The Calling Winds

Great breeze you summon me
To shield our galaxy in harmony
I sail on clouds of rose
Climb a mast, expose my destiny
As land's end looms
Stars align as they approve
Unitedly
And now I face my highest call
It's calling me
(It's calling me)
It’s calling me
(It's calling me)

We swung from years and years before
On vines of endless love
Beheld from trees, our land in bloom
Our rules of life
They will reign
Our boundless pride of our liberty
Lights the darkest night
No hate ignites in our dynasty
We will remain
Peace will not fade
We stay the same
Our beating heart's in flames
We rest by fire
Raise a glass to freedom
Tales of Time
Fill the night
Symphonic laughter
Gripped the earth
Our golden galaxy
From dusk till dawn we seize the day
With blissful ecstasy
Silver skies in harmony
Reflect our soul
With our love so pure
Our joy will endure
Peace will uphold
Till death our rules will reign
We rest by fire
Raise a glass to freedom
Tales of Time
Fill the night
Symphonic laughter
Gripped the earth
A distant shadow calls
The dawn of time haunts every breath
Will we find a way to hide
Forsaken time, buried mind, linger over
Fate, will you guide us through the dark
Oh shallow grace, recall my
Love, reveal the unknown
Secrets unfold
We rest by fire
Raise a glass to freedom
Tales of Time
Fill the night Symphonic laughter
Has gripped the earth
Our hearts unite
Our broken sky
We rest by fire
Raise a glass to freedom
Tales of Time
Fill the night
Symphonic laughter
Gripped the earth
We're proud to say
We rest by fire
Raise a glass to freedom
Tales of Time
Fill the night
Symphonic laughter
Gripped the earth
Our hearts unite
Our silver sky

Crystal Silence
Creeping down along my spine
The echoes fading in the night
Emptiness and memories
The void and dust arise to fall
There is no remedy for all
Time
As it chains your mind
You can hide in fear
When the dark draws near
Splayed
By a vow so cruel
Oh, maybe I'm a fool
Oh, maybe I’m a fool
Trust me, step closer
Come and free me of my sin
Eternally you'll be mine
No one else could understand
Shame will haunt me in my dreams
My demons softly call your name
Time
As it chains your mind
You can hide in fear
When the dark draws near
Splayed
By a vow so cruel
Oh, maybe I'm a fool
Wake me up
Wake me up
Take me up
Silent eternity, free me from my agony
Wake me up
Wake me up
Take me up
Timeless reality, free me from illusion
Time
As it chains your mind
You can hide in fear
When the dark draws near
Splayed
By a vow so cruel
Oh, maybe I'm a fool
Time
As it chains your mind
You can hide in fear
When the dark draws near
Splayed
By a vow so cruel
Oh, maybe I'm a fool
Oh, maybe I'm a fool

What Have I Become
05:20

Your shelter may fall
Beauty must die
The core of our soul
Stands out there alone
Under the stars
That cover us
We'll face our own truth
The horizon calls our heart
But if I rise
Will I fall?
I should take it all
Lead the way
But I know
I've always fought alone
I'll miss the sand on a stormy shore
Bright sunlight hits a leafy floor
Oh, moonlight
Resonates my fight
Snow that tickles as it quietly falls
Birds sing out loud in a break of dawn
What Have I Become?
Please hold on
And risk it all
Force your heart
And force your soul
Bright golden moon
Scarlet ocean
Hold tight to us now
Hide us, guide us, lead us
But if I rise
Will I fall?
I should take it all
Lead the way
But I know
I've always fought alone
I'll miss the sand on a stormy shore
Bright sunlight hits a leafy floor
Oh, moonlight
Resonates my fight
Snow that tickles as it quietly falls
Birds sing out loud in a break of dawn
What Have I Become?
Bright sun has shifted
The heat starts to drop
Weakness takes over
Oh, and life
Life starts to rot
Good times to sad rhymes
Things we have lost
Our world falls apart
I'll miss the sand on a stormy shore
Bright sunlight hits a leafy floor
Oh, moonlight
Resonates my fight
Snow that tickles as it quietly falls
Birds sing out loud in a break of dawn
What Have I Become?
What Have I Become?

Rise

Forever try and spread my charms
In a place time forgot
Won’t seek another land of hope
Got a savage war to fight
For a kingdom I hold tight
With the gravity of might
I fulfill my role
And yet a young girl screams
A fearsome tale
Of life unknown
The ashes glow
Try and hurt me
I will fight alone
Stood strong
I will survive
Try and break me
I will guard my home
I will give my life
Without care
I'll Rise, I'll Rise
You will haunt me
‘Cause I'm not on your side
Now you see that I've become
So much stronger than before
I'll raise a voice you can’t ignore
Look into my eyes you’ll find
A red mist of rage that flows
With the force of wild tides
I reach my goal
And yet a blackbird sings
With damning will
Of life unknown
Try and hurt me
I will fight alone
Stood strong
I will survive
Try and break me
I will guard my home
I will give my life
Without care
I'll Rise, iI'll Rise
You will haunt me
‘Cause I'm not on your side
Lost in time, I stand and wait
Throw off the chains of chosen faith
All we had just fades away
The change of life we have to bear
And yet a great oak leans
With chilling bow
For life unknown
Try and hurt me
I will fight alone
Stood strong
I will survive
Try and break me
I will guard my home
I will give my life
Without care
I'll Rise, I'll Rise
You will haunt me
‘Cause I'm not on your side
Try and hurt me
I will fight alone
Stood strong
I will survive
Try and break me
I will guard my home
I will give my life
Without care
I'll Rise, I'll Rise
You will haunt me
But you'll see that I'll rise

A lion’s heart
Will die in vain
Its cry will fill the night
Prepare yourself, my love
For a change in the sky
Sing not too loud
Soar not too high
While our galaxy's asleep
Seek your faith, my love
Foresee your burning destiny
And I
Like a daffodil in May
Disappearing by the day
They made their choice
It's their mistake
Hear my cries I say
I'm a Muse of Unknown Forces
Fear my pain
For I retain
All your well known sources
Like the laws
Forgotten now
Crumbling with pressure
In death you trust
In blood you rise
You’d better scream your last goodbye
Reveal your shame, my love
Come and face your sacrifice
And I
Like a daffodil in May
Disappearing by the day
You made your choice
It's your mistake
Hear my cries I say
I'm a Muse of Unknown Forces
Fear my pain
For I retain
All your well known sources
Hear my cries
(Hear my cries)
I'm a Muse of Unknown Forces
Fear my pain
(Fear my pain)
I'm a Muse of Unknown Forces
My fight is almost done
Now the forest lays in somber
Five united in one
It breaks down
Everything
That has been taught
Now fierce and burning air prevails
You've made your way
Hear my cries I say
I'm a Muse of Unknown Forces
Fear my pain
For I retain
All your well known sources
Hear my cries
(Hear my cries)
I'm a Muse of Unknown Forces
Fear my pain
(Fear my pain)
For I retain
All your well known sources
Like the laws
Forgotten now
Crumbling with pressure

Young girl dream
Of Golden Lands
Rest it in my hands
Carefree
Memories
Of waltzing in bare feet
Child, you were young
You’re older now
Time flown by
Your dreams will fade
Lost all your faith
Your tears shall fall
Memories
Of walks in summer heat
If I could fly back in time
I would to you
Please do not beg nor cry
I'll sing our lullaby
And you will learn to push on through
You'll have the strength and pride
Show your feelings trapped inside
Life's a test
You'll try your best, I'm sure
Cold wind blows
I stand alone
“Stick to your plans”
She'd say
Memories
And longing for past times
Well, now I see
They’re over now
My old dream
Of Golden Lands
Slipped through my hands

Bow down my love
And fill yourself with harmony
Your lips, your eyes
Your senses slowly disappear
Bow down, obey my love
And slowly follow me
I'll lead the way
To your so darkest fantasy
Let me be clear
Your dynasty will fall
May you be warned
Your wall shall break
Your soul betrays the everlasting joy
You may believe
You’ve got a choice
Close your eyes
You'll see the angel screaming
The ground disappearing here
Come closer angel
Hear the thunder of the sea
Breathe in the burning air
And see, the dead are free
Your grave, your curse, your sin
Your soul and fantasy
They’ll lead a way
To your so darkest dynasty
Let me be clear
May you be warned
Your wall shall break
Your soul betrays the everlasting joy
You may believe
You’ve got a choice
Close your eyes
You'll see the angel screaming
The ground disappearing here
You'll see the old dark sword in my throat
Sleep now angel
Caress my soul
Your silent wings
Will guide me home
Embrace my sorrow
Embrace my shame
Guide me, I will follow
May you be warned
Your wall shall break
Your soul betrays the everlasting joy
You may believe
You’ve got a choice
Close your eyes
May you be warned
Your wall shall break
(Your wall shall break)
Your soul betrays the everlasting joy
You may believe
(You may believe)
You’ve got a choice
Close your eyes
You'll see the angel screaming
The ground disappearing here
You'll see the old dark sword in my throat

Melissa Bonny is the best symphonic female vocalist not named Floor Jansen. Sadly, Ad Infinitum chooses to throw in incomprehensible death metal growling - which I flatly can't stand. The band seems to have lost a bit of identity and direction.
