1. Exordium 2. Plagued Be Thy Angel Wings cut until perfection, her shadow turns darker than night As light is cursed from her bleeding womb And her sanity banned Shimmering blisters, lost Eden burned to ice All fiends and beasts adored Pointed daggers shaped her withered flesh And betrays once more... A father who ravaged, with the son of a whore, mating with a spurious ghost... Cherished, nursed and defiled, faded forms feathers fell Stalking the nightshade earth as undead Fate was stronger than her dreams of death Pinned to the ebony surface, impaled through her wrists Luring through utter darkness, wearing thorns in bloodied crowns >From divine to deviant, she split her pleasures into trinity A father who ravaged, with the son of a whore, mating with a spurious ghost... "Alone she will break and alone she will bend When all light has fled, when all hope and love is dead An outcast from heavens grace, banished and exiled Oh, benignant Divine - plagued be thy angel..." As darkness embraced her, and gained her delights Bestowing sacred gifts As bitter bounds of flesh arose, extending her sacrifice Oh ,let pain be thy pleasure, and pleasure be thy pain Never to abide, nor serve the divine A form shunned for eternity A father who ravaged, with the son of a whore, mating with a spurious ghost... "Alone she will break and alone she will bend When all light has fled, when all hope and love is dead An outcast from heavens grace, banished and exiled Oh, benignant Divine - plagued be thy angel..." ...A creature dismayed, black bloodied and plagued >From oblivious nightmares she crawled towards the dawn... Cherished, nursed and defiled, faded forms feathers fell Stalking the nightshade earth as undead Fate was stronger than her dreams of death Pinned to the ebony surface, impaled through her wrists Luring through utter darkness, wearing thorns in bloodied crowns >From divine to deviant, she split her pleasures into trinity A father who ravaged, with the son of a whore, mating with a spurious ghost "Alone she will break and alone she will bend When all light has fled, when all hope and love is dead An outcast from heavens grace, banished and exiled Oh, benignant Divine - plagued be thy angel..." 3. Destination Supremacy Shadows, forthcoming darkness Take me as I am... Dead but believing, never deceiving The perpetual wounds of faith Surrounded by falling angels That departed heavenly grace Destination supremacy Dreaming as we burn... "I watch with eyes repellent, down on purest ones Descending from my haunted keep, gazing in disgust Darkness guides me, I am eternal, advancing towards death Filled with wrath, opposing shallow light...I am the night..." Shadows, my true fiends I am now as thee Solid and perpetual Ageless I will be... Surrounded by falling angels That departed heavenly grace Destination supremacy Dreaming as we burn... "I watch with eyes repellent, down on purest ones Descending from my haunted keep, gazing in disgust Darkness guides me, I am eternal, advancing towards death Filled with wrath, opposing shallow light...I am the night..." 4. Father Of All Lies Welcome to my world below I grant thee pleasures unknown Bestow thy sins, forfeit thy soul Praise me as thou fall... Cast thy self before me Pray on bended knee Be my shadow, serve my ways As given unto thee... Seven sins Seven ways to heed... ...Seven sins Seven ways to heed my destiny... "Behold my visions, remember my past I am the lord of the flies In feeble rapture, weak adore Twelve bastards and a whore So choose your path, left or right I am the father of all lies" As above, so below Another kingdom, another grace I bid thee welcome, to the inverted United in flames Don't fear the reaper, thy only foe And thy key to me... In death thou will find The powers of darkness entwined... "Behold my visions, remember my past I am the lord of the flies In feeble rapture, weak adore Twelve bastards and a whore So choose your path, left or right I am the father of all lies" Welcome to my world below I grant thee sights unseen Bestow thy sins, forfeit thy soul Praise me in thy fall... Cast thy self before me Pray on bended knee Be my shadow, serve my ways As given unto thee... Seven sins Seven ways to heed... ...Seven sins Seven ways to heed my destiny... "Behold my visions, remember my past I am the lord of the flies In feeble rapture, weak adore Twelve bastards and a whore So choose your path, left or right I am the father of all lies" 5. The Night Alit Her shadows mourn in moonlight Dark traces for the soul to feed Each wound that transforms her Is mine to conquer and bewitch As storms breathes inside of her Winds of faith heals and grieves This temptress that haunts my desire Turned death endlessly against me I draw the circled pentagram extreme Wishing that death would reanimate That flesh becomes the truth Amongst the stars above her bones Shattered, abused by the night Torched alit by graveyard mists That died together with her sins Shaping her frigid flesh dead and dried... By spells of sacred daughters That departed their misdeeds I crave my nightly courtesan To violate my sense again And as the final sunset As the moon, the stars, the sky... I placed my soul in gratitude To darkness, to the gates of pain... "Behold its glory, the night alit, Our shadows painted, in the light of the moon Our dark secrets, unknown to mankind As I, the breeder, devoured thy mortal soul..." Wings aroused, as moonlit flesh emerged >From wastelands deep down the ground As icons in stone bowed for the animated dead I forced thy entry to the final world "Behold its glory, the night alit, Our shadows painted, in the light of the moon Our dark secrets, unknown to mankind As I, the breeder, devoured thy mortal soul..." My slumbering beauty, possessing nightly grandeur Endless, and forever, I am thine, eternally I was spellbound from eyes of sapphire jewelry And the sins from the depths of thy soul Enchanted by thy darkness My Queen of lust and urge I watched thy shadow, mourning in the dark So cold and dead, so dead and dried Seductress of my dreams, I wither with thee My flesh, my true nocturnal blood... "Behold its glory, the night alit, Our shadows painted, in the light of the moon Our dark secrets, unknown to mankind As I, the breeder, devoured thy mortal soul... 6. Angelic Embraced by the nightmares thou forced me to dwell Caressed by thy horrors which I into fell My darkest angel, my temptress of night Glorificator, of lust and delight I am lost in thy dark desires Thy serpentic Eden of flesh Through splendid creations which thou me into lured I faced the dreams, drunken from thy wine "As moonlit silver whispered through mysteries eyes And ravens seeded sorrowpaths in faded thine Thou hungered for lust and passion dark When sin stroke thy hands into bloodied mine" Call out and I will follow The dark paths that thou cast before me I will treasure them as night treasures shadows And flee the light above Sorrows that we burnt together Memories that faded away The tears that we dreamt forever Will eternally greet us our death As night spreads its wings in silence And all that remain is pure We gather our screaming horrors In awe to our precious sins 7. For The Ones Who Sleep 8. Skändat Sinne I de djupaste av skogar, I ett mörker svart som hat. Pl en plats där ondska frodas, Där sökte jag mitt svar. Iakttagen av de döda, Letar jag mig fram. Till porten som för evigt öppnats, Den port som bär mitt namn... I den pakt som jag nu svurit har, Jag pl mina frlgor funnit ett svar. Utvald av ödets makter, Förfördes jag av mörkrets krafter. För evigt brinna för att allting fl, För evigt ensam kommer jag att stl, För evigt brinna för att allting fl, För evigt försvinna för att allting förstl... "I de djupaste av skogar, I ett mörker svart som hat. Pl en plats där ondska frodas, Där har jag funnit svar... ...Och aldrig mer kan jag lter färdas, Till okunskapens tid. Ty den kunskap som jag nu besitter, Ger mig aldrig frid." Märkt av döden vandrar jag, Likt en skugga in i de dödas dal. Där döda ögon mig bevakar, Och döda själar aldrig mer vaknar. För evigt brinna för att allting fl, För evigt ensam kommer jag att stl, För evigt brinna för att allting fl, För evigt försvinna för att allting förstl... "I de djupaste av skogar, I ett mörker svart som hat. Pl en plats där ondska frodas, Där har jag funnit svar... ...Och aldrig mer kan jag lter färdas, Till okunskapens tid. Ty den kunskap som jag nu besitter, Ger mig aldrig frid." 9. The Roses Bleed At Night 10. As Black As A Midnight Heart Wings of angels, shaded the sky And stained the sunset with ebony stars Sorrow met madness, and daggers consumed Ashes of beauty, forlorn and defiled Behowling the purity of death The vicious temptress divine "...Forever have I searched for thee, my nocturnal bride Through centuries I have waited, but now thou art mine I know that nothing is forever, and that dawn will do us apart I shed no tears or sorrow, I have kept thy midnight heart..." Passion and paleness, oaths of past Pleasures of urging pain and fear Shrouded darkness, the wicked enthrones The priestess of timeless lust arose Laid to rest, but slumbers not Deceived by her fearless dreams I buried thee My mistress nocturne I drank thy bitter wine, And tasted thy world bizarre Thee brought me madness, That I am sure But sands of time came closer, Farewell my bride, farewell... "...Forever have I searched for thee, my nocturnal bride Through centuries I have waited, but now thou art mine I know that nothing is forever, and that dawn will do us apart I shed no tears or sorrow, I have kept thy midnight heart..." Pale as moonlight are the lilies on thy grave, Never fading, just like thee... Thou art with me, we share the same dream, Thy blackened treasure, now belongs to me... "...Forever have I searched for thee, my nocturnal bride Through centuries I have waited, but now thou art mine (Even though) I know that nothing is forever, and that dawn will do us apart I shed no tears or sorrow, I have kept thy midnight heart..." 11. Her Shadows Adored 12. Deliverance [Jawbreaker; Bonustrack limited edition] Silently fading into the unknown Waiting for darkness to take my soul home This life gave me nothing but a name for my grave A long wish to die, and escape from the pain The righteous may bless the old and the young But I was not blessed by anyone And now when it's over, it wont take long Until I descend, until I am gone...
