1. Souls of the Evil Departed
Floating Away Within Dreams From A Thousand Worlds,My Soul Has Left The Spheres Of Man, For All Time... The Rest Of Me, The Rotten Limbs And My Bones (Are All) Dwelling Within The Sacred Garden Of Grief While My Mind Is Adrift Upon The Seas Of Starvation A Tombstone Is Raised To Mark (That) I Am Not Forgotten I Remember Faintly, Like Whispers From Beyond All Time The Reasons For My Death But Reasons Are Part Of Life And I Am Forever More, Part Of Death Part Of Death Part Of Death I Greet You Welcome To The World Of The Evil Departed The Neverending Landscape Of Damnation We Were Sowing The Seeds Of Blasphemy Consumed By The Burning Flame Of Eternity We Were Sowing The Seeds Of Blasphemy Souls Of The Evil Departed All Dwell Here In A Number Beyond Counting Souls Of The Evil Departed Souls Of The Evil Departed The Memories Are Slowly Eating Away At My Shredded Sanity The Yerning For Life Has Vanished, Nothing Left To Live For In This Void Of Lost Souls And Insanity My Existence Is A Mockery
2. At the Gates
It Is Cold Out Here And Lonely Is My Journey, I Walk TheTrail Of Broken Souls, The Darkest Path Through Infinity Far Behind My Body Rot For Me No More Tomorrow Fear Or Pain I Know Not And Yet I Am Filled With SorrowI Am The Gates Lord Of Chaos Let Me Sleep Space Is Deep Lord Of Chaos... Through The Gates The Journey Goes On The Fate Of My Immortal Soul Through The Gates The Journey Goes On And On... All I Crave Is To Sleep All I Crave Is To Sleep Across The Seas Without No Name The Weak Spot Of The Creation My Crown Of Thorns All Life It Drains As The Scars Back Of My Mind But At The Side Of My Lake Insanity Wait For Me To Find I Am All As I Am You And Me I Am Everything And Will Forever Be A Part Of You Throughout Eternity When You Die You Too Will Be Heaven Waits Below As You Will See I Am At The Gates But Where Are The Keys All I Crave Is To Sleep All I Crave Is To Sleep Lord Of Chaos...
3. All Life Ends
My Life Fades The Visions Dim All That Remains Are Memories I Remember A Time Of Chaos Time Of War As Men Began To Feed On Man Only The Scavengers Survived Gone Now, Swept Away For Reasons Long Forgotten Touched Of A Blaze Which Engulfed Them All, A Firestorm Of Fear The Answer Is Written In Their Bones, All Life EndsI Remember An Old Man Griping My Wrist, He Was Dying "Imagine", He Said"Looking Into The Eye Of A Nova, The Bursting Flames, The Roar Of It's Energy, Faintly Echoing Down The Corridors Of Time, Whispering: "All Life Ends""Death", He Said, "Is Like A Bolt Of Lightning,Light Cast Upon Every Secret. Just For A Moment,'Til The Last Spark Of Life Fades And All Is Dark" Then He Breathed Out His Last Breath Into My Ear His Gaze Already Way Out Among The Stars Among The Ruins Of The Past I Shelter From The Storm My MindIs Numb From The Loneliness And The Rain That Never Stops This Wasteland , Ones A Beautiful Place, Where Trees And Flowers Grew, Where Deer Squirrels Had Their Home Now Rotting Are Their Bones Where Raging Waters Grind The Earth I Go To End My Days The Sea That Witnessed Mankinds Birth Shall Watch Us Die Again Black And Deep, Empty Of Life As In Heaven So Below The Sun Has Now Forever Set And Bids Our Time To Go I Am Tired And I Fear Not, The Cold That Now Descends As Light Grows Dim, I Bid Farevell All Life Ends I Am Leaving Now, My Body Stiff Just Watching For A While That Rigid Shell, So Small And Weak, A Corpse On A Broken Cliff The Stars Are Calling Me Now With Distant, Speechless Voices And Caught By A Wind I Drift Away And Nothing Calls Me To Stay I Am Riding The Wind That Has No Name, The Fire That Burns Without A Flame Caught By The Spell On Which All Depends, All Life Ends The Answer Is Written In Their BonesAll Life Ends
