I. Eruption



Instrumental



II. Stones of Years



Has the dawn ever seen your eyes?

Have the days made you so unwise?

Realise you are



Had you talked to the winds of time

Then you'd know how the waters rhyme

Taste of wine



How can you know where you've been?

In time you'll see the sign

And realise your sin



Will you know how the seed is sown?

All your time has been overgrown

Never known



Have you walked on the stones of years?

When you speak, is it you that hears?

Are your ears full?



You can't hear anything at all



III. Iconoclast



Instrumental



IV. Mass



The 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?

The weaver in the web that he made



The pilgrim wandered in

Committing every sin that he could

So good



The cardinal of grief

Was set in his belief he'd be saved

From the grave

The weaver in the web that he made



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

The weaver in the web that he made



A bishops 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

The weaver in the web that he made



V. Manticore



Instrumental



VI. The Battlefield



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?



Were you there to watch the earth be scorched?

Did you stand beside the spectral torch?

Know the leaves of sorrow turned their face

Scattered on the ashes of disgrace



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



VII. Aquatarkus
