1. Shroud
2. Infernal
Infernal
[words: Barthold, music: Barthold, Selin]
Seven are born
Their throne in the earthly deep
Seven goes down
In the mountains of the east
Infernal sons
Night falls dark
To hear the silence of your heart
Seven portend your pains
On the mourner´s day
Seven - the wrath of gods
Your body is carried away
Infernal sons
Night falls dark
To hear the silence of your heart
Seven they are
3. Solitary Fallen Angel
Solitary Fallen Angel
[Mårdstam, Höijerts, Barthold, Selin]
Man of thousand mysteries
Jack in green of misery
beheaded pheasants on the way he walks
Pretty princess ran away
Pretty princess came this way
Pretty princess never smiles again
Have you ever seen despair (this way)
lurking shadows near that lair
a bitter fairy tale
of the lord of the woods
Feel the heart of fire
here is no desire
the flames of fear
are burning higher
He rides a pitch-black unicorn
wishing he was never born
he’s the one to wear
the crown of thorns
And the lord wanders on
trough the rain and storm
all alone through
the bayous and the mountains
solitary fallen angel
one begotten son of sadness
4. Nightbloom
Nightbloom
[words: Barthold, music: Mårdstam, Barthold, Selin]
Seeding silence from words unspoken
As you slowly fade Symbols of lust, never be broken
But in the dawn you´ll wither away
Open up again as your body ascends
Wandering through forests of ebony
In your floral splendour cell
When the night comes over again
I´ll be back with you in hell
Open up again as your body ascends
To roam within all darkness
and flee from every light
Solitude is dying
as you flourish at night
5. Final Withering
Final Withering
[words: Barthold, music: Barthold, Selin]
The yearning for your blood
I would yield my death to you
Tonight under the moonlit sky
You will walk with me
Among the shadows
A romance
The nightly chill
The emerging of daylight until
Inaudible I take you away
Tonight under the moonlit sky
You will walk with me
Among the shadows
A romance, engendered
Tonight you will walk with me
Oh, the fall of night
Is like the rose deepest red
Fading
6. Shadowdance
Shadowdance
[words: Barthold, music: Barthold, Selin]
In this dance
The saltest kiss to embrace you
And take you to me
A silent opera to entwine you with darkness
As shadows are illuminated
And dusk is dying
You´ll fall from the grace of night
And you fell to me
A silent opera to entwine you with ecstasy
You wither to be reborn in my arms
Die with me
