The magic seal is broken, to the gates of darkness
With a mighty burst they open, a way down to the abyss
A black horse with blazing eyes, waiting for the time to die
Bound by paralizing cries...
Segmentising bodies
Cutting through your flesh
Ripping out your heart
Leave a path of death

A cold stingof fear - blows like a spear right through your heart
A rider darker than hell - through the distant shadows dark
Bodies snap like straw - armies fall like autum leaves
A heart black into the core - the abyssal spectre

Where he rides, the death will follow
The chaos rules, with it's screams so hollow

All the live destroyed, and all the ground is burnt
Now the gates are shut, until it will return
Leaving burning ruins, the plains burst in a roaring sound

Breaking through the surface, back into the underground
Back into the underground

Once in an age unknown - terrible wars were fought
The ground covered with bodies - fallen in the battles of gods
And the armies of the foul - like they have never been seen
Were slaying without a thought
Creatures of chaos - burning skies - realms of fire - battlecries
Walls of ice - with a deadly glow - crimson blood covered snow

Hammers of gods - smashing down
Drums of war - roaring sound
Fallen angels - paiful cries
Dying demons - gods of lies

In the night a child was born - of the witches lust
Sacrificed the body - burned and turned to dust
with the heart of a wolf - and the ravens eyes
Roaming through the forest - flying above the sky

And the godslayer was born - born in fire
So the end of the gods is near - they will never survive)
So he flies in the wings of a raven - and sees things that mankind will never see
Mystic, wonderful places - places mankind will never be

Hail the godslayer

Where are the friends - no friends I can see
Who are the foe - there is no difference to me
Where are the friends - no friend I can see
Who are the foe - there is no difference to me

He rises from the ashes - he rises from the dead
A wolf-hearted children - just as the legend said
Through the murky forests - across the silver seas
To a place of silence - where I love to be
Wandering through the landscapes -
Where a thousand rivers flow
Over highest mountains - need a thousand years to grow
Into caves beneath the hills - for noones eyes to see
Through deserts bare of life - but there is no escape for me

Paradise - is what you'll never see
Endless torture - for my enemies

The journey to the realms of gods -
Below the mighty halls of stone
His battle against the enemies -
He must fight alone
Deadly lightning bolts flaming in fading light of day
Icy winter storms guide a long and deadly way

Paradise - is what you'll never see
Endless torture - for my enemies

Darkness - stormclouds cover the land
Until the blood of the gods is the blood on my hands
Ashes - into ashes you will turn
Hellfire - in the flames of hell you will burn

He rises from the ashes - he rises from the dead
A wolf-hearted children - just as the legend said
Through the murky forests - across the silver seas
To a place of silence - where I love to be
Wandering through the landscapes - where a thousand rivers flow
Over highest mountains - need a thousand years to grow
Into caves beneath the hills - for noones eyes to see
Through deserts bare of life - but there is no escape for me

Paradise - is what you'll never see
Endless torture - for my enemies

Wicked winds - blowing hard
Riding straight - into the dark
Ebony mist - rises high
Ravenwings - I can fly
A fearless heart - will survive
A soul of pain - will never die
A sword of grim - a hate so old
And I will strike - Just as foretold

A mighty burst blasts the gates of the dimensions
Flying right into the heart of the chaos engine
Strange things I see, strange things I hear
Nowhere to hide, nothing to fear
The deeper down - as I go
Into the place - you'll never know
To face the enemy - eye to eye
A mighty battle - one shall die

Not me!
Into eternity

The deeper down - as I go
Into the place - you'll never know
To face the enemy - eye to eye
A mighty battle - one shall die

War!
Fighting hard, as armies fall
Batteling gods in marble halls
I am wounded down on my knees
They can't kill nature, cause nature is me

Noone believes in you - so will die forever
Noone will pray to you - you will be dead forever more.

The deeper down as I went
The more I knew what it meant
Eternal wind take me away
No more reason for me to stay
The gods are slayn, the battle won
The nature free, revenge is done

So I am dying - but you will die forever
Noone will know you - but nature will be forever.

Night is finally closing in, but I have no fear
In the hour when the night falls
Voices from the dark side are calling my name
Slowly fading to the world where I belong
Ebony rising, I close my eyes
Flashing pictures of an old remembrance passing by
On obsidian wings I fly, leave the gates behind
Through the colonnades of eternity
This is the end for me, I'm dying

So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise
On black wings I fly, as I cross the dark sky
So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise
When daylight dies, eternally

As whispers surround me, see people I have known
Remember times I had forgotten long ago
Dark arms embrace my soul, emptiness fills my mind
As the pulse of life is slowly fading
Now a storm is rising
Then he appears
Cloaked in a robe of black
Waiting to guide my soul from here
Across the stream of life, to a kingdom beyond, back to the place of birth,
So this the end for me, I'm dying

So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise
On black wings I fly, as I cross the dark sky
So I close my eyes, and I can see the shadows rise
When daylight dies, eternally

A world of silence, waits for me, the end in darkness, is my destiny
As my life passes, before my eyes, from my birth, to the time I die
From my cradle, to my grave, a little time, until the death embrace.
Now my memories fade away, the past forgotten, a new life waits for me.
Will I reincarnate, will I die forever, when I meet my fate, at the break of dawn.
Soon I will now, if there is endless darkness, or there is blazing light.
When daylight turns to night.

Eternal Silence
As my memories Fade to black
Rising darkness
And there is no turning back

In the times of the warriors, swords, blood and honour
When tales of wizards and black magic became reality
When the period of never ending cruelty, the rulers just accept
But the creatures of the night retired to the outlands

Where love was known as a beautiful vision but hate and revenge
Were the first laws in every man's live
The time has come for some respectable warriors to lay down the sword
And to turn away from battles and death

He thought about the children and hoped they'll never see
The cruelty of the battles where thousands had to die
His sword lies down in honour and it didn't want to kill again
But the periods of peace sometimes fly away like the stormwind

The calm will not go on
The sword lies restless
The calm will not go on
The sword lies restless

The battl is won but the dark age will return
Thousands had to die but it lives on and on
At that time they went together, afraid of nothing
They thought to be invincible, but they're not immortal
Blood was flowing like a river but they could be victorious
The battle is won, but the dark age will return

Listen warrior, in the past you have been victorious,
But the decisive battle is still before you.
The dark lord is now mightier than before,
And he will return with his armies of immortals to devour all live.
I will tell you what you have to do:
Do you remember?
Well, there is no more time to loose
The sword has resteed long enough
Let us put an army together
As big as the biggest mountain
As strong as the strongest giant
As mighty as the mightiest storm
And let us beat them with the blood of a dragon on our blades
The the dark lord will yield the armies of the light.
We have to go now, to our fate
But this victory will last eternally.

For the blood of the dragon will flow
United we'll stand, with swords in our hands
To bring glorious days over our enchanted land.
Let us do the confession, we need the agression
To beat the dark armies and defend our land.
We must fight with the fire of dragon's desire
His blood is our ally, the essence of life.

At that time they went together, afraid of nothing
They thought to be invincible, but they're not immortal
Blood was flowing like a river but they could be victorious
The battle is won, but the dark age will return

In the times of the warriors, swords, blood and honour
When tales of wizards and black magic became reality
When the period of never ending cruelty the rulers just accept
And the creatures of the night returned from the outlands

The calm will not go on
The sword lies restless
The calm will not go on
The sword lies restless

Empty Streets, constant fear
Faces mist, something's near
Here in this valley of fearful dreams
Where is nothing as it seems
We are scared of things unknown
Our darkest phantasies are shown

A whisper in the deathlike silence runs like sirens through my mind
The shadows getting longer, night comes, no way out here I can find

A flash of light lighting up the darkness is like thousand nails cutting my flesh
These are the echoes of our darkest trips, this is our winter of the apocalypse

The smell of death is in the air, the fate of others I don't care
The bloody end, now I can see, the one who dies is finally me
I will fly into eternity; It's finally me

Now in my thoughts I even forge total extinction
I am the seventh sign, Devil's reincarnation

Strange, strange things you fear,
Now it is me, I am a part of
The ancient enemy

Now in my thoughts I even forge total extinction
I am the seventh sign, Devil's reincarnation

My master has told me to
Escape the three dimensions
Noone believes, it's true
I am the phantom in your nightmares
The mystery beyond reality
The bringer of your doomsday

Mayhemic thoughts destroy my mind I am enslaved by .....
The ancient enemy, the deepest abyss of my lost soul

A whisper in the deathlike silence runs like sirens through my mind
The shadows getting longer, night comes, no way out here I can find
A flash of light lighting up the darkness is like thousand nails cutting my flesh
These are the echoes of our darkest trips, this is our winter of the apocalypse

The smell of death is in the air,
The fate of others I don't care
The bloody end, now I can see
The one who dies is finally me

Sunlight is fading, the season of blood will now begin

Burning coffins, eyes of fire, the dark lords wander through the night
Eternal damnation, thirst for blood, and now they will embrace the dead
Essential liquid for immortality, but the condition is to kill
The whole existance, remains in darkness, never see the light of day

There I see you, nameless one, a woman raped by evil
Come to my Kingdom, victim of lust, and now welcome the darkside
I cry in pain, of my desire, but now you're here to heal me
I'll drink your blood, and I relief you, then you will love the darkness

Sunlight is fading the season will begin
Black Moon is rising to survive is no sin
Sunlight is fading the season will begin
Black Moon is rising to survive is no Sin

Hidden lusts will break the gates to light
The night secrets my desire for blood

Burning coffins, eyes of fire, the dark lords wander through the night
Eternal damnation, thirst for blood, and now they will embrace the dead
Essential liquid for immortality, but the condition is to kill
The whole existance, remains in darkness, never see the light of day

Sunlight is fading the season will begin
Black Moon is rising to survive is no sin
Sunlight is fading the season will begin
Black Moon is rising to survive is no sin

The End of day, the fading light
Falls on the sentinel of night
The guardian of her tombstone
Forgotten and alone

She cries below the moonshine
All memories of her fade in time
Impressions of her beauty
From beyond the grave

The time has passed so slowly
An old man now I am
Lived a life so senseless
Waiting for the end

The time has cracked your tombstone
A sign of the decay
On a grave so nameless
The inscription washed away

They said Angels never cry
But I saw her cry
They said Angels never die
But I saw her die

All life I spent praying, praying for my death
Waiting for my doomsday, to do my final step
A journey to world, without loneliness and pain
A journey to a world, to get her back again.

They said Angels never cry
But I saw her cry
They said Angels never die
But I saw her die

Shadows fill my mind
I take my final breath
I leave the world behind
Into a long awaited death [2x]

Deathlike silence
Fills the night
Then an angel appeared
In the shining light

A release for a praying man to die
A release for a bitter man who cries
A release for a lonely man in the end
The fulfill of the love which I demand

A touch of her makes me remember as if it was yesterday
The strings of life are cut, my soul starts to drift away
Into another world our souls will unify
A lifetime of pain is forgotten
A life long I wanted to die

They said angels never cry
But I saw her cry
They said angels never die
But I saw her die
I thought a livetime it was a lie
But it was no lie
She came back to me again
Just as I died.

A caress of moonlight, a touch of stars
It keeps me strong is this curse of life
The sunlight burns in my eyes (escape the day)
Saved by embracing darkness
Deep in the night (beyond your fears)
The gate away from all the tortures
To the kingdom of glory

The throne is burning in fire, The throne is frozen in ice
Might is their desire, Life is my sacrifice
The mirror is broken, I leave the tortures of life
Swearing allegiance, Till the end of all days

Gods of...Gods of fire
Gods of...Gods of ice

To the Gods of fire and ice I will pray
The baptism of blood will now be done
Appeasing their anger with the blood from my wrist
Begging for their mercy, from death I'll be kissed

Ascending the altar, the last step for my flesh
Oppressive silence surrounds me on this holy place
Now I am feeling the cold wrath of darkness
Forcing me to breathe the odour of putrefaction

Blazing in moonlight
The knife cuts slowly through my veins
I fill the chalice with blood-red wine
This, my life will soon be thine

Burn my body - ashes to the past
Leave your soul behind - what was once will ever last
Gods of fire, gods of ice
Cheerfull we awaited you - together we will rise

The throne is burning in fire, The throne is frozen in ice
Might is their desire; Life is my sacrifice
The mirror is broken, I leave the tortures of life
Swearing allegiance; Till the end of all days [2x]

Gods of...Gods of fire
Gods of...Gods of ice
Gods of fire and ice

My eyes are closed the day has gone by
The stars will rise on the blackend sky
And as I dream the nightmare never ends
I will enter Shadowland

The forests dark eternal fires burn
In my dreams a path without return
Moving shadows thrown by the moonlight
In caverns of foulness cold as ice

Chaos creatures surround my
The curse of sleep has bound me
I can see the shadows rising

A cloak of black, spreading darkness
Eyes of fire, blazing madness
Burning...suffering...

Just take a look at my eyes
The hellfire will make you die
A breath of mine will cover you with frost
A spell of mine and you will turn to dust
Obey me...forever
Stay with me...forever

I can see the eyes of hate...is it too late
Shadows hunting me...there is no escape
I can feel the sphere of cold...behind me
There must be a way out...but I can´t see

Landscapes, moving...reality, twisting
The touch of a cold hand
Trapped in shadowland

My eyes are closed, the night has gone by
The sun will rise, on the daylight sky
And as I dream, the nightmare never ends
Dying in shadowland

He takes me by my hand
He guides me to the promised land
The gates are shut behind me
Darkness is the last thing that I can see
he takes me away...

But see, beyond the darkness there is light

I leave the shadow portals behind, they're soon so far away
Arrive, where they call my name, is this reality
This place, it seems so intimate, have I been here before
Visions of my journey through the dark, all memories are gone

Lonely in this strange forgotten world
Everything I know is so far away

My eyes are are closed again, but this is no dream
there is no noise to hear, exept my begging scream
Deceaesed by this misleading light
Imprisoned by that eternal night

Live or death, paradise or hell
Is this still live or is this death
am I in paradise or in hell
here is no guide who shows the way
I'll never see the light of day again
