The Eternal Soul
Oh, yes, 'bout this we all agree, It wasn't just a little apple, Even if we picked it from a tree. Really, was a solemn pact made That we weren't able to keep, A matter of betrayed faith. Hear God's voice! Fear his rage! Any fruit was ours, all the wealth, Except for the one forbidden: Peace, silence, eternal health. "Take it" slowly hissed the snake, "It's so juicy, why exitate? He just fears your race to wake!" Respect the pact! Knowledge we wanted a and full knowledge we've gotten Of the bad things on Earth not one we've forgotten. Now that we know hunger, cold, pain and neglect, Still hopeless hopes are left. Fast are passing by the years in this harsh land Aches the back under the farm work, bleed the hands. Now that we know hunger, cold, pain and neglect, Still hopeless hopes are left. Her beauty is fading away, but not her smile Weakness helps a new wisdom to grow deep inside. Short life of pain, just one regret, The shame of a promise unkept. Pain is needed Pleasure to feel, Hate is required Love to believe. Oh, Eve is aging, but not for my eyes! God still waits us, Keeps the garden, Where one day our Children will play. Oh, Eve is aging, but so isn't our love! And if I look into her eyes untouched by time, I still see memories of a lost paradise. Now that we know hunger, cold, pain and neglect, Still hopeless hopes are left. Short life of pain, just one regret, The shame of a promise unkept.

My little lady, in your dark eyes There is the key, But I've been around too long To still be able to see. Soon the night will take back another day, Where is my time running away? I had a cloak The day I came here. It wasn't a great thing, old, worn and dirty too. But full of memories, yes, And lots of dreams. It just got lost a day in Spring, It simply vanished in the morning mist. I had a crown The day I came here, I had power and glory If I am not wrong Soon the night will take back another day, Where is my time running away? I wonder how many things I've lost in these years. Forgotten, abandoned, betrayed, Or simply left behind. Springs, Summers, nights and days, Give me back another chance, I would love to waste it too. My little lady, in your dark eyes There is the key, But I've been around too long To still be able to see.

Hard Biante hammered the chisel Hard beating the rock Of the Seven he was the wisest one He fixed his loneliness in the stone. I was walking the ruins of Greece, Some centuries gone, Young and strong, can this be a fault? I read the word, they got my heart. CHORUS The most part of the men are bad So he wrote that day Lonely I crossed life, Stealing love from women, careful not to trust a man Every thing I said, nothing but a lie. Always those words Bouncing in my mind: "Most of the men are bad" CHORUS So he wrote that day But youth goes away little remains of The pride of man. Sink in deep water, One offered a hand. There was no time to think I grabbed it and prayed. It was very simple, Nothing really to say. CHORUS Wise is the man who doesn't trust But clever the one who's got a friend.

I have memories, Not so much more, the hills of Avalon Places, people, voices, And blood on my hands. Someone has said that they were heroes, So many songs have been Written 'bout them. But they were just brothers to me, together we defended our right to be. Yes, the Saxons were invaders, But I wonder sometimes, When the shadows grow longer, Who decides our roles in this game. Just one thing I'll never forget, Guinevere's beauty, Her painful betrayal. But maybe is my age Or the time passed by I can't hate anymore, I just wonder why. Tomorrow will be my last war, my own son against me The old mage said I cannot die, but mages are just words and lie. Solo guitar Tomorrow will be my last war, my own son against me I wish I could run away, I wish I could lie and sleep. Just one thing I'll never forget, Guinevere's beauty, Her painful betrayal. But maybe is my age Or the time passed by I can't hate anymore I just wonder why.

Grows the mist from Gougane Barra My steps are silent, my heart is heavy Water like a mirror of a restless sky Kings and knights, have passed from here Dirty and savage, noble and brave. Where is the dust That was theirs bones? Where are the voices Lost and gone? Scholars and saints Have walked here Searching for peace Between the wind and rain. Where is the memory Of their lonely thoughs? Where is the book That noone ever wrote? No one remembers the names anymore No one can read the stones. They just lay Dreaming of the sun Keeping poor memories Of hunger and pain. Water like a mirror of a restless sky Wind murmuring of forgotten days An old woman Used to bring the flowers But now she's gone Somewhere in the rain and now, The little graveyard Enjoys the deepest peace But for the rabbits That jump between the trees This is the country Where grass is always green When the rocks and men are shaped by wind and waves. Sitting on the cliff You will feel the pain Standing like the stones Between wind and rain. Water like a mirror of a restless sky Wind murmuring of forgotten days.

Walking through burning Babylon, The mighty walls Slaughtered for my own glory Soldiers raiding open temples. I am the conqueror, emperor and king, hand of destiny, Will of the gods, famine everywhere Fire, death and screams. Corpses laying on the roads, throughout the city With The marble bodies of their fallen gods. My glorious army, that cannot loose, will bring my name On any road, in any house where there is still gold to steal. HARD Oh great king Master of justice The rebel city Has finally been freed. Their blasphemed lord Hides in the desert, Tonight you'll have His head on a pike for you. CHORUS Burns Babylon For the greed of a man Burns Babylon For the sins of a man HARD Beautiful girls in chains, And so much gold! Burns the city, On a pyre of wine. Their noble beauty Sold for a copper coin. Burns the city, On a pyre of wine. SLOWLY Walking through burning Babylon I see my glory In every drop of blood That marks its roads of stone. Walking through burning Babylon Exultant soldiers hail my name Hundreds of desperate lives in chains , And too many eyes on me.

Her body lies close to me, I smell her scent, I feel the heat. Nothing else matters, nothing around. I must admit I've some faults, Mistrusting, silent, even unfair. My road goes far, but I don't know where. CHORUS Hence, I still can't explain why one day she simply decided to stay. Now she smiles in her dreams and the world stops spinning around, while its pain turns into music. Meeting her was a coincidence, "luck" if you prefer, a thing that can just happen in a day of despair. CHORUS But all this can't explain why one day she simply decided to stay. There is a war outside this room, I cannot hide, nor pretend not to see. SOLO GUITAR It doesn't scare me too much, what I can't manage alone is all that gray.

A battle in the night is just Sparks of metal over metal, Curses, screams and smell of fear. And ghostly white light From indifferent stars above, Looking at scared men running around. Celts and Romans Different ways to curse, But same shiny colour of blood Same smell of fear. I can't see the river I know the water's red. I can't see my enemy But I know he's around me. Blood on my eyes, Blood in the mouth. I don't fight for glory, Nor for an emperor sitting so far away. Now I fight for my life, And no reason is better. I only kill to survive, Just to see another day. CHORUS Brothers and citizens, Sons of the Empire, Let's close the ranks, Let's raise the spears. Let's show these savages The Legion strength. Let's bring our laws In these forgotten lands. - Back to Rome We will have glory Women and wine, More than you dream, To rest our bones, To heal any wound. Let's close the ranks, Let's raise the spears. Solo guitar CHORUS These little men Come from the south They have dark skin And women clothes But when they fight, They fight like devils. They want our lands, The holy forests, - The ancient oaks And the snowy fields. If gods have planned Our defeat tonight Let it be, but They will pay The highest price For each one of our lives. CHORUS Brothers and citizens, Sons of the Empire, Let's close the ranks, Let's raise the spears. Let's show these savages The Legion strength. Let's bring our laws In these forgotten lands. - Back to Rome We will have glory Women and wine, More than you dream, To rest our bones, To heal any wound. Let's close the ranks, Let's raise the spears. Celts and Romans different Voices, but same colour Of blood, same smell of fear.

Strikes the pain Deep is the wound Heavy the armor Painful the breath. Far feels the battle Far are the screams pumps tired the heart burning blood in the veins God of the darkness, God, warrior God! I sacrificed the lamb I burned the incense The priests of Toth Assured me of glory So, which was the fault That signed my fate? Where was the hand bringer of glory? Where were power and luck? He looks at the sky and shines far in the emptiness... Sky, empty sky, laughing at me , That day I paid with gold, for your protection. Deep in the temple of the Dark One. For hours the priests they prayed for me But where was his hand? Runs the river. But where was his sword? Blows the wind. Sky, empty sky, laughing at me That day I paid with gold, for your protection. Sky empty sky, darker than ever Today blood and pain are the price of my faith.

Morgan Le Fey (Oh Morgan, my love) this world is boring sad on his own Another Arthur is not going to be born since the Pendragon is lost and gone Let's give the men something to sing.

Winter has come, and maybe it was time, leafless trees standing around my house. Burns the fire, down in the stony hall where my fathers used to sit. Falls the rain on empty fields where the hares prepare to sleep Winter is knocking at my door, but it's a strong one and it will resist. Still the moment has come to hold what I love the most. Covers the snow the stormy mountains where the game hides from the wolves. I don't need another season. SOLO GUITAR I don't need another season. Just more time to hold her on my chest, look at the birds flying to the west.

Eli, Eli Eli Lema Sabactani! Oh, why hast thou forsaken me? Eli, Eli Eli Lema Sabactani! Why love asks for so much pain? Rough wood scorches my skin Each step is harder Pain, deep like a sin. Blood over my eyes But I can hear Yesterday friends laughs. My heart won't bring me up there Breath doesn't come. Laughs everywhere. Pitiless sun burns my throat No friendly faces To calm this thirst. Who's him, what did he do? A fool who had a dream A lover without sin Law won't allow a king with no crown John, brothers, where are ye? Peter, Denying me. Love doesn't fear wounds, Father, But this poor body shakes... Nails through bones A cross is made Pain makes us all the same These two men At my side Would deserve a better fate. I won't go I won't leave As he didn't leave me I was lost With no pride Then one day he smiled. Silently a woman cries Little whispers of pain Fading slowly at sunset Three crosses in the rain No, father! Not her, no! This is not for her eyes Now I know, Bring her away This is a price well paid Seventh hour One single cry I know it's over now Donno how So much to say But I just ran away Silently a woman cries Little whispers of pain Fading slowly at sunset Three crosses in the rain T'was a price well paid The corpse seems to smile T'was a price well paid

The two men look at each other, Both have a role in this story, But one of them won't understand. Fate curious irony. Once my wife dreamed of you, I wondered what it'd mean. But no fault I've seen, Into your words. Pilatus, governor, listen to us! We are the priests of Jerusalem, Has to die, this blasphemous man Who shamelessly swears curses and lies! He's here to keep peace, The peace of Rome. Peace at any cost. Always. People of Galilee, Pick one to save. For one that'll be free, One'll die. He's here to keep peace, The peace of Rome. Peace at any cost. Always. What is your choice? Jesus the King, Or this Barabbas The thief? The will of these people is clear, There's nothing more he can do. The crowd claims the life of this man No reason to say "no". Blood ran through his hands many times But this one burns like fire would. Water won't wash away this mark No, nothing now it could!

Now, right now, I only want to die… Shouldn’t my time come, at last, To vanish In the dust? But men have no memory, gods no mercy. Only the fire I gave them Will burn Forever on Earth. Eagle, stop for a moment, Eagle, stop, listen to me. Do you know which was my crime? Do you know what is my name? Gods where scared by men, tiny shining souls Always asking “Why?” Wide eyes, Staring at the sky Unbearable pain, endless, eternal. I’ll never have a rest, Claws deep down Into my chest. Prometeus, forgotten gold, One millions years he lived. Men raising from the mud, he saw, Standing and screaming “no!” Father of gods, whatever you will do, I gave then a choice, Now they see: They want fear you! Eagle, silent eagle, eating my liver Forever regrowing Tell me why I cannot die. We got the light, we got a chance. Trough the night we will see, To break this eternal dance, To be finally free. Scared gods, can you chain the fire Like arrows from a bow, Arches of light in the night, Sparks will fly and grow.

The patrol is here! Hide in the darkness! Quick come with me, Silent or lost. The mark we refused, The beast has no mercy. We are the game, He's the hunter! Forty two months has ruled Over kings and kingdoms. Over the Earth. His wicked miracles Have poisoned our dreams. Black thorns of despair. Run, behind the corner! Run, into the shadow! Quick, man! Quick. Crazy wizards reign. Wise men hiding, Waiting a sign. Seven seals broken, Now rules the beast. Evil is loosen over the world. Seven seals broken, Seven trumpets played. The age of darkness has come on Earth. But in the deepest, In the darkest hour, Still someone has not lost his heart When no one believes, When fear only rules, Still someone has not lost his hopes. Beware of a lamb, Vane emperor! It's time: The Age of the Return Has come! In a white cloud I've seen Death coming with a crown. They are here. Oh evil Babylon, Which lie will save you Now that they have come? Ten cruel kings of the world, Blasphemous alliance It's the end. One thousand years Will last his reign of love. Now I'm hiding But soon I'll raise It's time... The age of the return Has come! Beware of a lamb, Vane emperor! It's time... The age of the return Has come! Seven seals broken Now rules the beast Evil is loosen over the world Seven seals broken Seven trumpets played The age of darkness has come on Earth But in the deepest In the darkest hour Still someone has not lost his heart When no one believes When fear only rules Still someone has not lost his hopes.
