01. False Sleepwalker

Music by Darzamat/Roy Mayorga (intro)
Lyrics by Flauros
Hundreds of nights
Hundreds of days
All mercilessly sad
All marked with pain

In the dark you head towards the crossroads
Where the wind blows without restraint
Cold and soulless like a wax figure
At times rising over the clouds

You won't get here in the daytime,
You won't see anything in the light of day
The gale is flapping its iron wing
Staring inside with its eyes like two abyssal vaults

Hundreds of nights, hundred of days
All mercilessly sad
All cruelly lonely
All pervaded with gloom
All marked with pain

The armoured heart won't break,
It'll just fall into the gulf of feelings
Sleep's hounding you like a pack of wolves
Watching you trapped within the stillness of dead silence

Your legs heavy like black tombs
You've been roaming like that for centuries
Eyes so dark that you need to turn away lest you fall into the void
Murk seeps in every night
Your eyes quietly fading away like the moon over the sea
Their deathly hands upon your brow
The sleepless flock pushing at you
Leering at you

Over at the sky that never dawns
Fall clouds of pallid spectres spellbinding shadows bleak
Eyes so dark that you need to turn away lest you fall into the void
Murk seeps in every night, of blackness made

02. Vote For Heresy

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
The world is turning to ashes when faith triumphs
The faith of those convinced they believe in nothing
You conceal your dark soul and your filthy thoughts
That spectre of naivety that burns in your eyes

I've ceased to believe in false miracles
Vote for heresy
In flames I'm descending into the shades of death
Vote for heresy
I'm spreading the wings of my wicked plan
Vote for heresy
Hidden from the human sight in a cloud of black mist
Vote for heresy

They want to shroud your mind with the veil of their black wings
The age of magic when you struggle
With the waves of darkness
Enfolds you with a haze of sin
The moaning of the condemned reverberates within you

You abandon those silver shrines
They want to shroud your mind with the veil of their black wings
In the grip of death you renounced your god

I've ceased to believe in false miracles
Vote for heresy
In flames I'm descending into the shades of death
Vote for heresy
I'm spreading the wings of my wicked plan
Vote for heresy
Hidden from the human sight in a cloud of black mist
Vote for heresy

03. I Devium

Music by Darzamat
[instrumental]

04. Pain Collector

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
Tears flow all night long
The sombre mourners carry a soulless flame
The corridors vibrate with a sinister melody
Reverberating with a sepulchral echo
Broken heart intoxicated with agony
Pierced with a black lightening
The sobbing of ominous songs
Accompanied by a cold bell tolling

Broken heart intoxicated with agony
Pierced with a black lightening
The sobbing of ominous songs
Accompanied by a cold bell tolling

The Pain Collector
He gained the gift of suffering
The Pain Collector
Asking after the sinister omen
The Pain Collector
Filled with painful stigmas of death
The Pain Collector
Those bloodshot eyes stare in the dark

Broken heart intoxicated with agony
Pierced with a black lightening
The sobbing of ominous songs
Accompanied by a cold bell tolling

05. Final Conjuration

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
You will leave the chronicle of your anguish
Looking forward to the final night of doom
I will be (the final)
In your dreams (conjuration)
Till the very end

You can't dispel these thoughts
Lashing you with the fire of contempt

All is numb, you look around
Your soul doesn't struggle anymore
Everything makes you suffer
Dark clouds gathering over you again

I will be in your dreams till the very end
Your blood's so precious to me
I will be in your dreams till the very end

You will leave the chronicle of your anguish
Looking forward to the final night of doom
I will be (the final)
In your dreams (conjuration)
Till the very end

The moon enters the cave of the dead
Snakes tense in their sleep
You debase yourself begging for the last spell

06. II Fumus

Music by Darzamat
[instrumental]

07. Gloria Inferni

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
So calm so pale so sad
I was lead through a monumental hall
When a blow blinded me and I lost my way
All the darkest dreams came true

All the darkest dreams came true
She closed her eyes forever
She said: Gloria Inferni

I was lead through a monumental hall
When a blow blinded me and I lost my way
Her ghastly face shrouded in a cloak
Six wings bleeding into six ebony cups
De Profundis - the trembling out of the depths
This infinite flame that crumbled her heart
Dribbling its dark venom
De Profundis

Consciousness fades away, conscience withers away
A shining dagger cutting through my breath
She collected my blood in a stone chalice
Licking the blade with a wicked face
Suddenly encircled by a dreary cortege

All the darkest dreams came true
She closed her eyes forever
She said: Gloria Inferni

It's dusk already, but haunted by nocturnal demons...

08. III Venenum

Music by Darzamat
[instrumental]

09. Solfernus' Path

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
Like the flame fluttering in the wind
Panting with bitterness
Entombed in a smoking urn
His numb fingers clenched around infamy
Like the flame fluttering in the wind

Betrothed to a doomed song of darkness
Stronger than god himself he disavowed his soul for ages
Hoisted the sails when the storm started its mournful lament

The sons of men on the brink of death
How much they suffered looking at his mysterious glare
And the heavens in their eyes faded, the day darkened
The shadow swelling casting its black wing

His numb fingers clenched around infamy
The blurry transparencies of misty dreams
He washed his atrocious soul
He stepped forward, the day darkened

Solfernus' Path

Like the flame fluttering in the wind
Panting with bitterness
Entombed in a smoking urn
He descended into the dark abyss of spectres

Solfernus

10. Lunar Silhouette

Music by Darzamat
[instrumental]

11. King Of The Burning Anthems

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
I am the still darkness of stars
I am the shadow of a flickering flame
I am the mournful moaning of wind
I am the sigh of a tomb of silence
I am the cold eternity of the sea
I am the blood-stained dagger of the hearts

Here I am, the bell that plagues the conscience
Here I am, the gloomy temple of my soul
Here I am, frozen into a gem of wisdom
Here I am, the anthem of shadow
Here I am!

The bright flame against the gale
I illuminate mountain murk with the glow of dawn
The thunder of the storm louder than eternity
The abyss of volcanoes spouting venom

I am the shadow of a flickering flame
I am the blood-stained dagger of the hearts
I am the ember of my pain, the star of my power
I am the dust of desert scratching bloodstained tombs
I illuminate mountain murk with the glow of dawn
Here I am
Here I am

12. IV Spectaculum

Music by Darzamat
[instrumental]

13. Chimera

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
Remnants of human consciousness in you
Polish your rage
You'd give it away without regret
All the stars let you down
Your lost paradise is fading
The wailing of false prophecies
Leading you straight into those ice-cold arms

All the stars let you down
Your lost paradise is fading

Fear lurks in the dark
You'll all shrouded in it
I'll take you up into a vortex
I'll carry you away into the endless starry space
You can't see my veiled face

The wailing of false prophecies
Leading you straight into those ice-cold arms

You'll be the witness of agony
Everything will change
Your eyesight hearing smell will sharpen
The pain will make you want become one of us

The sign of blood imprinted on your arm
Will make you follow my way

The sign of blood imprinted on your arm
Will make you follow my way
You'll open your eyes to the cravings you'd never known

All the stars let you down
Your lost paradise is fading

All the stars let you down
Chimera
Your lost paradise is fading
Chimera
The wailing of false prophecies
Chimera
Fear lurks in the dark
Chimera

The sign of blood imprinted on your arm

14. A Mesmeric Séance

Music by Darzamat
Lyrics by Flauros
Your soul aroused by a sudden flare
Or is it wind howling out in the air?
Is there someone still crying and calling my name?
Or is it rain (sobbing, moaning out in the gale?)
Mesmeric séance

Is this just an illusion or can I really hear
This nocturnal howling of sinister wail
Can I see shadows dancing in the moonlight rays
Or are these pale figures swarming in mortal embrace?

Say farewell to a fading beam
This leaden mist has frozen still
The spectres petrified into gloomy haze
Shrouding mystery that you revolt against

An end to your dreams of absolute power
Only spellbound stupor in the waking hour
Those opiate vapours of oblivion you inhale

My memory thrown down into the abyss
All my secrets entrusted into your clenched fists
My curiosity dazed with this mesmerizing glitter
When the pillars of cognition succumb and wither
