1. REVIVAL - INTRO

I dream
I dream awake
I feel awake
After all these years
These thousands of years
The gaping chasm - it starts to pulse
Like never before
And wounds once scarred
Burst open wide

There is magic in each and every
Wave of a hand
Growing stronger by day
Getting darker by hour

I better not look you in the eye
So human, defenceless
Simple and sane
Godlike, craving, naked
Unquestioned, unrivalled, safe

I better not look you in the eye
Not in the eye...

2. CRIMSON HOURS

Verse :
Worms devoured the flesh
As words ate minds
Through sacred passages
Hypnotic rhymes
Tomes of deception
I wiped of dust
And cracked locks open
With demonic lust

Chorus :
It looms before me...
The light has been failing since dawn

Verse :
Pages ripped and ravaged
From their womb
Dark whispers echo screams
Of those entombed
This hand that scorched the book
And raped the halls
Will paint a manifest of war
On flaming walls

Chorus :
It looms before me...

Verse :
Noctiferous rites - bring me pain !
In blackened rain we rage
Unable to constrain
The furious joy the smell of blood
Brings for the insane
The hour's near, wreak havoc
Thus hope is vain

Destroy them all, burn them all
Tear down the walls
And let the darkness fall
In crimson hours we're alive once more
The flames will rise
Like thousands of years before

Re-chorus :
The light has been failing since dawn
The call for the darkness to fall

3. WHEN DEATH YOU TAKES

Verse :
The nature of macabre's been
Intriguing me since birth
Aesthetic wounds inflicted
Evil that walks the earth
What brings about malignance
Inevitable death
Hands that caress that slender neck
Till lungs are out of breath

Chorus :
Funeral cold is chilling mortal souls
Rejoyce ! Magnificent and old
No man survives the hour he wakes
Then morning breaks
And death you takes

Verse :
A slice across the arteria
So simple in effect
A mortal life evaporates
All vain in retrospect
That overwhelming frenzy
Dividing limb from limb
Despite the pleas for mercy
Magnificent and grim

Chorus :
Funeral cold...

Verse :
The nature of macabre's been
Intriguing me since birth
Aesthetic wounds inflicted
Lust suffocating earth
What brings about salvation
Inevitable death
Fangs that feast on slender necks
Till not a drop is left

4. MY PLAGUE UPON YOU

Verse :
Hand of hatred
Sweeps across the land
It crushes the bravery of Man
Once forgotten
Now feared to death
Woe to all who tried to make a stand

Fill :
Absolution - beg and plead !
Disillusionned - scream for me !

Verse :
Fiendish savior
Wields a flaming scythe
It pardons both blighted soul and mind
Piles of corpses
Left behind
Worship him, the leader of the blind

Fill :
All those questions - answered safe !
Once enlightened, mortals, tremble and despair !

Chorus :
My plague upon you
Spreading wings
Destroying dreams
And drowning screams
Welcome nowhere, enter void
Live in death you now enjoy
Reborn

Fill :
All those questions...

Chorus :
My plague upon you...

5. SPIRAL SWIRLS

Hold back your fire, it circles the trees
Where they will find you down on your knees
Away they look in fear and distrust
Feel for these mortals, for follow they must

Fill :
And the spiral that gave birth
To the manifold of failures
Swirls once more to make you complete
Swirls once more to make you complete

Verse :
Hold back your tongue, the venomous blade
It's clandestine magic can give you away
Away you took their mask of disgust
Away you shook the layer of rust

Chorus :
Burning poison flows through thee
Half unconcious drowning deep
In the morning though it dawns
You can dream on curtains drawn

Fill :
And the spiral that spat forth
The vengeful souls of angels
Swirls once more to beckon thee
Swirls once more to beckon thee

Verse :
Hold back your fire, it scorches their eyes
Watching the pyre, stripped of disguise
The wind blows away ashes and dust
Feel for these mortals, they'll follow your lust

Chorus :
Burning poison...

6. BLACK BREATH

Verse :
Furious wisdom rides a steed pitch-black
Onward it rides to claim the lost world back
Indeed ! What now is whole and complete
From dawn of time has suffered no defeat

Chorus :
Angel devious
Cold black breath
Wrath oblivious
To your death

Verse :
Perfection glorified with grief
Revealed a flash of darkight brief
Alas ! The pestilence to wipe mankind
Is idly waiting nowx for next birth divine

Chorus :
Angel devious...
Benefactress
Tattered wings
Soaked with justice
That she brings

Verse :
Demonic vengeance reaped all souls
Brought down with no apparent reason cold
Chimera and will to conquer all combined
Through everlasting death has us revived

Chorus :
Angel devious...

7. PULSE (INSTRUMENTAL)

8. SIRENS CALLING

Verse :
Sirens calling you ashore
Harbouring the bones of weary
And demanding more
Mouth concealing vicious teeth
Ocean finds another prey
And opens up it's jaws

Verse :
Hypothermia numbs your mind
Freezing waves rising high
Blotting out the sky
Icy fingers drag you down
Panic strikes, you cease to fight
And greet the salty mound

Chorus :
Vanquishing trumpets herald your fall
Legions salute you, ready to crawl
Claim your throne, join the feast
Worship yourself as you worshipped the beast

Verse :
Suffocation bursting lungs
Images - lifetime of failure
Pass before your eyes
There down under silence reigns
Tranquil depths of solitude
Where redemption lies

Chorus :
Vanquishing trumpets...

9. EI ÜHTEGI ORJA

(Not A Single Slave)

Tasaselt tund liigub elutööst ette
Mälestus suikub kui vajuvas vees
Enesekaitseks lood enesepette
Looritud pilk otsib juhendust eest
Sõnad ka suured ei varja selgrootust
Süda kui värvuksel väreleb sees
Sellegipoolest on ikka veel lootust
Ehk sinust viimaks kordki saab mees

Ei ühtegi orja !

Kätketud kõigis on elujõu säde
Võrdluses teeseldu tuhmub kui kuld
Säde lööb leekima, sütitab väge
Ihu ja hingega võta sest tuld
Kaua ta oodata enam ei läbe
Elu kui avatud raamat su ees
Kandikul tõde kui enam ei päde
Ehk sinust viimaks kordki saab mees

Ei ühtegi orja !

Ei ühtegi orja !
Tapke kõik teelt !

Veri kui varjutab taevalaotust
Vankuma lüüa võib mehine meel
Proovikiviks on raskeimgi kaotus
Enesekindlus tapku kõik teelt
Vaenukeeled kui unustad sootuks
Maailm saab mõtte su enese sees
Ja ma ei varjagi ärevat ootust
Sest sinust viimaks kordki saab mees
