At The Fathomeless Depths
Music: Nödtveidt/Zwetsloot
Night's Blood
Music: Nödtveidt/Zwetsloot
Lyrics: Nödtveidt
Night haunts and evil lurks in every corner
Like plague it's spreading - I behold
Loneliness, yet with you autumn night as guest
But can you hear my cries?
Permeate me, oh night, as with the forest you did
for heart is cold, cold as ice
I drown in the colour of your eye
for a black heart will only find beauty in darkness
I breathe it's eternity to absorb the sky
where the shadows of death may lie
Chorus:
Feel the call - Nocturnal desire
Sorrow's breath - Enchanting cries
Night's blood - Taste damnation's wine
Feel the pain - Nocturnal desire
The devil's path of dark delight
Night's blood - Pure damnation's wine
Eyes are glowing, burn as hell's fire
Mark thy wisdom in my mind
Those who never was born
but whose darkness eternally
devastated the goodness built up through milleniums
No time passed, our victory is eternal
Our scorn, our silence...
A heart dies drowning in the night's blood
Everlasting malice for the wicked soul
Can't resist the night's sweet blood
Loneliness in the embrace of you autumn night
The night that froze my cries
Deep into the woods glows a fading light
I sold my soul, cold as ice
I drown in the colour of your eye
for a black heart will only find beauty in darkness
I breathe it's eternity to absorb the sky
where the shadows of death may lie
Chorus:
Feel the call - Nocturnal desire
Sorrow's breath - Enchanting cries
Night's blood - Taste damnation's wine
Feel the pain - Nocturnal desire
The devil's path of dark delight
Night's blood - Pure damnation's wine
Unhallowed
Music: Nödtveidt/Norman
Lyrics: Nödtveidt/Särkkä
Pain, plague an pestilence shall sweep through your sight
Grim is the truth that hides behind the fading light
The eyes of the beholder stares empty silent and cold
for the deeds of the dark ones are fearful to behold
Chorus:
With liftened dreadful swords we swear allegiance to our lord
We're the unhallowed usurpers of the throne
Dusk will bring the gathered ones upon the feeble men of god
Superior mighty warriors of pure unhallowed blood
Shoulder to shoulder they reign in the darkest of nights
Together at the edge of time, brought forth to slay the light
Thy majesty - our majesty
Sole superior evil itself
We'll be your instrument
and the blade of their damnation
So futile humas on the knees for the satanized
Burning high at the stakes with the love of christ
Do not rest in peace, may your souls all burn black
Your sons and daughters I will kiss....with a poisoned smile
Sing out the pain of your roots that you cannot deny
and we'll crush your worthless prayers of the weak forgotten
lie
The apocalypse is here, oh fools of the withering sky
Encounter darkness as you fall into the endless fire
The jaws of darkness, open wide, lost souls scream out in vain
All will writhe eternity's perpetual infernal pain
Chorus:
With liftened dreadful swords we swear allegiance to our lord
We're the unhallowed usurpers of the throne
Where Dead Angels Lie
Music: Nödtveidt
Lyrics: Nödtveidt
In the dawn an angel was dancing
sorrounded by an aura of light
But in the shadows something was watching
and with patience awaiting the night
Angel whispers: "Mournful night, attractive night,
your dark beauty obsesses me"
An angel bewitched by the shadows
Seduced by the whispering lies
Chorus:
A spell was cast an the sky turned red
The angel's heart froze to ice
The blackness that falls is coming to stay
Under the snow lies angels so cold
Dusk has passed and a cold morning breeze,
is sweeping all over the plain,
On the ground lies an angel with skin so pale,
On her face an image of pain,
Snow is now falling to the frozen ground,
The angel is covered by white,
Frost is spreading across the plain,
to welcome the eternal night.
The dress is white with crystals of ice
and frozen roses so red
Roses of blood from an innocent soul
On the plain lies an angel dead
Chorus:
A spell was cast an the sky turned red
The angel's heart froze to ice
In the gloomy sky black clouds were gathering
The silence was broken by cries
A spell was cast an the sky turned red
The angel's heart froze to ice
In the gloomy sky - The silence where dead angels lie
Touch the snow...Caress the lifeless sculptures
Die!!!
Chorus:
The blackness that falls is coming to stay,
Under the snow lies angels so cold,
Yet with each crystal of frost that is falling,
another story is told,
A spell was cast an the sky turned red,
The angel's heart froze to ice,
In the gloomy sky - The silence where dead angels lie.
Retribution - Storm Of The Light's Bane
Music:Nödtveidt/Zwetsloot
Lyrics: Nödtveidt
Morning oh dreadful dawn, spread your pale dim light
Reign for your last time over lands once so bright
But your energy shall be weak, and soon to die
So die in pain my dear, expire, goodbye...
Ages has past since your eyes enlightened the earth
from a source of light that gave all godness birth
But your energy is weak and soon to die
The ground is sour from the evil that here lie
Chorus:
I have come to challenge your ways
Light's bane - The Last of your days
Oh broken wings - My darkness enslaves
Allow me to erase your feeble race
Morning, so feeble dawn, spread no pale dim light
You've been breeding for your last time, a source without
might
An epitaph oh lost worthlessness - Still echoes your last
cries
The earth is pure of the evil that here thrives
Chorus:
I have come to challenge your ways
Light's bane - The Last of your days
Oh broken wings - My darkness enslaves
Allow me to erase your feeble race
What marks the death of 'god' is the twilight for a dark age
His creation being plagued with the venomous blood of ours
The sky suffocates eclipsed by a black mist of hatred
Where goodness cannot reach the fire burns in dark flames
Chorus:
I have come to challenge your ways
Light's bane - The Last of your days
Oh broken wings - My darkness enslaves
Will you allow me to erase your feeble race?
Thorns Of Crimson Death
Music: Nödtveidt/Norman
Lyrics: Nödtveidt
See the plains lie ghastly silent as being frozen in time
A place of distress where evil still lies vigilant enshrined
Years that passed are now centuries and forgotten seem the
fallen ones
But on lived the memories in the spirits of a battle sons
Chorus:
Hear the choirs
Is it the wind that brought back their cries?
Once forged in blood by tragedy
Sharp were the thorns of crimson death
Through the air again our voices whisper
and awake are now your eyes
For too long closed in slumber - but death didn't prove our
demise
By ages so dark we've been sculptured
as fragments of story and tales
As we haunt we are endlessly captured
and shrouded in the wind that here wails
Chorus:
Hear the choirs
Is it the wind that brought back their cries?
Forged in blood by tragedy
Dark were the thorns of crimson death
By ages so dark we've been sculptured
as fragments of story and tales
By the place that we haunt we are captured - Against
eternity we can prevail
Chorus:
Hear the choirs
Is it the wind that brought back their cries?
Forged in blood by tragedy
Dark were the thorns of crimson death
(Backing vocals by Legion)
Soulreaper
Music: Nödtveidt/Norman
Lyrics: Nödtveidt
Wail - oh desolate gale
Bring forth your bitter winds
Wail through heart and through soul
A poisoned kiss so deathly cold
Vanish grief and inner pain
Wail - oh desolate gale
through empires by blackened tears created
On the wings of a wind - The wind of wraith
whose scythe caresses in rage
Wind shall sweep the moonless sky
The reflection of a sulphur fire
Dismal gale - Malicious storm of fate
Brought forth to assail the creation
To bring souls to the wind
beyond the veils of damnation
to the one without face or name
Chorus:
Woeful one of endless sight beyond the veil of time
Of grand darkness you are the keeper
My soul is black and black as night are the ways of thine
Wield the scythe of the Soulreaper
Caressed by the cutting wind
to voyage the oceans of oblivion
Fall into the hands of destiny
for a dawn there no more will be
Wail - oh desolate gale
through empires by blackened tears created
On the wings of a wind - The wind of wraith
whose scythe caresses in rage
Wail - oh desolate gale
Bing upon me bitter winds
and wail through heart, wail so cold
Take my life, reap my soul
Vanish grief and inner pain
Chorus:
Woeful one of endless sight beyond the veil of time
Of grand darkness you are the keeper
My soul is black and black as night are the ways of thine
Wield the scythe of the Soulreaper
Wind shall sweep the moonless sky
The reflection of a sulphur fire
...and the wind swept through the moonless sky
The reflection of a sulphur fire...
