01. The Wrath Of Angels

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
By my side you spent the nights
Weaving dreams to last forever
Forging memories to last
Beyond the moment
Beyond the night
But we were cursed
To live the eternal darkness
Beneath the moon
We will defy
the Wrath of angels

Cursed by fate we fell from grace
The word was ripped out from our chests
We saw the gates of heaven fade away before our eyes
(we said goodbye)
As our sun went down for the last time
We awoke entombed in separate graves
Beneath the moon
We will defy
the Wrath of angels

To embrace your innocence
I'm longing for
The taste of nectar
Sweet
From your lips
A word
A song
Of joy
A kiss...
...Of moonlight
Bright
Sparkling eyes
A tender touch
In a dream
For me
To see
How it could be...

In your eyes
A glimpse of light
Of paradise
Burning bright
Still I see
Before me
How it could be
For you
For me

A time I recall before our fall
From heavens grace and golden halls
(When) I mesmerized adored your eyes
the most precious jewels on the starlit sky

In a dream I saw
how the wolf his raven sought

Beneath the moon
in snow and frost
He sang his songs
of grief and loss

The wrath of angels
tore us apart
The wrath of angels
bleed my heart

The wrath of angels

02. The Boy Who Dances With Ghosts

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
Rejoice
This celebration
The blind god smiles
At us tonight

Resounding with laughter
The night is alive
A night to remember
For those who have died

Spirits have risen
To gather around
The gifted child
With angel's eyes
Shunned by the living
Loved by the dead
He's in league with the devil
Or so they say?

Resounding with laughter
The night is alive
A night to remember
For those who have died
The flotsam and jetsam
Of the other side
The ragged and torn?
The pale and forlorn?

The ragged and torn?
The pale and forlorn?

Fearless he moves
Among shadows and tombs
In the dead of the night
By the light of the moon
For he's the boy who dances with ghosts?

03. The Needle Twins

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
"Dreams
disolve 'fore our eyes
the prophet burn
a paradise
appear in screams
and raging fire
licks the flesh
of our sacrifice
tonight..."

If I could dream?
I would dream you through
An endless vision
We failed to see
Now burn the prophets?
For what they saw?
No hope, no future?
We failed to see?

Through life?

If I could dream?
We failed to see?
Our eyes were opened?
The Blind one's dream?
No time for reason
Down they fell
Before our eyes
Our blinded eyes

Through Hell?

"Eyes shadow blessed
by night light reaper
Of hollowed souls dressed
for their funeral
Stare through the abyss
Where the maggots are crumbling
At the core of the mass
never born"


See the ghosts I left behind,
Upon the reeking pile
Of twisted human flesh
I stare and watch it grow,
Underneath the moon so cold
The ravens die as foretold
By the prophets in the flames
the Blind one smiles he knows our name

And we failed to see
If I could dream?
And we failed to see
If I could dream?
No time for reason
Down they fell?
Before our eyes
If I could dream?

04. Opus Umbrarum

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
The shadows smile and invited me
"Come to us
we'll set you free
this is your time, can't you see?
We'll end your pain and misery!"

In the wind i can hearthe call
Urging me to redeem my soul
I watch the candle in front of me
Flicker and die
NowI can see...
Through the hollow illusions
The emptiness of life
A Shattered Existence
I have made up my mind...

"Never mind to say goodbye
who will miss you?
Who will cry?"
The shadows smiles and invited me
"Come to us, we'll set you free
no more thoughts and memories
no more pain and misery..."
The hollow illusions
the essence of life
A shattered existence
I have made up my mind...

Suicide...
"Per DoloremAd Caelum"
(Opus Umbrarum)

05. Necropolis (Revisited)

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
I see no stars in the sky
No clouds are passing by
I see no sun nor moon
Necropolis-The city of doom

The sand glows grey and cold
Outside the city, where I stand and behold
The bleached bones rises high
Necropolis-Made of those who have died

In a shroud I am dressed
As if I am laid to my final rest
Twisted souls welcome me
Necropolis- My sanctuary

Necropolis- Mourns and wails
Necropolis- Agony prevails

06. The Ravens Flies

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
Angel, kiss goodbye the shadows
A last farewell to the hollowed one
For my dead soul a revival
As you lift me high up from the ground

In your arms I felt the fire
A blood red passion burning bright
In your eyes I saw a reason
And the past fade out of sight

A last kiss, goodbye
I'm leaving
A last kiss
For the joy
The devil smiled
As you spread your wings
Behold!
The Raven flies...

I left the world
Dead and buried
In the filthy memories
Of life itself
Which I ignored
While I was breathing
Hypocrisy

Dark eyes filled with silent wonders
Devoured my soul and made me see
Black wings laced with silver moonlight
Embrace my heart through an endless dream

In your eyes
Beyond our dream
Take me high
Spread your wings
The Raven flies

07. The Invisible

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
Fear me...
Forever
In Shadows
In the darkness
And the cold
Pale and unwanted
Branded and scorned

The eyes
The eyes that see only illusions
The eyes
The lies
See through my naked body
Deny me if you can
The slow death of your infant soul
I enjoy
I destroy
The Eyes

The world is now my hiding place
My shadows
Everywhere
The cold
I feel so cold...
Wrapped in the stained sheets
Of your cheap motel sanctuary
A plague to the eyes that see only illusions
An angel's wings
Blackened with the sweetest of sins
Fear me
For I'm real

08. Stigmata MMVII

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
Carry my soul on the
Black wings of your ecstasy
Lift it up high
Towards the heavens in blasphemy
I am what i am
What i forever will be
In the name of Jesus fucking Christ
Bleed for me!

Stigmata

Carry my soul on the
Black wings of your ecstasy
The death of an angel
The sacrifice of purity
Impaled by faith
Desecrated is your sanctuary
In Hoc Signo
Bleed for me!

Stigmata

Behold the sign in my hand
I hold the key to the wonderland
The path is clear I'll lead the way
Follow me and don't walk astray
And if you really loves me true
Can i ask one thing from you
Show your love for all to see
Will you bleed for me

09. Until The Light Of Day

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
My treasure, I can smell your fear
You know you're not alone
You pray your lord your soul too keep...
Well, he may when I am done
Where's the precious god now I ask thee
I do not fear thy crucifix

Your life is mine for me to take
To feast upon at night
Like a cup of nectar, sweet
I'll drink you with delight

Oblivion takes you in her arms
For a dance throughout the night
Whirling around in a crimson gown
You stare into the devils eyes
Embraced by dreams and shadows smooth
YOu slowly fade away
Into the dark and silent void
Of death to there remain

Just another dream in crimson
For the slaughter another sheep
A god awakes
To let you die alone
And deep within the dreamers tower
The ball continues for another night
'till the light of day
And silence reclaims its throne

10. No Life

Music & lyrics by The Equinox ov the Gods
Through dreams I wander
Your smile engulfed my mind
I fear the dawn is drawing nigh
I fear the end of every night

Just keep me dreaming
Another life waits to be
Explored in the light
Radiating from the divine
Passion that is present
As the fire burning bright
In your eyes
In the moonlight
I see the ghost that I've come to be

Just keep me dreaming
Let my life be defined
By the temptations that you bring me
On my lonesome path through the night
Summoned by the vanity
Of a hope that was not meant to be
Embraced by someone
Someone like me
I see

No life!

I fade away for a dream
that seem to be forever beyond reach
Unnoticed by the angel
I die each night unseen
for a dream

I'm reaching for the sun, unseen,
In hope that the angel that dwell therein
Will notice me and take me into her dream

I realize it was all in vain
My wings are burning and I fall again
Into a maelstrom of agony and screams

No life! - Through dreams I wander
No life! - Your smile engulfed my mind
No life! - I fear the dawn is drawing nigh
No life! - I've closed the last door
No life! - Unseen I walk through life
No life! - I fear the end of every night
No life! - I fear the end is drawing nigh
No life! - I fear the end is drawing nigh
