Artax Ascends

Part I – Symphony of the Night

Verse I

Run

as the screams in the sky

sing a nocturne of cries

Our kingdom is coming

to an end

The Fiends of her castle

The Halls of the Nothing

Sinking us all

into the damned

Pre Chorus

Go on

Take this world

The beauty that held our stars

have now become our scars

Take my life

But what I have on the line

Will always remain mine

You can't

take this love

The embrace

of true light

never lets go

Chorus

Here we go

To the end my bride

We’re not waking up alive

We’re not waking up alive

They can't destroy

What was never meant to die

Bridge

(See through my eyes)

(Oblivion)

Carmilla

Where’s your heart?

Where’s your heart?

Where is your heart?

Where’s your heart?

Oblivion

Verse II

Run

As the songs of the Shades

They dance and they sway

Medusa

and all her marionettes

The last of our soldiers

death march to her keep

In our silent despair

who dares to breathe?

Pre Chorus

It’s yours

Have this world

The beauty that held our stars

have now become our scars

Take my life

But what I laid on the line

Is not yours to decide

You can't

take this fire

The embrace

of true light

never lets go

Chorus

Here we go

To the end my bride

We’re not waking up alive

We’re not waking up alive

They can't destroy

What was never meant to die

Bridge

(See through my eyes)

(Oblivion)

Carmilla

Where’s your heart?

Where’s your heart?

Where is your heart?

Where’s your heart?

Oblivion

Verse III

Let fate

stay the night

Before the rays of the dawn

I know that we'll be gone

Yes love

May it be

See the beauty in fear

as we fade beyond their reach

Infinite dark

can't hold light

The embrace

of true light

never lets go

Chorus

Here we go

To the end my bride

We’re not waking up alive

We’re not waking up alive

Here we go

To the end my bride

Were not waking up alive

Were not waking up alive

They can't destroy

What was never meant to die

Outro

Camilla

Take it all

Take it all

Into your heart

Part II – Dirge of the Nothing (Instrumental)

Part III – God of Fire

Verse

As my body shakes

As my soundless mind

begins to break

As the darkness takes

My soul laid to waste

My caskets falling deeper now

But you won't let me die

I hear your calls

from the other side

I can feel the change

tapping in my veins

I want to scream out to you

I’ve been dead so long

Smoldering

inside this hell

As each hammer strike

makes my heart ignite

I’m reborn with endless flame

Like a god of fire

raging through their shadow skies

I'm gonna make them burn

I'm gonna make them fade

and from the ashes

ride again

Chorus

So here we go

Into the end my bride

Were not waking up alive

They can't find a way

They can't try to take

what was never meant to die

And like a god of fire

raging through their shadow skies

I'm gonna make them burn

I'm gonna make them fade

From the ashes

ride again

We ride again

Part IV – With Artax, Awake! Arise! (Instrumental)

Part V – Last Ride

Verse

As we rise

from a dream

into a sleep

evanescent

Having truth

knowing the means

What made our ties

unbroken

What we lost

What we became

Was our hill to die on

We depart

A brighter flame

On this mare we ride on

Somewhere far

Somewhere east

Therein lies our morning
