1. Intro
[Instrumental]
2. The Wall Of Phantom
[music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros]
The moon panted above me
Like cadaverous moaning
Wet whips flagllated me
My blood was throbbing maddeningly
Scorn killing clouds
Their faces are fading
Their forever is dying
Behold the head of madness
One eye is open
The other is still asleep
One eye looking at us above
The other in its anxious slumber
The heart beats with the same rhythm
Everything's the same but time
Spring water dreams of the gutter
Among the storms
Among the element's confusion
The eye is opening the wall of phantoms
No passage to get through
The mesmeric s?ance is still going on
I'm closing my tired eyes
3. Under The Sign Of The Morning Star
[music by Oppressor, lyrics by Flauros]
The great world of human inspirations
Was fading away
Springs of creation have all run dry
In silence the beauty's decayed
Whole generations of men have marched
Into the blackened abyss of oblivion
And roamed in the numb nights of chaos
Remaining deaf to their desperate cries
Now I can see you lead the cortege
When the chalice of misery breaks
You cannot cover shameful secrets
Hidden so deep inside of you
They took of the gold crown you wore
With all your weakness brought to the light
The eye which sees all things as they are
Will scorn your pathetic power
Like a snake, you slither
Into the nocturnal sky
Like a snake, you wind
Around like grapevine
Like a snake, you bite
Full of deadly poison
Like a snake, you creep
Spitting venom
4. May He Rot In Hell
[music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros]
Night claws right into your soul's pane
Blackened view is spilled from silver moonlight
As it penetrates your mind and conscience
Stirring mud within you with its raven's beak
Red rust
Skies afire
Dreams of blood and ire
Red rust
Sky's in flames
May he rot in hell
Cold transparent doll comes knocking
Every night at empty window of your room
Let it in and let it lie close to your heart
Keep it warm with fever burning in your chest
You, little offspring; you, little devils
All shall spring to life from underneath my skin
Venomous and erring crossbreed
My thin scar is still aflame, there is no rest
5. Sovereign's Return
[music by Cymeris, lyrics by Flauros]
All things benign have gone
Inviting all sorts of plagues
The lofty shadows of heroes have vanished
Glorious memories swallowed by darkness
No one could bury him
Beneath the ground
In vain they cry: he cried!
He endured in his half rotten grave
Sovereign's return
Those who still throw clods on his coffin
Do not know he is immortal
Ordered to harden in battle or die
He survived the mists of doubts
And the thunder of despair
The bray of his battle horn still carries on
From dark caves he came to the light
Spewing out refreshing flame
His ravenous will of fire remains
And the world will taste it again
6. Man Strikes God Falls
[music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros]
Heavy clouds borne by the wind
Crashing into the cliffs
Rumbling in the blackened forest
Hurling its thunders down canyons
Thunder lights up the twilight of gloom
The tempest it rages in valleys
Twilight's sparkle flickers uncertain
Nighttime mist coils up like smoke
Angels they bind their wings all torn
Then hurl themselves into gorges
Shrouded in their cloaks of clouds
Crying they melt in the fog
The night it spreads thick darkness around
Only the torches now flicker
Whispers splinter the unsteady silence
The chase has begun, the hunt is on
The din of splitting rocks rings so hollow
Waves of air rustle mysteriously
Murmurs and hisses fill up the night
Long drawn out thunder like a battlesign
Ascending onto the trail of stars
To lift the veil clouding our sight
Forget the collar and rise!
Subject to laws he reaches for freedom
Man strikes, god falls
7. Nihil Esse
[music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros]
Look at the eye all swollen with blood
Staining the cheeks with redness
Cutting my head they saw with surprise
A minor god as he fell out
Lost in black
Cocooned in mold I suffocate
The stench of my memories chokes me
Lips indifferent to deadening peace
Oblivion determines rebirth
In my own thoughts
I cannot be safe
My ignorance
Is so unsettling
Someone else knows me
He's watching me now
Funerals march in the streets of grief
Processions lit up by the dead
Their lips are moving but they are mute
Lost in the cries of mourning
Memory breaks the spell of loneliness
Unmoving eye now is drowned
Never expecting reality
Where are you leading me, temple of old
8. Chosen Obituaries
[music by Oppressor, lyrics by Flauros]
Dead souls march through vast lands
Sleepless graves wheeze hollow
Candlestick of a chilly day
Souls hanged high on treetops
Not an inch of living soil
Blackened and unlit
Bloody night, it blinds all
The heavens veiled from the dead
Circling above the clouds
The shadowed eye silenced vain voices
Enclosed you will be in fear
Join me or draw your last breath
With deadly gesture I curse you
I smash your tombstone with iron
Nothingness swallows your soul
Your ashes I scatter with laughter
Their shadows are fragile like straw
So thin they get through a door crack
But they will grow and splinter my thoughts
Rising from the burning ground
9. Parvzya
[music by Oppressor, lyrics by Flauros]
The pain fell asleep at last
Tired of piercing screams
Tears are falling unnoticed
Snakes coiling up in my heart
Suffering never ends
Life's bitterness swells within
Fast transgressions they weigh me down
All turns from bad to worse
The fire is now ablaze
Set by a human hand
Flame everlasting to scorch the womb
My breathing's all heavy with grief
As I look at the world forsaken
Empty sorrow and helpless cries
Long gone days and glorious past
10. Triumph Of Destruction
[music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros]
By a deadly silent night
For my sword I reached
To the monarchs then I said
Who will spill more blood?
My torch awakens the world
Cities collapse in fire
My sketches all done in blood
Death kisses the enemy falling
Screams of annihilation
Lament, chaos and carnage
Red dawn spread like a swarm of locusts
Ranks of death all swollen with corpses
My triumph is now complete
Kneel at my throne of gore
The masterpiece of destruction
Attack, my minions, or perish
