Tracks



01. Splendor Demon Majesty

Good morning, demon majesty
What a diamond you are
One of the three, the epiphany
The father, Rising star

You give the satanic symphony
Titanic and black
I feel your love, the affinity
I'm glad Your Highness is back

I know, your venom is winning
Master of shade and shame
Will you give us a new beginning
Orchestrate the end?

Open the gates
Thy splendor demon majesty
Hear the doomsday bell
In a grand wonderful fantasy
You wear the pall
Oh, splendor demon majesty
You are my all, a celebration of sin
You are

Good morning, demon majesty
The King of Kings you are
Lead us into seduction
Bringer of truth and charm

In the light of a tortured horizon
Tombs in your eyes
There you stand at
The devil's station
And death draws nigh

Open the gates
Thy splendor demon majesty
Hear the doomsday bell
In a grand wonderful fantasy
You wear the pall
Oh, splendor demon majesty
You are my all, a celebration of sin
You are

Splendor demon majesty
A grand wonderful fantasy
I sold my soul
I sold my soul... to
The sound of 666

02. Under The Ocean

Behind the door
The ocean floor
Beneath the iron surface
There's a hole
The dead they climb
An endless line
And there you are
Night after night

Ominous blue rays
Cemetary waters
Just like lemmings
Glowing spirits

That day of the week now
The heavy fuckin' falling rain
Walkers be gone
Leave the garden of my mind

Deep red, damn drip
Fates clock on minus
Ghosts of Silence
Hands holding fire

Dead girl, black dog
Apparitions in the morning
The room is an ocean
No-one said you were coming

And the Dead shall walk
Up from the lifeless dark
From under my skin
The ocean within

Like drunk they sway
From the salty gray
60 000 souls on parade
Stones align
Clouds sweep by
Soon the bleak and
Forgotten will arrive

03. Astorolus - The Great Octopus

In the folds of mythology
Never died, never born
Demented god, a monstrosity
Oh, you block the sun

Octopus, the point of no return
You are the hunger, the One
There you wait, for moon and man to fall
From the wall of the world

Guardian of Nyx
Epic in the abyss
At the Earthfall
There's a mountain of skulls
You swallow the Earth

Astorolus
Spearhead, beak and tusk
Your arms, like silver in dusk
Into the depths we are thrust
You will swallow us
The great octopus

04. Bridge Of The Blind

Bridge of the blind
Take me somewhere
Away to an unknown land
And from where I was before

What would I find,
If I opened my eyes?
One foot then another
Straight into the bottomless?

Here I stand
On the bridge of the blind
Can't see where I'm going
Or what I leave behind
Almost goodbye
On the bridge of the blind
No sign of summer
On the other side

What would I find,
If I opened my eyes?
Will you be waiting
On the other side?

05. Death's Wheel

In the absence of bible and king
I close my gaze, 'fore one last good spin
Resurrection, sermon, or prey
I'm a Jonah in the throat of the whale

Charon waves, grins from his oar
I am snowblind
I'm the frost of the north
Tomorrow's sun slowly falls to the sea
As the reaper's got his hand on the wheel

Come come closer
The wheel is spinning
Round n' round
I'm so alive!
Tonight the palace bleeds

Heaven or hell
Right or left, life or death
Come come closer
The wheel is spinning
Round n' round

Crucified in the gallery of screams
Another fool, on the carousel of dreams
I licked the stars as an enemy of time
Now I'm here and every second is mine!

Come come closer
The wheel is spinning
Round n' round
I'm so alive!
Tonight the palace bleeds

Heaven or hell
Right or left, life or death
Come come closer
The wheel is spinning
Round n' round

In the absence of bible and king
You live and die for
One last good spin
Resurrection, sermon, or prey
I'm a Jonah in the throat of the whale

06. Black Trinity

Agents of abomination
Trinity of the damned
One devil that kills
One that takes
One that calls me his son

The wave will hit you soon
The ambassadors of doom

Black trinity - Tidal wave
Black trinity - Until we close our days

Black trinity - Set me free
Black trinity - Imagery or reality

Hells disciples
Lords of disaster
From the pits
Marching faster
Flaming angels on burning thrones
In sheols golden semi dome

The wave will hit you soon
The ambassadors of doom

Black trinity - Tidal wave
Black trinity - Until we close our days

Black trinity - Set me free
Black trinity - Imagery or reality

Tyrants of hurt
Nails in the spine
Walking the earth
The dirty divine
Gothic idols in human guise
They keep on truckin'
'til the sparkle dies

Black trinity
Black trinity

07. House Of Doom

Darker than amber
Dark like your bones
Clearer than crystal
In the death of the sun
Built on the ruins of
The black angels tomb
The house of madness
Awake, burning for you

Welcome to the House of Doom
A church of evil
A labyrinth of rooms
We are the children of the moon
We keep the dark alive
In the House of Doom

Like a finger to the gods
The tower it stands
Exhibition of evil,
Monumental and grand
Floor on floor of fear
Temptation, decay
"I'm cold, sinister?
I'm wicked and strange"

Welcome to the House of Doom
A church of evil
A labyrinth of rooms
We are the children of the moon
We keep the dark alive
In the House of Doom

Like a statement of the sick
A mansion in grief
If you walk into the house
You will never leave

Welcome to the House of Doom
A church of evil
A labyrinth of rooms
We are the children of the moon
We keep the dark alive
In the House of Doom

08. The Omega Circle

I had a dream last night, a vision, a prelude?
Outside my body, I was free to do
All things under the sun, and everything I want
My head awake and clear, for everybody to hear
And like the brightest day, it fades away...

Revelation and progress
Thorns to the weak
We are the eve of the ugly
The dawn of the new everything

Here is love, here is sunrise
Assassination of the old
Here's peeling off corrosion
And the killing of the burdons that you have

More cyclones, more witches
Inside the circle and the ring
In the ruins lies the future
Another dimension
Another fling
We are Alpha/Omega
The blessing, the curse
The order in chaos
Execution and birth

In the midnight hour
And your soul's devoured
We go into the mass
Oh your heart is aching
And you feel forsaken
We go to the black mass

I had a dream last night, and I wonder was it true?
I saw a big machine in a velvet castle room
Inside the Doom Club, the spice, the cloak and dagger and the Pentagram
I think I understand

In the midnight hour
And your souls devoured
We go into the mass
Oh your heart is aching
And you feel forsaken
We go to black mass

Oh people, keep the light on
We bring a new sensation
Enjoy the mass
