Lyrics: 
 ===Part I - Odysseus' Theme / Overture===
 
 (Instrumental)
 
 
 ===Part II - Journey to Ithaca===
 
 To the one that I love, my journey has begun 
 When our eyes meet once more there will be peace 
 The taste of your lips the warmth of your touch 
 Again, forever, two souls as one
 
 Seems like forever that my eyes have been denied 
 Home, I'm dreaming of home 
 I've been twenty years away from all I ever knew 
 To return would make my dreams come true
 
 Seasons of sorrow have stolen all my years 
 I miss the rolling hills of Ithaca
 I've been through battles and cried a sea of tears 
 but the tide is changing, and with it all my fears 
 
 Yeah
 I will return
 
 Seems like forever that my eyes have been denied 
 Home, I'm dreaming of home 
 I've been twenty years away from all I ever knew 
 To return would make my dreams come true 
 
 Behold the sea and winds of Jove
 We set sail guided by the stars above
 The ports of Troy escape our view
 A cold and stormy fate awaits our rendezvous 
 
 Onward we ride into the raging fury 
 Setting our course by the moon and sun 
 We forge ahead seeking glory 
 Yet the journey has just begun 
 
 Onward we ride
 Nine days we brave her might 
 We are (we are we are we are we are we are ) coming home...
 
 
 ===Part III - The Eye===
 
 Awakened at dawn
 Land dead ahead with the winds of the morning we change course 
 No remorse, a place forbidden to all 
 
 Search all the grounds 
 Find food and water 
 Yet journey not into the Cave of Woe 
 Long ago
 A legend spoke of a beast 
 
 A thousand riches 
 Hidden deep within the stone 
 A thousand nightmares
 Mortal's blood forever flows 
 
 Mountainous black 
 Engulfed in a shadow 
 A bone chilling growl and an Eye of Hate 
 A ghastly fate, held prisoner by the Eye 
 
 Yet he must sleep 
 As the daylight fades 
 We focus our senses and sharpen the blade 
 We take aim
 In silence we strike 
 
 A thousand riches
 Hidden deep within the stone 
 A thousand nightmares 
 Blood runs forever 
 From the Eye...
 
 
 ===Part IV - Circe (Daughter of the Sun)===
 
 We sit adrift on the open sea
 The gift of wind, by Zeus, concealed
 So carelessly 
 We break the waves on a course untrue 
 Across an endless plain of blue
 A new coast in view 
 
 We carouse with the maiden, beneath her eyes, the madness lies... in mystery 
 I (I) drink deep from the chalice of gold and jade, my senses fade... I'm mesmerized 
 Ohh
 Stay, like those before I condemn you all, from walk to crawl... metamorphasized 
 No (no), my will it defies her, speak the verse, lift the curse... she's mesmerized
 Ohh
 
 Am I asleep?
 Tell me, daughter of the sun
 There's vengeance in the air
 All things, all things must be undone
 
 
 ===Part V - Sirens===
 
 Dire warnings
 Told by the sorceress in white 
 'False bringers of love' - Sirens 
 Echoing songs from above 
 
 Wings flowing 
 Floating on Sea of Lies, I defy
 Their vision 
 Elysium swallows my cries 
 
 Embracing
 Maidens of lust stimulate and manipulate
 My senses 
 I welcome a watery grave 
 
 Tied steadfast
 To the mast tragedy awaits me 
 I'm falling
 Victim betrayed by the sea 
 
 
 ===Part VI - Scylla and Charybdis===
 
 a) Gulf of Doom
 b) Drifting Home
 
 (Instrumental)
 
 ===Part VII - The Fate of the Suitors / Champion of Ithaca===
 
 So this is home... 
 In the guise of a beggar 
 Minerva guides my way 
 I find my kingdom in jeopardy 
 
 Vengeance it swells within me 
 As I spy
 So many who eye my queen 
 I'll make them pay for this blasphemy, all will see 
 
 Triumphant champion of Ithaca 
 I will right all the wrongs, let the Gods sing my song 
 Triumphant champion of Ithaca 
 Let a new life begin, my journey has come to and end 
 
 A contest of valor
 "To pierce the twelve rings in a single arrow's flight" 
 Yet, not a one can string the bow 
 
 My veil of silence lifted
 All is revealed 
 Revenge burns in my heart 
 Thrashing and slashing down all my foes, to claim the throne 
 
 Triumphant champion of Ithaca 
 I will right all the wrongs, let the Gods sing my song 
 Triumphant champion of Ithaca 
 Let a new life begin, this is the end of my Odyssey 
 
 Seems like forever that my eyes have been denied 
 Home, I'm finally home
 I've been twenty years away from all I ever knew
 I have returned to make my dream come true
