Firestorm Apocalypse - The Coming of a Greater Era
The Gates of Hell
(LYRICS: MARCHOSIAS)
Shadows of the past fade before my eyes, there are evil voices in the air
I sense a presence in the darkness around, pervading every sound and every shadow
The moon is full; the horned messenger that has guarded this world for aeons
Yet now only beckons to those who still bear strength in their hearts
The strength to fight, conquer and kill the ones that have raped this earth
For so many years
I am drawn towards the woods again, where trees whisper of a storm to be awoken
Of powers that were asleep for many years and a glorious past that was forgotten
It is true that many of us had grown ignorant and weak
Whilst the world around was slowly declining
Fools! Unaware of the infernal wrath that waits to be unleashed upon them
They fell to the liars' words and bowed before the cross of the dead one
With my every thought the dark enhances thousandfold
When suddenly I emerge from the shadows into a clearing
A gruesome silence in the light of the moon, the ground breaths pure evil
I know I have reached my destiny in this world
Four others I distinguish, grim and pale faces with empty eyes
Now the pentagram is whole, words are spoken and steal gleams in the dark
The roar of a thousand storms approaches
The earth trembles and the moon turns bloodred
As we cut our flesh in honour of our forgotten Lord's return
Demons start emerging from the abyss, the legions of hell are set free at last
As a vast black shadow leaves the gates now opened wide
Our mortal bodies lie scattered and dead
But we shall be reborn in His fire and our deaths will not have been in vain
For our sacrifice will wrap this world in endless darkness
And tomorrow shall know the blackest dawn
For we have opened the gates of hell, this will be the final holocaust of the human race
Degeneration of Mankind
(LYRICS: NIMROTH)
I have been wandering the ages
Felt the pain, injecting my heart with misery
For we are particles of matter throughout the centuries
Evolving to each others agony
The evolution of the human mind
Causes the degeneration of mankind
I want to float among the stars
Between a composition of light and darkness
Gifted with powers of future times to come
Released from a race, which drowns in vain
For my transmission to the stars
I’ve been travelling the desert of my mind
With eyes frozen by the Eastern wind
Forever gazing into the Stratosphere
Surrounded by imperceptible phantoms
Astral guardians, which never last
Experiencing the transmission to the macro cosmos
Into a world where my spirit flies free
Make me rise like a Phoenix again
Guide me through the halls of eternity
Arcane Illusion
(LYRICS: NIMROTH)
On the wings of imperceptible creatures
I’m dwelling through a myriad of stars
Innumerable dreams are weaved as one
No destination, an arcane illusion
With a super natural elegance
Oscillating through future times to come
Hold in the horrible jaws of deformity
All I see, goes beyond my receptivity
Heavens are swallowed by the darkness of night
An other world now opens wide
Is this real, an arcane illusion
A dim fantasy which leads to confusion
Synthetic illusions of dimensions unknown
Gaze in a cosmic world which has never shown
It’s all-embracing maze of evolution
Abducting the human comprehension
Heavens are swallowed by the darkness of night
An other world now opens wide
Is this real, an arcane illusion
A dim fantasy which leads to confusion
I’ve seen the future and the past
The withering beauty for those who last
Remaining silent in perished oblivion
A phantom-view, illusion or just a horrible conclusion
Prelude to the Final Holocaust
(INSTRUMENTAL - COMPOSED BY ATOMTRAKT)
Fields of Eternal Glory
(LYRICS: MARCHOSIAS)
Through clouds of fog and ice we are gathered under a dark starry sky
Our pagan fires are burning in the night
Flames rise high up to the sky; unholy omen of hell
Riding with the winds we have come with the strength of one thousand swords
The old man mutters words of hatred and grief
His face scarred by traitor’s hands, eyes gazing into nothingness
Shadow of a once mighty warrior
Anxiously clenching the hilt of a rusty sword
Now the time of repent is close at hand
The ground will start to open
And hellfire, bright and perilous, seething messenger of death and pain
Will fulfill its destiny destructively
For the day is not far when we will kill their sons and rape their daughters
We will burn and plunder their villages
Culminating in the destruction of their cursed churches
Symbols of oppression and humiliation
The glowing ashes of which they will behold before we finally cut their throats
Smoke will rise from the ground
The triumphant roar of our horde
Condemned and mocked for so many years
Will fill the air with a victorious rage
Ride along my faithful comrades
And feast upon their rotting corpses
And curse their poisonous blood for eternity
For our race has sworn an oath to earth and elements
The sermons of liars we despise, the prayers of weaklings we hate
Their bodies will rot on the soil they so eagerly tried to flee
Eyes picked by the ravens, their souls will wander the battlefield evermore
The fields of retaliation where the christian race will meet its final doom
No mercy for the weak, by wolves’ teeth the sheep will be slain
Perishing Nights
(LYRICS: ASTAROTH DAEMONUM)
As the wolves howl
And the moon penetrates the driving clouds
When the trees cradle above a murmerous cascade
Your stature approaches closer and closer
An Osculum Infame
Your scent is still present
In this place so dark, so pure
At a bed of leaves I still see your shadow
In the sinister shade of a horned moon
Ishtar, my witch, my burning Goddess
Every woman bears your make in her soul
As the rustle of leaves and the rustle of flames
Inflame your transistory (yet eternal) existence
I embrace your light
It shines through the leaves of trees so old
As the beckoning of bells in the freezing night
Makes us forget about the cold
As the wolves howl
And the moon penetrates the driving clouds
When the trees cradle above a murmerous cascade
Your stature disappears slowly and grave
An Osculum Infame
Eternal Damnation
(LYRICS: LORD MYSTIC)
Listening to the wolves in this cold winter night,
This night we start our battle with pride
Their time has come…
Return to where you are from
Them, the ones we despise,
Will soon be at their end
They will suffer for their own (believed) lies,
For all eternity they are damned
Eternal Damnation
Filled with a sense of hate we burn and kill
Driven by our might we fight
Their destruction is what we must fulfill
Power given to us by the moon in the midst of night
We will accomplish our desire
We fight with sword and fire
Eternal Damnation
Infernal Devastation
We will destroy them by fire
It is the will of him, they serve
The ones we were always told to admire,
Being burnt is what they deserve
The battle will last long, they will be strong
But we will fight for our victory, forever will be
One by one we will watch them die,
For the life they live for a lie
We will accomplish our desire
The time has come for him… the liar
Eternal Damnation
Holy Termination
Firestorm Apocalypse - The Coming of a Greater Era
(LYRICS: MARCHOSIAS)
We stand at the dawn of the battle of ages
And proudly raise our heads towards an endless bloodred sky
Our heathen hearts are filled with melancholy and hate
For on this day the cursed ones will finally prevail
Fire in the sky – humanity will die
Cosmic winds of hate – sealing mankind’s fate
The feeble race stands frozen – realising they’re not chosen
Their dreams will end in pain – through universal bane
A ferocious yet majestic storm slowly rages on
Consuming the pathetic mortals’ realm of light
Celestial clouds are spitting astral flames without end
Reducing pitiful christian souls to blackend dust
Not a shadow nor a memory survives in this dimension
And even time itself is doomed to perish in the flames
Behold this day’s grotesque obliteration of mankind
A monumental tribute to the rise of utter darkness
A thousand silent centuries have passed
Still equilibrium is once again regained
Our heathen hearts are filled with melancholy and honour
And as we proudly raise our swords to hail the dark of night
A distant light marks the coming of a greater era…
