Hooded Menace Lachrymose Monuments of Obscuration 1. Twilight Passages instrumental 2. Pale Masquerade The rites of eternal life Profane, refuse to die A clandestine, sinister daze In the Knights Templar way Punished by the fool Mortals without a clue Burned their eyes, sent straight to hell Left for the crows Rotting through centuries Stone lids removed by ease Beyond logic known to man Now darkness unfolds Written in the dusk Curses, ensanguined vows A rotten gallop, the march of doom Thе dark army grows Through the violet mist Windswept rеmains of time Revenge comes riding high On human blood Sick with undreamt power Uncreation eternalised Soulless, cobwebbed serenades And it always ends in screams The black fortress of sorrows Sad ruins for desires No hiding from the wretched Blind usurpers of life The rites of eternal life Profane, refuse to die A clandestine, sinister haze In the Knights Templar way Sick with undreamt power Uncreation eternalised Soulless, cob-webbed serenades And it always ends in screams Godless, strange practises Encoffined voyage in the deep Dark dimensions behind the veil Of the clandestine dream 3. Portrait Without a Face The portrait without A face hung in darkness and cold Strokes bleeding endless eternal Phantasmal odyssey into the night The depraved forced into submission Sworn to the nightside's odd creations Blood the true consolation Sucked into the realm of sweet damnation Exalted unlife The black wedding of the daughters of dusk The bride of the crimson nightfall Succumbed to the dreams desolate The depraved forced into submission Sworn to the nightside's odd creations Blood the true consolation Sucked into the realm of sweet damnation Your sanctuary has been ravaged Your tranquility disturbed Your shrine is stained and corrupted Gentle death you shall live through me Sundown Night falls with a dagger in hand Moonrise Tides turn with laughter The portrait without A face hung in darkness and cold Strokes bleeding endless eternal Phantasmal odyssey into the night The depraved forced into submission Sworn to the nightside's odd creations Blood the true consolation Sucked into the realm of sweet damnation 4. Daughters of Lingering Pain Atrophy of time In this endless lust The life eternal Enshrouded in dust Cycle unbroken And the nights stay still The fear of gate Of another return A gentle gleam And the scent of rust The scarlet tears Of decay and disgust The veins wide open With the hint of blood Return into dream Of nocturnal demise Nocturnal demise Envy of death It’s fragile serenity Tranquil slumber in the shadows of gods The sea of darkness Embrace of velvet tombs Daughters of lingering pain Dreary conviction Of gore devotee The weight of enthronement Obtruded on me Atrophy of time In this endless lust The life eternal Enshrouded in dust Cycle unbroken And the nights stay still The twilight calls For another return Forever doomed… Envy of death It’s fragile serenity Tranquil slumber in the shadows of gods The sea of darkness Embrace of velvet tombs Daughters of lingering pain 5. Lugubrious Dance Serpentine meanderings Of the chords sacrilegious Otherworldliness In the shreds of reality Where the veils are obscured And shadows drag Can’t recognize The true self of yours In the backwards world From the vanished future The gaze of terror The mask of misery Invert the oceans Where the moonlight slept Float in darkness Into the lifeless blue The endless tongues of decadence Caress these ruins Now abandoned by the world Dreams dancing dead The harvest of delusions Carrion visions, strange lands The crumbling bridge of illusions Passing bells´ disharmony Serpentine meanderings Of the chords sacrilegious Otherworldliness In the shreds of reality Where the veils are obscured And shadows drag Can’t recognize The true self of yours The endless tongues of decadence Caress these ruins Now abandoned by the world Dreams dancing dead A grotesque song of decadence Gnawing your bones Left abandoned by the world In a lugubrious dance 6. Save a Prayer (Duran Duran cover) You saw me standing by the wall Corner of a main street And the lights are flashing on your windowsill All alone ain't much fun, so you're looking for the thrill And you know just what it takes and where to go Don't say a prayer for me now Save it till the morning after No, don't say a prayer for me now Save it till the morning after Feel the breeze deep on the inside Look you down into your well If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire Take a chance like all dreamers, you can't find another way You don't have to dream it all, just live a day Don't say a prayer for me now Save it till the morning after No, don't say a prayer for me now Save it till the morning after Save it till the morning after Save it till the morning after Pretty looking road I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin Don't ask me why, I'll promise, melt the ice And you wanted to dance so I asked you to dance But fear is in your soul Some people call it a one night stand But we can call it paradise Don't say a prayer for me now Save it till the morning after No, don't say a prayer for me now Save it till the morning after Save it till the morning after Save it till the morning after Save it till the morning after Save it till the morning after Save a prayer till the morning after Save a prayer till the morning after Save a prayer till the morning after Save a prayer till the morning after Save a prayer till the morning after Save a prayer till the morning after 7. Into Haunted Oblivion In bloody frames Cuts that reek of the dark Anguish takes form Torn from the shadows Of burial mounds A sickening facade Moulding the ghastly breeze Patterns sewn by murky hands Shape fleshlike structures Invigorate Where blindings swarms Of oblivion arise Splintered are the wails of the dead Like tendons cold The unearthed twines connect Reach out to the debris of denial As I gaze into the shattered mirror Its fragments like cobwebs of ice Stab me with visions disfigured Carry my fate on death-lament winds Spirits cold as desert nights host my journey My twilight requiem through the spider silk gates Surreal tombs in lunar amber swallow me deeper Into the golden mosaic of unfathomed dreams I hear the murmurs of the gods frostfallen Resonate in utter darkness I bathe in the velvet lava from the heavens Watch my body melt into the dusk´s ethereal labyrinths The graves yawn voracious Blind to the sunlight rays Sculpted from the shadows Of a myriad of the doomed The black deluge of gloom Pain scintillates With excretions sublime In brutal disarray Out of the boundaries Of the vermin clasp Pureness regained Tracing the yarn of tears Patterns sewn by murky hands Shape fleshlike structures Invigorate Where gruesome swarms Of redemption arise Splintered are the wails of the dead Like tendons cold The unearthed twines connect Dissolve into haunted oblivion unblessed
