“If your time had come, Lorelei would find you through the lakes and the oceans, rivers and rain drops, and take you deep, beneath the waves, to be judged for your deeds. I had broken out of the most feared prison in all of the known world and as I jumped in the waters below, her silky voice called ever louder.”

don’t let it shine,
when it’s gone,
I’ll be alive.
Can you believe the line crossing the night?
Can you believe the sky? Open your eyes!

Highest-quality-metal!
Imagine Cynic having a baby with Dream Theater, Devin Townsend, Atheist and Joe Satriani!
And now imagine this and add fantastic songwriting!
Ok.
