("Through a slow and painfull awakening")
...They met on the captain's dining platform. Seven pilgrims with different stories, But neverless with equal main factor - the mystery of the Chrome bladed creature ... the Beast Each one carrying the hope of being the chosen one, To have his wish fulfilled, Knowing that the other six must die hoping. All must they tell their story! |

A murder without death,just one minute of complete disconnection Loss of aeons of time, loss of mass amount of information Left outside the web, with 5 days unaccouted for A millenium of non-communication Searching across the galaxy wide for the data lost Unknown enemies ready to strike, to kill at any cost Penetrating core periphery, finding the old earth re-creation Saved in a temple, as I received the implant information Secrets hidden in lost memory - Together we'll find it, and we'll write history Beautiful stranger, your life's a mystery - Powered by human genetics and poetry THE SECRET OF THE LEACHING NETWORK AND U.I.: Divided in 3, each fighting their own fight - to gain the same purpose, to gain the same might Solids argue that between core and humanity - A certain level of symbiosis is necessary The non-persistent advocate immediate extinction - Humans are a threat to complete prediction Extremes promote the project with obsession - Reconstruction and retrieval for U.I. culmination HYPERION! - The penultimate opposition Non-subject from laws of physics and computerized prediction Moving back in time with messages of war The majestic valley graves so disturbing to the core The outcome is two futures of war and Beast invasion One's a retroactive strike from core domination The second is a fist through time sent for core destruction A final blow from enemies who escaped the non-persistents' extinction I carry your child and I carry the memory of all you ever were and all you'd ever be Ans as they take your body away, the frantic worshippers are chanting to me Bless our Saviour - bless the tool to our forgiveness |

["I'll write the story of the world"]
In cryogenic sleep I lost my sense, I lost my soul Experiencing craziness has made my heart turn cold For centuries and more, I've searched my head for perfect words I'll take my chance or live forever in a world of hurt Impalement on a tree of thorns is definitely an option I need the Beast to write my cantos without interruption The trinity is split, parts roaming back through time and space And Empathy is to be lured out of its hiding place I'll face the pain with open mind, Coz' otherwise I'd die inside The perfect irony in my life I know the answer to the future, Now is to be solved by us The seven pilgrims of mankind On the verge of suicide the butchery began And writting capabilities came back to me again The disappearance of my muse had ceased with all the killing The cantos only lived through all the blood the Beast was spilling My poem bruned, destroyed in desperate screams of misery And so, i'll find my inspiration on the shining tree I'll face the pain with open mind, Coz' otherwise I'd die inside The perfect irony in my life I know the answer to the future, Now is to be solved by us The seven pilgrims of mankind "With ashes flying to the sky I realize the reason why" |

("In the Blazing Sunlight , the priest unveiled his horrid tale...")
I travelled on through the swamplands , sailed up the river damp To bring back the church from its state of oblivion A mission to the land of the long gone retired tribe The inbred people on the edge of the cleft I crossed the lightning horrors of the burning forest To face my unattainable holy task A Hell alive , Armageddon , a violent energetic eruption Of immense proportions Domine Dirige Nos Kept alive for eternity by this throbbing parasite Distorting , numbing , mind reducing - Eternal life through this horrid growth "Saying mass in my life's work - the awe striking chapel - sweet communion , I'm at inner peace" ... to drive out this parasite by self inflicted non-lethal pain... "I am eternal , immortal" ...I'm swirling in a vortex of the deepest agony... ...offered an eternity of mindless life... I saw the wonder of a giant church carved into the moutainside A descending path into the mystery of the labyrinthine worlds Idolized and worshipped by the tribe of the short retard men ... I began praying to my God again We walked into the tunnel mouth, eroded by elements As darkness gave away to light brighter than thousand stars I was embraced by the legendary avatar , (the creature of death) In the illuminated glowing vaults ...I'll fight my immortality Kept alive for eternity by this throbbing parasite Distorting , numbing , mind reducing - Eternal life through this horrid growth |

("In love and dreams she comes to me... The Keeper of Time")
Life as a soldier was all to easy for me - To eradicate and annihilate fit my identity Raised as a fighting machine, to destroy the enemy threat Suddenly and with no sense you came with the bloodshed Sons and daughters of war, I have witnessed a creature I can't control anymore Fell in love with a girl of the future, now talk to me, teach me... war lovers we will be! You made a difference in the chaos I saw - You gave me a reason not to fight anymore In between rage and sudden death - You gave me hope - you stole my breath Brainwashed in the art of war I've got the will to fight on - All sense of humanity is a history -long gone Following the orders - no remorse or no fear - You appeared to me Like a mad dream here Then you came from a distant unknown, between dream and reality Fighting together from time to time, now talk to me, teach me... war lovers we will be! I met you in your past, but in my future in a meeting still to come And listened to your whispers, you had a voice that made me numb Your eyes blazed like jewels in the sun as you whispered in my ear I'll take care of you my love - you've got nothing to fear When morning came, we kept each other perfectly warm in the chilling breeze Constantly sand or snow tore at naked walls Your voice burred with the hint of an accent unknown Constantly sand or snow tore at naked walls In a time of passion I close my eyes....... And see : Bodies burning in the solid laser light Heat of plasma explosions as I try to survive the night Fireballs enlarging as I lie among the dead More dead to come as suns explode in ruby red THE DYING WORLDS!!! Star systems, extinct in spasms of deadly fire Thickened air itself aflame as I can't control my desire Seas of superheated air rise in vast pulses of flame Blazing in mad heat - you brought a war from where you came THE DYING WORLDS!!! |

We floated on the oceans in hazy dreams of love Living life to the full, sun blazing from above Strangers from different worlds Yet oh so much the same Dearest - I'll never forget your name ...I'll always remember your name Making love under the water Feel the pleasure on my skin In your eyes I saw the burning flame Of passionate vitality to fight a sin [HOLOGRAM:] Shipman, my love, to hide your disgrace That, at least, I think, you could have done for me See me the way I was in between "our" days Shipman - The pain shall not leave you, it stays ...The pain crushes your heart forever Making love under the water Feel the pleasure on my skin In your eyes I saw the burning flame Of passionate vitality to fight a sin It's time for the people of the sea to meet up with their sharks You're ageing much faster than me ...irrevocable time debt separates us Making love under the water Feel the pleasure on my skin In your eyes I saw the burning flame Of passionate vitality to fight a sin Entering your tomb, your monument of pride On our last reunion, I'm there but you have died Missing your touch - the energy you give Dearest - you're gone, but your legend will live on Your memory will last forever I'm crying tears that you will never see... |

Beautiful this broken town , even though it's fled by man White doves flying in the sun , above desert sands Where the city stood , now ruins stands Sitting in Darkness with Tales To Tell Arguing , drinking all night as well The last fair or pilgrims with answers to gain To go to the valley and meet with "The One" in vain Drifting down the river From the railing we stare Journey on to the sea of grass The old barge will take us there Led along by mysterious crew Bright shiny eyes and skins of blue The last fair of pilgrims with answers to gain To go to the valley and meet with "The One" in vain Drifting down the river From the railing we stare Journey on to the sea of grass The old barge will take us there |

Subsuming the minds of the traitors made me crazy Insomnia's their way of paying back My powers are lost, I'm calling the Grand Master Hidin'in her shelter at Black Crag The longlasting winter, the fall of Nodonn Adversary's coming, his breed on the run Predicted in old tales, envisioned before Indications of the Nigtfall War Searching the land for the metallurgist Only he can built the timemachine The children of Abbaddon I protect now Hidin' them within my mental screen The longlasting winter, the fall of Nodonn Adversary's coming, his breed on the run Predicted in old tales, envisioned before Indications of the Nigtfall War Floating in trance in the Quicksilver pool The lion, the dragon, the eagle - the healers Symbols of being reborn in the world of the living Will shine on forth in pain The conquesting races in false harmony Gathered on the ancient Field of Gold I saw through their treachery, saw through their lies Their minds are now ashes, their bodies are now cold The longlasting winter, the fall of Nodonn Adversary's coming, his breed on the run Predicted in old tales, envisioned before Indications of the Nigtfall War The War...

A hundred lightyears away, lies a hidden heart
Made up for a purpose, I can't tell A bridge so insane, it tears my soul apart Made up for a reason I can't tell I can't remember my own name I look around, am I insane? Eternity is lost, and I am turnin' upside down Forever in the puzzle of my life A path of crooked thorns leads my lonely way Disappears in a distance, I can't tell A shadow in the dark, makes me so afraid Whispering me a story, I can't tell I can't remember my own name I look around, am I insane? Eternity is lost, and I am turnin' upside down Forever in the puzzle of my life A path of crooked thorns leads my lonely way Disappears in a distance, I can't tell A shadow in the dark, makes me so afraid Whispering me a story, I can't tell I can't remember my own name I look around, am I insane? Eternity is lost, and I am turnin' upside down Forever in the puzzle of my Forever in the puzzle of my Forever in the puzzle of my life [Kristian] |

from Manticora - Darkness With Tales To Tell (2001)
Dawn of time, the first-born am I
I will be the last one to die Guardian of the Earth, protector of the sea To it all I hold the master key I can tell the faith of mortal men I can tell you how you die and when When I'm looking deep into your mind I can see you're ignorant and blind Dressed in all colours, called by all names I disguise as water, earth or flames I've shown you every dream, shown you every nightmare Even though you still don't seem to care I can tell the faith of mortal men I can tell you how you die and when When I'm looking deep into your mind I can see you're ignorant and blind I am the twilight shadow I'll enlighten your darkest sins When forever ends I'll stop the cause for living I've seen the way to paradise, I know the road to hell Where you're going I for sure can tell The end is closer, your maker you will meet Destruction of the Earth has been complete I can tell the faith of mortal men I can tell you how you die and when When I'm looking deep into your mind I can see you're ignorant and blind [Mads,Lars] |
