The battle is lost, but the war will be won 01:34

I watch as the world falls apart, I mourn the chosen path, a gateway into the dark I turn my back to this painful destiny, embed myself in a dream, sheltered from reality

Guardians of the realm 05:35
lyrics

The closure of a chapter, the beginning of a new An eternal struggle, for the chosen few A committment for a lifetime, impossible to return For the greater good, inside a fire burn Fight for the honour There is no redeemer, no saviour to be found, An army of the bravest, by blood forever bound Defy the modern principles, swim against the stream Prepared to sacrifice, to implement the dream Fight for the honour Fight for the glory Guardians of the realm, no surrender, no retreat Watchers of the land, never to accept defeat Dwell in pity, dwell in pain, gather strength and rise up again Guardians of the realm Whatever may be coming, just keep marching on Give in is not an option, this battle must be won The increasing madness, recruits the common man A steady growing tribe, awaits the final stand Fight for the honour Fight for the glory Guardians of the realm, no surrender, no retreat Watchers of the land, never to accept defeat Dwell in pity, dwell in pain, gather streangth and rise up again Guardians of the realm A will to be a servant of light, an urge to do what's right Destined to lead the fallen ones through the night Fight for the glory Guardians of the realm, no surrender, no retreat Watchers of the land, never to accept defeat Dwell in pity, dwell in pain, gather streangth and rise up again Guardians of the realm

The sinners paradise 04:43
lyrics

Believed that truth would be rewarded Obediently followed every rule Raised to be a servant for the reckless Used as the necessary tool Dragged down by the inferior masses A slave to their degenerated needs Suffocating from the endless pressure An infinite void to feed Refuse to succumb to bitterness Keep holding on to a glorious dream A world where the beauty becomes the beast The sane are portrayed as a deadly disease A broken world where right is wrong Embracing the weak and crushing the strong The only place where fools can be wise The sinners paradise Reached the end of a journey Realised it was all in vain Drowning in a flood of equality Fade away or break the chain Refuse to succumb to bitterness Keep holding on to a glorious dream A world where the beauty becomes the beast The sane are portrayed as a deadly disease A broken world where right is wrong Embracing the weak and crushing the strong A world where everything is upside down Beggars and thiefs wear the kingdoms crown A broken world where right is wrong Embracing the weak and crushing the strong The only place where fools can be wise The sinners paradise A world where the beauty becomes the beast The sane are portrayed as a deadly disease A broken world where right is wrong Embracing the weak and crushing the strong A world where everything is upside down Beggars and thiefs wear the kingdoms crown A broken world where right is wrong Embracing the weak and crushing the strong In the sinners paradise, where fools can be wise In the sinners paradise, where fools can be wise

Alone in the crowd 04:43
lyrics

On the outside looking in Watch all the freaks depraved in sin Gently pushed to conform To accept a destructive norm Inside the walls troubles disappear Forbidden to express any sense of fear Never question the obvious lie Play the game as your people die In the darkest hour, wondering, is it worth fighting for the truth On the narrow path feels like no rewards, only privileges to lose Speaking words of wisdom, but noone hears Alone but still standing proud All alone in the crowd Bad conscience haunts the mind Eyes closed, acting like a blind Can´t ignore the nagging pain When serving the devil for personal gain Time for the freaks to conform, Return to a sensible norm In the darkest hour, wondering, is it worth fighting for the truth On the narrow path feels like no rewards, only privileges to lose Speaking words of wisdom, but noone hears Alone but still standing proud All alone in the crowd In the darkest hour, wondering, is it worth fighting for the truth On the narrow path feels like no rewards, only privileges to lose Speaking words of wisdom, but noone hears Alone but still standing proud All alone in the crowd

For victory 04:38
lyrics
buy track
Winds of change blow over our hemisphere A storm to wipe away the poisoned seeds A mighty force determined to not conform An antidote against the devils deeds Ignite the spark, set souls afire Out of the dark, feed mans desire Hypocrites clinging on to a sinking ship Out of touch with a new reality Desperately trying to navigate In a world where the former kings are the enemy Ignite the spark, set souls afire Out of the dark, feed mans desire Rising from the ruins, entering a golden age Hearts set ablaze, for the blood, for the soil, release the rage Renaissance returns, watch the ivory towers burn A hunger to be free, relentlessly for victory The walls of tyranny come crumbling down From the ashes arise an order for the pure Crushing all that´s left of the traitors reign Rebuild the kingdom to last forevermore Evermore Rising from the ruins, entering a golden age Hearts set ablaze, for the blood, for the soil, release the rage Renaissance returns, watch the ivory towers burn A hunger to be free, relentlessly for victory Ignite the spark, set souls afire Out of the dark, feed mans desire Rising from the ruins, entering a golden age Hearts set ablaze, for the blood, for the soil, release the rage Renaissance returns, watch the ivory towers burn A hunger to be free, relentlessly for victory

Time to turn the tide 08:32
lyrics

When the mighty empire fell, a convergence of common tribes The pillars of the ancient world, crumbled before their eyes The moment came to retaliate, take back what once was lost Reclaim the former territories, win the war at all costs Invade, pillage and raid Fearless they spread far and wide, beyond the ancient lands From the mountains in the north to the oceans of sand Fight, victory is in sight No way out, no way back, compelled to attack For the future, for the past, sacrifices to not be the last Bring back our honour, our valour, our pride Wake the spirit to survive, time to turn the tide Unable to withstand the hordes of the enemy Corrputed by the power, a shattered entity Divisive kingdoms collapsed in a moment of conceit Over centuries a lingering retreat Now pushed to the brink of extinction Not by war, but by ignorance to human distinctions Retake, restore The twilight of a thousand years has finally come to an end By the spirits of our fathers, like gods we will ascend The mighty empires about to fall, a convergence of common tribes The pillars of the modern world, will crumble before our eyes Return, come forth Awake, warriors of the north No way out, no way back, compelled to attack For the future, for the past, sacrifices to not be the last Bring back our honour, our valour, our pride Wake the spirit to survive, time to turn the tide
