Once from north, A king brought his queen. Heavensent, angels kneel for her. No one saw, the cruelty of her thoughts When the plague came, she condemned the realm. A tower built, far from misery Burned the town to ashes and dust Forsaken, crowd slay the king Her true love, damned and forlorn was. Sacrifice them all to save her own, Nothing matters more, than beauty to keep Cruelty is just insanity’s mask, Blinded for revenge, a promise from hell "I’ll be back, you will pay!" She made sick, she could not foresee Death will find, us all at the end Cast a spell, one day she’ll return She will rest, asleep in her grave. She will rest, for centuries won’t wake Threw a curse, over this forsaken land. Sacrifice them all to save her own, Nothing matters more, than beauty to keep Cruelty is just insanity’s mask, Blinded for revenge, a promise from hell.

You’ll pay, your sins, fire! Long ago in the land of trilling birds, Dark clouds came in from the north, left silence. Now is a reign where no light will shine again Fear coats our prosperity dreams, living-hell! Our time has come, a chance to rewrite the end Dread never made a hero’s Renown. There’s no place for tyrants in fairytales, To free our lives get the Crown of our fate. Wise men told once about the rebellion against the Queen, Heaven will be burned up for her revenge. She will return, your sons will pay your betrayal Sacrifice to keep her beauty one more day. Our time has come, a chance to rewrite the end Dread never made a hero’s Renown. There’s no place for tyrants in fairytales... Our time has come, a chance to rewrite the end Dread never made a hero’s Renown. There’s no place for tyrants in fairytales, To free our lives recover the Crown of our fate. Poor fools of mine, you will never get the crown of fate for I am the mistress of your destiny You must overthrow me to release your souls from my mortal embrace. There’s no forgiveness enough to erase your uprising. I’ll rise again and you’ll never taste the "Ever after" you were promised with.

Renascence 06:48
Thirteen offerings for the highest, Before, the moon does shine. One by one heave their last sigh An omen for the bane. Renascence is close; your Queen is now back From my ashes, I’ll reborn. Blind devotion fades everything I once was for beauty heavensent, dragged to madness. Crowd: Vanity consumed your soul, Elyan: Cast a spell on me tonight, Crowd: Barely alive, you’re so cold Elyan: At dawn I will awake. Crowd: Can’t you see you are no longer the one in the mirror? Blind devotion fades everything I once was for beauty heavensent, dragged to madness For centuries I was condemned To oblivion and silence in my grave, forever rest. Embrace me magic light bring me back my powers I’ve been waiting for so long in the shadows. Mirror tell me who’s the fairest of them all I will live forever as a shade in your dreams I am the one of whom fairytales talk about The sweet poison within the red apple God created me as his own image and likeness, Cardinal sin, beauty zenith... Could you forgive my mortal soul for all my sins? Blind devotion... Crowd: Hail the Queen! For centuries... Crowd: Keel before your Queen! She could not rest!

Elyan: Tonight under full moon, I pray to the Lord Invoke thy Glory I bring you sacrifice Pure young blood for my return. Mephisto: Heard your pray for mercy From darkness, I awoke If you ask me for help You shall obey! Elyan: Blood of thirteen virgins, Tonight I’ll take their lives For my beauty to never die! Souls of seven brave men, I haunt their tameless heart For my powers to be once reborn. Long for the time I was Divinity’s muse An ancient curse grabbed All I have ever wished Condemned to die for my sins. Mephisto: Forget your sins, traces of your past life become the mistress of evilness our powers... Elyan: Look at me, Mephisto: ...unite will shine Elyan: I surrender I’ll give you my all Mephisto: Above mortal souls you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours My succubus unchained forever. Elyan: Blood of... Mephisto: You have sold your soul to me You’ll be higher than ever. Together we’ll shine Elyan: Together we’ll shine I’ll be what you desire Mephisto: You’re my desire The hunter is the prey You are the huntress of hearts. Elyan: Give me fierce, beauty For I am mistress of evilness Blood of...

Swear I could not know Blame hurts deep my soul Could I have foreseen? Just looked back We had no farewell Never thought we’d need to And then silence came Searing Give me a sign; let me know You are safe where you are So I could forgive myself not holding so tight Songs say life goes on My wounds will soon heal Tears me apart will I forget? Rip my bleeding heart Time erases pain And then just remains Oblivion Give me a sign... Give me a sign; let me know You are safe where you are Maybe it’s your time to go, fly free goodbye my love.
6.
Prepare for my revenge, The darkest night has now come I bring you fire, pain, fear! My evil curse There's nothing more cruel than beauty itself, Concede to few, longed by all Struggle against the madness burning within Set fire to ashes your life Punish for your insolence Broken is the glass of time Pray for your own sacrifice Forever lost, prisoners trapped in time Locked in a cage of gold Constant longing for memories forgotten Will your suffering heal my soul? One by one the traitors of realm Those will be cursed To be martyrs of the Mankind One by one the true devoted Those will be raised To the throne to rule mercilessly There’s nothing more cruel than beauty itself, Concede to few, longed by all Struggle against the madness burning within Chaos will reign in this land Woe for what’s left behind Dread for what drags to hell Sorrow will fulfil your hearts Forever lost...

Elyan: What if is true what they say That my soul is rot and damned? That my dreams were denied 'cause they were selfish and unkind. Tell me mirror on the wall Why I'm cursed to death? Mirror: You locked inside your pain And your blindness' what remains Can't you see they'll come, To hunt you for your deeds? Please awake from this darkness And stop this no sense war. Elyan: Dragged by the madness of your dreams Mirror: Leaving behind a trail of sins Elyan: Memories try to deceive your mind Mirror: Forsaken is the essence of Mankind Elyan: Abandoned all beauty within Mirror: For a cruelty no one could have forseen. Elyan: I can't forgive nor forget For centuries I had lament If I fall this land will burn between life and death I promised From the depths of their hearts I'll rip what is mine Mirror: Bury your thirst for blood It brings nothing but pain You've waited for so long In the cell of your thoughts yearning for an unreal past Consuming you within Dragged by... Mirror: Harken me, there is still salvation Take my hand towards redemption Elyan: Should I fade the flames of my revenge Let myself drown now on its edge? Mirror: It's your last chance, decide which path you'll take! Elyan: I do refuse, my poisoned thorn is now set! Dragged by...

Swords Rise 08:45
Crowd: Dark clouds fade, We will kneel no more Mild breeze brought, The cold scent of war Burn the throne, Tyrant Queen will fall! Elyan: Unchained is the rage Reminds them who they are Long lost memories Unfold black swords tonight Soon they will open their eyes Will come to claim for their land Set fire to my throne Dance in flames the end of my realm Better beware! 'cause towards death you march, side by side Swords in your hands, Mortal weapons, cannot kill what's beenkilled before! Slay me! Burn me! But you can't erase my legacy Your screams my score I promise you, if I die, I'll be reborn! Never ending tale, for I'm forever your Queen. Set us free! Redeem us, we'll find our peace! A night with no moon, Horizon painted red I hear them awake My curse 'be torn tonight Soon they will open their eyes Will come to claim for their land Set fire to my throne Dance in flames the end of my realm Better beware!... My beloved one was the first sacrified Could have been all you ever desired You reject, forever we'll perform this act. Better beware!... Cry a river to your God for the slain Abandoned by hands of your saviour Better beware!...

Run for life, defeated my realm This wounds won't heal Abandoned my throne... No compassion for my soul I never begged for it Ever will I taste divinity for myself? No one will survive When I fall I'll drag you all with me Songs will be composed Widows tears won't dry Fight, 'cause my destiny was decided Once I chose to be feared not to be loved You'll never catch me alive! No place to hide, no God to pray Cannot chain what you fear most I am the mirror of your own sins I played the role was given I am not to blame Forgotten graves with no name Mine remains Sanctified your crimes There's no fair game for your rejoice In my decadence Lost my right to live Damned, 'cause my destiny was decided Once I chose to be feared not to be loved You will never catch me alive! No place to hide, no God to pray Cannot chain what you fear most I am the mirror of your own sins Blamed, 'cause my destiny was decided Once I chose to be feared not be loved You will never catch me alive! No place to hide, no God to pray Cannot chain what you fear most I am the mirror of your own sins Lost, 'cause my destiny is decided I choose to be feared not to be loved You won't catch me alive! You'll die before!

Curtin drop tonight, dry my tears My cruel mask has fallen apart Black veil of my heart fades away Loneliness in my flower grave. Lay down by the river side, All beauty reborns to die Bless my soul 'cause I've lost this fight Feel the cold embrace of the night Wonder if I regret my deeds, If from madness I'll ever suffer, Or I'll find peace at the end By the cold caress of my lord. Bless my soul...
