1. Fuil Ársa
Mairfidh ar bhfuil go deo
I gciorcal timpeall na cruinne
A dheite arsa... Ta ar Aine fºs ar lasadh
Tog muidne do mhuintir... Go siorai
An rud a eirionn ºn gcre
Fillfidh se aris
Ta na coillte suilta agam
Mhothainn na spirid... Mhothainn an phian
Ag tnuth
Le rich athoireacha seanda arsa, ar
Ard rithe
Le sui... I gcuimhne na glºire
Muintir na ndeithe
Muintir na nirt
Muintir na tola
Ag fi draoichta
Mealltach na cruinne
Oscallaionn se go fairsing dom
M'fhuil ge siorai
2. Infernal Summer
Her skin, so pale... shrouded in black
I drew down the veil, I wanted her back
I am at one with what never lived
I'll draw down the veil, and offer up what I have to give...
Shall you try and poison my words
At a summers funeral, I woke to the light
Shall you lay my bed with thorns
And clutch at me like you have done to life...?
Shall I be the chief mourner, in your procession
No stone lays unturned... (Rest in your grave)
I can no longer hear, silence calling your name
Or the choirs of ruin, lamemting your pain
3. Here I Am King
What am I but a thorn in your side?
Frost in summer, to chill your heart
A drifting memory of autumn decay
A shadowed soul in a fetter of light
An abyssic voice in purile mind... a fallen one
Wandering by the shores, of eternal sin...
The sun no longer shines here
Endless waves roll upon the endless shores
A sullen ship drifts upon the blackest tide
Beneath darkened boughs, no song is heard...
An endless forest where the devil's shadows play
...here I am King
I know no other world
I know no other...
For here I am King
And a King I shall stay...
Take my hand...
Imrama...
To an eternal infinity
Where the stars burn in my name
4. The Darkest Fire
You... gave me strenght to carry on
You... pass all wordly troubles unto me
You... gave my time meaning
You... left your sorrow for my soul
I love you
I need you
I want you
I live you
I am you
I... layed a thousand souls to rest
I... could be a martyr in their eyes
I... wished only for them to see
I... embraced where I once dwelled
I... lived for you
"If rape, arson, poison or the knife has
Wove no pleasing pattern upon this
Drab canvas we call life, it is because
We are not bold enough." (Baudelaire)
5. The Fires...
Funeral winds... caress the flame
The naked fire that soothes my flesh
In darkness I can ask for little more
Then a Samhain fire to lead the dead
Nocturnal everslumber procession
A gathering of such ancient souls
To see our brother to his journey's end
Into the darkness forever...
The frozen ground dances beneath us
Our path cross the barren lands
Burning torches lament
As fiery shadows dance
Across his gravebound face
Entombed in pagan earth
To rise in the cold November mist
We will haunt their pious dreams
In eternal black adore we kiss
Witchcraft has breathed death in my soul
To keep the darkest flame ever burning
6. Mealltach
Drifting in dreams of memory past
To pray to never wake
Or return to spiritless cages
That held me once before
So mant seasons I've seen
A heart as winter's cold...
To melt in a summer's passion
To forge a new things that have grown so old
My Gods need me now
I've sheltered beneath their sky
My life I would willingly give
For their return, it is but an honour to die
Seasons come and go
Children grow to die
Kings may come
And Kings may go
But our Gods shall rule the sky
7. Let the Sun Set on Life Forever
Dawn's cold passion filters through the trees
In darkness I showed you ecstacy
In darkness I took you from this world
Light shall never fall upon your face again
From spring I've waited for this winter's reap
I've watched you pass autumn's twilight yearning
Now with dawn I bring you eternal sleep
And silence all forever mourning...
Your blood looked so beautiful in the snow
I cried like a child...
All my life I waited for you
And with dusk's onset... I lay with you...
A cold embrace
A winter's kiss
Frozen blood upon my lips...
8. To the Ends of the Earth
I am the eye of the storm
Axis Mundi, I fall to my knees
I've realised my dark dreams, father
I have become... I spread my seed
Have I not brought you to these
Ends of the earth that I defy
No effigy shall fail me now
And no voice from the sky, shall deny me
I rode the four hate winds
From where I came, I could not name
I hear the colours and see the sounds
I arose from the east, and plagued
The lands of the same... I had no need
Of incantation, or enchantmant
You brought the end upon your world
Our world has no end... your's
Has just begun... now is torment
Now is forever... destiny unfurled
9. Beneath a Bronze Sky
10. Awaiting the Dawn...
Lilith my bride... a love of sin so deep
Wounds of lust won't ever heal
Stigmata... I yearn for thy crimson taste
Rape my senses... upon your cross I'll weep
But shall this longing I ever satiate
I writhe, I twist... convulse in ecstacy
Bring me to ritual, bring me to life
Fornicate, profanate, procreate... spawn of he who am I
Eternity, for your touch I'll pay
It is nights as black as this that have made me
Am I to pay the wage of sin...?
Beyond the stars a fire shall burn for me
I turn my face to a new age...
Lucifer... what tidings doth thou bring?
