The Lone Poet's Ballad
05:05
|
|
||
|
Write, erase, rewrite
That's the way it goes
Why we can't rewrite our lives
That's an answer no one kows
LOOK INTO MY EYES WHORE
I WILL TURN YOU INTO POETRY
LET ME HEAR YOUR VOICE THIEF
I WILL MAKE YOU IMMORTAL
My quill draws eternal love and happiness
My mind craves for vast forests
My eyes stare into emptiness
Always wishing me away
But my tiny room will stay my prison
For an untamed heart there is no balm
For a fragile soul there is no space
I will go down by the end of day
OH SHOW ME YOUR EYES WHORE
I WILL MAKE YOU A GORGEOUS MAIDEN
FULL OF LOVE AND FULL OF VIRTUE
FORGET ABOUT YOUR SINS
My ink covers your ugly truth
But inside I know that there is no escape
I create things with a beauty so vast
But for me, in this world, there is no one to hold on to
My quill draws eternal love and happiness
My mind craves for vast forests
My eyes stare into emptiness
Always wishing me away
But my tiny room will stay my prison
For an untamed heart there is no balm
For a fragile soul there is no space
I will go down by the end of day
I AM THE MASTERMIND
YOU WOULD CALL ME MISFIT
I AM THE DREAMER
YOU WOULD CAST ME OUT
My quill draws eternal love and happiness
My mind craves for vast forests
My eyes stare into emptiness
Always wishing me away
But my tiny room will stay my prison
For an untamed heart there is no balm
For a fragile soul there is no space
I will go down by the end of day

Dark Halls of Oblivion
03:57
|
|
||
|
Time passes us by
We're living in a perfect seem
Created by our fearful minds
Taken from a lonely poet's dream
I don't care if it's whispered
If it's screamed or if it's sung
To me it's all the same
Don't let me die without a name
Save me from these dark halls of oblivion
Truly dead is who's forgotten
I just long for a memory
My heritage within a melody
WE'RE ALL JUST DANCERS IN A MAD BALLET
TRYING TO LEAVE A TRACE WITH WHAT WE SAY
I will never fade away
I will face the end wide awake
LIFE IS JUST A MASQUERADE
NEVER COVERING OUR FEAR AND HATE
Tales will live forever
And a tale will I become
Forever I will dream
Never come undone
I don't care if it's whispered
If it's screamed or if it's sung
To me it's all the same
Don't let me die without a name
Save me from these dark halls of oblivion
I don't care if it's whispered
If it's screamed or if it's sung
To me it's all the same
Don't let me die without a name
Save me from these dark halls of oblivion

My Kingdom Come
06:46
|
|
||

Come and kneel before the divine
All the beauty, every word, every note
Is mine
This is the kingdom of your queen uncrowned
The place where soon will fall eternal night
No hope is left in these ruins to be
And all that remains is a scent of blight
I've seen my kingdom come
Now watch it rise and fall
My final play is done
This is my curtain call
There is no last encore
You've seen it all before
No need for one last song
I've seen my kingdom come
Every tender blossom is bound to wither
My stride is unbroken as I pass the gate
The dream I once had has ever since faded
I will not close my eyes as my end awaits
I've seen my kingdom come
Now watch it rise and fall
My final play is done
This is my curtain call
There is no last encore
You've seen it all before
No need for one last song
I've seen my kingdom come
Hope is the torch to light my stake
I've seen my kingdom come
Now watch it rise and fall
My final play is done
This is my curtain call
There is no last encore
You've seen it all before
No need for one last song
I've seen my kingdom come

Majesty of Madness
05:00
|
|
||
|
My return to a land
In which once in you never leave
No longer reason bound
Diving freely into grieve
Dare to enter my realm
Come fly with me on winds of lunacy
Be welcome in this unseen cage
And behold its insane majesty
This majesty of madness so luring
Cascades of tears to escape from this earth
A path to a dream world where my throne is tall
Forever ascending but craving my fall
Unleash the force kept within
Break the chains and give in
The wings to leave reality behind
The final cry of the broken mind
The greatest minds bear deepest shadows
The mighty soul craves the unknown
A poet's heart raging with insanity
Paints a masterpiece of gallantry
This majesty of madness so luring
Cascades of tears to escape from this earth
A path to a dream world where my throne is tall
Forever ascending but craving my fall
(Eternal night)
(No healing light)
(Forever bound)
(No hopeful sound)
This majesty of madness so luring
Cascades of tears to escape from this earth
A path to a dream world where my throne is tall
Forever ascending but craving my fall

Lust for a Tale
04:22
|
|

SLEEP ON, DAMNED ONE
STILL CRAVING FOR A DREAM
FOR HOPE WITHIN A STORY
FROM A WORLD 'TIL NOW UNSEEN
SEARCH ON, WEAK ONE
BUY A TALE THAT IS NOT YOURS
WHAT'S YOUR PRICE FOR A FANTASY
WHAT'S YOUR PRICE TO FINALLY SEE
Yours is a life without wonder
A NIGHT WITHOUT A GOLDEN DAWN
All you see is black and white
A REALM OF DREAMS FORLORN
And all that remains is the lust for a tale
YOU MISS THE COLOURS OF THE WORLD
YET HAVE NEVER PAINTED IN YOUR OWN
WAITING FOR THE WORLD TO BRING YOU LIFE
EVER SINCE YOU'VE MISSED TO LIVE
Hold your breath and close your eyes
Ponder what a tale is worth
Your last dime for the ferry man
Or for one last dream on earth
Yours is a life without wonder
A NIGHT WITHOUT A GOLDEN DAWN
All you see is black and white
A REALM OF DREAMS FORLORN
Yours is a life without wonder
A NIGHT WITHOUT A GOLDEN DAWN
All you see is black and white
A REALM OF DREAMS FORLORN
And all that remains is the lust for a tale
Come to life now or you'll wake up to a world
Where every tale is told
And every story's sold

Standing on the Edge
04:38
|
|

Listen to the waves
They are the choir singing
Look at the red moon rising
Burning fire from the sky
I spread my arms awaiting
A fierce wind straight in my face
They say this is the day
Our world will go to sleep
Forevermore
Standing on the edge, I scream out to the night
Where are your storms and holy wrath
No pale riders are in sight
Give me fire, give me waves
To tear this world apart
No holy crushing rage can tame a broken heart
And I search the sky
Where are your angels
With searing swords and burning eyes?
And if the end
Is drawing nigh
Why don't you come
To hear the truth and kill my lies?
Standing on the edge, I scream out to the night
Where are your storms and holy wrath
No pale riders are in sight
Give me fire, give me waves
To tear this world apart
No holy crushing rage can tame a broken heart
Standing on the edge, I scream out to the night
Where are your storms and holy wrath
No pale riders are in sight
Give me fire, give me waves
To tear this world apart
No holy crushing rage can tame a broken heart

My Empty Page
04:54
|
|
||
|
I remember aeons past
And dreams as old as time
A thousand stories live
In these words of mine
Dreamers will be lonely
For once, my dream comes true
You're my cold night fantasy
There's no dream without you
I'm in love with your life
Longing for your tales
Come with me tonight
And fill my empty page
My heart is bleeding ink
My life will soak these pages
Left to tell forever
The tales of coming ages
Once upon a starry night
My own tale came alive
Remember when those fall days sing
A lonely summer night's might
I'm in love with your life
Longing for your tales
Come with me tonight
And fill my empty page
I'm in love with your life
Longing for your tales
Come with me tonight
And fill my empty page
An aeon worth of stories
Is worthless without you
Fill this emptiness within me
And make the all come true
I'm in love with your life
Longing for your tales
Come with me tonight
And fill my empty page
I'm in love with your life
Longing for your tales
Come with me tonight
And fill my empty page

The Wayfarer's Dream
05:30
|
|

Fly away dear lonesome heart
For I seek salvation in the journey
I want to hunt with the wind untamed
The vast is calling my name
There is poetry in everything
And a poet's soul is mine
I want to bathe in beauty
My heart is craving the divine
I want to hear the song of the world
A wolf's howl in the night
The witches dancing in ecstasy
Oden's wrath, Aphrodite's child
A valkyrie's song, solace for the lost
A maze leading nowhere
The world's marvels unseen
The wanderer's lust, the wayfarer's dream
All the world's verses entwine
Within my heart an eternal tale
I want to learn a new song
For every horizon I sail
I miss the colours of the world
Want to breathe the journey
Once more amaze my old heart
I am alive the moment I depart
I want to hear the song of the world
A wolf's howl in the night
The witches dancing in ecstasy
Oden's wrath, Aphrodite's child
A valkyrie's song, solace for the lost
A maze leading nowhere
The world's marvels unseen
The wanderer's lust, the wayfarer's dream
I want to hear the song of the world
A wolf's howl in the night
The witches dancing in ecstasy
Oden's wrath, Aphrodite's child
A valkyrie's song, solace for the lost
A maze leading nowhere
The world's marvels unseen
The wanderer's lust, the wayfarer's dream

Uncrowned

At the threshold of the night
Desolate and colourblind
Hate is knocking down the door
Tempest from a molten core
But when dusk exhales the dark
All my arrows find their mark
Fortune forced the winds to turn
Time to feel the fever burn
(Time to feel it burn)
I may be uncrowned and covered in blood
My eyes have been blinded, my wings have been cut
I may be fallen and gone insane
But here in the wild I still rule the night
I may be uncrowned and covered in blood
My eyes have been blinded, my wings have been cut
I may be fallen and gone insane
But here in the wild I still rule the night
Still rule the night
I accept my fate and what the world forgot
It's alright that you adore
All that I'm not
I am not an Angel
Was not the perfect queen
Now an evil shadow
Is what's left of me
(Is what's left of me)
I may be uncrowned and covered in blood
My eyes have been blinded, my wings have been cut
I may be fallen and gone insane
But here in the wild I still rule the night
I may be uncrowned and covered in blood
My eyes have been blinded, my wings have been cut
I may be fallen and gone insane
But here in the wild I still rule the night
Still rule the night
No merciful heart
No grace left to take
I weep all alone
On my rotten throne
I may be uncrowned and covered in blood
My eyes have been blinded, my wings have been cut
I may be fallen and gone insane
But here in the wild I still rule the night
I may be uncrowned and covered in blood
My eyes have been blinded, my wings have been cut
I may be fallen and gone insane
But here in the wild I still rule the night
Still rule the night

The Memory Remains
08:29
|
|

Dreaming alone I remember
These snow white days of mine
My heart that had no torment met
And that love my sweetest wine
We shared nothing but a story
A dream that was before them all
I dreamt it, but too passionately
Soaring high and bound to fall
Though so many years apart
The memory remains
The first needle to the dreamer's heart
The memory remains
And untouched heart bleeds innocence
And wounded, mine bled crystal clear
Bitter is the first bite of pain
The sweeter are my tears
Though so many years apart
The memory remains
The first needle to the dreamer's heart
The memory remains
LUST WILL MAKE THE ANGES FALL
See your angel fall
PAIN TURN COLD A LOVING HEART
Feel my loving heart
TO HEAL OLD WOUND IS HARD
I will keep the scars
FEAR THE BENIGN THAT GO TO WAR
Take this lenity away from me
Devour my love and suffocate
I never asked to be a saint
Now save me from this hell
Take this lenity away from me
Devour my love and suffocate
I never asked to be a saint
Now save me from this hell
Though so many years apart
The memory remains
The first needle to the dreamer's heart
The memory remains
This untouched soul laid bare
On the altar of virgin love
Come the seasons and their storms
And wear away the bitter scorn
Embrace the scars that life has left
Stories engraved in to our hearts
Time will sometimes part our ways
But still, the memory remains

I long for you
September days so long gone by
With a will so strong and free
And a heart still young and light
The world was wide
And waiting there for me to come
Not knowing of the pain ahead
And the end to all my songs
Silence came with force
And woke a vengeful mind
The moment that a voice turned mute
A graceful heart turned blind
As beauty there in shackles lies
As if in slumber buried deep
I feel the spark of heaven dies
And silently I weep
As beauty there in shackles lies
As if in slumber buried deep
I feel the spark of heaven dies
And silently I weep
And when to heaven high I will depart
I won't forgive, I won't forget
Lord, you don't know what you did
And you don't know what I had
There's a fire deep inside
That no empty words will choke
Why would you ever let me dream
When the cruelest thing down here is hope
As beauty there in shackles lies
As if in slumber buried deep
I feel the spark of heaven dies
And silently I weep
As beauty there in shackles lies
As if in slumber buried deep
I feel the spark of heaven dies
And silently I weep
A great soul lies disgraced
As if raped and stripped of pride
As beauty lies in chains
But this dear heart will abide
And pours blood still through these veins
And I know not all is lost
Although broken I'm not dead
No greater scorn in what's ahead

Lycania Germany
Symphonic Metal from the Rhein-Main area.
The music speaks for itself.
If you like Lycania, you may also like:
supported by 8 fans who also own “My Kingdom Come”
Immediately gave me early Nightwish + Epica vibes! It's like positive, upbeat power metal instead of the typical dark and dreadful (which believe me I love that too, but it's a refreshing change).

As I’ve matured I have learned to appreciate power metal. The sheer symphonic showmanship of the tracks I heard is totally off the charts.
