Spellbreaker 04:45
Witches and wizards are stalking the night Mystic figures emerging from twilight Deceptive forces beware Crossing the line of danger I am entangled within clouding schemes Infiltrated and followed me into my dreams Night creatures watch out Emerging at midnight Time to lift this ban I will never obey Beware my will to defy Spellbreaker No more disillusions Cloak yourselves in secrecy I will burst my chains And break these spells forever They scheme with witchcraft Coming forth in twilight Time to lift this ban I will never obey Beware my will to defy Spellbreaker

Gypsy Witch 03:52
With a smile she threw the tarot cards away She said better start living for today As she saw the fear of death within my eyes It doesn’t matter one day everyone dies Listen, listen to the gypsy witch Live every day like your last Listen, listen to the gypsy witch And don‘t remember tomorrow Start to move your life off the dime It‘s the never ending wheel of time Listen, listen to the gypsy witch Live every day like your last Listen, listen to the gypsy witch And don‘t remember tomorrow

Riding into the dark forest As he got lost within the covert Admitted by an old hermit The flame must not extinguish The wizard fueled by fire Source of his powers Burn the stable down Extinguish the flame The stable houses a dark horse Whipped and chained to the ground Break the chains, unleash the power It’s time for flight forward Ride with me into the fields Unleash the river The flame is gone Freedom within reach I tell you that we all want to be free I tell you that no one can stop us I tell you that we all want to be free We will fight to claim our lives The way to freedom It’s time to live Our fates entwined The magician’s horse I tell you that we all want to be free I tell you that no one can stop us I tell you that we all want to be free We will fight for our lives

We are possessed by ancient spells Keepers of metal faith Wicked souls gathering Hearth in a dark forest Join the darkest circle Occult and obscure We are possessed by ancient spells Keepers of metal faith Shrines of ancient gods Of idols and heroes We are possessed by ancient spells Keepers of metal faith Common! Tragedy and triumph Evoking the cult We are possessed by ancient spells Keepers of metal faith We are defenders of heavy art Disciples of metal cult We are possessed by ancient spells Keepers of metal faith Possessed Keepers Defenders Disciples Raise your fist! For the metal cult We are possessed by ancient spells Keepers of metal faith We are defenders of heavy art Disciples of metal cult

A helping hand from above Reaching out for a blind man Take me to a leap of faith To yearn for a new horizon Release me from doubt Cleanse me from bile Flames will seal these scars Rays of light cutting through A Sign in the Sky Where the eagles will fly A Sign in the Sky Where the eagles will fly From the bottom of the valley The mountain top is shrouded Believe is what keeps me walking Take a step into the unknown A Sign in the Sky Where the eagles will fly Yeah You grab my hand and take me high As I look up to a sign in the sky On the horizon I see a city of gold Where all the dreams can unfold Only the sky is the limit here There is no power to fear An origin within a flip of a dime The unsung hero of our time Flying like the eagles in the sky As we escape from the devil’s eye Over the mountains far away While the magic is here to stay A sign in the sky Like eagles we will fly

Ars Notoria 06:02
Within decaying ruins I dwell The remnants of my final spell Will I ever redeem myself? Will this nightmare ever end? The book to end all this pain Another point of no return Give me omniscience Ars Notoria Erase the errors of my way Ars Notoria The temptation of power Knowledge of every hour Another chance to do it right? The fire in which I will burn Another step further down? The curse that I will break Give me omniscience Ars Notoria Erase the errors of my way Ars Notoria Teach me the art of Salomon Decloak what the future holds Gain the knowledge of the world Desecrate the grave of Virgil A talisman to behold the power To forge the future to my will „Obsessed to gain control over time He finally found the omniscient book As soon as he opened it nothing was the same anymore Time stood still and both time and space were at his mercy…“ Give me omniscience Ars Notoria Erase the errors of my way Ars Notoria

A thousand images Passing my mind Memories or illusions? Imposters of the same coin Eternity consuming us The ticking clock haunting me The chime of the final hour Where we’ve been Is what we’ll become Time without a purpose The heaviest burden Eternity consuming us The ticking clock haunting me The chime of the final hour Eternally we are drifting The ticking is getting closer Escaping time‘s fangs A futile endeavor Falling off the edge of a rainbow Eternity is my only friend What awaits me at the final end? Or will I infinitely be… Floating through time Loosing my mind Floating through time Nowhere to run We are all slaves to time Grains of sand falling down Drifting through eternity I open my eyes to a sea of stars Ticking like a metronome Fading away into the never As I touch the glaring door My eyes burn from light within

Many winters have passed by now Regrets fill my weary heart with bile The sun left me with clouds and rain My ears forgot the whisper of the wind Hear me, Zagan! Gift me wisdom Save me, Zagan! Enlighten me Lift my soul up into a scarlet sky And finally break this eternal ban Hear me, Zagan! Gift me wisdom Save me, Zagan! Enlighten me
