1. On The Wings Of Gwaihir
Return from oblivion...
Embraced by the flames
I fell down, I fell in desperate anger
Into those nameless deeps
Out of time, out of any apprehension
Through black paths of Khazad-dum
Through my own fear, I've tried to find a way out
I felt the cold breathe of doom
In darkness, blind, I followed the enemy of mine
Storm and haze wreathed the mountain
As we left the bottom level of the world
On Celebdil, I gave out all my powers
And defeated magic of the Balrog's soul
Then the dark arose in my mind
I wondered out of reality
Each day was like one Ard's age
And all stars twinkled in my eyes
Naked and forgotten, I've been sent back to life
So found me Gwaihir,
He took my body and flew away...
2. Strokes of Desire
In the Lilies, naked, and the rain
Is falling at me, at my trembling skin
In the flames, in desire's web
I feel you, Opium in my dreams
Sister of flowers, as darkness falls at you
At your innocence, as a black crystal of night
My serenade for your hot lips
I feel the sweat on your breast
My body lies resigned to you
Your eyes stroke me in desire of love
Like an ocean of fire and ice
Blinded by the strokes and sighs
As the rain flows down
Your leaves and even skin
As you're burning now
In moments of ecstasy
Lights of candles are dancing on your body
Strokes of your hands, I feel on my skin
Like swans in love in the lake
We fall asleep to those silent dreams
In the Lilies, naked, and the rain
Is falling at me, at my trembling skin
In the flames, in desire's web
I feel you, Opium in my dreams
3. As Your Body Burns
The symbol of lies and suffering
Nailed to the cross
With empty mind you embrace its feet
And rise your eyes up to heaven
Your cry is the consequence of your view
Just watching the world is dying by your guilt
Your false prayers satisfy you
But in this hopes I refuse to live
As your body burns in my flames
It scorches all the villainies of this world
Scorches senseless laws and orders
And burns the symbol of bleeding Christ
Why should I avoid sex, when I love a woman
Why should I not kill my father's murder
Why should I still listen, your belief is the true one
When it caused so much pain to this world
The years are lost and you go down
You find out what you loose
At the gates of eternal sleep
The crown of thorns is falling deep
...to Oblivion...
4. Blindness
You think the time will stop for now
To find out what is happening around
That strange look of those blind eyes
In faces of this rushing world
You think you are free all the time
But there are thousand things controlling you
Proudly you walk into the abyss
Of thoughts you never owned
Look at those dying fathers
And their unborn sons
Notice those crying mothers
Abandoned and broken above graves
Time exist no more
It stopped moving in their hearts
So dead is what they lived for...
So dying is the race of us...
You think the time will stop for now
To find out what is happening around
Proudly you walk into the abyss
Of thoughts you never owned
5. Lavondyss
The fire burns in the land of the bird's spirit
The smoke flows of my bones, I have to go there...
That childish hand discovered the masks in the wood
Those bright eyes saw hooded figures, smashed
- they streaked in shadows
There places whispered their names
And the summer breeze smelled with a winter
Strong timbers absorbed her words
And the answer was just a flutter
Of winged beings up in the limbs
Tallis - the sweetheart of the cripple
Her warrior under "The strong against the storm"
Stone talismans scared away all birds
The Nature's laws, the love, the death and the knowing
Mysterious beings, warriors in furs and bones of prophecy
Endless search for the lost, lost brother Harry
Long wandering to the place
Place where the life ends and the lost could be found
Could be found Lavondyss
Lonely in death, the circle - Lavondyss
6. The Evening ... And Then Came The Night
Sorrow was falling in the rain and tears
There was night when your eyelids fell down
Your eyes were closed
And dew ran through dust of hopes
Voices were calling into your mind
Throwing down meaning of life
That agony you felt in the last storm
Sorrow was falling in the rain and tears
I had a dream when you had die
Just the body in the grass
And I felt the cold blood on your lips
Children are scrolling through the dark
Without mother, yearning
To feel again beams of morning light
Your mind had to fly somewhere
And I didn't catch that thoughts
It was an evening in your life
And your mourning was my night
Memories, still hunt me
In my nightmares, and my dreams
7. My December
Raven's eyes are staring at me
While flying in the wind
Bright, white pearls all around me
Magic's in (hearts of) the trees
My December - deep inside of me
My December - my heart of beauty
(I'm the) vapor over level of the lake
(I'm the) silent glow of the moon
(I'm the) crystal love in the white cold grace
The snow falling down on you
My eyes, my soul, my heart
My December, I'm soul of ice
I felt the sorrow, when a man came to me
And broke my heart to satisfy his dreams
Blood of my heart runs in snow
Your claws are tearing my face
I feel blizzard of my soul
When I'm fading away...
8. It Ends When The Moon Loses Its Face
A bizarre picture of the death
That paints with the blood
In the canvas of your face
It ripples in the whirlpool of a dance
Your palm's in the gesture
Of the last minute of life
It cools mine
You ripple in the whirlpool of the dance
The insane dance of us
It ends when the moon loses its face
I fade in the rippling level
Of the labyrinth of time
Blood tears of mine flow
Out of my eyes
Blood tears of mine flow
Out of my eyelids
In a beauty sealed forever
There reflects our end
Our dancing shade on the walls
Like a gobelin pattern
In the breeze of my clothes
And the garland of lilies the time stopped
9. Rivers Of Oblivion
(There is a) strange quiet in crowns of trees
Only raindrops break the silence
Beauty of naked fairies
In the darkness of infernal dance
Those touches of their lips
And bodies luring you
But you feel like
A prisoner nailed to stones
There's black heaven and red sun over my head...
Horizon is gray in the garden of thorns
In this nameless time, with ruins of hopes
(Melting in the) rivers of oblivion, forgotten by the time
Is this insanity? Slave of the suffering...
I am the fallen angel
And my wings are dead
Blood flowers of this darkness
Fall to my palms
My bride is flying there
As a black orchid she looks
Raven, what can I feel?
Oblivion of times?
Horizon is...
10. Dowina
Twilight haze embraces horizons
Where the rivers of our past still flow
Let the cold wind blow in your heart
And let the water become the blood of your own
Time is written into walls of stone
Just stand and listen to their echoes
Take over past of this mighty place
Close your eyes and dive into shadows
11. Acheron
The past has enslaved that all
We built for the future life
Through an endless age of twilight
We tried to regain our pride
Strangers ruled us by the divine right
Mastered our fate just as they liked
In spite the pain and desperation
We never forgot the name of our NATION
