1.	RELEASE THE NIGHT 04:27	lyrics	buy track
Far from now in ancient times Eternal daylight ruling the skies Imagine life without its beauty sleep Because night was hidden under the river Under the watch of its Lord The night was safe below us all From distance one could hear him say The day had come to give it away Three were the chosen to keep it safe Inside a seed that should never break But curiosity covered their minds The sounds of the night lured them To find out what was inside They just released the night Darkness took over the skies Then she had to make a sacrifice She tore the skies apart Her groom became the morning star She must cease the day to bring the dark
2.	LADY MOON 04:45	lyrics	buy track
Dark were the nights Absence of light Not a single star filling the sky Men were too scared to leave their houses By the Fire There was a girl Whose skin was so bright She walked through the night By the riverside Fearless she said Night wasn’t scary at all Creatures of night Fly me away from here Where evil can’t make me no harm Hatred and spite Grew deep inside Of another girl From the same tribe Whose eyes were so dark And so was her heart So envious, dangerous For evil’s sake She made a deal With a poisonous snake That happily would make The shiny girl’s light Fade in the night So, she won’t glow anymore Creatures of night Fly me away from here Where evil can’t make me no harm Get me to the clouds Where my tears gonna shine Light the sky and clear the night She flew away to rest in peace (Away from sorrow to be free) She flew out of evil Up high with her wings of freedom Above the clouds she fought her fears (Shiny stars came from her tears) Lighting the way for you Now she burns bright Lady Moon
3.	THE CURSE OF RIVER’S LORD PT. 1 03:28	lyrics	buy track
Can’t you see the fire in his eyes? And feel the evil in his heart His scream can shake the endless sky His bite can tear the world apart His skin reflected the moonlight When lady Moon rose in the sky He’s always on the riverside Waiting for someone to defy We are going to the riverside Get our vengeance, make him cry United we can stand a fight He’ll be distracted with his wife Ask our best warriors to come by To join us on the riverside Beware, but be prepared to die Vengeance will happen tonight Now we will see who owns the night We’ll kill you We’ll fight with fire and crush his bones Hide in the shadows of the stones Try not to look him in the eye He’ll cast a spell and then goodbye Alert the bowmen on our side Take him and not his wife Draw your spears and then attack Make the river’s lord drop dead
4.	THE CURSE OF RIVER’S LORD PT. 2 03:26	lyrics	buy track
So the warrior cried blood In regret of what he’d done Then he knew that river's lord owns the night And when time kills her again There's no fight nowhere to hide Years later he'll come back for his wife One hundred years have passed Since the last time Here it comes again Shaman warned the tribe Let her know it's time to go Once again, you'll see his eyes All your memories will arise Darling you don't have to cry Say good bye You always felt inside your soul You were from a different world It's something you cannot ward off The curse of river's lord
5.	PRIMAL CLASH 05:50	lyrics	buy track
Her blood was cursed by river’s lord An ancient bloody battle A fateful sin he could not ignore One hundred years have gone by fast She could feel he was coming Unconscious love she felt at last She's carrying seeds from river's lord Two dreadful beings are coming They are a price she can't afford For how long she’ll be blinded by fear? Carrying a heavy burden Deciding if they die or live, but Primal forces Clashes by the riverside Two primal forces don’t care who will die The future sight was precise when it said They’re different sides from a same ugly face Heart of stone pure evil Swims alone through the river Hunting sailors one by one Sinking boats just for fun Crazy goddess of mischief Enjoys all her evil deeds With her magic, strength and power Misguides ships towards the fire But she has a good counterpart Kindness and love to fulfill an empty heart Calm is his soul, brighter than gold But he has been blamed for the sins from his evil twin No more crying, no more hate He must satisfy his fate Wash his sister’s sins away His own blood he must betray Primal forces Clashes by the riverside Two primal forces don’t care who will die The future sight was precise when it said They’re different sides from a same ugly face
6.	UP ON THE HILLS 04:51	lyrics	buy track
I must hurry up Must conclude the hunt I must gather with my folks Before nightfall Village's right ahead Almost getting there I can feel the cool breeze And the magic in the air The giants will guide Just follow their song It feels so alive I’m singing along My soul wants to rise Like never before There's a place I should go Not far from home Now the hunt is done And the fire's on Everything will be prepared Like in times long gone When the day is over And the spell is on I can feel my soul transcending To the twilight zone The women arrived They are singing their song It feels so alive I’m singing along My soul starts to rise Like never before Now I know that The burn of the drums has begun (Up on the hills) I feel the fire burning Inside my heart Turn pain into ashes (Up on the hills) My soul was yearning I felt inside It burns my sins away
7.	LORD OF THE RAIN 04:43	lyrics	buy track
One hundred warriors's fingers and toes Are not enough to show How many Moons ago Happened what I am about to tell you There were creatures in the river Men made them their ride Then they flee and fly away Found their freedom in the sky Desperation spread throughout the Earth Women kept from giving birth People starved to death Mankind was coming to an end A man with bow and arrow Looked for answers in the sky Humbled he went high Climbed up mountains to the sky Thunders came out from his roar Lord of the lightning bolt Tears felt on the land Making rocks turn into sand Human race will rise once again Thanks to the lord of the rain
8.	WAR OF VENDETTA 04:20	lyrics	buy track
Prepare for battle They want us dead They won't forget it We took their land A long time ago A story wrought from woe Our honor was paid in blood Tonight, we strive More than before They won't survive The tribal war A long time ago A story wrought from woe Our honor was paid in blood Follow my command United we will stand They will bow before us once again (Fight) War of Vendetta is rising Arrows shot faster than lightning None of the foes shall remain (Fight) Ancient spirits arising After blood took the horizon We shall taste their flesh once again Their souls will be drained
9.	HUMMINGBIRD 04:32	lyrics	buy track
Spring nights are telling me Hummingbird is up in the sky With its wings of guidance My guts are telling me I should follow the sign From the wings of fire Now I know time has come Spring nights are telling me Hummingbird is up in the sky With its wings of guidance Now I know time has come Now I know time is right So guide me with your light I got astray Lost in the cold Give me your wings of light Hummingbird Lead me the way Get me to the flow Beyond the final light Hummingbird Show me the way Where I should go I look and there you are sign of the cross Show me the way Where I should go With your never-ending light Hummingbird
