1. DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR

(Instrumental)


2. ASTRAL

Why speak of myself when the world is infinite
It's the stars that are paradise in my dream
Not the mundane aspect that's you or me

In the visions of my expanding mind

I give myself up to the Unknown
As consciousness bathes in the twilight
The answers await my rebirth

As Earth turns away from the sun
A wolf's howl breaks the silence of the shadow
Beckoning our gaze above
To where the lights dance and play

We toast to a life fulfilled
Count the constellations
And begin to offer up ourselves
For the benefit of the night

The dark waves wash ashore
Reflections of the stars
In subtle colors, where our hearts
Long and will to be

But many of us can never ride on divine winds
The current will bear us toward oblivion
And we can only watch the night unfold
As the lights give way to the sun
Rising from disregard into tomorrow's unknown

Directional course leads to neglect
Of one's surroundings

Now witness the night give way to half tones
Cast out your aversions and open your mind
Like dream's paradise the oceans unite

We feel as one tonight
Aimless and free of disposition

We feel as one tonight


3. PAGAN WHEEL

The peasants of this world
Sow their fields with sorrow
And with their blood
An ancient order is preserved

This construction of suppression
This Pagan Wheel
Is obstructed from our sight
By faith and fear

Years of torment tear mankind apart
For they’re too weak to stop the thieving hands
From taking hold of their battered hearts
To stop the very beat
That keeps the soul alive
They see through blinded eyes
The drink the lies With faith
In their masters


4. NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM

With guiltless, bloody hands
We mold this earth like clay
Into our Grand Vision of Man
The Utopia of Disarray

Watching from the shadows
As you toil at our feet
For scraps from our table
We are the Swine Elite

Your fields are burning
Your lineage will fail
The wheel forever turning
You slave away to no avail
Our little beasts of burden
Marching to the abattoir
Your corpses fuel our Empire
I’ll crush you like the peasant that you are

Immerse yourself in sweet delusions all your life
Pretend to be content
The gluttony and mass confusion serve to hide
Our vicious true intent

We are your masters
Rulers of unwashed masses
Your labors feed our gluttony

Bow to me
At the Altar of the All-Seeing Eye

When will you learn that me you cannot slay?
Fools, fools
I spit upon your fire

We devour your freedom
In the name of security
A New World Order
Built up hypocrisy
There is no future
Untouched by our fallacy
We kings shall butcher
The sheep of democracy

With guiltless, bloody hands
We mold this earth like clay
Into our Grand Vision of Man
The Utopia of Disarray
Watching from the shadows
As you toil at our feet
For scraps from our table
We are the Swine Elite


5. TILL NORR

Never Again
Will I see the heathen lands
Never, to feel her warm embrace
Screams of children fade
An echo
Fleeing heedless into disgrace

When laughter fades from me
Flesh grows cold
And eyes grow clear
No rage, No cruel despair
No mourning, for the fear of loss

Longing shadows, left behind me
Desperate cries, of the lost
Mountain darkness, trees on fire
Heedless ever of the cost

Shadows take me, Darkness break me
Foot falls in to Bitter Frost
Green hills of home behind me
Dark, the village I once knew

The lone wolfs mournful cry can never
Bring me back, Till Norr again

Never Valhalla
No rest Till Norr
Kill all those
Who take my path

But arrival’s eyes
Bitter wind arise
I take the lives
Of those I knew

Forward step, and blade alight
Evil, my trail tonight
No exile I, nor a true man
Nor beast, just cold and shadow

Longing shadows, left behind me
Desperate cries, of the lost
Mountain darkness, trees on fire
Heedless ever of the cost

Shadows take me, Darkness break me
Foot falls in to Bitter Frost
Green hills of home behind me
Dark, the village I once knew

The lone wolfs mournful cry can never
Bring me back, Till Norr again


6. APOTHEOSIS

A man in the mist with great rigor runs
From atrophy and leaves no vestige
Nothing stops his stride
Nothing can hold him
No salving touch
No cataclysm

Chased by binding hands
Stalked by forfeit men
He struggles on despite all his wounds
With a burning soul and with inbuilt will
His torch goes dim
His self betrays him

The torch goes dim
And man deceives himself

God takes root in the minds of the weak
Looming darkness held by tainted minds
Prometheus plummeting to earth
Crushing senseless hands
To a silent death

Untold torment
Divine forgiveness
Blindly creeping souls sowing their shadows
Reaping solemn lies
Propagating forth
Divine progeny
The transmuting mist
The false prophets
Betrayers of man

Nothing

Nothing

Nothing is my lasting name
The cross I bear
Eternal shame
A warning heard
A cry betrayed
One last voice for man to blame

The road to hell is at your feet,
Do you not feel the searing...

Heat

Cast aside compassion's hold
Rip out your own heart
And become your own god

His torch goes dim
And man deceives himself
God takes root in the minds of the weak

Chaos in the heart, evil in the act
Lives past our bones, only silence dies
Only through freedom, only through pure will
Can gods be borne from the flesh of men

Let the tyrants feed, let the rabble grow
For when they fall on their bones we feast
For I am the god of apostasy
And I will eclipse all who oppose me

I will eclipse all who oppose me
From the flesh of gods I'll be borne
For I am the god of apostasy
I will eclipse all who oppose me


7. SIGNS THAT POINT TO NOWHERE

Bring me to the edge of time
Relinquish to the path of the dying

A brave new world
Is set ablaze
Corrosion strips down from the acid haze
Send me up beneath the void

The Void

The Void

Shattered by insanity
Lost illusions of the mind

Send me up beneath the void
This is where my eyes can dwell

On the axis of all things vile
None but the shining blackness
Can guide me through
The emptiness of existence

The scars between the stars bind with rage
Echoes the silence of wars I rage

Innocence wont save your life
Existence is a fault of mind

Foreboding images consume the sight
Banishing all streams from the light
Breaking your flesh for his cup of wine
Feasting, one last time
Forever

A brave new world
Is set ablaze
Corrosion strips down from the acid haze
Send me up beneath the void

The Void

The Void

Innocence wont save your life
Existence is a fault of mind

Foreboding images consume the sight
Banishing all streams from the light
Breaking your flesh for his cup of wine
Feasting, one last time
Forever

Shrouded by insanity
Of lost illusions of the mind
Confront the parallel visions
Of my reality

Surpass the expectations of life

It's the sign that points to nowhere


8. NEMESIS

(Instrumental)


9. VULNERE VIRTUS

Seek in me the seeker
Sing for me songs of glory

A life I've spent amongst the dreaming
My cistern filled
To threpe the masses

My pallid life
Sordid effusion
Caught in her gaze
Turned to torrid need

Your world has clenched close my heart
With my dying breath I take what's mine
All is mine

I've reclaimed my being
In the moments before dawn
Severed from my bondage I grow
To transcend the void

My sweet solipse
No longer endures
Even exile is pulled beneath your waves

Hands that still me
Arrant, predetermined
Sweet musing eyes
Incredible beauty

Through my love
My sanctum crushed
By desire
Beneath the tides
My soul weeps

Endless torment
To own my soul
My endless grief
From lips I adore
Feathered snow
On a longing wind
Melts as it falls
Sing for me


10. OPLEXICON I - SONS OF KOGAION

The Sons of Kogaion
Standing waiting at the door
Waiting for the sun to rise

Reappear and show the way
We await the dreaded day
Never, they say

Never they shall cry
Forever in the sky
Our glory is proclaimed in your death

Upon this mountain high
All mercy we deny
In this fortress of Kogaion

As they rush and storm the gate
We can hear the sound of fate
There was weeping and gnashing of teeth

He realized that he was late
No oil in his lamp
Pagan Marriage
A union on Kogaion

Never they shall cry
Forever in the sky
Our glory is proclaimed in your death

Upon this Mountain High
All mercy we deny
In this fortress of Kogian

In this fortress of Kogaion
The sons of Dalkuro
Gather for an attack against the lord of the northern sky
Burn Ecclesial


11. OPLEXICON II - SPEED OF HATE

The speed of hate and vengeance
They boil in my veins
Christ’s fucking disciples
Their church engulfed in flames

I’m focused on what’s told
What’s seen and what’s heard
Hypocrisy, Is his life’s blood
Ignorance, his rotting flesh

A crown of thorns, for the cursed Nazarene

Destruction, spoil and filth
We consummate our masters will

As our plagues sweep the land
We bind the cross in chains
Murder, rape and torture
Retribution for their faith

The remains of a land
Soiled by holy souls
The masses blinded by their lies
Christian hate, boiling in our veins

Another priest is dying
I stalked him like a Demon in the dark
Ignorantly, they could not see me

But they felt the destruction I unleashed
And the scattering of the flock
The confusion of the gentiles
The destruction of order

Bodies strewn and twitching
With the blood of the martyrs
Fertilize our pagan land.
With the speed of hate and vengeance

In the ashes of worship
I spit on the outlines of a cross
Liberate our pagan land
With the speed of hate and Vengeance

I’m focused on what’s told
What’s seen and what’s heard
Hypocrisy, Is his life’s blood
Ignorance, his rotting flesh

Cut down the tree of life,
Replace it with… the seed of hate

With hate in my heart
And steel in my hand
I ride with legions
And my steel strikes, strikes the holy lamb

With hate in our hearts
And steel in our hands
We ride as legion
And our steel strikes, strikes the holy lamb

With hate in our hearts


12. OPLEXICON III - WATERBOARD THE PLEASANTS

Are you ready to die?
The cross deceased
The devil lance impales
It's been far to long
The reign of hate
Are you ready to die?

Old mother destruction
Killed the father of creation
Unfair it is, how this board delights
My soul as I deal with peasants and the soiled things
And it's time for the reckoning
My soul is all around evil,
Cold, destructive calculating and the
Pain of water is inflicted on the simple

Are you ready to die?
The cross deceased
The devil lance impales
It's been far to long
The reign of hate
Are you ready to die?


13. OPLEXICON IV - ARROGANCE

Satan...

Destroy

My mind, my soul, my Arrogance,
With it I succeed

Comands for war, for terror
Ancient Warriors and spirits
Swords locked on the sky.

Raping your soul with my arrogance,
The master takes control of your life

Acid Rain!
Prepare For war
Nebuchadnezzar fell
A beast he was for seven years

Cursed god of the sky
Master of the cross
Count your losses well
Your legacy and crown are false

Destroy Cursed kings and knights
This is the dawn of Satan
Faith denied
Through realization
Burn Ecclesia

Arrogantly I count my yearnings
Casting lots for your robe
There's blood on my hands
Ive reclaimed my lands.

Light of this world
Consumed by your loss
Consumed by our darkness
Light of this world
Consumed by your loss
Consumed by our darkness

Sporadic change of events
The force you call Satan
Pagan pride
Instilled since birth

Forgotten savior
Rotting corpse on the cross
Denied by Zion
No souls lost

Sporadic change of events
The force you call Satan
Pagan pride
Instilled since birth

Forgotten savior
Rotting corpse on the cross
Denied by Zion
No souls lost

Acid Rain
Prepare For war
Nebuchadnezzar fell
A beast he was for seven years

Cursed god of the sky
Master of the cross
Count your losses well
Your legacy and crown are false

Destroy
