Tracks



01. Intro - Despero Illarum

[Instrumental]

02. Ancient Dominion

As the blood falls from the sky, the sounds of Angles cries,
eats away the flesh and souls, of the divine
(Ut cruor cado ex divum, Angli sanus crocinus)
A manifest of hate, from deep within my mind, a curse upon the holy,
to burn the heaven skies
(Vomica erga sanctus, ustulo aether caeli)
The infernal kingdom rises, from the dark into the night,
the demons spread their wings of wrath, upon the Christians lives
(Coniecto regnum orior, ex atrum nox noctis)
Slowly tortured one by one, there is no place for you to go,
there is no god in your afterlife, or gates of pearly white
(Coniecto regnum orior, ex atrum nox noctis)

A pestilence cast down from above, afflict the damned to writhe and moan
No relief from the consuming plague, searing flesh and liquefying bones

Summon the horned one from the Abysmal Legion
The malice is seen within my eyes
The slaughtered gods of the right-hand path
The have dissolved by time are cast aside
Come forth into my sight, Unholy ones

As the candles glow throughout the night
The ancient spells are written out upon the parchment of our obscure twilight
A century of darkness arrives to decimate the blind
Who walk upon this earth as followers of the hypocritical lies

Curses, from foul spirits, tormenting, ravaging the meek
A blight, festers within, no safe haven, upon the cravenly weak

Vengeance - Ascends upon the Earth with its furious winds
Rising - Arising from the depths
Conquest - The land of god now stands in ruins
Destruction - My plague of wrath shall consume your soul

Let me fall - Into the darkest pits
Descending from - The skies now left ablaze
I arrive - Into the shadowed night
Where I find - My heart has now turned to ice

A frozen throne stands before my cleansed soul
A darkened shape, rises before my purged form

Lord of darkness, I take your hand, guide me to the paths unknown
Within the land of morbid visions, I arise as ruler of the throne
To the forests, I shall reign, I claim this land

Demons of forest, I summon you to do as I bid
Kuru-Pira, with dagger fangs and eyes of fire, with a chilling roar, crush your prey
Ravana arise, curse the seas with tempests of storms, split the mountains,
with your furious wrath
Eloko, Oni, devour remains of the filth on this earth, with Windigo and Bori,
leave none in your path

The infernal kingdom rises, from the dark into the night,
the demons spread their wings of wrath, upon the Christians lives
(Coniecto regnum orior, ex atrum nox noctis)
Slowly tortured one by one, there is no place for you to go,
there is no god in your afterlife, or gates of pearly white
(Coniecto regnum orior, ex atrum nox noctis)

No salvation, disaster brought by Pazuzu
Ancient dominion, upon my throne to rule

04. Eternal Night Sky

Into the blackness I fall
Amongst the realm of eternal night
I see the darkest of skies, I hear the silent moon cry
The wolves are howling without its glowing light

Within the dark - See the unseen
Within the dark - I hear my name
Within the dark - The wind blows cold
Within the dark - My blood turns pure

With the blood of immortals?I will rise
Into the depths of eternal night
The dark wings blow against me, the icy fog hides all in sight
As I battle through the storm, I hear the silent cries

In answer to the night, my instincts force me to respond
Rising up?I howl, to creatures far beyond

Walking against this vast land, of coldness and death
Fighting against the blizzards of frost atop the mountains of snow

?Scent of the earth, filling my breath
Blistering cold, chilling my skin, and my blood
Howling wind (echoing in my ears I hear it), calling to me (echoing), screaming my name (echoing)
Weight of the dark (pulling down into the depths), I'm overcome (pulling down), darkness prevails (pulling down), darkness prevails

Consciousness fading
Darkness penetrating
Seeps into my soul
Darkness reborn

I am what makes the sun fall, and bring out the night
I am the screams of demons, I am their cries
Echoing through the forest, my chants are heard
To obtain strength and glory, upon this eternal quest

With the light cast behind me, the truths begin to unveil themselves
About this world that's ending, about the single life you live
The scent of death now greets me, a dark cloud forms within my mind
As I face this path of doom, blood drips down from my eyes
This taste so cold, of this eternal grimness
Forever to be embraced, by these winds
In the frost I wander for eternity, In the frost I find the truth

Within the dark - See the unseen
Within the dark - I hear my name
Within the dark - The wind blows cold
Within the dark - My blood turns pure

Into the blackness I fall
Amongst the realm of eternal night
I see the darkest of skies, I hear the silent moon cry
The wolves are howling without its glowing light

05. Incest Maternal Gifts

Surprised with dizziness and sudden pain
Her birth in darkness through burning flames
Ill-omened chasm opened wide, Goddess of beauty sprung forth within
His head revealed the shining shape, of Satan's daughter Sin

Through clenched teeth he screamed?

Ominous to Seraphim for a portent of war believed
But her father's lust overcame him, and in her womb conceived
A heavenly battle arose for which there was no victory
Lucifer's army was driven into the pitch of hell

Cast into the deep, filled with rueful throes
Of Satan's child within, until hell's number grow

Tearing through entrails brought his violent entry to this Deep
Hell trembled at his birth as Sin shrieked the name of Death

With fear and pain she fled, to escape her monstrous son
With single purpose, he pursued her flight
His lust overwhelmed him, as he hunted his mother down
Until inside her, Death found release

His seed within her, bred pain of infinity
Anew each hour, the horrors of misery

From her womb the hounds of hell burst forth unto the Deep anew
Hourly the beasts retreat into her bowels to gnaw and chew

Horrors of incest, torment infernally
Terrors of ingress, fear-filled eternity

Hounds of Sin - Her fear ever spreads
Hounds of Sin - Maternal gifts from her incest

Since cast down into the chasm, a gift forever her bane
The keys to the gates of hell, a warden without end

Guard of hell - There is no escape
Guard of hell - The gates are closed

"Please just let me die" - "Please I want to die"

Howls from within mark her renewed labor
Her denizens rip her misshapen form

With fear and pain she fled, to escape her monstrous son
With single purpose, he pursued
His lust overwhelmed him, as he hunted her down
Until inside her, there was release

Hounds of Sin - Her fear ever spreads
Guard of hell - There is no escape
Hounds of Sin - Incest's maternal gifts
Guard of hell - The gates are closed

"Please I want to die"

06. Offerings Of Blood

Arise my blood, Arise my flesh
Take my gifts, awaken this night
With dark infused, blacken out the light

Brought to the altar of blood and sacrifice
Darkness upon us, amongst the fog, I cry

Take this offering, oh Great One arise from the Deeps
Awaken now, drain the blood, unleash your mighty chaos
Darken the existence unto mankind
Walk amongst the earth, destroyer of time

Casting shadows, upon those still alive
Devouring souls, ensure that none survive

And I offer you this, you shall never hunger for no matter how much you feed,
there will always be souls

Tearing their souls, to feed your dark shadow
Ripping their flesh, to hunger no more
Consume essence, of the lives brought before you
Drain their blood, strengthening your own

Tendrils reaching out, silencing the shouts, darkness shall surmount
Offerings of pain, as the shadows maim, until naught remains

Take this offering, oh Great One arise from the Deeps
Awaken now, drain the blood, unleash your mighty chaos
Darken the existence unto mankind
Walk amongst the earth, destroyer of time

Slaughtering the lost souls, as they travel to the light
Craving the blood and the flesh of the alive

Come forth from the shadows, darkness alive
My offering of blood, darkness alive
Come forth from the gloom, darkness alive
My offering of flesh, darkness alive

Blood is shed in the dead of night, Forever a curse to devour the light
Tormented souls fall severed from the sky
The ageless one has ended all life, that which remains is blackened inside
My offering of blood, darkness alive

Come forth from the blackness, darkness alive
My offering of souls, darkness alive
Come forth from the shadows, darkness alive
My offering of blood, darkness alive
