotten corpse 
And soul is stolen by the evil demon force 

The cold ravine’s forgotten for enduring ages 
Be sure, the bright light can’t disturb his peaceful stage 
Meet those poor who’ve searched for peace and haven’t found 
Among the roots of trees somewhere under the ground 
The grave cold enters your innocent heart, and then 
You will be just like one of them

… who’s left by God and Fate. The life 
Of peace has been forgotten by the souls. Your cry 
Of anger will be strangled right in time and then
You will be just like one of them
Another one that’s still longing to die

 

3. FOOL’S PARADISE

Time's old feather
Writes our fate on the life’s yellowed parchment
Time knows better
No time before the Judgement day

Threads of the life developed a web
Generously spilling out the reprises
Now mask is useless and cold wind is blowing
The haze of your old dreams away

Dream will be gone and the pain will return
Cause wounds haven't healed they will just aggrandize
And there is an arrow in my heart
Fool's paradise

Flame of our fate
Will again leave painful burns on your heart
Time will carry
Memories all through the years

Walking blindly towards our dreams
Road is the same, made of poison and dark
Spirit of fate continues to guide us 
To our sorrow,madness and tears

Dream will be gone and the pain will return
Cause wounds haven't healed they will just aggrandize
And there is an arrow in my heart
Fool's paradise

 

4. HEAVEN

We're fed with the gray dusty ashes and with pure lying that we couldn’t trust
We live on the land of false idols, the power of tyrants, the culture of lust
We’re children of this frigging land

Here everyone accepts no laws
Here everyone exalts his flaws
the echo multiplies sad cry
The heartbeat in the chest stays quiet
And only prayer’s on our lips

Heaven save our souls
Sunshine, enlighten our path
Cold wind, destroy all the barriers,
Release our wrath

You should go ahead without a doubt
Cause rising sun starts to fade out
And for your dream you have to fight
Like a bird in northern wind
Dispels the darkness with its wings
If only we would stay in flight

Here is no sun - only a shade
And clear day becomes so grey
Here is the emptiness and gloom
And to avoid the fearful doom
We have the only single way

Heaven save our souls
Sunshine, dispel gloomy night
Cold wind, bring us through the clouds
In the last flight

Around you is bloody feast
Wind blows away black viscous mist
Ash of the wish, dust of the pain
In evil desert you'll remain

Heaven save our souls
Sunshine, dispel gloomy night
God, please, give us strength and courage
For our last flight

 

5. DEFIANT

Hey look – greedy ravens in the sky 
Heralds of the bad 
Up there willful souls go through the fire 
Heaven’s fate is made 
Don’t be afraid of the gods 
Don’t give up your faith in life 
Break the chains and be forever free 
Put the end to this eternal strife 

Honour is your guide 
Leading to the sky 
Near the distant light
You will find your way 
Willful fire of yours 
Shining through the night 
Keeping you alive
Keeping you defiant

You are already used to make your path 
Through the fire and flames 
Your step your every step is followed by 
Struggling and war games 
Let the pain tear you apart 
Cutting you up like a knife 
You know that this is your part 
In this play which is called life 

Honour is your guide 
Leading to the sky 
Near the distant light
You will find your way 
Willful fire of yours 
Shining through the night 
Keeping you alive
Keeping you defiant

Time will wash up your soul
From filth with the fragments of tears
All that is left in your heart 
You’ll carry all through the years

Honour is your guide 
Leading to the sky 
Near the distant light
You will find your way 
Willful fire of yours 
Shining through the night 
Keeping you alive
Keeping you defiant

 

6. SAVIOR

So when the hope begins to fade 
Light of my faith goes out of my sight 
And enemies standing on my way 
Are looking darkly through the night
I squeeze the amulet in my arms 
And world around me starts to fill with light 
So all the foes can do me no harm 
I know the light is on my side 

You are my savior, 
Light of my faith my hope in every, every day 
I wanna feel a bit of your grace 
My dear Lord don’t fade away 
Please do not go out in the dark sky 
My guiding stars! and I proclaim 
Thy kingdom come and hallowed be thy name 

Black velvet of our useless daydreams 
He'll scatter with the heavy mist 
The bliss in your heart he will bring 
The light runs out of his almighty fist 
He won't betray or turn away 
In hour of need he won’t deny 
He won't forget us he will stay 
The grief and troubles then will pass us by 

You are my savior, 
Light of my faith my hope in every, every day 
I wanna feel a bit of your grace 
My dear Lord don’t fade away 
Please do not go out in the dark sky 
My guiding stars! and I proclaim 
Thy kingdom come and hallowed be thy name 

My foe is strong 
With lust his eyes are breathing
And dirty mouth of him is full of lies 
He surely knows
That I’m praying kneeling 
The one who guides me as he’s wise 

Your power will defeat the gloom 
Your hand will cover me from danger 
Your soul will always be my angel 
Cause all my prayers are to you

You are my savior, 
Light of my faith my hope in every, every day 
I wanna feel a bit of your grace 
My dear Lord don’t fade away 
Please do not go out in the dark sky 
My guiding stars! and I proclaim 
Thy kingdom come and hallowed be thy name

 

7. YOUR WORLD

You were creating the new world from dust of your hopes 
Your dreams gave you the power to stay 
Your were still paving your path through the pack of the mopes 
Cause the call’s rising day after day
You got a grip cause you do understand that there’s no
And there will be no easy way out
Your faith is strong, given by gods
Your look is filled up with light

Longing for blessing
Longing for sunshine
Reality's what you try to avoid
But below the line
Constrained with the dark
Your world falls into the void

Red mist is covering your tired eyes
Anguish is pulsing deep in your heart
For the last time you have looked back goodbye
Those are the foes that you can’t outsmart

In the slab mist of necessity
All of your good dreams have drowned
Constrained with the ice of infinity
is your fire of faith on the cold ground
The beacon that gave you the power to stay
Can't be found nowhere around

Longing for blessing
Longing for sunshine
Reality's what you try to avoid
But below the line
Constrained with the dark
Your world falls into the void

Your world's torn apart and your hopes are broken
And in the dull life are completely forgotten
And tired of endless cloud castles and mopes
You've built a good cenotaph for all your hopes

Longing for blessing
Longing for sunshine
Reality's what you try to avoid
But below the line
Constrained with the dark
Your world falls into the void

 

8. AGONY

The morning will wake you; you’ll open your eyes 
And you’ll see there is darkness outside 
As thunder and lightning would tear up your skies 
You will hear the bellmusic might 

The cinder is falling from heaven like snow 
You catch it with your trembling hand 
This fight will be cruel and absurd and you know 
You will fail it in the end

You want to find your faith among the starshine 
To cross the darkness with the mighty bridgeline 
Your iterance of gods names won’t save 
You from the black darknesses veil 
Cause you are alone 
In star casting glow 
Slow poisoning 
Agony

The ground has yawned under crimson blood sky 
The black angel has come for you, man 
To hit you with fireblade to hold your throat tight, 
To clench it with his iron hand 

He watches you mutely while you’re suffering 
His black eyes are so empty, it seems 
The hope lights would fade as your Death would come in 
To take all your innocent dreams

You want to find your faith among the starshine 
To cross the darkness with the mighty bridgeline 
Your iterance of gods names won’t save 
You from the black darknesses veil 
Cause you are alone 
In star casting glow 
Slow poisoning 
Agony

 

9. THE MISTY MOUNTAINS

Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To seek the pale enchanted gold.

The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
While hammers fell like ringing bells
In places deep, where dark things sleep,
In hollow halls beneath the fells.

For ancient king and elvish lord
There many a gleaming golden hoard
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught
To hide in gems on hilt of sword.

On silver necklaces they strung
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon-fire, in twisted wire
They meshed the light of moon and sun.

Goblets they carved there for themselves
And harps of gold; where no man delves
There lay they long, and many a song
Was sung unheard by men or elves.

The pines were roaring on the height,
The winds were moaning in the night.
The fire was red, it flaming spread;
The trees like torches blazed with light,

The bells were ringing in the Dale
And men they looked up with faces pale;
The dragon’s ire more fierce than fire
Laid low their towers and houses frail.

The wind was on the withered heath,
But in the forest stirred no leaf:
There shadows lay be night or day,
And dark things silent crept beneath.

The wind came down from mountains cold,
And like a tide it rolled and roared;
The branches groaned, the forest moaned,
And leaves were laid upon the mould.

The wind went on from West to East ;
All movement in the forest ceased,
But shrill and harsh across the marsh
Its whistling voices were released.

It passed the lonely Mountain bare
And swept above the dragon’s lair :
There black and dark lay boulders stark
Flying smoke was in the air.

The mountain smoked beneath the moon;
The dwarves, they heard the tramp of doom.
They fled their hall to dying fall
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon.

Far over the misty mountains grim
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
We must away, ere break of day,
To win our harps and gold from him!
