1. Shaking Chill
Shaking Chill
Sliding past my skin
Praying visions end
Horror sweetly laughing
I can feel you
Lying
Underneath the sea
Whispering to me
Hiding under dark glass
I can feel you crawling
Crawling
Crawling
Crawling to me
Chorus
Breathing soft lies
Old flesh, old crimes
Fairy deep in her glass winks
green eyed
Chill slipping inside
Shadows drift
Past the open door
Storm swell pounds the shore
Old gods hateful canting
I can hear you
Shifting
Underneath the Sea
Whispering to me
Waking from your long sleep
I can hear you calling
Calling
Calling
Calling to me
Chorus
Frostrime halos
Cold spray blurs my sight
Reeling in my fright
On gale swept knifes edge
gasping
I can see you
Rising
Ascending from the sea
Exalted before me
Ancient king awakened
I can see you rising
Rising
Rising
Rising for me
Chorus 2x
2. Last Mistake
Veil of darkness, veil of lies death and pain
My hate will live beyond these cold remains
I curse you with my last breath's cry
Veil of darkness, frozen veil of lies
Spell cast, eyes blur sightless
Howling winds shriek with laughter
Rising waters, hate and horror
Fear the dim and what comes after
Veil of distance, veil of shadows and sighs
Coiled in sleep I bind your useless eyes
Whispered silence, your soul comes to me
Veil of distance, a cold and twisting sea
Spell cast, eyes blur sightless
Howling winds shriek with laughter
Rising waters, hate and horror
Fear the dim and what comes after
I own you, all is now mine
Beyond the grave, I live in your mind
I rule you and all you wanted
The living damned, cursed and haunted
I'd stop to think of what I ask for
Turning locks and breaking sealed doors
I slept alone not by choice
Entombed below, rising to the call of your
voice
I own you, all is now mine
Beyond the grave, I live in your mind
I rule you and all you wanted
The living damned, cursed and haunted
I own you, now and always
Soul chained till the end of all days
I rule you as you wanted
The living damned, forever cursed and
haunted
3. Cold Forever
I wait here
Winter's graveyard
Cold forever
They sleep here
Iced flesh
Cold forever
See through them
No more lies
Cold forever
Call to them
Blood rising
Cold forever
Wake for me
Undead eyes
Cold forever
Rise for me
Moonless night
Cold forever
I die here
Winter's graveyard
Blood surrender
Spill no tear
Iced flesh
Blood surrender
In death trust
No more lies
Blood surrender
Lost to lust
Brood rising
Blood surrender
Teeth showing
Undead eyes
Blood surrender
Smile glowing
Moonless night
Blood surrender
4. Plague Shroud
Dusk's angel weeps
Black tears fall
Sickness uncoiled
Light, too bright to stand
Retching I...
Chorus
Sleep - again, in clean white linen
Needle draws thread tight
The last stitches hiding the light
Inside on fire
Pain takes all
Hands are so weak
Cloth, hide me from sight
Silent I...
Stitching still
I lay here
A burial shroud
The last gift to myself
Please can I...
Chorus
5. In Among The Humans
Bodies fail in speechless tatters
Pools of black, pools of red
A predator among the flocks
A hint of smile, the grinning dead
The cracked and hollow seeping sky
Folded wings, murdered crows
In among the saints and prayers
A hint of smile, the warm blood flows
A hint of smile, the warm blood flows
A hint of smile, the warm blood flows
Ice cold rise
In rotted air
Hate made flesh
Submit and despair
Unclean lie
You cannot see
Your god is alone and
In death prays to me
Sin for sin
Zealot's slave
Unholy ghost
No one shall be saved
Butcher all
As I desire
Or wake in hell
To light your own funeral pyre
Martyrs wail
Prophets cry
Elysium waits
Leave no one alive
Hope is lost
Passions played
Innocents burn
For a god that I made
6. Lycanthropy and Desire
Cold eyes weary
Feel you grieving
Restless shadows
Darkness seething
Lights grow dim
Hear your breathing
Restless shadows
Darkness seething
Grind together
Smell of heat
Grinning sleepless
Gnash my teeth
Release this thirst I
Shed my skin
Cling to you
Let me in
Cold eyes weary
Feel you grieving
Restless shadows
Darkness seething
Lights grow dim
Hear your breathing
Restless shadows
Darkness seething
This mortal form
A shallow veil
I wake the wolf
I twitch my tail
Release this thirst I
Shed my skin
Cling to you
You let me in
7. The Book Of Fragments
The hell of my own corpse binding
Silver thread cut on ether wings drifting
The light and the night air tortured and blinding
The gift of a dark book unwinding
Pale form cools sleeping
Misery lingers forgotten wings fading
Lips press my fingers broken and bleeding
Your blasphemous prayers pleading
Withered petals fall
Velvet rain upon the floor
The tears that flow
You must let go
Pale form cools sleeping
Misery lingers forgotten wings fading
Lips press my fingers broken and bleeding
Your blasphemous prayers pleading
Withered petals fall
Velvet rain upon the floor
Pale form cools sleeping
Misery lingers forgotten wings fading
8. Circle Of Shadows
Run through the forest
entwined
Scattering wings
Lost in the dark
Hunted by nightmares
Spectres of true death
Now smelling blood squeal
and bark
Slip free out of the old trees
Clearing of earth
Last of the sun
Wand scribes in dirt
Circle of sanctum
All that is false be undone
Chorus
Bind this circle in shadows
By rite of pact
To my will be wed
Close this circle of shadows
Breath of the living
Voice of the dead
Cursing stopped at the rings
edge
Horrors' sharp wail
Thwarted they rave
One of them speaks
Sniffing the air
This ward is breached by a
grave
Chorus
Hidden under the soft ground
Mortals' bare grave
Lies under my seal
Bones of the dead
Long safe below
Now shine in twilight
revealed
Obscene ghouls begin howling
Over their fear
My spell is spoiled
I brace for death
But as they come
See corpses climb from the soil
Chorus
Bodies stand forming a circle
Palor of wax
Colder than snow
We are called
Out from the shadows
Evil outcast this circle we
close
Chorus
9. Worm Of Sorrow
Forever lost, endlessly untrue
All my sins I surrender to you
Drinking in the flood of laughter
Sinking through the earth like water
Trembling in your embrace
Promises hollow
This dying grace
The worm of sorrow
Ever empty, slowly fading to dust
This lurid sadness abandoned to lust
Drowning in corrosive candor
No secrets kept, no arcane glamour
Trembling in your embrace
Promises hollow
This dying grace
The worm of sorrow
Sleepless waiting, spent yet craving anew
Murmured weakness twisting the truth
Fire gutted sense of horror
Feel the serpent sliding under
Trembling in your embrace
Promises hollow
This dying grace
The worm of sorrow
Trembling in your embrace
Promises hollow
This dying grace
The worm of sorrow
Forever lost, endlessly untrue
All my sins I surrender to you
Drinking in the flood of laughter
Sinking through the earth like water
Trembling in your embrace
Promises hollow
This dying grace
The worm of sorrow
10. Night Terrors
