02. Gateways Of Bereavement Music by Blackheim Lyrics by Lord J. Renkse
I stand as I cry
Mourning in the silent rain Death will light my burden Endless is my sorrow Gateways so dark All these years of dying Gone are dreams of velvet voices I am you, we were one Vast are fields I walk Where sorrow never dies The sky unites with the blackened rain Summon with my tears Now descend on winter wings My withering soul Let me die Gateways of bereavement A temple of guilt Falling deep Embraced in grief My withering soul Let me die Farewell life and all I died for now my time is over on earth Another journey has begun Alone I died, not praying for mercy nor praying for salvation A lonely journey in a darkened dream Time has come to spread my wings Slow... Descending from a silent sky Death comes to take me away And from the gateways you hear me cry... ...I love you... 03. In Silence Enshrined Music by Blackheim Lyrics by Lord J. Renkse
In silence enshrined through ages
A dying beauty on a journey far Fading roses enchants the garden Sleeping, dreaming of my bride In quiescence faces borders the path On the shore of no hope I am stranded Fading roses enchants my grave Sleeping, dreaming of my bride Lift my remains from water violent Unite the body with a serene sky Enlighten my wounds with a healing tongue The portrait is kissed in a solemn night In silence enshrined through ages A rotten beauty on a journey far Blackened roses celebrates my death How I never could reach my bride Putrid faces engulf the path To the shore of no hope, a bridge Blackened roses in the cradle of sleep Whispers: "Our death is eternal" In silence I fall through sorrows A dying lord on an eternal journey Your face is torn and lifeless And the passage is locked now forever Tearful my face borders the path Sleeping, dreaming of my bride And freezing my soul is praying "Take me the way, through the night" 04. Without God Music by Blackheim Lyrics by Lord J. Renkse
Human birds watch the sky
Where dark formations sail Infecting the area of god "JHVA ELOHIM METH" I am god creator of life I am god enchanter of death Death - that now marks you Life - that slowly passes away Screams of fear, dismembering the wind Helpless souls drowning in pain But storms of dawn... A dawn without god My spirit filled with hate sets free The force of the golden dawn Without god Entomb your fear The spirit is free Jhva Elohim Meth Satan laughs Jhva Elohim Meth I raise my fist to the sky Swear the ancient oath of black The lambs shall bleed Eternally bleed God is dead and shall forever be 05.

06. Velvet Thorns (Of Drynhwyl) Music by Blackheim Lyrics by Lord J. Renkse
Ten strings of darkness on a violin sad
I watch the mountains where the frost begins The northern storm is guiding me To the forest Silently the night birds fly Their last scream my eternal dirge Under the full moon a funeral In the forest Still I walk with open wounds but the third is now rising Through the ashes of a dying love a new soul is born I watch the feathers like snow in the winter The angels that fell, so splendid to rape Tall are the shadows that dance before me as they show the way to the dawn An autumn forest that never reach Condemned to sorrow Chasing the Wind / Like a spirit fly Through the Autumn trees / Towards the sky Hoofs are pounding / In the clouds above The Chariot of sorrow / Watch me die Hear the Violin / So sad and blackened Like a Breeze / The songs of Drynhwyl Chasing the wind / Like my spirit dies Dreaming of the Queen / The queen of roses Now they die, pure sorrow flow My soul's funeral, too close to the end Now they die, purest blood pours Forever die, but I must... I must die Through the sky And the forest Follow the wind, go north my child To the purest of winters Go to the forest that never ends There you'll find your fate And to the north I rode, on the coldest of winds I watched the mountains where the frost began Where no angels ever dare to tread Where death is all mine At last I found the throne of bereavement Grim and bleak raised to the sky The velvet thorns of Drynhwyl are mine and so are death and sadness See... My final sacrifice In the trees you will hear my voice ever calling ever falling Ten strings of darkness on a violin sad Flowing tunes on autumn Funeral Ashes spread in the northern storm 07. Tomb Of Insomnia Music by Blackheim Lyrics by Lord J. Renkse
Falling, crying
Sleeping through the ancient winter Evil shadows moving towards the sky Doomed spirits marching in the fields of eternal mist Laughing, crying The autumn turned into the fall of god Behold the ancient sky Clouds of blood Souls cannot sleep Until the throne has been risen Tomb of insomnia Souls cannot sleep And nor can I They fall The heavenly angels Their wings soaked in blood They can't fly A cathedral of splendour They fall So now I can sleep Purest sorrow embrace my soul I can sleep 08.
