1. The March of the War Elephants
"I have seen them, and I will never forget..."
2. The Festival
I carry on, I can hear the eastern sea.
Under the hill, the city sleeps in silent wintertime.
How many times have I walked this bridge across the stream?
Yet, in my mind I know I never walked this road before.
Deep in my dreams lies horror for the books that should not be.
There is no one to keep those dreams locked deep inside of me.
How can this be? My father did not mention any tunnels.
Descending slowly, with creatures that should crawl instead of walk.
Oh Lord, have mercy on my soul!
3. The Goddess of Doom
There is the one up there.
There is the one down there.
There is the one, who is everywhere.
I believe I was brought here
to spread my Doom in this world of fear.
The one who breathed this life-force into me
was the Goddess of Doom, Christina Ricci.
Aeons ago, she was born
into the middle of the endless forlorn.
In silence and space, infinity,
stood the Goddess of Doom. The supreme entity.
Saint Vitus and Trouble, Witchfinder General,
Count Raven, The Obsessed and Pentagram,
Solitude Aeturnus and Candlemass,
Penance, Revelation, Solstice and Iron Man,
Mirror of Deception and Pagan Altar,
Cirith Ungol, Exitus and Scald,
Internal Void, Paul Chain and Warning,
Unorthodox, Cathedral and Cold Mourning.
While Heaven Wept and Minotauri,
Dawn of Winter, Spiritus Mortis,
Electric Wizard, Confessor, Stillborn,
Solomon Kane, Orodruin and Mourn.
We kneel at your altar, we bless thy holy names.
You gave Doom to men, we try to do the same.
But there is one, who is above you:
eternally hailed Goddess of Doom.
Hail to the Goddess, the Goddess of Doom,
who tunes our instruments with darkness and gloom.
The one who does not offer salvation or peace,
but fulfils our minds with luxurious disease.
Hail to the Goddess, the Goddess of Doom,
who tunes our instruments with darkness and gloom.
Hail to the Goddess, the Goddess of Doom.
In the depths of darkness evil flowers bloom.
Hail to the Goddess, the Goddess of Doom!
4. Aleister
One man came among the men,
wisdom within: the truth!
The rituals of the Elder Gods,
far before the Christ who failed.
But the common men couldn't understand.
In their eyes he was damned.
He was forced to leave his fatherland,
but the curse was cast upon them all.
This one man changed our world
with his new doctrine of Will,
and now we walk at the footsteps of
this magnificent man. To Mega Therion!
Oh yeah!
5. For You Who Walk in the Land of the Shadows
Do you walk in the land of the shadows?
Do you walk in the land of the shadows?
Do you walk in the land of the shadows?
I think you do...
I have been there too.
I have seen a black figure walking there with someone like you.
Oh!
6. Dark Sorceress (Autumn Siege) (Barathrum cover)
Castle stands on the island of stone
It is surrounded by dark waters
Centuries on its place
For centuries more it shall do the same
Its history so cruel
The fort was cursed by eerie doom
There's a witch enclosed into the wall
No one knows exact place where
There's a tree on the wall
More than thirty feet tall
It is said its roots
Grew from the heart of sorceress
Every night she haunts
On the corridors of fort
Her restless soul
Wanders in those huge halls
Autumn long time ago
The colossal stone fort
Inside that dark walled castle
Beautiful young female dwelt
Dark Sorceress, Daughter of the castle lord
Dark Sorceress, Worshipper of the Ramlord
Dark witch used black magic
Gestic magic in the war
In war against warriors
Wielders of the curved sabres
Dark Sorceress, Daughter of the castle lord
Dark Sorceress, Worshipper of the Ramlord
Another stormy night during that autumn of fights
The enemy broke the gates and came with their sharp blades
Sorceress casted the spell to protect the castle
She performed her rite against intruders with sabres
Sky turned to dark
The sorceress drew the mark
Mark of the Ramlord in the air
Strongest thunderstorm was created
Lightnings everywhere
Electricity in the air
Lightning casted the shadow
Of the Ramlord onto the wall
Enemy saw that shape
And because of that they escaped
The shadow of the Ramlord
On the wall of black powered fort
(Behold) Dark Sorceress, Daughter of the castle lord
(Hark) Dark Sorceress, Worshipper of the Ramlord...!
7. The Wrath of the War Elephants
Overwhelming force
of pure destruction.
Crushing tyranny.
Steaming sweat.
Strength maximum.
Horror triumphant.
Where they roam,
all life is gone.
A beast unlike any other.
The daughter stands by the mother.
Like thunder the heavy blow.
Terror rules the front row.
