GORGUTS შეიქმნა 1989 წელს.ბენდს გამოშვებული აქვს 4 სტუდიური ალბომი,და საუკეთესო ავანტ-გარდ დეს მეტალ ბენდად ითვლება.გავლენა იქონია ისეთ ბენდებზე როგორიცაა - "MARTYR" "OBSCURA" "COPROFAGO" "ESQARIAL" და ა.შ. ტექნიკურად ურთულეს მუსიკას უკრავდნენ. ლიდ გიტარისტი ლუკ ლემეი დღეს გორგუტსის ძველ წევრებთან ერთად ბენდ "NEGATIVIA"ში მოღვაწეობს.აგრეთვე ქმნის მოდერნკლასიკურ პროექტებს,რომელიც სრულიად განსხვავებულ გიტარის ჟღერადობას მოითხოვს.
პირველი ალბომი -
Considered Dead 1991 წელს გამოვიდა.მის შექმნაზე გესტ მუსიკოსებად მონაწილეობა მიიღეს ისეთმა მუსიკოსებმა როგორიცაა
CHRIS BARNES რომელმაც ვოკალ პარტიები შეასრულა რამოდენიმე კომპოზიციაში და
JAMES MURPHY (
DEATH OBITUARY DISINCARNATE),სოლოები სიმღერებიდან
STIFF AND COLD,
CONSIDERED DEAD,
DISINCARNATED.
მეორე ალბომი 1993 წელს გამოვიდა რელიზში სახელწოდებით
The Erosion of Sanity.ბევრი ამ ალბომს საუკეთესოდ მიიჩნევს.ლუკი ამ ალბომში პიანო პარტიებსაც ასრულებდა გარდა გიტარისა და ლიდ ვოკალისა.
1998 წლის
OBSCURA,არამარტო ერთერთი საუკეთესო დეს,პროგრესივ დეს ალბომი,არამედ საუკეთესო ავანტ-გარდ დეს ალბომიცაა. ბენდი საკმაოდ მძიმე მოსასმენია.ლირიკა ღრმად ინტელექტუალური.ბენდის დრამერმა - სტივ მაკდონალდმა 2002 წელს სიცოცხლე სუიციდით დაასრულა.ამის შემდგომ ბენდს ალბომი აღარ გამოუშვია.და მუსიკოსებიც სხვადასხვა პროექტებში განაწილდნენ.
იქამდე კი ბენდის ბოლო ალბომი განახლებული ლაინაპით
From Wisdom to Hate ტექნიკურად ყველაზე დახვეწილია.შეხვდებით ისეთ სწიპებს,სოლოებს,რიფებს,რომელსაც ვერცერთ ავანტ გად და პროგრესივ დეს ბენდის მუსიკაში ვერ ნახავთ.
მოკლედ ამ ყველაზე მაგარ ბენდს ერთი მოსმენით შეიძლება ვერ გაუგოთ,მაგრამ სწორედ ამაშია მათი მუსიკის სირთულე.მრავალფეროვნება,ლირიკა,რთულად აღსაქმელი დრამ,გიტარ,ბას პარტიები ბენდის ყველა ალბომს შედევრად აქცევს.დარწმუნდით როგორ ფასდება მათი 98 წლის შედევრი
OBSCURA REWIEVამავე ალბომის სიმღერების ტექსტებს იხილავთ ქვემოთ.ვინც ყურადღებას ამახვილებს ლირიკაზე,მათ ალბათ დააინტერესებთ.გირჩევთ ნებისმიერ ალბომს.ყველა უმაღლესი დონისაა.

01. ...And Then Comes Lividity
[Instrumental]
[b]02. Stiff And Cold
Will I die or survive
From this hell made of ice?
It's up to this mountain to decide
What will happen to my life.
The more I climb
The freezing ice
Intensifies
And paralyze me.
A dreadful avalanche
Behind me
Enslaved to this mountain
I shall be.
Amputate my Chilblains
Handless arm remains.
My frozen body
I behold
Slowly turning
Stiff and cold.
Smell the sweet stench
In wind's blow
Of lost carcasses
In the snow.
03. Disincarnated
Have you ever thought
Where your soul will be
When you'll lie to rot
Die physically.
Being so fascinated
By those mysteries
I've began some weird
Out of my body.
I saw a light
In front of me
It blinked my eyes
Invited me in.
Forever will shine
This tremendous light that drives me blind
When I got behind
Control was no longer mine
Meeting those who dies
Those who've been here before I arrived
I should have stayed behind
Only incarnation can now bring me back
To mankind.
I'm where souls are lost
For eternity
I shall never come back
To reality.
04. Considered Dead
Back in the fourteenth century
When the world was plagued by horrid diseases
Discovered lifeless bodies were buried.
Knowing very little about true symptoms of death
Those who stiffen in the stage of morbidity
Were then considered dead.
Autopsies were unknown at that time
Unconsciousness could have been fatal to your life
Catalepsy, from this plague a lot have died
Ignorance sent to the grave people alive.
There's no way to save yourself from this calamity
Life will be for you a simple memory.
Faint! Now you're paralysed
Catalepsy soon will take your life
Try not to close your eyes
Cause death will be to life a deadly lie.
When you're entombed Within your mind you wait and
pray if you could talk The only things that you would say
"I'm still alive...Please!" "I'm still alive...Don't bury me!"
What a sad way to end a mortal life
But it's better off buried
Than to be embalmed alive.
05. Rottenatomy
I've been lost in a jungle
For an hour and fifteen days
Hopelessly searching for exits
In this lethal maze.
Footsteps I have taken
Each one driving me insane
Always turning in circles
In this hostile jungle.
Having dropped my last piece of food
The most vital thing I never wished to loose
I slipped and found myself in a dark place like hell
At the bottom of a pit where I had fell.
Surrounded by a rancid smell
Of corpses that previously fell
Among bones shredded flesh and crawling maggots
Then I knew that I shall stay there to rot.
Gashes appearing everywhere
Scars I'm wishing in despair
Before maggots devoured my insides
I'll commit myself to suicide.
Above me I heard people talking
Having lost my voice, I was unable to scream
They had a look and saw me lying in my knees
Then went away thinking I was deceased.
Below me no one is talking
If you have your voice, just once you're screaming
Have a fast look before falling on your knees
No hope is left when you are deceased.
06. Bodily Corrupted
While I'm waiting
The rotting process consumes my life
Excruciating suffering
That none can identify.
Agonizing game
Drugs can't numb the pain
Death would be for me
A peaceful recovery.
Severe amputations
To stop the infection
Morbid auscultation
Livid coloration of my skin
Self deterioration
Organic corruption
Innards explorations
Gives no explanation of my disease.
Doctors agree
No recovery
In the morgue, I'll be
left to rest in pieces.
While I'm lying
My coffins cover is closed to eyes
My mangled restful body
No one could identify.
07. Waste Of Mortality
[Instrumental]
08. Drifting Remains
When we left the shore
It was a sunny day
Far from the small and quiet bay.
Lightning struck the sky
Asleep, we were sailing away
I woke up and realized
We were now the ocean's pray
The sky was darkening
As the rain was falling
The waves were striking
As our boat was wrecking.
"God! please protect our lives!"
The storms, just a few had survived.
When I looked around me
Boat remains, I had found
Not too far on the sea
My friend's corpse who had drowned.
When we left the shore
It was a sunny day
Our nice trip turned to gore
Far from the small and quiet bay.
The sun is rising
As the clouds are fading
The waves are settling
As the wreckage is drifting.
09. Hematological Allergy
The liquid of life
That is captive under your skin
Is deeply Infected
And slowly perishes from within.
You're looking at your body
Your skin turns to a morbid color
Suffocates endlessly
For this case you won't find any doctor.
Your veins become dry
And then your organs putrefy
You vomit blood down the floor
To leave your corpse soaked deep in gore.
For you life you pray
Intense cardiac decay
No more human fuel to stay alive
Too lets your insides mortified.
Painful drainage of your body
Without a drip of blood
You will be
Hematological Allergy.
Putrefaction is getting close
Arteries had decomposed
Clotted blood drains from your nose
Rigor mortis takes control.
Hear no more heart beats
Death, you try to defeat
No more oxygen in your cells
Your brain rots inside of it's shell.
T R A C K L I S T
01. With Their Flesh, He'll Create
God itself, for him has always been
A stupid, grotesque person worthless to believe in
With the help of his sick morbidous studies
He denied god's existence with demented theories
He can revive, imortalize
The coldest flesh now dead for a while
Limbs of those forgotten
Structures his creation
Which now awaits
The omnious resurrection
[Lead: Marcoux]
The light of life, through his syringe glows
Soon, in the veinsm the soul will flow
Injections in a body once deceased... Re-animates
The flesh-made puzzle soon will start to breathe
Regenerate
Removing stiffness in every limb
Metabolism of life has started from within
[Lead: Lemay]
Terrified, he beholds
The rise of his creation
Guided by an artificial soul
Zombified, uncontrolled
With their flesh, he'll create...
With their flesh, he'll create...
Remnants of the dead
Structured his creation
Which has failed
The omnious resurrection
02. Condemned To Obscurity
The bright light of day
You'll no longer see
In a blind dimension
Henceforward you'll be
A burying in darkness, you will have to bear
Deep, you're drowned, in this optical nightmare
In vortex, your visions collapse instantly
Now your life is condemned to obscurity
Condemned to obscurity
Of your eyes you are deprived
Now touch what you would've seen
Like if you still had those eyes [x2]
Lost in this void of light
There is nothing to see, everything to feel
With no more sense of sight
There is nothing to see, everything to fear
In the gloomy vault of nothingness
My imagination will agonize
Suffering of a psychic blindness
Nothing is all I recognize
In a blind dimension, henceforward you'll be
Buried in darkness and obscurity
Where visions in vortex collapse endlessly
For life, you are condemned to obscurity
Lost in this void of light
There is nothing to see, everything to feel
With no more sense of sight
There is nothing to see, everything to fear
03. The Erosion Of Sanity
Man's sanity has not provided
For an imminent derangement
Life won't be able to handle
The psychological sickness
Encephalitis' treatments are unknown
In a perpetual sleep, they're swallowed
A decrease in all capacities
Mentally you're becoming obsolete
Infection in your brain, it creates
A slumber that no one can awake
Nailed in your chair, you're living dismally
[Lead: Lemay]
Sudden rise of lucidity
Your wretched life is complete
As before, now you can see
Walk and talk normally
How long will i be
Saved from my disease?
[Lead: Marcoux]
Unexpected relapse into sickness
Brought you back to an everlasting sleep
[Lead: Lemay, Marcoux]
Back in your chair, you're living dismally
04. Orphans Of Sickness
In the tombs of pain and innocence
Forever were buried
Souls of those who've never asked to be
Scornfully immolated
The art of transplantation
Has saved a lot of lives
By frauding a child's adoption
I will be saving mine
[Lead: Lemay]
In the name of science
They've claimed being our saviors
Money is what keeps busy
These medical butchers
Soiled with blood all over their hands
They've just killed for a cuople of grand
Orphans of sickness were put to rest
Miserable adoption has torn their souls to shreds
Orphans of sickness now dwell in death
With nice tags on their organs, their existence will end
[Lead: Lemay]
Children were dissected
By those sick, demented
In the tombs of pain and innocence
Forever were buried
Souls of those who've never asked to be
Scornfully immolated
To achieve my transplantation
I stole a lot of lives
Through the kindness of adoption
All those lives are now mine
Orphans of sickness were put to rest
Miserable adoption has torn their souls to shreds
Orphans of sickness now dwell in death
With nice tags on their organs, their existence will end
05. Hideous Infirmity
Suddenly facial remains everywhere
Perpetual disfigurement that I'll have to bear
My hideous infirmity
Brings disgust to their faces
Destined to have a mask
Stuck on my face forever
Unconscious, here I lie
As I'm waiting my demise
The only thing that I had in my mind
Was to leave this world for a better life
But I never thought I would fail
My inflicted homicide
Grafting and countless surgeries
Just can't embellish my monstrosity
[Lead: Lemay]
Grafting and countless surgeries
Just can't embellish my monstrosity
[Lead: Marcoux]
Gruesome scars on my face
Which will never be erased
Having lived with this pain in mind
Make me see this world through a different eye
But it's up to them to change
Their biases inside
When I came near losing my own life
It made me learn the true meaning of a smile
My hideous infirmity
Brings disgust to their faces
Destined to have a mask
Stuck on my face forever
06. A Path Beyond Premonition
A way to travel
Discover and explore
Through man's anterior lives
To learn unspokenlores
Regression of the mind
Can't make it possible
To bring back existence
Where you had once dwelled before
Dormant souls... Resurrected
A brain transfer
From a sick man to a fresh cadaver
Prolongs the phases
To scan beyond his alzheimer
A rediscovery
Of lives which were forsaken
Avoid the frips of mortality
From the end life begins
Awakening of previous entities... Gensesis origins
Once revived
The brain functions would all deteriorate
His mental and physical
No longer would respond
When they split his skull apart
His brain and soul was gonl... Mysteriously
A way to travel
Discover and explore
Through man's anterior lives
To learn unspokenlores
Regression of the mind
Can't make it possible
To bring back existence
Where you had once dwelled before
Mortal fool.. mutilated
[Solo: Lemay. Marcoux, Lemay, Marcoux]
07. Odors Of Existence
Since the earth was devestated
I alone, got isolated
Where daylight can't penetrate
Trapped beneath remains, I wait
Crawling survivors
Are screaming for life on their knees
Soon to be discovered
Stench-filled carcasses underneath
For such a long time
I've been trapped
So I can't tell if it's day or night
If only my cries
Could reach the surface
Inhabitated by mankind
They're searching for lives
Deception prevails, more corpses are piled
If they run out of time
Nothing more than shreds of carrion they'll find
Odors of existence
[Lead: Marcoux, Lemay]
If you smell the odours
To a rotted death it will lead
But among these odours
I'm still undiscovered beneath
08. Dormant Misery
Deep inside
Beyond all conceptions
Unconsciousness hides
A comatose existence
As your mind falls asleep
A second life is awakening
Far beyond imagination
The world of dream is where...
Your second soul will perish... Endlessly
Lands which no one's seen before... Dark as hell
There, alone, you are in this vault of fear
In imagination, time does not exist
'Till the end you'll bear this dormant misery
This dormant misery
[Lead: Lemay]
As you were opening your eyes
Your soul reinstates in consciousness
Reinstates in consciousness
Once the shades of reality disappear
In the shades of mortality they reappear
Far beyond
Dark imagination
Unconsciousness hides
A comatose existence
[Lead: Marcoux]
Next time when you fall asleep in your bed
Stiff and cold you'll be... dreaming with the dead
T R A C K L I S T
01. Obscura
Clouded by the bliss obscura
Covered by the frame of drama
Intra limpidus obscura
Limen ex nihilum...Opacitas
Trux omnillustrare...
Ex regnum de exsanguis
Lux absentia, funditus
Silenced, fragments of nostalgia
Laments, frailty of the mind
Bounded by the abyssal fence
Light cleanses the internal sense
Obscure feeling of immensity
Black Opera, unio-mystica
Vibrate, filter of emotions
Filtrate, shapeless screen unfold
Reverie, climate of energy
Blackness, centre of whiteness
Intra limpidus obscura
Limen ex nihilum...Opacitas
Trux omnillustrare...
Ex regnum de exsanguis
Lux absentia, funditus
02. Earthly Love
Flesh the feeble flesh confines the pain and soul
Vault in which, the earthly way, i bear
Earth Love my denial
Tears as a gift upon my mirror
Bright...the pureness of the unperpetual
The meaningless heat of flesh, I ignore
Reflection of betrayal
Fear as a gift, a creeping splendour
Flows of ecstasies within the succubus
The carnal healings of the soul
Earthly form of illusion
Flesh, my desires a living radiance
Must of ecstasies the mankind's incubus
The carnal addictions of the soul
Concrete form of sorrow
Impure malignant indignation
In my dreams, earthly love seems so bright
I my nights, earthly love I deny
Earthly love...carnal bliss
Which I'll have inside of me until my end.
[repeat 1st verse]
Earthly love...carnal bliss
Which I'll have inside of me till my end.
03. The Carnal State
Once my earthly pass
Over and stuck in the past
I will become one with the ground
Dust, I'll be
For those who've seen my earthly pass
Taking place in the past
Coldness will lead to emptiness
Free I'll be from this carnal state.
The stench of mediocrity soars
Once tangible vanish
The lucid pure calmness of ecstasy
The carnal state, my only grief
The carnal state
Entrenched in the logical
Carnal state
The epitome of a comfortless epoch
Transcend
Dreamless in this mind of flesh
Mind of flesh
The fragments of a worthless epoch
Collapse
The stench of mediocrity soars
Once tangible vanish
The lucid pure calmness of ecstasy
The carnal state, my only grief
04. Nostalgia
Latest being drowned
In fictive degradation
Coming depression revolved
Around an Earth
Nostalgia excludes the whole
As spleen takes over me
Resound, the echoes of my threnodies
And then the fact of being
Has no longer meaning
The hymns of light
They'll sing once I'll be gone
Reverie appears cause
Existence collapse
Nostalgia
Sadness shall obnuilate
Sadness, feels, the desolated
Desperately lost within
Lament, pain and misery
The more lies burden lives,
The more I am dying
The realm of light
I'll reach once I'll...
Latest feeling drowned
In lucid contradiction
Coming relation revolved
Around a heart
Nostalgia excludes the whole
[repeat 3rd and 4th verses]
05. The Art Of Sombre Ecstasy
Build the passage way through the art
A sombre decay, a collection of mind
A collection of mind
Once life fades to shapeless
As a light
Through this path of pureness
Now I rise
Death-Like trance, pure freedom
I shall seek
From the inner, the outer, I shall reach
Suksma Sharira
Born in black, within
Death is white, within
Creep is bright consciousness without mind
A sombre delight, a repulsion of mind
A repulsion of mind
Once life fades to shapeless
As a light
Earthly lies and sadness
I deny
06. Clouded
Sad version of abject life
Enlighment feeds my decay
Sombre proper to ecstasy
Bring this dark day of frenzy
Shame while I fly high
Incite tears to my eyes
Hopeless mind...Pain Life creates
Above the skies of sorrow, I'm...
Crawling..Crawling on the darkened shore
Seas of despair saturate my soul
Rising..Rising from this clouded land
Life of despair shall forsake my soul
Hopeless mind...Pain life creates
Above the skies of sorrow, I elevate
Shame while I fly high
Incite tears to my eyes
Fading..Fading from the mortal ground
Sad version of grievous soul
Shame while I fly high
Incite teras to my eyes
Hopeless mind...Pain it creates
Above the skies of sorrow, I elevate
07. Subtle Body
Volatile incarnation in tangible
Ghostly shades aerate
In the air, penetrates
Transparent fleshless beings cast in tangible
Mortal eye horrified by this spectral light
Enhance, Enhance
Cloudy, obscure conception
Floating, Floating
Unspeakable perception
Volatile infiltration in visible
Beyond sight and demise
Shall transcend darkened minds
Existence, being transposed to invisible
Terms of life, once arrived, I will
Bring your spectral flight
Sweet silence
Crawling animation
Sweet serenity
Unearthly variation
Embrace, embrace
Futile fascination
The flight enhance
Increasing perversion
Volatile incarnation in tangible
Beyond sight and demise
Have trancend, Darkened minds
Transparent fleshless beings cast in tangible
Terms of life, now arrived,
Brought your spectral flight
08. Rapturous Grief
Dead with pride
Hopelessness behind...I ascent
Feeble minds
Regret in their eyes...They repent
Inner horizon
I glorify my death in peaceful solitude
Obscure concept of blissful imagery
Rapturous Grief
AS my soul rises Transparency, I reach...
far from this world, I'll be
Lost within darkness
Timeless dormancy is
where now I shall dwell
Cast beyond mortals
The faceless ones, I meet
The faceless ones are cleansing me
Grotesque earthly love behind
I leave the sun behind
Splendid fluid transparency ashore
Within darkness, I dwell
The carnal state, I escape
Life is now a part of past extracted from me
The carnal state I forsake
Death is now a part that
Last longer than life and its misery
Mindless soul
Pure consciousness
My internal dream was my eternal fear
[repeat 1st verse]
09. La Vie Est Prelude
The incoherent system of life
Structured in my self dark ideology
"But why am I sombre with pride?"
It may be a prelude to a symphony
Through this prelude Carnal Confinement
Anguish was my closer friend
Once into the world of breathingless
I'll be glad to meet my end
My flesh, I overwhelm
As I rise in ecstasy
Proceed into the realm
Of blissful immortality
Winds of pureness I inhale
How can they love this life so miserable?
I neglect my being
How can they trust this God so feeble?
The inner belief now I deny
I structured in myself my proper entity
Inner-prelude increases my will to fly
Sounds of Blackness, my energy
Through this prelude Carnal Confinement
Anguish was my closer friend
Once into the world of breathingless
I'll be glad to meet my end
10. Illuminatus
Consistence of dreams
Sweet liquid illuminates
Illuminatus...Soul's Arsis
Consistence of souls,
Nothingness in emptiness
Enobscuratus...Flesh's Thesis
Lake of flameless thoughts,
A lucid crisis
Cogitabundus...Stillness of mind
Inner-circle rises,
Sentiments are fine
Nihiluminatus...
Life mystified through blissful light...Rise
Heresy and Heretic contemplation
Life purified earthly mind...Dies
Abashed and aghast rebellion
Sensitive Aura, peaceful Requiem
Illuminatus...Soul's Arsis
Translucid dogma, peaceful condolences
Enobscuratus...Flesh's Thesis
Life mystified through blissful light...Rise
Heresy and Heretic contemplation
Life purified earthly mind...Dies
Abashed and aghast rebellion
A Chrome existence, insipid pertinence
Cogitabundus...Stillness of mind
Confirm ecstasy, Blissfully
Nihiluminus...
11. Faceless Ones
The granted land forsaken,
I cross the threshold of the faceless ones
Lost in the twilight, confinement in emptiness
The granted flesh abandoned
I shall reborn as a faceless one
Darkly, splendid world, confinement in rapture
Unbearable pain I share
My carnal past I deny
Timeless life They share
A rebirth through demise
Fearless to the grave
It brought me to a new level
Instead of crying the dead
I see further in the cyclone's eye
Lost in the twilight
Confinement in emptiness
The granted land forsaken
I cross the threshold of the faceless ones
Darkly, splendid world
Confinement in rapture
The granted flesh abandoned
I shall reborn as a faceless one
12. Sweet Silence
[Instrumental]
T R A C K L I S T
01. Inverted
Music & lyrics by Luc Lemay
Truth before your eyes
Sheltered you in lies
Through the cross, you'll find
The peacefullness once promised
Flesh denied for life
By using Christ as an acolyte
Enrolled in reclusion
Serinity will be just illusion
Upright you praise the serpent
To God, you claimed being a servant
Through sin, within you hold
Your feebleness and filthy soul
Why preaching about love and hate
When blindness enlighten your own faith
Inverted behavior
Integrety is the only saviour
Deep, is, your devotion
For the lefthand side
Peace, you connot give
To the confessed ones
False, is, your compassion
For the crucified
In which your trueself
Will persist to hide
Truth before your eyes
Sheltered you in lies
Through the cross, you'll find
The peacefullness once promised
Flesh denied for life
By using Christ as an acolyte
Enrolled in reclusion
Serinity will be just illusion
02. Behave Through Mythos
Music by Steve Cloutier
Lyrics by Luc Lemay
Once upon history
Man created his own dieties
Trust in divinities
Kept enlightenment upon mysteries
Behave through mythos
Fictive idolatry
Faith and praise for those still left unseen
Searching veracity
Myths dominate prophetically
Behave through mythos
Mortal perplexity
Mind emprisoned in credulity
Mental intricacy
Truth being revealed through fake entities
Behave through mythos
Pure rationality
Man's self-edified supremacy
Senseless reality
Mind-constructed tales praised slavishly
Behave through mythos
Fictive idolatry
Man's self-edified supremacy
Searching veracity
Truth being revealed through fake entities
Chaotic nought
Reigns silently
Upon an-ki
Chaos being solved
As mortal kneels
Light shall be brought...thy mighty beings
03. From Wisdom To Hate
Music by Steve Cloutier, Dan Mongrain
Lyrics by Luc Lemay
Charriot traces carved in sand
Once more, pain, will expand my land
Each arrow thrown
Strengthen my throne
Bounds to my realm, the sword shall set
My blade was the one that you've last met
With red-stained hands,
The victor stands
From wisdom to hate
From wisdom to hate
Intrude my peace...war, I'll proclaim
Your empty skull will be my gain
I will, with greed
Watch yourself bleed
With envious eyes, on me you've sined
Each place I pass are left to ruins
On your decline
My reign will shine
From wisdom to hate
From wisdom to hate
I am the one which none defies
Warfare and I are unified
Wisdom collapse
Hatred soon will rise
Charriot traces carved in sand
Once more, pain, will expand my land
Each arrow thrown
Strengthen my throne
Bounds to my realm, the sword shall set
My blade was the one that you've last met
With red-stained hands,
The victor stands
I am the one which none defies
Warfare and I are unified
04. The Quest For Equilibrium
Music & lyrics by Luc Lemay
Gain through terror
Maintained the growth of my empire
Pain caused by anger
Maintained the fall of their empires
Blinding, is, my crown
Fearless, is, my throne
Your land... I will make my own
"Hail, my master"
Shall be the words spoken in my honor
Curse of the conqueror
Besieges your soul as you surrender
Shadows of my hand
Darkness on your land
Forever and now
You shall kneel and bow to me... slavishly
Bitter is your defeat
Treasures at my feet
Your wealth... I behold, with greed
Gain through terror
Maintained the growth of my empire
Pain caused by anger
Maintained the fall of their empires
Shadows of my hand
Darkness on your land
Forever and now
You shall kneel and bow to me... slavishly
05. Unearthing The Past
Music by Dan Mongrain
Lyrics by Luc Lemay
Relics captured in stratas
For millennia, have been sleeping
Secrets of buried scriptures
Are whispered through the sound of wind
Kingdoms or dormant splendors
For millenia, have been sinking
Speaches of buried surfaces
Are roaming through the seas of sand
Realms, once back to light
Archa-speaches are told
Realms brought back to sight
Archapolis beholded
Rising the fragments
Signs of previous lives
Told to the present
Lores of ancient times
Unspeakable beauties
Ruins of fabled places
Soiled testimonies
Of ancestor races
Relics captured in stratas
For ages, have been hidding
Echoes from a lost era
Can be heard through the sounds of wind
Kingdoms of radiant slendors
For ages, have been shining
Conquest of the conquerors
Are covered by the seas of sand
Unearthing the past
Knowledge...concealed
To the unborn one
06. Elusive Treasures
Music by Steve Cloutier, Dan Mongrain
Lyrics by Luc Lemay
Cursed by nature
Hence sea confines...mystifies
Haunting the mortal mind
Since the mist of time
As a myth, it had survived
Praised, was, their knowledge
Beyond it's shores... idolized
Their kingdom's splendid sites reigned high
As perfection of mankind
Drowned, entirely
Within one night
Swallowed, was, their empire
In the mist of time
Dreadful floods, none had survived
The mighty Sola Terra
Forever, fell asleep
Mysterious sinking drama
Lost in Daedalian deeps
The mystic Sola Terra
Forever, shall exist
Within the grips of ocean
Lost in abyssal mist
Cursed by nature
Hence sea confines...mystifies
Haunting the mortal mind
Since the mist of time
As a myth, it had survived
Drowned, entirely
Within one night
Swallowed, was, their empire
In the mist of time
Dreadful floods, none had survived
The mighty Sola Terra
Forever, fell asleep
Mysterious sinking drama
Lost in Daedalian deeps
The mystic Sola Terra
Forever, shall exist
Within the grips of ocean
Lost in abyssal mist
07. Das Martyrium Des...
Music by Luc Lemay, Dan Mongrain
Lyrics by Luc Lemay
Disentanglement from flesh's captivity
Freedom's lair, soon, I will reach
Unlock the ultimate gate to perpetuity
Mortal's lair, soon, I will leave
Disembodiement from tangibility
Immortal, soon, I will be
Fearless, I cross the gate to pure eternity
Blinding light, soon, I will see
Lucid pain
Brings the gift
From this earth
I shall drift
Tied ...facing the archers
Pierced ...bleed with rapture
Rise ...towards slendors
Feel ...divine grandeurs
Disentanglement from flesh's captivity
Freedom's lair, soon, I will reach
Unlock the ultimate gate to perpetuity
Mortal's lair, soon, I will leave
Tied ...facing the archers
Pierced ...bleed with rapture
