Intro..
02. Visions of Gehenna
Under the pale moon rides The Morningstar
With keys to the astral gates and mystic doors Black rays of night hold his wings aloft Black potions brewing in his afterthoughts Armies crying out his name Whips lashing out in pain The hordes of death are various Until we kill the Sagittarius Fly through the flames as the sun explodes Violate the truth that the seeker knows Fear seized the heart of the angel spawn Savour the taste of the final dawn Armies crying out his name Whips lashing out in pain The hordes of death will bury us And we'll kill the Sagittarius 03. Mirror Messiah
Tears from the fountains of treason
Wept by the deities slain by fiendish fray Years lost in counterfeit reason Burned from the secrets wise men dare not say False tongue of mirror messiah Luring the breath of life from its mortal coil Death chant of martyr pariah Bury the faithful flock beneath the sod and soil Souls burn in pain of salvation Betrayed by promises cast by traitor's throat Conquer the age of the nations Cast down this epoch to the lord of goat Reject the mirror messiah Sever the hand that sows slavery to our race Defective martyr pariah Slave to the elder god, die in dark disgrace 04. No Life King
Fast asleep on his throne made from mortal bone
In the crypts lies the No Life King But his slumber will break and his carnage he'll take The slayer of man things When the armies of night with his powers unite And the moon is as black as his blood Then the rivers will boil as the undead they toil Ashes where man once stood Send a plague on the land with a touch of his hand Smash the gates of the cities and towns Steal away with their souls to his castle below We'll make our last stand So go hide in the sun when the war is begun Run away from the No Life King For his armies are vast and his talons are fast He'll have your blood to drink 05. Celephaïs
[Instrumental]
06. Twilight Grave
Made a pact with the twilight demons
Seemed the only way Drew the circle of salt and semen Held the daggers raised In the deluge of smoke and cinder Burned the shadow's eyes In the mist hellfires did wither Held me hypnotized Going down today Gonna die today Into my twilight grave Mind exploded with thoughts of terror Glimpsed the final days In the vision I beheld my error But it melted away I ate the flesh of unborn babies I drank the blood of the dead The lines were cast when the twilights changed me And left a price on my head So they sent the seers to hunt me With their powers of old Felt the weight of the hammer of evil Crushing down on my soul Never knew what would consume me I'm condemned to die The mist conceals what fate it feeds me What it can never lie I'm gonna die today I'm going down today Into my twilight grave 07. The Worm Ouroboros
The Lords of the Demonland
The slayers of the Witch-born kings The conquerors of the Ghoulish hand The keepers of the diamond rings The wielders of the silver spears Their ships flying silken sails They search for the Worm Ouroboros It eats its own tail The riders of the golden griffins The gods grant their every whim They wish that the Witchlords be reborn To kill them all again 08. Cauldron Born
Raise your spears to the sky
Suffer no pain when it's your turn to die Fall but to rise once again To defile your ancestors, murder your kin The crawling chaos of old Will course through your blood as it corrupts your soul Eternal life is our prize You'll see the Black Cauldron etched in our eyes Armies of Arawn unite The slaughter we serve, for The Death Lord we fight Mute but swords tell our tales Carved in our enemies' bones and entrails The Cauldron Born is our name Fall by her side and you'll become the same One taste of her cast-iron will Gives strength to the heart and the hand for the kill 09. Wintermute
The wasps have smashed their nests again
Stinging me solemnly for my sins The winter of my disgrace A failed god for the failure race Death rides the cold that bleeds from my eyes Nothing you can do will make me change my ways I will hate you all until the stars decay With darkness all around the ice consumes my speech Condemning me to dreams that are just beyond my reach Take me to the one who can make my world complete Build the bridge across the void beneath my feet Reaching for the realms that mere mortals may not know And trampling on the tracks laid softly in the snow |
