1. CURSE THE SOUL

Dark horizon for my December soul
Dramatic serenades to be heard

Dark horizon for my December soul
Dramatic serenades to be heard
I am the lord of all the lost souls
Doomed to walk the earth
The light in my eyes no longer exists
It died on that night
The tragedies in my life still exists
In the deeper depths of this cold soul

Into slumber, into sleep...
We access the endless abyss
Once a king, now crowned the fool...
I am the king of fools
Agony, suffer in the souls of a thousand men
A blood dripping heart
For a moment
Stand still
Stands still
The torment howls in the night
Dark shades of the dark

Horror dwells underneath the skin
An endless masquerade
No rest for this wicked soul
Free from torture thoughts

Leave this world behind
Release this bitter soul
Heaven, oh, so cold
A darker place I'll see

Doomed to walk the earth
But I forever dwell
In the deepest of your mind
Where no one else can dwell

Leave this world behind
Release my bitter soul
Heaven, oh, so cold
A darker place I'll be
I am doomed to walk the earth
But I forever dwell
In the darkest of your mind
Where no one else can dwell

Better left among the dead
Cleansed from this dark earth
Soon I again shall arise
To a better world and life

Better left among the dead
Cleansed from this dark earth
Soon I again shall arise
To a better world and life


2. THE RIVER'S RAGE

Feel this river's rage
Tearing up your heart
Feel this river's rage
This river's rage

You say this world must end
I feel this world on my shoulders
Gather flames & alight your pyre
Burn your hands & feel the fire
Vanish in shadows I am leaving no trace
A wicked world on my shoulders to embrace
Yeah

A wicked world on my shoulders to embrace
In the blackest of night
A fear of sleep
Close my eyes now
Wide awake
Nightmares coming to haunt my soul

Repent & fall on your knees
Dark eyes
Horror inside
Deepest dreams you're still there
In hell I'll arrive with death by my side
Crushing claws right around my neck
A relief
Come to me now
The morning I welcome
Not dead in my sleep

Is this the moment of my death?
Or just another day I will live through
Is this the moment of my death?
Or just another day I will live through

You say this world must end
I feel this world on my shoulders
Gather flames & alight your pyre
Burn your hands & feel the fire
Vanish in shadows I am leaving no trace
A wicked world on my shoulders to embrace
Yeah

Digging for you
I am digging for you
The beauty of your grave
Deeper and deeper
Deeper and deeper
Earth coffins for the sinners
The hours of forever
Time's up for you
The hours of forever
Time's up for you

Feel your river's rage
Deep inside of you
Feel your river's rage
Too close to you
Feel your river's rage
Deep inside of you
Feel your river's rage
Too close to you


3. A DARK BURIAL

Celebrate
I celebrate the days of wrath
An age of new blood
A trail in the snow so pure & red
As I haul her to the lake

Dark desires
Kept deep in heart
Enter the dark
Beyond voices of mankind
Creeping, crawling towards the light
My face vanishes from your eyes

Close your eyes, welcome your god
My strong hands holding you down
Touch of death's angels filling your soul
Welcome the light of a new world

Howl water howl
Your tomb, calm & cold
Lay down
Let me guide you
Do as I say
Let the black water embrace you

Standing at death's door
Fire in my hands
Walk the path with serpents
Wash out the demons
The shadows of your soul
Of your soul

The cry of despair
Deep is your dirge
Weak and torn
I took your soul
Let you be mine, forever

Bring the nightmare
Close the chapter
A short breath, soon nothin' at all
The grim reaper
Me
Cloaked in dark
Your body sentenced to sleep go

The fear
still hide in your eyes
A roaring fire
Soon put to rest
Free now
Or forever in pains
The roaring fire
No longer in your chest

Bring the nightmare
Close the chapter
A short breath, soon nothin' at all
The grim reaper
Me
Cloaked in dark
Your body sentenced to sleep

Hands of horror, hands of death
The ecstasy
The risk in one kiss
The knife
Forced by the devil's touch
The serpent lives inside my soul
I sank into earth at the lakeside
I almost walked away, prayed for my sins


4. A MOURNER'S KISS

Curse the hours of the night
Sleepless nights
No other demons in sight
Apathy in a fading dream

Curse the hours of the night
Sleepless nights
No other demons in sight
Apathy in a fading dream
I am forlorn, I am left for dead

A mourners kiss

They ended weeping at my grave
Blame the cross around your neck
Cursed are now this cold earth
Let us return to the eve
All in tears
The night bright as heaven
Age of the heartless
This world shall burn
The hand of doom
Awake
Arise
Like creatures of the night
The hand of doom
Awake
Arise
Like creatures of the night
A thirst for the opium rose
In the kingdom of the fallen

The lost, the one with death in his eyes
Forthcoming damnation
A hunger, to become extinct
As I surrender to my eternal father
To be buried in thy hallowed earth
Bring justice to my soul
Formed in flesh
All evil
Mortal men
Mightier than god
Guard the key to the gates of hell
In the kingdom of the fallen
The lost, death from the skies
Forthcoming damnation

Guard the key to the gates of hell
In the kingdom of the fallen
The lost, death from the skies
Forthcoming damnation
Glory, glory to the brave
With solemn hearts we'll part
Not sympathy for the darkness
Not enigma night I will praise

Observe the wooden coffin
They weep & mourn for my soul
White lily's
Pale faces
Oh, hack! A tearful romance
Oh, he shall endure, by coming in the flesh
To a lustful life and to a cursed death


5. IN DARKNESS I SIGH

Read for me the words of the dead
Fathers of the dark
I stumble forth in misery
Read me the words of the dead

In darkness I sigh
Arrival of the fallen
A longing for the heavens
A night of burden
In darkness I sigh
Arrival of the fallen
A longing for the heavens
A night of burden

Remember the fallen
See them hang at the gallows
Remember the buried
Died for their forefathers sins

As I walk, the skies grew black
As I stopped and never looked back
For those once loyal
Yet so false
I sighed again & sealed my lips

Let us celebrate the dead
Let us celebrate this journey to the end
Let me enter the garden of delights

If I shall rise from the ashes
Bloodstained and hurt
The scars
Kisses of judas
They have been with me
With me from birth
Scream to me the words of the dead
Forge the fathers of the dark
If I stumble forth in misery
I read for you
The words of the dead
The words of the dead


6. OUROBOROS

Man and the animal are merely a passage and channel for food
A tomb for other animals
A heaven for the dead
Given life by the death of others
A coffer full of corruption
