Dawn Of Disease
Procession of Ghosts
1. Lapsarian
Fallen from the skies
The spirits will arise
Fallen without a belief
The ghosts have come to relief us all
2. Procession of Ghosts
As the spirits fall from the skies
The congregation proceeds
As the last light dies
We step into the shade of ghosts
Merging with the fallen
Those who find no rest
We hear their whisper calling
Breathe in the night (at last)
Follow us
Into the procession of ghosts
Unite with them
Where the way back to light will be closed
Rising from the skies
The spirits will arise
Revelation of the vagueness
The shade of ghosts embraces us
Merging with the fallen
Those who find no rest
We hear their whisper calling
Breathe in the night at last
Procession of ghosts
Our fate are the lost
Follow us
Into the procession of ghosts
Unite with them
Where the way back to light is now closed
Summon the intangible
Those who find no rest
Unite with the fallen
Become the shade of ghosts
At last
3. May the Waves Take Me
Standing at the seaside
Gazing into the distance
The ocean and me
Have always been connected
Here where I stand
The coast is steep and rugged
I try to remember
What it felt like
To touch the water
For the first time
Just a few steps left for me
To swim into eternity
And part myself
From here
May the waves take me
To a world below
To an ulterior abyss
Where warmth embraces my soul
May the thought break me
The taste still sleeps in there
I feel the ocean reaching out for me
Our fate to share
Although the waters’ cold bites me
I continue my way forth
The tide begins to rise
Water fills my lungs
Eventually we become one
After all these years
Just a few steps left for me
To swim into eternity
I part myself
From time
May the waves take me down
May the thought break me
The taste still sleeps in there
These were the last steps for me
To swim into eternity
Nothing is left
That I would ever miss
4. Shrine
Ancient is the knowledge that they bear
Unbeknownst is the secret that they keep
Invisible revelation of all holiness
Cast thy spell to give them order
Open the shrine
The offering transcends everything
Which thy material creation ever spawned
Temple of the ancient knowledge
Thy secret inconceivable for the ignorant
Open the shrine
The key to your mind
Cast thy spell to give us order!
Open the shrine
Ancient is the knowledge that we bear
Unbeknownst is the secret that we keep
Thy holiness shall revelate itself to us
Our sacrifice materializes thou
5. Where the Clouds Reach the Ground
There exists a place
Forgotten by time
Its echo inexorably grows
In the presence of the silent giants
A clandestine entanglement
Of two worlds
Disparate
Yet equal
There exists a place
That is covered in snow
Eternally yet finite
Impossible for the eyes to see
Numbing all senses
The periphery inclines
To prevail
Over thoughts and words
Where the clouds reach the ground
There is nothing but silence
Where the vastness is profound
Night and day bear eternity
Where the mind reaches the heart
The soul is left in memories
Quiet and shallow lies the mound
Where the clouds reach the ground
No one passes the edges
No one treads
Across the threshold
Of this silent place
Foreseeing the end
On eternal ground
Entangled in a state
Familiar yet unknown
The snow-covered land
That harbours the mound
It leaves no choice
Than to walk this path alone
No one passes the threshold
Of this silent place
There is no more choice
Than to walk this path alone
6. As Heaven Shatters
As heaven shatters
Splinters cover the earth
As the sky scatters
Shards bury the world
Fragments of the universe
Broken lie the stars
Remnants of the pantheon
Illusions into dust
As heaven shatters
The night returns
As the sky scatters
The firmament burns
The darkest visions
Will be exceeded
The prophecy
Will bring unlasting downfall
On the brink of the final eclipse
In a rain of slivers
The end manifests
As cracks across the sky
Wash away the illusions
Shroud all hopes
Cover the earth
And devour the world
The night returns
In a storm of flames
The firmament burns
A downfall of dying planets
On the brink of the final eclipse
In a rain of slivers
The end manifests
As cracks across the sky
On the edge of the final collapse
The world is buried
As heaven shatters
Broken lies the kingdom
Heaven to splinters
Scattered lies the sky
Shards bury the world
As heaven shatters
7. Autumn Days
Do you remember the time
When the sun filled our hearts with brightness?
Now the last embers decline
Leaving us all in a gloomy darkness
Storms and rain have guided us
Far into the unknown
Again the autumn has come to reap
What all of us once have sown
Season of haze
Divide our ways
Autum days bring gloom and sadness
We all have to go
From the rivers of life to the mountains of silence
Once and for all
Autum days bring gloom and darkness
For winter nights to come
When the cold is calling out our names
It's time to come home
The last leaves of hope
Are falling from the trees of bitterness
While the wind’s cold hands
Take our breath away
Heralds of winter
The air is shivering
Swallowing the sun’s last ray
Autumn will lead us astray
Season of haze
Count your last days
Season of gloom
Now we meet our doom
When the cold calls out our names
Calling out our names
Into the dark
Calling out our names
(To light life’s last spark)
Autum days bring gloom and sadness
We all have to go
From the rivers of life to the mountains of silence
Once and for all
Autum days bring gloom and darkness
For winter nights to come
Now that the cold has called out our names
We all will come home
The cold has called out our names
We face the autumn days
8. Apotropaic
Evil are the spirits
That enter in you now
It was long before
The birth of your saviour
When they were created
To bring harm upon mankind
Symbolic actions
Rituals of magic
The curse has been
Set upon you
Protection against the scourge
There is no grace
No shelter in this
Haunted creature
Bid farewell to your faith
While you are taken
By the wraith
Even if you are buried alive
With stones on your chest
The apparition that has entered you
Will never find rest
9. In Death We Blast
In death we blast!
We come from the hill of destiny
We come from the valley of the damned
United we carry the flag
We head towards
The place of eternity
We cross the boundaries
Of each land
Nothing can ever tear us apart
If we just trust the blackness in our heart
We come from where the shadows dwell
Where night prevailed the day
No one needs to guide our way
From heaven down to hell
We are all different
But in spirit we are all the same
It is nothing less than the world
That we claim
Together we walk this trail...
Across all frontiers
The spirit never dies
Our disease is spreading
More than fast
We fight our fears
We fight the lies
United to the last
There is one thing for certain
In death we blast
Watch the dawn
Of this disease
And join
Our unstoppable armies
The time will come
When you see the last sun
May today become this day
That you follow us on our way
This union will last forever
In death we blast together
In death we blast!
10. Hypnosis
I feel a cold distance
That separates me from myself
An indistinct mask
Has been layed upon me
Unable to act
Trapped inside this shell
Locked up in a cage of illusion
The cold and distant hell
Paralyzed
Mesmerized
Again the pendulum
Struck me
Its weight more
Than a single human can ever carry
The slightest noise
Struggles to be perceived
To wake me up
And let me be relieved
Falling down the spiral
I cannot face the day
The night has given
An unfathomable gravity
Entwines me deep inside
Unable to leave this trance
My cataleptic mind
Hypnosis covers me
And leaves me behind
I cannot face the day
Count down from three
Hypnosis covers me
My cataleptic mind
To release me
Entwines me deep inside
Falling down the spiral
In this maze
Paralyzed
And mesmerized
