I was born on the cloud, God’s creation, angel’s spawn Antisocial creature with gift and with might From cloud to cloud I would jump, from page to page I would turn Making my world and letting it burn I’d do it so long that I would see my Master’s frown in front of me And I’d known that I had gone to far He’d say: ‘Look what you’ve done, oh, you stubborn one You really created your little child’ Down on Earth he crawls in dirt and you were the one who gave him birth You’ll be sent there, the Guardian you’ll become He’d gave me horned hat as he made me kneel, he’d gave me knee pads made of steel And my brothers were singing me a song ‘Goodbye, sister, you were sinister But we will always remember you!’ He’d push me from my home cloud, for months I’ve been falling down ‘Till I crashed in the town of the wild With bleeding knees and bleeding hands my dearest child I would find Evil forces were gathering around Hello madness, hello murky warriors, I feel a power in my mind Goodbye serenity, life’s mediocrity The Warrior Angel’s mission has just begun

The soil is digested with frost, town is covered with ashes The silence awaits to be broken by first rays of sun The first day of spring fills our hearts with desire And I've got a vision that something needs to be done My child looks at me and his eyes are tender and mellow And I know he's got something crucial for me to say 'You know, there's a candle and one day it may stop burning And it may take everything that we know away.' I feel the terror conquering my mind and my windpipe Petrifying shiver comes down between my wings 'I promise, my child, that this candle will never stop burning The dark infinity will never devour our dreams' I promise, my child, that this candle will never stop burning The dark infinity will never devour our dreams And few hours later blessed by the night Gone is the light, flame's out of sight The face in the mirror is crying and howling Keep it rolling, keep it... LIT! Among mint walls as cold as my hands There's a dim glow I can't understand The wick has drown, the fire's gone Here in the dark we're all alone I grab a needle and push it to life My fingers are bleeding, my wings broke down I burn the match and light it again It's late and eerily, I lost self-restrain I send all my energy far to the west It drains all my power away from my chest And next day I know the heaven is free I lit all the candles for you and for me Don’t cry anymore, we're coming to life My knees only shake from this deadly strife I can't understand the miracles I make But I'll remain by your side as long as it takes Guardian angel to wash the scars away Guardian angel to wash the scars... The soil is digested with frost, town is covered with ashes The silence awaits to be broken by first rays of sun The second day of spring fills our hearts with relief And I got cursed so now I am the one I am the one

I. I dare you evil souls, I dare you cursed spirits If you are so brave come and dance with me Come here, drink my wine, we are going to feast While candles still burn my rage will be released The beast is going out, I’m pulling your strings I’ll kill you if you don’t stop cutting his wings My child was born free, my child was born wild If you take this away you are going to die I dare you cursed souls, I dare you evil spirits If you’ve got a pride end this unequal fight I dare you forever and you know what to do Come and face the enemy who is as strong as you! II. Void Is it the permanent state of my soul? I must embrace all the pain Scorn It’s contaminating my heart, torn apart Cursed for ages I’m tainted, oblivious, forlorn and possessed They’re drinking my feelings straight from my chest Demons Your demons, my child And if they kill me who will care for you? I feel like there is no room for us too They’ll take one and I volunteer (Demons: We’ve come to feast, to eat your eyes To kill you and feed on your paradise God left you to bleed, oh you fallen one So we’ll devour you instead of your son You’re weak and you’re blind and you’re on your own Completely forlorn, completely alone You’ll never return even if you strive And for sure you will never get out alive!) So stab me once more, I’m into your game I accepted the rules, I’m so led astray Suck up all my lymph, come lick my veins dry At least it’s not him who is going to die Come tear us apart, dehydrate my heart Overwhelm my brain and weaken my art I’m curious to know how everything ends As you still didn’t manage to possess my hands III. And I hear the ray of heat Passing softly along the street And the voices are singing: ‘Your trial is over now You paid the price and you survived Your child was free from all the pain And your love like a tiny grain Bloomed rapidly from this sacrifice Bringing sparks to the coldest eyes’ I wash my hands and tune my soul While other angels are singing in awe And the sound of their choirs is august and loud I can barely hear their crowd I hold the hand of my child (I hold his hand) While we’re returning to our town of the wild (Town of the wild) Where my powers sprouted, where pollution is high And warrior angels are welcome anytime I hold the hand of my child (Everything is alright) While we’re returning to our town of the wild (United forevermore) Where my powers sprouted, where pollution is high And Warrior Angels are welcome anytime

Once upon a time over eighth hill Over dark forest, up the icy stairs In the secret land nearby the mighty castle There lived King’s Advisor, Viking and the Lady fair Peaceful life they’d led in their idyll With love and with peace they filled their days But then black cloud appeared over Advisor’s head The evil forces left their trace He took a sturdy rope as thick as his arm He hid carefully behind castle’s wall He watched for the Lady’s inattentive step As he captured her savagely in the castle’s hall He dragged her to the forest, so somber and cold Much more horrific than in the days of old He tied her to the tree, her wrists started to bleed, She cried so silently not to make a stir Soon they both got covered with the shade of sword As the Viking loomed from behind the fir Hands off my child, miscreant! He put up his sword He put up his sword And he made a cut And he made a cut The rope ruptured gracefully The rope ruptured wildly Trees bursted with blood Demons rose from the mud His sword shone like star His sword crossed their clubs The brightness appeared He killed them one by one Black cloud scattered There was no room for peace Salvation was near As the damage was done King’s Advisor was free King’s Advisor was lost Blood was no longer shed He couldn’t be forgiven In splendor of the sword Banished from idyll He cried tears of regret Woeful life he lived United again There ain’t no reprieve As his demons were gone For ones who get that blind They danced ‘round him all night For ones who get possessed So he wouldn’t feel alone Our swords we grind And then there was peace And then there was peace The land was free again The land was free again They all sang in harmony There were no more intruders Till the very end Till the very end That’s how one cut ended That’s how one cut ended All evil and hate All evil and hate The fairytale is over The fairytale is over The rest is left to fate The rest is left to fate

Will the devil crawl from hell again? Will the devil crawl from hell again? Will she push the Guardian, will she grab her throne? Will the devil crawl from hell again? Will the demon cut the angel’s throat? Will the demon cut the angel’s throat? It’s getting hard to breathe, the sun is going down Will the demon drown her in the slough? Sickle shines in glow of the moon Sickle shines in glow of the moon Goldenrod still sways but soon it will be gone Sickle shines in glow of the moon Will the angel win another fight? Will the angel win another fight? Her child will rest in nest, curse is carved in the tombstone Will the angel win this fight alone? The hell is your place and you come from the night I won’t stand any longer your pitiful sight There ain’t no mercy for the envoy of gloom I’m the guardian of gleam, you’re the maggot of doom I’ll make disease devour your unctuous limbs And the ashes of yours will rest on my wings I ruffle my feathers with no sign of remorse Your infinite affliction will remain my source

I was born on the cloud, God’s creation, Devil’s pride Who cast a spell onto my hands right before they kicked me out? I am lying in the wetlands, rays of light caress my eyes My child is free, new day begins, I’m heading for another ride I could set the world ablaze as I had done in early days But we’re at it again for cursed train never stops It’s unfair that word of art can tear everything apart Spat to the world I cannot flee, was it augury or was it me? Always hoping that it all was just a weird coincidence After twentieth I have lost the count and I started to watch my hands I’ve lost control over my mind and the story goes on again Raised my child, protected him from disease and another one walks ‘cross my way I could set the world ablaze as I had done in early days But we’re at it again for cursed train never stops It’s unfair that word of art can tear everything apart Spat to the world I cannot flee, was it augury or was it me? I’ve been sent here to take care, I destroyed so I’ll repair So don’t tell me it’s too late, I will ruin and I’ll create I am ready for the storm, I am here to keep them warm I’ll provide them all they need if they only stopped to bleed Take it all, I’ve lost control But my wings heal and these ain’t my last words I’ve been sent here to take care, I destroyed so I’ll repair So don’t tell me it’s too late, I will ruin and I’ll create I am ready for the storm, I am here to keep them warm I’ll provide them all they need if they only stopped to bleed I have learned how to be strong, Earth is place where I belong But the story needs to last, seems I don’t learn from the past No way I can watch my mind, I pretend to do my best The cursed train never stops, my power never rests I could set the woods ablaze, I went deeper in the maze Now I’m at new story gates, kill it ‘till it procreates! Burnt the candles, fought with ire, danced all night around the fire Now my child is wild and free, was it augury or was it me? Yet another story ends, I stand here with dirty hands Am I tyrant or redeemer? The cursed train never stops Dump my feelings off the cliff, it’s the only remedy I don’t want to be the cause of another tragedy
