Music by Alberto & Edu ; Lyrics by Edu & Alberto They dance at night around the fire The moon is high, hearts burn with desire Lusting for love that gets them higher Their only sin, they will face the pyre Inquisitors Enacting God through pain and torture You shall obey As the mark glows fiercely, deep from within hell Born to fear God Heretics must go We must purge the lust in their eyes Sins purified As we feed their souls to the holy one Born to fear God Fire! The sinners are begging for mercy They know they’re gonna die Fire! Taking eternity for granted The judgement was a lie (Solo Alberto) The priests are blind Hate is the fog that clouds their minds In the name of God They teach about love but through evil are reborn Born to fear God Fire! The sinners are begging for mercy They know they’re gonna die Fire! Taking eternity for granted The judgement was a lie (Solo Edu) Fire! The sinners are begging for mercy They know they’re gonna die Fire! Taking eternity for granted The judgement was a lie Oh lord have mercy With our lips on the ground we beg you please Don’t spread your wings.

Music & Lyrics by Edu From the heavens The plagues are falling one by one They beg forgiveness for their sins The blood has been spilled No place on Earth remains clean Heroes are killers from the other side Hell on earth is what we see It came from within Flames will free your soul And from the ashes then you’ll be reborn Dying from hunger The world was green but it’s been reaped The body rots and so does your soul They are the riders Riders of the storm Riders The riders of the storm You, king of all kings are riding next to them a ray of light amidst the sky Famine and hunger and death and war Are thrusting their swords to kill us all But hope we’ll be our shield for their attack Man made horrors have been sacralized (Solo Edu) (Solo Alberto) (Solo Edu) (Solo Alberto) Death is coming The plagues have fallen from the skies If not, how could a brother kill his own kind? They are the riders Riders of the storm Riders The Riders of the storm Riders

Music & Lyrics by Edu I’ve died in silence I’ve died at night Eyes closed forever I see the light Heaven awaits, they know my fate Golden doors, earthly pain is lost Now I can see it, white clouds above the sky The promise was real but something isn’t right Heaven divided, here there are two kinds of man Some are free and some carry out God’s plan Some don’t know what’s going on below It is forbidden Judges taking care of what humans do Cause it is the heaven’s (heaven’s) judgement Purgatory on earth Heaven’s (heaven’s) judgement Seeing all your deeds They all control our final fate Ones will be doomed, others will ascend In the end we’ll all end up the same way But they reign over what happens after death (Solo Edu) I’ve died in silence I’ve died at night Eyes closed forever I see the light Heaven awaits, they know my fate Golden doors, earthly pain is lost But it isn’t what it seems What they call God really doesn’t exist The judges are the ones who rule And we the rest can’t think or rebel But not everything is that bad Her eyes are the reason I keep fighting so much But here in heaven, love is a forbidden act You can only love God, the father of us all Some don’t know what’s going on below It is forbidden Judges taking care of what humans do Cause it’s the heaven’s (heaven’s) judgement Purgatory on earth Heaven’s (heaven’s) judgement Seeing all your deeds

Astral Queen 04:14
Music by Edu & Jose ; Lyrics by Edu Our love was not allowed to exist in this world So I take the promotion to be ruler to the world below I have to say goodbye Before your tears fall in front of me It’s better this way Astral queen, back in the shadows again Astral queen, she’ll never turn back She is my astral queen Now I’ve discovered there’s a rank above judge They call them watchers and they live in the human world As if they were normal lifes They guard all what humans do They have permission to love Astral queen, back in the shadows again Astral queen, she’ll never turn back She is my astral queen (Solo Edu) But the true nature of the watchers is not what it seems They encourage hate among men The heavens are overcrowded, so they have an evil plan To send them all to hell I need to tell her this, we can’t go the underworld One should not hate millions to love only one She couldn’t believe me When i said it, she looked as I were mad Now she says her last goodbye Astral queen, back in the shadows again Astral queen, she’ll never turn back She is my astral queen

Fallen Angel 04:44
Music & Lyrics by Edu I’m walking alone Through the very depths of Hell Dark dust fills my eyes, as the hellion winds are blowing Condemned to the eternal fires Punished for telling the truth That evil lies above My existence has been cursed I’ve betrayed the holy one I’m the fallen angel He’s in his throne With red eyes and black horns Servant of God, tormenting his prisoners King of nothing but hate Punished for telling the truth That evil lies above My existence has been cursed I’ve betrayed the holy one I’m the fallen angel Fallen from the skies I’m the fallen angel Can you hear my cries Nothing to keep living for Only fire, chains and mourns Eternal life in anguish and grief Victims of the ancient war Exiled to cover their lies To a world full of gloomy fog Where people like me rejoice in their cries (Solo Edu) I’m the fallen angel Fallen from the skies I’m the fallen angel Can you hear my cries I’m the fallen angel Fallen from the skies I’m the fallen angel Can you hear my cries

Vendetta 06:18
Music & Lyrics by Edu Thirty years have passed since you took it all away from me Now I live in the shadows where no one can see me All my life was turn to dust in the blink of an eye But the time has come for me to arise The hour of fate It’s running through my veins All of this hate For you it’s too late The hour of fate I’m gonna break this chains And let flow the hate For you it’s too late I could see how the envy corrupted your eyes You wanted my life but you couldn’t have it So you decided that if it is not yours Then it will not be for anybody Vendetta! It’s calling your name Vendetta! Is the only way Vendetta! We got to fight back Vendetta! Attack! (Solo Edu) I have been afraid for years of doing what I must But there’s nothing to fear when everything’s lost Now you’re gonna get what you deserve As I enjoy my sweet revenge The hour of fate It’s running through my veins All of this hate For you it’s too late The hour of fate I’m gonna break this chains And let flow the hate For you it’s too late Now you can’t escape nor hide from me Your life’s in my hands, this is your end You cry in pain begging for mercy But was there any mercy for me? Vendetta! It’s calling your name Vendetta! Is the only way Vendetta! We got to fight back Vendetta! Attack! This is how it should be An eye for an eye Balance has been restored With your evil blood This is how it should be An eye for an eye Balance has been restored With your evil blood

Music & Lyrics by Edu As i gaze into the stars I see echoes from the past Shattered dreams within my hands Falling tears sow the land We spent our youths miles away from home shedding blood like we had the right to do so every night we saw the stars hoping for a better world as we died, our dreams turned to dust Only myself in front of the universe The shining lights that have always lighted my way they are the sole witness of my pain all that is left from those distant days Please carry me home (Solo Edu) I went with friends but (I) have returned alone Just like them, their dreams were left to rot People may say I’ve survived hell on earth The truth is my soul was buried along them Only myself in front of the universe The shining lights that have always lighted my way they are the sole witness of my pain all that is left from those distant days Only the stars are left

Music by Edu ; Lyrics by Jose The earth is lost and we await their arrival No time to waste in this world of betrayal The four horsemen will soon be reaping our souls All of our mistakes will be condemned There’s no mercy for the God's deniers We should know that the judgment day's closer than we think Black clouds are covering the sky There's no turn back, nowhere to hide And when the Lamb opened the seventh seal A terrifying silence we could feel Forgive me Father because I have sinned I know my soul in heaven will be redeemed (Solo Edu) Now it's too late, the judgment has began All of our dreams will be turned into dust I hear the chime that awakes the fury of God One by one, killed with no mercy All of us sinners doomed for our crimes That's his will and will be the ending of our time Black clouds are covering the sky There's no turn back, nowhere to hide And when the Lamb opened the seventh seal A terrifying silence we could feel Forgive me Father because I have sinned I know my soul in heaven will be redeemed

Music by Jose & Manu ; Lyrics by Manu & Edu "Long time ago, in the land of the rising sun, the emperor was murdered by his evil nephew, who lead the kingdom into a new age of terror. The resistance to the new order has fallen, and Ryosuke Taiwara, the last samurai faithful to the old regime, is his last obstacle" One by one Everyone shall fall Now people will bow to the reign of blood And Ryosuke is holding in his hands the ashes of a world that has come to its end The soldiers looked for him but nothing they found they visited his family to give him a warn (You) New ronin (Should run) from the law (And hide) (Ryosuke Taiwara) (Fight) For honor (Bring Down) False emperor (Our pride) (Riosuke Taiwara) His wife was raped and killed His daughter was enslaved The usurper wants blood and Ryosuke is his prey For those who help him the gallow is their fate Too much blood spilled so Ryosuke gives himself They took an arm and eye and beat him to death Now say your prayers cause this will be your grave (Left) for the vultures (To die) without honor (No hope) (Ryosuke Taiwara) (Rise) But ryosuke (And fight) Is not finished yet (The Revenge) (Of Ryosuke Taiwara) (Solo Edu) (Now) at the palace (They’ll fight) for their lifes (Till death) Steel and honor Only one will rise (Roar) Of katanas (Cold Death) On their blades (Blood flows) The hero´s hurt But the usurper’s the one who fades (Peace) now restored (At last) Japan is safe (All praise) All praise (Ryosuke Taiwara) "In the end, Ryosuke releases his daughter, who will carry on the Taiwara´s legacy, bringing balance, joy and peace to the land of the sea, the fire and the steel: the Land Of the Rising Sun.
