1. Knighthood of the Moonlit Realm
WHISPER UNTO ME THE NAME THAT I ONCE LOVED
THE GLORIOUS BEAUTY THAT BEKNIGHTED MY SOUL IN DARKNESS
BLOODSHED! IN BATTLE HER NAME I DEFENDED
THROUGHOUT COUNTLESS WARS
ALL BATTLE SCARS WERE MENDED,
BUT NOT MY HEART, FROZEN AND FRAGILE, BROKEN LIKE GLASS
AS THE MOON RISES OVER EACH MOUNTAIN I PASS
FALLING EVER DOWNWARD INTO A LAND DEVOID OF SUN
AS COLD WINDS HIT LIKE ICE, MY LIFE IS UNDONE
CRY NOT FOR ME NOR FOR MY LOVELY QUEEN
CRY FOR THE OTHERS DOOMED TO REMAIN LIVING
A THUNDEROUS SOUND AS HOOVES SHAKE THE GROUND
ONWARD INTO BATTLES OBLIVIOUS TO ALL
STEEDS OF BLACK WITH KNIGHTS OF SILVER
INTO THE DARKNESS RIDE
CRUSADERS OF THE DARK COMETH FROM THE NIGHT
TO EXTINGUISH THY HOLY LIGHT
2. Abysmal Shores of the Dark Lands Beyond the Sun
THE WATERS RAGE UPON THE ABYSMAL SHORES
IN THE DARK LANDS BEYOND THE SUN
UPON THE WATERS SAIL OBSIDIAN SHIPS
AS BLACK AS THE DARKEST NIGHT
DARK ROBED FIGURES GUIDE THESE VESSELS
THROUGH THE OPEN SEAS
BRINGING ETERNAL NIGHT TO ALL THAT THEY SEE
THEIR SOULS AS DARK AS THE ENDLESS ABYSS
THEIR OPEN EYES BLACK AND DEVOID OF LIFE
HATEFUL AND CRUEL THEIR GAZE AS COLD AS DEATH
DARK CLOUDS GATHER ABOVE
CLOAKING THEM IN THE OMINOUS BLACK OF NIGHT
UNSEEN BY THE WARRIORS OF LIGHT
THAT SAIL ON GOLDEN SHIPS FROM HEAVENLY SHORES
THE SHIPS COLLIDE WITH THE SOUND OF BREAKING THUNDER
DARK CREATURES FROM THE DEEPEST DEPTHS
SLITHER THROUGH THE CHURNING BLACK WATERS
THEIR HORRIBLE FORMS VISIBLE JUST BELOW THE SURFACE
AS THE GOLDEN BOWS OF THE HOLY SHIPS
SINK INTO THE ENDLESS DEPTHS
THE DARK CLOUDS RECEDE
AS THE MOON'S LIGHT SHINES UPON THE ENDLESS SEAS
NOW TURNING RED WITH THE BLOOD OF THE HOLY
3. In Winter's Ancient Slumber
THE SKIES ABOVE GROW DARK
AS THE MOON IS HIDDEN BY MIGHTY STORM CLOUDS
COLD WINDS BLOW AS FREEZING RAIN FALLS ACROSS THE LANDS
RAVENS GATHER UPON HIGH STONE CLIFFS
THAT RISE FROM WITHIN THE DEEP AND MAGICAL FORESTS
HIDDEN WITHIN THE MOON CAST SHADOWS
ARE THE MIGHTY CRUSADERS OF THE DARK
ON THEIR NIGHT BLACK STEEDS
CLOAKED IN THE DARKNESS OF NIGHT UNSEEN BY ALL
AS THEY BESET UPON THEIR QUEST FOR VENGEANCE AND GLORY
IN THE EYES OF THEIR DARK LORDS WHO SHALL RULE THE LANDS
FROM THEIR TOWERING STONE FORTRESSES AND GRIM CASTLES
RISING FROM THE OMINOUS AND MAJESTIC MOUNTAIN PEAKS
THE DARK CRUSADERS SWORDS ARE DRAWN
AND COATED WITH THE BLOOD
OF ALL WHO OPPOSE THE BLACK HORDES
AS THE FALLING RAIN TURNS TO SNOW
THE EARTH IS EMBRACED IN WINTER'S ANCIENT SLUMBER
THRONES ARE MADE FROM THE BONES OF THE VANQUISHED
AS THE DARK CRUSADERS RIDE IN VICTORY
4. The Final Battle For Our Once Glorious Midgard
FIERCE LIGHTNING STRIKES FROM THE SKIES
THUNDER BREAKS IN APPROACHING STORMS
FROM THE ALMIGHTY DARK
BLACK HORDES GATHER FROM THE NORTH
RIDING FORTH ON NIGHTMARE STEEDS
WITH HOOFS OF FLAME AND EYES OF RED
THE STARS ARE HIDDEN BY MENACINGLY DARK CLOUDS,
BUT THE MOON SHINES BRIGHT
ON GLEAMING BLACK ARMOR
AND WEAPONS OF WAR POISED FOR BATTLE
THE ANCIENT SIGN OF THE DARK CRUSADES IS RISEN ABOVE
ON A BANNER OF BLACK FOR ALL TO SEE
A SYMBOL OF HATRED AND VICTORY TO COME
DARK HORNS RESOUND THE SOUND FOR ALL TO ATTACK
THE DARK MINIONS MEET THEIR FOES
IN DESOLATE FIELDS AND ON FROZEN PLAINS
A DARK FORCE CHARGING INTO THE BLINDING WHITE LIGHT
EMANATING FROM THEIR ENEMIES TO EXTINGUISH IT FOREVER
POOLS OF BLOOD TAINT THE MOON
A FEARSOME SHADE OF CRIMSON RED
CONSECRATING THESE MIGHTY REALMS IN UNHOLY DARKNESS
NONE SHALL SURVIVE AS THE DARK CRUSADERS RIDE AGAIN
FOREVER SPREADING ETERNAL WAR
5. Within the Sylvan Realms of Frost
SNOW FALLS UPON THE DARKEST SCENES OF WINTER
FALLING INTO UNFATHOMED DEPTHS
BELOW THE TREE LINE OF THE VAST FOREST
ICY STREAMS FLOW AS SILENTLY AS
THE APPROACHING FOOT FALLS OF DEATH
ONLY THE RUSTLING OF LEAVES
FROM A SINGLE NORTHERN BREEZE MAY BE HEARD
HERE DWELL THE GREAT WARLOCKS,
THE CONJURERS OF WINTER'S DEMONS
DARK ONES AS ANCIENT AS THE ELDEST TREES
OF THE MIGHTY FOREST
THEY CHANT THE SPELLS OF FIRST SNOW
WHICH ECHO THROUGHOUT THESE ANCIENT SYLVAN REALMS
AWAKENING THE SLEEPING DEMONS
OF THE PERPETUAL WINTER WOODS
UNDER THE MAGNIFICENCE OF THE WINTER FULL MOON
DEMONS WITH SOULS AS COLD AS THE WINTER WINDS
AND DARK AS THE NIGHT THAT BIRTHED THEM
THE BLACK ROBED MAGES SPILL THEIR OWN BLOOD
IN SACRIFICE TO THE DARK HARBRINGERS OF WINTER'S GALE
UPON THIS BLOOD THE DEMONS DRINK
QUENCHING THEIR GREAT THIRST
THROUGH THIS REBIRTH COMES THE RETURN
OF THEIR CRYPTIC POWERS OF OLD
NOW ALL MUST SUCCUMB TO WINTER'S DARK FOLD
OR BE TORN ASUNDER BY IT'S ICY TALONS
6. Commencement of the Dark Crusades
SHIVERING IN ECSTASY AS ICY WINDS
BLOW DOWN FROM THE NORTH
AS THE SUN DESCENDS BEYOND THE HORIZON
THE WARRIORS OF THE DARK ARISE
WITH EYES OF FIRE ON GREAT BLACK STEEDS
THEY ATTACK WITH FURY
WITH A HORDE OF DEMONS BORN FROM HELL
FOLLOWING IN THEIR WAKE
ALL SHALL PERISH BY THE MOONLIT SILVER OF THEIR SWORDS
THE DARK CRUSADERS SING THEIR HYMNS OF ETERNAL PRAISE
WITH BLOOD SPILT IN SACRIFICE
THE EARTH QUAKES WITH THE GALLOPING OF HOOVES
THE DARK CRUSADES COMMENCE AS A GREAT BLACK PLAGUE
THAT SPREADS ACROSS THE HORIZON
ALL THAT IS HOLY SHALL COME TO REST
IN AN OBLIVION OF DEATH WITH THEIR SOULS ENSLAVED
BLACK WINGED DEMONS ASCEND INTO THE HEAVENS
THE DEATH CRIES OF THE ANGELS SHRILL AND PIERCING
AS THEIR COLD BLOOD RAINS FROM THE SKIES
RAVENS TAKE TO FLIGHT INTO THE DARK NIGHT SKY
AS THEIR SHADOWS CROSS THE SHINING FULL MOON
THROUGH DARK FORESTS AND VAST MOUNTAIN LANDS
THE DARK CRUSADERS RIDE DESTROYING ALL
WAGING BATTLES FOR CENTURIES TO COME
RIVERS OF BLOOD FLOW ONTO
THE BLACK AND BARREN LANDSCAPE
THE ASHES OF BURNING RUINS
ARE SCATTERED BY FREEZING NORTH WINDS
7. Ascension of a Star Long Since Fallen
A STROKE OF MAGNIFICENT LIGHTNING
IRIDESCENT SKIES
THE MORNING STAR ROAMS FREE
AMONGST OPALESCENT CLOUDS
RADIANT FORM, BRIGHTER THAN FIRE
PRIDEFUL BLACK WINGS SPREAD
ENGULFING THE EARTH IN DARKNESS
REBEL OF THE COSMOS
HIS THRONE CONSTRUCTED FROM THE FRUIT
TAKEN FROM THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE
ANOINTED WITH LIGHT OF TRUTH
BEJEWELED WITH CLANDESTINE WISDOM
CROWNED WITH DESIRE
ARMED WITH THE SCEPTER OF STRENGTH
MAJESTIC PRINCE OF EARTH AND AIR
MALEVOLENT MIGHTY CONQUEROR
TAKES FLIGHT UNTO THE HEAVENS
EXPLORING HIS EMPIRE
OF THE INFINITE COSMIC SEAS
RETRIBUTION... HEAVEN SHALL BURN
ASCEND LUCIFER
EXALT THY THRONE ABOVE THE STARS
DWELL WITHIN THE FROZEN NORTH
MOUNTED UPON THE CLOUDS
GLORIOUS LUCIFER, FLAG OF FREEDOM
BEARER OF LIGHT, PATH OF WISDOM
SON OF MORNING, SWORD OF VICTORY
THE MOST HIGH, HE IS I
8. The Darkbringer
...AND AN ANGEL OF UNHERALDED BEAUTY
WAS CAST FORTH FROM THE HEAVENS
FORESHADOWING ALL IN IT'S PROPHETIC DESCENT
FOR IN THE END THE LIGHT SHALL FALTER
AND A FALLEN STAR SHALL SUCCEED THE THRONE OF CHRIST
BRINGING THE WORLD INTO UTTER DARKNESS...
9. Hypocrisy of the Accursed Heavens
10. The Eternal Winter Shall Never Fade
A DARK SHROUD ENTOMBS THIS ETERNAL EVE
IN ANCIENT AND FORGOTTEN MYSTERIES
SHADOWS DRIFT THROUGH THE SOLEMN GRAVES
BRINGING MEMORIES OF AGES LONG PAST
THE EARTH'S FROZEN TEARS
SHATTER UPON THE STONE
OF MEMORIALS LONG FORGOTTEN
THE MOON HAS CAST A SPELL
COVERING ALL IN IT'S FROST
THE WINTER WINDS BLOW COLD AS ICE
ACROSS THE FROZEN LANDS
THE SUN NO LONGER SHINES
ON A WORLD FORSAKEN TO THE DARK
ETERNAL WINTER, THE EARTH IS DEAD
FOREVER NIGHT, ALL IS BLACK
11. Ascencion of a Star Long Since Fallen
12. The Darkbringer
13. Rebirth by Moonlight
LONG AGO I STOOD ALONE
ON A DARK BARREN MOUNTAIN
OVERLOOKING THE LANDS BELOW
I KNELT IN PROFOUND SORROW
OFFERING MY SOUL TO THE NIGHT
I CALLED OUT FOR DEATH AND WAITED,
BUT AS MY LIFE SLOWLY FADED
THE NIGHT REACHED OUT FOR ME
AND TOOK ME AS IT'S CHILD
AND A DARK ONE CAME AND OFFERED IT'S GIFT
TO DRINK OF THE SACRED BLOOD
IN ECSTASY UNPARALELLED BY MORTAL LUST
I EMBRACED THE LIGHT OF THE MOON
AND BECAME ONE WITH THE SHADOWS
IN SILENCE I WEPT
AS I BEHELD FOR THE FIRST TIME
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL OF ALL BEAUTY
UTTER DARKNESS TRULY UNBLEMISHED BY LIGHT
