Cold the Blood of an Angel, cold the Blood in my Heart
Never stand between us or lose the Mystic Art Die cursing the Shadows, die cursing the Light Everything is changing except the Will to Fight By the Rising of the Sun, you will understand this Night In the Land where your Father died Into the Mighty Arms of Death Into the Darkness we fall Into the Mighty Arms of Death Into the Darkness we fall Cold the Blood of an Angel, cold the Blood of the Sky Everything is Fated, the Gods to me won't lie Die cursing the Shadows, die cursing the Light Everything is wasted, except the Will to Fight By the Rising of the Sun, you will understand this Night In the Land where your Father died Into the Mighty Arms of Death Into the Darkness we fall Into the Mighty Arms of Death Into the Darkness we fall Spirit Avenge Fury Face the Flames. Come forth rise, take off your chains and fly into the Sky Stake the Viper, Kill in turn Fly, make an Oath to the Sky Win your Kingdom, win the Fame of a God! Cold the Blood of an Angel, cold the Blood in my Heart Everything is Raging, the Damned will choose their Mark Kill, Kill without warning, run the Blood of the Free Fear lives on a Mountain and Ravages our Dreams By the Rising of the Sun, you will understand this Night of Fire Into the Mighty Arms of Death To the Sky we never left Uncertain Hero you'll win the Day Violent accounting, Fortune's array! Into the Mighty Arms of Death Into the Darkness we fall Into the Mighty Arms of Death Into the Darkness we fall we fall we fall In Darkness Descend! 02. Hymn To The Gods Of Night
Gods of Night, Gods of Death
I release thee Now from Bondage go forth upon my Quest Gods of Night, Gods of Death I beseech thee Strike with Power, steal the Dragon's Breath Know this, he was mutilated when she buried him To cripple his spirit and make it unbearable for you! 05. The Voice as Weapon
She's the Goddess of the Silent Water waiting
Siren on the Rocks the Heir of Crime Child of the Sun, Stormwitch of Burning Black is the Foam of your Birth Fasten on the Cloak of Silver Dreaming Drain the Poison Cup or Race the Sky Smile on the Sun, you are the Savior Justice is not Matricide! The voice as weapon, The voice as weapon Kill from without, Kill from within Where the Sunlight tastes like Rage Poison on the Sun reveals the Hydra Burning on the Sword I know is red Smile on the Son's Fateful endeavor Now she will see by disguise Recognize the sound of Silver Screaming Slaughtering the Nations of thy Soul I am the one, I own the Power Holiness sleeps at the eyes The voice as weapon, the voice as weapon Kill from without, Kill from within Where the Sunlight tastes like Rage! Kill this wanton pair Or Race the Sky! Keep your Courage and now be a Man Black Robed Angels of Death you'll Command You may Kill her and not suffer blame Heed the Words of Apollo's Oracle She's the Goddess of the Silent Water waiting Bathing on the Shores of Murder's Wine Smile on the Son, I am returning Back to the Home of my Birth Blessings on the God's Light Shining The Crown of Victory I'll wear in time I have the force no one can tame us Hermes will be our guide! The voice as weapon, the voice as weapon Kill from without, Kill from within Where the Sunlight tastes like Rage! Break the Silence, break the Spirit In the Palace, Blood will flow For the Shadow of thy Father Bringing Judgment, Blood will flow. 06. Moira
Tears of Blood, Clouds hide the Sun
The Day goes Black in my arms Pain and Love the Science of the World Tears of Blood fill my Heart Dry your eyes the Son will rise tomorrow Born in Blood all must fall Kill her, kill her! Mountains arise, the Cities die Into the Seas of Blood, Scars of War remain By the Power of the Will and Mind Drown my Soul within your lips Into the Seas of Blood, Scars of War remain The Scars of what might have been Seas of Blood, Clouds hide the Sun The Day goes Black in my arms. 08. The Wine Of Violence
Like the Talon of Mars I'll tear right through the Wall
Thunder and Lightning in Power the Gods reveal all In the Black where the Siren Reigns Ravaging the Spirits of the Brave The wine of violence, breaks our control See the Madness, Burning Angels Glow The wine of violence, I steal your Soul See the Madness in me grow I am the Wound and the Scar and the Spear come to Life Sacred Red Son of the Sun, torn to pieces imbibed In the Black where the Darkness rains Death Drowning in the currents of your shame The wine of violence, takes your control Sin and Madness Burning Kingdoms whole The wine of violence, I steal your Soul See the Madness in me grow Fight me you coward, Thief of Stolen Days Joy is Destruction, driving me insane to Fight Win the Silence of the Damned, Holy Order, High Command Eagle tearing Flesh from Bone Golden Whirlwind, bare the Stars we fly, Fly! Let the Death Mist close your eyes! The wine of violence, takes all control See the Fire Burning down below The wine of violence, I steal your Soul See the God in me Enthroned! All Dead, Silent and alone No more Savior carved in Stone All Dead nobody will Weep Icy Water, Death runs Deep Vengeance is Mine I regain my Halls. 09. A Token Of my Hatred
I bring Vengeance!
I ride the Severed Seven Winds of Time From the Corner of the World Last Holy Warrior, Fire in my eyes There is Hatred in my Soul Great God of the Seven Seas, Great God of the Sky Hear me now as I ride down this Wind A King of Eternity to the last, when the first Stars arise I have come claiming my Victory to the End When the Carrion must die Inside the Palace, Avernus awaits Here the floor runs red with Blood This bitter blessing demanded by my Oath Lord Apollo hear my cry! Great God of the Seven Seas, Great God of the Sky Hear me now as I ride down this Wind A King of Eternity to the last, with a Sword by my side I have come proclaiming this Victory to the House And a butchered Father's cries Ride the Wind Snake through the Air See the Cauldron of Blood Burning there From the Dark side let the Child arrive To Ride the Rings of the Sky on the Day when all Tyrants die! I bring Vengeance! Life unfolds into the Sin of War Cold and Proud I Praise the Sky Here I stand with the Gods Broken Sword Raised in Might Against the World we Avenge Our Father, Victory Now ! Hear me cry, the King of Eternity to the End When all Violence dies I am yours fighting for Victory to the End When the last Tyrant dies Chain of Violence, a forsaken Crown Lay the Dust of your Future in Shrouds For the last time the Child arrives To right the Sins of his Home To the End when all Tyrants Die ! And the Clouds of Doom Arise To Kill the Night We Wept And the Dark Mist did appear. Through the Night We Wept 10. Summoning The Powers
Spirit of the Air Remember
Spirit of the Earth Hear my Prayer Spirit of the Seas I Summon thee To the One who has no Name Veiled is the Night, bright are the Eyes of the Dead Fire and Water cleanse purify Great Spirit of Power, hear now my Commands Grant every Wish of Blood Blood! Gods of the Dead feel my Rage, enter the Circle of my Sacrifice Take on the World, free the Plagues with the Smoke of your Word Dark is the Vision that Burns in my Heart Kill from within, Conjure the Seven who stand on the Mountains of Dawn I am the Flame Spirit of the Air Remember Black Gods of the Sun Cry out to me, steal the Thrones and the Powers of Him Black is the Vision of all we despise Slide on the Wind, Great is the Power that comes in the Back of the Night I am the Flame Spirit of the Air Remember Black Gods of the Sun, cry to me Spirit of the Sea, know thy suffering Black Gods of the Sun, hear my Cry! Gods of the Silence, Gods of the Damned Offer no Mercy, withdraw your Hand Gods of the Silence, Gods of the Sand Shorn of your Glory, Kill on Command Gods of the Dead, feel my Rage, enter the Circle of my Sacrifice Take on the World, She who Reings in the Palace of Night Dark is the Vision that Burns in my Heart Gilde down the Stars, feel my Hate Outcasts of Heaven we meet in the City Below, I am the Flame Spirit of the Air. Remember Black Gods of the Sun, cry to me Spirit of the Earth, know thy suffering Black Gods of the Sun, hear my cry! 11. Flames Of thy Power
I rise on the Mountain, I do what the Gods disdain
Impassive accounting, the Ghost of your Yesterday Fear grips my Soul as I lie awake Hole in the Sky for I die Flames of thy power You rise with the Blood Flames of thy power I worship the Sun No one remembers standing proudly Flames of thy power to walk in the Sun like Gods The cries of Forgiveness, the Soldiers of Fallen Grace The Hope of Tomorrow, the Ghost of your Yesterdays Fear grips my Soul as I lie awake Hole in my Heart for my Crime Flames of thy power I worship the Sun Flames of thy power you rise with the Blood No one remembers standing proudly Flames of thy power They walk in the Sunlight Blind Oh, what can I do... I see the silent water closing in now Blood of Yesterday, crossing the Silent Waterways I Rise Into the Skies of Human Snow, hammer the wind to Your Throne of Truth I see Him Shining, watch the Sin pouring down from me! Damn you All. I rise on the Mountain, I see through the Passage Ways My Heart cold and pounding, the Ghost of my Yesterdays This is my Soul washed by the God's Will Daughter of Zeus hear my Cry Flames of thy power I rise with the Sun Flames of thy power They Hunger for Blood No one remembers standing proudly Flames of thy power to walk in the Sunlight Shrine. 12. Arms Of Mercury
I raise my head I close my eyes
The Statue stares the Apparition smiles Am I here living in Mystery to the last When all Gods must die... I am yours, Pain lives inside of me To the End when the Final Rain must Fall... Away... I raise my head I say Farewell The Solemn Fears come and Crystallize Blackened Eyes, Shadows of Misery To the End when all Gods must die I am yours, Death walks inside of me For the last, for my Requiem Again I Fear the arms of Mercury Surround me From the Corners of the World I say goodbye I know the End is coming soon From the Margent of the World I say Farewell I know the pain that I've caused I know the Lives that were Lost In this Dark Time the Eyes deny to wash all this Blood from my Hands In the End will we all pay this Price I Fear the arms of Mercury Surround From the Corner of the World I wave goodbye I know the End is coming soon From the Cauldron of the World I say Farewell I know the Pain that I've caused I know the Lines that were drawn In the Dark Time will the Gods design to wash all this Blood from my Hands Or in the End will we all pay this price. 13. By The Gods
By the gods Black Slaughter
By the gods You're King By the gods Blind Justice By the gods We Sing All shall heel, all shall hear! By the gods Your Father By the gods Your Soul By the gods In Fire By the gods You're owned All shall heel, all shall hear! Gods and Devils screaming out their Final Warning Holy Fire from the Sky Violent Mourning Burns the Rays of Olympus While the Blood drips from their eyes And the Crime shakes the Hall, "are you ready" When you see the Liar Burn Yet the Kanons are the Snakes of his Torment, at the Naval of the Earth I see the Sons of the Crown of the New Covered in Bloodlust and shame I feel the Whip of the Great Son of Zeus Lashing my Honour and Place Lightning won't remove the Crown We hold True I see the Face of the God, I see the Face of the God on his Black Soul I see the Madness as I look into your eyes Impaling Terror unfit for this Shrine Riding in Thunder the Murdering Rain Leave this Shrine and the Halls of the Mighty Go and Haunt the Slaughterhouse! I see the Sons of the Crown of our New King of the Heavens of Shame I see the tricks of the Lords We once Ruled I see the Face of the God, I see the Face of the God on his Black Soul Let the Goddess of Fortune decide who'll never return Will the Day break instead of the Night, the Victim returns In the Silence of the City, I await Fortune or Fire Dear Athena be my Healer, I am here knowing that Life may never return And when you Die you'll meet the World's Suffering Plunge into the Black Night Sky We are in Force, We are called as One All as One Holding the Ancient Right of Blood. 15. The Judgment Of The Son
Goddess of all the Silent Wastes, thou are not found unkind
There's no Black and White, Thy Truth is not so keen Although the Crime is Great, withhold your Sovereign Blaze Rise up rise again after the ring of fire My friendship's not feigning, your cause is my own Rise up rise again after the ring of fire We'll beat them in Sunlight on this Day of Task Gods and all Athenians, Proud Black Erinyes Brook no Anarchy, nor bear a Tyrant's Rule Maintain in balance Fear the Guardian of Grace Rise up rise again after the ring of fire A Godless suppliant Burning in Chains Rise up Ride the Wind, this is the End of Silence The moment of Never on this day of wrath. 16. Hammer The Winds
Gods of All behold this Vow
I see the Flames before my eyes I will employ your grasp To lead and not to blame But I will rise with the Sun Writhing Mask of Desire Hammer the winds to Fury See your Life's Blood leave Burning in the Darkness Where We now shall lead All of Us in Power on this Night Hammer the winds to Fury Bleach the Darkness Blind Burning in a Circle Crowned in Deadlocked Pride Honoured We Stand, We are All Above All Above In despairing Light We Shine. 18. The Fields Of Asphodel
For so long I did wade in the River of Violence
Trail the Long Night Haunting Face where's the meaning Old enough to know the Signs So long Fated Life Valiant Warrior tonight say Farewell. 19. When The Legends Die
Father's Eyes staring in the Blackness of the Morning
Mother cries echoing the Shadows of the Sunrise There you stood arms cloaked in Darkness where the Shades have gone Wave goodbye to all that you know and all you'll ever be Where will I run, the Faces are so cold How will I Rule with Arms against the Sky Where will I go when all has been disowned Lord of this World, leave my Soul alone Troy is Burning, say Farewell hail Light the Fire of a Thousand Days war Pain and Slaughter, even Gods can lie When the legend die, cry like Rain Steal the Wind, gather all the Evening's Suns so blind Where's your Soul forged in the Mist of Dawn in time will rise To Damn the Gods this is no Illusion there are Ways to bear, my share To Kill them all, Blacker than a Thousand Vows when Water Rises How will I run, the Faces are so cold How can I stand Eyes against the Night Where will I go when all is said and done I leave it behind, Graces of the World Kill the Father, Kill the Son hail Kill each other work is done war Pain is nothing, even Gods can Lie When the legend die, Die for me! Oh, I will not Rise again you know Oh, I will be Torn on Bloody Ground! How will I run, the Faces are so cold How will I race Clouds against the Sky I am Burning say Farewell hail Light the Fire of a Thousand Lives war Pain and Slaughter, even Gods will Lie When the legend die! 20. Anemone
Zeus my Father hold your Son
His Seas have all run dry The spark of Life fades with the Dawning for those who wait Under the Blackest Skies, my arms are open wide Will you deny your Hand in Shaping, for those who know. 23. Resurrection Day
Fire and Water, victims change
Seasons learning, nothing's gained Now the time has come Apparition waiting Before the Hours of Doom approaching lies In these Hallowed Halls Sanctuary reach me Before the Hour of Doom's approaching Lights And the Dark Gods awaken into the Sun And Their Darkness is frozen fortunate one They will not heal, they now will follow The Sacred Light and Sound! Angry now but you are not beaten down Whispered Wind the Verdict leaves him unbound In the flowing course of Time a greater Honour for thee Will be found on the Shores of my Country Power surge echoes down from the Sky Raise your fist, cultivate Noble Lives Clothe Them now in garments dyed Matching Gold of the Sky Bold enough to sleep where They lie Rise up rise again after the ring of fire You'll see Them recover Their Honour and Grace Rise up ride the Wind this is the End of Violence Believe in the Sunlight on this Chosen Night I'm returning slowly to the ground It's resurrection day Returning slowly to the ground! Rise up rise again after the Reign of Terror The Skies are proclaiming the City is Blest Rise up ride the Wind after the ring of fire The Moment of Never on this Frozen Night. The Curse Walks among you. Rise up rise again after the Reign of Terror You'll see Them recover the Garden of Life Rise up ride the Wind after the ring of fire The Bond of the Goddess Guards this Chosen Night Rise up ride the Wind after the ring of fire The Skies are proclaiming the City is Blest Rise up ride the Wind after the Reign of Terrord With Fortune inside us on this Dawn of Night We're Alive the Gods arrive, the Cracks of Doom roll by Steer the course that Pallas walks don't let the Violence fall Under the Spell of Darkness or Light We are proven now Fortune rides on Our Side. Descend to Paradise it's narrow, Virgin Bright Endless Night Guide the Rings of the Sun, now We are All Forms in One! Victory in the Sunlight of Union Above and Below Sacrosanct Lords of the Skies, Revere the Queen of Remorse Wielding the Signs of Grace, the Signs of Faith And Their Darkness Aligns with Your Rays! Victory, in the Sunlight of Union We Stand! I'm returning slowly to the ground It's Resurrection Day Returning slowly to the ground! To the ground! |
