Rakshasa (The Demon)
08:36
|

The storm is nigh
Roiling clouds above the peak
Signs of life
Fading fast beneath the sky
Wait to die
Your beating heart will soon be mine
Run away from here
This is my land, this is where you fall (Rakshasa)
Where you vanish with no trace at all (Rakshasa)
Where even the gods dare not ascend (Rakshasa)
Where infinities begin again (Rakshasa)
I will find you
Take me away
I will find you
Take me away
Kangchenjunga, where earth meets heaven
Here among the Five Treasures of Snow
Footprints tell the stories of ancient gods
Deities watching over this hallowed ground
Beyond the summit where no man walks
Lies the final frozen crucible of this world
This is my land, this is where you fall (Rakshasa)
Where you vanish with no trace at all (Rakshasa)
Where even the gods dare not ascend (Rakshasa)
Where infinities begin again (Rakshasa)
I will find you
(Take me away)
I will find you
(Take me away)

Valley of Immortality
08:20
|
|||
In the vast cold fields lie treasures untold
Yet what you see is not what I behold
Gaze into the abyss as I gaze into you
Is it gold that you seek?
Is it the wisdom of ages
Or is it everlasting life?
Run away from here, never look back
Leave it all behind, leave it for the gods
Run away, run away while you still can
Do you seek gold or everlasting life?

Eyes of God
07:17
|
|||
Come with me to lands of ice
I will show you the way through
Crevasses call and chasms wait
Insatiable their appetites
The cold awaits my beck and call
The frost descends upon my will
The eyes of god cannot see here
The mountain, it can sense your fear
Life and death are in my hands
Follow me through hallowed lands
Every mountain, every pass
Every valley, every stream
Spirits watch your greatest test
Dzö-nga follows, never rests
And one day you will believe
Believe in me

Through Kang La

5. |
||||
Stand, fight
I'm finished running away
Rise, turning my eyes to the sky
I will climb this mountain or die
Following fading tracks
They lie, they lie
Staggering blindly on
Be gone, be gone
Summit, break in the clouds
In sight, in sight
Holding breath, reaching out
The light, the light
