Reckless men - So righteous, so clean
Towards the light - So bashful, so pure Who told you to abandon life Your strength, free will And bow for the light? The light! And turn from the spinning wheel Fear of the judgment! Obey! Ref: You have the key to mystery Pick up the runes; unveil and see Judgment comes, before us lie The paths of war and you may die You have the key, cross over and see The old and wind-cold tree Walk the steps and you'll hear the winds that cry Search beyond the blinded eyes Listen before you preach Don't leave yourself behind Honor life, when life has ceased Welcome the dawn Beware the glory tales Watch their deeds - So just and fair Crusaders - Appointed by God Who told you to step inside and preach? Did you forget the daggers lurking in the dark? Couldn't you listen or didn't you ever learn how? Were you saved? Were you saved, so you could slaughter with grace? Ref: You have the key to mystery Pick up the runes; unveil and see Judgment comes, before us lie The paths of war and you may die You have the key, cross over and see The old and wind-cold tree Walk the steps and you'll hear the winds that cry Search beyond the blinded eyes Listen before you preach Don't leave yourself behind Honor life, when life has ceased Welcome the dawn Beware the glory tales Hold on, don't fade away Don't be afraid to bleed Don't be afraid to dream Let the elders enlighten the path They have cried for you They have died for you Drasill - Ride on Drasill - Ride on Ride on Drasill 02. Raidho Music & lyrics by I. S. Peersen
This journey without movement
Heading out for no-man's land The way ahead my only ally Early hours, in the silence This credence keeps me upright Through the storms and disasters A straight line towards the unknown end Deceit waits on the back roads This unwavering inner Keeps fear a welcomed pointer I, uprooted, now the fertile soil As plot and shadows thicken This juggernaut cannot be stopped On any scale or planet Ghostly tracks in my wake and ahead An experience, cannot be shared Ref: Wheels of time Keep them turning Carriage of concepts Circling the planes Lightless voyage, blinding speeds Certain; I'll stay the distance Abstract shapes, enigmatic design I know enough to endure Lightless corridors, ageless Familiar / Alien Contradictory engines run high Deeper and further above Journey of no promises Beyond the lust for rewards Focus on the movement of the Wheel Union of stillness and change Journey of the ages all I'll follow outside the edge Breath, blood, sacrifice and bleeding eyes Unending journey ahead Ref: Wheels of time Keep them turning Carriage of concepts Circling the planes 03. Waruun Music & lyrics by I. S. Peersen
See them as they rise
From ancient sands - constructs They're reaching everywhere and nowhere As they're trampling on the archetypes The listener warns Tension... Pain... Fear... Violence It reaches the limit set by Ageless reason Tension paints logic's hunts Pain dances... (with justice) Lies for the liar served without remorse Like the gifts bring gifts Altering view Constant truth - drained of spirit By own will "Ref..": Waruun Waruun - Drawn in the dust of morning Waruun - The violence of the soul Suicides upon the altars Of evasion Feared dissonance kept away - nails on stone As darkness descents Can't find our way out of here Yet... It was built by you Words on the trap-door "Ref..": Waruun Waruun - Drawn in the dust of morning Waruun - The violence of the soul Tension... Pain... Fear... Violence How could freedom become the cage-maker? What spoke to the mind-slayer? 04. The Beacon Music by I. S. Peersen Lyrics by K. Grutle
To war!
Let the havoc be revenged March! Against the lords of perdition Live! Breathe! Persecute the ones that left to persecute your soul Crush the scepters of the kings and come and Hail the vows of old! Ref: Hear them cry Watch them fly Let them bow to the altars of suppression Till you'll feel them die Hear them cry Watch them fly The power and the free will they deny Beyond the mist Far above On the highest peak The beacon is lit On the highest peak The beacon will burn How did I get this far? How did it come to this? Was my blood spilt in vain? Did I survive, did I break the chains? Was I ever alive? Struggle through the wounds Struggle through the fears Struggle through the truths You stand alone Come through! Release me! Ref: Hear them cry Watch them fly Let them bow to the altars of suppression Till you'll feel them die Hear them cry Watch them fly The power and the free will they deny Beyond the mist Far above On the highest peak The beacon is lit On the highest peak The beacon will burn I walked this far myself My blood dripped from my knife I awoke, and was alive I did no longer weep I saw my beacon, I ran to aid 05. Axioma Music by I. S. Peersen Lyrics by I. S. Peersen & K. Grutle
"Mind not the worshippers of punishment,
Un-growers and resisters" Close your eyes, sense the below Torment and separation points ahead Set ablaze like steel through skin "Fear not the settlement with those who fear the truth" Leave now, bid farewell with no grief Their words have no power The forces will roam and return 06. Giants Music by I. S. Peersen Lyrics by K. Grutle
No distance, no time
Endless void, absence of life Chaos dwells outside the womb Seduce, Invoke Embrace, Give birth See through the flesh See past the soul Feel the pulsating twilight Domain of unborn thoughts Go back, Unveil Approach the cosmic womb No smile without pain No grief without laughter Ref.: Turn inwards, Realize Witness the march of the Giants - Soil and seed Turn inwards, Gratify Witness the storming of heaven - Endless rebirth Come nearer, Restless sin Step into the core They will welcome your return Further in Ride the storm one can't escape Awake the Gods Awake the Gods Ref.: Turn inwards, Realize Witness the march of the Giants - Soil and seed Turn inwards, Gratify Witness the storming of heaven - Endless rebirth 07. Singular Music & lyrics by I. S. Peersen
Born into oblivion
Without the fear -of existing all alone Later comes the acquisition - forced upon The solitude Now loneliness The god now submerged in a game of guilt Psychopathic shepherds deny the miracle -of our essence ...And yet we have part in the blame Allowing their ravings, Comforting their weakness, their sickness It is time to LIVE TRUST NO ONE Recognize black Recognize white Recognize shadows I am with gods Black...White...Shadows...Gods Recognize black Recognize white Recognize shadows I am with gods Traitors want to keep you down Rise up from the ground No-one steals what no-one owns Disown and distance Strong is she who realizes Ethics built on sacrifice No-one steals what no-one owns One by one by one Strong is she who realizes Ethics built on sacrifice No need for companionship Back into the silence It is all it needs Desolation Singular - Death - Birth Singular - Birth - Death Alone in birth Alone in the darkness Alone in death Alone in the daylight One with reality Shaped by the inner glow Determination - I All can be reached from within Born into oblivion Without the fear -of existing all alone Later comes the acquisition - forced upon The solitude Now loneliness The God now submerged in a game of guilt Psychopathic shepherds deny the miracle -of our essence ...And yet we have part in the blame Allowing their ravings, Comforting their weakness, their sickness It is time to LIVE TRUST NO ONE Recognize black Recognize white Recognize shadows I am with gods 08. Night Sight Music & lyrics by I. S. Peersen
I can see through the veil
Seeing all I need see Nothing is hidden here Deep into the woods Casting Letters that speak of... All Is all Is naught No-one but me Knows of this place Sanctuary Where I construct Dream while there is no strife Anguish pulls no weight One can see and the other is blind Through the same pair of eyes We have lost sight Of the night-side of the self Hunted by the fear Of reunion Night-sight is bliss For he who dares look into A world where you embrace the opposite Where you are whole There is no lasting joy In numbness and dogma Too much is too little in knowledge Driven by mystery We have lost sight Of the night-side of the self Hunted by the fear Of reunion Night-sight is bliss For he who dares look into A world where you embrace the opposite Where you are whole 09. Lightening Music by I. S. Peersen Lyrics by K. Grutle
I crossed the borders
The pain won't go away For this treason, I want to see them ... Burn! Hunt them down Make them understand The power I possess I'll give you piece of mind And freedom to search inside I'll suffer for your souls I cleaned the air I slew death in your way The hand of peace All evil's great dismay Hear the wheels turn See the sky burns For this treason, I want to see them... Burn! Track them down Bring them to silence My will is the law I'll bring you life and growth And erase the memories of despair I'll suffer for your needs Don't you forget where your domain lies Obey your slaves, with their feeble cries We'll force you back if you linger here We mock your strength, we see your fear You'll never set a slave's mind free Your bane is the grip of anxiety At the ninth... REID - Travel with no fear REID - Remember to return REID - Defy the laughing chaos REID - Strike again You fight the wars for your kin You leave yourself behind This settlement, you can't win The inner eye is blind REID - Travel with no fear REID - Remember to return REID - Defy the laughing chaos REID - Strike again You fight the wars for your kin You leave yourself behind This settlement, you can't win The inner eye is blind I will clean the air I know the pain will stay I'll cross the border I'll never fade away For this treason, I want to see them... Burn! Track them down Bring them to silence My will is the law I'll bring you life and growth And erase the memories of despair I will linger on |
