Lyrics

1. ...IN THE MIST

Slow my feet are
Frozen their veins
Still closing helplessly afar
Waking the creatures within

I am a lonely traveller awaiting to sleep
Eternally under those cold woods
As my fall brings then

Shadows of their wings as howling their
Pleads wounded, I lay on ground
Listening their needs

It's dark and cold and they fly slowly and
They know surely they raped my soul


2. WOUNDHEIR

Wound was the heir, the ruler within fire
Closed my page, as hatred reigned higher I
Did notice a knife and hills covered with
Blood, was I the one who's life is most pre-
cious to this new "god"

Indeed I must be loved, for I killed many
Thousands I opened with highest fashion,
Pain didn't spare any of these pitiful hu-
mans, that the wholeearth is covered with
Tempest and storm of urbans lay bleeding
And kissing my beloved feet

Shall I not wait for the greatest hour when
This god sees the bloody shower


3. SHADOWED DREAMS

In here, every shadow in the ground passes
me by... slow...
Flickering above me.
And silently they (like in a dream) growl over
me...
Be-witched I do follow their beautiful ways,
Beside tis wintry frozen palace.
Take me to another world, to another conscious-
ness...
Away of this time.
And they do arose me...
And I do watch...
With broken eyes how this weather...
Forever will stay...
In my frozen heart...


4. DAWN INTO THE STREAM

This day travels within dense mist and
woke this clearer sight as the birth of the
night were seen...
Though my mind wandered like a stream beside,
Carressing a sigh...
Fading afar...
Closing me in, to astray.
Still motionless I am,
I carry the seeds of horror inside me.
This pain...
Grows in me and try to reach the other side...
Infinity of dreams...
And they all - each side in me -
Are listening myself and my mind blacken...
Fading like that gone sigh...
And I fall...
Down into the stream...


5. SYLVAN-NIGHT

Sweet bleak bliss of these pale mists pass...
And I watch in trance how this weather's
wind howls between the trees...
And how these last signs of light smoothly dances within...
Trying to ease this dark burden...
Just let me emerge in and touch sylvan-night...
Carefully they caress me and touch gently...
Though my worlds are not spoken here and
never revealed...
I do dream this in myself
As I'm painfully wrapped in leaves...
