1. Lord of Flies
ABOVE THE EARTH SWARM THOUSANDS
ON THE GROUND THEY RUN BY THE SIGN OF THE SUN
IN THE WASTES SUMMONS A VOICE
A VOICE OF DESTRUCTION, THE CALLS FOR STARVATION
ABOMINATION TOWARDS TEH SUN
NOW THERE IS NOWHERE TO RUN
FOUL AND CURSED
A HOME OF UGLINESS, TORTURE AND PAIN
TAKE ME THERE
THE HORROR THAT HIDES BEHIND THIS SUPERNATURAL BEING
FOUL AND CURSED
THE STENCH OF THIS DESERT
WHAT HAVE I DONE?
HE IS LORD OF FLIES
2. Shairak Kinnummh
ALL THIS IS SEEN IN BLACK AND WHITE
THIS STORM, THIS SEA
A VIOLENT INFERNO, OUT OF NOWHERE
"DEVIL, PAINTING MY SOUL BLACK
YOUR BLOOD FLOWS IN MY VEINS
MASTER OF RATS, LEADER OF BATS
YOU ARE THE SUN, YOU ARE THE MOON
YOU ARE THE WIND THAT SWEEPS THIS LAND"
I WILL CROSS WITH GLORY AND PRIDE
"THE SUNSET THAT NEVER ENDS
THE WAVE THAT NEVER STOPS
THE TREE THAT NEVER GREW OLD
DARKNESS AND PAIN FOREVER REIGN
YOU ARE MY BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY, O SHAITAN"
I GAVE MY SOUL AND I WILL BURN
A RIVER OF MADNESS, A PATH OF SIN
THE PIT OF HORRORS THAT YOU SHOWED ME
IS WHERE I WILL DWELL AND STAY IN COMMAND

4. A Witch Is Born
IN A CROOKED HOUSE AS OLD AS THE FOREST
A CHILD WAS BORN IN FIRE
HER HELLISH VOICE, HER FURIOUS SCREAMS
IN MY CRYSTAL THAT NIGHT I COULD HEAR
TEN THOUSAND CHILDREN: THE DAY SHE WAS BORN
SUFFERED AND DIED IN THEIR CRYPTS
A WITCH IS BORN [REPEAT x4]
WITH EYES OF LIGHTNING, RAVEN BLACK HAIR
SHE WAS A BEAUTY
SHE CAME HERE TO RULE AS ALL
WITH HER CRUELTY
I ADMIRE HER BEAUTY, AND
THE MADNESS THAT SHE BRINGS
SINGING IN AWE
HAIL O NEW BORN WITCH
A WITCH IS BORN [REPEAT x4]
5. Through the Veils of Darkness
I LEAVE THIS WORLD BEHIND
IN ABENCE OF MY BODY
WHERE TAILS OF TROUBLED SOULS
SHALL LEAD THE WAY
I SWORE TO RETURN TO THIS PLACE OF SUFFERING
AND WHEN I SEE THE DEMON'S EYE STARE AT ME
I KNOW MY TIME HAS COME
AND ALL I COULD DO HAS BEEN DONE
BROUGHT TO THE END OF MY TRAIL
I STOP AND BEHOLD ALL THE DIFFERENT WORLDS
I AM SHAPELESS, DEAD AND LOST FOR WORDS...
6. The Mystical Play of Shadows
EVERY NIGHT A DARKER ONE
A TIME OF DEATH AND SLAUGHTER
A CHANGE OF LIGHT, A DARKER NIGHT
I SAW THE LAST DAWN
ELDER FORCES AROUND ME
OF THE MORTALS LEFT BEHIND
LEAD ME AGAIN TO THIS SHRINE
THE WOLVES IN THEIR MIDNIGHT SPEECHES
SCREAM MY NAME OUT LOUD IN TORMENT
AS THEY HAUNT YOU, HAUNT YOU ALL
FOREVER (SO EVIL, SO DARK)
THE DEAD SCREAM AND WRITHE
IN PAINS THEY FEEL POST-MORTEM
THE THRONE OF THOUGHTS STANDS
THIS IS THE END OF BOTH FIEND AND FRIEND
7. The Eyes of the Sun
MY EYES CLOSE AND I SINK
FROM THIS EXISTENCE TO A POINT OF BLISS
THE SILENT SHADOWS SEEMS TO COME MY WAY
NOW I SEE
PIERCED ARE THE EYES OF THE RUN
THROUGH I SEE A BLACK DAWN RISING
FOR CENTURIES IT HAS GIVEN YOU HOPE
BUT IT IS SLOWLY FALLING
NOW DRAINING YOU
DRAINING YOU OF LIVE
GRANTING YOU DEATH, THE DARKEST
LIFE GAVE YOU SOLACE BUT NOT ANY MORE
LIFE ONLY SHOWS YOU THE HORROR
HORROR... GOD'S OWN
8. A Myth...
TONIGHT OUR ENDLESS HUNT BEGINS
A STORM OF ENDLESS FLAMES
THE MOON, THE STARS, THE KILLING FIELDS
ONLY THE DARKEST SOULS WILL WALK THIS GROUND
SHADOWS RACING THROUGH THE NIGHT
LIKE THE HORDES OF ANCIENT TIMES
GRIM FACES, HEARTS OF STONE
ARMAGEDDON, THE FINAL WAR IS ON
A LEGION OF FORGOTTEN SOULS
AN ARMY OF HEATHEN FLESH
RIDING HELLION HORSES
THE MIDNIGHT SKY IS OUR HOME
WE ARE POSSESSED, WE ARE IMMORTAL
WE ARE THE TORMENT THAT YOU FEEL
OUR JOURNEY GOES THROUGH MAGIC MOONLIGHT
ON A PATH OF BROKEN BONES
ON A PATH OF BROKEN BONES
WE ARE BACK, FOREVER
[CHORUS: REPEAT x2]
STREAMS OF BLOOD IN THE FROZEN SNOW
HOWLING WOLVES, IN THEIR FOREST HOME
TORCHES BURNING, IN A THOUSAND HANDS
AS WE WAIT OUR ANCESTORS OF THE DARKLY SKY
TONIGHT OUR SHADOWS WILL FLY
TONIGHT THE SKY WILL CRY
TONIGHT THE RAVENS FLY
TONIGHT THE FINALWAR, THE SHADOW WAR
WE ARE THE NORTHERN LIGHT, AGAINST CLEAR BLACK SKY
WITH ARMOUR OF SILVER AND HELMETS OF HOME
THE FIRESTORM IS COMING, AND WILL SLAUGHTER AND KILL
AS OUR CLOVEN HOOVES ECHO FOREVER
THROUGH ENDLESS FORESTS
YOU ARE HUNTED, YOU ARE FORLORN
9. Dark Poems Author
SEVERED WAS HIS HEAD BUT STILL HE COULD SEE FAR, FAR AWAY
THEIR OPEN PLAINS, THEIR OPEN FIELDS
WHERE RIVERS RAN WITH BLOOD THEY LIFTED HIS BODY
DRENCHED IN SUMMERIAN BLACK WATERS OF SIN
CLIPPED ARE THE WINGS OF THIS ANGEL
HIS VOICE HAS BEEN SILENCED
STRIPPED HE HAS BEE LIMB FROM LIMB
THE PASSAGE LIES OPEN, THEY ARE ALL WRITTEN DOWN WORD BY WORD
THEIR AUTHOR, LORD OF THE CRYPTIC SEAS
CELESTRIAL GUARDIAN OF THEIR TALE AND SCRIPTURES
LEAD THEM TO THE FIRE BURNING
AND THEY SHALL GROW
WHEN ALL THIS HAD BEEN DONE HIS SIGHT WAS STILL UPON THEM
NEITHER DAY NOR NIGHT HIS EYES WOULD SHUT
THROUGH HINNUMS EMBERS, A LIGHT SHALL BLIND HIM FOREVER
