i. eruption
1, 2, 3 4!

[instrumental]

ii. stones of years

[verse 1]
has the dawn ever seen your eyes?
have the days made you so unwise?
realize, you are

[verse 2]
had you talked to the winds of time
then you’d know how the waters rhyme
taste of wine

[verse 3]
how can you know where you’ve been?
in time, you’ll see the sign
and realize your sin
(ah*ah*ah*ah)

[keyboard solo]

[verse 4]
will you know how the seed is sown?
all your time has been overgrown
never known
[verse 5]
have you walked on the stones of years?
when you speak, is it you that hеars?
are your ears full?
you can’t hear anything at all

iii. iconoclast 06:27*07:43

[instrumental]

iv. mass

[verse 6]
thе preacher said a prayer
save every single hair on his head, he’s dead
the minister of hate
had just arrived too late to be spared
who cared?

[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made

[verse 7]
the pilgrim wandered in
committing every sin that he could, so good
the cardinal of grief
was set in the belief he’d be saved
from the grave
[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made

[keyboard solo]

[verse 8]
the high priest took a blade
to bless the ones that prayed and all obeyed
the messenger of fear
is slowly growing, nearer to the time
a sign

[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made

[verse 9]
a bishop rings a bell
a cloak of darkness fell across the ground
without a sound
the silent choir sing and in their silence
bring jaded sound, harmonic ground

[refrain]
the weaver in the web that he made

v. manticore
[instrumental]

vi. battlefield (including epitaph)

[verse 10]
clear the battlefield and let me see
all the profit from our victory
you talk of freedom, starving children fall
are you deaf when you hear the season’s call?

[verse 11]
were you there to watch the earth be scorched?
did you stand beside the spectral torch?
now the leaves of sorrow turned their face
scattered on the ashes of disgrace

[instrumental break]

[verse 12]
every blade is sharp, the arrows fly
where the victims of your armies lie
were the blades of grass and arrows rain
then there’d be no sorrow, be no pain

[verse 13]
confusion will be my epitaph
as i crawl a cracked and broken path
if we make it, we can all sit back and laugh

vii. aquatarkus

[instrumental]

[outro]
thank you
