1. Maelstr鰉 2. Obscure 3. Lilith 4. Legions of Hades 5. Sea Of Darkness
1. Maelstr鰉
In the distant bare islands of Lofoten
Where high peaks rise above the dark sea
There's a grinding stream
Which runs in endless flow
Raging in fury
Is an ocean in my heart
As I see her ageless beauty
And the shinning eyes that set her apart
It's the Maelström
The awsome power of the Gods
Ineffable feelings engulfing me
And transcending my human nature
No sun shines
On this Sea of Darkness
Where huge waves of grief
Wreck men's dreams
So show me your dark side
And let me descend
Take me to, drag me to
The profoundness of your being
Let's sink
In this glassy ocean
In a sacred silence
In eternal motion
Through swirling waters
Forever descending
The two of us
Going down...
Oh! I see the moon
Been dragged down by the current's drift
In a vortex of chaos
Through an endless whirl
Bury me deep into your heart
Take me to your shrine
In the depths of the sea
2. Obscure
Obscured... by your shade
The sun is dead, my days are over
Standing still in a cold sleep
Full of dreams of clouds in the night sky
Eclipsed by a black wing
That takes me to the highest heaven
Where you dwell amongst the angels
In an everlasting state of beauty
Obscured... by your shade
The sun is dead, my days are over
Standing still in a cold sleep
Full of dreams of depths and maelströms
Blue´s the ocean of mistery
In which I dive to meet you
With dolphins and mermaids upon your feet
In an everlasting state of beauty
Obscure thoughts remind me of you
Wearing a crown of flowers
Obscure thoughts remind me of you
Dressed in snowy-white
Obscure thoughts remind me of you
Under the silver moonlight
Obscure thoughts remind me... you
Wearing a crown of flowers
In an everlasting state of beauty
3. Lilith
In my sombre room I stay
Staring into emptiness
Melancholy fills the air
As I realize She will never return
Mirrows are windows
Into Her World
I still remember that misty night
When She emerged from the great oval mirror
To haunt me in my dreams
And take me to the profoundness of Her being
Immersing in Her soul
Unveiling Her misteries
Her eyes are two views of infinity
Her absence drives me to insanity
Precious memories of the distant past
Now echo deep inside my mind
She's left me here with the taste
Of Her blood in my mouth
Precious memories
That grieve my heart
4. Legions of Hades
...And we end up here
In this Holy Land of endless unrest
By the waters of the Dead Sea
Finally we have finished our quest
Come down to the silent shores
Where dark waves kiss our feet
See the thousand armies gathering
Under the blood red sky
Hades...Hades
Legions of Hades
On the top of the highest tower
In the holy city of Jerusalem
The Angel of Death sits delighted
As he watches the slaughtering of defenceless people
In a cruel demonstration of power
They shoot fathers and their children
While the rest of the world is misinformed, misled and manipulated
Hades...Hades
Legions of Hades kill, destroy and lie
Hades...Hades
Legions of Hades kill, destroy and laugh
Let's cry for our freedom
From the Legions of Hades
From the ones who represent
The spirit of hate
5. Sea Of Darkness
