Ancient Beast
Buried, hidden since time before time
A new awake
Risen and ready to feed

I have returned
To consume, to devastate
Set the world in flames
I'm the one you speak of in fear

Calm is over
I gather storms, I rip the heaven
Outbursting rage
Spreads like a plague across the earth

Watch me now
I'm revealed in front of your eyes
How does it feel
when I deform into your worst nightmare

Prince of darkness - hellspawned, the spirit of evil
Prince of darkness - hellspawned, the angel of death

Confront me now
Weak, inferior christian filth
Turn to your faith
My resurrection will be your fall

I'll lay your world to waste
I'll bury your dreams divine
I will erase your history
I will bring storms of mayhem

New dawn arise
Where evil reigns and the cross is burning
The wicked are unleashed
to rejoice and revel in primitive lust

Join us now
Sign your destiny to me with your blood
Feel the taste of black
In Nomine Dei Nostri Satanas

Prince of darkness - hellspawned, the spirit of evil
Prince of darkness - hellspawned, the angel of death

I am forever
Forever I will be
In the shadows of the old
My path litten by their gloom

Do what thou wilt
Dreams shall flesh
In the shadow of the shaman
Dreams shall flesh

I call for the ancients
For the bearer of light
In the dark I'll find my way
Never to be led astray
Lend me your torch
And I'll clothe my soul in black
Come with me into the night
Dance with me eternally

Dancing shadows around me whispering
Nosferatu, Mortiis, Incubus
Crawling, howling, roaring, ecstasy
Blood, skulls, death, blasphemy

Inverted pentacle
I dug myself so deep
Into the unholy soil
The black lotus seed

Witchcraft, black magic, sorcery
Kresnik, Dhampir, Kudlak, Kallikanzaros
Strigoii, Moroii, Draugr, walking dead
Slaughter of the weak and innocent

I drown in your fire
And soon I'll stand reborn
Made of flesh my dreams will be
Crimson red of blood

Do what thou wilt
Dreams shall flesh
Speak to the dead
Dreams shall flesh

We are forever
Forever we will be
Purest evil side by side
Blackest star upon the sky
I seek for the kingdom
Where hatred's burning free
And all the wisdom born of fire
Will be a part of me

In the twilight hour at the dusk of my life I face the reaper's smile
I leave all fear as I cross the gates and begin my journey down
I found myself anaesthetic to dwell forever in sin
But slowly I awoke to feel my hatred burn within

I have sailed my ship on a sea of blood, ndless deep and red
I hit the shore with sails all torn, wounded, almost dead
Stranded in the underworld, growing like a seed
But I will find the ones above and I will make them bleed

Sinners come, sinners burn, sinners never leave
I'm not like them, I will return
My vengeance you will see

I punch my fist right through your flesh and tear out your fucking spine
Bending as hell until it snaps, now you are truly mine
Where is your almighty father now, forsaken you weap in pain
Wishing you where on that pathetic cross of yours as I mount you again...and again

This is where I've always been and what I always meant to be
A spirit in the shadow of Satan's mind, now finally I can see
The flames of hell burn in my soul and Lucifer's wrath is mine
Hell will be wherever I go and the reaper will be my guide

Superlunary orbital cosmic ecstasy
Out of the sky I burst in might
My vengeance you will see

Ancient evil whisper through the winter breeze
Predatory creatures in desperate need of human blood
Hear the deaden choirs as they rise up from the abyss
The fallen angels condemned to wander endless nights

Metamorphosis, a last step into the unknown
From Faust to Mephisto, from light to dark, it has only begun
Float through Baphomet to coalesce with the unholy goat
The world is ours, the earth is now in our control

Nosferatu, prince of death, I speak thy name
Immortalized you haunt the night and thou wilt slay

There she lies with angellike face so peacefully
Palewhite skin, unscarred, speaks of her innocence
She looks so calm but in her dream she twist in despair
Hallucinating of a rising burning hell

Incubus enter her dream
Fertilize her virgin womb
Plant the astral shadowseeds
Let her fucking burst

Destructive visions appear of the apocalypse
The holocaust is here, it's rising from the abyss
Fire and ice is one cosmic catastrophe
A triumph for the cursed ones, the growing shadowseeds

In emptiness I roam
Through the sombre dawnings
I am a living dead
haunted by shadows

End my fucking life - I will not cry
Let me fucking burn - I feel no pain

A life extinct, drowned in sorrow
Dazed by hate and deceit
I sense but immense apathy
When I hear the deathbells toll within

Mourningsoul in torment
Dwell in the obscure
Forever to lurk the unknown
Where will I find my fate

Spread your deadly wings
Let them embrace my soul
Fly me through endless nights
Let me enter the dark domain

Bury my soul among the storms
When I step into an age of darkness
I yearn for thy blessing
Invoke the beast in me

I seek redemption, not for my soul
My salvation is not like yours to behold
The darkest sky beares scars of light
And even death is much to bright

Without a heart one cannot bleed
What is already dead can never leave
The utter cold is what I choose
With a frozen soul and my eyes closed

Take me down to hell - I'll swear the oath
Mark my bleeding soul - I'll sign in blood

As I watch my final sundown
Surrounded by past recollections
In the gathering dusk
Sorrow is exceeding me
When I close my eyes one last time
I see my burning wrath

The time will come when heaven will face our last attack
And hell will be among us under a sky solid black
Eternally dark and silent, their final destiny
Whose souls are put on fire by our hatred burning free

We strike with wrath upon them, born of christian blood
And so they meet the reaper, stripped of all their faith
The sea of blood is boiling, with rage it hits the shore
Their kingdom and their glory swept away forever more

Oh... helfire
Ah... helfire
Ah... helfire
Oh... helfire

Hidden in the shadows, about to seal their fate
Gathered in fury, we are to storm the gates
Darkness now is growing stronger than the light
In silence we're awaiting the long eternal night

The father and the spirit, their holy bastard son
As lies they'll be remembered, unholy we have won
Soon they lay forgotten, buried underground
Of heaven they'll see nothing, nor ever hear a sound

Oh... helfire
Ah... helfire
Ah... helfire
Oh... sweet helfire

Cut through my skin
Let my blood paint your face
In pleasure I scream
As my soul lies devoured

The ultimate enchantment
A dimension beyond pain
Light the black candles
Darkened ceremony begins

The cult of blood
The opening of hell has been done
The cult of blood
The hour of magic has begun

Cast your black spells
Let me be possessed
Show me desire
Visions unholy revealed

Engraved in my flesh
I bear the sign of thee
Embraced by the flames
The world beyond I see

Carry me through the passage
Grant me the powers of darkness

Floating through the sphere
where damnation breeds
Ruler of utter dark
Bless me, infernal majesty

For the art of blood I live
The circle is closed
Eternal immortal
A bond made for him

Driven by an iron will
Driven by a ghostridden thrill
I cast myself into the unknown
To float away in the night

O, mighty forefather
Mystic Draugadrottin
Show me the path
down to Nifelhel

Guide me to the entrance
Guide me through the netherworlds
Down the roots of Heldrasill
Aah, it's so cold here

So this is the kingdom
The domain of the frozen great
There I can see the ancients
Gigantic hrimthursar

Through Elivagor that cross the sphere
A frozen river of giant tears
Through Helivagor, the white domain
The hrimthurs dwelling where Ymer reigns

O, Aurgelmer
Oceans made of blood
Mountains made of bones
And the earth is flesh
The moon is full
The sky is clear
The night is still
O, Aurgelmer

In the frozen empire
So far away
I travel over iceclothed mountains
Far away alone

I start to freeze
I start to shiver as my aura turns pale
Into second death
As I recieve the last kiss from Hel

Soon it is time to join the immortals
I strike on command, defeat leads me forward
Dust in the air, the bitter taste
Of death in my mouth, soon I'll be there

I am but one of thousands to go
The beast in my heart is all that I know
I slay to the ground all that I see
Death by my hand is all that will be

Up in the sky circling above us
Awaiting our death, awaiting our fall
The carnivores smile, the shadow of death
A vulture all black, but I have no fear

Soon it is me who is stabbed to the ground
My soul flying free, my spirit unbound
The greeting of death as my life fades away
Left on the ground my limbs to decay

Bloodhymns now loud and clear
Bloodhymns as life disappears

As I stand by the sea of blood
And bodies raped by silence
I hear the souls, the immortal ones
Sing a hymn for the dying

A new day will dawn and I will be gone
The blood that is spilled will dry in the sun
The sadest of songs still in the air
The anthem of blood will always be there

Wherever I go I still will be blind
Whatever they do, I'll always be numb
Infest my soul, devour my flesh
Scatter my dreams, only hatred is left

[Instrumental]
