Requiem - Nostalgia Corpsecry - Angelfall Music: Sigh, Lyrics: Mirai Minimoog Solo by Mirai Diabolic desire is burning so higher Leading me to this place I may deserve this The price I have to pay For what I have done Bloodstained is the glory of the days that are gone The stories that are never told So dread and cold Tribulation for what I have done Thousands of lost souls once innocent and pure They are after me behind my back Will death ever save me from this nightmare? Until the moment my kingdom did fall in the Illusion through my fear or my tears Confession eternally sealed in my remorse Bridge: Scream for love, Scream for hate Scream for life, Scream for death Chorus: Buried secret never touched Insanity trapped in the curse Hear the corpses cry! Souls laid to rest No place to hide Next is my turn Hear the corpses cry Guitar solo by Shinichi Souls that I've hunt haunt me Now I've got no eyes to see Murders justified by insanity Souls never purified eternally Diabolic desire is burning so higher Leading me to this place Bridge: Scream for love, Scream for hate Scream for life, Scream for death I may deserve this The price I have to pay For what I have done Bridge: Scream for love, Scream for hate Scream for life, Scream for death Chorus: Buried secret never touched Insanity trapped in the curse Head the corpses cry! Souls to be laid to rest No place to hide Next is my turn Hear the corpses cry! If you think they're gone Then I must say Pestering Past is heard in the corpsecry Laughter will be interrupted by the Fear of their vengeance Now I hear the corpses cry! Guitar solo by Shinichi Scarlet Dream Music: Sigh, Lyrics: Mirai Female Chorus: Chie K. Please open my eye, the third eye Please open my eye, I shan't deny Please open my eye, scarlet lies Please open my eye, I shan't defy The pseudo deaths I've been going through And remembrance of the past catches my soul The truth is raped, Escape the world that I knew And remembrance of this future catches my soul Please open my eye, the third eye Please open my eye, I am blind Please open my eye, death inside Please open my eye, it's so bright Don't believe what you hear with your ears Don't believe in the fate that you fear I am blind but I know the truth is here I am deaf but I know Revelation coming near Chorus: I am the Sun, I am the Moon I'm living in the Scarlet Dream Born in heaven and raised in hell I'm wandering in the Scarlet Dream Guitar solo by Shinichi Please open my eye and it begins Minimoog solo by Mirai Please open my eye, the third eye Please open my eye, I shan't deny Please open my eye, scarlet lies Please open my eye, I shan't defy Soon I'll reach the sea of love behind the lies Then I'll touch IT as the inner light guides Don't be late, catch the words they try to hide Don't belong to the world before your eyes Nietzschean Conspiracy Music: Mirai, Lyrics: BÅrd Eithun My acquisition of an illusory defilement Holy expurgation, tell me how values influence you Measure of man and intrusive commandment Compunction, is it all getting through? I am Law, I am Right Threshold of pain, like you ever lived in vain Might is relative, might is right Will to power, a goddamn fight Well developed through Nitzschean conspiracy Hammond solo by Mirai Your God is omnipotent, why then indulgent? Extinction of absolutes, sedentary idolatry sent Through Dionysian worldview Will be divided by reason, understood by few I am Law, I am Right Threshold of pain, like you ever lived in vain Might is relative, might is right Will to power, a goddamn fight Well developed through Nitzschean conspiracy A Sunset Song Music: Sigh, Lyrics: Mirai Despise me, Deprive me of my Pride (It) used to be my bride, When I cry, when I die I'll be denied by my disguise So vile... My eyes, cold as ice None shall overcome the horrible destiny Sympathized but paralyzed When identity is lost death may be the only way to ease me Fender Rhodes solo by Mirai Tear me apart til I die Tear me apart, sacrifice Tear me apart and hear my cry Tear me apart to kill my pride Something I'll have to lose In return to reach the truth Something I can't lose Even if my death is abused Something I'll have to lose In return to reach the truth Something I can't lose Even if I'll never be soothed I will never believe in those lies Nothing sacred, Nothing divine When pondering on the life fragile Helpless resistance I will resign Guitar solo by Shinichi Finite is my life, still searching for my shrine As long as I feel so scared The mask which I wear, My fear is leading me nowhere Now my life is a farce I cannot bear Tear me apart till I die Tear me apart, sacrifice Tear me apart and hear my cry Tear me apart to kill my pride I don't need the dreams to believe in As I know I'll never be relieved As I see the fantasy is a deceit As I know no one shares my grief Despise me, Deprive me of my pride (It) used to be my bride, When I cry, when I die... I'll be denied by my disguise And I wait for the sunset Waiting for the sun to set Impromptu (Allegro Maestoso) Music: Mirai (Instrumental) Yamaha Acoustic Piano by Mirai Dreamsphere (Return to the Chaos) Music: Sigh, Lyrics: Mirai Hammond solo by Mirai Primal impact in the sonic galaxy Collapsed by beauty, collapsed into fury Reached insanity beyond mortality Astral infinity to find the reason to be Bridge: Through the eyes of a hawk I will see The para-future when I'll be free Through the eyes of a hawk I will see Cosmic heaven where I will be Chorus: Help me, Help me please I'm drowning in the middle of the dream Hear my plea, hear me scream I'm drowning in the middle of the dream Waves of eternity in my heartbeat Collapsed by beauty, collapsed into fury Predicted destiny beyond my sanity I will NEVER find the reason to be Bridge: Through the eyes of a hawk I will see The para-future when I'll be free Through the eyes of a hawk I will see Cosmic heaven where I will be Chorus: Help me, Help me please I'm drowning in the middle of the dream Hear my plea, hear me scream I'm drowning in the middle of the dream Minimoog solo by Mirai Hammond solo by Mirai Return to the chaos, in the dreamsphere Return to the chaos, dreams of the dead Return to the chaos, dreams I fear Return to the chaos, with no regrets Return to the chaos, in the dreamsphere Return to the chaos, in the sonicscape Return to the chaos, dreams I fear Return to the chaos, in the sonic chaos Guitar solo by Shinichi Ecstatic Transformation Music: Sigh, Lyrics: Mirai Female Chorus: Chie K.

Scream, I'm trying to scream, But will they hear my shriek? Dream, or is it a dream? Resistance that is so weak Visions turning red, confusion inside of my head Chorus: Now I see the light in the flame that is my burning pride Drowning in the middle of the miserable dream Nostalgia tears my flesh Love was taught, Taught by death Hate was sought, sought by life Drowning in the middle of the miserable dream But dream is fading away Love was taught, Taught by death Hate was sought, sought by life Dying, am I dying? Will I be buried with my past? Crying, I hear them crying, when my heart is beating so fast Fears grown in my sight The place where I'd hide Chorus: Now I see the light in the flame that is my burning pride Drowning in the middle of the miserable dream Nostalgia tears my flesh Love was taught, Taught by death Hate was sought, sought by life Drowning in the middle of the miserable dream But dream is fading away Love was taught, Taught by death Hate was sought, sought by life Guitar solo by Shinichi
