GustavoMartyns In the middle of something generic and repetitive that is the world of death metal. You have remarkable and unforgettable lyrics. The harmony are pretty common, but it's what marks the genre, Black / Death metal. the melodies are also memorable and striking. You also switched between the vocals to look like you have more than one person singing what was very creative. Could not expect anything better coming from the Swiss metal scene. classic album, my congratulations 10/10 Favorite track: 12th Floor.

undead_wanderer I guess this album was what truly cemented my status as Soul's fan. Her previous music is good as well, and Carpets was a great addition to my library back when it had released, but with this album she's really shown her growth as a musician. Some songs I loved immediately, others needed some time to grow on me but overall it's a very pleasant mdm experience. Favorite track: 12th Floor.

Death comes for me. Oh my angel, I am not afraid. All I want is to fly through the air. Nothing left there for me and I'm falling into this abyss Every day since the day I was blessed Constant moaning that no one can hear Disillusion in darkness and fear Only misery kept me from crushing my dreams And I'm finally ready to shout and confess "I want to see her eyes again" Crystal skies Sacrificed And turned to dust Counting steps to the end No one is holding my hand Nothing to live for I'm leaving my memories behind Eternal creature by my side I hear her calling from inside The voice of reason, voice of truth I am no longer with you One final step and I'll be fine This world isn't my realm While falling into the abyss I think my ignorance was bliss These peaceful pictures in my head Are falling into nothingness A disappearing silhouette Like flowers on my grave She is no longer here. She is no longer anywhere. She doesn't exist. Maybe she never even existed in this mortal life. Oh my angel, please just go away I can't take it much longer, I start to decay It's my final decision and I am much stronger than last time Nothing can change my mind No one will say a good word. No priest will say a prayer. Only the choir of the cursed ones will sing a hymn for me, because I'm a sinner and I will suffer forevermore. The sun is dying (dying) I want to believe The sky is crying (crying) We'll meet again in the afterlife Oh my angel please tell me the truth Why are people believing in you? Is there something that I should've known before Leaving that dream and forgetting beloved one? "I'm your servant and here's what I say Leaving this world is just a delay And if you commit suicide in that case You will never see her again" Eternal creature by my side I hear her calling from inside The voice of reason, voice of truth Я больше не боюсь! One final step and I'll be fine This world isn't my realm While falling into the abyss I know my ignorance was bliss These peaceful pictures in my head Are falling into nothingness A disappearing silhouette Like flowers on my grave Counting steps to the end No one is holding my hand Nothing to live for I'm leaving my memories behind

D.O.E.S. 04:35
I've set my destination The city in the skies The home for winged creation Where dreams come true before my eyes My stone, the aquamarine It glows with magic inside I know I saw it in my dreams White city where two worlds collide I see the sky is turning red And then the sun appears on the horizon, giving birth to a new day I won't let, I won't forget Her eyes, her smile, her voice I need more concentration To stay in this place Time for little demonstration The rain of burning stars from space She can explode the sun and Build a thousand of new Her heart beats with the pulse of this world Painting the sky in purple, yellow, white and blue When darkness fades away We watch the birth of a new world And when I hear her words of hope I promise her to stay the same The snowflakes on her wings Are melting slowly like the stars They disappear in morning skies I whisper... When darkness fades away We watch the birth of a new world And in the light of day I promise her to change for good She whispers in my ear That she'll be here with me Who I was meant to be And what my future holds for me An everlasting moment in Dimension of eternal sunrise A neverending journey through The cosmic spheres in search of truth Awakening, beginning a new day In her embrace again I feel no sadness and no pain And I'll be back one day, I promised her to stay To see her purple eyes and then we'll fly across her white skies When darkness fades away We watch the birth of a new world And in the light of day I promise her to change for good She whispers in my ear That she'll be here with me Who I was meant to be And what my future holds for me

Between two mountains in the forest stands a castle made of stone Where only smartest ponies live and no one sits on sacred throne They have no masters and no gods, they trust in scientific facts Their goal is to create another life form without fear and hate We use intelligence to unite three shapes in one The most important experiment has just begun The strength of earth ponies with feathered wings and horn Another spell, a drop of blood and now it's born "It's alive!" Synthetic skin and crystal eyes, an empty look, yet calm inside Not normal pony anymore, it's stronger, better, modified Let's test this creature with our magic, fire, thunder, wind and rain But right before we start let's give it a name "Artificial Living Intelligence" Creation of our dreams Immortal source of magic power With all three races genes We will expand our science limits With the help of this firstborn Until we figure out what can it do We call it simple - the ALIcorn The one who will save our souls From disbelief, from separation The one who will raise the sun and moon And bring the peace to pony nation

Enigma 06:11
Symbolic visions I trust all my life Gave me reasons to fight and strength to survive Every sign of your presence here and there Like pieces of puzzle, like ghosts in the air Infected structure, my mind is a maze Where I'm locked in the darkness. Enigma's erased Everytime I forget about the light inside The visions remind me how we've met in the night Episodes of our journey, searching for the one Twists and turns through hordes of creatures who never saw the sun Visible, yet we're becoming invincible, nothing can stop us from using its power And none of us knows what will happen to world that we know (don't let me go) Sorrow and silence, the end of his violence, free from his orders forever as one We've become something more in this alternate world of our own The secret has been revealed We have been incarnated And on this endless field Our souls were re-created Enigma, not anymore We'll reach the destination Together forevermore We are divine creation I saw a thousand of seas in your eyes And your body was always a perfect disguise For your soul, for your mind (for what's left behind) And for something I couldn't find (so confined) I couldn't be free from neverending strife Touched the strings of your soul - and now you're alive Made of dreams with my spirit's persistence Called by name, brought to fragile existence We are the nameless souls We're floating without control We're scattered across the space We are ready to erase... In search of sadness I came to this place Shared the emptiness with you in silent embrace Was forgotten like stars in summer sky Passed through soul deformation and few attempts to die That night in august I've found you years ago I remember your smile in the afterglow I was happy and thought it won't be gone But it all was a dream and I woke up alone The secret has been revealed We have been incarnated And on this endless field Our souls were re-created Enigma, not anymore We'll reach the destination Together forevermore We are divine creation Enigma has been erased

The Darkness 05:17
I've let myself drown in anger. I've put myself into perfect isolation. I've spent days accumulating my hatred. And then... I've opened my darkness and let this nightmare begin. December - it's the time when nature dies And all the colors fade to black and white I remember my misery in sleepless night But what was worse - the lack of any fight First he was just a voice in my head And all he wanted was to see her dead He knew that I will blame myself for doing painful things to her And I'll carry this guilt forevermore Five months to take over control I'm going insane, all I want is to end this pain That day I realised what could be worse than death To be a silent witness while he's killing your self Killing your self. Can't cry anymore (words stuck in the throat) I moan, I implore (no one hears my call) Cannot kill this twin (angel and devil in me) I've opened my darkness and let this nightmare begin I have no control and I can't Kill myself to stop this torture Screaming angels beg for mercy Suffering is my misfortune Not my eyes and not my thoughts Not my decisions, not my words Locked in my body, my black cell I only want to end this hell

Your soul begins to crystallize You feel like fire begins to dance around the hooves And then I look into your eyes And hypnotized I fall through light in silent move You've been chosen to find them all To tell the truth about their purpose To light the way through darkest halls And lead the lost ones to the surface You've been singing the songs of hope For those who cared and those who left you And though your light is almost gone I still believe, I can't forget you You are the fire, you are the light You are the music of midnight You are the image, you are the voice Far from perfection, you are my choice Your words inspire me to create Another song without a word yet full of pain You bring the fairytale to life (and all my fears become alive) Another blinded unicorn becomes insane Sing before it's too late for me Play the strings of my soul Never leave me alone Sing for this brave new world today I beg you to stay Believe me, I know One day we'll find a way home You are one of many pegasi But yet my one and only sister And if you had to choose, I know You'd spend your life in the transistor You have no regrets of what has passed Suffering never leads to ascension Make me forget my hideous past Come on and join me in my dimension Sing before it's too late for me Play the strings of my soul Never leave me alone Sing for this brave new world today I beg you to stay Believe me, I know One day we'll find a way home

Ghosts 04:48
I was born in Hoofston on the east coast But I've left my home and I became a ghost Travelling and exploring Equestrian zone My way was always full of danger Another night I've met a stranger And she said to me "I love to be alone" "It's tough to deal with ponies Who always laugh at you and your show Another night spend in my wagon And then another on the go But when some little foals are smiling Because they like the tricks I perform I understand that I'm not one of those Poor useless unicorns" Trotting in solitude With melody of your heart Long road to oblivion The pony work of art Running through emptiness To find a better place Straight to oblivion Where no one knows your face We've been so long in exile And we could barely smile Because our fate was cruel and unfair "But whatever future holds, remember Be yourself and never surrender" That's what I've learned from this blue mare Sometimes we think we're all alone Travelling from Las-Pegasus to Griffonstone Through woods and mountains, down the hill From Trottingham to Ponyville We will remember our mistakes Our fragile past, and if it breaks We'll be elusive ghosts no more And our souls will soar We will soar! Even the great and powerful unicorns make mistakes And no matter what they did in the past They still deserve a second chance Trotting in solitude With melody of your heart Long road to oblivion The pony work of art Running through emptiness To find a better place Straight to oblivion Where no one knows your face

You all at least know that princess Celestia raises the sun and the moon. Now, we are talking of an alicorn who controls the passage of time named princess Tempora The winter season comes to land and then the spirit of disharmony returns to evil roots of his past The massive vortex brought the six of them to Ponyville where everything was twisted and was full of contrasts The heat and cold, two seasons mixed together in one place The wanderers can't solve this puzzle of time and space There was no time before the golden sands of storm approached and it has put those little ponies under threat Protected by the magic shield and slowly going further suddenly they saw a blurred silhouette Rusted armor, hourglass on her chest, body is mutilated Standing in the eye of the storm of time she probably created Her fur is covered with cracks and her mane is glowing with light blue stripes We thought there are no more alicorns, but the truth breaks our stereotypes "No! Stop coming back! You see what you've done! The time is collapsing on us! Now our home was destroyed, But we must stay strong and keep the things under focus! We've always acted alone! We've always been alone! This is the problem you've created - Descending of our world, And now we need to keep the present, future and past separated" Ah, there! The tale of the Weaver of Time - Princess Tempora! She continually uses her magic so that the time would follow a succession and not get tangled in a knot of possible past, present and future events Without the elements of harmony they can't prevent the aftermath and then Nightmare Moon is back But she was not the only one who has returned from deeper past - there is Queen Chrysalis with changelings pack Black crystals rise, King Sombra joins the battle on the shore And Tirek's wrath pushed every single soul to begin the war Even Celestia and Luna cannot help to figure out what's going on in this eternal madness The only one who is responsible for time is disappearing with her world in ethereal blackness "Your magic of friendship has revealed something unknown Ever since we exist we didn't know we were on our own" "No! Stop coming back! You see what you've done! The time is collapsing on us! Now our home was destroyed, But we must stay strong and keep the things under focus! We've always acted alone! We've always been alone! This is the problem you've created - Descending of our world, And now we need to keep the present, future and past separated" "What..?! It's not coming from here... Our kingdom... No... No!.." "We didn't realize... This was not supposed to go this fast..!" "Nothing separates Equestria from our world now... And if we continue like this, there will be only oblivion!.."

I woke up in a cold and dark place surrounded by misty emptiness. Weakened and scared I went further and further until I've found this place. A big old tower made of stone and wood. The door wasn't locked so I came in. What I saw next had amazed and impressed me so much, I couldn't say a word. Embraced and surrounded by darkness of the night Stone cold old tower with secrets inside Blinded by a gleaming staircase to the top I was running and running, not going to stop The shadow - in a moment he was gone Black alicorn - I know what he's done The prisoner was crying over my head I had to save her before she was dead Climbing and climbing Breathing deeper and deeper Higher and higher Light up my steps Running and running Strings illuminating Praying and whispering Calling by name Once you stepped into this world You became my prisoner And all your dreams have turned to dust You're a helpless creature And all your visions disappear Left with a bitter taste of loss You'll forever be stuck with me In the tower of endlessness I couldn't believe my eyes. It was a black alicorn, he was standing right there, staring at me with its evil eyes. And it spoke to me with its raspy voice. "I was waiting for you, and now you're finally here. You have something that belongs to me. And with this thing I'll become almighty and invincible. Give it to me, or you'll die in suffering” Climbing, climbing I need to save her I will never Surrender to him Running, running Fireflies illuminating On my way, I'm crying and Calling her name The light has blinded my eyes Its voice so disgusting and my hope slowly dies Her screams in my head were so loud I need to resist him and find a way out Once you stepped into this world You became my prisoner And all your dreams have turned to dust You're a helpless creature And all your visions disappear Left with a bitter taste of loss You'll forever be stuck with me In the tower of endlessness

Selena 04:48
When sun disappears and we witness the fading of light We whisper her name and we welcome the mistress of night The dreams we are facing brought by our princess tonight The candlelight softly embraces the darkness inside Once the daylight's gone, comes my night adventure She draws surreal landscapes Bringing joyful dreams from my dimension And sometimes nightmares I can't escape She's leaving signs for me, but I feel like blinded By her dark blue shimmering mane I must stay sincere and open minded Believing in dreams I'm going insane I'm your loyal devotee with wounded heart I will face my darkest fears and tear them apart Your moon shines in winter sky so calm and bright I sing this song for you tonight Fill my heart with desire Lift me up and take me higher Give me strength to overcome my fears Embrace my mind then purify and watch my dreams go by Once I close my eyes, everything is fading Body's gone and so is my mind And then the ghosts are slowly invading The past I cannot leave behind She's taking me to the world of perfection Where I'm finding a part of my soul Just like staring at my own reflection In this theatre of moon I play my role Deep inside of her subconsciousness Lies the truth about the nature of dreams And when she leads me through the open door I'm not afraid anymore I'm your loyal devotee with wounded heart I will face my darkest fears and tear them apart Your moon shines in winter sky so calm and bright I sing this song for you tonight When sun disappears and we witness the fading of light We whisper her name and we welcome the mistress of night The dreams we are facing brought by our princess tonight The candlelight softly embraces the darkness inside Fill my heart with desire Lift me up and take me higher Give me strength to overcome my fears Embrace my mind then purify and watch my dreams go by Moonlight's gone but still I'm dreaming From that nightmare I am screaming Give me strength to resurrect my soul Embrace my mind then purify and watch the world goes by
