CHAPTER I : SIX FEET UNDER WATER Story begins below the line of the waves, where time has stopped and where everything belongs to the cold monsters, calm like the death. Reigning on the former fortresses buried in the sand. broken faces will be hypnotized, broken faces will be paralyzed, paralyzed. I am king. Now I am a monster in so many ways. The trigger must be the blackness of the deep waters any fucking day. Now I am a monster in so many ways. I am a king among the cowards and I want to become a god. Drowned in the curse of the ocean, six feet under water with only the silence. I saw like the first time I saw.

CHAPTER II : THE WAY OF THE LIGHT I'm sorry my brothers, I'm not brave enough for the depths. I need to see the world with eyes wide open. Selfish and obssesed with my evolution, swimming to the surface and its reflections until I stop to breath, hit by the waves, stop to breath, my skin is burning. I am in flames. Stay with me, until I die. Stay with me, until I die.

Ascension 04:01
CHAPTER III : ASCENSION Just above the water, I use the rain to raise me above the clouds until the sun. And I see the light for the first time. And I fall in the din of the waves, my body is burning, I swallow the sun. It is in me now, burning my belly, I feel it on my scales. Everything is clear now. And I see the light for the first time. And I fall in the din of the waves, my body is burning. I swallowed the sun. I am coming home.

40 Days 08:57
CHAPTER IV : 40 DAYS Six feet under water, dazed by the echo of the abyss. And when I spread my wings, just under the surface. Feeling the sun on my scales, I see clearly for the first time, colors, peace and shades. I brought the sun on the dark side. Back in the shadows, now I see everything, the ruins, the monsters and kings don't scare me anymore. Go back to sleep. And what's better now ? What can we do to improve us even more. And what's better now ? What's really necessary ? Go back to sleep, join me, I'll bring you the peace. When the deep waters have become in flames, I swallowed the sun and now I am god. When the deep waters have become in flames, I swallowed the sun and now I am everything.

CHAPTER V : NOW YOU CAN FEED THE MONSTER (PART 1) You live, finally you live, welcome to the chaos, welcome to the chaos. Live, whatever the price, whatever must be done, provided they don't wake up anymore.
6.
CHAPTER VI : NOW YOU CAN FEED THE MONSTER (PART 2) We live until we drown, what could we lose ? This is our new world. Shut up and pray, we fight for the peace, away from the beast, draw your swords. Behind the mask and the barricades, the mark has been made. Behind the mask and the barricades, and the storm is coming. Now I can show you the mark, now you can feed the monster. Behind the mask and the barricades, the mark has been made, and the storm is coming. The uprising of the youth begins. Those who made no mistake, fighting for the memories that don't exist, those who aren't yet eaten by guilt, those ones will go to war. Behind the mask and the barricades.

CHAPTER VII : CHILREN OF THE SUN Leave me here with the violence. You can fight with us against the monsters of the depths. I don't even try to be one of you. We are fighting for our property, we are fighting for our children. I probably should have dropped the circle of the living to join the line. I should have killed myself before, like the master of the cowards. Between the lords and the rebellion. Of the light we're born again, our spirits rise, thanks to it, we are blind and I try in vain, but I can't live with this dispair. So I flee away from here, down to the earth’s core.

CHAPTER VIII : IN THE VIOLENCE OF THE ASHES I was there, in the violence of the ashes. I couldn't see a thing till I shut my eyes. I had a voice inside me. I would sell my soul to know it all, but I held the keys all this time. Evils feed the light, devided we'll fall. Now I can go home, I finally found an answer now, I hope it's not too late. I just want to hide the sun, no one can control this thing. I can hear the war drums coming, I can hear the annihilation.

War drums 02:10
CHAPTER IX : WAR DRUMS Please could you stop the noise of the war drums. This is the end, a new war begins. They come from the surface and they come for the sun, I can see the ghosts, I swear, I swear. I see the ghosts coming, an army that we created by breaking the balance. This is a call to arms. They want the sun but we can't go back into the shadow. Please could you stop the noise of the war drums. This is the end, a new war begins. They come from the surface and they come for the sun, I can see the ghosts, I swear, I swear. This is a call to arms.
10.
Necessary 03:32
CHAPTER X : NECESSARY Hear me now good people, hear the way of the truth. Understand me because I am the only one. A tragedy is coming, keep your eyes wide shut, and don't ask me for anything, I can't reply to everyone. The Sun, our savior, gave us the answer. Bleed, bleed, remember that everyone can bleed, bleed if the light disappeared. Is this what you want ? It's the natural way of things and there is no monster here, expect maybe some pagans. Remember, remember our darkest days of fear, God, think of your children. You have to fight against the ghosts, you need to build a better future. Don’t forget this is necessary.

Genesis 1:6 04:57
CHAPTER XI : GENESIS 1:6 Bury me alive, our world is burning, it's too late for us now, we lost the war. I destroyed my world because of my obsession, I just wanted to set us free. Leave me to death, that's all I deserve but you have to know, the sun is the key, the sun is the reason. The light burns our skins, the light burns our brains, why should we stay in the ocean. Something is happening, among the ashes, the sun gives his answer in the middle of the battlefield. Why should we stay alive, the sun becomes the violence. The sun becomes the violence, burned by the weight of the pains, time stops and soldiers remain frozen, the whole ocean begins to freeze. Nothing else but silence as before the apocalypse and the sun explose into seven pieces scattered between our worlds to restore the equilibrium, shattered. Ghosts come back home with their pieces of sun. Our world is destroyed but this is where we start to rebuild. And I die for my sins. We can't see the hate, we can't see the violence, everything will be different now. We can't see the monsters, we can't see the traitors. You won't be blinded by the light. We can't see the opression, we can't see the war. You can control what you want to see. And I die for my sins, and I die for my sins.
