Years of plead, behind the walls
Chambers and vaults, Scenes of fright Unspoken Words, in pain and dread 140 lives passed his hands Gilles De Ray's... the perverted son The holy man... hanged by nobility Into The Crypts of Rays... Alluring children for his masses Robbing and buying young souls Sacrifice to morbid demons Satisfy his repulsive sexual lust Gilles De Ray's... the perverted son The holy man... hanged by nobility Into The Crypts of Rays... "So this is for the morbid one, The braveless and sick Shivering laughter shrilled through the tombs Sexual offence and perverted rites Watching them limp and die... Wizards and darkness, Gilles' dreams Halfway came true..." As a late medieval's French marshall Unrestrained, with endless ambitions Personal guard for Jeanne D'Arc ...the rising of his soul to god... Gilles De Ray's... the perverted son The holy man... hanged by nobility Into The Crypts of Rays... Overdone Mystism and Desperate Satanism (Ha!) Are just one small step apart There's no human scheme in the beyond... Gilles De Ray's... the perverted son The holy man... hanged by nobility Into The Crypts of Rays... 02. Visions Of Mortality
My life turns into sand
Immortality is my dream Man shall follow my command Sorcery shall conquer my fear Astral magic and runic wand I feel that wisdom's near Across the mountain's ice Scarlett at the equinox' dawn I sacrificed an innocent lamb And drunk the wine of paradise But, still run the sands of time Just one thing yet to be done As spell surround me At a lightmass' night He raised the abyss Covered by the sword I sold my soul in vein I feel it, as he returns The sands of time will never run For an immortal dead man. 03. Dethroned Emperor
See the portal, gate to madness
Locked forever in a veil of shame Deny extraction - Thirst for disgrace Watch his break - The emperor's killed Light of the day - Shadows from beyond Scaffold of steel - The throne has gone Dethroned emperor The foot of the stairs, dimension in might The king sits, his eyes are glass Growing of the small - The laughter's fall Can you deny - Remaining cries? Descent of the lords - Into the trap Existence and hate - Unseen gate Dethroned emperor. 04. Morbid Tales
By burial this night
Nitocrys weaves the spell Down the vault's misty light The lurking Sphinx dwells Agony and nightmare To Yog sothoth they noan Nightfalls, morbid affair Beard the faceless one In the nuclear domain Arcades lost in eternal skries Written by the insane Nitocrys orders must Agony and nightmare To Yog sothoth they noan Nightfalls, morbid affair Beard the faceless one Mummy's rebirth by wrath Below the temple of nile Vanished in Osiris' path Above us reigns the Necrophile Agony and nightmare To Yog sothoth they noan Nightfalls, morbid affair Beard the faceless one Morbid Tales. 05. Procreation Of The Wicked
You are blind - Deny the sun and light
Whose are the objections - From where come the doubts Evidence of infinity Procreation of the wicked Twist of the known Procreation of the wicked Serenades of opposition - Absurdity, humans fate and hope True reflections of community - Procreation of the gods and lords Evidence of infinity Procreation of the wicked Twist of the known Procreation of the wicked Cain and Abel's love and death - Love and hate is what we are Dagger and grail are- Fallen of the altar Evidence of infinity Procreation of the wicked Twist of the known Procreation of the wicked "Mysteries of perversity" "I've killed this old man, because he limped I've done it because he shouldn't have to do it" If god raised the abyss - you'd procreate your own Abolism of death is - Abolism of life Evidence of infinity Procreation of the wicked Twist of the known Procreation of the wicked. 06. Return To The Eve
Dreaming eyes
Hope to return As shadows fall onto Distorted paths Delivered from the fetters of light Drifting back into my reality The subconscious deprecates the day In the twilight of my own intellect Dull is my mind Captive of illusion Remaining awake Is just dust Take my soul away into the dark Dreaming a thousand morbid dreams No tomorrow when the wind caress my mind Could I ever return, it would be my doom Obsessed by the nightmare's sound Drifting back into realms of chaos Reality has become my dream I'll be covered by the abyss' ground An endless fall Memories in the light Frontiers of chaos Return to the eve. 07. Danse Macabre
[Instrumental]
08. Nocturnal Fear
Obscurity hides the plateau
Stars darkened at their place Nanna's glowing above Illuminates the silent scenery Seven they are-Yeziti's Call Aeon of night-Eager to prevail From the mountains of dawn they cry The call of the frantic god From the womb of mother earth they scream The wage of creation and sin Seven they are-Yeziti's Call Aeon of night-Eager to prevail "The sleeping lord awakes Tiamat pulls on her chains The blind phantom rages Azag-Thoth Howls Vibrations at the black ethers edge As nocturnal fear penetrates the land Ecstatical celebrations at their zenith The seven sharpen their claws" Winds emerge from the east Deep dark water moves Even the cold moon eclipses When they adore the dog-faced-beast Seven they are-Yeziti's Call Aeon of night-Eager to prevail As they admit the infernal tide The eye on the throne derides The old gods and their tribes In chaos Tiamat laughs pride. Seven they are-Yeziti's Call Aeon of night-Eager to prevail. |
