Rhapsody of Fire
Tales of a Hero’s Fate
[Intro]
Kreel, Vis, Res, Anime
Ego te absolvo, et anima libera (Est)
Ignis et sanguis in tenebris vivit lux

[Verse 1]
I am digging in my dark old memories
Sometimes I think it's too late to redeem my soul
Pain and pleasure seem like one damn thing
I can't control my instincts, I want more and more
I am lost

[Chorus]
Nightmares from my past
This suffering came from the conscience
There's no escape from your penance
The tales of a hero's fate
It's hard to get over the mind fields
You can't control inner instincts

[Verse 2]
Tales of a life full of blood and mistakes
This hero you see is a mask on my face
Shameless hiding
The scars have now taken the place
[Chorus]
There's no gain, just hate
This suffering came from the conscience
There's no escape from your penance
The tales of a hero's fate
It's hard to get over mind fields
You can't control inner instincts

[Refrain]
Vividi sogni di oscure realtà
Mercy and agony, two halves, one burning soul
Hell walks beside me while Heaven sends his calling

[Verse 3]
The truth is so scary, mean, cold, and rough
Oh God please forgive me, I did it for love
Save my soul, you omniscient
You know I saved my dove

[Chorus]
There's no gain, just hate
This suffering came from the conscience
There's no escape from your penance
The tales of a hero's fate
It's hard to get over mind fields
You can't control inner instincts
[Refrain]
Vividi sogni di oscure realtà
Mercy and agony, two halves, one burning soul
Hell walks beside me while Heaven sends his calling

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Why am I here? Oh, what does this mean?
There's nothing right, there's nothing wrong
I'll live forever damned
The tales of a hero's fate

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
Vividi sogni di oscure realtà
Mercy and agony, two halves, one burning soul
Hell walks beside me while Heaven sends his calling
Ego te absolvo, et anima libera (Est)
Ignis et sanguis in tenebris vivit lux

[Interlude]
In ages past, the Nephilim Empire ruled the Earth, but they fell from grace. Once their slaves, humanity rose up and defeated their gods. The Nephilim were purged from the Earth and banished to the darkness. For centuries, they watched and waited. The Nephilim Empire would one day rise again. And when they rose from the ashes, they formed an alliance with a highly-evolved race known as the Konstrukts. Together they wiped out every last remnant of homo sapiens DNA. Despite the genocide, the dream of humanity would rise again. Time flows like a river, but there are many streams. The end of flesh is come before me, for the Empire is filled with violence and hatred. Behold, I will destroy the Empire and those within. I am become death, the destroyer of worlds

[Outro]
