Alicia Cordisco Fantastically composed epic doom with a really cool medieval flare laced throughout it. Definitely give this one some well deserved attention! Favorite track: The Lunatic Ball.

Chorus For in the dark they will wait (DANCE! DANCE! DANCE! DANCE) The three who will seal our fate (DANCE! DANCE! DANCE! DANCE) Begging to be released (DANCE! DANCE! DANCE! DANCE) Forever! Verse One In the house of Eternal misery Souls will never grow old Forced to dance on eternally No death, no dreams Nothing will remain Your life is sold Into depths of time untold Solo: Delise Verse Two The caw of the raven Echoes endlessly Down these gilded halls Bringing sound to nothing And nothing at all The waltz of death remains And remains forever Forever will be Bridge END I can feel my mind Slowly slip away Truly going mad Truly now insane As we dance forever On into the night Lost amidst eternity Lost in Raven light

Verse One Where will we go, lodged within our hollow shells Our spirit crying out, over and over for release I can sense your pain burn across the nether Driving you insane, pulled on and on by the Raven’s tether Chorus Follow me So that you can see What lies beyond The Gates of Dreams Follow me Allow it to be And I’ll show you night And darkness behind the light Verse Two Why can’t you see that you are dreaming awake Marching forward in life, a pale emanation No passion it seems you will leave the world no trace And when your time has come, you’ll die in pitiless disgrace Solo: Delise Verse Three I swear, I can lead you there, to a world beyond all despair A place beyond all it seems, a place beyond your dreams

Raven's Path 06:29
Verse One See! Now I see them there Standing behind the shadows The starless canopy Occluding my twisted mortal scream They seem to seek The guidance of corvid sight As the Raven flies on On into the deepest night Pre-Chorus Deeper, Darker, Into the night (X2) Chorus Now / Follow me Along / The Raven’s Path I’m damned if I do I’m damned if I don’t There’s no way to turn But I must go Deeper Into the night Verse Two Feel! I feel my hope turn to despair As the forest grows darker Emerging before me The dark rising fortress The house of corvid delight The Raven’s home Its obsidian stone Towering into the night Bridge B Losing now my very grip On reality I step into the corvid light Beckoned deeper into the night Solo: Jones Ending (Round) A – Deeper Darker B – Into the Night C – I must go D – Fading Forever

Verse One Tossing and turning My mind always ablaze With the twin light of day But that dream is no dream The shadows of reality Intrude upon what should be As soon as my head Lay soft upon that bed Thine eyes they seek The horror of that waking Though it happens every day Neither defined by sight Chorus I am the man who never sleeps First to lose it all To gain insanity I am the man Who dreamt it all I am the man who never lived First to gain it all To gain my sanity I am the man Who dreamt it all Verse Two So here lay I Neither lost nor damned Merely cursed to live As if by strange magic My soul be lifted free To dream and dream and dream I squeeze shut thine eyes And pray for release From the blaze of two skies I fear for my sanity As I cling to what is real It’s all so surreal Solo: Delise / Jones / Both Verse Three The sights that I’ve seen I wish I could say Confined to two lives My dreams though are real They encompass each soul I’ve lived millions this way Through the eyes of mankind Every moment I saw There must be an end But the dream just goes on For I have never slept But I have dreamt it all

Verse One The sole wife to Pepin the Short Mother to two powerful sons In the Court of the Franks Two competing rulers Guiding their paths From the shadows Whispers here and whispers there Who speaks whispers in the ear? Pre Chorus Of the eldest son Charles the Great The stronger by far The stage for empire lain Chorus The Queen of the Franks Mother to Charlemagne The Queen of the Franks We won’t forget her name The Queen of the Franks Mother to Charlemagne The Queen of the Franks We won’t forget her name (Betrada of Laon!) Verse Two Now who would dare suspect our lovely queen Such Merovingian guile She plots only with The very best Her desire met in stride always with a smile Pre-Chorus To ensure her favored son Doth ascend the Frankish throne The stronger by far The stage for empire lain Solo: Jones

Chorus Deliver us now this day The shadow looms And spreads decay From whence darkness came Who could know? And who would say? Call upon this darkness We’ll be there We reap dismay From whence darkness came Who could know? And who would say? Bridge A The plight of man Ignored upon the altar From the deep the Raven caws Our strength fades and falters Deep in the starless wood We seek eternal shelter From the deep the Raven caws Our strength fades and falters Solo: Jones Bridge B Is there no relief in this ever waking dream My guilt, my shame, my fate eternally!

Intro Here among the ruins of this once joyful land The mournful cry of ravens stilled by winter’s hand The gentle frozen stream, once had run with blood The blood of living souls, now forever gone Verse One Among this haunted land I will always roam No matter what I do It will always be my home Among the wastes of tortured souls I will always roam Time will always be It decays again and again Chorus Here in this Hell I can never die I dream of death, despair Raise my curses to the sky! I see my people fall in shallow graves to lie I dream of death, despair Wind echoes my eternal cry Verse Two When the winds they blow They come with ice and rain That spiteful demon king The lord of the Arcane He came to our kingdom As if a friend I let him in, this guilt I bear For my vanity would spell the end Solo: Delise Bridge A Gazing out from my sacrificial altar Eyes open and mind attuned To every dying scream Every waking nightmare My people endured I live it again, and again And again! Solo: Jones Bridge B (A) Is there no relief in this ever waking dream My guilt, my shame, my fate eternally! (B) Will I ever be released from this never ending nightmare? (C) Please let me die! (D) I raise my curses to the sky! Verse Three So he cast his demon spell Killing all who were sworn to me Leaving me to live Out my crime eternally Among this haunted land I will always roam No matter what I do It will always be my home
