Let Thy sword fall upon the necks of the feeble and the foolish Raise thy fist in glory, smash the crosses to thousand little pieces Give your commands unto the firestorms, may the flames caress the sky Lead the whirlwinds towards the masses and as harvested they shall fall Agony and fear arise in black shapes, both are here to torment the weak Listen how they cry for their "god" that never existed the way they thought He is not a saviour nor is he a king, never was and never shall be Only a coward without any reason to be a ruler This world shall be given to those who roam the paths of the dark Unseen This world shall be reborn to greet its true owners This world shall be laid in the shade of lightless day, dawnless morning Just give us Thy sword, it’ll be our scythe Just give us Thy sign, and we will be the Damnation All the honour is Yours I feel Thy unclean powers run through me A river of blood, all shed with our hands Faithfully we follow Thy commands |

Above the silvery shining surface of the water Beneath the breath of the cruelest breeze Through the foggy and untouchable blackness From the blackest rain that couldn’t freeze The shadows of my Lord approach The touch of the evening mist, colouring views black for my eyes to see The magical reign of the darkest infinity Thee I praise, the Mightiest one Proud I am to be Thy son Come and bring Thy shadows to veil my existence Let me become a permanent part of Thy kingdom Let me drown in the shades of Thy greatness May I feel Thy presence stronger than ever before May Thy flame embrace me like the waves embrace the shore Thou who art the ruler of the deepest Thou art merciless to those who don’t follow thy obscure paths But never to Your sons and daughters I give my life away and my soul is at Your hands... I descend into images so dark and deep As one with the night I sleep With rejoice I die and fade away For never again touches me the light of day Now darkness remains as eternal to me Blessed I am by His supremacy For there is a star enthroned in the forbidden side of the sky ...and that star is I! |

Rain falls black from the skies gray as tears they fell from the throne of the Almighty...Cosmos Beholding a star that has been lit above me I fall before its beauty In this rainraped evening the unknown stars shone to me the Ominous starlight creates a vision of a blackened rainbow By the ecstacy of mystic rainbow all veils open to me I saw the blasphemy - in natures purity I heard the blasphemy - in the birds singing With heavenly tone over lakes and the seas wherever there a heartbeat is "Follow the blackened rainbow to its end You will never wake to the sunrise in heaven" You will never see heaven. |

2. | The Unbounded Wrath | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
The sky has blessed us by revealing its obscure side from which the stars look upon us, begging to be taken away. For we are the ones who already fell from amongst them to weaken the light of day. To weaken the light of day! With the reality of blade we’ll cut the wings from your dreams. The mighty darkside mocks your saviour, laughs at his screams. We are the embodiment of war, we are the whip of Satan himself, we are the whirlwind upon your kind. Merciless towards you all we are with all the pride of a fallen star. Suffer, you christian bastards! We’ll force you to drink your own blood, and the last thing you’ll realize will be the cruelness in our eyes. The sky has blessed us by revealing its obscure side from which the stars look upon us, begging to be taken away. For we are the ones who already fell from amongst them to weaken the light of day. Shudder before the might of our Lord and His legions. Cry in pain when these claws of Death reach your heart. The wrath we hold within is strong enough to crush even mountains. Be ready to feel it, you’ll all die on your fucking knees! |

3. | My Somberness Surmounted | 04:45 | Show lyrics |
I close my eyes and your light is ignored, I entomb my memories and your words are forlorn. Subconscious walls imprison me no more The blade runs upon my skin, my hands become sore It must be the crasp of Death that pulls me under the surface over and over again. At last I’m setting myself apart from your useless ways, at last I forsake the burden you created for me. Your illusions are like dust to me, just some reflections of worthlessness. Hate breathes within me! I see thousand times farther than any of you can, you failed to sense the harvest which you’ve become. You revealed me the weakness in man! Bitter sweet is this view of solitude, take me but not my flesh. Confused I am by all these dark emotions, am I to sink in these infinite black oceans? I see cursed bodies dance around Devil’s Fire. My Dark Father, receive me, complete me, impale me with immortality. Immortality! |

4. | Of a Stormgrey Vision | 04:46 | Show lyrics |
Let thy sword fall upon the necks of the feeble and the foolish. Raise thy fist in glory and smash the crosses to thousand little pieces. Give your commands unto the firestorms, may the flames caress the sky. Lead the whirlwinds towards the masses and as harvested they shall fall. Agony and fear arise in black shapes, both are here to torment the weak. Listen how they cry for their "God" that never existed the way they thought. He is not a saviour nor is he a king, never was and never shall be. Only a coward without any reason to be a ruler. This world shall be given to those who roam the paths of the dark unseen. This world shall be reborn to greet its true owners. This world shall be laid in the shade of lightless day, dawnless morning. Just give us thy sword, it’ll be our scythe. Just give us thy sign and we will be the damnation. All the honour is yours, I feel thy unclean powers run through me. A river of blood, all shed with our hands, faithfully we follow thy commands. |

5. | He Awaits... | 03:55 | Show lyrics |
Take a look beyond this mortal world, can you see what awaits there on? Listen, can you hear those voices call your name? Different words but they all mean the same! Mean the same! Wooden gates are closing behind you, no turning back, walk onwards on your path. Coldwinds are blowing against your face, be prepared to feel the most gruesome grace. A place where the fire has its lair, you can’t turn away, you are already there burn with passion! Let the mist move aside, let it clear your sight. Can you feel His presence? Stars as His crown, mountains as his throne. This is your destiny for you are His own. He awaits... |

6. | Towards the Tempting Infinity | 04:00 | Show lyrics |
Enter through the door hiding in your dreams Step forth and explore our domains with mesmerized eyes Lift your hands towards us and invoke us from the deeps of your mind Open your eyes to behold The chalice is overflowing with blood With the blood from your arms Feel the thunders as they reach for you Welcome them on your knees Watch the shadows dance in that mist Hear how a nightly hymn bewitches And know that we are the ones who walk where stars never sleep Under the eyes of the Superior One Raging sound of the spiritstorm is closing in Death is calling you to bathe in eternal sin Tempting your most deepest desire Soul to burn in the everflaming fire Now, drink from the warm stream of your own blood Break down your mortal bonds and blaspheme the worthless one For your place is with us here where sun is never shown And the obscurity gives you everything you seek So you stand above the foolish and the weak Enter through the door hiding in your dreams Step forth and explore our domains with mesmerized eyes Lift your hands toward us and invoke us from the deeps of your mind Under the eyes of the Darkest One |

One thousand different rooms full of pain One thousand rooms full of different pain There are no words to describe all the horror Which these thick stonewalls have witnessed Voyaging into the ravines in their empty eyes You can observe all those Demons as they rise Experiencing the perverse form of true art All the poetry in dead flesh and suffocated love Listen carefully to the dialogue between your skin and these rusty blades Feel free to appreciate our ways to progress you Worship the blackened lights in our forwarded hearts As we turn your filthy body into a piece of art The desecration of god’s image is almost completed As your desperation enriches this masterpiece The symmetry of mutilation is worth marveling All the artists wait for your pulse to seize In the breathless flesh exhibition our loyality is comprised Through the materialising of sickness our praises are combined With the magnificience of this art we hail Thee, oh Satan!!! Listen carefully to the dialogue between your skin and these rusty blades Feel free to appreciate our ways to progress you Worship the blackened lights in our forwarded hearts As we turn your filthy body into a piece of art |

3. | Daemonolith | 06:23 | Show lyrics |
Each time I speak An angel falls beheaded from the heavens Each time my foot meets the soil The celestial fruits wither to dust I was the one to offer them my gifts Obsessive pearls for the absent generations When the old nations were hammered down I stood there strangling them to their final sleep Persistance has overcome In order to achieve the clearest triumphancy Seek not for the obvious nor the visible And thus, thou might become a part of me I am sure you must know me For I am the taste in the veins of those who enjoyed the carnage Halls beyond the blinded eyes The wells right in front of their souls Trapped in the current trails of simplicity Abandoned inner stigmas, now purely manifest The future is driven through my palms Your deficiency was painted by my speech The Master’s empyrean yearns for no rest I deliver the goblets of venom, two for each... One for your scattered bones And the other for your dreams I am the one offering you my gifts Obsessive pearls for the present generations |

4. | Netherworldly | 04:35 | Show lyrics |
In a spectrum of darker fantasies I absorbed the myriad auras With delusions harnessed in twisted solace The planets stepped down in pure homage For each of time I have cast the dice Beneath perfectly euclidean constellations My face is lined with sol’s demise And agonised through His transformations Unearthly... netherwordly Virtuous is every sin to meI master the crafts of dying In all of its sordid serenity I find life worth defying My contempt is for those in a dead human shell Netherwordly... unearthly Harboured I became in the shelter of His name Forever fedwith the ceremonial gloom The wawes of inferno are my sword, suffering is my shield The might of Hell is my guide on this endless slaughterfield The omnipotent colours of Armageddon are scathing indeed And the displayed, severed head of the Nazarene A skull undressed of all skin, isn’t it ravishing? |

5. | Of Predators and Preys | 06:02 | Show lyrics |
Disentangeled by abominations Strenghtened in every aspect through confrontations Hiding oneself from the sarcastic faces of this universe A fallen disciple burdened with confusion Conquered by an uncontrollable creed to scatter His delusion Plundered down to the spectral gorges of the earth Undisguised for the ignorant to see The splendour in such a profane conspiracy Imprisoned and lost in the untrodden maze... of predators and preys Cutting like a dagger hardened in His fire Afflictions and violations are freed in this void Possess an almighty eye to witness their choir And hunt down fools that have always decoyed Wingless and scattered, the slaves of submission In them, ideal serpent of death, waiting Lead by instincts like vermin on a carcassoppressed by the context; blessing of oblivion... Absence is present when the presence is absent Anxiously awaiting His millennia Slowly sowing the seeds of hysteria Captured in the strangling embrace... of predators and preys... Presence is absent when the absence is present Charged with misantrophy... This is how we hunt! |

6. | The Mirrored Deathwish Paranoia | 06:24 | Show lyrics |
Hidden horrors strive from the inner mind And all life is altered to sadness Rapture is now the painted crime Images are enriched with madness I watched as it opened right before me A vortex reflection of the mystery sea Where pain and pleasure do collide Where compassion shall never abide Here no beast hides his face behind a mask Here no hollow words are spoken There breathes no forgiveness No chains grow to be broken This would no mortal creation ever bear For the forlorn sins I hereby share I am a part of this dark and demonic feast The walls are laughing in the Temple Of The Beast Give me wings and give me horns Infest my heart with Thy morbid thorns Blind my sight with the infernal flame And I shall slaughter to honour Thy name |

7. | An Ode to the Bringer of Chaos | 07:10 | Show lyrics |
The night is our dawn - bestow us Thy spell Allow us to comprehend the august wisdom of Hell With insanity Thou have besmeared my mind Come forth, Thou art the father of our kind The agitator behind the walls of flames Behold these instruments of vengeance Curse forever this light-raped dimension Embrace it to death with Thy tyrannic ascension Crushing the skull of christ out of pure delight Grievance is the reward of this world forlorn The hellburn inside, guiding me to the pit and beyond Thy grasp squeezes my soul and never lets me go With a perverted smile upon our lips we observed The enemy bemoaned in the nectar of a dying world... Satan, Thou art to spill the wine of suicide Master, Thou art the razor upon their throats As marionettes of death in the arms of Mammon Or like flesh torn by the unhallowed dragon Malignant visions unfold, Thy age has begun Darkness is ours for Thy flame became our sun |

1. | The Circle of Six | 03:49 | Show lyrics |
This is our attempt to raise the tower of Babel! The sigil of Amon seals this covenant Six different bodies form the unity of one Blood is replaced by venom, skin by scales Morbidity reaches measures unreal... Insane Antagonists of the surrounding subhumanity Breaking the dove’s neck to manifest our intentions We desire... to demoralize the sanctity of life We climb higher... to tresspass against Jahve’s light Open wide are the lunar eyes Saturn is on the rise The acausal streams into the causal At the brink of supremacy we look at thee and laugh The most sinister energies besiege the kin of man Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve We invert the crucifix to skullfuck god with it Fist of annihilation out of control Spiritual, nonetheless effective Re-writing time with pandemonium’s quill At one with Lucifer’s pride, we made our kill The igneous serpents slither With their pulses synchronized Death may be gaining on us as well But we are not the crippled Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve |

2. | Mercurian Soulscapes | 04:10 | Show lyrics |
Demigodly creatures infiltrating the human race Embodied hellish energy behind a common front Aware of reality’s phantasmagoric nature We can see right through its manmade exterior Bearing the spark of purification Which’ll clothe all continents in a fiery veil Erasing the errors of the past Thus, making way for the future And reclaiming the dignity once lost Those sharing the goblet of deeper insight Can never be misled by any mortal word And so we wander in subterranean shadows Where the beams of biblical light fail to distract Like a pack of bicephalous wolves Patiently observing those we desire to hunt Fully prepared to unleash our innermost demons To violate, to ravish and to annihilate By sundown’s ghastly eminence we’ll assemble To bayonet each and every clerical heart And with the lifeblood of the first dead shepherd Our faces will be painted as an indication of triumph Enfolded by bleak auras Glowing with otherworldly splendour Upon the wings of inborn aspiration We shall soar high above the carcass fields Where fellow ravens peck holes in rotten skulls |

I am cause and effect, I absorb and reflect Picture an unbroken circle and you’ll comprehend what I am I have no beginning nor an end A stream of impure deeds that the holy resent I improve your fractured reality But only to deprive you of a crown I even build you towers But only to tear them down By my command The heaven bleeds a rain of arsenic tears And petty souls are put asunder Like two-thousand years old papyrus scrolls Ignorance=degeneration Your deletion lies in this equation Acknowledge your secret thirst for my existence For I can turn you into a god All the names of darkness are carved upon my skin I am an unsolved riddle, a myth of the gloomiest kind The fountain of excellence or the venom of mind Never has true euphoria been rooted in utopia Dip your face in acid and admire the new you There is illusion even in illusion But behold with my eyes to see clarity in confusion Be my scepter and I shall be your throne A Union Equilibrium, we’ll reign eternities as our own A thin line seperates madness and magnificience And together we are bound to balance upon it |

4. | My Twin of Disorder | 04:14 | Show lyrics |
From the coldness of the mirror Inhuman eyes stare back at me The blueprints of decadence are revealed Subconscious beast revels in aggression Knowing nothing of boundaries, My twin of disorder Killer of souls, a daemon if you will Inner machine of a destructive design As real as the air I breathe As concrete as the ground beneath He’s my reason to practise mayhem A right to express my hatred Absurdity! March through me Turn me into thy fortress The stronger you grow, the clearer I see No eyes shall I need in darkness Drawn into the perpetual greyness of emotions On the shoulders of a genocide I stand He carries the invisible jewels of wisdom He is more me than I am myself, My twin of disorder With open arms I shall confront the day When the dead forsake Gaia’s embrace All of the icons of light rotate half a circle And escape into nothingness Then we are no longer two But one and the same |

5. | Regained Planetary Possession | 04:24 | Show lyrics |
The lower the sun sinks, The larger each shadow grows on celestial soil Not suddenly but certainly The holy land is swallowed into new kind of tyranny The planet, like a thoroughly raped whore, Bled the demonic ones out from its core The tempest speaks in ominous tongues Of a tremendous havoc yet to come Worlds bend and even time devours itself hollow Inhale the blasphemous dance of the macrocosm With throes it gives birth to a strange constellation Emerging from the sea of distress Like a 21st century Leviathan The unseen legionaries, all-worldly possessors Now enter the skies over god’s paradise They dominate and they destroy They decide when the curtain shall fall (on our pityful existence) Mother earth already underwent the metamorphosis And so shall all her children Kissed by Thanatos and pulled to the grave Soldiers of Satan, the very emperors of this world Animosity embodies, new methods of torture surface Human despair is their amusement Nations fell pale before life’s nemesis On the expanded levels of awareness Compulsive behaviour breeds Give in to these imperatives And participate in self-destructive deeds |

6. | Antithesis | 04:44 | Show lyrics |
Spokesmen of slavery, The earth is barren where you stand Knee-deep in the quicksand of inability Yet, respect is what you demand Save your quotes and affected sermons ’coz stupidity has never impressed me Know that my windows aren’t walls like yours are And no act you engage in can do me harm Why such reluctance to discard the doctrines That are like talons tearing apart your within? Oh, the despair if god ever turned his back on you This catastrophe scenario of yours is making me amused You are but fools sacrificed at random In the twisted game of redemption It’s illogical to choose a path That will ultimately lead to one’s decline And still wish for a sip of monumentality’s wine In the same labyrinth of dilemmas we dwell To me it is a challenge, to you it is a hell Your kind may seek comfort in thraldom But I stand erect, holding high the banner of wisdom Rapists of dignity, Sowing your falsehood into young minds So arrogantly trusting your sanctity Though, the stab will come from behind You are but fools sacrificed at random In the twisted game of redemption It’s illogical to choose a path That will ultimately lead to one’s decline And still wish for a sip of monumentality’s wine |

7. | The Parody’s Zenith | 05:05 | Show lyrics |
All the way from Eden to Armageddon Such long the journey, not a single step taken Infested the planet like malignant tumors Still being the lowest of all terrestial lifeforms Welcome to the grand downward vortex Drowning in nightmares, fear is what we breathe A flickering flame of a candle is our existence Fading out, evermore insignificant In comparison with the living The dead seem rather fortunate We have engraved our own epitaph The last paragraph in the chronicles of man A scythe-bearing sun smiles at the tragedy Sheding a light of irony upon the failures of humanity Technology marches on As does the death of intelligence Towards a brand new Golgatha Where only one cross awaits us all Mankind... Cast aside... Deprived of life Tormented with the nails of extinction The last swing of the hammer concludes the parody Of a race poisoned by triviality And still some dare to ask: Will dawn follow this darkness? |

8. | Horns and Feathers | 05:03 | Show lyrics |
In the aftermath of another escape from reality Exhausted you lay, circled by nothingness You sank so deep... lacking the strength to surface again Miracles and revelations, or just hallusinations? God tends to speak only at the moments of weakness As ruins are easier to conquer Guilt batters with a killer’s fist Forcing you to confess your supposed sins Hoping for heaven, afraid of hell You sealed your decay with a shallow prayer How real can this revival be When it’s merely compensating your low self-esteem? Life-long submission seems to be the price of faith So, will the bleeding hearts give more than they take? Drifting with the winds out at the sea of deceit The fear of god is all you have No sign of the promised salvation An addict to punishment and restrain Paints horns and feathers within the same frames Helped up from the pit And thrown down into a deeper one |

9. | Iconoblast | 03:20 | Show lyrics |
Profoundly punished am I Bound to bear witness to this global masquerade In which kings and fools may be the same Theatrical innocence and whoredom are abloom In the rotten hierarchy fundamentally deaf to all truths Narrow is the path of the compassionate Vain is the philanthropic approach Making haste from the womb to the stage To star an incoherrent martyrplay I bow to Osiris-Typhon And to the grandeur of His ascendancy Within, about and beyond me I extol the sun-outshining Mercury That steals the feeble’s vision Consider me as a potential iconoblast As a gun pointed at your foreheads Without mercy and remorse I tread on the debris of benevolence And assault the most sacrosanct Corrupted to the core and, yet, so sinless Terminally short on dignity Just barely breathing in morality’s stranglehold If self-delusion was a crime, You’d be taken straight to the gallows Narrow is the path of the compassionate Vain is the philanthropic approach Making haste from the womb to the stage To star an incoherrent martyrplay Profoundly rewarded am I Stripped of all humane amidst this global masquerade |

Invite me or not - I will enter anyway Resist me or not - I will sculpt you all the same You are the soil opened for a grain An empty canvas that begs for paint Both venom and opium I am Drink of me while you can Call me madness or the redeemer It’s inconsequential for I am neither A nightmare this is but in dreams meet we not This window to reality you can’t nail shut In your eden within I am the tree of sin The point where speech ends and echoes begin Aberrant at heart, you must be erased The rigidness of mind - by progress replaced Both venom and opium I am Drink of me while you can Call me madness or the redeemer It’s inconsequential for I am neither On a paintrip to the center of existence The concept of commonness loses all meaning A piece of broken glass on evolution’s path It is now up to you: re-shaped or removed |

From the primal sediment of Athor I’ve built and moulded this body Thus, to the lower spheres I may descend To manifest myself before thee The rays of illumination Like spears I cast through thee By the burning Eye, re-awaken Sight Beaconed thy paths will be I, the logos of the Black Fire For the triumph of progress do strive Amidst the haze of obsolete notions Bright as the Dog-star I shine Conventionality I shall rend to shreds To banish all morals from thy temple of flesh For with each step beyond thy human reflection Verge thou evermore upon perfection The rays of illumination Like spears I cast through thee By the burning Eye, re-awaken Sight Beaconed thy paths will be Wisdom is the seedling of splendour Will - the condition for its growth Flourish it shall with persistence Though dwell it might ‘neath a wintry cloak As the torch of intuition I shall throw light upon thy way Guiding thee into the knowledge Of thy Three-tongued Flame |

Sensations of anguish swallow me whole Anxiety drills its way to the marrow The quill I dip in the red ink impure To compose poetry by which they are allured Mounted upon a three-legged horse My zest for life trudges forth An invitation to the phantoms unseen The kama-rupic rinds in betwixt and between Like souls of sinners in purgatory fires Striving to escape the jaws of demise The remnants of unbridled human desires Severed from matter by the kiss of the Scythe Concealed in the multitude of leeches Yearning to feed on my vitality I can sense the intensity of their hunger To consume what is still left of me Predatory functions inhabiting not flesh As if vicious thoughts were floating around Sharing the collective curse The compulsion of parasite paradigms Drained me dry and emptied my chalice Leaving but an echoing well behind Locked up I am in this dark chrysalis To hatch out devoid of body, soul and mind Wrapped in the multitude of leeches Yearning to feed on thy vitality Thou can sense the intensity of our hunger To consume what is still left of thee |

The source of splendour in forms manifold In whom the fathomless arcana turn aglow Eosphoros - The brightest heavenly eye Each tempest of doubt His grandeur makes subside All aeons entwine for He did arise The flame that without loss endlessly devides Like the sharpest sword is His unchallenged blaze That cuts from our way the cobweb of restraint Heralds, disciples and serpents we are The object and the channel for His powers Driven forth by the undying lust To surpass the frailties of ours And to go beyond every Ring-pass-not The true wisdom besmeared in black Waiting to be once unravelled By the insightful and the daring To be finally discovered Whereas He is the circle, we are at the center Too abstract to be defined, too concrete to be denied All aeons entwine for He did arise The flame that without loss endlessly devides You call Him Satan, the prince of darkness and death We call Him Satan, the eternal fountain of strength Whereas He is the circle, we are at the center Too abstract to be defined, too concrete to be denied |

With fear at heart you exhale your life And down, down, down you’ll stride Each impulse you’ve indulged Failure wears your ring Born a slave to wealth and fame Failure! Where’s your king? With the vortex streams of karmic gravity Sinking to the grosser realms beneath To the 8th sphere, the gutter of cosmos From whence arises none Not Hell but the globe of death Too dense for an eye to detect The place of complete dissolution Nature’s evolutionary absolution Like a fly captured in a jar Destined to dissolve you are Atom by atom, flaw by flaw Slowly ground in the teeth of All The shape of shadows and light Puts out the dying fires inside Another soul embraces its end Never to reborn again With fear at heart you exhale your life And down, down, down you’ll stride Each impulse you’ve indulged Failure wears your ring Born a slave to wealth and fame Failure! Where’s your king? With the vortex streams of karmic gravity Sinking to the grosser realms beneath To the 8th sphere, the furnace of cosmos From whence returns none |

We fell and were dressed in skin As beasts to roam this labyrinth The voice of the Cosmic Mind Still echoes in the depths inside Behold these carnal forms Against a background of gold With black aureoles Spirit and matter, the balance and the battle Polarity - the basis of all living and dead The dragon and the serpent, the higher and the lower Polarity - the basis of all written and said By a modern means to an ancient end To pour reason on the minds once bent The "I" is nought without the "AM" Awareness, light the wick in man Full of the hunger to absorb more And to shine it all forth With black aureoles Spirit and matter, the balance and the battle Polarity - the basis of all living and dead The dragon and the serpent, the higher and the lower Polarity - the basis of all written and said The warmth on our backs Is the same on your chest And the cold beneath our feet Is the one on your flesh |

We who were lifted from the moral swamp of man Stand with eyes turned upwards and ashes on our wings Arose we like titans in this immense heat of power That melted into creeks the shackles ’round our limbs The blazing light of Satan with passion we adore As there is not an emblem of wisdom more sublime So pure in its essence that a shadow it casts not But penetrates the body and the spirit alike Once marked as His own... Forever we now glow Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved Unharmed we’ll remain by the virtue of our oath Though fangs wound the flesh and venom fills the veins In this garden where we blossom with fully opened petals The things long forgotten are those about to dawn And the tips of our branches that stretch ever inwards Reach through the veil of being to touch the face of Naught On the path of Boundless Life... Death means not demise Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved How lost are they whose eyes never adapt To the darkness that reveals the treasures of the Self How cursed are they whose ears never adjust To the silence that recites the words we once forgot And how dead are they whose hearts never react To the forces that transfix all dimensions with their call Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved |

1. | Moving Mountains | 06:42 | Show lyrics |
As one rope loosens, another then tightens Far too long we’ve been strangled and tied This sick circle of shame must now finally break So that honour may again walk by our side Roamers of the path of many paths Now the hour has come for us to act With inhuman hatred and intensity To ram down the monoliths of fallacy At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for The ethics and laws that we deeply abhor Have left mere rust and rot in their wake So each such child of the holiest of lies Together with their fathers shall be slain The storm of rebellion will never calm down In the raging hearts of the truly devout So hold not a moment more thy fury back For swords are made to cut and daggers to stab At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for Enthralling is the scent of burning shrines And the sound of crumbling hierarchies As after this disgraceful time The true nature in us can once again breathe May lips wet with blood to the world now proclaim: At last the Beast if free and, verily, so shall remain! In the chanting winds of this glorious black night We hold the scalps of the crushed rulers high Without swaying a hammer or piling any stones Where once their towers stood we raise our own At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for |

Like puny insects without a destination In the mud of Malkuth these bodies crawl But our eyes are fixed beyond the horizon Where our sidereal thrones are towering tall Silent is the call to splendour in man Felt by billions yet indulged by few Inertia and ruin walk hand in hand In a world that idleness has consumed Equality is the ruthless slayer of liberty When those are beheaded that rise above Seemingly desirable it leads to constraint And all such deception we must renounce Just as beasts become men so shall kings turn into gods Life by life to slowly ascend towards the sanctum of stars Ekpyrosis, you may soon swallow us all But we shall not atone in your fatal flames For our fate is certain and will so strong That from your grasp we shall escape Like puny insects without a destination In the mud of Malkuth these bodies crawl But our minds are freed beyond the horizon Where sacred words sound through cosmic halls That which we yearn with force we’re to take For anything worthy is never handed down It is the heart and not will that must cave If you wish to touch the heavens unbound Only in the abyss true godhood is forged Through sacrifice and pain our passage goes Thus the road to glory remains uncrowded As the price for this is too great for most Just as beasts become men so shall kings turn into gods Life by life to slowly ascend towards the sanctum of stars |

Oh, old nightsky, how furious is thy ordnance When the edge of the crescent cuts thee in half I sense thy stare on my soul and substance While the cape of Neptune conceals our stars Inside a circle we form another out of flesh Awe mires with confusion as the planets align Gathered around him that bears the wreath In the darkness that drowns s like a rising tide From the icy peaks of Meru to the depths of the sea All this shall be yours if you now hearken to me Thevetat, the dragon among snakes Master crowned king with wisdom most veiled With lips shut share us the legacy The godly gnosis that twines about thee Sense of power pervades each thought As the pulse in our veins is quaking the ground The patterns of humility are condemned to fall By the arrows of spells shooting from our mouths Climb towards the roots of the inverted tree For to rise above the angels is your rightful destiny Thevetat, the dragon among snakes Master most august by foulness impaled With lips shut share us the legacy The godly gnosis that lives within thee Indeed we are here to stride as giants Instead of crawling in the dirt like infants May not our eminence be questioned by any heart For we truly possess the means to rend such apart |

Solely in Thy presence frely I breathe Set apart from the choking world of fetters Forlorn will be each vain objective Butchered all ingrained penitence Release me from all that is illusive From humanity grant relinquishment The shadow of Thy horns will keep me cold Sheltered from the treacherous warmth of matter I have given Thee my thoughts Thus them Thou wlil and shall conduct I have offered Theee my flesh Thus it Thou will and shall corrupt My mind is the temple of worship And body the altar of sacrifice By will and devotion is hastened The elevation above this mortal life Heed, Father in darkness, unto my wordless call And from mundade veils now strip this spirit bare As with deepest obeisance in my pounding heart I kneel before the scorching five-armed star Responding the unearthly vibrations This ego is medium for the sinister As prism to refract the dreadful rays Streaming from the Eyes of Chaos Madly with the thirst of a deserthound I drink from the river of satanic might Committed I am to perfect this crown Placed on my head by the hands of Thine Thou have set me upon this path Thus it I will and shall tread forth Thou have opened me these ralms Thus them I will and shall explore The rock I stand on can’t be moved For it rests upon Thy sanctity Each word of reverence I utter Shall pass my lips in awe for thee Heed, Father in darkness, unto my wordless call And from mundade veils now strip this spirit bare As with deepest obeisance in my pounding heart I kneel before the scorching five-armed star |

That which from chaos surfaced In chaos shall eventually drown Buried in the same restless womb From whence it once crept out Be it the most majesic mountain Or a leaf floating down a creek Both equally pulverized ino naught Under the merciless cosmic feet Prayers are but waste of breath They fade into the roaring storm And even if they reached a god Not one could match this force As Nothing consumes Everything The glasshouse of creation shall shatter and fal Like Lamia lurking by the cradle The Mother has nurtured Her child And as the hor of filicide is at hand She acts without a tear or a smile Accept the nature of the process Its monumentum can never cease Bend your knee, bow down your head Give praise to this grand release As Nothing consumes Everything The weeds of existence spring up no more From dream to reality From frail to perfection From extant to noumenal From one and one to none As Nothing consumes Everything No matter how sacred, all life must end |

I am many and we are one Seeketh I must and findeth we shall From the tunnels most abhorred I, the unclean, once crawled forth Dripping with fluids repulsive and vile Haunting the night, ravaging minds The stench of human fear is addictive A source of bliss there is in each victim Waiting for that moment so sweet to arrive When you are lost, that’s when I’ll strike I am many and we are one Taketh I must and feedeth we shall ...and feedeth we shall! Though I slash you open And brand my mantra on your skin It’s not your flesh I’m after But what lies deep within Only a fool would mistake this for a dream A death-struggle this is And resistance just strengthens me! No force, no light, no flame Just a dead soul in a living grave I am many and we are one Taketh I have and returneth we shall |

2. | With a Thorn in Our Hearts | 07:32 | Show lyrics |
From the shapeless seed of Death grew the most dreadful wonder Towering unseen over all existence Its roots are wrapped tight around Creation’s throat And God’s all faces drown in the shadow of its Crown In waking... In dreaming... In dreamless sleep we’re drawn By signs and fate towards that vast sinister source And the song of ravens will guide us forth Attempt to approach in hope of consolation And lost you’ll be in the freezing wasteland But come thirsting for unearthly strength And you may find the bliss that never ends Seasons rise, seasons fall Yet the Tree of Night is florescent forevermore A venomous thorn from its blackest bough Is buried deep in the chests of the chosen Piercing the side of the heart every time it beats Never to let us forget what we truly seek Sancti Satanae plena sunt omnia Letum et dolor lumen sunt in gloria Invoking... Beseeching... In prayer and rites we’re torn Reborn and slain again by that transforming force And the song of ravens keeps raging on! Come and harvest the fruit of rebellion Partake in the orgy of apotheosis To stand upright and to choose your own way Eat of this offering and nothing will be the same Kingdoms rise, kingdoms fall Yet the Tree of Night is florescent forevermore A venomous thorn from its blackest bough Is buried deep in the chests of the chosen Piercing the side of the heart every time it beats To wake us up from this cursed cosmic dream |

I fell... And I arose And fall I shall again, choosing so! The deeper the cut The dearer the scar Each arrow of strife just hardens my shield Replacing soul’s rags with an armour of steel I bleed... But not to atone Pain is my patron, ever be it so! Sealed is my fate, thus it I embrace It’s carved on my heart and runs through these veins Ignite me, Father, for I yearn to burn... The graver the loss The greater the gain Bane is a blessing to those who can see That no trees will rise unless the seeds cease to be Profanity’s lead turned to spiritual gold Through the death of vain roles true destinies unfold When you wish to liberate a man Destroy the world that surrounds him And when you seek to crown a god Slay that man that has bound him... Slay that man that has bound him... Still! |

Red is the winding way that leads me to the gate And black the path beyond running through unknown plains In the heat of combat, in all untamed love To fall like a warrior is to rise like the sun For the one that truly has awakened to know In the strangest patterns the cosmos unfolds Even the most wondrous chimeras of flesh In the eyes of a true beholder equal nothingness In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone With the wine of attainment the earth will be fed Where I shall once fall rewarded with death A thousand vultures will haunt that place Each taking a beakful until bare bones remain In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone Place thou upon my altar the head of humility And in a cup beside it the blood of mundane dreams In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone |

Climb, climb Make thy way up the spine Bless the crown with flames And midst them set thy throne Light, light The pyres of the sight By the virtue of this union The keys we now hold The one coiled about to spring Open that which is below To that which is above! The saviour within Adored are thou Rise, rise From the depths of the mind Awaken from the slumber For the hour has come High, high To the arch of the skies By the turning of the wheel Thy reign has begun The one dead but dreaming Open that which is above To that which is below! The saviour without Adored are thou |

6. | Wine Within | 04:38 | Show lyrics |
For aeons and aeons We’ve witnessed the journey of the sun And the moon voyaging across the sky And still we know that neither shine forever ...forever like we shine We keep the water of faith flowing For that is dead which stands still In the ceaseless act of going Hides the key to doing our will Wed are the lunar and the solar Silver and gold are mixed together The left and the right turned into one thing The wine within For countless ages We’ve experienced the wonder of birth And death cutting down life’s puny weeds And still we know that neither are eternal ...eternal like our deeds Deep into Nightside’s ice-cold womb With dark intent we plant these spells As magical seeds shall they strike root In the soil within ourselves as well Wed are the lunar and the solar Silver and gold are mixed together The left and the right turned into one thing The wine within May the opposer Drink deep of this sacrament As a token of our oath to Him We formulate this offering |

7. | For Thirteen Moons | 07:56 | Show lyrics |
Thrice - anointed with the elixir of offering The candles around me have nearly come to life And as the salamanders are dancing their magic My eleven angles paint the walls of this shrine Here I sit at the confluence Of the old and the new At the crossroads of all That is not and what will be Each fiber in my being Resonates with the objective This art is my temple And none other shall I need Life force is spilled, the intent voiced Strong is my will, may all hindrance recoil Awaken and will a flame... And a flame will awaken! Words vanish from sight Blood becomes ash Amidst the thickest black Is seated the shining Baphomet Channeling the blessing Casting the curse most grim So that I may approach the void And be that much closer to Him Life force was spilled, the intent voiced Strong is my will, may all hindrance recoil Awaken and will a flame... And a flame will awaken! |

8. | Triunity | 05:55 | Show lyrics |
A time tailored after an ancient design With stellar formations positioned aright Mercilessly pound the hammers of Sin Forging into form the dusk on Adam’s kin In silvery streams the earth now bathes By their touch feathers change to scales Unhallowed goddess, all nightmares at her feet A perfect sanctum for the master’s seed Wet with divine lust, all lesser wants forsaken Herself she opens as the shadows awaken Behold the beast, behold his queen Behold their pact of obscenity Bow your heads down... To her, the anointed harlot To her who is forever lewd And to him, the venom of God To him that can’t be subdued In unison their psalms all ravens intone Across the dimensions this hymn now flows And the Day of the Scythe is ushered in… Exalt the beast, exalt his queen Exalt the one that completes the three Raise your cups high... To her, the darkside’s whore To her who is of the night And to him, the heart of blackness To him who begets the child In their towers made of severed heads They are high enough to touch the moon As monoliths have now arisen The ones cast out from heaven! |

9. | The Way of the Scales | 07:05 | Show lyrics |
My voice is fire and the wind is my herald Watch the world burn as I start to howl There’s a sense of loss in its ashes’ warmth But also freedom from what weighs us down The quintessence of the thirst for knowledge Fuels this toilsome journey through hell It is the purest venom from the forbidden fountains The serpent’s dew that awakens the self Each step further from Eden is a step of a dawning god No true crown can be granted to a spineless heap of mud I have listened and I have heard I have watched and I have seen From the shadow I began to learn The dark, the black and the spectrum between Dived I deep into the oil black waters Not to drown and vanish but to surface on the other side Sinking through blackness, so dense and cold To seize the gift of birth through demise Those who approach perdition from new angles and sides Can once through the depths reach the apex of heights For certain I simply cannot know What will await me at the end of this road But be it a scepter in my hand Or the kiss of an axe on my neck Proudly I have traveled there And my fate I shall gladly accept |

1. | In Your Midnight Orchard | 09:19 | Show lyrics |
[When we close our eyes and withdraw from the world around us, we awaken to perceive another beyond it. If we explore this limitless realm with willed steps, we are granted the opportunity to come in contact with the denizens of the Otherworld, to experience initiation and to even converse with the Divine.] Across the arcane bridge of soul-flight I have arrived in your domain where the great fair three as one shine yet the fourth still veiled remains As through these glades I wander strangest roses tear my skin they deepen the spell I’m under with your venom of hallowed sin Though I remember not, again I now know the language of owls that are guiding me back home Free my starving soul and chain my heart to this ardent hour of ecstasy with the sword of your splendor pierce my eyes make your radiance the last thing I’ll see The Gate of Eden is swung open I am a witness to your reign my life I offer you as a token for one drop from wisdom’s vein To you I pray, make me versed in your ways pale pilgrim with the bloodied crescent horns grant me strenght and on my head now place the wreath of silver thorns It is not your wrath that may crush me it is your love that must... Pain and relief, sorrows and joys they all shriek at me in your worldless voice Rend apart my heart and nail my soul to Night’s searing cross of severity with the speark of your judgement pierce my side make painful bliss the last thing I’ll feel |

2. | To the Pearl on High | 07:09 | Show lyrics |
[What else is worship at its coree but love and passionate adoration? What is devotion if not desire and striving for union?] Nearer and nearer draw the hours that re-join the Moon and her kin ignited by this longed shift of power the conflagration of hearts begins With the sap from the wound of Night’s saint the back of my head I anoint in your name Your grace captured in the waters of the soul the mortal vase stands holy and pure As naked as are the cloundless skies again I’ve entered your age-old shrine I proclaim with adamant belief no thing profane can dim this love I feel Serpentine shapes of swirling smoke move in rhythm with the tide they slither upwards to the stars’ abode as my gift to the Pearl on high I proclaim with adamant belief no thing profane can dim this love I feel In circles we dance like wraiths shifting between bright and grey masks until the last gate we penetrate and deep into your darkness pass |

To break free from this mode is not only an option for us, it is our sole duty as the godly seeds sown by times past.] From the womb of the suns, come forth from the blood of the past, now rise the runes carved in our bones through you shall come alive My mouth pours out your word and your scars mark my flesh may my hands do your Work and my feet take your steps In your grasp you hold the key to transcend what I currently am in your image create me anew blur the line between god and man When we are born masters why should we submit like dogs! Courage take over my heart strenght inhabit my being persistence my thoughts are yours to lead oh, bringers of salvation eclipse the human in me May my hands do your Work and my feet take your steps Be my aegis without bounds and the arrow in my bow an extension of my will the moonlight on my road Hear my call my thoughts are yours to lead Oh, bringers of salvation eclipse the human in me |

[To say that fate is what you make of is not entirely true. There are certain paths you are drawn to and bound to tread even if you might fool yourself to think otherwise. We can drink now or be led to the water later on but at some point drink we must.] Faceless faces behind masks of stone boneless bones clad in burning robes by hidden hands the wheels are turned through words unsaid their purpose learnt The paradox I live and breathe I roam its fields in thought and dream The silence within... it hums your symphony in the voice of thunder your angels sing to me Providence works in ways unknown more obscure couldn’t be its lantern’s glow yet by diverse means the web is spun and all the paths I take in the end are one Whichever is my role on Earth with your scarlet thread my heart is girt The silence within... it hums your symphony in the voice of thunder your angels sing to me And it all echoes throughout eternities |

6. | With Sickle, with Scythe | 10:10 | Show lyrics |
[We don’t need to experience the reaper’s touch first-hand in order to appreaciate its liberating qualities. In time we all must go through the Grand Gate which he reveals to us. It is up to our hearts to decide whether the bone-key to that gate will be turned with a steady hand or that which shakes in fear.] With fingers of grey-white bone thrice you knock on my chamber door once for the mind, once for the soul once for the flesh twitching on the floor Cut the cords of time with sickle and scythe Under the wings of oblivion lies my haven in their shadow alone can I find rest from the book of being I have torn out the pages spilled I have the ink of eternal existence Many named you Mystery daring not to part your veil but I’ve stared you straight in the eye and I’ve learnt your real names Liberator, Redeemer, the Mask of Sooth your call is the knell that frees us from the Spell Untrue A universe is crushed... Naught remains the burden of the aeons past now I relinquish vanishing human memories, so fast forgotten like a handful of dirt thrown into the north wind The white fortress of thoughts the earth has claimed her own and the red mansion of life the abyss swallowed whole but the ice-cold void of eternity’s limitless vault will treasure the triumphant spark that furthers their fall Three thorns as black as coal you drove through my very core one for the mind, one for the soul one for the flesh lying on the floor Cut the cords of time with sickle and scythe On a narrow path my feet have trodden only the ghosts of frozen trees watching the steps the high hills of time I have traversed fighting my way through a world of shells to lie down with the wolves |

1. | Self-Exiled | 06:00 | Show lyrics |
Upon winding and stony trails, where the lead-hearted can never go, have I found the holiest of havens. The true North for a seeking soul. This congregation of crooked bodies and their motionless circle dance. It all resounds an unending poem of ordeal and murderous deeds most sacrosanct. Wherever I walk, stand, leap or stumble, it is there beneath my heels. Forever treated but never trampled the verdant field of our belief. Let once again the mundane drown in the rivers of eternity, and may magick unlost be newly found as I in you and you in me. A raven’s feather and my heart placed on your scales at the darkest moon. Which one weighs heavier, and which is blacker of the two? |
|||
2. | Facing the North | 04:55 | Show lyrics |
As the sun is slowly cut by the jagged blade of the horizon, the sylvan kingdom around me unveils its blackening face. In my left eye flashes the silver sickle of sacrifice, the golden plate of offering shines in the right. O’ fire, fill my lungs, give swiftness to these words. By their beaks and claws ablaze are the gates once buried unearthed. With blood I bless you, with spells I crown you. With everything I am I make you holy and lay you down at His feet. In His left eye flashes the silver sickle of sacrifice, the golden plate of offering shines in the right. When the nightsky hymns give way to the song of the dawn. On the lips of witches is the God of Silence restored. |

3. | Aureate Water | 05:06 | Show lyrics |
Not even in the abyssal ocean did the nail from the sacred forge cool, and that iron thorn fallen from on high was driven into a soil ever-frozen. By it’s burning blessing everythig was transformed, the ice turned into a stream and the land into its sole vessel. Through more and more sacred drops the stream became a gushing river. Wild it flowed forth, consuming even the earth around it. Come the deadliest of droughts or a winter without end. The water will not still, its course will never bend. Day after day, night after night, my mind rides its hidden currents, and the mirror-like surface cradles my tuest reflection. The roaring will, the earthen heart. Their essence mixed together, their destination the same. The sea of your shoreless darkness! |

4. | The Upright Road | 05:27 | Show lyrics |
Great path-revealer, pluck out one of your million eyes and place it like a kiss upon my brow. Beholding with your godly vision, even if for a fleeting moment will unlock the shackles that hold me down. By the heat of celestial fire raining down from the silver lips, the brew of remembrance boils in the cauldron upturned. Luminaries most high with the mirror in my soul your rays align. Turn me into a beacon that lights up the night. Majesties of old, I shmash the mask against the altar stone. And fashion from the shards another to match your own. An opened book of timeless sorcery is the jewelled dome arching above me. In the presence of such wonders no blasphemy would be more grave than a heart unopened and sight self-restrained. By the heart of terrestrial fire rising up the crimson lips, the seed of reverence enters the blood-cup upturned. |
|||
5. | At Their Table | 05:01 | Show lyrics |
By earth, by water, by air and fire, by spirit most pure I fling open the door. By word, by gesture, by songs that they inspire, by will most sound I call them forth. Where three roads lead and eight winds part stands our church beyond time and place. With hooves for feet and flames for heart around the same fount of power we pace. There is no higher honour than to sup at their table, no greater gift than this chalice we share. The feet that stomp the grave of my own Abel shall move to the rythm of a lifelong prayer. Bright Moon Lover, make this body writhe. Black Moon Mother, with your blood wash my eye. The wisdom of the dead I raise from the halls beneath, and the radiance of the stars I draw down. I speak the spells of old and echo each future deed, and bind them all in the eternal Now. There is no higher honour than to sup at their table, no greater gift than this chalice we share. The feet that stomp the grave of my own Abel shall move to the rythm of a lifelong prayer. |

6. | The Foe of Many Masks | 06:46 | Show lyrics |
With strength I am armoured, prayers grace the sword unsheathed. Armed to the teeth I am, with devoted thought and deed. In this war that has been fought since the blood in me unfroze, no sacrifice is too dire, no torment great enough to oppose. Foe, march your legions right at my kingdom’s edge. None may breach its bounds without being torn to shreds. There are things pure and sacred and those that seek their decline. Across the divide between them we meet eye to eye. It take a thousand masks to conceal one rotten core, but a single willed strike can make its dominion fall. For one last passing second I lose myself in your empty stare, facing me from the shards of the mirror. |
|||
7. | Twice Eleven | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
A face of bone and dried blood hovers in the silken darkness, and unto it I am the mirror. In the orgy of graveyard shadows a gate was shown to me, and unto it I am the key. The skull of a noble beast is placed upon the stang. And I hold the cleaving sword, the liberator of its essence. In the mist of the morn we stand both triumphant and torn. Twice eleven times the death bell chimes, twice eleven are the poison drops in our wine. The ring of the Reaper, we all kiss at birth, we call him King, yet strangely shun His work. |

9. | To Flames the Flesh | 09:03 | Show lyrics |
A seed sown by the hands of the stars, fallen into the soil raked by the moon. Destined to rise like others before, to reach heavenwards from this earthly womb. With a femur from the corpse of the sun, time strikes the harvest drum. A tree grown by the light of the stars, fallen onto the soil graced by the moon. Bound to dissolve like others before, to link with its kin through this earthly tomb. Writ in blood and edged in stone is the solemn song of the silent crows. Swathe my flesh in the blackest satin adorned with the spells we shared. Lay me down on a bed of branches, and let the flames strike high. When at last I wake up to greet the horizons of blazing red, arms no longer extend from me but a pair of golden wings instead. |

Rain falls black from the skies gray as tears they fell from the throne of the Almighty...Cosmos Beholding a star that has been lit above me I fall before its beauty In this rainraped evening the unknown stars shone to me the Ominous starlight creates a vision of a blackened rainbow By the ecstacy of mystic rainbow all veils open to me I saw the blasphemy - in natures purity I heard the blasphemy - in the birds singing With heavenly tone over lakes and the seas wherever there a heartbeat is "Follow the blackened rainbow to its end You will never wake to the sunrise in heaven" You will never see heaven. |

The sky has blessed us by revealing its obscure side from which the stars look upon us, begging to be taken away. For we are the ones who already fell from amongst them to weaken the light of day. To weaken the light of day! With the reality of blade we’ll cut the wings from your dreams. The mighty darkside mocks your saviour, laughs at his screams. We are the embodiment of war, we are the whip of Satan himself, we are the whirlwind upon your kind. Merciless towards you all we are with all the pride of a fallen star. Suffer, you christian bastards! We’ll force you to drink your own blood, and the last thing you’ll realize will be the cruelness in our eyes. The sky has blessed us by revealing its obscure side from which the stars look upon us, begging to be taken away. For we are the ones who already fell from amongst them to weaken the light of day. Shudder before the might of our Lord and His legions. Cry in pain when these claws of Death reach your heart. The wrath we hold within is strong enough to crush even mountains. Be ready to feel it, you’ll all die on your fucking knees! |

3. | My Somberness Surmounted | 04:45 | Show lyrics |
I close my eyes and your light is ignored, I entomb my memories and your words are forlorn. Subconscious walls imprison me no more The blade runs upon my skin, my hands become sore It must be the crasp of Death that pulls me under the surface over and over again. At last I’m setting myself apart from your useless ways, at last I forsake the burden you created for me. Your illusions are like dust to me, just some reflections of worthlessness. Hate breathes within me! I see thousand times farther than any of you can, you failed to sense the harvest which you’ve become. You revealed me the weakness in man! Bitter sweet is this view of solitude, take me but not my flesh. Confused I am by all these dark emotions, am I to sink in these infinite black oceans? I see cursed bodies dance around Devil’s Fire. My Dark Father, receive me, complete me, impale me with immortality. Immortality! |

4. | Of a Stormgrey Vision | 04:46 | Show lyrics |
Let thy sword fall upon the necks of the feeble and the foolish. Raise thy fist in glory and smash the crosses to thousand little pieces. Give your commands unto the firestorms, may the flames caress the sky. Lead the whirlwinds towards the masses and as harvested they shall fall. Agony and fear arise in black shapes, both are here to torment the weak. Listen how they cry for their "God" that never existed the way they thought. He is not a saviour nor is he a king, never was and never shall be. Only a coward without any reason to be a ruler. This world shall be given to those who roam the paths of the dark unseen. This world shall be reborn to greet its true owners. This world shall be laid in the shade of lightless day, dawnless morning. Just give us thy sword, it’ll be our scythe. Just give us thy sign and we will be the damnation. All the honour is yours, I feel thy unclean powers run through me. A river of blood, all shed with our hands, faithfully we follow thy commands. |

5. | He Awaits... | 03:55 | Show lyrics |
Take a look beyond this mortal world, can you see what awaits there on? Listen, can you hear those voices call your name? Different words but they all mean the same! Mean the same! Wooden gates are closing behind you, no turning back, walk onwards on your path. Coldwinds are blowing against your face, be prepared to feel the most gruesome grace. A place where the fire has its lair, you can’t turn away, you are already there burn with passion! Let the mist move aside, let it clear your sight. Can you feel His presence? Stars as His crown, mountains as his throne. This is your destiny for you are His own. He awaits... |

Enter through the door hiding in your dreams Step forth and explore our domains with mesmerized eyes Lift your hands towards us and invoke us from the deeps of your mind Open your eyes to behold The chalice is overflowing with blood With the blood from your arms Feel the thunders as they reach for you Welcome them on your knees Watch the shadows dance in that mist Hear how a nightly hymn bewitches And know that we are the ones who walk where stars never sleep Under the eyes of the Superior One Raging sound of the spiritstorm is closing in Death is calling you to bathe in eternal sin Tempting your most deepest desire Soul to burn in the everflaming fire Now, drink from the warm stream of your own blood Break down your mortal bonds and blaspheme the worthless one For your place is with us here where sun is never shown And the obscurity gives you everything you seek So you stand above the foolish and the weak Enter through the door hiding in your dreams Step forth and explore our domains with mesmerized eyes Lift your hands toward us and invoke us from the deeps of your mind Under the eyes of the Darkest One |

Above the silvery shining surface of the water Beneath the breath of the cruelest breeze Through the foggy and untouchable blackness From the blackest rain that couldn’t freeze The shadows of my Lord approach The touch of the evening mist, colouring views black for my eyes to see The magical reign of the darkest infinity Thee I praise, the Mightiest one Proud I am to be Thy son Come and bring Thy shadows to veil my existence Let me become a permanent part of Thy kingdom Let me drown in the shades of Thy greatness May I feel Thy presence stronger than ever before May Thy flame embrace me like the waves embrace the shore Thou who art the ruler of the deepest Thou art merciless to those who don’t follow thy obscure paths But never to Your sons and daughters I give my life away and my soul is at Your hands... I descend into images so dark and deep As one with the night I sleep With rejoice I die and fade away For never again touches me the light of day Now darkness remains as eternal to me Blessed I am by His supremacy For there is a star enthroned in the forbidden side of the sky ...and that star is I! |

1. | Breathless Flesh Sculpture | 05:47 | Show lyrics |
One thousand different rooms full of pain One thousand rooms full of different pain There are no words to describe all the horror Which these thick stonewalls have witnessed Voyaging into the ravines in their empty eyes You can observe all those Demons as they rise Experiencing the perverse form of true art All the poetry in dead flesh and suffocated love Listen carefully to the dialogue between your skin and these rusty blades Feel free to appreciate our ways to progress you Worship the blackened lights in our forwarded hearts As we turn your filthy body into a piece of art The desecration of god’s image is almost completed As your desperation enriches this masterpiece The symmetry of mutilation is worth marveling All the artists wait for your pulse to seize In the breathless flesh exhibition our loyality is comprised Through the materialising of sickness our praises are combined With the magnificience of this art we hail Thee, oh Satan!!! Listen carefully to the dialogue between your skin and these rusty blades Feel free to appreciate our ways to progress you Worship the blackened lights in our forwarded hearts As we turn your filthy body into a piece of art |

3. | Daemonolith | 06:23 | Show lyrics |
Each time I speak An angel falls beheaded from the heavens Each time my foot meets the soil The celestial fruits wither to dust I was the one to offer them my gifts Obsessive pearls for the absent generations When the old nations were hammered down I stood there strangling them to their final sleep Persistance has overcome In order to achieve the clearest triumphancy Seek not for the obvious nor the visible And thus, thou might become a part of me I am sure you must know me For I am the taste in the veins of those who enjoyed the carnage Halls beyond the blinded eyes The wells right in front of their souls Trapped in the current trails of simplicity Abandoned inner stigmas, now purely manifest The future is driven through my palms Your deficiency was painted by my speech The Master’s empyrean yearns for no rest I deliver the goblets of venom, two for each... One for your scattered bones And the other for your dreams I am the one offering you my gifts Obsessive pearls for the present generations |

4. | Netherworldly | 04:35 | Show lyrics |
In a spectrum of darker fantasies I absorbed the myriad auras With delusions harnessed in twisted solace The planets stepped down in pure homage For each of time I have cast the dice Beneath perfectly euclidean constellations My face is lined with sol’s demise And agonised through His transformations Unearthly... netherwordly Virtuous is every sin to meI master the crafts of dying In all of its sordid serenity I find life worth defying My contempt is for those in a dead human shell Netherwordly... unearthly Harboured I became in the shelter of His name Forever fedwith the ceremonial gloom The wawes of inferno are my sword, suffering is my shield The might of Hell is my guide on this endless slaughterfield The omnipotent colours of Armageddon are scathing indeed And the displayed, severed head of the Nazarene A skull undressed of all skin, isn’t it ravishing? |
|||
5. | Of Predators and Preys | 06:02 | Show lyrics |
Disentangeled by abominations Strenghtened in every aspect through confrontations Hiding oneself from the sarcastic faces of this universe A fallen disciple burdened with confusion Conquered by an uncontrollable creed to scatter His delusion Plundered down to the spectral gorges of the earth Undisguised for the ignorant to see The splendour in such a profane conspiracy Imprisoned and lost in the untrodden maze... of predators and preys Cutting like a dagger hardened in His fire Afflictions and violations are freed in this void Possess an almighty eye to witness their choir And hunt down fools that have always decoyed Wingless and scattered, the slaves of submission In them, ideal serpent of death, waiting Lead by instincts like vermin on a carcassoppressed by the context; blessing of oblivion... Absence is present when the presence is absent Anxiously awaiting His millennia Slowly sowing the seeds of hysteria Captured in the strangling embrace... of predators and preys... Presence is absent when the absence is present Charged with misantrophy... This is how we hunt! |

6. | The Mirrored Deathwish Paranoia | 06:24 | Show lyrics |
Hidden horrors strive from the inner mind And all life is altered to sadness Rapture is now the painted crime Images are enriched with madness I watched as it opened right before me A vortex reflection of the mystery sea Where pain and pleasure do collide Where compassion shall never abide Here no beast hides his face behind a mask Here no hollow words are spoken There breathes no forgiveness No chains grow to be broken This would no mortal creation ever bear For the forlorn sins I hereby share I am a part of this dark and demonic feast The walls are laughing in the Temple Of The Beast Give me wings and give me horns Infest my heart with Thy morbid thorns Blind my sight with the infernal flame And I shall slaughter to honour Thy name |

7. | An Ode to the Bringer of Chaos | 07:10 | Show lyrics |
The night is our dawn - bestow us Thy spell Allow us to comprehend the august wisdom of Hell With insanity Thou have besmeared my mind Come forth, Thou art the father of our kind The agitator behind the walls of flames Behold these instruments of vengeance Curse forever this light-raped dimension Embrace it to death with Thy tyrannic ascension Crushing the skull of christ out of pure delight Grievance is the reward of this world forlorn The hellburn inside, guiding me to the pit and beyond Thy grasp squeezes my soul and never lets me go With a perverted smile upon our lips we observed The enemy bemoaned in the nectar of a dying world... Satan, Thou art to spill the wine of suicide Master, Thou art the razor upon their throats As marionettes of death in the arms of Mammon Or like flesh torn by the unhallowed dragon Malignant visions unfold, Thy age has begun Darkness is ours for Thy flame became our sun |

8. | Anno Sathani | 05:03 | Show lyrics |
The sons of adam, the daughters of eve All have bent down to the dust onto their knees Anticipating the final asbsolution The sweet, liberating execution The flames have swallowed all hallowed And the white gowns of the saints are now blood coloured Pathetic whores of jehovah are oppressed The lambs are slaughtered and christ bleeds of insest ANNO SATHANI, ANNO SATHANIANNO SATHANI, THE YEAR OF BLASPHEMY ANNO SATHANI, ANNO SATHANIANNO SATHANI, THE YEAR OF SODOMY Behold! Your cross is burning It will no longer bare your weight In the name of the mighty persecutor This is the sunset of christian faith I laugh at the very annihilation of your kind All fools going down with their "master mind" We are bound by hellfire’s seduction As we pledge in the name of Desruction ANNO SATHANI, ANNO SATHANIANNO SATHANI, THE YEAR OF SUFFERINGANNO SATHANI, ANNO SATHANIANNO SATHANI, THE TIME OF AGONYANNO SATHANI, THE DAWN OF TRIUMPHANCY!!! |

1. | The Circle of Six | 03:49 | Show lyrics |
This is our attempt to raise the tower of Babel! The sigil of Amon seals this covenant Six different bodies form the unity of one Blood is replaced by venom, skin by scales Morbidity reaches measures unreal... Insane Antagonists of the surrounding subhumanity Breaking the dove’s neck to manifest our intentions We desire... to demoralize the sanctity of life We climb higher... to tresspass against Jahve’s light Open wide are the lunar eyes Saturn is on the rise The acausal streams into the causal At the brink of supremacy we look at thee and laugh The most sinister energies besiege the kin of man Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve We invert the crucifix to skullfuck god with it Fist of annihilation out of control Spiritual, nonetheless effective Re-writing time with pandemonium’s quill At one with Lucifer’s pride, we made our kill The igneous serpents slither With their pulses synchronized Death may be gaining on us as well But we are not the crippled Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve |

2. | Mercurian Soulscapes | 04:10 | Show lyrics |
Demigodly creatures infiltrating the human race Embodied hellish energy behind a common front Aware of reality’s phantasmagoric nature We can see right through its manmade exterior Bearing the spark of purification Which’ll clothe all continents in a fiery veil Erasing the errors of the past Thus, making way for the future And reclaiming the dignity once lost Those sharing the goblet of deeper insight Can never be misled by any mortal word And so we wander in subterranean shadows Where the beams of biblical light fail to distract Like a pack of bicephalous wolves Patiently observing those we desire to hunt Fully prepared to unleash our innermost demons To violate, to ravish and to annihilate By sundown’s ghastly eminence we’ll assemble To bayonet each and every clerical heart And with the lifeblood of the first dead shepherd Our faces will be painted as an indication of triumph Enfolded by bleak auras Glowing with otherworldly splendour Upon the wings of inborn aspiration We shall soar high above the carcass fields Where fellow ravens peck holes in rotten skulls |

From the coldness of the mirror Inhuman eyes stare back at me The blueprints of decadence are revealed Subconscious beast revels in aggression Knowing nothing of boundaries, My twin of disorder Killer of souls, a daemon if you will Inner machine of a destructive design As real as the air I breathe As concrete as the ground beneath He’s my reason to practise mayhem A right to express my hatred Absurdity! March through me Turn me into thy fortress The stronger you grow, the clearer I see No eyes shall I need in darkness Drawn into the perpetual greyness of emotions On the shoulders of a genocide I stand He carries the invisible jewels of wisdom He is more me than I am myself, My twin of disorder With open arms I shall confront the day When the dead forsake Gaia’s embrace All of the icons of light rotate half a circle And escape into nothingness Then we are no longer two But one and the same |

Spokesmen of slavery, The earth is barren where you stand Knee-deep in the quicksand of inability Yet, respect is what you demand Save your quotes and affected sermons ’coz stupidity has never impressed me Know that my windows aren’t walls like yours are And no act you engage in can do me harm Why such reluctance to discard the doctrines That are like talons tearing apart your within? Oh, the despair if god ever turned his back on you This catastrophe scenario of yours is making me amused You are but fools sacrificed at random In the twisted game of redemption It’s illogical to choose a path That will ultimately lead to one’s decline And still wish for a sip of monumentality’s wine In the same labyrinth of dilemmas we dwell To me it is a challenge, to you it is a hell Your kind may seek comfort in thraldom But I stand erect, holding high the banner of wisdom Rapists of dignity, Sowing your falsehood into young minds So arrogantly trusting your sanctity Though, the stab will come from behind You are but fools sacrificed at random In the twisted game of redemption It’s illogical to choose a path That will ultimately lead to one’s decline And still wish for a sip of monumentality’s wine |

All the way from Eden to Armageddon Such long the journey, not a single step taken Infested the planet like malignant tumors Still being the lowest of all terrestial lifeforms Welcome to the grand downward vortex Drowning in nightmares, fear is what we breathe A flickering flame of a candle is our existence Fading out, evermore insignificant In comparison with the living The dead seem rather fortunate We have engraved our own epitaph The last paragraph in the chronicles of man A scythe-bearing sun smiles at the tragedy Sheding a light of irony upon the failures of humanity Technology marches on As does the death of intelligence Towards a brand new Golgatha Where only one cross awaits us all Mankind... Cast aside... Deprived of life Tormented with the nails of extinction The last swing of the hammer concludes the parody Of a race poisoned by triviality And still some dare to ask: Will dawn follow this darkness? |

In the aftermath of another escape from reality Exhausted you lay, circled by nothingness You sank so deep... lacking the strength to surface again Miracles and revelations, or just hallusinations? God tends to speak only at the moments of weakness As ruins are easier to conquer Guilt batters with a killer’s fist Forcing you to confess your supposed sins Hoping for heaven, afraid of hell You sealed your decay with a shallow prayer How real can this revival be When it’s merely compensating your low self-esteem? Life-long submission seems to be the price of faith So, will the bleeding hearts give more than they take? Drifting with the winds out at the sea of deceit The fear of god is all you have No sign of the promised salvation An addict to punishment and restrain Paints horns and feathers within the same frames Helped up from the pit And thrown down into a deeper one |

This is our attempt to raise the tower of Babel!

Insane Antagonists of the surrounding subhumanity Breaking the dove’s neck to manifest our intentions We desire... to demoralize the sanctity of life We climb higher... to tresspass against Jahve’s light Open wide are the lunar eyes Saturn is on the rise The acausal streams into the causal At the brink of supremacy we look at thee and laugh The most sinister energies besiege the kin of man Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve We invert the crucifix to skullfuck god with it Fist of annihilation out of control Spiritual, nonetheless effective Re-writing time with pandemonium’s quill At one with Lucifer’s pride, we made our kill The igneous serpents slither With their pulses synchronized Death may be gaining on us as well But we are not the crippled Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve |

Demigodly creatures infiltrating the human race Embodied hellish energy behind a common front Aware of reality’s phantasmagoric nature We can see right through its manmade exterior Bearing the spark of purification Which’ll clothe all continents in a fiery veil Erasing the errors of the past Thus, making way for the future And reclaiming the dignity once lost Those sharing the goblet of deeper insight Can never be misled by any mortal word And so we wander in subterranean shadows Where the beams of biblical light fail to distract Like a pack of bicephalous wolves Patiently observing those we desire to hunt Fully prepared to unleash our innermost demons To violate, to ravish and to annihilate By sundown’s ghastly eminence we’ll assemble To bayonet each and every clerical heart And with the lifeblood of the first dead shepherd Our faces will be painted as an indication of triumph Enfolded by bleak auras Glowing with otherworldly splendour Upon the wings of inborn aspiration We shall soar high above the carcass fields Where fellow ravens peck holes in rotten skulls |

God tends to speak only at the moments of weakness As ruins are easier to conquer Guilt batters with a killer’s fist Forcing you to confess your supposed sins Hoping for heaven, afraid of hell You sealed your decay with a shallow prayer How real can this revival be When it’s merely compensating your low self-esteem? Life-long submission seems to be the price of faith So, will the bleeding hearts give more than they take? Drifting with the winds out at the sea of deceit The fear of god is all you have No sign of the promised salvation An addict to punishment and restrain Paints horns and feathers within the same frames Helped up from the pit And thrown down into a deeper one |

9. | Iconoblast | 03:20 | Show lyrics |
Profoundly punished am I Bound to bear witness to this global masquerade In which kings and fools may be the same Theatrical innocence and whoredom are abloom In the rotten hierarchy fundamentally deaf to all truths Narrow is the path of the compassionate Vain is the philanthropic approach Making haste from the womb to the stage To star an incoherrent martyrplay I bow to Osiris-Typhon And to the grandeur of His ascendancy Within, about and beyond me I extol the sun-outshining Mercury That steals the feeble’s vision Consider me as a potential iconoblast As a gun pointed at your foreheads Without mercy and remorse I tread on the debris of benevolence And assault the most sacrosanct Corrupted to the core and, yet, so sinless Terminally short on dignity Just barely breathing in morality’s stranglehold If self-delusion was a crime, You’d be taken straight to the gallows Narrow is the path of the compassionate Vain is the philanthropic approach Making haste from the womb to the stage To star an incoherrent martyrplay Profoundly rewarded am I Stripped of all humane amidst this global masquerade |

Lady have you known me The perfect love machine I’m Virgo, my Leo’s rising, Venus made me king That trail of broken hearts They all belong to me Magic runs through my fingers One touch you’ll see L.O.V.E. All I need’s my love machine L.O.V.E. All I need’s my love machine, tonight, tonight What can I do for you Am I your wildest dream What do I move to you Am I what I seem My eyes, they lie and you cry Love brings you pain And if you try to love me You’ll not feel the same L.O.V.E. All I need’s my love machine L.O.V.E. All I need’s my love machine, tonight, tonight |

1. | The Circle of Six | 03:49 | Show lyrics |
This is our attempt to raise the tower of Babel! The sigil of Amon seals this covenant Six different bodies form the unity of one Blood is replaced by venom, skin by scales Morbidity reaches measures unreal... Insane Antagonists of the surrounding subhumanity Breaking the dove’s neck to manifest our intentions We desire... to demoralize the sanctity of life We climb higher... to tresspass against Jahve’s light Open wide are the lunar eyes Saturn is on the rise The acausal streams into the causal At the brink of supremacy we look at thee and laugh The most sinister energies besiege the kin of man Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve We invert the crucifix to skullfuck god with it Fist of annihilation out of control Spiritual, nonetheless effective Re-writing time with pandemonium’s quill At one with Lucifer’s pride, we made our kill The igneous serpents slither With their pulses synchronized Death may be gaining on us as well But we are not the crippled Tired steps lead to the lunatic’s arena A Circus Maximus of our own Where the lions shall never starve |

2. | Mercurian Soulscapes | 04:10 | Show lyrics |
Demigodly creatures infiltrating the human race Embodied hellish energy behind a common front Aware of reality’s phantasmagoric nature We can see right through its manmade exterior Bearing the spark of purification Which’ll clothe all continents in a fiery veil Erasing the errors of the past Thus, making way for the future And reclaiming the dignity once lost Those sharing the goblet of deeper insight Can never be misled by any mortal word And so we wander in subterranean shadows Where the beams of biblical light fail to distract Like a pack of bicephalous wolves Patiently observing those we desire to hunt Fully prepared to unleash our innermost demons To violate, to ravish and to annihilate By sundown’s ghastly eminence we’ll assemble To bayonet each and every clerical heart And with the lifeblood of the first dead shepherd Our faces will be painted as an indication of triumph Enfolded by bleak auras Glowing with otherworldly splendour Upon the wings of inborn aspiration We shall soar high above the carcass fields Where fellow ravens peck holes in rotten skulls |

3. | In Invidiam | 06:39 | Show lyrics |
I am cause and effect, I absorb and reflect Picture an unbroken circle and you’ll comprehend what I am I have no beginning nor an end A stream of impure deeds that the holy resent I improve your fractured reality But only to deprive you of a crown I even build you towers But only to tear them down By my command The heaven bleeds a rain of arsenic tears And petty souls are put asunder Like two-thousand years old papyrus scrolls Ignorance=degeneration Your deletion lies in this equation Acknowledge your secret thirst for my existence For I can turn you into a god All the names of darkness are carved upon my skin I am an unsolved riddle, a myth of the gloomiest kind The fountain of excellence or the venom of mind Never has true euphoria been rooted in utopia Dip your face in acid and admire the new you There is illusion even in illusion But behold with my eyes to see clarity in confusion Be my scepter and I shall be your throne A Union Equilibrium, we’ll reign eternities as our own A thin line seperates madness and magnificience And together we are bound to balance upon it |

4. | My Twin of Disorder | 04:14 | Show lyrics |
From the coldness of the mirror Inhuman eyes stare back at me The blueprints of decadence are revealed Subconscious beast revels in aggression Knowing nothing of boundaries, My twin of disorder Killer of souls, a daemon if you will Inner machine of a destructive design As real as the air I breathe As concrete as the ground beneath He’s my reason to practise mayhem A right to express my hatred Absurdity! March through me Turn me into thy fortress The stronger you grow, the clearer I see No eyes shall I need in darkness Drawn into the perpetual greyness of emotions On the shoulders of a genocide I stand He carries the invisible jewels of wisdom He is more me than I am myself, My twin of disorder With open arms I shall confront the day When the dead forsake Gaia’s embrace All of the icons of light rotate half a circle And escape into nothingness Then we are no longer two But one and the same |

5. | Regained Planetary Possession | 04:24 | Show lyrics |
The lower the sun sinks, The larger each shadow grows on celestial soil Not suddenly but certainly The holy land is swallowed into new kind of tyranny The planet, like a thoroughly raped whore, Bled the demonic ones out from its core The tempest speaks in ominous tongues Of a tremendous havoc yet to come Worlds bend and even time devours itself hollow Inhale the blasphemous dance of the macrocosm With throes it gives birth to a strange constellation Emerging from the sea of distress Like a 21st century Leviathan The unseen legionaries, all-worldly possessors Now enter the skies over god’s paradise They dominate and they destroy They decide when the curtain shall fall (on our pityful existence) Mother earth already underwent the metamorphosis And so shall all her children Kissed by Thanatos and pulled to the grave Soldiers of Satan, the very emperors of this world Animosity embodies, new methods of torture surface Human despair is their amusement Nations fell pale before life’s nemesis On the expanded levels of awareness Compulsive behaviour breeds Give in to these imperatives And participate in self-destructive deeds |

6. | Antithesis | 04:44 | Show lyrics |
Spokesmen of slavery, The earth is barren where you stand Knee-deep in the quicksand of inability Yet, respect is what you demand Save your quotes and affected sermons ’coz stupidity has never impressed me Know that my windows aren’t walls like yours are And no act you engage in can do me harm Why such reluctance to discard the doctrines That are like talons tearing apart your within? Oh, the despair if god ever turned his back on you This catastrophe scenario of yours is making me amused You are but fools sacrificed at random In the twisted game of redemption It’s illogical to choose a path That will ultimately lead to one’s decline And still wish for a sip of monumentality’s wine In the same labyrinth of dilemmas we dwell To me it is a challenge, to you it is a hell Your kind may seek comfort in thraldom But I stand erect, holding high the banner of wisdom Rapists of dignity, Sowing your falsehood into young minds So arrogantly trusting your sanctity Though, the stab will come from behind You are but fools sacrificed at random In the twisted game of redemption It’s illogical to choose a path That will ultimately lead to one’s decline And still wish for a sip of monumentality’s wine |

7. | The Parody’s Zenith | 05:05 | Show lyrics |
All the way from Eden to Armageddon Such long the journey, not a single step taken Infested the planet like malignant tumors Still being the lowest of all terrestial lifeforms Welcome to the grand downward vortex Drowning in nightmares, fear is what we breathe A flickering flame of a candle is our existence Fading out, evermore insignificant In comparison with the living The dead seem rather fortunate We have engraved our own epitaph The last paragraph in the chronicles of man A scythe-bearing sun smiles at the tragedy Sheding a light of irony upon the failures of humanity Technology marches on As does the death of intelligence Towards a brand new Golgatha Where only one cross awaits us all Mankind... Cast aside... Deprived of life Tormented with the nails of extinction The last swing of the hammer concludes the parody Of a race poisoned by triviality And still some dare to ask: Will dawn follow this darkness? |

Invite me or not - I will enter anyway Resist me or not - I will sculpt you all the same You are the soil opened for a grain An empty canvas that begs for paint Both venom and opium I am Drink of me while you can Call me madness or the redeemer It’s inconsequential for I am neither A nightmare this is but in dreams meet we not This window to reality you can’t nail shut In your eden within I am the tree of sin The point where speech ends and echoes begin Aberrant at heart, you must be erased The rigidness of mind - by progress replaced Both venom and opium I am Drink of me while you can Call me madness or the redeemer It’s inconsequential for I am neither On a paintrip to the center of existence The concept of commonness loses all meaning A piece of broken glass on evolution’s path It is now up to you: re-shaped or removed |

From the primal sediment of Athor I’ve built and moulded this body Thus, to the lower spheres I may descend To manifest myself before thee The rays of illumination Like spears I cast through thee By the burning Eye, re-awaken Sight Beaconed thy paths will be I, the logos of the Black Fire For the triumph of progress do strive Amidst the haze of obsolete notions Bright as the Dog-star I shine Conventionality I shall rend to shreds To banish all morals from thy temple of flesh For with each step beyond thy human reflection Verge thou evermore upon perfection The rays of illumination Like spears I cast through thee By the burning Eye, re-awaken Sight Beaconed thy paths will be Wisdom is the seedling of splendour Will - the condition for its growth Flourish it shall with persistence Though dwell it might ‘neath a wintry cloak As the torch of intuition I shall throw light upon thy way Guiding thee into the knowledge Of thy Three-tongued Flame |

Sensations of anguish swallow me whole Anxiety drills its way to the marrow The quill I dip in the red ink impure To compose poetry by which they are allured Mounted upon a three-legged horse My zest for life trudges forth An invitation to the phantoms unseen The kama-rupic rinds in betwixt and between Like souls of sinners in purgatory fires Striving to escape the jaws of demise The remnants of unbridled human desires Severed from matter by the kiss of the Scythe Concealed in the multitude of leeches Yearning to feed on my vitality I can sense the intensity of their hunger To consume what is still left of me Predatory functions inhabiting not flesh As if vicious thoughts were floating around Sharing the collective curse The compulsion of parasite paradigms Drained me dry and emptied my chalice Leaving but an echoing well behind Locked up I am in this dark chrysalis To hatch out devoid of body, soul and mind Wrapped in the multitude of leeches Yearning to feed on thy vitality Thou can sense the intensity of our hunger To consume what is still left of thee |

With fear at heart you exhale your life And down, down, down you’ll stride Each impulse you’ve indulged Failure wears your ring Born a slave to wealth and fame Failure! Where’s your king? With the vortex streams of karmic gravity Sinking to the grosser realms beneath To the 8th sphere, the gutter of cosmos From whence arises none Not Hell but the globe of death Too dense for an eye to detect The place of complete dissolution Nature’s evolutionary absolution Like a fly captured in a jar Destined to dissolve you are Atom by atom, flaw by flaw Slowly ground in the teeth of All The shape of shadows and light Puts out the dying fires inside Another soul embraces its end Never to reborn again With fear at heart you exhale your life And down, down, down you’ll stride Each impulse you’ve indulged Failure wears your ring Born a slave to wealth and fame Failure! Where’s your king? With the vortex streams of karmic gravity Sinking to the grosser realms beneath To the 8th sphere, the furnace of cosmos From whence returns none |

The source of splendour in forms manifold In whom the fathomless arcana turn aglow Eosphoros - The brightest heavenly eye Each tempest of doubt His grandeur makes subside All aeons entwine for He did arise The flame that without loss endlessly devides Like the sharpest sword is His unchallenged blaze That cuts from our way the cobweb of restraint Heralds, disciples and serpents we are The object and the channel for His powers Driven forth by the undying lust To surpass the frailties of ours And to go beyond every Ring-pass-not The true wisdom besmeared in black Waiting to be once unravelled By the insightful and the daring To be finally discovered Whereas He is the circle, we are at the center Too abstract to be defined, too concrete to be denied All aeons entwine for He did arise The flame that without loss endlessly devides You call Him Satan, the prince of darkness and death We call Him Satan, the eternal fountain of strength Whereas He is the circle, we are at the center Too abstract to be defined, too concrete to be denied |

6. | 8th Sphere | 05:31 | Show lyrics |
With fear at heart you exhale your life And down, down, down you’ll stride Each impulse you’ve indulged Failure wears your ring Born a slave to wealth and fame Failure! Where’s your king? With the vortex streams of karmic gravity Sinking to the grosser realms beneath To the 8th sphere, the gutter of cosmos From whence arises none Not Hell but the globe of death Too dense for an eye to detect The place of complete dissolution Nature’s evolutionary absolution Like a fly captured in a jar Destined to dissolve you are Atom by atom, flaw by flaw Slowly ground in the teeth of All The shape of shadows and light Puts out the dying fires inside Another soul embraces its end Never to reborn again With fear at heart you exhale your life And down, down, down you’ll stride Each impulse you’ve indulged Failure wears your ring Born a slave to wealth and fame Failure! Where’s your king? With the vortex streams of karmic gravity Sinking to the grosser realms beneath To the 8th sphere, the furnace of cosmos From whence returns none |

7. | With Black Aureoles | 04:22 | Show lyrics |
We fell and were dressed in skin As beasts to roam this labyrinth The voice of the Cosmic Mind Still echoes in the depths inside Behold these carnal forms Against a background of gold With black aureoles Spirit and matter, the balance and the battle Polarity - the basis of all living and dead The dragon and the serpent, the higher and the lower Polarity - the basis of all written and said By a modern means to an ancient end To pour reason on the minds once bent The "I" is nought without the "AM" Awareness, light the wick in man Full of the hunger to absorb more And to shine it all forth With black aureoles Spirit and matter, the balance and the battle Polarity - the basis of all living and dead The dragon and the serpent, the higher and the lower Polarity - the basis of all written and said The warmth on our backs Is the same on your chest And the cold beneath our feet Is the one on your flesh |

8. | Forsaking the Yoke | 06:21 | Show lyrics |
Burdened with no regret Caged not by hesitation The time of departure is set With eternity’s invitation Come death - the liberation Free me from each earthly boundary To reach the higher destination Where shape is no longer a necessity Arise death - the unresting stream Wash me clean from the filth of old To allow my spirit to breathe Far away from its tenacious hold Mourn not when this body dies After all, flesh is the yoke we all despise I discard the shell to unmask myself Ascending back from where I fell An early sundown at my shrine A leap into darkness from the greyness of life In vain are the tries to redeem my soul For this son of Satan is marching home Could not grasp the skies When this flesh held me down Now that my time is ripe Fire shall become my crown |

1. | Moving Mountains | 06:42 | Show lyrics |
As one rope loosens, another then tightens Far too long we’ve been strangled and tied This sick circle of shame must now finally break So that honour may again walk by our side Roamers of the path of many paths Now the hour has come for us to act With inhuman hatred and intensity To ram down the monoliths of fallacy At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for The ethics and laws that we deeply abhor Have left mere rust and rot in their wake So each such child of the holiest of lies Together with their fathers shall be slain The storm of rebellion will never calm down In the raging hearts of the truly devout So hold not a moment more thy fury back For swords are made to cut and daggers to stab At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for Enthralling is the scent of burning shrines And the sound of crumbling hierarchies As after this disgraceful time The true nature in us can once again breathe May lips wet with blood to the world now proclaim: At last the Beast if free and, verily, so shall remain! In the chanting winds of this glorious black night We hold the scalps of the crushed rulers high Without swaying a hammer or piling any stones Where once their towers stood we raise our own At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for |

2. | The Kings to Come | 06:51 | Show lyrics |
Like puny insects without a destination In the mud of Malkuth these bodies crawl But our eyes are fixed beyond the horizon Where our sidereal thrones are towering tall Silent is the call to splendour in man Felt by billions yet indulged by few Inertia and ruin walk hand in hand In a world that idleness has consumed Equality is the ruthless slayer of liberty When those are beheaded that rise above Seemingly desirable it leads to constraint And all such deception we must renounce Just as beasts become men so shall kings turn into gods Life by life to slowly ascend towards the sanctum of stars Ekpyrosis, you may soon swallow us all But we shall not atone in your fatal flames For our fate is certain and will so strong That from your grasp we shall escape Like puny insects without a destination In the mud of Malkuth these bodies crawl But our minds are freed beyond the horizon Where sacred words sound through cosmic halls That which we yearn with force we’re to take For anything worthy is never handed down It is the heart and not will that must cave If you wish to touch the heavens unbound Only in the abyss true godhood is forged Through sacrifice and pain our passage goes Thus the road to glory remains uncrowded As the price for this is too great for most Just as beasts become men so shall kings turn into gods Life by life to slowly ascend towards the sanctum of stars |

3. | The Phosphorescent | 05:42 | Show lyrics |
We who were lifted from the moral swamp of man Stand with eyes turned upwards and ashes on our wings Arose we like titans in this immense heat of power That melted into creeks the shackles ’round our limbs The blazing light of Satan with passion we adore As there is not an emblem of wisdom more sublime So pure in its essence that a shadow it casts not But penetrates the body and the spirit alike Once marked as His own... Forever we now glow Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved Unharmed we’ll remain by the virtue of our oath Though fangs wound the flesh and venom fills the veins In this garden where we blossom with fully opened petals The things long forgotten are those about to dawn And the tips of our branches that stretch ever inwards Reach through the veil of being to touch the face of Naught On the path of Boundless Life... Death means not demise Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved How lost are they whose eyes never adapt To the darkness that reveals the treasures of the Self How cursed are they whose ears never adjust To the silence that recites the words we once forgot And how dead are they whose hearts never react To the forces that transfix all dimensions with their call Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved |

4. | On Blackening Soil | 05:17 | Show lyrics |
Oh, old nightsky, how furious is thy ordnance When the edge of the crescent cuts thee in half I sense thy stare on my soul and substance While the cape of Neptune conceals our stars Inside a circle we form another out of flesh Awe mires with confusion as the planets align Gathered around him that bears the wreath In the darkness that drowns s like a rising tide From the icy peaks of Meru to the depths of the sea All this shall be yours if you now hearken to me Thevetat, the dragon among snakes Master crowned king with wisdom most veiled With lips shut share us the legacy The godly gnosis that twines about thee Sense of power pervades each thought As the pulse in our veins is quaking the ground The patterns of humility are condemned to fall By the arrows of spells shooting from our mouths Climb towards the roots of the inverted tree For to rise above the angels is your rightful destiny Thevetat, the dragon among snakes Master most august by foulness impaled With lips shut share us the legacy The godly gnosis that lives within thee Indeed we are here to stride as giants Instead of crawling in the dirt like infants May not our eminence be questioned by any heart For we truly possess the means to rend such apart |

From the One that beyond thought is seated Cascaded forth the drops of blood aflame And this blinding rain of stars was greeted With the abysmal depths of existence agape The radiant sons of the blackest light In the mirror image of Kosmos reside With these tongues the serpents speak With these lungs the serpents breathe Still adapting to the poisonous essence To the strong walls of earthly presence The obliteration of our growing decline Storms at the behest of Lucifer himself To kindle awake the pyres divine Smouldering within these carnal cells Thickening matter with its relentless hands Flagellated the high powers into dormancy But though bolted fast by the flesh of man In time they shall restore full vitality A call is upon the gods we hear inside From their aeon-long slumber to arise With these eyes the serpents see With these minds the serpents dream Swloyly surpassing the strict boundaries Set by our narrow and weak abilities The obliteration of our growing decline Storms at the behest of Lucifer himself To kindle awake the pyres divine Smouldering within these carnal cells On the great day the drops are rejoining The vast sea of fire will be all-destroying The stellar substance and the soul of man In world’s warm ashes as one then stand The obliteration of our growing decline Storms at the behest of Lucifer himself To kindle awake the pyres divine Smouldering within these carnal cells |

Solely in Thy presence frely I breathe Set apart from the choking world of fetters Forlorn will be each vain objective Butchered all ingrained penitence Release me from all that is illusive From humanity grant relinquishment The shadow of Thy horns will keep me cold Sheltered from the treacherous warmth of matter I have given Thee my thoughts Thus them Thou wlil and shall conduct I have offered Theee my flesh Thus it Thou will and shall corrupt My mind is the temple of worship And body the altar of sacrifice By will and devotion is hastened The elevation above this mortal life Heed, Father in darkness, unto my wordless call And from mundade veils now strip this spirit bare As with deepest obeisance in my pounding heart I kneel before the scorching five-armed star Responding the unearthly vibrations This ego is medium for the sinister As prism to refract the dreadful rays Streaming from the Eyes of Chaos Madly with the thirst of a deserthound I drink from the river of satanic might Committed I am to perfect this crown Placed on my head by the hands of Thine Thou have set me upon this path Thus it I will and shall tread forth Thou have opened me these ralms Thus them I will and shall explore The rock I stand on can’t be moved For it rests upon Thy sanctity Each word of reverence I utter Shall pass my lips in awe for thee Heed, Father in darkness, unto my wordless call And from mundade veils now strip this spirit bare As with deepest obeisance in my pounding heart I kneel before the scorching five-armed star |

The crack in the earth Between us grows wide There’s dread on your face But certainty on mine We differ in essence Like night does from day I’m a proud servant But you’re just a slave At the opposite ends Of the rope we are You with blue lips I with sore palms This scene is a symbol For the fate of mankind Future made flesh A glimpse of coming times |

That which from chaos surfaced In chaos shall eventually drown Buried in the same restless womb From whence it once crept out Be it the most majesic mountain Or a leaf floating down a creek Both equally pulverized ino naught Under the merciless cosmic feet Prayers are but waste of breath They fade into the roaring storm And even if they reached a god Not one could match this force As Nothing consumes Everything The glasshouse of creation shall shatter and fal Like Lamia lurking by the cradle The Mother has nurtured Her child And as the hor of filicide is at hand She acts without a tear or a smile Accept the nature of the process Its monumentum can never cease Bend your knee, bow down your head Give praise to this grand release As Nothing consumes Everything The weeds of existence spring up no more From dream to reality From frail to perfection From extant to noumenal From one and one to none As Nothing consumes Everything No matter how sacred, all life must end |

That which from chaos surfaced In chaos shall eventually drown Buried in the same restless womb From whence it once crept out Be it the most majesic mountain Or a leaf floating down a creek Both equally pulverized ino naught Under the merciless cosmic feet Prayers are but waste of breath They fade into the roaring storm And even if they reached a god Not one could match this force As Nothing consumes Everything The glasshouse of creation shall shatter and fal Like Lamia lurking by the cradle The Mother has nurtured Her child And as the hor of filicide is at hand She acts without a tear or a smile Accept the nature of the process Its monumentum can never cease Bend your knee, bow down your head Give praise to this grand release As Nothing consumes Everything The weeds of existence spring up no more From dream to reality From frail to perfection From extant to noumenal From one and one to none As Nothing consumes Everything No matter how sacred, all life must end |

1. | Moving Mountains | 06:42 | Show lyrics |
As one rope loosens, another then tightens Far too long we’ve been strangled and tied This sick circle of shame must now finally break So that honour may again walk by our side Roamers of the path of many paths Now the hour has come for us to act With inhuman hatred and intensity To ram down the monoliths of fallacy At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for The ethics and laws that we deeply abhor Have left mere rust and rot in their wake So each such child of the holiest of lies Together with their fathers shall be slain The storm of rebellion will never calm down In the raging hearts of the truly devout So hold not a moment more thy fury back For swords are made to cut and daggers to stab At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for Enthralling is the scent of burning shrines And the sound of crumbling hierarchies As after this disgraceful time The true nature in us can once again breathe May lips wet with blood to the world now proclaim: At last the Beast if free and, verily, so shall remain! In the chanting winds of this glorious black night We hold the scalps of the crushed rulers high Without swaying a hammer or piling any stones Where once their towers stood we raise our own At the mass grave of religions man’s triumphant age begins The heartblood of these tyrants will wash us clean of sin We’ll stand among the victors through this colossal war The sight of moving mountains is what we are here for |

2. | The Kings to Come | 06:51 | Show lyrics |
Like puny insects without a destination In the mud of Malkuth these bodies crawl But our eyes are fixed beyond the horizon Where our sidereal thrones are towering tall Silent is the call to splendour in man Felt by billions yet indulged by few Inertia and ruin walk hand in hand In a world that idleness has consumed Equality is the ruthless slayer of liberty When those are beheaded that rise above Seemingly desirable it leads to constraint And all such deception we must renounce Just as beasts become men so shall kings turn into gods Life by life to slowly ascend towards the sanctum of stars Ekpyrosis, you may soon swallow us all But we shall not atone in your fatal flames For our fate is certain and will so strong That from your grasp we shall escape Like puny insects without a destination In the mud of Malkuth these bodies crawl But our minds are freed beyond the horizon Where sacred words sound through cosmic halls That which we yearn with force we’re to take For anything worthy is never handed down It is the heart and not will that must cave If you wish to touch the heavens unbound Only in the abyss true godhood is forged Through sacrifice and pain our passage goes Thus the road to glory remains uncrowded As the price for this is too great for most Just as beasts become men so shall kings turn into gods Life by life to slowly ascend towards the sanctum of stars |

3. | The Phosphorescent | 05:42 | Show lyrics |
We who were lifted from the moral swamp of man Stand with eyes turned upwards and ashes on our wings Arose we like titans in this immense heat of power That melted into creeks the shackles ’round our limbs The blazing light of Satan with passion we adore As there is not an emblem of wisdom more sublime So pure in its essence that a shadow it casts not But penetrates the body and the spirit alike Once marked as His own... Forever we now glow Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved Unharmed we’ll remain by the virtue of our oath Though fangs wound the flesh and venom fills the veins In this garden where we blossom with fully opened petals The things long forgotten are those about to dawn And the tips of our branches that stretch ever inwards Reach through the veil of being to touch the face of Naught On the path of Boundless Life... Death means not demise Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved How lost are they whose eyes never adapt To the darkness that reveals the treasures of the Self How cursed are they whose ears never adjust To the silence that recites the words we once forgot And how dead are they whose hearts never react To the forces that transfix all dimensions with their call Our anthems we sing to the Sun of million forms For it is by His rays that illusions are dissolved |

Oh, old nightsky, how furious is thy ordnance When the edge of the crescent cuts thee in half I sense thy stare on my soul and substance While the cape of Neptune conceals our stars Inside a circle we form another out of flesh Awe mires with confusion as the planets align Gathered around him that bears the wreath In the darkness that drowns s like a rising tide From the icy peaks of Meru to the depths of the sea All this shall be yours if you now hearken to me Thevetat, the dragon among snakes Master crowned king with wisdom most veiled With lips shut share us the legacy The godly gnosis that twines about thee Sense of power pervades each thought As the pulse in our veins is quaking the ground The patterns of humility are condemned to fall By the arrows of spells shooting from our mouths Climb towards the roots of the inverted tree For to rise above the angels is your rightful destiny Thevetat, the dragon among snakes Master most august by foulness impaled With lips shut share us the legacy The godly gnosis that lives within thee Indeed we are here to stride as giants Instead of crawling in the dirt like infants May not our eminence be questioned by any heart For we truly possess the means to rend such apart |

From the One that beyond thought is seated Cascaded forth the drops of blood aflame And this blinding rain of stars was greeted With the abysmal depths of existence agape The radiant sons of the blackest light In the mirror image of Kosmos reside With these tongues the serpents speak With these lungs the serpents breathe Still adapting to the poisonous essence To the strong walls of earthly presence The obliteration of our growing decline Storms at the behest of Lucifer himself To kindle awake the pyres divine Smouldering within these carnal cells Thickening matter with its relentless hands Flagellated the high powers into dormancy But though bolted fast by the flesh of man In time they shall restore full vitality A call is upon the gods we hear inside From their aeon-long slumber to arise With these eyes the serpents see With these minds the serpents dream Swloyly surpassing the strict boundaries Set by our narrow and weak abilities The obliteration of our growing decline Storms at the behest of Lucifer himself To kindle awake the pyres divine Smouldering within these carnal cells On the great day the drops are rejoining The vast sea of fire will be all-destroying The stellar substance and the soul of man In world’s warm ashes as one then stand The obliteration of our growing decline Storms at the behest of Lucifer himself To kindle awake the pyres divine Smouldering within these carnal cells |

1. | A Living Grave | 06:41 | Show lyrics |
I am many and we are one Seeketh I must and findeth we shall From the tunnels most abhorred I, the unclean, once crawled forth Dripping with fluids repulsive and vile Haunting the night, ravaging minds The stench of human fear is addictive A source of bliss there is in each victim Waiting for that moment so sweet to arrive When you are lost, that’s when I’ll strike I am many and we are one Taketh I must and feedeth we shall ...and feedeth we shall! Though I slash you open And brand my mantra on your skin It’s not your flesh I’m after But what lies deep within Only a fool would mistake this for a dream A death-struggle this is And resistance just strengthens me! No force, no light, no flame Just a dead soul in a living grave I am many and we are one Taketh I have and returneth we shall |

2. | With a Thorn in Our Hearts | 07:32 | Show lyrics |
From the shapeless seed of Death grew the most dreadful wonder Towering unseen over all existence Its roots are wrapped tight around Creation’s throat And God’s all faces drown in the shadow of its Crown In waking... In dreaming... In dreamless sleep we’re drawn By signs and fate towards that vast sinister source And the song of ravens will guide us forth Attempt to approach in hope of consolation And lost you’ll be in the freezing wasteland But come thirsting for unearthly strength And you may find the bliss that never ends Seasons rise, seasons fall Yet the Tree of Night is florescent forevermore A venomous thorn from its blackest bough Is buried deep in the chests of the chosen Piercing the side of the heart every time it beats Never to let us forget what we truly seek Sancti Satanae plena sunt omnia Letum et dolor lumen sunt in gloria Invoking... Beseeching... In prayer and rites we’re torn Reborn and slain again by that transforming force And the song of ravens keeps raging on! Come and harvest the fruit of rebellion Partake in the orgy of apotheosis To stand upright and to choose your own way Eat of this offering and nothing will be the same Kingdoms rise, kingdoms fall Yet the Tree of Night is florescent forevermore A venomous thorn from its blackest bough Is buried deep in the chests of the chosen Piercing the side of the heart every time it beats To wake us up from this cursed cosmic dream |

3. | Only the Reflection Bleeds | 06:40 | Show lyrics |
I fell... And I arose And fall I shall again, choosing so! The deeper the cut The dearer the scar Each arrow of strife just hardens my shield Replacing soul’s rags with an armour of steel I bleed... But not to atone Pain is my patron, ever be it so! Sealed is my fate, thus it I embrace It’s carved on my heart and runs through these veins Ignite me, Father, for I yearn to burn... The graver the loss The greater the gain Bane is a blessing to those who can see That no trees will rise unless the seeds cease to be Profanity’s lead turned to spiritual gold Through the death of vain roles true destinies unfold When you wish to liberate a man Destroy the world that surrounds him And when you seek to crown a god Slay that man that has bound him... Slay that man that has bound him... Still! |

4. | Under the Arrow Star | 05:43 | Show lyrics |
Red is the winding way that leads me to the gate And black the path beyond running through unknown plains In the heat of combat, in all untamed love To fall like a warrior is to rise like the sun For the one that truly has awakened to know In the strangest patterns the cosmos unfolds Even the most wondrous chimeras of flesh In the eyes of a true beholder equal nothingness In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone With the wine of attainment the earth will be fed Where I shall once fall rewarded with death A thousand vultures will haunt that place Each taking a beakful until bare bones remain In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone Place thou upon my altar the head of humility And in a cup beside it the blood of mundane dreams In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone |

The saviour within Adored are thou Rise, rise From the depths of the mind Awaken from the slumber For the hour has come High, high To the arch of the skies By the turning of the wheel Thy reign has begun The one dead but dreaming Open that which is above To that which is below! The saviour without Adored are thou |

6. | Wine Within | 04:38 | Show lyrics |
For aeons and aeons We’ve witnessed the journey of the sun And the moon voyaging across the sky And still we know that neither shine forever ...forever like we shine We keep the water of faith flowing For that is dead which stands still In the ceaseless act of going Hides the key to doing our will Wed are the lunar and the solar Silver and gold are mixed together The left and the right turned into one thing The wine within For countless ages We’ve experienced the wonder of birth And death cutting down life’s puny weeds And still we know that neither are eternal ...eternal like our deeds Deep into Nightside’s ice-cold womb With dark intent we plant these spells As magical seeds shall they strike root In the soil within ourselves as well Wed are the lunar and the solar Silver and gold are mixed together The left and the right turned into one thing The wine within May the opposer Drink deep of this sacrament As a token of our oath to Him We formulate this offering |

7. | For Thirteen Moons | 07:56 | Show lyrics |
Thrice - anointed with the elixir of offering The candles around me have nearly come to life And as the salamanders are dancing their magic My eleven angles paint the walls of this shrine Here I sit at the confluence Of the old and the new At the crossroads of all That is not and what will be Each fiber in my being Resonates with the objective This art is my temple And none other shall I need Life force is spilled, the intent voiced Strong is my will, may all hindrance recoil Awaken and will a flame... And a flame will awaken! Words vanish from sight Blood becomes ash Amidst the thickest black Is seated the shining Baphomet Channeling the blessing Casting the curse most grim So that I may approach the void And be that much closer to Him Life force was spilled, the intent voiced Strong is my will, may all hindrance recoil Awaken and will a flame... And a flame will awaken! |

8. | Triunity | 05:55 | Show lyrics |
A time tailored after an ancient design With stellar formations positioned aright Mercilessly pound the hammers of Sin Forging into form the dusk on Adam’s kin In silvery streams the earth now bathes By their touch feathers change to scales Unhallowed goddess, all nightmares at her feet A perfect sanctum for the master’s seed Wet with divine lust, all lesser wants forsaken Herself she opens as the shadows awaken Behold the beast, behold his queen Behold their pact of obscenity Bow your heads down... To her, the anointed harlot To her who is forever lewd And to him, the venom of God To him that can’t be subdued In unison their psalms all ravens intone Across the dimensions this hymn now flows And the Day of the Scythe is ushered in… Exalt the beast, exalt his queen Exalt the one that completes the three Raise your cups high... To her, the darkside’s whore To her who is of the night And to him, the heart of blackness To him who begets the child In their towers made of severed heads They are high enough to touch the moon As monoliths have now arisen The ones cast out from heaven! |

9. | The Way of the Scales | 07:05 | Show lyrics |
My voice is fire and the wind is my herald Watch the world burn as I start to howl There’s a sense of loss in its ashes’ warmth But also freedom from what weighs us down The quintessence of the thirst for knowledge Fuels this toilsome journey through hell It is the purest venom from the forbidden fountains The serpent’s dew that awakens the self Each step further from Eden is a step of a dawning god No true crown can be granted to a spineless heap of mud I have listened and I have heard I have watched and I have seen From the shadow I began to learn The dark, the black and the spectrum between Dived I deep into the oil black waters Not to drown and vanish but to surface on the other side Sinking through blackness, so dense and cold To seize the gift of birth through demise Those who approach perdition from new angles and sides Can once through the depths reach the apex of heights For certain I simply cannot know What will await me at the end of this road But be it a scepter in my hand Or the kiss of an axe on my neck Proudly I have traveled there And my fate I shall gladly accept |

In dreamless sleep we’re drawn By signs and fate towards that vast sinister source And the song of ravens will guide us forth Attempt to approach in hope of consolation And lost you’ll be in the freezing wasteland But come thirsting for unearthly strength And you may find the bliss that never ends Seasons rise, seasons fall Yet the Tree of Night is florescent forevermore A venomous thorn from its blackest bough Is buried deep in the chests of the chosen Piercing the side of the heart every time it beats Never to let us forget what we truly seek Sancti Satanae plena sunt omnia Letum et dolor lumen sunt in gloria Invoking... Beseeching... In prayer and rites we’re torn Reborn and slain again by that transforming force And the song of ravens keeps raging on! Come and harvest the fruit of rebellion Partake in the orgy of apotheosis To stand upright and to choose your own way Eat of this offering and nothing will be the same Kingdoms rise, kingdoms fall Yet the Tree of Night is florescent forevermore A venomous thorn from its blackest bough Is buried deep in the chests of the chosen Piercing the side of the heart every time it beats To wake us up from this cursed cosmic dream |

I fell... And I arose And fall I shall again, choosing so! The deeper the cut The dearer the scar Each arrow of strife just hardens my shield Replacing soul’s rags with an armour of steel I bleed... But not to atone Pain is my patron, ever be it so! Sealed is my fate, thus it I embrace It’s carved on my heart and runs through these veins Ignite me, Father, for I yearn to burn... The graver the loss The greater the gain Bane is a blessing to those who can see That no trees will rise unless the seeds cease to be Profanity’s lead turned to spiritual gold Through the death of vain roles true destinies unfold When you wish to liberate a man Destroy the world that surrounds him And when you seek to crown a god Slay that man that has bound him... Slay that man that has bound him... Still! |

Red is the winding way that leads me to the gate And black the path beyond running through unknown plains In the heat of combat, in all untamed love To fall like a warrior is to rise like the sun For the one that truly has awakened to know In the strangest patterns the cosmos unfolds Even the most wondrous chimeras of flesh In the eyes of a true beholder equal nothingness In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone With the wine of attainment the earth will be fed Where I shall once fall rewarded with death A thousand vultures will haunt that place Each taking a beakful until bare bones remain In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone Place thou upon my altar the head of humility And in a cup beside it the blood of mundane dreams In the fort of eternity is my home Upon the triangle of ice I have set my throne I follow not the ones above, nor lead those below In this magical universe I am alone |

The saviour within Adored are thou Rise, rise From the depths of the mind Awaken from the slumber For the hour has come High, high To the arch of the skies By the turning of the wheel Thy reign has begun The one dead but dreaming Open that which is above To that which is below! The saviour without Adored are thou |

For aeons and aeons We’ve witnessed the journey of the sun And the moon voyaging across the sky And still we know that neither shine forever ...forever like we shine We keep the water of faith flowing For that is dead which stands still In the ceaseless act of going Hides the key to doing our will Wed are the lunar and the solar Silver and gold are mixed together The left and the right turned into one thing The wine within For countless ages We’ve experienced the wonder of birth And death cutting down life’s puny weeds And still we know that neither are eternal ...eternal like our deeds Deep into Nightside’s ice-cold womb With dark intent we plant these spells As magical seeds shall they strike root In the soil within ourselves as well Wed are the lunar and the solar Silver and gold are mixed together The left and the right turned into one thing The wine within May the opposer Drink deep of this sacrament As a token of our oath to Him We formulate this offering |

Thrice - anointed with the elixir of offering The candles around me have nearly come to life And as the salamanders are dancing their magic My eleven angles paint the walls of this shrine Here I sit at the confluence Of the old and the new At the crossroads of all That is not and what will be Each fiber in my being Resonates with the objective This art is my temple And none other shall I need Life force is spilled, the intent voiced Strong is my will, may all hindrance recoil Awaken and will a flame... And a flame will awaken! Words vanish from sight Blood becomes ash Amidst the thickest black Is seated the shining Baphomet Channeling the blessing Casting the curse most grim So that I may approach the void And be that much closer to Him Life force was spilled, the intent voiced Strong is my will, may all hindrance recoil Awaken and will a flame... And a flame will awaken! |

A time tailored after an ancient design With stellar formations positioned aright Mercilessly pound the hammers of Sin Forging into form the dusk on Adam’s kin In silvery streams the earth now bathes By their touch feathers change to scales Unhallowed goddess, all nightmares at her feet A perfect sanctum for the master’s seed Wet with divine lust, all lesser wants forsaken Herself she opens as the shadows awaken Behold the beast, behold his queen Behold their pact of obscenity Bow your heads down... To her, the anointed harlot To her who is forever lewd And to him, the venom of God To him that can’t be subdued In unison their psalms all ravens intone Across the dimensions this hymn now flows And the Day of the Scythe is ushered in… Exalt the beast, exalt his queen Exalt the one that completes the three Raise your cups high... To her, the darkside’s whore To her who is of the night And to him, the heart of blackness To him who begets the child In their towers made of severed heads They are high enough to touch the moon As monoliths have now arisen The ones cast out from heaven! |

3. | The Way of the Scales | 07:05 | Show lyrics |
My voice is fire and the wind is my herald Watch the world burn as I start to howl There’s a sense of loss in its ashes’ warmth But also freedom from what weighs us down The quintessence of the thirst for knowledge Fuels this toilsome journey through hell It is the purest venom from the forbidden fountains The serpent’s dew that awakens the self Each step further from Eden is a step of a dawning god No true crown can be granted to a spineless heap of mud I have listened and I have heard I have watched and I have seen From the shadow I began to learn The dark, the black and the spectrum between Dived I deep into the oil black waters Not to drown and vanish but to surface on the other side Sinking through blackness, so dense and cold To seize the gift of birth through demise Those who approach perdition from new angles and sides Can once through the depths reach the apex of heights For certain I simply cannot know What will await me at the end of this road But be it a scepter in my hand Or the kiss of an axe on my neck Proudly I have traveled there And my fate I shall gladly accept |

I am many and we are one Seeketh I must and findeth we shall From the tunnels most abhorred I, the unclean, once crawled forth Dripping with fluids repulsive and vile Haunting the night, ravaging minds The stench of human fear is addictive A source of bliss there is in each victim Waiting for that moment so sweet to arrive When you are lost, that’s when I’ll strike I am many and we are one Taketh I must and feedeth we shall ...and feedeth we shall! Though I slash you open And brand my mantra on your skin It’s not your flesh I’m after But what lies deep within Only a fool would mistake this for a dream A death-struggle this is And resistance just strengthens me! No force, no light, no flame Just a dead soul in a living grave I am many and we are one Taketh I have and returneth we shall |

[While incarnate, man is equally an entity of intellect and flesh, and neither aspect should be overlooked in the context of establishing and maintaining a connection to our gods. To worship merely in the temple of the mind is to wield the sword with just one hand.] A cold presence descends on us like some mist of blackest water drenched in this darkness we are cleansed from all profane The circle is forming there’s no way nor will to retreat with faith as our fortress we’ve discarded doubt and shame Be with me now, o’ children of Samael our mouths are one as we drink from the fullmoon’s well No path is stonier than this No path as tortouous as His With the ichor of highest magick the Master moistened our lips He taught us the craft of Speech and thus we’ll make our voices heard The Kingdom is ours to rule and the heavens are in our grasp let our words of power reach all the quarters of the earth Move, dance, give away to this trance may hand join in hoof and hoof in hand sing, praise, as lust smears your face no act is unlawful in His pyre’s blaze Sin, transgress, put each border to a test grant divine impulse full reign over flesh boil and seethe from head down to heels with fervour feed the God that lives in deeds Stand with me now, o’ servants of Samael our mounts are one as we eat of the sun that fell No path is deadlier than this No path as glorious as His |

From a single seed I have grown you an Eden from a drop of blood the gushing rivers around deep within I have prepared you a throne so flourish throughme with your root in my soul At the heart of the cross the elements join as one likewise has my road merged with yours become Naught more are men but pollen in the wind spreading your gospel far and wide where ever we may go your presence will follow not as a companion but as a murderous shadow At the heart of the cross the elements join as one likewise has my road merged with yours become One day upon my tomb a solitary beauty shall bloom and beneath it my weary bones lie bound by your root |

By my spell / the knots i tie to bring flames near without sound / passed from my lips right to your ear be thou bound / chains of dread will bind your thoughts be thou drowned / in a tide of spite your self is lost Hear these words of bane may their salt inflame the gaping wound that grows inside hear these words of bane may their salt turn grey the once-fertile soil of your mind At the break of the final dawn black vultures cloud the skies then, as if dipped in a lake of blood, your sun will rise red no warmth in its rays, no hope in its light and then your knees shall hit the mud from its heart rides death By this curse / the hounds of malice I invoke without sound / a thousant teeth will rip your throat be thou bound / forever sunk in restless sleep ’neath thy mound / nothing left but a maggot’s feast Feel these words of bane like shrapnel in your brain from this barless cage there’s but one way out feel these words of bane guide you to your grave yet death means not escape from hell’s hungry mouths At the break of the final dawn black vultures cloud the skies then, as if dipped in a lake of blood, your sun will rise red no warmth in its rays, no hope in its light and then your knees shall hit the mud from its heart rides death |

To worship merely in the temple of the mind is to wield the sword with just one hand.] A cold presence descends on us like some mist of blackest water drenched in this darkness we are cleansed from all profane The circle is forming there’s no way nor will to retreat with faith as our fortress we’ve discarded doubt and shame Be with me now, o’ children of Samael our mouths are one as we drink from the fullmoon’s well No path is stonier than this No path as tortouous as His With the ichor of highest magick the Master moistened our lips He taught us the craft of Speech and thus we’ll make our voices heard The Kingdom is ours to rule and the heavens are in our grasp let our words of power reach all the quarters of the earth Move, dance, give away to this trance may hand join in hoof and hoof in hand sing, praise, as lust smears your face no act is unlawful in His pyre’s blaze Sin, transgress, put each border to a test grant divine impulse full reign over flesh boil and seethe from head down to heels with fervour feed the God that lives in deeds Stand with me now, o’ servants of Samael our mounts are one as we eat of the sun that fell No path is deadlier than this No path as glorious as His |

From a single seed I have grown you an Eden from a drop of blood the gushing rivers around deep within I have prepared you a throne so flourish throughme with your root in my soul At the heart of the cross the elements join as one likewise has my road merged with yours become Naught more are men but pollen in the wind spreading your gospel far and wide where ever we may go your presence will follow not as a companion but as a murderous shadow At the heart of the cross the elements join as one likewise has my road merged with yours become One day upon my tomb a solitary beauty shall bloom and beneath it my weary bones lie bound by your root |

By my spell / the knots i tie to bring flames near without sound / passed from my lips right to your ear be thou bound / chains of dread will bind your thoughts be thou drowned / in a tide of spite your self is lost Hear these words of bane may their salt inflame the gaping wound that grows inside hear these words of bane may their salt turn grey the once-fertile soil of your mind At the break of the final dawn black vultures cloud the skies then, as if dipped in a lake of blood, your sun will rise red no warmth in its rays, no hope in its light and then your knees shall hit the mud from its heart rides death By this curse / the hounds of malice I invoke without sound / a thousant teeth will rip your throat be thou bound / forever sunk in restless sleep ’neath thy mound / nothing left but a maggot’s feast Feel these words of bane like shrapnel in your brain from this barless cage there’s but one way out feel these words of bane guide you to your grave yet death means not escape from hell’s hungry mouths At the break of the final dawn black vultures cloud the skies then, as if dipped in a lake of blood, your sun will rise red no warmth in its rays, no hope in its light and then your knees shall hit the mud from its heart rides death |

1. | In Your Midnight Orchard | 09:19 | Show lyrics |
[When we close our eyes and withdraw from the world around us, we awaken to perceive another beyond it. If we explore this limitless realm with willed steps, we are granted the opportunity to come in contact with the denizens of the Otherworld, to experience initiation and to even converse with the Divine.] Across the arcane bridge of soul-flight I have arrived in your domain where the great fair three as one shine yet the fourth still veiled remains As through these glades I wander strangest roses tear my skin they deepen the spell I’m under with your venom of hallowed sin Though I remember not, again I now know the language of owls that are guiding me back home Free my starving soul and chain my heart to this ardent hour of ecstasy with the sword of your splendor pierce my eyes make your radiance the last thing I’ll see The Gate of Eden is swung open I am a witness to your reign my life I offer you as a token for one drop from wisdom’s vein To you I pray, make me versed in your ways pale pilgrim with the bloodied crescent horns grant me strenght and on my head now place the wreath of silver thorns It is not your wrath that may crush me it is your love that must... Pain and relief, sorrows and joys they all shriek at me in your worldless voice Rend apart my heart and nail my soul to Night’s searing cross of severity with the speark of your judgement pierce my side make painful bliss the last thing I’ll feel |

[What else is worship at its coree but love and passionate adoration? What is devotion if not desire and striving for union?] Nearer and nearer draw the hours that re-join the Moon and her kin ignited by this longed shift of power the conflagration of hearts begins With the sap from the wound of Night’s saint the back of my head I anoint in your name Your grace captured in the waters of the soul the mortal vase stands holy and pure As naked as are the cloundless skies again I’ve entered your age-old shrine I proclaim with adamant belief no thing profane can dim this love I feel Serpentine shapes of swirling smoke move in rhythm with the tide they slither upwards to the stars’ abode as my gift to the Pearl on high I proclaim with adamant belief no thing profane can dim this love I feel In circles we dance like wraiths shifting between bright and grey masks until the last gate we penetrate and deep into your darkness pass |

[Even though we are born masters, we are raised to be slaves. To break free from this mode is not only an option for us, it is our sole duty as the godly seeds sown by times past.] From the womb of the suns, come forth from the blood of the past, now rise the runes carved in our bones through you shall come alive My mouth pours out your word and your scars mark my flesh may my hands do your Work and my feet take your steps In your grasp you hold the key to transcend what I currently am in your image create me anew blur the line between god and man When we are born masters why should we submit like dogs! Courage take over my heart strenght inhabit my being persistence my thoughts are yours to lead oh, bringers of salvation eclipse the human in me May my hands do your Work and my feet take your steps Be my aegis without bounds and the arrow in my bow an extension of my will the moonlight on my road Hear my call my thoughts are yours to lead Oh, bringers of salvation eclipse the human in me |

[To say that fate is what you make of is not entirely true. There are certain paths you are drawn to and bound to tread even if you might fool yourself to think otherwise. We can drink now or be led to the water later on but at some point drink we must.] Faceless faces behind masks of stone boneless bones clad in burning robes by hidden hands the wheels are turned through words unsaid their purpose learnt The paradox I live and breathe I roam its fields in thought and dream The silence within... it hums your symphony in the voice of thunder your angels sing to me Providence works in ways unknown more obscure couldn’t be its lantern’s glow yet by diverse means the web is spun and all the paths I take in the end are one Whichever is my role on Earth with your scarlet thread my heart is girt The silence within... it hums your symphony in the voice of thunder your angels sing to me And it all echoes throughout eternities |

[We don’t need to experience the reaper’s touch first-hand in order to appreaciate its liberating qualities. In time we all must go through the Grand Gate which he reveals to us. It is up to our hearts to decide whether the bone-key to that gate will be turned with a steady hand or that which shakes in fear.] With fingers of grey-white bone thrice you knock on my chamber door once for the mind, once for the soul once for the flesh twitching on the floor Cut the cords of time with sickle and scythe Under the wings of oblivion lies my haven in their shadow alone can I find rest from the book of being I have torn out the pages spilled I have the ink of eternal existence Many named you Mystery daring not to part your veil but I’ve stared you straight in the eye and I’ve learnt your real names Liberator, Redeemer, the Mask of Sooth your call is the knell that frees us from the Spell Untrue A universe is crushed... Naught remains the burden of the aeons past now I relinquish vanishing human memories, so fast forgotten like a handful of dirt thrown into the north wind The white fortress of thoughts the earth has claimed her own and the red mansion of life the abyss swallowed whole but the ice-cold void of eternity’s limitless vault will treasure the triumphant spark that furthers their fall Three thorns as black as coal you drove through my very core one for the mind, one for the soul one for the flesh lying on the floor Cut the cords of time with sickle and scythe On a narrow path my feet have trodden only the ghosts of frozen trees watching the steps the high hills of time I have traversed fighting my way through a world of shells to lie down with the wolves |

It is up to our hearts to decide whether the bone-key to that gate will be turned with a steady hand or that which shakes in fear.] With fingers of grey-white bone thrice you knock on my chamber door once for the mind, once for the soul once for the flesh twitching on the floor Cut the cords of time with sickle and scythe Under the wings of oblivion lies my haven in their shadow alone can I find rest from the book of being I have torn out the pages spilled I have the ink of eternal existence Many named you Mystery daring not to part your veil but I’ve stared you straight in the eye and I’ve learnt your real names Liberator, Redeemer, the Mask of Sooth your call is the knell that frees us from the Spell Untrue A universe is crushed... Naught remains the burden of the aeons past now I relinquish vanishing human memories, so fast forgotten like a handful of dirt thrown into the north wind The white fortress of thoughts the earth has claimed her own and the red mansion of life the abyss swallowed whole but the ice-cold void of eternity’s limitless vault will treasure the triumphant spark that furthers their fall Three thorns as black as coal you drove through my very core one for the mind, one for the soul one for the flesh lying on the floor Cut the cords of time with sickle and scythe On a narrow path my feet have trodden only the ghosts of frozen trees watching the steps the high hills of time I have traversed fighting my way through a world of shells to lie down with the wolves |

1. | Self-Exiled | 06:00 | Show lyrics |
Upon winding and stony trails, where the lead-hearted can never go, have I found the holiest of havens. The true North for a seeking soul. This congregation of crooked bodies and their motionless circle dance. It all resounds an unending poem of ordeal and murderous deeds most sacrosanct. Wherever I walk, stand, leap or stumble, it is there beneath my heels. Forever treated but never trampled the verdant field of our belief. Let once again the mundane drown in the rivers of eternity, and may magick unlost be newly found as I in you and you in me. A raven’s feather and my heart placed on your scales at the darkest moon. Which one weighs heavier, and which is blacker of the two? |

2. | Facing the North | 04:55 | Show lyrics |
As the sun is slowly cut by the jagged blade of the horizon, the sylvan kingdom around me unveils its blackening face. In my left eye flashes the silver sickle of sacrifice, the golden plate of offering shines in the right. O’ fire, fill my lungs, give swiftness to these words. By their beaks and claws ablaze are the gates once buried unearthed. With blood I bless you, with spells I crown you. With everything I am I make you holy and lay you down at His feet. In His left eye flashes the silver sickle of sacrifice, the golden plate of offering shines in the right. When the nightsky hymns give way to the song of the dawn. On the lips of witches is the God of Silence restored. |

3. | Aureate Water | 05:06 | Show lyrics |
Not even in the abyssal ocean did the nail from the sacred forge cool, and that iron thorn fallen from on high was driven into a soil ever-frozen. By it’s burning blessing everythig was transformed, the ice turned into a stream and the land into its sole vessel. Through more and more sacred drops the stream became a gushing river. Wild it flowed forth, consuming even the earth around it. Come the deadliest of droughts or a winter without end. The water will not still, its course will never bend. Day after day, night after night, my mind rides its hidden currents, and the mirror-like surface cradles my tuest reflection. The roaring will, the earthen heart. Their essence mixed together, their destination the same. The sea of your shoreless darkness! |

4. | The Upright Road | 05:27 | Show lyrics |
Great path-revealer, pluck out one of your million eyes and place it like a kiss upon my brow. Beholding with your godly vision, even if for a fleeting moment will unlock the shackles that hold me down. By the heat of celestial fire raining down from the silver lips, the brew of remembrance boils in the cauldron upturned. Luminaries most high with the mirror in my soul your rays align. Turn me into a beacon that lights up the night. Majesties of old, I shmash the mask against the altar stone. And fashion from the shards another to match your own. An opened book of timeless sorcery is the jewelled dome arching above me. In the presence of such wonders no blasphemy would be more grave than a heart unopened and sight self-restrained. By the heart of terrestrial fire rising up the crimson lips, the seed of reverence enters the blood-cup upturned. |

5. | At Their Table | 05:01 | Show lyrics |
By earth, by water, by air and fire, by spirit most pure I fling open the door. By word, by gesture, by songs that they inspire, by will most sound I call them forth. Where three roads lead and eight winds part stands our church beyond time and place. With hooves for feet and flames for heart around the same fount of power we pace. There is no higher honour than to sup at their table, no greater gift than this chalice we share. The feet that stomp the grave of my own Abel shall move to the rythm of a lifelong prayer. Bright Moon Lover, make this body writhe. Black Moon Mother, with your blood wash my eye. The wisdom of the dead I raise from the halls beneath, and the radiance of the stars I draw down. I speak the spells of old and echo each future deed, and bind them all in the eternal Now. There is no higher honour than to sup at their table, no greater gift than this chalice we share. The feet that stomp the grave of my own Abel shall move to the rythm of a lifelong prayer. |

6. | The Foe of Many Masks | 06:46 | Show lyrics |
With strength I am armoured, prayers grace the sword unsheathed. Armed to the teeth I am, with devoted thought and deed. In this war that has been fought since the blood in me unfroze, no sacrifice is too dire, no torment great enough to oppose. Foe, march your legions right at my kingdom’s edge. None may breach its bounds without being torn to shreds. There are things pure and sacred and those that seek their decline. Across the divide between them we meet eye to eye. It take a thousand masks to conceal one rotten core, but a single willed strike can make its dominion fall. For one last passing second I lose myself in your empty stare, facing me from the shards of the mirror. |

7. | Twice Eleven | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
A face of bone and dried blood hovers in the silken darkness, and unto it I am the mirror. In the orgy of graveyard shadows a gate was shown to me, and unto it I am the key. The skull of a noble beast is placed upon the stang. And I hold the cleaving sword, the liberator of its essence. In the mist of the morn we stand both triumphant and torn. Twice eleven times the death bell chimes, twice eleven are the poison drops in our wine. The ring of the Reaper, we all kiss at birth, we call him King, yet strangely shun His work. |

9. | To Flames the Flesh | 09:03 | Show lyrics |
A seed sown by the hands of the stars, fallen into the soil raked by the moon. Destined to rise like others before, to reach heavenwards from this earthly womb. With a femur from the corpse of the sun, time strikes the harvest drum. A tree grown by the light of the stars, fallen onto the soil graced by the moon. Bound to dissolve like others before, to link with its kin through this earthly tomb. Writ in blood and edged in stone is the solemn song of the silent crows. Swathe my flesh in the blackest satin adorned with the spells we shared. Lay me down on a bed of branches, and let the flames strike high. When at last I wake up to greet the horizons of blazing red, arms no longer extend from me but a pair of golden wings instead. |

A face of bone and dried blood hovers in the silken darkness, and unto it I am the mirror. In the orgy of graveyard shadows a gate was shown to me, and unto it I am the key. The skull of a noble beast is placed upon the stang. And I hold the cleaving sword, the liberator of its essence. In the mist of the morn we stand both triumphant and torn. Twice eleven times the death bell chimes, twice eleven are the poison drops in our wine. The ring of the Reaper, we all kiss at birth, we call him King, yet strangely shun His work. |

9. | To Flames the Flesh | 09:03 | Show lyrics |
A seed sown by the hands of the stars, fallen into the soil raked by the moon. Destined to rise like others before, to reach heavenwards from this earthly womb. With a femur from the corpse of the sun, time strikes the harvest drum. A tree grown by the light of the stars, fallen onto the soil graced by the moon. Bound to dissolve like others before, to link with its kin through this earthly tomb. Writ in blood and edged in stone is the solemn song of the silent crows. Swathe my flesh in the blackest satin adorned with the spells we shared. Lay me down on a bed of branches, and let the flames strike high. When at last I wake up to greet the horizons of blazing red, arms no longer extend from me but a pair of golden wings instead. |
