1. | Boulevard Black | 14:21 | Show lyrics |
Death like, pale graceful ballet In silence drawing near For a second mere Forlorn silhouettes For an instant there Only to disappear, forever changing all and the few that see, and still believe Sweet, painful, fragile Dreams… A haven of chaos So scarred and so alone Walking dead Lost in streets unknown We were once the invisible ones Those that spoke and no one heard Ghosts dancing in silver lit nights And never to return to this world Ivory and dye, Delicate porcelain calm these façades Lost in rain relentless The brilliant and shining few Who once drowned amongst the grey Spite the pain and whipping rain Chose to walk these lesser travelled ways Away! Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts Walk on to new rivers The ones of old ran dry Their barren depths unveiled Crystal streams fell prey to the hands of time Days and nights go by, one by one Like water slipping through tired fi ngers Precious gems stolen from idle hands Small pieces of the sun, now lost Adrift in eternal darkness Breathing in the gloom Walking darkened gardens Where only shadows bloom Oh this world looks so different now a little more dies with every passing day Every minute steals a colour fl awing beauty in all ways Memories start to dither, One by one Dreams fall to splinters, One by one Seems like I am dying No air for these lungs It feels like I am dying So far from home Benathe the celestial canopy Angel wings and demon seeds Benathe the celestial canopy The legions march with me We walk the boulevard black Across these fi elds of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk down boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We walk down Boulevard so black An endless stream of time, this fi nite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown back to where we came from Praised be those of silence The blood tainted ivory innocence Praised be those that differ Blessed be the children of the fall Those that walk the boulevard black The legions of the left hand avenue An ode to the fallen An ode to for the lost An ode to the stranded To those that still burn All of the chains are splintered Those that woke are walking, fairlight All of my dreams are dead now All golden lies are lead now All of my angels have fallen We walk this earth like ghosts All of my angels are fallen All of my angels are beautiful Sing to me oh you sweet bleeding planet Sing to us that walk your ruins Sing to us for our words are dead Sing to us for their world is dead to us // An ode for the thinning breed of angels For their crimson lips and tangled feathers Majestic wings are spread climbing the sun One for the reason in reasoning nomore Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts And we are like fire flies, Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time… But for a second mere we glared For an instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well… We walk down Boulevard so black an endless stream of time, this fi nite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown, back to where we came from We walk down boulevard black Across thesefi elds of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk the boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We are like fire flies Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time… But for a second mere we glared For a shining instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well… At the end of a black boulevard. |

1. | Blood Orchid | 06:50 | Show lyrics |
Black cityscape Towering… Stone fangs tearing at the sky Putrid tears fall Black horrorscape Ghosts line these avenues These streets are trenches Ugly are these scars …and filled with rats they are Filled with rats they are! There are choirs, a ghost vesper for hope Like whispers beyond the roaring machinery So few the flowers in these gardens of rust Nested they rest ‘neath the carpet of dust I stand to watch the leaving birds spread their wings They will leave high above the chaos, high above everything While I hide deep within my flesh fortress under siege Where neither teachings nor syringes can reach There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life A search for the blood orchid in the rusted gardens of mankind Autumn clutched in the earthen arms of summer’s growth Beneath the canopy of warmth Where stars beacons the weary and small Yet every garden bear the witness of coming fall Few are the flowers in the gardens of man In these sparkling gutters of neon Babylon Ghost dance amongst the fortunate whores Scared and maimed the pale stumble on… Blood Orchid There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined Blood Orchid There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined Blood Orchid I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life Blood Orchid A search for you in these rusted gardens of mankind I stand to watch the leaving birds spread their wings They will leave high above the chaos, high above everything While I hide deep within my flesh fortress under siege Where neither teachings nor syringes can reach There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life A search for the Blood Orchid in the rusted gardens of mankind Blood Orchid Blood Orchid |

2. | Ashen Nectar | 07:58 | Show lyrics |
All aboard, this ship bound for wreckage Sail ho, fuckers! Who could foresee that this state of mind was forever? That we would never wake up from our nightmares? That the black poison dripped onto our skin would burn us That the clean streams of time wouldn’t be able to wash it away… Once these robes were worn as masquerade costumes The smooth velvet reviled hooks and razor claws That would not come of, cutting into the skin The harder we pulled the deeper its barbs dug in… Until death do us part my fair ones We the kings and queens of the depraved undone In the filthy streets, our splendid court, this neon Babylon We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar We are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar Side by side, we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar The last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar Our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed All words were first spoken then stolen Onto paper splattered By the weakened hand in the dark room Visions and a life lay scattered We are suns bent for darkness The stars that refuse to shine Artists of a different kind The ones that leave nothing behind There is no clean white bed, for this dying bride Farewell… We left our last pieces to be lost In forgotten dusty attics Where our blood has dried We were the ashen nectar fanatics There will nothing left when we leave Our shadowy art will remain unseen As we step through the haze Silhouettes exiting this dream We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar We are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar Side by side, we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar The last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar Our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed |

This night is dark, black as hell itself This is the wolf hour, a sea ready to devouver Standing at the shore, looking out Standing by the sea, forever looking for thee I have been standing by the sea built to stand for forever As walls of water crash I am stone, I will last Radiant my fiery eye, cutting through the night A solemn last promise a barren unyielding light I might be the last light you see The first not to abandon thee In these less than fortunate days Lost among these treacherous waves Chorus Lighthouse Eternal, Laterna Magika No matter where you hoped to go No matter where you have been No matter what you hoped to find No matter what you have seen No matter what you hoped to achieve No matter what you have become No matter what you hoped to do No matter what you have done I will always find you not let a single soul go astray We will bring you home again Not one single soul will be left behind These winds once carried me too Back when I was so like you I left port in search for other shores I dared these waves when all else had failed Now I stand blacker than the night At a shore where no one should go My light will never falter, never fade When all else is lost, I remain Chorus I will always find you not let a single soul go astray At the edge of the world of darkness This is the last port before it all ends For the stray ships cast the furtherst south of Eden No matter your flaws you are welcome here No matter your sins or past my dear You are welcome home sweet fallen one We’ll bring you home again We’ll bring you home again |

Dead Grid Incantation Lyrics Nephente Screaming souls across the dead grid Blured faces and voices crystallized Beneath the ground howling choirs weep You shut down; to you it’s no longer real Who are you, why did you come here child?

The Blackest Breed Lyrics Nephente A brilliant dark and spiteful creed Blessed by the kiss of Lilith At the place where night and hell will meet She gave birth to us the blackest breed The darkness is our salvation now We have all become malice in wonderland The ghastly ones clad in deepest grief Blacker than the black in silence we speak The quiet defiant The blackest breed The silent defiant The blackest breed The arrogant creed The blackest breed Oh the blackest breed Oh the blackest breed With the passing of time we became the strangest of all birds in the sky With awakening minds we cast the chains and we are the unbound crime The vilest storms rage within the stillest minds The strongest hearts beat in the quiet kind Beware of us who always do observe We’ll never bow before you and we were not meant to serve The quiet defiant The blackest breed The silent defiant The Blackest breed The arrogant creed The blackest breed Oh the blackest breed Oh the blackest breed With the passing of life we became the epitome of sin and of rebellion We are the blood, we are the sweat, the lustful zest, the beast tuned flesh They say we are cursed. If so by whom? If so be it. Then so be it. Are we cursed for walking away from this useless world grey? Are we cursed for walking away from this stage and its twisted play? Are we cursed for shunning the absurd, then so be it, then we’re the cursed Are we cursed for despising the misled and their lies, then we ‘re proudly cursed Proudly cursed Blacker than the blackest black Dark as a night without an end Long shadows this void As Nightmares and horrors blend A brilliantly dark and spiteful creed Blessed by the kiss of Lilith At the place where night and hell will meet She gave birth to us the blackest breed The blackest breed |

Carcass Symphony Lyrics Nephente At dusk they will awake A ghost dance ball room As the sun is slaked At dusk they spring to life And their damp grey concrete hive Bathing in fluorescent light Temples with worms Praying they’ll be butterflies To be able to move like the wind If only for a while In the glistering halls dead bodies swing to the melody Crystal mirror walls, reflecting the carcass symphony In the lost souls ball room where dead tissue breathe Dead they all seem, dead they all are, dead to me I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief In the glistering halls dead you are invisible They never see anyone, they stare right through Among the crystal pillars the insects play make-believe I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief Crystal mirrors reflecting unseeing eyes Crimson lipped mouths spitting their lies They are all lost, they are all hollow They are empty inside Stay away from them Ignore their siren songs These genderless whores Pass by their temples, forever walk on In the glistering halls clod flesh swing, A ghost dance for the false Cystal mirror walls, entangled in lies On and on the waltz on We the sulphur kissed The ones to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and battle worn The sweet promise of grandeur In defiance of and end that must come In the ghost dance ball room Where the soothing lies are sung I am rather the sulphur kissed The one to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and the battle worn We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path twilit We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path of twilight |

That the black poison dripped onto our skin would burn us That the clean streams of time wouldn’t be able to wash it away... Once these robes were worn as masquerade costumes The smooth velvet reviled hooks and razor claws That would not come of, cutting into the skin The harder we pulled the deeper its barbs dug in... Until death do us part my fair ones We’re the kings and queens of the depraved undone In the filthy streets, our splendid court, this neon Babylon We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar, we are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar, side by side we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar, the last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar, our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed All words were first spoken then stolen Onto paper splattered By the weakened hand in the dark room Visions and a life lay scattered We are suns bent for darkness The stars that refuse to shine Artists of a different kind The ones that leave nothing behind There is no clean white bed, for this dying bride Farewell... We left our last pieces to be lost In forgotten dusty attics Where our blood has dried We were the ashen nectar fanatics There will nothing left when we leave Our shadowy art will remain unseen As we step through the haze Silhouettes exiting this dream We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar We are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar Side by side, we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar The last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar Our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed |

Boulevard Black Lyrics Nephente Death like, pale graceful ballet In silence drawing near For a second mere Forlorn silhouettes For an instant there Only to disappear, forever changing all and the few that see, and still believe Sweet, painful, fragile Dreams... A haven of chaos So scarred and so alone Walking dead Lost in streets unknown We were once the invisible ones Those that spoke and no one heard Ghosts dancing in silver lit nights And never to return to this world Ivory and dye, Delicate porcelain calm these façades Lost in rain relentless The brilliant and shining few Who once drowned amongst the grey Spite the pain and whipping rain Chose to walk these lesser travelled ways Away! Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts Walk on to new rivers The ones of old ran dry Their barren depths unveiled Crystal streams fell prey to the hands of time Days and nights go by, one by one Like water slipping through tired fingers Precious gems stolen from idle hands Small pieces of the sun, now lost Adrift in eternal darkness Breathing in the gloom Walking darkened gardens Where only shadows bloom Oh this world looks so different now a little more dies with every passing day Every minute steals a colour flawing beauty in all ways Memories start to dither, One by one Dreams fall to splinters, One by one Seems like I am dying No air for these lungs It feels like I am dying So far from home Beneath the celestial canopy Angel wings and demon seeds Beneath the celestial canopy The legions march with me We walk the boulevard black Across these fields of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk down boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We walk down Boulevard so black An endless stream of time, this finite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown back to where we came from Praised be those of silence The blood tainted ivory innocence Praised be those that differ Blessed be the children of the fall Those that walk the boulevard black The legions of the left hand avenue An ode to the fallen An ode to for the lost An ode to the stranded To those that still burn All of the chains are splintered Those that woke are walking, fairlight All of my dreams are dead now All golden lies are lead now All of my angels have fallen We walk this earth like ghosts All of my angels are fallen All of my angels are beautiful Sing to me oh you sweet bleeding planet Sing to us that walk your ruins Sing to us for our words are dead Sing to us for their world is dead to us // An ode for the thinning breed of angels For their crimson lips and tangled feathers Majestic wings are spread climbing the sun One for the reason in reasoning no more Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts And we are like fire flies, Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time... But for a second mere we glared For an instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well... We walk down Boulevard so black an endless stream of time, this fi nite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown, back to where we came from We walk down boulevard black Across these fields of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk the boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We are like fire flies Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time... But for a second mere we glared For a shining instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well... At the end of a black boulevard. |

Clutching her legs in the pained caress Tears cried for everything Fall unseen But you were never quite alone... Dry your red cried eyes Stay another while Please... Born from in shadows Fuelled by their disdain Solitude triumphant The ones that wouldn’t change Into the fire Into the world alit We bring desire The unspoken truth of slit wrists Across the chasm From unseen to majesty Across the chasm From ideals to atrocity In truth you are Perfection to envy gods So undivine by choice Sweet salty skin With eyes of midnight skies So frail her muted voice So beautiful To me Rising from the shadows Creatures so depraved For aeons we hungered We are the children of cain So you were never alone! Born in shadows Fuelled by their disdain Solitude triumphant The ones that wouldn’t change Across the chasm From unseen to majesty Across the chasm From ideals to atrocity To me you are Perfection to envy gods So undivine by choice Sweet angel kin With eyes of midnight skies So frail her muted voice So divine Dry your red cried eyes Stay another while please... Now let me just ask you Did you ever feel out of place and always so alone That they were right and that you always seemed to be so wrong My dear So did I I just wonder Well now who gave them all the rights when you seemed to have none You are a precious soul in our twisted storm standing millions strong Kära du I hope their gods will forgive them We’re invoking the bliss of oblivion The communion of lost souls Sweet and sinful Across the chasm of morals Sweet and sinful Away from their norms and strains Into the sinful domain Oh yes you are Perfection to envy gods So undivine by choice Oh precious bird With eyes of midnight skies So frail your muted voice So divine |

2. | White Noise Sky in Overdrive | 05:30 | Show lyrics |
Lyrics Nephente The fading lumicance These cracking facades Nails dig so deep As reason breaks away Horrendous this curse bestowed upon me Contrasting the beauty that used to be So devastating is the loss of life’s melody High above the radiance is gone The transmission has finally come to an end A whitenoise sky in overdrive An existance in monochrome A whitenoise sky in overdrive In grey i bathe beneath the dome Life noir This is a black dying star Life noir In the end we will all know who we are Life noir Bleak skies to reveal the scars Life noir With all colours paling And contrasts fading The desertion of all meaning So useless and demeaning With the demise of dreams Everything is what it seems The pointlessness of being The loss of visions for the seeing Monochrome is my soul Grey, grey, grey, grey! Tired hands let the cards rest And the ink slowly dries to dust A weary heart loses it rhythm Devastating the loss of existence melody Such a subtle shift To tear away the mind from the flesh There can be nothing worse Nothing more faul, nothing more perverse Than to finally grasp it all, and find it absurd The grand play lost a character the script leapt another way With the whitenoise sky as his only witxness he was cast away Far away! |

In the year of 1859 Born was a shadow of light In garden where the darkness grew In the garden of sophisticated lies In the realm of ever reigning gloom Where the gardeners trimed the vines Born was a shadow and regal he grew A majestic silhouette to dim their night Oh, dark was the carpet woven Flawed was their perfect design A tapestry destined to be torn One truth and their kingdom was no more A shadow in the garden of darkness One of a light as dark as the heart of the night A shadow born in the garden of lies One of a light as dark as the heart of the night Their garden was of such a delightful darkness Such a relief for eyes that never wanted to see And the less they saw, the more they believed A shadow in the garden of darkness! An empire of eternal lies By the flare of a thought watch it ignite the skyline An aeon of enslavement and strife Like bonfires temple flames lick the night sky Oh, dark was the carpet woven Flawed was their perfect design A tapestry destined to be torn Oh A shadow in the garden of darkness One of a light as dark as the heart of the night A shadow born in the garden of lies One of a light as dark as the heart of the night There can be nothing darker Than a night presented to be the day There can be nothing fouler Than the lie in the guise of truth The truth |

In growing numbers They head into the night Familiar silhouettes Of beloved ones drifting by With every passing shadow I wish I was wrong About where they are going And what they will find out there A thousand throats Screaming in silence Slit speechless by her descent The echo of heavens crashing The massive thunder of falling feathers One who does not curse death has not truely loved If I had gods this would be when I would have prayed to them If I had gods This would be when I would raced up to face them I’d cut out their eyes Just as these tears made me fumbling blind I’d tear out their hearts Just as they robbed me of mine and I’d cast them down to die I wish I was wrong About why they left I wish that I could believe That there would in fact be Someone to meet them Someont to bring them all home A thousand throats Screaming in silence Slit speechless by her descent The echo of heavens crashing The massive thunder of falling feathers He who does not denounce his gods has not learnt the meaning of loss I have cursed death And I have known love I’ve slain my gods Only emptiness above Light like vapour I was drifting next to thee Massive the weight as I took my leave I have cursed death And I have known love I’ve slain my gods Only emptiness above Light like vapour you were drifting next to me Massive the weight as you took your leave |

To some this is an abyss To others a barren shore For all a place of no return Where no path lead onwards When words fall short So weak, so frail and futile And the soul is covered by frost Standing at the crossroads of the lost Rapid these waters Such promising alure A final release From what cannot be endured Such a ghastly glow Bestowed upon the one that let go Welcoming hands The river’s cold embrace A cleansing numbness My “I” is ereased Such an eerie flow Thoughts cease, pulled down below Towards release At the bottom of the crystal artery At the bottom of an end Under the weight of all failures Towards the bottom of the crystal artery So slow the descent to a dark end So slow the descent to the unescapbale end At the bottom of the crystal artery The only escape from the limbo Is down into the alluring depths Only by reaching the bottom Where rock and feet can meet Only then can escape be reached One push up and ahead One kick to break free from the dead The darkness never looked brighter Rapid these waters Such promising alure A final release From what cannot be endured Such a ghastly glow Bestowd upon the one that let go Welcoming hands The river’s cold embrace A cleansing numbness My “I” is ereased Such an eerie flow Thoughts cease, pulled down below Towards release At the bottom of the crystal artery At the bottom of an end Under the weight of all failures Towards the bottom of the crystal artery So slow the descent to a dark end So slow the descent to the unescapable end At the bottom of the crystal artery I push free |

These are blood soaked lands With memories...

Shadows and Snow From these fierce whipping winds We are all hardened and shaped Shadows and snow From which we’re carved and born Origin and our bourn Origin and our bourn And we can see! I have walked the endless path, to meet myself I have walked the endless darkness, to set your echoes free I have heard the hymn of the world, it lacks words and melody In the shadows and frost I found them, which ones they used to be Used to be! These are blood soak lands With memories!

All and everything, will be nothing, only darkness, and cold The scorching rays of daytime The guilt laid in plain sight Every belief will be so proven false, as the universe is no more The cycle will end, darkness eternal Darkness and cold they shall prevail It shall quench the hurt, the guilt and all sins It will forgive us The cycle will end, cold is eternal Darkness and cold they will remain It shall slake the moon, the stars and the sun And in the end forgive us For what we’ve become As the sword of midnight Splits the shield of daylight And twilight gushes forth from ancient wounds Upon eternity... Whatever the roots of your sins One day they will all be absolved By darkness eternal absorbed Every progress will be proven useless Every god will be just as dead as you and me The cycle will end, darkness eternal Darkness and cold they shall prevail It shall quench the hurt, the guilt and all sins It will forgive us The cycle will end, cold is eternal Darkness and cold they will remain It shall slake the moon, the stars and the sun And in the end forgive us For what we’ve become |

1. | Elegance and Sin | 05:40 | Show lyrics |
Heed the burning beckoning call Sever those disgustful lies that bind Come let your craving guide you to your kind Let rapture and depravity lift you high Into sin! Feel the song of whips The cold chains of liberty Freedom on your knees Perversion they could not believe Be all that you have dreamt of Beneath the sign of the rose Yield to me delightful Embrace the endless dark I am chains You are lace We are skin Gods of the radiant kind I am pain I am comfort I’m ecstasy Sworn to the silence we are complete Let dark temptation guide you to our kind Let hunger and your bravery lift you high Perfectly flawed! In this our luxoria Elegance and wickedness The sting and flesh Pure artistry All our flaws shine perfectly Beyond the pale mundane The oath of silence keep your secret safe As you kneel delighted To us the proud benighted few I am chains You are lace And we are skin Gods of the radiant kind I am pain I am comfort I’m ecstasy Sworn to the silence we are complete The devastation Of innocence and lies The annihilation Of borders and fear Sweet salvation Mortals made gods Pure perversion We rise as one In flames Sworn to silence celebrating trust Worshipping our lust Be all that you’ve dreamt of Beneath the sign of the rose Yield to me delightful embrace the endless dark I am chains You are lace And we are skin Gods of the radiant kind I am pain I am comfort I’m ecstasy Sworn to silence we are complete |

Be it storm or scorching sun Be it rain or snow I stand tall Be it peace or raging wars Be it drought or flood I stand tall I am the world I’m the eternal Fraxinus Excelsior I tower unbreakable Fraxinus Excelsior I stand fast unshakable My roots burrow deep I stood when time began I reach the realm of men I stand forever past the end I reach the abode of gods I am the sky and land I touch the condemned I obliterate and I amend Without me nothing I am the beginning and end Without me nothing I am the answer to any question Fraxinus Excelsior I hold the sky and the stars Fraxinus Excelsior I am the blood soaked earth My roots burrow deep I stood when time began I reach the realm of men I stand forever past the end I reach the abode of gods I am the sky and land I touch the condemned I obliterate and I amend Mortal oaths have been sworn in my shade And none would last... Honour sold for gold kinsmen’ trust traded for glory and a song... I do mourn But never cry Unbreakable Without me nothing I am the beginning and end Without me nothing I am the answer to any question My roots burrow deep I stood when time began I reach the realm of men I stand forever past the end I reach the abode of gods I am the sky and land I touch the condemned I obliterate and I amend |

4. | Shadow Walkers | 05:35 | Show lyrics |
As autumn comes Cold is her breath Of fire her colours Of frost is her embrace Silent are all angels As she’s striding by In her wake only snow Pure and dead she rise As the memory of summer stands aflame Gone the warmth of a better yesterday Facing the dawn, cold and alone Dim the stars that shine so distant Vain are we all, but no gods to judge us For mourning times of hope and lesser hurt Be it know that our kind will never die We take but one step back into the shadows As winter comes Frozen are her lips Of grey her colours Deadly her embrace Gone are all the angels As she’s drifting by In her wake but nothingness All still as she rise As the memory of summer stands aflame Gone the warmth of a better yesterday Facing the dawn, cold and alone Dim the stars that shine so distant Vain are we all, but whom to judge us For mourning times of hope and lesser hurt Be it know that our kind will never die We take but one step back into the shadows |

5. | Along the Colonnades | 11:38 | Show lyrics |
Unloved the sun settles slowly Upon this my realm where all colours have fled Storms looming the bleak horizon Black thunder draws close as I fall I remember my blood aflame A feverish dream from which I fell asleep I could hear how the mountains sing So evident and true, of balance and symmetry My ashen skin falls like snow Searing the flames of a truth so pure Bare blood soaked feet Illusion fades and enchantment takes its place Rise to awake from slumber Aflame like an evening sky Evolved, at one with all Now I see what was always so obscure Never there shall be one, to whom I bow From the slumber revived Awakening dawn, opening eyes A world clear, blooming as spring Evident and lustrous, bursting with life All past lies are cleansed Only tomorrow and now still remain Walking along the colonnades Under the sun New gods come alive I was awake , But within a dream I was aware but only of shadows’ play I am reborn, I am renewed I am the purest seed of vision Walking along the colonnades As if for the first time, I face the sun From the slumber revived Awakening dawn, opening eyes A world clear, blooming as spring Evident and lustrous, bursting with life All past lies are cleansed Only tomorrow and now still remain Walking along the colonnades Under the sun, New gods come alive Footsteps dark and old, giants walked before me Statues of perfection, monuments of inspiration, to me Never there shall be one, to whom I bow From the slumber revived Awakening dawn, opening eyes A world clear, blooming as spring Evident and lustrous, bursting with life All past lies are cleansed Only tomorrow and now still remain Walking along the colonnades Under the sun New gods come alive |

6. | Of the Setting Sun | 05:09 | Show lyrics |
Your past now stands aflame Grey ruins line your empty roads Barren dusty soils The dead now claim these lands I come with the setting sun One of hope come undone I am the one of shadows domain Time pass yet I remain I am near as life stands ablaze The ashes you claim to be memories Dust of what used to be A vision only you can seek I’m the dark in your lingering thought The storm that will sweep your dreams away I’m the one that will make you see I am the loss, I am the key I am eternal I am close I’m infernal I am all ghosts Of all choices wrongly made Of all hurt ever inflicted The loss I shall open your eyes I am the heart of all smitten lovers A creature of all pain they felt A shadow of all those betrayed The ghastly beast, your past One of hope come undone Time pass yet I remain I am near as life stands ablaze The ashes you claim to be memories Dust of what used to be A vision only you can seek I’m the dark in your lingering thought The storm that will sweep your dreams away I’m the one that will make you see I am the loss, I am the key I am the rider of the setting sun The past |

The fire seemed forgotten Though embers always glowed As winds sang my name I’ve always felt I had to go Where elders walked before me Beyond the realm of snow To a place my heart is longing I was born a windward soul Beyond lands of shadows To where the rivers meet raging seas Beyond the trees and meadows The vast has called for me Windward spirit Imperial state of mind The wayward walker Leaving the grasp of time Windward spirits Above the seas and fields The wayward walkers Ferocious we leave Wanderlust Waywards, windwards Forever onwards To leave what’s familiar Where dust has set on idle stone Go and find your ocean In the black unknown Windward spirit Imperial state of mind The wayward walker Leaving the grasp of time Windward spirits Above the seas and fields The wayward walkers Ferocious we leave Come feel what they couldn’t feel And see what they couldn’t see Old truths are only beliefs Become what they could never be So rise from every fall Facing the wind, my wayward one Be true, scarred and strong I know your journey’s just begun My windward one |

2. | Sculptors and Spectres | 06:22 | Show lyrics |
I have wandered where old eyes can’t see Where great thunder is rolling in from the north A ghost town along the unknown An endless processions in a desert of snow Dare the night to claim and reap the day Beauty concealed in nothing Beyond the perfection The night stars shall be your crown In the eyes of a dying god Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall Divine aegis are shackles Ungodly the weapon of thought See your true soul reflected What you’ve become And why you must always go on The enigma of alpha omega To hunger for more, for nothing, and for all The grave a solemn promise to the unliving Onward pursuit towards a grander state To some a curse, to some a better fate Come bend the wind to your will now Come sculptor the future and fate of your days Come rise above all the bleak souls Come light up the beacon and lead your own way Dare the night to claim and reap the day In the eyes of a dying god Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall Divine aegis are shackles Ungodly the weapon of thought See your true soul reflected What you’ve become and why you must always go on |

When traversing the endless In search for the hidden, glorious heights And the meaning concealed The passage begins without light And the search will estrange you Yearning to learn what’s hidden by lore How this journey will change you A first step that’s followed by countless of more When bewildered yet lucid Only as lost you can see Towering as you behold them Great distant giants, the ancient creed And this search will estrange you Yearning to learn the wisdom of yore How this journey will change you Up every mountain, along every shore And one day you shall find The pillars of the sky Those that venture through the night How they burn, with purpose and resolve The darkest of the dark, the brightest of bright With glorious flames they ride In a world lost to treason Shapes of the greater, that dared and who died Grand giants overlooking the vast never ending The pillars of the sky At their feet lie the masses Those like us, who craved to arise As they fell all before them Triumph or death for the pillars of the sky Past the edge of the forest Far beyond the emerald fields Where storms rage unhindered And free Forever they stand The pillars of the sky |

1. | Pale Flames on the Horizon | 02:18 | Show lyrics |
Gaze into the darkness From this shadowy abode A flame far out in the void A glimpse of the beyond Like an old awakening sentience Some fragment of eternity Altering all perspectives of the world known An elusive meaning Deeper than everything you had once believed in From a tired slumber something inside awoke As pale flames dance high, Leading you onwards To find the hidden origins On the brim of the sky By thunder awake Let lightning lead To the highest peak, Into the deepest precipices I am the rising tide The approaching storm The avalanche I am the voyage grand |

2. | Hinterlands | 07:51 | Show lyrics |
Through the winding maze of hollow whispers My path lies narrow but shining to me clear A stark existence been trapped for endless ages Yet through my visions I’ve travelled everywhere I’ve travelled everywhere Come dare the night my kindred Come shed these fears of old All restless souls who dreamt to wander freely To navigate the oceans by radiant stars aligned Where long lost gods speak through raging winds To us… On the banks of the everflow I drank this earthen stream Held secret from the blinded Who never dared this dream We rose where summers come to die The heart of winter, the frozen hinterlands We stem from shadows where mournful choirs sing Our barren hinterlands, where day and night are kin Entwined… From beyond where all roads end Where the coldest of rivers have their wells I stand ablaze in my darkness As I head into the night absolute I come from where nights lasting longer Where the frost is a heartbeat away Where the glory of summer is fleeting Where the fire inside is what saves you From decay… Pray the frost of my birthright won’t find you I stand vigilant and true to my course The nature’s my only superior Blood is what nourishes all that must grow Through the winding maze of hollow whispers My path lies narrow but shining to me clear A stark existence been trapped for endless ages Yet through my visions, I have travelled everywhere We rose where summers come to die The heart of winter, the frozen hinterlands We stem from shadows, where mournful choirs sing Our barren hinterlands, where day and night are kin Entwined |

Distant apparitions Panacea divine Perils and sorrows My all for a sight In pursuit of the light Or phantasms in vain Uneven my course But certain the pain All of those nights and days Doubt as my sole consort Infinite long my journey We walk alone Summers and winters pass through snow and across the seas, Endless the path I wander To the silvan shrine Cede did all my anger Cede did all my hurt Cede did all desire In wood, in dirt As stillness fell again And silence spoke anew Echoes of truths From eons ago In the silvan arms I rose With earth as my throne Past the woodland spires Towards the sky Traversing the endless I find myself renewed In dark ancient waters My reflection so true The grander perspective A cathedral of leaves A deeper sense of purpose And to offer my dream All of those nights and days Carving my voyage grand Infinite long my journey I walk alone Summers and winters pass Through snow and across the seas Endless the path I wander To the silvan shrine I march on |

Deep breaths of forever Sweet scent of emerald ripe Whispers, islands in silence In silvan arms we come back to life We wished for this darkness We wished for the night to go on (forever) To cover the scars Shadows have all hurt undone I know I’ll find a way And I know I’ll find a way (home) Cold the raging winds are weeping Down ruins of victories past So slow the river of life Of triumphs all memories so vague I wish for the wisdom I wish I could finally see (afar) Beyond all horizons And all that’s been hidden from me I know I’ll find a way And I know I’ll find a way (home) We will find a way And we will find a way Away… With ardor and resolve We delve into the vast unknown Onwards into the night We keep our blazing fires high The proudly few departed Journeymen in realms uncharted Onwards into the night Resiliant we rose from the silvan shrine And we march home |

Dead Grid Incantation Lyrics Nephente Screaming souls across the dead grid Blured faces and voices crystallized Beneath the ground howling choirs weep You shut down; to you it’s no longer real Who are you, why did you come here child?

The Blackest Breed Lyrics Nephente A brilliant dark and spiteful creed Blessed by the kiss of Lilith At the place where night and hell will meet She gave birth to us the blackest breed The darkness is our salvation now We have all become malice in wonderland The ghastly ones clad in deepest grief Blacker than the black in silence we speak The quiet defiant The blackest breed The silent defiant The blackest breed The arrogant creed The blackest breed Oh the blackest breed Oh the blackest breed With the passing of time we became the strangest of all birds in the sky With awakening minds we cast the chains and we are the unbound crime The vilest storms rage within the stillest minds The strongest hearts beat in the quiet kind Beware of us who always do observe We’ll never bow before you and we were not meant to serve The quiet defiant The blackest breed The silent defiant The Blackest breed The arrogant creed The blackest breed Oh the blackest breed Oh the blackest breed With the passing of life we became the epitome of sin and of rebellion We are the blood, we are the sweat, the lustful zest, the beast tuned flesh They say we are cursed. If so by whom? If so be it. Then so be it. Are we cursed for walking away from this useless world grey? Are we cursed for walking away from this stage and its twisted play? Are we cursed for shunning the absurd, then so be it, then we’re the cursed Are we cursed for despising the misled and their lies, then we ‘re proudly cursed Proudly cursed Blacker than the blackest black Dark as a night without an end Long shadows this void As Nightmares and horrors blend A brilliantly dark and spiteful creed Blessed by the kiss of Lilith At the place where night and hell will meet She gave birth to us the blackest breed The blackest breed |

Carcass Symphony Lyrics Nephente At dusk they will awake A ghost dance ball room As the sun is slaked At dusk they spring to life And their damp grey concrete hive Bathing in fluorescent light Temples with worms Praying they’ll be butterflies To be able to move like the wind If only for a while In the glistering halls dead bodies swing to the melody Crystal mirror walls, reflecting the carcass symphony In the lost souls ball room where dead tissue breathe Dead they all seem, dead they all are, dead to me I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief In the glistering halls dead you are invisible They never see anyone, they stare right through Among the crystal pillars the insects play make-believe I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief Crystal mirrors reflecting unseeing eyes Crimson lipped mouths spitting their lies They are all lost, they are all hollow They are empty inside Stay away from them Ignore their siren songs These genderless whores Pass by their temples, forever walk on In the glistering halls clod flesh swing, A ghost dance for the false Cystal mirror walls, entangled in lies On and on the waltz on We the sulphur kissed The ones to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and battle worn The sweet promise of grandeur In defiance of and end that must come In the ghost dance ball room Where the soothing lies are sung I am rather the sulphur kissed The one to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and the battle worn We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path twilit We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path of twilight |

Lighthouse Eternal (Laterna Magika) Lyrics Nephente This night is dark, black as hell itself This is the wolf hour, a sea ready to devouver Standing at the Shore, looking out Standing by the sea, forever looking for thee I have been standing by the sea, built to stand for forever As walls of water crash, I am stone, I will last Radiant my fiery eye, cutting through the night A solemn last promise, a barren unyielding light I might be the last light you see The first not to abandon thee Lighthouse Eternal, Laterna Magika No matter where you hoped to go No matter where you have been No matter what you hoped to find No matter what you have seen No matter what you hoped to achieve No matter what you have become No matter what you hoped to do No matter what you have done I will always find you not let a single soul go astray I will bring you home again Not one single soul will be left behind These winds once carried me too Back when I was so like you I left port in search for other shores I dared these waves when all else had failed Now I stand blacker than the night At a shore where no one should go My light will never falter, never fade When all else is lost, I remain Lighthouse Eternal, Laterna Magika No matter where you hoped to go No matter where you have been No matter what you hoped to find No matter what you have seen No matter what you hoped to achieve No matter what you have become No matter what you hoped to do No matter what you have done At the edge of this world of darkness This is the last port before it all ends For the stray ships cast the furtherst south of Eden No matter your flaws you are welcome here, No matter your sins or past my dear You are welcome home sweet fallen one I will bring you home again Lighthouse Eternal, lanterna magika |

Blood Orchid Lyrics Nephente Black cityscape Towering... Stone fangs tearing at the sky Putrid tears fall Black horrorscape Ghosts line these avenues These streets are trenches Ugly are these scars ...and filled with rats they are Filled with rats they are! There are choirs, a ghost vesper for hope Like whispers beyond the roaring machinery So few the flowers in these gardens of rust Nested they rest ‘neath the carpet of dust I stand to watch the leaving birds spread their wings They will leave high above the chaos, high above everything While I hide deep within my flesh fortress under siege Where neither teachings nor syringes can reach There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life A search for the blood orchid in the rusted gardens of mankind Autumn clutched in the earthen arms of summer’s growth Beneath the canopy of warmth Where stars beacons the weary and small Yet every garden bear the witness of coming fall Few are the flowers in the gardens of man In these sparkling gutters of neon Babylon Ghost dance amongst the fortunate whores Scared and maimed the pale stumble on… Blood Orchid There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined Blood Orchid There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined Blood Orchid I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life Blood Orchid A search for you in these rusted gardens of mankind I stand to watch the leaving birds spread their wings They will leave high above the chaos, high above everything While I hide deep within my flesh fortress under siege Where neither teachings nor syringes can reach There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life A search for the Blood Orchid in the rusted gardens of mankind Blood Orchid // |

Ashen Nectar Lyrics Nephente All aboard, this ship bound for wreckage Sail ho, fuckers! Who could foresee that this state of mind was forever? That we would never wake up from our nightmares? That the black poison dripped onto our skin would burn us That the clean streams of time wouldn’t be able to wash it away... Once these robes were worn as masquerade costumes The smooth velvet reviled hooks and razor claws That would not come of, cutting into the skin The harder we pulled the deeper its barbs dug in... Until death do us part my fair ones We’re the kings and queens of the depraved undone In the filthy streets, our splendid court, this neon Babylon We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar, we are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar, side by side we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar, the last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar, our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed All words were first spoken then stolen Onto paper splattered By the weakened hand in the dark room Visions and a life lay scattered We are suns bent for darkness The stars that refuse to shine Artists of a different kind The ones that leave nothing behind There is no clean white bed, for this dying bride Farewell... We left our last pieces to be lost In forgotten dusty attics Where our blood has dried We were the ashen nectar fanatics There will nothing left when we leave Our shadowy art will remain unseen As we step through the haze Silhouettes exiting this dream We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar We are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar Side by side, we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar The last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar Our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed |

Boulevard Black Lyrics Nephente Death like, pale graceful ballet In silence drawing near For a second mere Forlorn silhouettes For an instant there Only to disappear, forever changing all and the few that see, and still believe Sweet, painful, fragile Dreams... A haven of chaos So scarred and so alone Walking dead Lost in streets unknown We were once the invisible ones Those that spoke and no one heard Ghosts dancing in silver lit nights And never to return to this world Ivory and dye, Delicate porcelain calm these façades Lost in rain relentless The brilliant and shining few Who once drowned amongst the grey Spite the pain and whipping rain Chose to walk these lesser travelled ways Away! Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts Walk on to new rivers The ones of old ran dry Their barren depths unveiled Crystal streams fell prey to the hands of time Days and nights go by, one by one Like water slipping through tired fingers Precious gems stolen from idle hands Small pieces of the sun, now lost Adrift in eternal darkness Breathing in the gloom Walking darkened gardens Where only shadows bloom Oh this world looks so different now a little more dies with every passing day Every minute steals a colour flawing beauty in all ways Memories start to dither, One by one Dreams fall to splinters, One by one Seems like I am dying No air for these lungs It feels like I am dying So far from home Beneath the celestial canopy Angel wings and demon seeds Beneath the celestial canopy The legions march with me We walk the boulevard black Across these fields of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk down boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We walk down Boulevard so black An endless stream of time, this finite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown back to where we came from Praised be those of silence The blood tainted ivory innocence Praised be those that differ Blessed be the children of the fall Those that walk the boulevard black The legions of the left hand avenue An ode to the fallen An ode to for the lost An ode to the stranded To those that still burn All of the chains are splintered Those that woke are walking, fairlight All of my dreams are dead now All golden lies are lead now All of my angels have fallen We walk this earth like ghosts All of my angels are fallen All of my angels are beautiful Sing to me oh you sweet bleeding planet Sing to us that walk your ruins Sing to us for our words are dead Sing to us for their world is dead to us // An ode for the thinning breed of angels For their crimson lips and tangled feathers Majestic wings are spread climbing the sun One for the reason in reasoning no more Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts And we are like fire flies, Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time... But for a second mere we glared For an instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well... We walk down Boulevard so black an endless stream of time, this fi nite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown, back to where we came from We walk down boulevard black Across these fields of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk the boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We are like fire flies Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time... But for a second mere we glared For a shining instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well... At the end of a black boulevard. |

The Blackest Breed Lyrics Nephente A brilliant dark and spiteful creed Blessed by the kiss of Lilith At the place where night and hell will meet She gave birth to us the blackest breed The darkness is our salvation now We have all become malice in wonderland The ghastly ones clad in deepest grief Blacker than the black in silence we speak The quiet defiant The blackest breed The silent defiant The blackest breed The arrogant creed The blackest breed Oh the blackest breed Oh the blackest breed With the passing of time we became the strangest of all birds in the sky With awakening minds we cast the chains and we are the unbound crime The vilest storms rage within the stillest minds The strongest hearts beat in the quiet kind Beware of us who always do observe We’ll never bow before you and we were not meant to serve The quiet defiant The blackest breed The silent defiant The Blackest breed The arrogant creed The blackest breed Oh the blackest breed Oh the blackest breed With the passing of life we became the epitome of sin and of rebellion We are the blood, we are the sweat, the lustful zest, the beast tuned flesh They say we are cursed. If so by whom? If so be it. Then so be it. Are we cursed for walking away from this useless world grey? Are we cursed for walking away from this stage and its twisted play? Are we cursed for shunning the absurd, then so be it, then we’re the cursed Are we cursed for despising the misled and their lies, then we ‘re proudly cursed Proudly cursed Blacker than the blackest black Dark as a night without an end Long shadows this void As Nightmares and horrors blend A brilliantly dark and spiteful creed Blessed by the kiss of Lilith At the place where night and hell will meet She gave birth to us the blackest breed The blackest breed |

Carcass Symphony Lyrics Nephente At dusk they will awake A ghost dance ball room As the sun is slaked At dusk they spring to life And their damp grey concrete hive Bathing in fluorescent light Temples with worms Praying they’ll be butterflies To be able to move like the wind If only for a while In the glistering halls dead bodies swing to the melody Crystal mirror walls, reflecting the carcass symphony In the lost souls ball room where dead tissue breathe Dead they all seem, dead they all are, dead to me I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief In the glistering halls dead you are invisible They never see anyone, they stare right through Among the crystal pillars the insects play make-believe I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief Crystal mirrors reflecting unseeing eyes Crimson lipped mouths spitting their lies They are all lost, they are all hollow They are empty inside Stay away from them Ignore their siren songs These genderless whores Pass by their temples, forever walk on In the glistering halls clod flesh swing, A ghost dance for the false Cystal mirror walls, entangled in lies On and on the waltz on We the sulphur kissed The ones to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and battle worn The sweet promise of grandeur In defiance of and end that must come In the ghost dance ball room Where the soothing lies are sung I am rather the sulphur kissed The one to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and the battle worn We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path twilit We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path of twilight |

Are we cursed for shunning the absurd, then so be it, then we’re the cursed Are we cursed for despising the misled and their lies, then we ‘re proudly cursed Proudly cursed Blacker than the blackest black Dark as a night without an end Long shadows this void As Nightmares and horrors blend A brilliantly dark and spiteful creed Blessed by the kiss of Lilith At the place where night and hell will meet She gave birth to us the blackest breed The blackest breed |

Carcass Symphony Lyrics Nephente At dusk they will awake A ghost dance ball room As the sun is slaked At dusk they spring to life And their damp grey concrete hive Bathing in fluorescent light Temples with worms Praying they’ll be butterflies To be able to move like the wind If only for a while In the glistering halls dead bodies swing to the melody Crystal mirror walls, reflecting the carcass symphony In the lost souls ball room where dead tissue breathe Dead they all seem, dead they all are, dead to me I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief In the glistering halls dead you are invisible They never see anyone, they stare right through Among the crystal pillars the insects play make-believe I see broken dolls, their venomous smiles cover grief Crystal mirrors reflecting unseeing eyes Crimson lipped mouths spitting their lies They are all lost, they are all hollow They are empty inside Stay away from them Ignore their siren songs These genderless whores Pass by their temples, forever walk on In the glistering halls clod flesh swing, A ghost dance for the false Cystal mirror walls, entangled in lies On and on the waltz on We the sulphur kissed The ones to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and battle worn The sweet promise of grandeur In defiance of and end that must come In the ghost dance ball room Where the soothing lies are sung I am rather the sulphur kissed The one to walk the path twilit Among the living and torn Among the alive and the battle worn We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path twilit We are the proudly flawed The last children of the fall We are the sulphur kissed We walk the path of twilight |

Lighthouse Eternal (Laterna Magika) Lyrics Nephente This night is dark, black as hell itself This is the wolf hour, a sea ready to devouver Standing at the Shore, looking out Standing by the sea, forever looking for thee I have been standing by the sea, built to stand for forever As walls of water crash, I am stone, I will last Radiant my fiery eye, cutting through the night A solemn last promise, a barren unyielding light I might be the last light you see The first not to abandon thee Lighthouse Eternal, Laterna Magika No matter where you hoped to go No matter where you have been No matter what you hoped to find No matter what you have seen No matter what you hoped to achieve No matter what you have become No matter what you hoped to do No matter what you have done I will always find you not let a single soul go astray I will bring you home again Not one single soul will be left behind These winds once carried me too Back when I was so like you I left port in search for other shores I dared these waves when all else had failed Now I stand blacker than the night At a shore where no one should go My light will never falter, never fade When all else is lost, I remain Lighthouse Eternal, Laterna Magika No matter where you hoped to go No matter where you have been No matter what you hoped to find No matter what you have seen No matter what you hoped to achieve No matter what you have become No matter what you hoped to do No matter what you have done At the edge of this world of darkness This is the last port before it all ends For the stray ships cast the furtherst south of Eden No matter your flaws you are welcome here, No matter your sins or past my dear You are welcome home sweet fallen one I will bring you home again Lighthouse Eternal, lanterna magika |

There are choirs, a ghost vesper for hope Like whispers beyond the roaring machinery So few the flowers in these gardens of rust Nested they rest ‘neath the carpet of dust I stand to watch the leaving birds spread their wings They will leave high above the chaos, high above everything While I hide deep within my flesh fortress under siege Where neither teachings nor syringes can reach There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life A search for the blood orchid in the rusted gardens of mankind Autumn clutched in the earthen arms of summer’s growth Beneath the canopy of warmth Where stars beacons the weary and small Yet every garden bear the witness of coming fall Few are the flowers in the gardens of man In these sparkling gutters of neon Babylon Ghost dance amongst the fortunate whores Scared and maimed the pale stumble on… Blood Orchid There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined Blood Orchid There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined Blood Orchid I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life Blood Orchid A search for you in these rusted gardens of mankind I stand to watch the leaving birds spread their wings They will leave high above the chaos, high above everything While I hide deep within my flesh fortress under siege Where neither teachings nor syringes can reach There must be beauty beyond this rugged city where we’re confined There must be another meaning, greater than all their lies combined I’ve chosen another path, walking away from the strains of life A search for the Blood Orchid in the rusted gardens of mankind Blood Orchid // |

Ashen Nectar Lyrics Nephente All aboard, this ship bound for wreckage Sail ho, fuckers! Who could foresee that this state of mind was forever? That we would never wake up from our nightmares? That the black poison dripped onto our skin would burn us That the clean streams of time wouldn’t be able to wash it away... Once these robes were worn as masquerade costumes The smooth velvet reviled hooks and razor claws That would not come of, cutting into the skin The harder we pulled the deeper its barbs dug in... Until death do us part my fair ones We’re the kings and queens of the depraved undone In the filthy streets, our splendid court, this neon Babylon We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar, we are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar, side by side we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar, the last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar, our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed All words were first spoken then stolen Onto paper splattered By the weakened hand in the dark room Visions and a life lay scattered We are suns bent for darkness The stars that refuse to shine Artists of a different kind The ones that leave nothing behind There is no clean white bed, for this dying bride Farewell... We left our last pieces to be lost In forgotten dusty attics Where our blood has dried We were the ashen nectar fanatics There will nothing left when we leave Our shadowy art will remain unseen As we step through the haze Silhouettes exiting this dream We are the stars that refuse to shine No ships will navigate by our signs We are the tones that distort the chord In a world of perfection we are the flawed We are the birds with broken wings The useless ones, we don’t believe in anything We believe in no gods left high above And there will be no angels where we go We are the Ashen Nectar We are the tainted well We are the Ashen Nectar Side by side, we watch the world go by We are the Ashen Nectar The last poets of a dying breed We are Ashen Nectar Our skins our canvases, our paint the blood we bleed |

Boulevard Black Lyrics Nephente Death like, pale graceful ballet In silence drawing near For a second mere Forlorn silhouettes For an instant there Only to disappear, forever changing all and the few that see, and still believe Sweet, painful, fragile Dreams... A haven of chaos So scarred and so alone Walking dead Lost in streets unknown We were once the invisible ones Those that spoke and no one heard Ghosts dancing in silver lit nights And never to return to this world Ivory and dye, Delicate porcelain calm these façades Lost in rain relentless The brilliant and shining few Who once drowned amongst the grey Spite the pain and whipping rain Chose to walk these lesser travelled ways Away! Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts Walk on to new rivers The ones of old ran dry Their barren depths unveiled Crystal streams fell prey to the hands of time Days and nights go by, one by one Like water slipping through tired fingers Precious gems stolen from idle hands Small pieces of the sun, now lost Adrift in eternal darkness Breathing in the gloom Walking darkened gardens Where only shadows bloom Oh this world looks so different now a little more dies with every passing day Every minute steals a colour flawing beauty in all ways Memories start to dither, One by one Dreams fall to splinters, One by one Seems like I am dying No air for these lungs It feels like I am dying So far from home Beneath the celestial canopy Angel wings and demon seeds Beneath the celestial canopy The legions march with me We walk the boulevard black Across these fields of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk down boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We walk down Boulevard so black An endless stream of time, this finite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown back to where we came from Praised be those of silence The blood tainted ivory innocence Praised be those that differ Blessed be the children of the fall Those that walk the boulevard black The legions of the left hand avenue An ode to the fallen An ode to for the lost An ode to the stranded To those that still burn All of the chains are splintered Those that woke are walking, fairlight All of my dreams are dead now All golden lies are lead now All of my angels have fallen We walk this earth like ghosts All of my angels are fallen All of my angels are beautiful Sing to me oh you sweet bleeding planet Sing to us that walk your ruins Sing to us for our words are dead Sing to us for their world is dead to us // An ode for the thinning breed of angels For their crimson lips and tangled feathers Majestic wings are spread climbing the sun One for the reason in reasoning no more Walking down this road Many its winding turns A barren scar of stone Though all that stings and hurts And we are like fire flies, Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time... But for a second mere we glared For an instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well... We walk down Boulevard so black an endless stream of time, this fi nite march called life We walk down Boulevard so black this everflow into the unknown, back to where we came from We walk down boulevard black Across these fields of grey Like ghost adrift in gloom In search for other ways A place where we belong We walk the boulevard black An endless row of souls And we are marching home We are like fire flies Boldly daring the night And we dance for a radiant while Born to drift out of time... But for a second mere we glared For a shining instant we were there Before the last grain of sand fell No tears as I bid thee fare well... At the end of a black boulevard. |

This is the realm of the dead grid, step inside To the other place, where no one should ever go Welcome in to learn the things you shouldn’t Know. |

Lyrics Nephente The fading lumicance These cracking facades Nails dig so deep As reason breaks away Horrendous this curse bestowed upon me Contrasting the beauty that used to be So devastating is the loss of life’s melody High above the radiance is gone The transmission has finally come to an end A whitenoise sky in overdrive An existance in monochrome A whitenoise sky in overdrive In grey i bathe beneath the dome Life noir This is a black dying star Life noir In the end we will all know who we are Life noir Bleak skies to reveal the scars Life noir With all colours paling And contrasts fading The desertion of all meaning So useless and demeaning With the demise of dreams Everything is what it seems The pointlessness of being The loss of visions for the seeing Monochrome is my soul Grey, grey, grey, grey! Tired hands let the cards rest And the ink slowly dries to dust A weary heart loses it rhythm Devastating the loss of existence melody Such a subtle shift To tear away the mind from the flesh There can be nothing worse Nothing more faul, nothing more perverse Than to finally grasp it all, and find it absurd The grand play lost a character the script leapt another way With the whitenoise sky as his only witxness he was cast away Far away! |

In the year of 1859 Born was a shadow of light In garden where the darkness grew In the garden of sophisticated lies In the realm of ever reigning gloom Where the gardeners trimed the vines Born was a shadow and regal he grew A majestic silhouette to dim their night Oh, dark was the carpet woven Flawed was their perfect design A tapestry destined to be torn One truth and their kingdom was no more A shadow in the garden of darkness One of a light as dark as the heart of the night A shadow born in the garden of lies One of a light as dark as the heart of the night Their garden was of such a delightful darkness Such a relief for eyes that never wanted to see And the less they saw, the more they believed A shadow in the garden of darkness! An empire of eternal lies By the flare of a thought watch it ignite the skyline An aeon of enslavement and strife Like bonfires temple flames lick the night sky Oh, dark was the carpet woven Flawed was their perfect design A tapestry destined to be torn Oh A shadow in the garden of darkness One of a light as dark as the heart of the night A shadow born in the garden of lies One of a light as dark as the heart of the night There can be nothing darker Than a night presented to be the day There can be nothing fouler Than the lie in the guise of truth The truth |

In growing numbers They head into the night Familiar silhouettes Of beloved ones drifting by With every passing shadow I wish I was wrong About where they are going And what they will find out there A thousand throats Screaming in silence Slit speechless by her descent The echo of heavens crashing The massive thunder of falling feathers One who does not curse death has not truely loved If I had gods this would be when I would have prayed to them If I had gods This would be when I would raced up to face them I’d cut out their eyes Just as these tears made me fumbling blind I’d tear out their hearts Just as they robbed me of mine and I’d cast them down to die I wish I was wrong About why they left I wish that I could believe That there would in fact be Someone to meet them Someont to bring them all home A thousand throats Screaming in silence Slit speechless by her descent The echo of heavens crashing The massive thunder of falling feathers He who does not denounce his gods has not learnt the meaning of loss I have cursed death And I have known love I’ve slain my gods Only emptiness above Light like vapour I was drifting next to thee Massive the weight as I took my leave I have cursed death And I have known love I’ve slain my gods Only emptiness above Light like vapour you were drifting next to me Massive the weight as you took your leave |

To some this is an abyss To others a barren shore For all a place of no return Where no path lead onwards When words fall short So weak, so frail and futile And the soul is covered by frost Standing at the crossroads of the lost Rapid these waters Such promising alure A final release From what cannot be endured Such a ghastly glow Bestowed upon the one that let go Welcoming hands The river’s cold embrace A cleansing numbness My “I” is ereased Such an eerie flow Thoughts cease, pulled down below Towards release At the bottom of the crystal artery At the bottom of an end Under the weight of all failures Towards the bottom of the crystal artery So slow the descent to a dark end So slow the descent to the unescapbale end At the bottom of the crystal artery The only escape from the limbo Is down into the alluring depths Only by reaching the bottom Where rock and feet can meet Only then can escape be reached One push up and ahead One kick to break free from the dead The darkness never looked brighter Rapid these waters Such promising alure A final release From what cannot be endured Such a ghastly glow Bestowd upon the one that let go Welcoming hands The river’s cold embrace A cleansing numbness My “I” is ereased Such an eerie flow Thoughts cease, pulled down below Towards release At the bottom of the crystal artery At the bottom of an end Under the weight of all failures Towards the bottom of the crystal artery So slow the descent to a dark end So slow the descent to the unescapable end At the bottom of the crystal artery I push free |

Clutching her legs in the pained caress Tears cried for everything Fall unseen But you were never quite alone... Dry your red cried eyes Stay another while Please... Born from in shadows Fuelled by their disdain Solitude triumphant The ones that wouldn’t change Into the fire Into the world alit We bring desire The unspoken truth of slit wrists Across the chasm From unseen to majesty Across the chasm From ideals to atrocity In truth you are Perfection to envy gods So undivine by choice Sweet salty skin With eyes of midnight skies So frail her muted voice So beautiful To me Rising from the shadows Creatures so depraved For aeons we hungered We are the children of cain So you were never alone! Born in shadows Fuelled by their disdain Solitude triumphant The ones that wouldn’t change Across the chasm From unseen to majesty Across the chasm From ideals to atrocity To me you are Perfection to envy gods So undivine by choice Sweet angel kin With eyes of midnight skies So frail her muted voice So divine Dry your red cried eyes Stay another while please... Now let me just ask you Did you ever feel out of place and always so alone That they were right and that you always seemed to be so wrong My dear So did I I just wonder Well now who gave them all the rights when you seemed to have none You are a precious soul in our twisted storm standing millions strong Kära du I hope their gods will forgive them We’re invoking the bliss of oblivion The communion of lost souls Sweet and sinful Across the chasm of morals Sweet and sinful Away from their norms and strains Into the sinful domain Oh yes you are Perfection to envy gods So undivine by choice Oh precious bird With eyes of midnight skies So frail your muted voice So divine |

So resounding those promises broken They still echo through this my darkened realm Countless the days now since past Still lingering and long, the shadows they’ve cast On me! These are blood soaked lands With memories... Shadows and Snow From these fierce whipping winds We are all hardened and shaped Shadows and snow From which we’re carved and born Origin and our bourn Resounding those promises shattered They still echo through this my darkened realm These are blood soaked hands With memories! Shadows and Snow From these fierce whipping winds We are all hardened and shaped Shadows and snow From which we’re carved and born Origin and our bourn Origin and our bourn And we can see! I have walked the endless path, to meet myself I have walked the endless darkness, to set your echoes free I have heard the hymn of the world, it lacks words and melody In the shadows and frost I found them, which ones they used to be Used to be! These are blood soak lands With memories!

All and everything, will be nothing, only darkness, and cold The scorching rays of daytime The guilt laid in plain sight Every belief will be so proven false, as the universe is no more The cycle will end, darkness eternal Darkness and cold they shall prevail It shall quench the hurt, the guilt and all sins It will forgive us The cycle will end, cold is eternal Darkness and cold they will remain It shall slake the moon, the stars and the sun And in the end forgive us For what we’ve become As the sword of midnight Splits the shield of daylight And twilight gushes forth from ancient wounds Upon eternity... Whatever the roots of your sins One day they will all be absolved By darkness eternal absorbed Every progress will be proven useless Every god will be just as dead as you and me The cycle will end, darkness eternal Darkness and cold they shall prevail It shall quench the hurt, the guilt and all sins It will forgive us The cycle will end, cold is eternal Darkness and cold they will remain It shall slake the moon, the stars and the sun And in the end forgive us For what we’ve become |

Have you ever doubted The limits of who we are? Have you ever transcended Into what some of us are? You’re a story unread I shall read you word by word Your beauty will come alive Alit by abysmal fire In the gardens of man we shall thrive Oh we bring beauty to a world of stone In neon Babylon we shall flourish We are the wicked, we are the depraved Have you heard the call, the abysmal allure Of flesh and lust and hunger in a sinful embrace Have you heard the roar, the abysmal allure As limbs and bodies thrash, in depravity unite In pursuit of pleasure In challenge of your barriers Your beauty comes alive Alit by abysmal fire In the gardens of man we shall thrive Oh we bring beauty to a world of stone In neon Babylon we shall flourish We are the wicked, we are the depraved Have you heard the call, the abysmal allure Of flesh and lust and hunger in a sinful embrace Have you heard the roar, the abysmal allure As limbs and bodies thrash, in depravity unite Across every border, I will force every gate once barred shut Oh I shall have, every dark hidden corner explored through my flesh poetry Oh be my canvas in this my beastial artistry And be my colours, my brush, my carnal muse, my lust And where we go, others can only follow To where fires roar and wicked angels soar, for us all |

Oh, on this sea of mercury pale Only the sky, is of less luster Where waves are ripped and thrown Only my heart is more restless and torn Sorrow’s my vessel Sails woven of torn dreams Hurt is my wind My charts made of apathy Sorrow’s my vessel I set sail for the sea Guided by disbelief not to arrive but to leave I miss the person that you made me be I miss the beauty that you made me see I miss the king you made out of me And I miss the wonders you made me believe Oh sorrow’s my vessel sails woven of torn dreams Hurt is my wind My charts made of apathy Sorrow’s my vessel I set sail for the sea Guided by disbelief not to arrive but to leave |

My shores are rugged I am of the unfertile soils So harsh and bold my spirit My children born defiant Purify – amend, restore what liars crushed Rectify – Reason shall conquer and prevail Throughout the ages, come war, plague and death I never faltered, no never did I bend We’re born defiant, through fire, ice and snow No vain denial, shall ever dim these eyes We’re born defiant, we are the spirits free No weak denial, shall ever chain these souls, in sleep I can tell a thousand lies for what they are, endure a thousand years and never yield I can host any kin and kind, and every creed but those that poison people and turns them into sheep Under burning skies, my vengeful children strike Their towers shall sway and fall, into darkness Through the barred gates, swarm their halls A hammer swung at those that stole Purify – Intellect shall triumph Rectify – Thoughts not prayers lead the way Throughout the ages, come war, plague and death We never faltered, no never did we bend Under burning skies, my vengeful children strike Their towers shall sway and fall, into darkness Through the barred gates, swarm their halls A hammer swung at those that stole I am a land they could never tame These words are proof that they failed, ignorance begone They call it heathen, I call it free They call it Norse blasphemy, I call it me I am a land they could not understand Where minds are harder to darken, reason’s bastion They call it evil, I call it free I call it man over god, I call it me |

Heed the burning beckoning call Sever those disgustful lies that bind Come let your craving guide you to your kind Let rapture and depravity lift you high Into sin! Feel the song of whips The cold chains of liberty Freedom on your knees Perversion they could not believe Be all that you have dreamt of Beneath the sign of the rose Yield to me delightful Embrace the endless dark I am chains You are lace We are skin Gods of the radiant kind I am pain I am comfort I’m ecstasy Sworn to the silence we are complete Let dark temptation guide you to our kind Let hunger and your bravery lift you high Perfectly flawed! In this our luxoria Elegance and wickedness The sting and flesh Pure artistry All our flaws shine perfectly Beyond the pale mundane The oath of silence keep your secret safe As you kneel delighted To us the proud benighted few I am chains You are lace And we are skin Gods of the radiant kind I am pain I am comfort I’m ecstasy Sworn to the silence we are complete The devastation Of innocence and lies The annihilation Of borders and fear Sweet salvation Mortals made gods Pure perversion We rise as one In flames Sworn to silence celebrating trust Worshipping our lust Be all that you’ve dreamt of Beneath the sign of the rose Yield to me delightful embrace the endless dark I am chains You are lace And we are skin Gods of the radiant kind I am pain I am comfort I’m ecstasy Sworn to silence we are complete |

Be it storm or scorching sun Be it rain or snow I stand tall Be it peace or raging wars Be it drought or flood I stand tall I am the world I’m the eternal Fraxinus Excelsior I tower unbreakable Fraxinus Excelsior I stand fast unshakable My roots burrow deep I stood when time began I reach the realm of men I stand forever past the end I reach the abode of gods I am the sky and land I touch the condemned I obliterate and I amend Without me nothing I am the beginning and end Without me nothing I am the answer to any question Fraxinus Excelsior I hold the sky and the stars Fraxinus Excelsior I am the blood soaked earth My roots burrow deep I stood when time began I reach the realm of men I stand forever past the end I reach the abode of gods I am the sky and land I touch the condemned I obliterate and I amend Mortal oaths have been sworn in my shade And none would last... Honour sold for gold kinsmen’ trust traded for glory and a song... I do mourn But never cry Unbreakable Without me nothing I am the beginning and end Without me nothing I am the answer to any question My roots burrow deep I stood when time began I reach the realm of men I stand forever past the end I reach the abode of gods I am the sky and land I touch the condemned I obliterate and I amend |

As autumn comes Cold is her breath Of fire her colours Of frost is her embrace Silent are all angels As she’s striding by In her wake only snow Pure and dead she rise As the memory of summer stands aflame Gone the warmth of a better yesterday Facing the dawn, cold and alone Dim the stars that shine so distant Vain are we all, but no gods to judge us For mourning times of hope and lesser hurt Be it know that our kind will never die We take but one step back into the shadows As winter comes Frozen are her lips Of grey her colours Deadly her embrace Gone are all the angels As she’s drifting by In her wake but nothingness All still as she rise As the memory of summer stands aflame Gone the warmth of a better yesterday Facing the dawn, cold and alone Dim the stars that shine so distant Vain are we all, but whom to judge us For mourning times of hope and lesser hurt Be it know that our kind will never die We take but one step back into the shadows |

5. | Along the Colonnades | 11:38 | Show lyrics |
Unloved the sun settles slowly Upon this my realm where all colours have fled Storms looming the bleak horizon Black thunder draws close as I fall I remember my blood aflame A feverish dream from which I fell asleep I could hear how the mountains sing So evident and true, of balance and symmetry My ashen skin falls like snow Searing the flames of a truth so pure Bare blood soaked feet Illusion fades and enchantment takes its place Rise to awake from slumber Aflame like an evening sky Evolved, at one with all Now I see what was always so obscure Never there shall be one, to whom I bow From the slumber revived Awakening dawn, opening eyes A world clear, blooming as spring Evident and lustrous, bursting with life All past lies are cleansed Only tomorrow and now still remain Walking along the colonnades Under the sun New gods come alive I was awake , But within a dream I was aware but only of shadows’ play I am reborn, I am renewed I am the purest seed of vision Walking along the colonnades As if for the first time, I face the sun From the slumber revived Awakening dawn, opening eyes A world clear, blooming as spring Evident and lustrous, bursting with life All past lies are cleansed Only tomorrow and now still remain Walking along the colonnades Under the sun, New gods come alive Footsteps dark and old, giants walked before me Statues of perfection, monuments of inspiration, to me Never there shall be one, to whom I bow From the slumber revived Awakening dawn, opening eyes A world clear, blooming as spring Evident and lustrous, bursting with life All past lies are cleansed Only tomorrow and now still remain Walking along the colonnades Under the sun New gods come alive |

Your past now stands aflame Grey ruins line your empty roads Barren dusty soils The dead now claim these lands I come with the setting sun One of hope come undone I am the one of shadows domain Time pass yet I remain I am near as life stands ablaze The ashes you claim to be memories Dust of what used to be A vision only you can seek I’m the dark in your lingering thought The storm that will sweep your dreams away I’m the one that will make you see I am the loss, I am the key I am eternal I am close I’m infernal I am all ghosts Of all choices wrongly made Of all hurt ever inflicted The loss I shall open your eyes I am the heart of all smitten lovers A creature of all pain they felt A shadow of all those betrayed The ghastly beast, your past One of hope come undone Time pass yet I remain I am near as life stands ablaze The ashes you claim to be memories Dust of what used to be A vision only you can seek I’m the dark in your lingering thought The storm that will sweep your dreams away I’m the one that will make you see I am the loss, I am the key I am the rider of the setting sun The past |

The fire seemed forgotten Though embers always glowed As winds sang my name I’ve always felt I had to go Where elders walked before me Beyond the realm of snow To a place my heart is longing I was born a windward soul Beyond lands of shadows To where the rivers meet raging seas Beyond the trees and meadows The vast has called for me Windward spirit Imperial state of mind The wayward walker Leaving the grasp of time Windward spirits Above the seas and fields The wayward walkers Ferocious we leave Wanderlust Waywards, windwards Forever onwards To leave what’s familiar Where dust has set on idle stone Go and find your ocean In the black unknown Windward spirit Imperial state of mind The wayward walker Leaving the grasp of time Windward spirits Above the seas and fields The wayward walkers Ferocious we leave Come feel what they couldn’t feel And see what they couldn’t see Old truths are only beliefs Become what they could never be So rise from every fall Facing the wind, my wayward one Be true, scarred and strong I know your journey’s just begun My windward one |

I have wandered where old eyes can’t see Where great thunder is rolling in from the north A ghost town along the unknown An endless processions in a desert of snow Dare the night to claim and reap the day Beauty concealed in nothing Beyond the perfection The night stars shall be your crown In the eyes of a dying god Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall Divine aegis are shackles Ungodly the weapon of thought See your true soul reflected What you’ve become And why you must always go on The enigma of alpha omega To hunger for more, for nothing, and for all The grave a solemn promise to the unliving Onward pursuit towards a grander state To some a curse, to some a better fate Come bend the wind to your will now Come sculptor the future and fate of your days Come rise above all the bleak souls Come light up the beacon and lead your own way Dare the night to claim and reap the day In the eyes of a dying god Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall Divine aegis are shackles Ungodly the weapon of thought See your true soul reflected What you’ve become and why you must always go on |

I have wandered where old eyes can’t see Where great thunder is rolling in from the north A ghost town along the unknown An endless processions in a desert of snow Dare the night to claim and reap the day Beauty concealed in nothing Beyond the perfection The night stars shall be your crown In the eyes of a dying god Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall Divine aegis are shackles Ungodly the weapon of thought See your true soul reflected What you’ve become And why you must always go on The enigma of alpha omega To hunger for more, for nothing, and for all The grave a solemn promise to the unliving Onward pursuit towards a grander state To some a curse, to some a better fate Come bend the wind to your will now Come sculptor the future and fate of your days Come rise above all the bleak souls Come light up the beacon and lead your own way Dare the night to claim and reap the day In the eyes of a dying god Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall Divine aegis are shackles Ungodly the weapon of thought See your true soul reflected What you’ve become and why you must always go on |

When traversing the endless In search for the hidden, glorious heights And the meaning concealed The passage begins without light And the search will estrange you Yearning to learn what’s hidden by lore How this journey will change you A first step that’s followed by countless of more When bewildered yet lucid Only as lost you can see Towering as you behold them Great distant giants, the ancient creed And this search will estrange you Yearning to learn the wisdom of yore How this journey will change you Up every mountain, along every shore And one day you shall find The pillars of the sky Those that venture through the night How they burn, with purpose and resolve The darkest of the dark, the brightest of bright With glorious flames they ride In a world lost to treason Shapes of the greater, that dared and who died Grand giants overlooking the vast never ending The pillars of the sky At their feet lie the masses Those like us, who craved to arise As they fell all before them Triumph or death for the pillars of the sky Past the edge of the forest Far beyond the emerald fields Where storms rage unhindered And free Forever they stand The pillars of the sky |

Gaze into the darkness From this shadowy abode A flame far out in the void A glimpse of the beyond Like an old awakening sentience Some fragment of eternity Altering all perspectives of the world known An elusive meaning Deeper than everything you had once believed in From a tired slumber something inside awoke As pale flames dance high, Leading you onwards To find the hidden origins On the brim of the sky By thunder awake Let lightning lead To the highest peak, Into the deepest precipices I am the rising tide The approaching storm The avalanche I am the voyage grand |

Through the winding maze of hollow whispers My path lies narrow but shining to me clear A stark existence been trapped for endless ages Yet through my visions I’ve travelled everywhere I’ve travelled everywhere Come dare the night my kindred Come shed these fears of old All restless souls who dreamt to wander freely To navigate the oceans by radiant stars aligned Where long lost gods speak through raging winds To us… On the banks of the everflow I drank this earthen stream Held secret from the blinded Who never dared this dream We rose where summers come to die The heart of winter, the frozen hinterlands We stem from shadows where mournful choirs sing Our barren hinterlands, where day and night are kin Entwined… From beyond where all roads end Where the coldest of rivers have their wells I stand ablaze in my darkness As I head into the night absolute I come from where nights lasting longer Where the frost is a heartbeat away Where the glory of summer is fleeting Where the fire inside is what saves you From decay… Pray the frost of my birthright won’t find you I stand vigilant and true to my course The nature’s my only superior Blood is what nourishes all that must grow Through the winding maze of hollow whispers My path lies narrow but shining to me clear A stark existence been trapped for endless ages Yet through my visions, I have travelled everywhere We rose where summers come to die The heart of winter, the frozen hinterlands We stem from shadows, where mournful choirs sing Our barren hinterlands, where day and night are kin Entwined |
