Sorrow
(instrumental)
Kiss The Cross
In the age of the Christ
We must learn to fight
In the nema of the Lord
Nail them high for the cause
You pay all your sins
In exchange you feed your needs
Saved by your Christianity
Sacred is your reality
Praise your Lord
And place all your trust
He decides who lives or die
Kiss the cross, you'll forget your sins
Make the sign of the cross
It helps you through at any cost
You visit the church
A holy place of sanctuary
Praise your Lord
And place all your trust
He decides who lives or die
Kiss the cross, you'll forget your sins
(Requiem)
Kiss that cross and all would be forgiven
Kiss that crucifix, pray for forgiveness
When the priest reads you the last rites
All is just a strange illusion
One With Darkness
Born in Darkness
With a Blasphemy soul
My body is posessed
Ancient Godz brings my death
Through the fire and ice I walk
To the land beyond your dreams
Lead me to the realm of Holyness
Then I will turn all into black
Dark endless land has now become mine
I find in myself, Grotesque life
One with the Dark, alone and cold
The Holy cross towards to Hell
Pray to Thy whom has failed
Mighty Contact to the Dark One
Holocaust, Death is on our names
Resentment in my life
I'm falling once again Down there
One with darkness
I'm one with the Dark
One with darkness
I'm one with the Dark
Winds Of Sacrifice
Samples: WAV - MP3 - ZIPped WAV
Winds of sorrow are blowing hard
On the sea a Dragon is raising
Through the fire rites are calling
A human sacrifice, nine will die
Sacrfice to the thunder God
Hammers raise up in the air
Demonic warrior rides through the fire
Now it's time to sacrifice
Winds of sacrifice, our time has come
Winds of battle, the magic calls
Burn The Witch
Samples: WAV - MP3 - ZIPped WAV
(instrumental)
Hymn Of Lunacy
At the end of the night
In the chapel of marbled's swans
Farewel of the eyes, signs of medieval times
As I plounge in the glacial lack
Thou art fall under my mark
Earth crack down in abyssic direction
Freezing as a winter gleams of tears
Crack the silence's symphonies
Sign the hymn of lunacy
In the darkest depths
Have you seen the red light
Will I meet thy fate
The one who takes my hand
Thine own son
Twin forever, Forefather
At the end of the night
In the chapel of marbled's swans
Farewel of the eyes, signs of medieval times
As I plounge in the glacial lack
Sign the hymn of lunacy
Ashes Of The Witch
Samples: WAV - MP3 - ZIPped WAV
Captured by
The grace of the witch
Rost in flames
Condemn to burn
Brought to the stake
It's what you deserve
Fly up on the sky
Let the wind carry on your vital remains
Etenity awaits
Beyond the realms of Heaven
In oblivion your soul
On Earth it will fall
Despise the church
Condemned to burn
Brought to the stake
Burn the Witch
Fly up on the sky
Let the wind carry on your vital remains
Etenity awaits
Beyond the realms of Heaven
In oblivion your soul
On Earth it will fall
Dancing Souls
Forgotten lost souls
Dancing in the night
Vanishing into the dark
Dancing at the graves
Disappear into eternity
Dancing souls fade away
Wailing at the graves
Dancing the dance of the dead
Stars shining bright
Into the mist of the night
Souls are dancing
Until they disappear
Dancing souls
You can't see them
But they are behind you
Dancing in the dark
In the mist of the night
Dancing souls
Forgotten lost souls
Dancing in the night
Vanishing into the dark
Dancing at the graves
Adagio 1809
(instrumental)
Reminiscences Of The Mourner
I read the holy Epitath
On your grave stone
Down on my knees, I say a pray
As the rains falls down on me
Tears of blood begin to flow
Your remains for ever I will mourn
Life awaits beyond the stars
In oblivion on Earth we fall
For peace in Heaven we yearn
Or in flames we all shall burn
Thousand years of sadness
Envelop my soul
Eternal seems the pain, it crosses my path of life
As I gaze towards the horizon
Into another mirage I fall
I hear Death's voice calling
Through the shadows I walk
Behold, great Lord
Should I go on
Tell me, great Lord
Or should I just end all this
Tristitia, Tristitia
Endless grief, endless grief
Thinking of all those years
Have drained off all my tears
Eternal seems the pain, it crosses my path of life
As I gaze towards the horizon
Into another mirage I fall
I hear Death's voice calling
Through the shadows I walk
Behold, great Lord
Should I go on
Tell me, great Lord
Or should I just end all this
Tristitia, Tristitia
Endless grief, endless grief
Dance Of The Selenites
Selenites are dancing
In the breeze
Vaporous in their silent lair
A swarm who twist'n'twirls
Languishly looking at us
In the middle of nowhere
Pale are the figures who dance
In the moonlight, now
Dance on the moon
Enter the rings
Newly freed souls
Newly freed bird
Gracious and humming
Some atonic verse
Invisible in their flight
Etherial Noctua
Leening your wings
Of dust, of muck, of mundane dirt
Eternal Chaunts
Benevolence
The Selenites
Smile and gaze
At those we are
At those we were
Spinning round
In their haze
