AS THE BOAT SAILS THROUGH A RIVER MADE OF SOULS
DON´T EXPECT TO EVER SEE THE SKY AGAIN
I COME TO DIGILIGENTLY TAKE YOU
TO THE GLOOM OF FIRE AND ICE
FIRST STOP: THE BLACK RAINFOREST AND THE SEVEN WALLS
AT THE SECOND THE LUSTFULL ARE INSIDE AN
ETERNAL SWIRL. TRAPPED IN MUD,
THE GLUTTONOUS ARE LASHED BY THE RAIN
BLOOD, FIRE AND DEADS ARE EVERYWHERE, AT THE DARKNESS' REALM
ONLY TWO REMAIN!! X2
KHÂRON IS MY NAME, AND MY MISSION IS TO TAKE YOU TO MY FATHER
THROUGH NINE INFERNAL STOPS,
ONE BY ONE ALL THE SINNERS
DISEMBARK, ONLY TWO REMAIN,
I RECOGNIZE HIS FACE, BUT HE IS NOT HIM (ANYMORE)
MURDERERS, SUICIDAL, RAPISTS AND TRAITORS OF ALL KIND
ARE DELIVERED TO THEIR CORRESPONDING
EXECUTIONER. THE ONLY SOUND
MILLIONS OF SOULS THAT CAN´T BREATH OR DROWN
ONLY TWO REMAIN!! X2
AS THE BOAT SAILS THROUGH A RIVER MADE OF SOULS
DON´T EXPECT TO EVER SEE THE SKY AGAIN
KHÂRON IS MY NAME, AND MY MISSION IS TO TAKE YOU TO MY FATHER
YOU KNOW YOU WEREN´T CHOSEN BY CHANCE, X2
IT IS NO COINCIDENCE THAT BOTH OF YOU STAND HERE AT THE GATES
ONLY TWO REMAIN!! X2
IT IS NOW WHEN WE LOSE TRACK OF WHAT'S HAPPENING
BLOOD, FIRE AND DEADS ARE EVERYWHERE, AT THE DARKNESS' REALM

I was born in a world condemned to destruction
What other end could our race meet?
Since our first breath we’re slaves of needs that were imposed to us
Needs that create frustration
Happiness, such a strange concept
Depending on who and when
From the cradle to the grave
What makes you happy could become
Ashes in your mouth and stabs to your heart
Happiness, such a strange concept
Depending on who and when
When needs were not owners
Of my time nor my energy
So is the pressure coming from our families
Their religions, their lifestyles and moral codes
Imposed on us by inertia (no wrong intended)
But leaving you with a new feeling
Guilt
From the cradle to the grave
Sin and disappointment are the most powerful chains
Created by the gods

There comes a day when you gain consciousness
All that guilt, burden in your back, to limit you
Isolated from said life
To give themselves to the lives designed
By the mind architects
It is then when you look around
And start doubting everything you were taught
How can the world be
Standing on such rotten foundations
Eight billion pathetic beings
In a constant race against
Themselves and their mortal fate
Isolated from said life...
For the wealthy and powerful to step
Upon the already oppressed
Their right, the law of life
Filling people with repressed anger
Unleashing selfishness as a doctrine
And hate for the odd ones
Isolated from said life...
Millions of hungry tears
Dying in the darkness
Of anonymity
A desert of sterile spirits
I hated the world since I met it

Seasons went one after another
As people go by through our lives
Leaving a fragile trail
In our personality until time
It can’t be explained to reason how we feel
That we all come from the same beginning
Our brain, easily mined by the program of our environment
What’s mentally force-fed to us
I searched for the way to open
A window to the world beyond the world
Spiritual Awakening
“Since ancient times, there are rites loaded with mysticism and alchemy,
that enable you to be transported to a threshold of the world beyond the world.”
I saw two beings equally human
I was conscious of their paths and tales
I was conscious of the ones I had been
The ones I would be
I saw two beings with opposite lives
That blended inside my chest
A warm feeling ran through my spine
Senses started to show what’s real
I shall destroy it,
if I cannot change it
The energy that forms us in its divine combination
Withholds an infinite memory of everything we were
The energy that forms us in its divine combination
The instructions manual of my duty in this world (in my case)
I shall destroy it, if I cannot change it
I saw two beings equally human
I was conscious of their paths and tales
The instructions manual
I shall destroy it, if I cannot change it
I shall destroy it

I´M TRAVELING THROUGH DARKNESS
I CAN´T SEE OR HEAR A SINGLE THING
(CONSTANT MOTION)
TRAVELING THROUGH DARKNESS
CONSTANT MOTION AND A SENSE OF PEACE
WHY I HAVEN´T FELT ANYTHING?
NOW I CAN SEE A GHASTLY SIGHT
A CEILING MADE OF STONES MOLDED BY TIME
THE SUN IS NOT ABOVE ME
I CAN´T FEEL THE GROUND CAUSE I´M
DEAD / AND THIS IS HELL
DEAD / I AM DEAD AND THIS IS HELL
DEAD / THE LAST THING I REMEMBER IS THE FIRE
AS A MILLION DAGGERS GOING THROUGH MY HEART
IT KILLS ME TO KNOW THAT I WASTED MY LIFE
IN DEATH WE MISS THE MOMENTS
THAT WHEN WE´RE ALIVE MAKE US WANT TO DIE
I FEEL THE URGE TO MOVE
AND I START TO DESCEND THE BIG SLOPE
THE VISION GROWS IT´S INTENSITY
I CAN SEE HELL CAUSE I´M
DEAD / AND THIS IS HELL
DEAD / I AM DEAD AND THIS IS HELL
DEAD / THE LAST THING I REMEMBER IS THE FIRE
BEFORE I REALIZE,
I´M SURROUNDED BY A DEAD FOREST MADE OF
(ASHES AND STONES)X2
I TRY TO STOP WALKING
BUT I´M NOT MOVING WILLINGLY
(I CAN´T STOP)X2
AMONG THE GREY CONIFERS
I SEE ANODINE FACES
(FACES)
FROZEN IN TIME, ONLY THEIR EYES
ARE MOVING ALL AROUND
I CAN´T HELP TO WORRY
//ABOUT ALL THAT´S LEFT BEHIND// X2
BURNING DOWN THE ORDER
THE LAST THING I REMEMBER X2
BURNING DOWN THE ORDER
AND THIS IS HELL X3
AS A MILLION DAGGERS GOING THROUGH MY HEART
IT KILLS ME TO KNOW THAT I WASTED MY LIFE
IN DEATH WE MISS THE MOMENTS
THAT WHEN WE´RE ALIVE MAKE US WANT TO DIE

In this dark night, he's in front of the flame
His shadow is drawn on the wall.
There's a weapon in his hand,
Fear freezes my blood.
His eyes pierce my soul!!
"Sorry but I can´t forgive you, today is the day set"
The last of his breed
The last child of Gea
The onset of pain
It's the time of fear
Breed
Gea
Pain
Fear
His eyes pierce my soul
Fear freezes my blood
His revenge will overtake, now he's calling to me
No one can stop such hate, I would die for all our sins
"Sorry but I can´t forgive you, today is the day set"
Lobo
The last of his breed
The last child of Gea
The onset of pain
It's the time of fear
Breed
Gea
Pain
Fear
"Seconds thoughts, you still have something to do... You will live, you will know all the truth. You will discover the deception of your people. The secret of Darkness is hidden deeper and deeper"
Anger
Hatred
Why are you fighting alone?
Anger
Hatred
What has happened before?

Every star, dark and luminous
Start their dance and combine in one mist
A majestic being without defined shape or colour
Morphs into a colossal snake
With three heads: bull, man and lion
Begins to answer the prayers
Of those who didn´t hold any hope
Ancient Chaos, both your sentence and your punishment
Have been made against the will of your sons
I´ll use my power over time and matter to revenge our sister, oh father
Titans, all together, with their creations
Light and darkness, day and night, approve rebellion
They begin to answer the prayers
Of those who didn´t hold any hope
Ancient Chaos, both your sentence and your punishment
Have been made against the will of your sons
I will send every new being
To a precise moment in mankind history
They will direct a new destiny
In the heart of humankind
Without any memory of their time in death
With the purpose of letting ´em show their goodness
And this way save their homes and themselves
Ancient Chaos, both your sentence and your punishment
Have been made against the will of your sons
And are a betrayal to the pact
Made with man and Earth
To serve the whisper of a new promise
Memories are sacrificed
Firey sparks and waves of flames and ice
Movement becomes perpetual

Erebo, Nemesis, covered seas and mountains in minutes
Humankind, broke down, started killing each other
Thinking the attack was being made by their own enemies
Wars destroyed as many lives as plagues and famine
They didn´t get to see the world after the cataclysm
Even many of those who stood by the light of the flame
My days (are) coming to an end (in this body)
I managed to save many treasures (not of gold)
But of knowledge, of our past as a race
The poison that filled the air, water and earth
Although transparent, will take long to disappear
Will go on as the wind and rain cover every place
Cleansing with vengeful devastation the prints of the past times x2
Armies rape and kill their kin
Survival doesn´t depend on them
Others in the depths of the hills live
Not knowing all the sadness that floods our lives
Machines haven´t worked for long now (and quite possibly)
All the letters and numbers inside of them (will be lost forever)
The flame written in paper and stone (my legacy)
Will last, is what we were, what we are,
What we will be
Erebo
Nemesis
