We came out of the night
Bloodied but unbowed from days We always will remember And by the morning light We look upon the risen dawn The day of our creation I see my enemies And I know the way, the way I will defeat them And in such days as these I see the circle turning to completion These days will never come again These days will never come again These days will never come again These days will never come again 02.

Baraka
Baraka Baraka Baraka This is the work, the Wise man will see Thrice great Hermes, we call to thee Distillation, revelation, look within, fire! We saw the light, we saw the light, Matter! Between the moon and the sun, the moon and the sun Oh Ouroborous, surround us The Lion consuming the sun This is the work, the great work Conjiunctionis Mysterium We saw the light, we saw the light, Matter! Between the moon and the sun, the moon and the sun Baraka Baraka Baraka Baraka We saw the light, we saw the light, Matter! Between the moon and the sun, the moon and the sun 04. God Of The Grain Music by Amebix
Through dark Egyptian soil I rise
And raise my arms up to the sky I am the life that never ends I am the Logos called again My story ever was the same I was killed by broken men And on the third day rose again I am the God within the grain I am the God of the grain, I'm the God of the grain I am the God of the grain, I live, I die, and I? And so this Cross shall be my sign For I was here before all time I am the center of the flame Every age shall know my name I am the God of the grain, I'm the God of the grain I am the God of the grain, I live, I die, and I? Mithras, Dionysius, Osiris, Adonis Mithras, Dionysius, Osiris, Jesus And I am born again And I am born again! 05. Visitation Music by Amebix
At war with myself, and took it to the street
Another grey afternoon of the soul Infinite repetition with no end in sight Karmic Debts from another life I am starting to remember A little here, a little there, Mitrochondrial memory Up the twisting ladder I recognized you instantly Although we've never met, something in your eyes From so many thousands years ago I was never young, and neither were you Who the hell are you? You know who I am Are you who I think you are? Yes I am here! You know me! Here I am! I was half asleep or was I half awake? Pressure from my chest, impossible to breathe I forced my eyes to look And you are all I see Speaking in thoughts, boring into me (I've lost it) You wanted to make a deal, so here I am, well? I didn't mean it, this is not what I asked for Well, you said it, and now I am here! Be careful what you wish for I am here! You know me! Here I am! I know you! Be careful what you wish for Infinite repetition? 06. Sonic Mass Part 1 Music by Amebix
Well I remember well, I turned to you and said
I am for the living, let the dying bury the dead Oh you Godless men, I see you're here again Enemies and friends when will we be released Little kid: Daddy, it's getting dark, I'm a bit frightened 07. Sonic Mass Part 2 Music by Amebix
I see a burning cross upon a desert hill
Beneath a crescent moon a silhouette is rising I see the ghost of men who passed this way before One thousand years ago so full of their convictions I see the congregation mass! I hear the call to prayer mass! We all were brothers once and shared the secrets of the stars One thousand years ago and now we die for this black blood I see the congregation mass! I hear the call to prayer mass! I see the congregation mass! I hear the call to prayer mass! 08. Here Come The Wolf Music by Amebix
The Legion left, and with them took the dying light
Once more the land became a wilderness of supertitious night And from the forest deep came tales of children reared by wolves The mother raped and left in shame whilst in the womb They dreamed revenge They are murderous, and they come for us Between the beast and man we die Here come the wolf They are murderous, and they come for us Between the beast and man we die Here come the wolf A message came, a plea for help against the beast But no-one came and night on night the forest rang With chilling cries, as decimation took its course Oh Gods have mercy of our souls, with every night the terror comes See how they run They are murderous, and they come for us Between the beast and man we die Here come the wolf They are murderous, and they come for us At night we hear the children cry Here come the wolf 09. The One Music by Amebix
Before the Earth was born we travelled from the stars
We fell like comets from the universal mind We fused the elements within the rising sun We are the north, the south, the east, the west, the one! All sense of separation, this is your illusion All sense of segregation, just leading to confusion We watched the mighty fall and Empires turned to dust The cities crumbling into the raging Sea We entered into life that took the human form We are the air, the water, the earth, the fire! All sense of separation, this is your illusion All sense of segregation, just leading to confusion All sense of separation, this is your illusion All sense of separation, this is your illusion All sense of segregation, just leading to confusion All sense of separation, this is your illusion We are the one Spoken: Oh man look upon your Works and despair The fundamental essence ever was the same Born of our mother moon, our father sun above us all days These principles ever were the same, we are in everything and all is part of you As it is above, so it is below Open up your eyes, stand at the center of the earth and look around you The north, the east, the south, the west The water, the air, the earth, the fire! 10. Knights Of The Black Sun Music by Amebix
Desperation took us down
Uneasy lies, the head That wears the crown You can't see it I saw the mourners passing by These wicked men Beneath the sulfurous skies Oh what can it mean? Every bell is silent here The hands of clocks are bound And time itself has stopped Can you feel it? The birds are frozen in their flight Trapped within the thunder light A storm is rising A voice within the winter halls Some great secret from these careless lips will fall A star on our horizon See you gods forgotten son Lies broken and alone Searching for a father,he has never known.... From Dresden's blazing skies To the bloody wash of dawn I saw the beast arise And climb upon the throne And fallen angels weep And long for peace, for home Whilst far beneath the ice they sleep These dark knights of the black sun And on the stormlashed mountain high I found the hidden book On the altar of the wretched prince of lies And I broke apart the graven seal And these seven words I read Rejoice, the great god fear is dead So from the rooftops call it out You where always free Yes from the rooftops call it out And ever may you be |
