Arcane Astral Aeons - Lyrics



In Styx Embrace

The time has come
For me to face who I have become
The looking-glass stares back hard
Who are the one before me,
This lost and lonely soul so frail and scarred

Give away to the pain of yesterday
We're all lost, scarred and broken anyway

Like the darkness conquers the light
Will a new dawn come to life
Like the day gives in to the night
Will the sunset cease the light
I hold my pledge to thee
Who darken all my dreams

The haunting past
Endures my persistence at long last
I gave me all for no greater cause
At the end it downed on me
There was no need to even carry on

Dying emotions and dreams
All led adrift on the Stygian stream
Cursed down below and beneath
This river will seize all secrete
I drown in the currents
I'm embraced by the Styx
A startling burden
A total eclipse

Silence speaks louder than the knife
Timeless appears the void that wore me down right to the ground



Into The Night

Into the eye of the storm
Deception and scorn
Dark clouds form
Into the depths of the sea
I can not breathe
I'm lulled into sleep
I'm sinking deeper in a bottomless sea

Into the night, the waves grow higher
Into the night, where foes conspired
Here where all daylight gives in
Into the night, so cold and dire
Into the night, the moon rise higher
Here at the end of all things

Into the lingering dark
No light in my heart
No gleam, nor a spark
Into the realms of the moon
A bright silver spoon
A dying maroon
The undertaker emerged way too soon

Les vagues se déchaînent
Ou l'ennemi conspire



Love Like Cyanide

Here we go once again
Nothing's changed, all remains the same
Sharpened words cut like knives
In this state where only frenzy thrives
Can't find a way
We're all lost anyway
Every day's the same
(We are all broken)

Can't you see, tell me why
You still linger in a world of strife
Your heart bleeds, you're dead inside
Love to you is like cyanide

Come undone, fallen one
Your spirit and your hope's long gone
Battles lost, none are won
You're hailing from a broken home
Can't find your way
We're all lost anyway
Different day, same pain
We are all broken

All remains unchanged, lunacy lingers
Tell me who's deranged, who pulls the trigger
Distant and estranged, emotionless
Our minds in chains, revived hopelessness

The candle's burning down way too fast
Trauma transcends, dead-ends



Desire

Your desire takes me higher
Love the way that you light me on fire
So appealing, pure and deceiving
There's no way to resist you, believe me

You come to me light as the breeze
You're taking the lead in this dance of primary needs
Of instincts and dreams
Your senses all on fire, burning bright as the sun

When you look my way I ignite
You're catching my eye
The depth of your eyes draws me in
To thrills and to sin
My senses all on fire, burning bright as the sun

J'aime la douce ivresse de ta subtile étreinte, O mon amour
Quand ton regard de braise s'embrase et se perd lorsque ma main te touche
Vois avec quelle adresse j'abandonne sans crainte et sans détour toute vaine résistance
Ce pour qu'enfin je goûte au baiser de ta bouche

My desire
Takes my higher
High and wired
I'm on fire



Asphyxia

Smother me, choke my persistence
Underneath the surface cold
And in my mind there's no resistance
No defense, there's no stronghold

I gaze into deceiving mirrors
They stare back hard, so vile and cold
Within their grasp, hangs my submission
They cling on tight, they won't let go
I can't take no more

Hold on to me, I'm led adrift in deceitful seas
My limbs turn numb as the waves subdued me
Can't breathe, I can't breathe
I'm at the mercy of the vile and deep blue sea
Can't breathe

Eventually I lost my grip
And through my hands this life slipped
Although it felt like it was long gone
No future there, for this life undone
I can't carry on

Let go of me, I'm led adrift in deceitful seas
My limbs turn numb as the waves subdued me
Couldn't breathe, I could not breathe
Drowned in the arms of the vile and deep blue sea
Won't breathe



Queen Of Lies

You have them all right where you want them to be
Time to premise your mind games and your deceit
You play the victim in your sick foul game
At the barricades for fortune and for fame

Deceiving, misleading
Betray them all with your deceit, dear

So angel-like
Your fervent eyes, a virtuous smile
Deceive them all, you queen of lies

Your angel eyes make a flawless facade
A pure smile conceals your every fraud
There's no remorse and you have no regrets
You master them all like marionettes

Another treachery, another lie
Deceived us all in the blink of an eye
Good riddance, bid thee no farewell
Here's to your journey towards that burning hell...



Nos Heures Sombres

Dans le brasier des tréfonds de la conscience,
Sur le bûcher ce qui brûle c'est l'absence
Et de nos étreintes émanent encore
Les incandescences du feu des remords

Toi, viens avec moi avant que la Nuit ne voit ses voiles qui se déchirent
Toi, viens près de moi
Que nos ailes se déploient juste avant que l'on chavire

Parmi les cendres se mêlent let contresens
Qui se répand comme le poison, offense
Et j'ai sur les lèvres le vin des regrets
Le sang de nos plaies, Qui coule à jamais
Le sand de nos plaies...

Toi, viens avec moi, tu seras Roi de mon Royaume des ombres
Toi, bois avec moi la coupe jusqu'à la lie
De nos heures sombres
Et que viennent les ombres

Toi, viens avec moi avant que la Nuit ne voit ses voiles qui se déchirent
Toi, viens près de moi
Que nos ailes se déploient juste avant que l'on chavire

Toi, viens avec moi, tu seras Roi de mon Royaume des ombres
Toi, bois avec moi la coupe jusqu'à la lie
De nos heures sombres
Et que viennent les ombres



The Voyage

I'm headed downstream, lost in a dream
Along with the current I flow
I'm passing through time, bound for decline
I'm in for whatever may come

Fade into the night
Fall apart inside, can't find no light
I have lost my way
I was led astray on the twelfth day
Onwards and on, and on did I go
You left me behind where only God knows

Still headed downstream, it's time to give in
All voyages come to an end
If you caught my eye, the day that I died
What would you might then comprehend



Aerodyne

Head towards the stars
Towards a galaxy afar
Circle in a plane
Light years away
I'm passing by the moon
Somewhere around mid-afternoon
Won't be back anytime soon

Livewire, on fire
I can't get any higher
Towards the sun
I'm too far gone

Hands upon the wheel
Forward on at sonic speed
I can't slow down
No one taught me how
Passing by the sun
Like a bullet shot from a gun
There's no way I'll be outrun
There's no way

The desert sun aflame
I ride that horse without a name
Every day seems all the same
My soul's on fire
How can I ever get any higher
Afraid to fall down off the wire

All these voices scream at me
They're calling out my name
Cold dead hands reach out in greed
It's driving me insane

Livewire, on fire
I can't get any higher
I ride cloud nine
I'm aerodyne



The Twilight Hour

See them dancing in the night
Circle around a bright bonfire
Behold the scenes of witchery
Unravel before me
I can hear their endless screams
Calling in my wildest dreams
Their calls remain a mystery unknown to me
Unfolding signs send shivers down my spine

There's a summoning at night
Around a bonfire, fierce and burning bright
I feel enlarged with strange affright
I can hear them every night
With every dream they come alive

Falling down to the waking hours
I can still hear distant howls
The perspiration on my brow
All dawns on me now
And so the hours pass on by
Another day long gone somehow
And in the hours of twilight it's all coming back
Unfolding signs send shivers down my spine

There's a summoning at night
Around a bonfire, fierce and burning bright
I feel deranged with strange affright
I can hear them every night
With every dream they come alive
I can hear them night after night



Glowing Embers

Behold the glowing embers
Of glory that once was
Still shining bright within your eyes
The beacon of my life
You are my everlasting fire
That burns with all of my desires

You are the light that conquers darkness
You are the dream that transcends
You are the hope that speaks to my heart
My faith until the end

Behind the wills of darkness
There is a pale dim light
It's shimmering and dwindling
Right at the edge of the mind
I gaze towards a shining past
That days to come will never outlast
