1. Preludium (Intro) [Music: N. Rudolfsson] 2. Temple Of Skin [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: Whiplasher Europa] It's a cold claw that grasps your sanguine little heart Clenches and drenches your lounges with blood It's a cold skull that holds your fragile little mind Soon crushed by the force that's moving up from behind We are all sacrificed When death drapes the altar Soul putrification Suffer the manifestation!! Temple of Skin Feel how rusty blades cut within Temple of man Torn to bits by death's hand I will praise the grace of decay The grand celebration of the wicked I will haunt the Empyrean plains Grind pure plagues to perfection It's a trembling hand that holds time's dusty scepter Dictating a code that suffers the law of the grave It's an infected blade that cut your heart in two The temple of skin is left dead to dream of you. We are all sacrificed When death drapes the altar Soul putrification Suffer the manifestation!! Temple of Skin Feel how rusty blades cut within Temple of man Torn to bits by death's hand Slaves of death yet masters of life Children of darkness but tyrants for light we are the unspoken name, the untrodden path a union benighted by left hand wrath 3. Beyond Life [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: N. Rudolfsson] Thick haze in the light of lava fire The forces are gathered for a feast Secrets in the green mist are revealed Dark landscapes take form in the horizon Flesh in lust below six eyes Nocturnal sins hidden deep within A conspiracy beyond life In ecstasy it brings the dead alive .The dead alive Beyond life Rites of magic potion in the blood Venom of darkness in my veins In chambers of the citadel of metal Escape to forests of the dark Tasting the breath from the pyre Lust on black ground. .The dead alive Beyond life 4. On Chariots To Hades [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: N. Rudolfsson] Within the realms of darkness the thunder roars Dark magick echoes in the temple halls The witch of purple fire sings the tunes of doom The wizard of the dead rose valley prays in the gloom Together they summon the force of the mist Within the surrounding cold dead forest "Will it be a night when the chariots come again? To bring the witch to Hades where the king of no life are waiting" Inhaling the mist Feel the supreme force of eternity Laughter of sin Walk on the clouds of winter darkness Upon the thrones of the temple they chanting the words That no tongues can speak and no ears hear The mist is fading and there's no time to call it back Watching the crystal ball where the catastrophes appear Together they summon the force of lust Within the temple of skin and sin "Will it be a night when the chariots come again? To bring the witch to Hades where the king of no life are waiting" They cursed the numbered demons with wings. To let the eyes on the black wall watch again The chariots arrive again 5. Dawn Of The Lava Aeon [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: N. Rudolfsson] Three shadows on the sea of glass Standing by the palace of dead trees No thoughts of what the nocturnal will bring And what the future of life will sing Dawn of the lava aeon The dark green purple season Deep in the woods of memories Where the beast ones lived and ruled Forbidden temptation now prevails A first step into the unknown. Dawn of the lava aeon The dark green purple season 6. One Road To Megiddo [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: Whiplasher Europa] The paths lie empty so silent so young The Pleiades lick the roads with a silvery tongue The distance shrieks and icons crack Never was forever but now that time is back .When death rolls upon the table of the gods! Breathe in damnation Equilibrium falls for my temptation Utopia decays Demons and angels stand face to face One road to Megiddo Chaos cries and cherubs die for the lord of flies One road to Megiddo Spit on time's hand; bite the lands with the fire's fangs Megiddo Breakdown Morning comes as death Hovering upon the Westside path The altar is crushed And so heaven was blood and blood was rust And the fields crawl in ashes And shields break for the whiplashes And the juxtaposed worlds collide It's like dagger in the head of a child Breathe in damnation Equilibrium falls for my temptation Utopia decays Demons and angels stand face to face One road to Megiddo Chaos cries and cherubs die for the lord of flies One road to Megiddo Spit on time's hand; bite the lands with the fire's fangs Megiddo Breakdown 7. Bells Of Death [instrumental] [Music: N. Rudolfsson] 8. Funeral Caravan [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: N. Rudolfsson] Black clothes are on and my life is gone Coffin carried by pale faced ghosts Silhouettes in the mist slowly moves On paths of frost to the emperor of doom Behold the death Creatures of the dead show me the way Guide me to the land of darkness, death and doom Funeral Caravan A journey to the emperor Of doom I feel the breeze of the gates of death The jaws of Hades howl Choirs of doom chants the words of darkness I now behold the triumphant realm Behold the death Creatures of the dead take my soul I am one with the land of darkness, death and doom Funeral Caravan A journey to the emperor Of doom Funeral Caravan A journey to the emperor Of doom 9. Fields Of No Life [Music: E. Karlsson / N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: E. Karlsson] Enter the fields, the fields of no life Feel the emptiness Watch time as it pass you by Can you see the things you longed for Can you see the black wall What's behind - You can see in your mind Enter the hills, the hills of no life Feel the emptiness - Feel the grief Where is all that you desire Can you see the black warrior What will you choose Run and die or stay and get killed Call out to eternal darkness - Darkness of life Enter the woods, the woods of no life Feel the emptiness Listen to the silence Shadows speak to you Do you see the black mirror Is there any reflections Look down, deep down in your soul A soul you don't know Call out to eternal darkness - Darkness of life 10. Memorandum Melancholia [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: N. Rudolfsson] Abandoned souls dwell beyond the membrane of life While the race goes on in false joy and heavenly lies Hiding from the world of light Every dawn could be the last rite Shadows of darkness surround them They have chosen the paths of obscurity Solitude empress their world of dusk Vague recollection is the only that remains of the living. Don't disturb the melancholic souls Sometimes they unfortunately cross the path of the rats And observes a abhorrent way of wasting their pathetic lives Spit at the world of light Every dawn could be a release Shadows of darkness surround them They have chosen the paths of obscurity Solitude empress their world of dusk Vague recollection is the only that remains of the living. Don't disturb the melancholic souls 11. The Secret Alliance [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: N. Rudolfsson] Paralysed by the druids magick Soul on fire within frozen flesh Captured in a statue of stone But I feel the force I'm not alone Like gods above the earth Consuming the visions of the living Watching the weak souls, They are not one with the secret alliance Metallic screams echoes in the mountains To the sound of war and thunder We slowly move over fields of death Like giants in endless snow Enter the realm beyond the mountains A haven for the ones who seen the truth Carefully the rites can begin While cold winds tries to haunt within The freezing enemies can't disturb Nor the whispering slaves of god Ear of the surrounding tries to understand But the secret alliance rules again 12. Requiem Of The Apocalypse [Music: N. Rudolfsson] [Lyrics: N. Rudolfsson] Every dawn fades in misery and solitude Weak flames on fragile candles fighting with the winds The dead speaks with serpent tongues cold as ice No sleep for the one who fall into the abyss, of desolation Nocturnal requiem keeps the blood warm The eyes of fire feed a dying soul There is something unknown that soon shall appear Time shall tell when blood dries Requiem of the apocalypse A new aeon will rise When ancient time dies Remains of the past withered plains Can't be repaired by any gods or magic Soul suffocation can't be the end Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law Nocturnal requiem keeps the blood warm The mirrors of desire feed a dying soul There is something unknown that soon shall appear Time shall tell when blood will unite Requiem of the apocalypse A new aeon will rise When ancient time dies 13.
