1. Eternity Rites (Part 1)
Eternity Rite Part I: sight from the abyss (the confession and profecy)
I feel this cold darkness
The very emptiness calls me.
Follow me on my path…
Come, sentence this world to death.
Mortal life is nothing -
Compared to the void.
Your fears will be eraeased
As the thought reaches eternity.
What once was balance now is broken….
As this shadows arised
From the dephts beyond space and time -
The abyssios beyond the line
Of mortal imagination.
Light faded and left no source.
I walk the void…
Here time is the traveller
And I am the constant.
2. Demon Eyes
Demon Eyes
I am the one you called
Deep in the night you lost your soul.
Through demon eyes you saw
What lies behind the mask of life.
To ride with me - to cross the firesea…
Were these your greatest dreams?
Eternal wisdom you will earn
Far away from present days.
Through demon eyes you saw
The spheres I left for centuries.
Shadows of the worlds beyond
They touch you like a burning wind.
A circlegate of neverending journeys
Is close to the eyes you now call your own.
Walk the path of spirit
Into dimensions unknown.
Through demon eyes you died…
3. Fuer Grissa Est Dranka
4. Down to the Halls of the Blind
I can see what you see not
Visions milky then eyes rot
When you turn they will be gone
Whispering their hidden song
Then you see what cannot be
Shadows move where light should be
Death is their curse to the sun
to walk the way they had begun
Out of darkness out of mind
cast down into the halls of the blind
5. Nightvision
Here at the top of a mountain
in a clear night under stars
that seem to fall every next moment
I received a vision
A vision of a rising empire
A union of the strong
built upon the hate in man
6. Arcanum Mortis
Arcanum Mortis
Ecce anus in mediis
Sedens annosa puellis
Sacra facit Tacitae
Nec tamen illa tacet
Et digitis tria tura tribus
Sub limine ponit.
Qua brevis occultum
Mus sibi fecit iter.
Tunc cantata ligat
Cum fusco licia plumbo
Et septem nigras versat
In ore fabas.
Quodque pice adstrinxit,
Quod acu traiecit aena.
Obsutum maenae torret
In igne caput.
Vina quoque instillat
Vini quodcumque relictum est
Aut ipsa aut comites
Plus tamen ipsa bibit.
« Hostiles linguas inimicaque
Vinximus ora.
Dicit discedens
Ebriaque exit anus.
7. Eternity Rites (Part 2)
8. Temple of the Moon
9. Of Broken Stones
Waters unleashed...
Fires unbound...
Ashes surround my feet
as I see how might could work... Once more...
Shadows embrace me
with their wings of frozen fears
my elements the necromancer's dream
tear flesh from bone
Stones broke up, iron melted
as I set my feet at the shores of the underworld
Now pure to enter the forbidden realms
I walked the path of spirit once more
As pure as the prophecies have told
"And we shall journey into the realms of the dead
and contest with the forces therein
to gain knowledge from the burning lands
but never he shall return to the world of light"
10. Seelenlos
Blind eyes that see no more
as what is hidden in your face
blind eyes see the skull
behind your skin
It feels you're growing
older with every second
It sees your decay in every minute
A soulless corpse with wings of death
A desolated mind without fears
This is it what this entity belongs to
not a linear existence
