1. Norges Trollheim 2. Pale Skinned Darkness 3. Wartime Symphonies 4. At Daylight's End 5. My Withering Self
1. Norges Trollheim
Tordenstormen ruller i det fjerne – Trollhjertet slår
Som en isende vind mot berget – Trollhjertet slår
Lynet blafrer i den sorte horisonten – Trollhjertet slår
Opp under fjell her i Norges trollheim - Trollhjertet slår
Blandt tusser og troll jeg ferdes, skapninger av historien
I deres stue finnes jeg, der finner jeg stillheten
Her er vi en av skyggeverdenen, en under skogsmånen
Opp under fjell i Norges mektige trollheim
Mørkere nå, dypere nå – Trollhjertet slår
Tiden står stille, alle lyder dør hen – dette er mitt rike
I ett med lengsel, min savn og min lidenskap – Trollhjertet slår
Om dette er min siste time – dette forblir mitt rike
Kledd i farger spunnet av nattens sorte ve
Befarer jeg forblåste vidder langt avsted...
Vinden tar hardt, i både kropp og sjel
Mellom de høye fjell - til evig tid
Inn i tjernets mørke jeg speiler - som om et maleri dannes
Min sjel ser tilbake på meg, ventende, spørrende
En vekkelse på høsthimmelen
En ny sjel er født i natt
Opp under fjell i Norges mektige trollheim
Inn i skogens mørke
Hvor vemod dannes og sjelen den gråter sine bitre tårer
La deg lede inn i mørket, la deg friste av det forbudte
Ta min hånd min kjære slave, her vil du få sjelero.
Kom med oss
Slave
Kom og opplev
En ny dimensjon
En av mørket
En universal sannhet
Tordenstormen ruller i det fjerne – Trollhjertet slår
Som en isende vind mot berget – Trollhjertet slår
Lynet blafrer i den sorte horisonten – Trollhjertet slår
Opp under fjell her i Norges trollheim - Trollhjertet slår
2. Pale Skinned Darkness
I'm your most dreaded fear, your visions of horror
One search not for me, and I’ve found you
I have you
Cold empty feelings of hate, bewildering thoughts
Awakened lust
Screaming for tomorrow, bleeding for this sorrow
Come, Come with me
Will you try to reason, try explaining me
Pale skinned darkness
Stirring up feelings, so unreal so true
Pale skinned darkness
This most lonely season, despair do conquer
Pale skinned darkness
An unholy requiem, blasphemous sacrifice
Pale skinned darkness
Soft at the touch though hard, the blood inside runs strong
Seducing looks and gentle caresses of the dark beyond
The majesty
Eyes sparkling like stars, lips red as blood
Oh sweet blood
Entrancing dances of fire yet you cannot move
A final lick
A black dove unveils
It spreads its wings around me, a stake through the heart incapacitation
Praying at the moon
Release…
me!
Queen of the night mine dearest majesty
Thine skin so bright intoxicating me
I am yours
Please devour me
A un-life of my most horrid nightmares
Existence in death was a romance alive
I am hungering
Craving for thine sweet……
Kiss
Transcend beyond the mortal plane
Enter the circle of a deadly reign
Become as one with the shadows
Hunters in moonlight we disgrace the hallow
3. Wartime Symphonies
Counting bodies torn across the fields
Shrapnel blasting overhead
Taste the concoction of dirt and blood
Whirling up from the trembling ground
Drowning in battery fire!
Bow down to Satan’s empire!
The panzer awakens, shells ablaze
Trenches overcome by infernal fire
The grinding of bones under gnawing belts
Run or hide, no one’s leaving alive
Blitz in the night-sky
The horizon is on fire
A hellish rhythm
Heaven’s torn asunder
The crackling of artillery
Clearer the visions be
Now you finally see
Damnation close at hand
Death is the final stand
A single blast and silence came
The phosphorus sheds the skin
Never had a chance to see it come
An agony beyond anything
4. At Daylight's End
With a shadow cast as heavy as stone, I stand tall
My passion complied with the prophecies told, yet never believed
Intermingled with reason and time – thoughts dissolved
Like feathers they fell to the ground – and as angels they wept when they died
Misery hath brought him near
This libertine stands alone
Delightful deceit of the damned
Death shall but feed with cruel intent
And carnal desires arise
In the bleakening crimson light
The moment is truly sworn
Misery hath brought him near…
I believe in the existence of a nocturnal life force
Beyond the gates of worldly despair
A journey for the soul throughout the void
Where death may be the only source of life…
I demand a greater virtue at daylight’s end
Captured by light’s divine demise – such a glorious death
This silence around me is quite overwhelming – absenting all good
Mysterious force of death and deception - reveal yourself
O’ misery how thou are sweet
Foreverdark in your clasp
Descend from your clandestine paths
Embrace the Perilous One
Crush the philosopher’s stone…
…The moment is truly sworn
He became the swarm
Entranced by a thousand lies
Plagued with the illness of faith
This libertine brought to his knees
Relinquished the struggle for life
As misery drew to its end
Nightside dominions will forever give shelter
And I rest my haunt against these thoughts
This is the night when I was born - where I belong
It’s all I can recall again and again…and again
In the shadowy depths of this circle, of which I seem to dwell
No longer do I find the reason to linger
Through this fantasia we call life
Nightside dominions – come take my life…
Angels did not come to save me; as I fell into torment
A godless being I therefore remain
And I do blaspheme towards all men
Who claim they’re of my kin…
With hatred and anger by my side
I grant life to visions of a darker reality
Words no longer hold any wisdom
Human appearance bereft of all glory
Seeds of life so painfully dying
Misery spawned thorns in my side
5. My Withering Self
I flow, across the fields of damnation - I feel the pain, it stings in me – I am at one with thee.
The impending shadows of the dark skies above stretch across the land –
a blanket of death, my black exterior.
In the distance a roar is heard, the growl of people in horrid pain - beyond the abyss –
beyond the pits.
Come demon! Reveal your truth to me - I am yours finally.
[Descending] – falling in a well of insanity.
I awake, beyond holocaust - in the wilderness of death I tread on unknown ground.
We slave for our freedom, a false freedom we seek – enlightenment in captivity,
the reign of the dark emperor.
A craving to see the truth, to live in the reality we cannot cope with.
I hide away - a dream is too real.
Tearing, the abrasive reality all around me, I can’t escape no more. I am but a wretch in a realm of madness.
Walking the path of doom alone, I speak yet no one hears me.
The world is paused still I am alive.
They look straight upon me still they do not see me, am I dead already?
From the skies above there comes a calling that only I respond to,
I must be the only one here.
The portal opens - the crackling of thunder is heard, the dark mist is coming nearer
Calling my name - calling for me. I enter the gate to be at one with thee.
Noooooooo… I didn’t know it
Noooooooo… I never sought it
Slicing, tearing, limbs gave up bearing
No man; nor beast can overcome this
In the dark, I feel a presence of night and of tranquility - total stillness engulfs me.
I bear the mark - forever to walk the land as one with the plague - I am the expelled one.
Succumbing - I slowly give in to the overwhelming forces.
Now I am one of the enlightened ones.
I can see the truth, the rotten truth in all its grimness – Was this what I wanted?
The cold silence devours me
My eyes no longer able to see
My mouth no longer able to speak
My heart no longer able to beat
The cold silence devours me
What a beautiful silence it is….
Alone as before, I long for the demon’s caress.
