Vassafor - To The Death lyrics



Tracks



01. To The Death

Tainted banners. How are we to find the strength to bear another day?
When moonlight echoes (on) what the crows have rejected
How do my eyes look when the others have faded away?

Black pits, never to reflect the light again
Bleached are the bones as I wait amongst the flames

What were we screaming was it a name?

Glory bound, what mortal could slay?
Irrevocable trust - currents drown the sun rays

Seize the day. Hold the banner. Show them the way

Drum is still pounding long into the night?pounding into my skull
Stream of visions?undoing what I've done. That night I did meet a lion, deep beneath the caves of Eremite.
Where the Priestess works her fire - fist defiantly in the flames
There are few men left worthy of their names

Oh Priestess guide us

This life has been a life for raving - a life for grief - a life alone
When passion sinks oceans, passion seeks fire
Revealing the ivory bones

Fire We are charging
Bones The martyrs bones we feed to our dogs
We know that you lied
Craving for what was never there
?We know that you lied
Tear them, beat them, burn them crush them
Liar Drag them screaming by the hair
?You never broke us inside

Seeing visions hearing voices, what did you awaken?
And now that I recite the words you leave me here forsaken.
Show me father, show me now, the darkest space between the stars
I await amongst the flames

Bound in glories echoes
As the wind whispers your name

This has been a life for raving a life for grief - a life alone
When passion sinks the ocean round the stone & fire reveals the gleaming ivory bones.

Cleansed in ritual, cleansed in pride.
My Lord you lied, you lied
This war has awoken something deep inside

We know that you lied?but still we bled and died
We did it for loyalty - we did it for pride
We know that you lied?But you never broke us inside

A warrior stirs his fire - shadows shift pity cannot exist
There are few left worthy of their names?few left

Are we hearing voices? What did we awaken?

Tore them, beat them, burned them crushed them
Dragged them screaming
To the Death

Survivor hold your fist into the flame
Have you lived a life worthy of a name

She carves the mark into his flesh - his brother bears the same
Needles of ink scrape his spine
?Mark me To the Death
?To the Death
I have given my blood
I know what awaits me?.
?To the Death

02. Egregore Rising

I am not of these times, nor of this world
I am from some other Aethyr, brought unto here
I am from the same Carbon, as the MORNING STAR
A soldier in the war, of the Darkness against Light

I am not afraid to lose everything, including life
on the contrary, I relish it?.

Our coat of arms reads
"My Honour is my Loyalty"

To the ideals, to the dreams
To the past glory of the night
To the ghosts of lost friends
To the golden shadows, still stirring in the darkness

To what we've birthed
To what we've built
manifestation of collective will

The Egregore?.Rises

The longing for a Golden Age
Where Heroes still walked amongst us
When the Dark Ones were still speaking to us

For I am among those to have spoken with the Gods?

We share these ideals
Towards a common vision
and our collective energy and dedication
fed the Egregore?.

Rising
Rising

Ever building
Ever strengthening
Charge the altar
Blood for the Blood Gods

Egregore Rising

To what we've birthed
To what we've built
The Egregore Rises

Antichrist, illuminate the shadows
Antichrist, your time is at hand?.

03. Eyrie

From atop the mountain peaks
The rivers twist and turn far below
As a sparkling string thru patchwork fields
Toiling vassals, imperceptible to view
Except to that of the Eagle
Eyeing the prey

I am (the) Blood Eagle
The Beast astray
Enigmatic hater of humans
Rending your worthless flesh in my talons
Your cooling blood pools around me

Under the light of the full moon
Paint the silver, red
Blood for the Dark Gods, Accept this gift
Feed the Void?

Who revels in the night?
Dead eyes gaze from the ruins
Drifting mists
Atop the Eyrie

Reaving til the final breath
Dance the violent dervish of madness
To fuel the twists and turns in the labyrinth of chaos
Evoke the revelations for Satan's Glory!!

Cut out the little hearts, culled for His tribute
Blood for the Dark Gods, Accept this gift
A pyramid of infants skulls, It is I that offers You glory
Unbless til revelation
Oh Shining One!

By the silver light of the Morning Star
Your Son returns tonight?.to the Eyrie

Who revels in the night?
Reaper of the living
Conduit of Darkness
Pathway to beyond

Ascension is near?
I can almost see??
The Infernal Plane?

Spectres in the fog
Dismal robed sentinels
Invisible voices, chanting

Take off your mask?.
And bow before the Dark Gods

Entrance is not for everyone?For beasts only!
To Kill the man inside?and be No One?.

[Instrumental]

05. The Burning Ìthyr

Out of the Chaos, the Abyss yawned
Cosmic Vomit, reversed entropy

Erebus and Nyx coalesce
before the creation of time

The quantum filament of the virgin cosmos

Formless, Brooding, Latent, Eternal
The First Order

Vibrational Curse, Ripples oscillate
Await the judgement, terminal vicissitude

Acolyte of the Forgotten Church of Eternal Turmoil
Praise His name, at the altar of infant sacrifice
Activate. Blood fill the channel cut into the stone
Charge the sigil with this offering

At the apex of the crumbling ziggurat
(The) shining ladder appears once more
What lies in the ether?
Between us and that Burning Æthyr

Re-born into struggle
Leave these 3 dimensions
Forgo the sphere, to the Burning Æthyr
(The) Watchers above
Suspended in eternity
Where time can not exist

Soul dissolving at the edge of eternity
Corrosive as acid burning through flesh
Melted away like mist before the sun
All that is left is the shadow self of unbeing

Where the Black Stars rise
Forever this will happen again

Time is a flat circle. Nothing is false, all is permitted

Algol radiant in the alternate plane
Nova in another
Burning in another
Dead in another
Again and again, for never, for ever

The keys for the gateway
To the Realm of Satan
Are already putrescent seeds within you?.

For ever. For never. Amen

06. Emanation From The Abyss

At the height of the eighth star I travel
To the gateway between
Through the gateway of Ain
Seeking the tree of reversal
The anti of being being I suffer
As down to its roots I came
Where false light never venture
And true reversal is obtained

Rend the veil of the abyss
To explore manifestations of Satan
From the roots we travel
Through spheres and tunnels eternal
True knowledge and sacred passages open to us
The eighth and the Tepht
Daath in its primal form

In the night of true death
total dissolution of the ego
before the void of the abyss

For human thought was a conceptualising of the energies from the opening of Daath
As a crack in space through which forces of non-being seeped and in the process
Became conceptual thought. Thus the ego flowered and its root was in the abyss...

Rend the veil of the abyss
To explore manifestations of Satan
From the roots we travel
Through spheres and tunnels eternal
True knowledge and sacred passages open to us
The eighth and the Tepht

Daath in its primal form

07. Singularity

As fire chase the shades away
From the depths of the cosmic cavern
Your gaze and soul now lit up to know
The mystery of holy murder

His eyes transfixed upon the secret sun
Seated beyond the turning world
Brandishing dagger to cut the throat
Of the stumbling constellation

Blood-stained ecstasy of apocalypse
Lightning blasts the wheel of endless rebirth
War-god swept in astral destruction
Set aflame these shadowed worlds

Imperial wreath of nuclear radiance
Seven asp-faced virgins sing his praise
Conqueror of the seven heavens
Exalted beyond the seven gates

Disembowelment of stellar powers
Skinned to sew his royal cloak
Tearing chains and flesh asunder
Crushing enslavers under foot

Fire-walker, Fire-breather
Fire-whirler, Fire-sower
Fire-feeler, Fire-delighter
Fire-driver, Light-forcer
Thunder-shaker, Star-tamer
Light-giver, Star-slayer

Aion! Iao!
Unveil your most terrifying face
Phanes! Helios!
Set the soul of the world ablaze

Lion-headed God of infinity
Drown the thought of man in your luminous mind
All-Devourer and All-Begetter

Victorious Mystery of Slaughter Divine
Star Slayer?.

Fromever, Forever, Amen
