5. Emerald Green
6. Deggael: A Rat's God
1. Dog Star A
I want to be high / As the suns that shine / All the time
2. Sol Niger
Under the sea / Dead cities in the dark / Dreaming themselves to be / Alive once more / And in darkened rooms / As vaulted tombs / We hear them call / As sea devours land / Towers yield to the sand
Oh shine on Black Sun upon all Carthage / As a disease on all fours risen from sea / Yea shine on Black Sun upon all Carthage / And that which never was shall always be
And I would see the world revolve / Around the crosses tips / Fleeing the sun / The vulture / Swooping down on a carrion / Laughing into the nothingness / That we flee / In mortal fear
Oh shine on Black Sun upon all Carthage / As a disease on all fours risen from sea / Yea shine on Black Sun upon all Carthage / And that which never was shall always be
For what is eternity / But a shoreless sea / One eternal day / That sees us come and move away
3. Somniferum
Down on the street / The night is a whore for dreams of fools / Where things of old / Still turn to gold / In hands of ghouls
Oh I would castrate you / A choir of the damned / To sing you songs of love / Of kisses cursed by the Dog star / And when the summer turns to fall I´d stay with you / Watching the leaves turn gold and grey outside your room
For here is juice of poppy bruised / With hemlock black and poisonous infused / Yea life is a witch / And then you fly
Somniferum
Down on the street / The neon spells out my true love / Oh how I fell for her kisses cold / On my skin as a tip of steel
Led by the angels white / Through gravestones blank and clean / On thru the pastures of green / I´d be all things that might have been
And where the angels fear to tread / I´d walk with you / For there is nothing that can harm a love that´s true
For here is juice of poppy bruised / With hemlock black and poisonous infused / Yea life is a witch / And then you fly
Somniferum
And death is not black / But snow white as charms / Treasured out of sight / Untouched by the August sun / Unto which all life must be undone / Oh in the end / Love, dream and death are one again
4. Omega Therion (v2)
or want of an angel / For all the lead that you thought you turned gold / There is something that you still want to know / Il Penseroso led you astray / To the woods and the wild / The pathless way / And you followed the trail that Shelley fared / Gazed on dead kings with your sullen despair / Even the dome of the rock in Blake´s city / Bore no trace of St. Augustine
And you studied Plotinus / Thrice great Trismegistos / Knew the reign of Hister and Niebelung / Nietzsche, Vril und Gotterdammerung
Do you want an angel / Heaven clad as the stars fell / Do you want an angel / Poison of god to make it well
For want of an angel / For all the blood that you turned into ink / You found yourself still searching / A Heosphoros for a Golden Dawn / A scarlet sunrise for Babalon / Someone to stop all the watches now / Someone to bring this shithouse down / All things must have an end / All things for all men
Oh forget the Tuesday baby / Let it be a doomsday baby / Come on and suck a megaton / Omega Therion
So it is time / Unbind the lines of horizon / Omega Therion / Take you away
5. Emerald Green
Darling / There is an angel / To teach you see / With the eyes of Emerald Green
For darling / All love is witchery / God forsaken deviltry / To draw our blood / For all world to drink
And love will come / And love will go / Oh suffer not a wish to live / For you can´t follow
And darling / There is an angel / To teach you wisdom of all Heaven / The pride of all Hell
For darling / All knowledge comes with pain / And all things are still the same / No matter what their name
And if nothing is true / More or less / The only truth must be / Nothingness
And darling / Be sure of the Devil / Be wary of knots / Tied as a ladder / Under a hill
For darling / There is an angel / To teach you see / With the eyes of Emerald Green
6. Deggael: A Rat's God
I took my fire upon a mountain / To mock all truth that flatters men / And I damned all hope / That tomorrow shows / For I cursed all life there is / As screaming ghosts / No heaven knows
And I want to be high / As the suns that shine / All the time
I took my fire upon a mountain / To sift through thoughts of all beasts and men / And I purged the gold / Thru which the world shall end / For I courted the Dragon / Yeah that old serpent
And I got to be high / As the suns that shine / All the time
And all of thee / Shall be drunk of me / Oh yes you will / I think I´m
Deggael
