1. Into The Domain Beyond All Horizons
Into The Domain Beyond All HorizonsEternal in my shapeless form I reach the dark domain Soaring above these lands of torture Fragments of eternity disappear as sunlight fades, Rearranging to ephemeral darkened silhouettes Reborn in bacchanalia of diabolical shades Chariotry of Righteous Wrath splits the nightly sky In exposed midnight vault Crimson tears of wisdom embrace these mighty warriors Their thoughts coloured in black, Bitter dreams cast in despondency... I behold the moonrise and make up my farewell song Drowned among the fierceful lunar waves of blessed Nocturnal Sea... My feelings are numb, though I scent another scarlet dawn And everflaming solar hatred burning restlessly... Walk into my affliction and see my despair Fly with me, beyond the gates of Death Herself - Into the domain beyond all horizons...
2. Mists Of Eternity
Mists Of EternityAlgol, to Thee I sing my song Oh star of Evil and obscene light, Perpetual in your seductive nothingness Grant me thy power, grant me thy all-devouring might... For I am a feeble human soul Itching for the planetary rule To become one with the Elements... To hover above the Cosmic seas eternally... From the depths of my darkest nightmares Reincarnated, I rise again... Conceiving the glorious future awaiting me Far beyond the limits of earthly fancies Within the dominions enslaved by torment Thousand human cries sound so sweet... Their tears run dry Crimson limbs, crowned with suffering Enthroned through embalmment... Pale forespoken skies turn black again and forever Sunset is near, nightfall comes - my desired destiny Silhouettes clothed in twilight crawl into my burial dream Rulers of the visionary land, they endow me with their ecstasy I wither and behold the clouded landscapes grow dim... Lost is my visual form, forgotten is my former life Now I'm at one with mists of eternity...
3. The Spectral Prophecy
The Spectral Prophecy(narration): «The Old Ones were, the Old Ones are and the Old Ones shall be From the dark stars They came before man was born, Unseen and loathsome They descended to primal earth...» * Among the underwater gardens filled with grief Beyond the astral landscapes so dark and sorrowful Where no vital creature may abode and live A ghastly shadow rises from the deepest caverns Of once forgotten R'lyeh... (narration): «Wantonly the Old Ones trod the ways of darkness And Their blasphemies were great upon the Earth All creation bowed beneath Their might And knew Them for Their wickedness...» * Cloaked in the fiery sombre mists, The Cthulhu's essense sweeps along the dying Tellus, No man's eye can see His visual form and rejoice of further living... Floating through the pale abyssic eclipse, Through forbidden formulas He summons the Darkest One...
4. The Forlorn Existence Of Soul Divine
The Forlorn Existence Of Soul DivineAlone and sorrowful, the divine essense crawls Along the dying remains of heavenly kingdom Once adorned and now forlorn, Questioning anything, but meaningless and painful Bitter memories of past apocryphal superiority, Flesh and soul now departed in more than racking way... Necromantic lust for vital pleasures and devilish desires, For precious taste of blood and sulphur throne of wisdom... Sinful and infidel in spirit, With bloodstained sword It once joined the battle for the Divine's triumph For salvation and a glory of the Heaven's Lord... Forgotten and betrayed, it wanders through infinity, Alone and tearless... Enchanting odes from the distant woods so vast Cherish it's neverending pain, encircling in oblivion... Detested is the dying surface of the earth Surreal and naked is it's torturing tristesse The mournful silence is so sweet... (narration): «And then the martyr-soul descended Into the very depths of Heddenah's gardens Through the enflamed spheres it ascended Lusting for revenge... Countless centuries will pass And some day the betrayal is avenged For every sin shall be atoned For every pain shall find it's rest...»
5. ...Of Shadowy Exaltation (When Night Blackens With Storm)
... Of Shadowy Exaltation (When Night Blackens With Storm)Flagellating your pale cold skin, I desire for more Beholding those deep bleeding wounds I wish I could return you back to life To start my feast all over again... Whip bleeds my own skin now fiercefully I expect the pain, although it passes away Leaving me in utter bitterness I await the night, when I may spread my wings And reach the skies far above the wooden pantheon... I await the night and the storm it brings To conquer these lands of pride and joy To blacken their souls and deprave their minds... I'm true and faithful servant of those Who came here long before the earth was born I'm their messanger and archangel Condemned to dwell behind these burning gates Of sullen silent spheres... I know not if I'm a vital being But it should be so, since I scent the honied blood of females... I lick them, rape them, slaughter them... Wretched pathetic humans... I make them weep, make them shriek and ask forgiveness... Seeking delight in pain and suffering, oh so sweet... (whisper): When sun sets beyond the snowy mountains And wolves howl at the fullmoon Crescent skies tumble into glowing shade of agony, So bizarre... The shadowy inmaterial spectres invite me To join their exalted hellish dance The night blackens with storm, breed by Ancient Ones And I lust for their return more than ever before...
6. Imperium Tenebrarum
Imperium TenebrarumHollow voices surround the space around the cromlech In evil tongues they speak, grim are their aims The storm rages near, ruthless in it's anger The prophecy once spoken now should be fulfilled... The altar of invocation awaits it's victim Whispering once forgotten prayers, forbidden and concealed Abyssic spirits haunt the hellish winds among the solitary virtue The last chronicle is finally revealed... Through vast enchanting woods I stray in pride Lamentation of pure bestiality, Emptiness, my beloved and scarlet bride Bleeding, starving - among symbolic immortality... Child of sunset, descendant of lunar tribes Darkness was upon the mystic birth of my funeral Cold and senseless grave became my shining bed As I began my quest towards twilight, the ever-first and primeval... Anxious visions, danse macabre of universal mind Woe to you, dwellers of this once so peaceful planet! The blackened shadows grow longer and longer, night by night, As the ensemble of pre-apocalyptic silence... Time has stopped and the sunlight ceased Awakened is the lord with horns, mighty messenger of darkness For the Dark Reign comes forth the Tellus... Descending through the space, riding the icewinds Grotesque demon army, enormous in it's number Has come to conquer and enslave, To burn the sinistrous wastelands out of earth And await the fall of their gods...
7. Portals Of Chaos (The Final Transmigration)
Portals Of Chaos (The Final Transmigration)The hammer falls, breeding awe-inspiring wickedness Ephemeral in it's regressive condemnation Pulsating protoplasma rages upon the burning ocean Mirroring the further mental transmigration... The crescent moon grows old And airy castles made of glaring starlight Endure the utter suffering Sparkling in this moonless winternight (narration): The consuming parallels are broken, Perished are the chambers of Utopia... Sacrilegious and hidden, transenflamed and disgorged Into portals of chaos the Space emerges...
