 1. Sovereign
 
 Does praying bring a cure to your fear?
 And did it improve your pitiful existence?
 Don't you feel you are making yourself a part of the weakest kind?
 So you have chosen to be a slave,maybe stupid, maybe blind...
 
 We deny the elite, leaders of the weak
 No god we will fear, no cross we will lick
 Creating our own rules, we follow no book
 The truth is not written, so i draw it up with your blood.
 
 Wake up, or die by your own hand
 Those who are born slaves have just one way to be saved
 Burn it, the effigy of Christ
 Deny this book that has filled your mind with lies
 Anger let your heart breathe at last
 Freedom in our kingdom you will taste
 burn it the effigy of Christ
 Deny the holy book of lies.
 
 We have no masters, all sovereigns
 And we spit on the illegitimate rules
 We follow none but our own will
 We have not chosen to live in fear of
 The idol of weakness, a corpse on a cross
 The bastard son of a chimerical god will never lead us
 Eternally blinded by the odious masquerade
 You dance on the music which leads you to your grave.
 
 Your allegiance has destroyed all your willpower
 I see in you a caricature of existence, the tortures of freedom
 Now you are nothing, just the puppet of an illusion
 Slave of nothingness, worshipper of lies.
 
 When I see you celebrating the bereavement of reason
 When I hear ypour pathetic sob which sound resounds in the night
 When I smell your disgusting terror of death, terror of life
 When I feel the powerful feebleness which oozes out of your being.
 
 Hate becomes my mistress, the autocrat of my heart
 I dream of destruction, I wish your mutilation
 Wake up, or die by your own hand
 Those who are born slaves have just one way to be saved
 
 Hate becomes my mistress, the autocrat of my heart
 We prefer damnation, rather submission
 So we choose blasphemy as our way of life
 Slaves of weakness, we will never let in.
 
 
 
 
 2. Bewitched In Athanor's Tears
 
 Blessed is the embrace of hermes Trismegiste
 The ogerie of power through knowledge.
 
 Mystic mysteries have not resisted my assaults
 Soon, the atavism of the untiring will flow through my veins.
 
 Only the devil is missing to my realisation.
 
 And I lauch my call beyond the well of the seven seals,
 beyond the moor where the double headed worms reigns.
 
 Earth dust of oblivion
 Water gathering place of tears
 Air gates toward the invisible world
 Fire incarnation of Nemesis
 
 "I heard your call and I crossed the stream of fire"
 
 Now, my power is satisfied momentarily
 Knowledge offers me an opportunity of domination.
 
 
 
 
 3. Gods Of Lankhmar
 
 Shadow comes upon Nehwon's sky
 The conspirator will have to die
 Coming chaos inside Lankhmar
 Words of rebellion will lead to war
 They shall come, the guardian gods
 Bring justice through destruction
 They must awake from their sleep
 By the power of black magic.
 
 The priests, they sing....
 We hail thee, we, servants of the evil circle
 We hail thee, keepers gods of Lankhmar
 Bring the fire, justice through destruction.
 
 Their coming will cost many innocent deaths
 The price to pay for their immortal srength
 Mummified evil undead lords
 Kept alive by the magic of gods
 The throne of Lankhmar
 Remains ours....
 
 Through cannot kill what is not
 Touchable by mortal weapons
 Dead you will be before the rise of the sun.
 
 At times when the existence is only a memory
 And whereas the sky eludes his desperate torment,
 The old gods make fall a shroud of morning on the creation,
 Tearing the landscape of agony.
 
 Their faces you shall not see
 The blade will pierce your eyes and pain will be....
 
 Torture of your mind
 The only memory of your mortal life
 The vengence of these gods
 Is stronger than the most powerful strom.
 
 Slayer gods, keepers of the throne
 Bring us fire, purification
 Holocaust will be the only justice in this land
 Holocaust will be salvation for the feeble ones
 
 Those who are ready to die...
 
 
 
 
 4. Stronghold Of Witchery
 
 Crusaders walked on this sacred land
 Blessed by a gathring of sorcerers
 The eath cried, her heart bled
 Soiled by the presence of the dirt
 They came with their snivelling religion
 Burned this immaculate site
 Besmirched this majestic landscape
 All beauty faded with their coming.
 
 Crusaders were slaughtered at the great prestness's behest
 They were emptied of their blood and their viscous were a regal feast
 Witches built a great keep with the bones of the dastards
 Impious bastion of the brave
 In order to check the Christian invasion
 The black tower screams....
 
 The blood of the apocryphal knights, the lewdness of Christ's slaves
 Have given a soul to the dark tower
 It exists to keep black arts sheltered from the hordes of the factitious god
 See the splendour of our sovereign keep...
 Secret site of pagan rites
 Symbol of the war against the cursed invades of Christ.
 
 Lost in the mist, the last bastion will survives
 One day its hatred will glitter again...
 ...ad infinitum.
 
 
 
 
 5. Toward The Eternal Bliss (Instrumental)
 
 
 
 
 6. Maleficentia
 
 She has cried, tears of blood all night long
 Pregnant virgin, long before the age of Christ
 In a spring, she had met a male demon
 Incubus, he had raped her mind
 Mary was her name
 Though aware that she carried evil
 She could not resolve herself to kill him.
 
 The demon was born, she would not outlive his arrival
 But thanks to her, the most perfect creature was free
 He brought her back, gave her the shape of a demon
 A succubus, her beauty was close to perfection
 Maleficentia, they offered her a demonic name
 She was born, half demon, half goddess
 Queen of the damned, mother of the evil prince.
 Wind of horror blew, greetings to her arrival
 The demonic reigns upon the feeble humans began
 She stood motionless at the right of her son, the beast
 Insensitive to the pain that endured those who once were brothers of her.
 
 Maleficentia, queen of the damned, she will remain
 As the first day of her immortal life
 Maleficentia, spread your black wind across the land
 And burn the faces of those who cannot bear your sight.
 
 Once more she gave birth
 To a million of mutant beings
 Incestuous birth for she had copulated with the beast.
 
 With her, pain became an erotic game
 Her beauty split madness and her blood shed death
 Her kingdom was flesh, human blood flowed like a river
 Only strong minds reached to find her mercy
 Disease, war, were some of her tremendous weapons
 She usedthem to slay paltry mortals.
 
 A link of blood with filthy mankind
 Made her hatred for them grew stronger every time
 Her countless children fell down on earth
 Their only presence
 was a suffering for humanity
 Maleficentia, humanity has wounded her immacule heart
 Because of its unsightliness, because of its slightness
 Maleficentia, half demon, half goddess
 Queen of the damned, mother of the evil prince.
 
 Centuries passed, one day they felt asleep
 They felt the need to rest for new tortures to be dreamed of.
 
 A speel was cast, to keep them in eternal night
 But still they breathe and the prophecy foretells their return.
 
 
 
 
 7. The Ethereal Legion
 
 A battlefield at the time when the moon is rising
 An eagle sings for the enemy shall die
 War hymns echo in the night
 The voice of Death from the mouths of our knights
 Sword in the hand, with no fear we arrive
 We are pleased to crush the people of Christ
 
 End your prayers now, Christian shit
 Time has come for you to resent your belief
 Kill for annihilation
 You are the weakest blood, you shall die with your son
 We will eradicate your cursed churches
 Crucify you all after you are cut of.
 
 We are one with the beast
 We are one with the fallen angel.
 
 Bow down before us, your faith is lost
 Down on your knees, your life is ours
 Truckle to our splender, your torment is born.
 
 The army of the goat walks
 Another Christian village we will strike
 Rising above a mountain of skulls
 Mesmerized by the beauty of their dead bodies.
 
 Surrender now and your death will be quick
 Show resistance and we will torture you for eternity
 Kill with delight
 No mercy we feel when we hear your wiwes screaming
 Let your child be burnt, his blood spilling
 Let yourself be tempted by this dark evil feeling.
 
 
 
 
 8. Under The Banner Of Suffering
 
 Something in the sky begins to tremble
 Something in my eyes begins to burn
 Tearful shadows appear around me
 Death has moved, a taste of despair assails mankind
 They arise from beyond. Relentless legions, invisible death
 Sunset brings horrific revelations from an ancient age
 Sunset brings the final element for this forbidden summoning.
 
 The flag of blood streams in the wind
 They will build their kingdom on your ashes
 They are addicted to the joy of slaughter
 Viscous humans are their toys
 See this hole wide open on your torso
 See your bowels split in the dust.
 
 Lifeless
 bodies begin to pill up
 Wholesome madness begins quells my heart
 Dressed with the pain, I join them under the banner.
 
 Your beheaded child wanders among the burning ruins
 Screams of suffering are breaking free from his non existent mouth
 Your raped wife gives birth to the unutterable
 Bringing forth is for her mutilation.
 
 The flesh has become totally made
 My well being in boundless at the night of this ocean of corpses in mutation
 An eldritch chasms tears the sky
 Humanity's fate falls into nothingness
 
 See the kingdom of dust rising to the impious eyes
 Such a vulture rushing on his carrion
 See the chaos devouring the excrement on the altar of rancour.
