Myriads In Spheres Without Time 1. Fragments Of The Hereafter Rays of light streaming in over me, (Shadows covering me) coldness is gripping me and my soul, (far beyond where no one can be) tears apart images of life (That way - far away) Will I travel beyond the astral light? (dead pulses in loneliness) (Silent sleeping) [Chorus:] From the inner sanctum of our souls Silence tears apart what is to come Frozen images set in stone Deceit of the realm which we know Halls of sorrow, pity and grief Mourning alone and beyond belief Cold grasps tightens around our necks Death rises, fulfills our lust for peace Through the mist striving to (My restless mind) keep the mind clear from scars, (rumbling like fallen stones) overwhelmed by nature's true reality, (From wild to paralysed,) lays waste my own integrity; disillusioned (I am touching my buried emotions) (coldly and mistily) [Chorus] Sinking into darkness, (I am in an air of mystery) hidden illusions of death and what is hereafter.. (Aims of death fulfill entirely) Our consciousness melts into ourselves Colossal wind and rain fortifies (Rays of frozen light) my own senses, visualize what is within, (fossilize my curious mind,) striving to know the incomprehensible (Evince what is within) Moulding a true belief (Dead pulses in loneliness) (unveiling the secrets) [Chorus] Fulfills our lust for peace 2. The Day Of Wrath Like shadows we fall into the great beyond Lost in the veil of time, souls to become darkness in light Floating in a whirl of tears, dark wounds of evil betrayal Dolo malo [Chorus:] Sinking rapidly into eternity Callous hostility Driven to insanity We see the stars beyond, rising amongst the heavens Utterings from thunderous voices sounding like a symphony Entwined with roaring screams from the realms of hades De profundis [Chorus] To be like the angels, we are crying higher in despair, falling down from heavens, hades raging voices do remind of the darkest evil fire Flames from the eternal depths mounting high above us reaching up infinitely high, boundaries devoured Smoke of sulphur in the sky darkening the gospel Dies irae Under the dark skies in the flames On the darkest day lit up by fire Gathering of warriors, not the mortal kind Prepared to fight in the great battle Hail and fire mixed with blood overwhelm the shattered earth Agonizing screams of man longing for the everlasting death There is no more time for dying, mortal souls condemned forever In acternum [Chorus] Deepest in the great beyond, hidden by the dust of ashes Hunting in the gloomiest dawn, to be kissed by tongues of fire Feel the brutal kiss of death as they all collide in anger Hosts of spirits fight against hierarchies of fallen angels Come with me and you will see We are all doomed, without sympathy Listen to the endless screams coming from unfearful minds In this emptiness they fly, judged to perdition forever Our lost fate, we are truly forlorn as we fall into eternity 3. Spheres Without Time As we are heading forwards, our footsteps are treading in old paths of glory to be seen and redeemed What I am, this dimension of mine has no time, I am the dreams of the universe [Chorus:] Heavenly, immortally the dreams do flow in circles carried by the stars beyond In my elusive dreams I am torn apart I am forever vanquished Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Cold, dead and pale, eyes dry and veiled Souls burnt and vanished, feeding the ground Infusing a bride, giving birth to life As landscapes change and erupt, we will flower, glow and wither repeatedly, cosmic ideas I am gliding like a sphere over you, pouring out the cosmic fantasy, which is eternalized [Chorus] Your life is but an empty shell without understanding I try to realize what makes the glory of myself Filled by blood, veins of life soon all turned to dust Hunting at the shadows from an alien rival The pulse of life, the time of mine Melts in the storm of this unchangeable world My dreams will die in spheres without time Without time, my dreams are hopeless, what am I without any paths or landscapes to explore, I will perish Heavenly immortality - to dissolve and travel up to this hidden dimension [Chorus] 4. Seductive Hate In aeons of time we travel afar Through shields of misery, undying journey [Chorus:] I will rise above you From o'er, I see you in the valleys being wasted, weak and miserable My spirit forever high I always will be the invincible My hate is stronger than yours Hate rising like wings from a raven being darkest in the night; I am shimmering, But still I need you But you will always be near me The cosmic storms are everlasting Explosive chemistry between you and me [Chorus] The strongest feelings of man makes us slaves of each other We seek, we find, we love, we HATE Cold bloody people, seem to be Face firmly stuck, cannot be torn free Sorrows too dark for the day to see Bound by seduction - immortal greed The pale-faced moon looking coldly at the earth, her gaze reflected from a superior force To dreamers of the night she brings magical signs, she reveals the truth: the fear of mine Rays from above cover my anger, like dark shadows from my own betrayal My deepest wounds of hidden pain, shreds my thoughts and rapes my brain In our grandiose flight, thoughts collide and die We collapse in hate, our dishearted pride I will rise up to you I am coming to meet you in the valleys when you are wasted, weak and miserable But my spirit is too weak to fight I always will be the invincible My hate is bleached by yours Hate dawning like wings from a raven being darkest in the night, I am shimmering I truly need you And you will always be near me 5. Dreams Of Reality My impressions, my memories, like a spirit's biology Feeling the silent breeze through the branches, caressing my dreams peacefully in harmony Sensitive signs entangle my mind [Chorus:] An alien activity Myriads of atoms converging to cells creating my memories, this cosmos of chaos in me My inner slumber, streams of reflections, veils of impressions, misty diffusion Transparent visions, the center of me [Chorus:] The alien activity Myriads of atoms converging to cells creating my memories, this cosmos of chaos in me The freezing winds in your mind stir up your sense of time Like the dark quakes from below ruin your self-control Whisperings from me shimmering, I am like an asp-tree shaking in the wind which carry my leaves Your reality is shaped by your dreams What is confusing me? I am losing control Awakened surreality affects your fantasy I am awake with my fantasies Entwine in unity, strengthening your belief Far away from nature's true activities All-embracing chemistry I have dreams of reality River of visions hidden by my body, opens this flowing, unlimited dimension of mine Reality of memories [Chorus:] This alien activity Myriads of atoms converging to cells creating my memories, this cosmos of chaos in me This unknown activity of yours Consists of atoms converging to cells They create your memories They build a chaos of cosmos in you Line-up: Mona Undheim Skottene : Piano / Keyboards / Vocals Alexander Twiss : Guitars / Vocals J.P : Guitars Mikael Stokdal : Keyboards / Piano / Vocals Rudi Jünger : Drums / Percussion Additional Musicians: Torp : Bass Knud Kleppe : Bass 1999 Napalm Records
