PRIMORDIAL LYRICS
"The Burning Season" (1999 EP)
1. The Calling
2. Among the Lazarae
3. The Burning Season
4. ...and the Sun Set on Life Forever
1. The Calling
Brothers and sisters
Descendants of gods
Forge a new destiny
In accordance with your will
Fan the flames of change
Sweep away stagnation
Purge what went before
And claim
What is rightfully yours...
2. Among the Lazarae
Ceremonial beauty beneath a bitter moon
Perditious souls danse their danse
Winter withered silence were once my tomb
In eternal frost, a dark romance
Listen, such angels of the end do weep
As knowledge comes for those who watch ever
Wrapped beneath the boughs of fateless sleep
Dismal dreams of paradise come never
The sky shall flow as waterfalls of distress
I, wandered in the midst of shades
O' heaven sent mysteries of hell's caress
Blind my eyes before my vision fades
I have envisaged the harvest moon
The summer of eternal reap
...has come...
Solomon's wisdom
Anastasis Christou
The harvest shall come
Ride the red dawn
Thralldom...
In repentent paths
Iconoclasm...
Opens new gates for you
"I will strike at the shepherd,
And the sheep will be scattered"
Turn my blood to wine
And I will drink to you
Open my veins for your soul
Light blind my eyes
I built my
Gallows with
Such a visionary
Conquest...
Conquerer of
Such perversion
As to remain
Unameable...
3. The Burning Season
Bring the women
and children before me
Let us make rivers of their blood
Bleed for me... I wish it so
and streams shall meet such rivers
and seaward they shall flow
See the shoreline scattered
with their precious skulls
See the tide come in
as blood to meet their bone
A grotesque promise
Beneath a crimson sky... a seasons birth
We'll drown the newborn like unwanted dogs
and condemn them to their desperate gods
We'll take a needle, to the arm of the world
For it is our season
We'll burn the temples, of the righteous
Rend them as ashes, to the four winds
As ashes... to the four winds
The winds of a new season
4. ...and 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...
