Un tas d'?uvres de la culture mondiale mélanges avec des clinquants! Entrez donc! Er vous en allez regretter! À vos risques et périls! Vous êtes prévenus et bienvenus! 02. What They Seek Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Led forth by the Silver Star
Ship of Unknowledge sails out of grey void Driven astray by the Winds of Comprehension They seek in delusive seas Island of Sleep, the Oblivion shores They seek their God to save their souls To save them from themselves "Obey! Don't think! Stay calm! Marry and reproduce! Obey! Don't think This is your God! Obey! Don't think! Stay calm! Marry and reproduce! Obey! Don't think This is your God!" You think you differ Despise their hollow minds And their pathetic affairs You found the way You're Disciple of Truth You need a mentor Who will take your hand And wisely show you the path Come near, my friend, stand close to me Attend to faint whispers Get rid of thoughts, visualize The Pyramid of Light We lose our form, ascend so high So far beyond dreaming But don't look back, just don't look down Or you'll be drawn to Earth "And one journey leads yet into another, So too doth all life continue onward... Within one seed lie the secrets of the universe, Within one cell the secrets of life, and within thee The secrets of the mystery... Thou art the key!" We drift through Nowhere In nebulas dark soothing haze And stars dance in silent parade Dim "Light Divine" Left behind in tremendous disgrace No match for this majesty But this is not for you The Universe we travel is mine You cannot return here again Reject your arrogance You never shall find what you seek So get back and join your herd in their Quest 03. Ars Compilata Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Ave atque vale
Exitum asta probat Tempus edax rerum In aeternum Benevobis Stultica beata Alea jacta est Delenda est Carthago Freuet auch des Wahren Scheins Euch des ernsten Spieles Kein lebendiges ist eins Immer ists ein Vieles Wolkenzug und Nebelflor Erhellen sich von Oben Luft im Laub und Wind im Rohr Und alles ist zerstoben Dum vivimus vivamus Dum spiro Spero Hominis est errare Nil premanent sub sole 05. Lineage Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Since the times of the shattered Globe
When gods emerged to create the life All races beget men of war And temper them in deadly strife In war or peace, prosperity or carnage We tread our path, a mortal or a god There is no force to overcome this lineage To break these bonds, the lineage of blood Time flows, the aeons pass And yet there's much blood to spill These lands are covered with scars Scars that cannot be healed Gran Kain shouted with great pride to all the world and instilled spirit into the creatures of his own image. However, the result was terrible. His creatures were weak, stupid, sly, and cowardly. All the other gods despised Gran Kain's creatures. Overcome by the shame of his failure, Gran Kain abandoned his creatures and went into hiding for a time. These creatures are called humans. And the war goes on. 06. Emphaty Mire Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Each of you has a purpose bestown upon you by the force you worship.
Each of us wishes to be free of such force. Few strive to become that force. I woke up only to see Mystic haze thickening around Cannot move, I must Break the spell that poisons the Spring The Spring of Life that brought me to this state... "How fortunate the man with none"... Memini mirabili hora Lux veni, ante lucem me I tried to change my Secret Path, I tried to change my way But empathy and pity rose Compassion made me sway So slimy tentacles of decadence began to grow (Lux veni) And when I thought I've reached the light They've drawn me down below (Ante lucem me) See these low lives? They reach for me like I am the light myself. They adore me. They deserve to give their useless lives to me. Thirsting for the spark to guide me out of this Mire I ignite the souls of those devoted Lame tiny bizarre insects crawl down in the Mud only worth of being scorched I would sacrifice anyone and anything (Light them up) Just to break out of this asylum Thoughts poach in sticky web spinned by (Burn them down to ashes) Shades of regret and guilt, ghosts of pain Light them up (Burn them down), dispel the dark (Speak) Seek the key (They shall heed) Unseal the way (Teach) They shall heed (You'll ascend) They'll follow you (Burn) They shall burn (Like moths) in sacred Afterglow Will this pyre be enough to light my way? Will the immolation of that miserable swarm bring me back to where I desire to be Or do I need more of them? Shall I ascend at last? 07. Indoctrination Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Empty life, empty shell
Your existence has no purpose anymore Bleak millennia are yours to rot Wondering aimlessly With no hope, no warmth inside No light ahead You will meet the ones who care You'll meet us We shall give you hope We'll give you strength We'll bathe you in our love We'll pull you out of your abyss We'll make you one of us You'll feel like you've been reborn to the brave new world The universe of light Where the angels sing You've found your place at last Here you see all around Smiling faces, everyone is happy here We will help you wash away the past Here you will realize That your hollow futile life was full of sin Now erase it, wipe it clean... Wipe it clean... You will learn, step by step We must labour to fulfill the Higher Plan Our mission is to save mankind You will strive, working hard Your endeavors are important to the Cause And the Cause... The Cause is everything! "The complexities of life do distract and disorient, and thee shall know the turmoil of fear and uncertainty... He that hath not foundation shall in wandering suffer... While he that hath sanctuary shall know peace and stability... Discover thee the builder, that thee may light these eyes... For rooted in he lies the knowledge of structure... From encircling waters wrest thee the works of stones... As thee make sacrifice twixt all the four corners, thy labor shall not be in vain, for the opaque yielded from the stone will be transformed, and thee shall behold the radiant light... Thus may one discover a haven, and assuredly travel onward... Thus may one discover thyself, and assuredly travel through life..." We shall guide you You shall follow On your heavenly path to Your sincere and so pure sacrifice 08. Inner You Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Descend from your virtue peaks
It's so unappealing, so depressive Stop radiating your distilled Perfection Get back from your depths of sin Sweet and magnetic yet utterly hollow Don't talk to me, don't look at me Just let me go at last I recall your pity and sorry When I did not believe Tears that fell when you saw my sorrow Proved you won't forgive You look so calm when I'm on my knees Begging for mercy, praying and crying I wonder what the hearts of the angels Are made of And as you're hugging me Trying to bring my soul to peace I imagine how I split your chest Exposing what's inside Real you? Light, purest light enchanting Twisting the mind, eliminating the hope I realize I'm unworthy Dim filthy light hiding Something I don't want to see Eyes soon to explode - cover it back! Conceal! Never ever try to imagine this again... Ever! Be happy with what you have and never look inside Remember! Never! I'm falling back out of killing sight Holding to you as the anchor of real Never again to question your angelic Nature I'm falling back just to see you smile So comprehending, so sympathetic You comfort me, you make me live So why am I so scared? I recreate bliss of unknowing Icon of your eyes I celebrate self written story Of angel in disguise 09. 93 Shattered Runes Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Hail the grain of dying world
We stand on the edge of reason When the rose clouds conceal The exhausted sun dog hail 93 dead sunwheels buried deep But what ends when the symbols shatter? Is this impure? We said destroy at the dawn of new age We have sworn to keep the fire burning We shall survive the deadly June And proclaim the rebirth of the world that has passed True - the guilty have no pride And their only reward is the scorn But when runes and men collide The future is born We said destroy at the dawn of new age We have sworn to keep the fire burning We shall survive the deadly June And proclaim the rebirth of the force that we are Hail the grain of dying world Those who keep the fragments together at the wall of sacrifice We take care and control 10. MDB Music & lyrics by Rakoth
Sear me, doomed lover
With your catching feathers Transcending the black heart romance When the snow in my hand The return of the beautiful Is the prize of beauty, the dark caress God is alone in his black voyage On a sea to suffer in So like the gods of the sun we turn loose the swans Under your wings and into your arms Silent dance, the grief of age The songless bird, le cerf malade Songs of darkness, words of light Grace unhearing the thrash of naked limbs The Isis script Erotic literature The sexuality of bereavement Base level erotica Gather me up forever The dreadful hours at your river Raven and the rose in the scarlet garden The whore, the cook and the mother Heroin chic, Apocalypse woman The deepest of all hearts My hope the Destroyer, the child of Eternity A kiss to remember - she is the Dark From darkest skies all swept away It will come, the Edenbeast Symphonaire Infernus et Spera Empyrium Vast choirs The cry of mankind For my fallen angel, for you Der Uberlebende is the crown of sympathy Deeper down to the fever sea Of the bitterness and the bereavement Two winters only of your shameful heaven I cannot be loved And I walk with them Into the lake of ghosts To remain tombless here in the throat And my fury stands ready On thy raven wings I am the bloody earth See the light At the end of the world On the night He died Love's intolerable pain The blood, the wine The rose, the blue lotus One of beauty's daughters A cruel taste of winter |
