Endlessly crawling chaos
A black quivering mass Behind these dirty walls Relentless whispering Eyes burning with hatred Hundreds of them staring Diseased little beings Of unknown origin Waiting and waiting and waiting Whomever finds they way Within these abandoned rooms Of a chapel that was Tempted into sneaking in With a hope to find the tome But what you founds was death Painful and unclean Drank clean from all the blood Your organs their feast Bones stripped of flesh This place your tomb 02. In Charnel Dreams
Something rotten lays beneath
The chilling earthen floor As if the stench has carried With it some distant song In the mourning tome of violins Dissonate and invoking Calling forth terrible dreams From unknown planes Visions of terror entwine With darkenend reality From charnel hallways Come the glowing mists Creeping through the windows Seeping through the stone Walls begin to bleed And the violins go insane Heat of lava, cold of space Eyes sewn shut to see The wounds with dreams The witch unveiled One by one they are cut Strings of the devil's harp Morbid silence falls And only death awaits 03. Unto The Undead Temple
So it befalls us
Unto the Undead Temple To carry on the torch As His chosen mouth Ever to exalt and glorify With a stern command The master of all things Veiled and obscure Ours is to wield The unchained with magick In which all the forms of His divine wrath manifests And to be forever ordained In dead congregation As must the serpent ever Shed it's skin Unto us the glorious conquest In spirit as in flesh To feed upon the carnage And feast upon your souls As the winged beast of night Against the doves Ours is the right To pick clean your bones As reapers we come and reap we shall For who is more ignorant in his stand The man who can not define lightning Or the man who does not respect it? 04. Snares Of Impurity
Priests are weeping
Young women are raped You recall the good life That once was yours Your places of worship Are abodes of suffering Left in a shock of constant pain with fire burning in your bones Thirst so fierce that your tongues Are stuck to the roof of the mouth Weight of guilt tied around your neck Is draining all your strength Children die in their mother's arms This is the day we've waited for Sking and flesh wasting away Where no light would return Impure flames burn in the temples On crumbling abandoned altars Snares of deathand damnation Consuming all in their way Priests have died unpeacefully While searching for mercy All hope is lost 05. Return Of The Rats
I am the coffin spirit
Old ghost of vengeance Cold may be my bones Long since decayed my heart Still here in this crypt My cursed being bound Not even rats have returned Since many centuries But soon i will again Have their hungry company Foolish humans have come To try and rob my graves Let them enter my darkness And break the seal My blades thirst for blood For it is near So their fortune seeking Became my rarest joy Corpses of thieves a fest For the rats have returned 06. The Unspoken Ones
Gigantic carvings
Of the Other gods In the mountainside Of this waking world A cold, darkened land Full of steep black ridges Beyond which nothing Is visible but the sky Moon is waxing gibbous, Two nights before it's full The dreadful carvings glow Under the moon's old eye Come night, pitch-black darkenss Horns concealed by the shadows Howling of the nameless beings Across the cemetery fields Black beings rise again From their hidden nests The ones no one speak of The ones no one know Come night, pitch-black darkenss Horns concealed by the shadows Howling of the nameless beings Across the cemetery fields 07. The Shunned Angel
Legacy of your creator
Made you blind to the world To think the only purpose to exist Is to wither in his spiritless light All the days accounted for Seeking the love of thy father Ensured of your greatest illusion The heavenly paradise Embrace the Shunned One First angel of true knowledge The one your jealous creator Thought to have beaten Pray for the true power Which shall awaken the soul And open His dark kingdom Which lies deep in your heart For it is prince Lucifer Nay, the uncrowned King! Who guides man with wisdom And secrets of the ancient art Hail Satan - the adversary First to question god's folly For thiss is the righteous path The gospel of truth! 08. Inside The Demon's Maze
Inside te demon's maze
Trapped in the void that is known To exist between life and death Where no common soul can dwell Where winds forever blow Only from the north And each sign carved in stone Is an epitaph Inside the demon's maze Searching for the gate Accompanied only by despair And the mad flutes tone Followed not by the shadow of being But by a being of the shadow Unable to defeat life or reach death In the cursed eternity 09. Kingdom Below
Waking from a dream
In the middle of the night Glow of the frozen moon Gently caressing my face Hearing voices from afar Beginning to chant I rise from the resting place Only to realize my feet The decaying ground I look and see above me Nothing but murky soil Yet beneath me i see The starless sky ablaze As above so below Yet everything here is twisted A tormented netherworld Filled with agonizing terror Crowned with my own entrails A morbid king i am made Pillars rise with corpses piled In monumental worship Of all thet which must die Chilling winds attempting to sing Yet only wails emerge Crashing at my maddening senses Do not touch the familiar floor Something cold and slimy Reaching ot for me Stench of Mala Fide Hands pulling me underneath Below 10. Funerary Descent
The sinister witch-fires gleam
Against a sky swirling out of form Embracing the Undead Temple Have their bleak flames flicered Casting no living shadows To remind of a natural place To dance upon the walls and ground Or to draw but nightmarish figures Funerary worshippers crawling Almost as a heap of flesh Into the postal chambers Enshrined with ancient symbols To descend unto Black Earth Where bones adorn all Neither dead or with beating hearts Are they, called by His voice Gathering of hopeless souls No longer able to flee Flocking onwards Down there where madness dwells In the city of eternal death In the shadow of the howling ziggurats |
