Little Alice strayed from her world
Deceived by a lie, into a path with no return
A promise, the black book had told
Eternity, is what she aimed for
Oh, such strange wonders are what I see!
The gate once opened, now closed has welcomed me
Is this a mirage or fever dream?
Oaken trees now surround me
I'm falling deeper in
Toxic spores dance in the air
The darkness glares with vile intent
I hold my breath as I push on
I hold no fear for this poison
So many nights I've spent without sleep
I seek the power, it beckons me
Monstrous mushrooms block my path
I shall obtain that which is mine
My conscience lured in by the call
Of the black book that I must find
I've seen it before in my dreams
The words within, oh, so tempting
The end of my humanity
Eternal life is what I seek
The magic that lays deep within
Will save me from eternal sleep
I'll cut the puppet strings of all
The maggots that roam inside me
The Grimoire now floats before me
Its power is pulling me in
I tremble as I take it in
Now the ultimate power is mine!
These wonders, these wonders. They belong to me!
Oh, Alice can't you see?
These wonders are not meant for mortals to see
Take heed of my call
There is no returning from this path you seek
Your 'eternity'
Will come at the cost of your humanity
Don't fall down the hole
The power you crave for will not make you whole
This is a gateway to all my dreams
It's pulling at my soul from the seams
Eternity's in my grasp
I shall take on the task
To rid myself of earthly impurity
Oh, dear Alice...The mad hatter is waiting...
Oh, Alice can't you see?
These wonders are not meant for mortals to see
Take heed of my call
There is no returning from this path you seek
Your 'eternity'
Will come at the cost of your humanity
Don't fall down the hole
The power you crave for will not make you whole
And so, the void consumed her soul
Her own humanity given away as toll
The tale concluded, as had been foretold
What has been lost
Shall not be regained
Nevermore
These wonders, these wonders. They belong to me!
Oh, Alice can't you see?
These wonders are not meant for mortals to see
Take heed of my call
There is no returning from this path you seek
Your 'eternity'
Will come at the cost of your humanity
Don't fall down the hole
The power you crave for will not make you whole!

自由くれた
君の魔法
今も糸でココロ縛る
空っぽの胸が痛い
痛いよ
I still have something I don't know.
Is my intention based on freedom of mind?
You solved me.
But was it true freedom?
There's no value in the place you're not.
Anywhere but nowhere.
Wherever I went, I couldn't go anywhere.
Call my name until it can be heard.
I need nothing anymore.
Because I can’t hold anymore.
笑顔くれた
君の魔法
今も糸でカラダ縛る
空白の胸が痛い
痛いよ
どこへだって行けるのに
隣にいない 君想う
物言わない人形のよう
If you lie, your nose will grow.
Just kidding.
Fuckin' impossible.
I'm injured if I wear glass shoes.
I don't want to kiss the beast or frog.
Mermaids are just fish.
Where is the production area of the apples?
I became fearful of believing in anything.
You're caught up in fiction and don't look at it.
You have to face the reality even if it's too painful now
光くれた
君の魔法
今も糸でココロ縛る
偽りの胸が痛い
痛いよ
人の形を真似てただけの
私は今も
鳥籠に
囚われた人形のよう

High upon the peak
Rests a shrine chained between two worlds
Where wayward souls return to form
And a young maiden refers to home
Generations
Of protectors have graced this land
Each left their mark before their ends
Forgotten to time
Farewell
[Subchorus]
Once beyond
The boundary between our dreams
Reality..
Melts into..
Fantasy..
Wander..
Through a land that can't be seen
Again..
[Chorus]
Embrace
The sky
To face death in the night
Demons
At play
Will face the light
We’ll carry on
Through darkened days
And rise again
To pass the flame
[Main Verse]
From embers
Forged by threads of fate
Gives way to the dawn of a new age
Led by the maiden made of dreams
Vessel of the gods
Donning the burdens of this world
Brings peace across the eastern winds
In red and white
(With pride!)
[Akemi - Subchorus - 2:18]
Once beyond
The boundary between our dreams
Reality..
Melts into..
Fantasy..
Wander..
Through a land that can't be seen
Again..
[Chorus]
Embrace
The sky
To face death in the night
Demons
At play
Will face the light
We’ll carry on
Through darkened days
And rise again
To pass the flame
[Alternate Bridge - 3:34]
Oh
Life tends to slip away
(Life tends to slip away)
Oh
Will my fate be the same?
(Will my fate be the same as…)
Feel the weight
Of everything
Melt away
In an instant all of time stands still
Deep within my soul
I am
infinite
Be one with the flow of fantasy
[Realmweaver - solo]
[Final Chorus]
Through each life
Sanctified
Bore the weight of countless lives
Held their hearts
In their hands
To carry the torch
We’ll carry on
Through darkened days
And rise again
To pass the flame
[Encore]
Now the hands of time spin once again
To live, to die, to join the Eastern wind
I’ll carry on
Through darkened days
And rise again
To be the flame

Forgo thy flesh
Submit your soul
Lay bare your insides
for this blood oath
Eternity
has never felt..
So CLOSE
Behold thy truth
Unveil your sight
Seek the void through my hymns tonight
Immortalized
through viscera
I'll cloak the world
Forevermore
--------
Now dawns the last day of your lives
Repent in your gluttony
Renounce your pride
Now farewell to all of mankind
Your sins
endowed
Your fate
is mine
--------
Forgo Your Flesh
Forgo thy Soul
Forgo yourself to me,
Every ounce of your blood
Every morsel
Every moment
Every breath that you took
Mine. Forever.
Repentance Denied.
I’ll gorge on your essence
And make this world mine
--------
And so as our priestess treads deeper into the jaws of darkness
An overbearing presence suffocates the air around her
For the ruins within this demonic sanctum offers only the taste..
of death
[Subchorus]
The skies have fallen
And hell hath unleashed
A moment of ethereal bliss
Now beckons me
To seek out
The end of your line
This kinship of maidens
Defies the divine
[Chorus Version 1]
"Now until the light leaves your eyes
I'll rip out your innards
and tear out your spine
To witness the end
blessed by these devout hands
Is a fate most sacred
Now until the moment you die
To bathe in thine blood
Your soul sanctified
Holy retribution
Sinful execution
Find peace in your virtuous demise"
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Repent
(((SA-CRI-FICE)))
(((SO-DO-MIZE)))
Desecrate
All that lives
All that breathe
All who fear
Left to rot
In their filth
In their fates
In the truth
Now dawns the last day of your life
Repent in your gluttony
Renounce your pride
Now farewell to all of mankind
NOW
UNTIL THE MOMENT WE DIE
Farewell to your last memories
And farewell to earthly ties
All returns to nothing
As we embrace that faint light
That frees us from mortal coil
And bestows our demise
—solo—
Soaked in the blood of her kind
Her very essence is at the mercy of the Angel of Death
However, our lone shrine maiden still stands..
Undeterred
[Subchorus]
The skies have fallen
And hell hath unleashed
A moment of ethereal bliss
Now beckons me
To seek out
The end of your line
Mother
Bear witness!
[Chorus Version 2]
"Now until the light leaves your eyes
I'll rip out your innards
and tear out your spine
To witness the end
blessed by these devout hands
Is a fate most sacred
Now until the moment I dier
To bathe in thine blood
My soul sanctified
Holy retribution
Sinful execution
Find peace in your virtuous demise"

I fear this world descends far from reality
Drenched in the horrors of fantasy
Take heed my friend for your death is not but a dream
Lingering spectre, a faint memory
Lost to times long forgotten
your fate is left to chance
Our souls are torn apart
Split between worlds
Our souls are torn apart
Beyond our reach
Our souls are torn apart
Within our hearts
Our souls are torn apart
in black and white..
Welcome your Bleeding Daydream
Another Fading Fantasy
Last chance to roll the dice
or face your death on this cruel night
Take heed my friend for your life is not what it seems
Lured to sleep, your mind has drifted
into a place between boundaries
Our souls are torn apart
Split between worlds
Our souls are torn apart
Beyond our reach
Our souls are torn apart
Within our hearts
Our souls are torn apart
in black and white..
Her scythe kissed
the nape of my neck
My last moment veiled in truth
[Solo - Plagueling Nagatomo]
Transcend these memories
Destiny has begun
Our souls are torn apart
Split between worlds
Our souls are torn apart
Beyond our reach
Our souls are torn apart
Within our hearts
Our souls are torn apart
in black and white..
Welcome your Bleeding Daydream
Another Fading Fantasy
Bleeding
Bleeding
Bleeding Daydream
Bleeding
Bleeding
Bleeding Daydream

Out of my way
Each time's always the same
Get out of my way
It's always the same
No time for your childish games
Just take your stuff and go
One day you will learn
The world does not revolve around you
You're always nosy
Always getting in the way
Go away, uncool shrine maiden
Find somewhere to pray
Falling petals scatter down our path
As we're trapped in this chaotic dance
Like two lilies in the water
Competing for sunlight
Oh, dear friend
Alas, we must clash
Our feelings become stardust
Please know, I may hurt you
But I won't resent you
I am tired of you
You're not my friend
Stop fighting now, my friend, or we'll say some things we'll regret
I'll make you understand the duty that I must bear
You will not stop me now
My business here is only mine
If you're my real friend
You will turn back
Let me fly
"You always love to make things difficult, don't you?"
"Ugh, you're so annoying!"
"I'm trying to do my job here!"
"Well, maybe, you'd do a good one for once if you stopped bothering me!"
"Oh, I don't need job advice from a freaking thief!"
"What you need is to mind your own damn business!"
"You are so insufferable!
You're childish, selfish and disrespectful!"
"And you're a stuck-up, lazy shrine maiden with a stick up her arse!"
"Bold words coming from an 'Ordinary Magician.'"
"That's it! Eat my danmaku you little trash!"
"I am so tired of you!
You're such a nuisance!"
"I hate you! You always ruin everything!"
"I do it because I'm your friend!"
"Then I guess I don't need friends like you! I wish we'd never met."
"..."
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean that."
"It's fine. We did get a little carried away, didn't we?
Sorry about all those things I said back then"
"Friends?"
"Friends"
Falling petals scatter down our path
As we're trapped in this chaotic dance
Like two lilies in the water
Competing for sunlight
Oh, dear friend
Alas, we must clash
(We must clash)
Our feelings become stardust
(I know I will not resent you)
Please know, I may hurt you
(I'll never hurt you!)
But I won't resent you
Deep in your heart
You know that I'll always be there for you
Right beside you if you were to fall
We may have our differences now and then, but we are both the same
I'm proud to be your friend!

I am tormented by the thought
My mind leads to nowhere
All our words are pointless now
I'll forget your name
Faceless shades
They all fade away
Into obscurity
Wandering souls
They crawl
Under a black sky
Caged by walls of white
I loathe the endless silence
Haunted by countless false realities
That roam inside my head
Memories
Fading away
Lies from birth
They decay
Darkness rules my life
It wears the crown of madness
Engulfing everything I have
My spirit turns to white
Do I know you?
Were we close at all?
Spiraling in doubt
I drown in insecurity
Your voice is calling out to me
But I've forgotten everything again
Haunted by voices in my head
The mask begins to break
Tabula Rasa
Is what I am
I fear I've gone insane

And from nothing
I was born
A mere concept
Now cursed with a form
Seeking purpose
In my solus
I found solace through the birthing of light
And with patience
Came the stars
One by one
I filled up this cosmos to mend my heart
Eons gone by
Ages have past
Through my own eyes
I’ve made this world vast
It is through my will
That I’ve spread my life
Unto everything
Forever
Infinite forms
Endlessly stretching
Across time and space
Ceaselessly merging
Into consciousness
Grasping for something
A single purpose
All desperately seeking
A means to an end
To justify living
So all may ascend
To their personal Edens
Transcending their sins
Countlessly weighing
Deeper unto them
Such is existence
My children
Slaughtered at their whim
Torn apart and eviscerated
Flesh ripped from their bones
Seraphim
Devout angel of death
Bring about the extinction
Of this line of kin
Corpses
Of all that I’ve made
Nothing but husks
Of what once was alive
((I WILL CONSUME EVERYTHING))
In my hate
In my sorrow
In vain
I will consume everything
Fractured
are the ties that held this world from my own
Shining
through it’s cracks gives way for malice to take form
Pulsing
to the beat of my bleeding heart
Festering
Deep inside
Is the pain
For my kind
I renounce
Humankind
From the light
Malediction
And so it shall be..
Beneath this veil
Of all of my hatred
Remains a small speck
Of my inner nature
Reflecting the self
Of which I've forgotten
Coveting this warmth
An infinite longing
For a means to an end
To justify living
A god amongst man
Yet still solemnly grieving
For all I create
Has met with the void
Shedding their blood
For a world that's devoid
Of light
And from nowhere
I am here
Standing atop the remains
of these nightmares
Seeking succor
In my suffering
I found silence
I found nothing
And so I remain..
Dragged from the cosmos and forced into birthright
Flesh stripped from magic adorns their new form
Each chrysalis demonic, this realm forever tainted
With a lust for power, a relentless avarice
My light
Beckons dimensions
Rewrites the void
Recalls the heavens
Imitating the essence
Of what’s just not there
Paradise
In the darkness
Our abyss
Oblivion
At our fingertips
No beginning
No end
(feat. Nocturne)
Infinite forms
Endlessly stretching
Across time and space
Ceaselessly merging
Into consciousness
Grasping for something
A single purpose
All desperately seeking
A means to an end
To justify living
So all may ascend
To their personal Edens
Transcending their sins
Countlessly weighing
Deeper unto them
Such is existence
(x2)
Smoldering brimstone blankets the earth
As hellfire rains from the skies
No longer content with the hand I’ve been dealt
I’ll make this world mine
forever
Cut from the heavens
Cast from the void
A maddening revelation
Unveiled
An amalgamation
Of all that’s to come
Of all that shall be
And of all that which was
(((PANDÆMONIUM)))
Consumed by bloodlust
And spiraling madness
Embracing that call for power
Forgoing that light
That which granted her life
Ensuring a means to an end
Life entwined in these hands of fate
Reaping the souls of all which I create
A decadent rapture bestowed in my name
Succumb to the end as we fall from grace
Engulfed in flames I curse your name
Dog of the gods I’ll drag you down with me
This moment eternal..
A final recital..
Forever engraved in the passage of time
And so begins...
THE DAWN OF A NEW AGE
(( t h e d a w n o f a n e w a g e ))
