1. Killing Frost
Music: Panu Kiskola & Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
Pain begins
Grows stronger
Winter grins at me
A shiver in my spine
Burning inside
Earth cries calling me
Catching me in her toils
Shelter me from this cold
I'm coming home
Myth of dominion reigning over
- Treacherous and guilty
Fear from within - I deny
Hollow grin - Coming forth
Holy - Minion
Kith and kin - Legions
Of the end - Shattered
Sound asleep dreams reprieve
Conceal the slender weak seduce serenity
Shards seep with grief haven within reach
What will lie beyond
Fallen to oblivion
Long for those sweet oppressive verses
Whispered by silent nightwings
I've got endeared to me
They grind me to the bone
"Seize the day" don't try alone
Ardent hearts
Will not survive when they are apart
Under the bright shiny stars
I swear it in my heart
My vows are unbreakable to
Me standing here on your grave
I shed a tear and pray
A brand new day will come for me
Pilgrims of love enfold after all
Bequest of vanity disciple of deceit
Shiny stars hold within
The reason for belief
Death my Bride Adorned
2. Blessed Stillness?
Music: Panu Kiskola & Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
Compulsory epilogue
complicity forbidden
sore transgression
controversy
I'm impaled by riots of laughter
All deranged
I am scoured after
In gloomy thoughts
Yielded to temptation
Despite the battles fought for consolation
As I fall deeper to my dreams
Until deathlike stillness
Demands its sacrifice on the darkest of night
Water and fire will unite when bells toll
Ashes will fill the morning sky so calm
Circled by fire
Obey your desire
Chanting glance
Join the reapers round dance
Take me in to the dark temptations
Break me make me survive
Drench me in tears when tender valediction
Confides in me
Water and fire will unite when bells toll
I shall live on in the minstrels' songs
Tyrant unveiled
Joy -pernicious
Mirth -portentous
Menace greet me
Disciple of malady
3. Bridewell
Music: Panu Kiskola & Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
What is restraining
Behind those black eyes
They never shed tears
Or questioned why
Things that prevail in
This twisted disguise
Though they are mortal
They never die
Cry I hear you lie
You fill my endless days with wasted
Time that once was bright like candlelight
Night has songs that tell of sorrow
When tomorrow gives new wings
For those who are alone
Whose story is foretold
Will they remain from the day innocence
Rephrases their faith as in their days gone by
They tantalised me they patronised me
They caught me in their web
Awakening dreams tell of their bad deeds
Behold her crystallising tears
Who shall caress her who shall embrace her
Who will forgive her crimes
Beneath the cold snow like a heart of stone
Will I ever see love again
Victimising blackness parasites
Sucking all the life from your veins
Paralysing madness desperate cries
Freezing your heart with her blackened eyes
Hides in fantasy and lies within her heart
That tangled her blind
Life that once was bright like candlelight
Wolf to the moon
in the darkest hour
She hides in shadows
With things that crawl at night
Once her eyes were bright our guiding light
Piece after piece delusions redeem
the enchantment of grief at the edge of a world long deceased
4. Nexus Divina
Music: Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
Heart and eye are in a mortal war of love
a Love for war
Rose descends to this bed of death
We near grave sepulchre
I believe in relief
I will know when
I'll be released once and for all
No reasons for this all
These words will go on
Darksome so ever the nightfall may be
I shall wait at the break of the dawn for you
Scorch my fears it's music to my ears
The words of clouds above
Moonlight shall be one of the
Last of things that I shall see so
I don't know where
I belong so
Tell me again my friend
What tender witchcraft importune
Deceiving in the orb of your tear
No more I've seen all that lies within my soul
Uncried tears regressive fears inside
Take me in to your arms
Let me feel your gentle touch
Caress me as I depart as
I shall drink the poison of your heart
Down to the ground
Tied to the ground
5. Otherwordly
Music: Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
On the edge of time
We rise when worlds collide.
Crimson beams of light
Lead their way
Illuminate the night
Within the prey
Free the holy land
Heathens must die
Raise your voices
Heed all their cries
Realise they shall die
Follow the Blind one when
Marching under a black flag
We are seeking to find our way back,
No more we have seen the light
It is time to stand up and fight
For pride
For life
Silent prayers are whispered
We lust for life
Our king shall reign for all time
We shall remember
This god-forsaken land has lost its way
Last change surrender
From dusk until the dawn
We sing our songs and carry on in the night
Give us our freedom
O' Saviour of our people
So that we may be joyful
To have such a glory
Who will reign in sovereignty.
When all our enemies will be
As free as
We are under your rule
When gone are all the fools
Who are misguided
Like the ones we have guarded
For eternity
6. Through the Haze
Music: Mikko Mustonen
Instrumental
7. Ivory Towers Fall
Music: Panu Kiskola & Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
Look away from ivory towers
Set your heart for me to beckon me
Have I not released the sun
Only for the moon to born again
No reason to dwell inside the past
It will only make first ones come last
Winter breeze begins to blow
Nights are growing cold
I have conquered your garden
Now it seems like I'm subsided
Sympathy has lost its power
Bonfires cross my heart
Days die while we are apart
Brief unloving world
Kills love from dusk to dawn
Help me carry my burden
ease my troubled mind
Will I ever touch the sky be free to fly
My words for requiem
I wrote it long ago
My tale will never end
It is forever
8. From Last Heaven
Music: Panu Kiskola & Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
Fountain of love will perish by her assail compounding
Where is her redemption
In solitude this sworn oath obliging her with patience
Scorned by plague divine deprived mortified
Look inside your crystal ball can you see me in there
Wandering seeking remedy
Bleeding will not stop until I find what I'm looking for
Under this crimson sky
Incantation fallen misery
Halo of thorns though filled with pride undefiled ablazing
Precious filthy honour
Trail torn apart infatuated remorse on placid shores
My legacy it's vanity for me
Staring the sea with longing
Rose withering in twilight
Rapture of vivacious glistening petals glittering with (ice)
Gracious sacred virtue
Numb from the incisions
Tranquil dirges so hollow
Scoured with indignity
9. Reminiscences & Premonitions
Music: Mikko Mustonen
Instrumental
10. The Grey Eminence
Music: Panu Kiskola & Mikko Mustonen
Lyrics: Tuomas Nieminen
Guilt has always tried to prey me down from my bliss
Inside this silent well of sorrow that has burned my eyes
For Aeons
Doomed to hide inside this lie
Life is not for giving my soul needs salvation
Through the haze that steals all my space
Blinded by fire casting from your eyes
Fall from grace without my embrace
Infinite days play all my cards away
Sign the way where I pass at eve of day
I welcome you into my silent maze
This masquerade of lies that fades away
My only chance lies in your hands
You can dry the tears from my eyes
This life has gone by
It's too hard to find
Light from my shadow
That drags me down
There's no tomorrow
There's only sorrow
Holding your heart
in my arms
Rainbow-coloured days
Were filled with rage of devourer
With the hands of time that have gone by
Why I don't know
I used to dress for the kill
Killed for the thrill
