Army of Gaia

As the chasm grows deeper
We are being thrown into the pit
The indifferent watch with a grin
Their apathy feeds our scars
With weapons in hand
We brave our fears
No border divide us
Army of Gaia
RISE
For justice, for freedom
United we stand
No nation defines us
Army of Gaia rise for our home
With wings from our mothers
Roots from our fathers
We march to our bitter end
Stone cold discrimination
Inequity brews our hatred
Until our final breath
We won’t rest
Warriors of earth
Army of Gaia
Kindred hearts called to arms
Army of Gaia
Rise for our home
Mankind’s conquest upon this earth
Has brought suffering and loss
Actions bereft of thought
Violence beyond reason
Death deprived of justice
For those they will
BURN
Sons of earth and stars
Daughters of moon's shadow
Children of forest and lake
RISE
Army of Gaia
RISE

ΠΥΡ ΑΕΝΑΟΝ
04:29

Hear the ancient spirit’s croon
The call of olden days
Mythos, Epos, Saga
Sign of the olden ways
Hear the wail when shadow falls
The elder poem weaves
Mythos, Epos, Saga
The sound when war begins
So it begins
Pagan tribes
Cities of yore
Words written
In forgotten tongues
Once again upon us
ΠΥΡ ΑΕΝΑΟΝ
Civilization Crumbles
ΠΥΡ ΑΕΝΑΟΝ
Once again in turmoil
ΠΥΡ ΑΕΝΑΟΝ
Legends were forged in fire
On sacred anvil lost in time
Empires rose and fell
Tyrants and kings overthrown
Women and men bled to their deaths
Countless deeds disowned
The statues broken
Dismembered and sundered
Countless names forlorn
The stones tell stories
Of battles and gods
Of valor and ruin
Of freedom and loss
The markings our forefathers left
Bear weight to the heart
In river Acheron they have sailed
To Hades and beyond

At Storm's Edge
06:30
|
|||
As the ocean turns to silent tomb
As life withers
A power has risen
Dryads of the forest
Show me the dance of the Satyrs
Nereids of the sea
Let me hear, the song the whales
Creatures of the earth I summon you
I call the trees to break from earthly binds
I summon the human tribes
To enter the fray
I call upon the storm
From Lethe, from slumber he awakens
From the depths
You are
WE ARE
The wolf that howls
You are
WE ARE
The animal that bleeds
You are
WE ARE
What echoes from below
You are
WE ARE
The thunder in the night
The wind mourns my name
The stars abide by my fate
I AM THE WARCHIEF
The earth shall tremble by my voice
Oreades protectors of mountains
Imbue me with the soul of the hunt
Naiads of the river
Bless me with your fury

Advent Dreams

As he delves underneath
Deep into the burrows
Searching the foundations
To unearth the stones
Discovered the gates
They pose a monumental task
They stand unbreakable
The stone’s marrow becomes apparent
His quest remains futile
As long as the essence
Cannot be acquired
A distant dream
Calls for him
To soar from the deep
A distant dream
Past the echoes of woe
The lack of affinity adorns him
He deems the harvest will never come
His bereavement stemming
From a rooted deprivation
“I’ll find a way, my way
I’ll free myself from this pain”
He grabs his hammer
Devotion in his eyes
He raises his hand
And strikes
The light spreads across the darkened halls
His wings now carry him from shore to shore
The chains are broken, by feathers replaced
A flight across the mountains and waves

Astral Breath
05:18
|

Returning to the otherworld
Many moons have passed
All is different, yet the same
The heralds of ill omens nowhere in sight
None to urge for direction
No false prophets exhorting the journey
Closing the eyes
Fading of mind
The veil gets thinner
Colours in the darkness
Dance of the shade
The breath of life
Astral and divine
Grasping the sense of the sacred way
Through the emanating apparitions
The outlandish and peculiar
Becomes the evident
From the elemental chaos
Sprout the strings of the weave
Shapes move and breathe
Beyond the sphere of perception
To the seeker they unravel
The entrance appears
Amidst the everchanging
Lie unspoken words
Amidst the symphony of radiant forms
Lies boundless and infinite
Another world
Returning from the otherworld
The passage was brief
Nothing is different, yet all have changed

Soulriver
05:41
|

Cursed we who remember
Blessed we who acquire wisdom
We survive every fall
Every unbearable though
You, touched by sorrow and grief
You, who felt the kiss
You, shall find your river
Free from earthly bonds
And the river will flow
To heal as you breathe
And the river will flow
To take and to give
Cursed we who withdraw to dark
Blessed we who forgive in light
Perceive the source of discontent
But frail is the choice
You, who gaze the timeless wheel
You, who never speak of the dream
You, shall find your river
Free from burden untold
When the water stales
When every light fades
Demons lurk in the shadows
Bound to escape
Devouring the untouched
Leaving debris and husks
Cycle of death and rebirth
The sound of the impending torrent
Heralds the nightmare’s end
And the river will flow
Deluge and withdraw
And the river will flow
Submerged below

Starlit Shores
05:53
|

In a moment in time
In the darkest of nights
I saw the starlit sky
Sharing with us its light
Witnessed the constellations
As they constantly shifted
Reflecting on their faces
The stories each one told
From the ashes they rise
From the cold winter nights
Pain is gone
The wounds remain
To remind the sorrow they once felt
Remember the path
On starlit shores
They dance around the fire
In the moonless night
They sing around the fire
Tales of heathen past
They dance around the fire
In the moonless night
They sing around the fire
Tales beyond the stars
In a moment in time
In the darkest of nights
Remember the path
On starlit shores
Forgetting every grief
Every sorrow
Cherishing the moments
They have left
Dawn will come soon
The stars will fade
Into the vast darkness
A moonrise on silver sea
One last song before the end
