The Phoenix Falls

1.
His fire burned through the old worlds
His praise shined over his foemen
And evil seed,
But he missed how the doom unfolds
Upon his greed,
None of his sons saw this omen
2.
It was too late when he perceived
That in the void he's not alone,
That something dwells,
Something that wanted to reave
The fragile shells
Of his mind and his will of stone
Chorus:
We watch
the phoenix fall
From his grace and majesty
We watch
The phoenix fall
His grave and the mankind's fate
Engulfed
By the grim squall
3.
He was chasing pure perfection
Like a moth flying to flames,
Crawling through pain
He approached his damnation,
He fought in vain
To bring glory to his name
Chorus:
We watch
the phoenix fall
From his grace and majesty
We watch
The phoenix fall
His grave and the mankind's fate
Engulfed
By the grim squall

1.
A border so thin
Akin to dragonfly wings
Flies, circles, reflects off the water's
Surface so clean
Until one wrong thought
Not even expressed
Crumbles it all up
2.
Like a divine eye
The reality curtain
Splits apart, absorbs the light
To sharpen its sight
And perceive the soul
of the damned man
With a mind too bright
Chorus:
Don't look where you can't see the sun
Don't go where you can't run
Don't think about conceptions
Beyond your understanding zone
Don't cross the paths
Beyond the known
3.
Its heavy breath howls
Akin to mighty wolf's ghost
Flies, circles, reflects off the mountain's
Surface so foul
Meddles in all minds
Too fragile and poor
To notice vile souls
4.
Like the flames that swarm
The void consumes
All you saw, all you heard and felt
Even your breath
All you savour is dust
Dry, bitter, suffocating
But it tastes like home
Chorus:
Don't look where you can't see the sun
Don't go where you can't run
Don't think about conceptions
Beyond your understanding zone
Don't cross the paths
Beyond the known
Like a gentle breeze
Just before the thunderstorm
The void whispers
'Thank you son, you're with me till the universe freezes'

Hymn of the Warmaster

1.
We emerged from the darkness
From the chaos of eternal night
We left our old doubts
Somewhere far behind
2.
We paid with many lives
But we gave them in the right hands
He brought us victories
Over the hostile lands
3.
He led us through long wars
With his glory as his guide
Wisdom was his power
To end the old divide
4.
We embraced his new vision
To make our bloodline strong,
And to conquer distant stars
We must march along
5.
The paths to eternity
We had to flood in blood
All the unclean species
Have to meet the living god

1.
Since the beginning
I heard it calling
It tried to show me
The new era dawning
So I closed my eyes
To hide in safe lies
2.
I crawled for glory
Like a blind mad man
And opened my way
To purgatory
The price of my trust
Was blood, war and dust
Chorus:
All I wanted
All I looked for
All I craved for
Was the truth
Doesn't matter
If it's so cruel
If it's painful
This universe
Has to see it
Through all those lies
Through illusions
They must see it
3.
This sick illusion,
It was not enough
How could nobody
See this delusion?
I open my eyes
To see through all lies
4.
They thought me insane
And I'd lost my mind
I had to find it,
The reality grain
The price of my right
Was blood, war and blight
Chorus x2
