Awaiting...
01:00
|

As the evening spells were whispered
And invoking words were told
The flames from the embers arose
By silent trees which were behold
Then a prophet, a wise man said:
I see a beast, burning down our temples
Under a symbol of a cross-nailed man
Killing our children, for we're all pagans
He's not too far, from where now we stand,
And as Luna hid her silhouette behind the clouds,
From the dark, a christian stepped out...

A Winter Solstice Eve
05:29
|
|||
Seeds of the plague were rooted deep
Branches of malice grew above mountains majesty
Blood innocent was turned to wine
Flowing from wounds of ancient fathers of mine
Prophecies of flesh I now reveal
Under twilight skies of ebony
In the name of God and their belief
They killed and ordered me to kneel
But now they'll taste my will...
Ravens, gather flesh for feast
Rip hearts out of the bodies of our hated enemies
Tonight is the winter solstice eve
And damn, if I shall ever believe
Nation, the dirge for thee now I must sing
An everlasting elegy,
Of wonders I dream every night and day
That the suffering one day shall pass away...
But yet on my feet standing I remain
With hope I stare at the sleeping stones that once my brother were, awake!
...with hope I stare at the sleeping stones that once my brother were...
Blinded by wrath, walking rage path
For gods that were dethroned by messengers of death
Enslaved, Thus deep,
Vengeance is wine, the darkest sign
Dead nation's sons are gathered under heavens of thine
Enslaved, Thus deep,
This is the soil, whereupon my temple once stood
And these the ruins, surrounding this place of doom
Footsteps of time couldn't harm this testimony
Shall forever remind of the Winter Solstice Eve.

Prophecy
04:20
|
|||
Once the sleeping powers will awake,
From the darkest depths they'll arise,
Spreading across the seas of the holy land,
Like a plague they'll infect the world,
...And then the evil shall be born,
Sacrificing other's scorn,
Will quietly sit on its throne,
Empire of underground,
Will bury what wasn't found,
Will we be ready to rebound...
Prophecy...
And after last strike of darkness, the heavens were torn in two
And the blood of Seraphims fell upon the Earth,
The bounds of the netherworld were broken,
As the Satan's legions attacked
From the underworld a throne rose on the ground
Upon that throne, Lord of Darkness sat
Surrounded by pagan Gods
And the temples of God all burned to ashes
After two thousand years
Filled with the supremacy of filth
The king of eternal empire was enthroned... again,
The seed of Christ will be impaled,
Crucified on the mountain of the dead,
Ancient divinity shall unite that day,
With the Four Horsemen they'll ride,

The Fields of Tombs
04:48
|
|||
Once I took a journey into the dark of mine
To release the stream of questions why,
The thing I learned there was sad, almost made me cry
Inside the answers, there was emptiness' lullaby
And so it began, the journey without an end
It became my guide in facts I couldn't comprehend
...I couldn't comprehend
...Just couldn't comprehend,
Be welcome my deepest misery
My challenge to struggle again
Born on the fields of tombs
With evil I was to regain
I call the Inferno
I call its rain
I am the Kaos
I am the Pain
My only friend - I suffocate on greed divine
The war awaits, they've stepped beyond the line
Won't you be my company, my only alibi
The light is coming, it is now blinding my eyes

The Depths of Styx
04:03
|
|||
In the past, the shadows cannot fly
So watch the life, it is passing you by
In the walls you are those missing bricks
Join me, we shall swim in Styx
In the depths of Styx...Where the sorrow drowns its tears
In the depths of Styx...Where you're free of any fears
It welcomes you... It conceals you... It betrays you, my friend...
It awaits you... It raises you... It stains you, again,
For dark my visions seem, the moon whispers to me
This time thou'rt blind to see, time has come for thee
So called God wants thee dead, drowned in thy own tears
On the journey into Darkness, thy weakness is thy company
Those dark waters flow, Despair, and thou such hopeless
Stream takes thee away, the Truth, has lost its meaning
Voices from the dead side, the Pain, those tears are senseless
Shores appear dark, Struggle, for those who've never seen...
The stream of blackness heals your dying soul
In your boat you're losing control
Each soul a drop in the dead ocean
Flowing the fields without emotion...

1998 Anno Domini
06:37
|
|||
The old legend says that Pentagram shall win,
Faultless gold shall corrode, the gold with Christ within,
I will be the world's ruling Goat, Christ's children will be damned,
With virgin I'll incarnate we'll conquer the holy land
1998 rise of the fettered faith,
1998 Satan no longer waits...
Abaddon's abyss' opening in the empire where Tiamat reigns,
Mankind is not as one, falsity of Jahve rains,
Time of triumph comes, Nemesis awakes in me,
For enslaving me in my crypt my true face now is seen.

Each new dawn I die, with the sunrise I fade away,
Creating the last drop of the sweat on your face,
I am the evil that remains forgotten on the daylight,
To be (en)throned again when the demons awake the night.
Darkness I crave,
Nocturnal slave,
Four-cornered grave,
Cradle of the Pain...
Diving in black I suffocate,
Reading the rhymes of the twilight gates,
The spirit roams in the infinite nothingness,
Into the abyss falls my day,
Dark waters of Styx wash away,
The dreams that once belonged to emptiness,
You can't escape those dreams of gray,
Although with dawn I fade away,
When twilight comes, the wolves hunt for prey,
And when the sun falls I awake,
The Suffering shall last until you break,
Release of malice, the darkest stains...
Come and be my dream,
Just a silhouette of hope I see,
On the bed of thorns my body lies,
Awaiting the eternal sleep,
The pain we both did share,
Ment everything to me I swear,
Now without pleasure in the real world,
I shall dive in dreams, right there...
The creator of all the scars in the minds am I,
The real world Satan, hidden in every man,
The mirrors have two faces with the velvet signs of the pain,
Stories they may hide, they are no fairytales...
May I never close my eyes, for the pain the release of long-forgotten
Memories brings to me...
The Demons sleep in thee...
