Alexandria 05:16
Alexandria --------------- Weavers of fate Spin the thread of life Together they sing Of things that have been That which is now and yet to come Daughters of night Bring oblivion The triumph of death Comes the black fury Slits the thin spun life and beckons your doom Firestorm rages Pillars of smoke Arise from the sea Infernal flames Burning ships set The skies alight This city once so great Now suffocates engulfed in flames Desperate cries The great fire starts closing in The angel of darkness Brings fire and death with the night Storm clouds gather As hell is unleashed Under his wings You start to run As the world burns around you There’s no escape Moirai decided your fate Alexandria sleeps Blackened, covered in ash It’s glory forgotten Lost forever in time

The glowing iron pierces my eyes My screams drowned in a choir of pain Deep down dreaming in darkness No end to my nightmare, I am condemned Dead on our feet and starving We march back to our land Wailing with hands raised to the skies Cursed by the tyrant Chorus: We are the army of the blind Five score led by the one Crippled, broken, we all stand Defeated army in front of our king Pale faced, staring in horror Soon he will follow us in death Chorus: We are the army of the blind Five score led by the one Now you will take one final look Scream to the skies Driven to madness By the army of the blind Chorus: We are the army of the blind Five score led by the one

Ragged raven-like figures Scouring the fields Searching for the dead Half-buried in the frozen ground Chorus: Now close your eyes And listen in despair With every black breath Your flesh condemned The stench of blackened skin Living corpses retching bile Huddling close to the fire pits Praying for escape in death The skies have all turned grey Behind the fog the sunlight withers The ungodly disease is spreading With every black breath Chorus: Now close your eyes And listen in despair With every black breath Your flesh condemned Now close your eyes And listen in despair To the dying, agonizing wails Of the end of humankind

he Golden Horn lies open With the north wind we sail Soldiers of perdition We shall drive the traitors out The feared Varangians Soldiers of the imperial guard Surrounded, outnumbered Prepare make their final stand O City, consumed by fire Thou hast drunk at the hand... of the Lord The cup of His fury Chorus: Blood upon the sacred stones. Carrying the work of darkness We shall melt the altars for their silver Burn down the holy books And desecrate the Hagia Sophia Chorus: Blood upon the sacred stones. The killing lasts three days and nights Our swords drip with Christian blood Now we drink the deep red wine As the whore sings, sat upon the patriarchal throne Chorus: Blood upon the sacred stones.

To Vindland 04:49
In this freezing day, on the battlefield, there they stand so still, in their dying time. Feeling no remorse of the clash they fought, awaiting the Valkyries to send them to Valhalla. To Vindland they sailed! To Glory and Death! Valhalla awaits them! Vikings on raid! Odin's eye is on them they know it is true in these forests so strange on this distant west land They came as raiders and *they* found wild men with weird clothes and faces wielding bow and short axe To Vindland they sailed! To Glory and Death! Valhalla awaits them! Vikings on raid! The Vikings cried out loud to call the strength of Thor and with the fire of war bursting through their veins hacked and slashed enemies almost won the battle but they were so few brave as hell but outnumbered So they lost and died but with honor and pride They won their place in Valhalla on the shores of Vindland! To Vindland they sailed! To Glory and Death! Valhalla awaits them! Vikings on raid!

Ninlil 04:59
Beckon the great watcher down from the sky Behold behold Ninlil Fertile in the breeze We call upon your gift Do not fight the wind Let it fill the room Herald death and moon We lamenters lay in line Summoning the air in coils May the waters carry us beyond Our great goddess Ninlil Who spat out death bringer and their caretaker Who spawned the great body and waters under its sway The words come alive in space Refreshing and choking they swirl Carried from our feet in solemn rapture Our song is echoing loud Violent concussive blasts She answers now our call

Bushido 03:13
Autumn wind of eve, blow away the clouds that mass over the moon's pure light and the mists that cloud our mind, do thou sweep away as well. Now we disappear, well, what must we think of it? From the sky we came. Now we may go back again. That's at least one point of view. Could not return, I presume, So I will keep my name Among those who are dead with bows. My life came like dew disappears like dew. All of Naniwa is dream after dream.

about

Historian Sofia, Bulgaria
