1. INTRO

(Instrumental)


2. ENSLAVE THE ASTRAL FORTRESS

The slench in the air
Is cold as a winter night
The loss of my inner guest
The fallen star faded away...

Deeper, deeper I sink
Into the embrace of sorrow
The winds of liars caresses me
Down here in the crying
Valley of the dreamers
Detest and yearning tears me apart

I can see the thousand points of light
Up in the burning sky
And I knew: it has to be done...

The salt of anquish
Fills my bleeding veins
My heart is pierced by it's falseness

Darkness...
The pride is defeated
Once again as I rise
I stand under a flaming sky

Deeper, deeper I sink
In hope to find the fallen star
And the secrets of the northern lights
Aurora Borealis, Stellae Trajectio
Take me
Never again...
Nothing forever...

I can see the thousand points of light
Up in the burning sky
And I knew: it had to be done...
And it seems like I'm swallowed
By it's mass of oblivion
And forever to be in flames...


3. SUNLESS DAWN

Hear the howlings in the night
I'm one with it's might
Enchanted by the calling cries
As I gaze into the sombre skies
Awaiting the shining,
The fire neverseen
Waiting for the darkened path which'll
Lead me straight
To the one who dance in my dreams

In surrounding flames
I must be wrapped

Wolves run by my side
As I walk towards eternity
In hate they'll gather with my shadows
As the moon arise

A scent of twilight
Into fading woods I march
I glimmer a shyness in the red
In eternal dreams I drown...

As the children of Fenris
Sang their fullmoon serenade
I made love to the midnight winds
The forest embraced me
With it's impurity
In ecstasy my tears fell
Like autumn silver rain

Now I stand above the human race
I've solved it all, the mystery of night
It's revealed to me
With a smile I see
These stars (unseen) formalion
That breeds my sunless dawn


4. THE ECLIPSE OF EMPIRE STORMS

The gate rose before him
In stood there open wide
A bloodstained portal of might
His travel to the land unknown

I awakened from this dismal dream
The same as thousand times before
This sight is so impure
So filled with mourning and with grace
It cries a message to me
Of which I cannot ever grip
A man and this enermous gate
With his name on it written in blood...

I fall to me kness
Spelling my name
To be unleashed, and ever blessed
The great beyond lies open in front of me

I could see the gate
Rise before my eyes
With a freezing smile
I entered the reign of death
I could see the truth
Like an open book
And then I knew
What I had become

I awakened from the dismal dream
The threshold to the dead
I've passed this enormous gate
With my name on it written in blood...

In blood... I fall to me knees
Spelling my name
To be unleashed, and ever blessed
The great beyond lies open in front of me
