Midwinter Sorrow
05:06
|
|||
Icy fog rises once more
Under a mantle of blazing stars
Nocturnal sky's eternity
Embraces my (fevered) soul
If I could only reach to the skies
And bask in your grandeur
I'm left alone with this sorrow
Beneath grey trees
And destiny's derision
(I have felt) Your bewitching touch
Astral forests in fragrant vistas
Mountain-framed palaces
Memories grasp my being
Unending coldness
My dying steps
And always (as a distant savior)
Your eternity grows
Hear your call
Eternal
My prison
Framed by ice
Release me
From this decaying pit
Cruelest of stars
Come for me

Forgotten Dark Age
07:04
|

Come, unmistakable horror
Why must my kingdom fall?
When did perfidious stars
Decree the abyss?
The symbols of death
"Here be the achievement of my paths
Only sorrow at this corner of time"
Unending halls
Stained in brimstone
Into utter darkness
I command this forgotten dark age
The symbols of death
Embracing arms of the void
Sacrifices on stone
Signs under cruel skies
Flames rise
Howls of despair
Into this prison of life
Frozen in time
By the winds of horror
Alcorath
Thou blinding all light
Just for once
Cease my sorrow

Beneath the Crimson Moon
05:40
|
|||
Into a forbidden land
A deep and immutable curse
Cruel night decreed
The hunt has begun
Spectral shades on the walls
Walk black paths
In mourning
Hunting eyes
Within red fog
Beneath the crimson moon
Blood in rivers run
Oh! Sweet blood
Offering of extasis
As always
As never
Beneath the crimson moon
Blood in rivers run
Into the forbidden night
Under claws of stone
The hunt has begun

Black Eternal Tides
06:10
|
|||
Behold mist of the centuries
Through primeval mountains
I became one with eternity
I was that wich lies still
From the edge of dead worlds
To the uncreated
I fell and rose for thousand times
I became one with eternity
Seas of unknown horrors
I sailed without light nor guide
I sailed without light
Remembrance of things to come
That which lies undone
Beholding life in translucent spheres
Everything kneeled before me
As above, so it was in the depths
Always the unending ruin
Immutable doom
In each of my vistas
Endless (as they are)
I saw its hand
As the universe screamed
"Eternal Evil"
