1. Tales...

Smell the taste and feel the sky
controlled by lust you can't defy.

Beyond these skies, lies the world
that we once knewe and passed all through.
A dying world, filled with hate
a world that we all devastate.

There... On the other side, there are laws which they do not
follow
Here... On the other side, I am the only God I know.

Now your time has come to die, now it's time to say goodbye.

Life ends... Blown into oblivion.

Seek the light and pass away, show your soul another day.

Here exists no hatred, here exists no love,
here exists no prayers, to some God above!

My last word will be short. Heading for my mind's resort.
The final sound a smell to see. Pieces of what's eant to be.

Here... On the other side, I am the one I am the godly
There... On the other side, a world is drowned in flames.

Now your time has come to die, and there is no reason why!

Vacant graves. Now refilled, nothing left of what we built.

You can't live forever, but can you be dead forever???

NO!!! The salvation to our planet was to blow it all away.
I saw the people pray, so this is the beginning.
(From) the beginning to the end, now there's no world to de-
fend.

Seek the light and pass away, show your soul another day




2. Human Aberration

Thirty years have passed
since my dying day.
My life went to fast,
from birth to my decay.

Decomposition of my body.
Abeyance in my grave.
Time has maimed my flesh,
I've addled in my cave.

Paralized...
By the morbid fact:
I'm alive...
But my skull is cracked!!

I feel no aggrieve,
no smell of my putrid carcass.
Human aberration,
let me die again!!!

Let me die again!
Let me die again!




3. Enigma

[Psalm 1 'The Blessing']

[The Priest:]
Confess your sins to God, don't be afraid.
Just like me of flesh and blood you're
made. I can heal your wounds and cleanse
your soul, but never return all those
lives you stole.
[The Witch:]
'You can burn in hell'
[The Preacher]
God gives you shelter at heavens shore,
abandon your thoughts to the mighty.
Into the chapel of holyness, live for the
sacred empire, engender the Enigma.
[The Unorthodox]
Sacerdotal majesty, a recreant nonentity?
Do you remember when you said.
[The Priest]
I can heal the dead.
[The Unorthodox]
Paroxysmal ecstacy, dementia or deity?
Sapless you are crawling, to confess
your sins?

[Psalm 2 'Celestial Dissension']

The further side, a confounded lie,
panegyration a reunion of riddles? The
sorrow, the funeral truth, mentally
fraud wih pseudo relics, enigma, unholy,
ungodly, commander of the regeneration.
Insidious and caught, implored by disgra-
ce. Inhumation... The burial of man. Con-
fession... Unify all evil. Deep inside, the
unknown quest, the sphere is so depres-
sed, a harp with broken strings, and the gro-
und, this mazy world do still exist, the
ghouls arise from the mist. Renascent
through the holy scripture, submission
to what for us is illusion. From the tene-
brous depths of history, who will divulge
the mystery. Unguiculated, unholy,
ungodly, commander of the regenerati-
on, insidious and caught, implored by dis-
grace, inhumation... The burial of man,
comfession... Unify all evil.

[Psalm 3 'The Loss of Hallowed Life']

Ha, ha, ha, haoow.




4. In the Veins / Darker Than Black

(...eye can see you) Look into my eyes, what
do you see? I'm not man, I am no demon. I
color you red, my murder's fuckin' art
son of the dead. I was never born. I send
you back to pre-birth. Beyond this life
you shall dwell. I'm your fuckin' saviour
suffer my everlasting pain. Don't even
think about dying, you poor excuse of a
human being, in the veins of evil, black
blood flow eternally. This sabbath of
sickness; proves my soul's bizarr. The
master of morbidity, my cuts don't leave
scars. Endless temptation to sicken the
blessed, I swallow your heart as I carve in
your flesh... In your flesh! Born of the
dead, I am blasphemy. I'll end your fanta-
sies, save you from mankind just like
lambs to the slaughter. God made you
blind, darker than black. I am the serpent
of Eden... Eden. I've tasted the herbs of
lust and desire. I am no enemy, I drain
you of life and leave you in fire... Fire. In
the veins.




5. Lost

I have seen eternity
I am the king of time
I am off the Edge of Sanity
My living ain't no crime
A soldier of existence
chosen to be
Protector of the earth
I'll last eternally
I awake into another sphere
reborn into the neverwhere
All alone in this space
There's no love nor disgrace
My body aches, I tremble with fear
The sky, the last I saw is no longer clear
Water and ice cover the ground
I can face reality, the world has drowned
I try to move but I am caged in ice
Floating bodies looking for their paradise
But the truth is no longer fantasy
in this world I am the only man to be.

[Chorus:] I AM LOST, I WAS NEVER CREATED
I AM LOST, lIFE IS DEVASTATED

We melt away and I feel the mud
that once was land for all
the sea of ice that used to be
the home of humanity
My soul is frozen, longing for fire
I barely believe I see this sight
All I can face is eternal night.
The sun awakes and shine on all the remains
The ice that encaged my body now flows in strains
Soon I can move, and walk away
What the future brings, who can say?

[chorus]

Eternal eyes, I can see the sky.
My lonely cries, I want my soul to die.
I am all alone, the world will now reform.
I'm born again, once cold sun now keeps me warm.

[chorus]




6. The Masque

Behind these eyes lies a mind
controlled by the thrill of a kill.
They've put a price on your head,
you don't mind you got a dream to fulfill.
It satisfies your every need, there's no
way you will stop. A normal man in a
normal world. A disguise that you'll never drop.

[Chorus:] Belated you lie
Innocent, innocent you die.
As sure as sunrise, as sure as tide
new blood will flow before the old has dried
Helpless you cry
Innocent, innocent you die.
The living nightmare has been released
His evil forces have been unleashed.

Another scene, the truth is so mean.
You blow out another human candle.
To dissevere a dead cold body.
To dominate, to devastate, psycho!
Do you love to twist their dreams?
Do you come when you hear their screams?
Do you covet their lifeless limb?
The world is shocked, the cage is locked, forever.
The dismal truth, so hard to face,
we're running out of time.
He loves the world, where he is king,
where he does whatever he pleases!
In his mind, he is God. Sacrifices in human blood
His sickened art is holy deeds.
Examined piece by piece.

[chorus]




7. Until Eternity Ends

Waiting for something to come out of the dark
I know I have seen him, his presence is cold
Wherever he's moving, he's leaving his mark
Thunder and lightening strikes, and hell unfolds

Ruler of shadows is coming to cross
the open fields where his soldiers faught
No sign of sadness no remorse for the loss
he's in command of the souls that he's caught

the flowers will wither and the air will be dry
the king of the dark side will goodness defy
starlight will fade and the sun will turn black
clouds will explode and the surface will crack

He will rule until eternity ends
He will rule until eternity ends
king of fire

the darkness will swallow, all life will be dead
there's no solution into death you'll be led
the fire and the odour of burning remains
mother earth is fading trembling in pains

the leaves have now fallen
buried in the soil
the water in the oceans is starting to boil
sunlight is killing - hell in advance
onto the dead earth the devils will dance

He will rule until eternity ends
He will rule until eternity ends
king of fire

Now I am here at the end of my days
I feel the lord move in mysterious ways
Now I can feel this is the end for this place
I feel the lord will be giving no grace

He will rule until eternity ends
He will rule until eternity ends
king of fire




8. Eternal Eclipse

I hate humanity and I will not hesitate to kill!
There's been this hatred since my birth, and I can feel it still
Deep inside my cold heart I am yearning to slay
And hence I know the law I know there's a better way

Only in the darkness, only in the anti-light
Can there be some silence in my mind
Praying to the darkest angels time and time again
Divided I will see what makes me blind

Light turns black, and there's no turning back
From the eternal eclipse!
My eyes discover blackened skies
Oh the eternal eclipse!
Turns black and there's no turning back!
From the eternal eclipse!
My eyes discover blackened skies!

All crowded places makes me wanna go berserk
But instead I'm killing, in the darkness I will lurk
Laying in my bed at night I love the dark I see
Wishing hoping that some day it will last eternally

Mighty forces of the dark of this dream of mine
await what magic darkness will enshrine

Night comes back and light will turn to black
With the eternal eclipse!
I see the mortals' destiny
oh, the eternal eclipse!
Comes back and light will turn to black
With the eternal eclipse!
I've seen the mortals' destiny!




9. Twilight

I close your eyes and whisper "Goodbye".
You will never see how I cry.
I can recall what you said to me once:
"If I leave there will be a sign"
And the twilight will show me tonight.

From dusk to dawn. That's when we arise.
All souls forlorn, come down from the skies.
We're called the mist by the human race.
But we do exist in a million ways.

OH I'M IN THE TWILIGHT WORLD TONIGHT
AND I OBEY THE MOON.
I'M IN THE TWILIGHT WORLD TONIGHT.
THE MIST WILL DANCE AND THE ELVES WILL SING THEIR CROON.

My eyes will not believe the sight.
They dance in trance this magic night.
The sound that did enchant my ears.
I feel my eyes release the tears.
I know the answer now. To die, I an
no longer afraid somehow. And now I know
that there is another way for me to go.
And now they show that there is life in the afterglow.
I can feel the presence of the unknown side.
The shivers infest my body. This cannot be denied.

OH, WE'RE IN THE TWILIGHT WORLD TONIGHT...

No way! This can't be a dream!
I pinched my skin to make sure I was awake.
What I see might be too much to take.
The dance in a circle above the ground
and I can see you and it looks like you're still alive.
Somehow you seem so relieved.
A nightbird chasing the shadows fly right through your body
and then I know that you don't really exist.
You're just a reflection in this midsummer dance.
I feel my heart pounding faster ever than before,
I must have stopped breathing. The image of you fade.
And now I know why had the strong feeling that I must find
this place you once described and to see your final dance.
Will we ever meet again? No!

OH, YOU'RE IN THE TWILIGHT WORLD TONIGHT...

They fade away and so do I.
You're gone, I'll always wonder why you came
and made me realize that you exist there in the twilight sky.

Is this a dream or plain reality?
It feels more like a trip to what I never thought I'd see.
Suddenly fear took a hold on my mind.
I had to move away unless I would go blind.

OH, YOU'RE IN THE TWILIGHT WORLD TONIGHT...

I, I know the answer now.
To die I am no longer afraid somehow.
So fade away...




10. Black Tears

When I'm in this state of mindI'm wishing I was blind. Sometimes life ismore than pain, to meI feel the power of my grief. Death would besuch a relief. All the secrets that I hidewould die, with me.Depression is my only friend. Will thistorture never end? Let me carry on tothe dreamers sky.I keep crying in my dreams.Can you hear my endless screams?When I fade away I fade, away.Chorus:This Fluid on my cheek, it drains me I get weak. My heart is cold and bleak.Black blood. Black tears.Life is just a masquerade. In dept to myself, but I can't pay. Soon I'll call it all a day, away. I've never felt what you call guilt.I still believe "Do what thou wilt"My sorrow will destroy the world I've built.




11. 15:36

[1.]
Let me invite you to my nether-world
I'll show you sights you've never seen
You still my hunger
You're an easy prey
Your flesh is ripe
Your mind is weak
[2.]
And dark is the path where I'll be your guide
and there is no turning back
Don't you try to run
Because you're in my grip
and your soul now fades to black
[C.]
I am the one who will leave you behind
when I have used all of your mind
I am your incarnated fear
I have no soul
I am cold in my heart
I will always haunt you down
When you're dead you'll dream of me
[3.]
Let me invite you to the other side
Feel the presence of the dark
You scream and cry as I show you my world
Then I crawl into your mind
[4.]
I am the dream you have when you're all alone
I am everything you fear
I am the one who'll make you loose your mind
as the end draws near
[Repeat C.]
[5.]
And now... your time has come
Let me have your fading soul
Restless eyes watching you
I am crawling all around you
Face the darkness in my touch
[Repeat C.]




12. Hell Is Where the Heart Is

[1.]
In the strangest world of formlessness
I am reaching out to expand my mind
No more echoes and reflections
The future is now
I am the first in line
[2.]
Because I am alone
Here with my fantasies
Inside my cocoon
A self-constructed galaxy
[C.]
And hell is where the heart is
But I'll never understand
The fact that I am
And hell is where the heart is
I have lost the concept of life
Is there another to find
[4.]
Gotta ticket with
a microsynthetic design
For chemical dreams
To fill up the dead spot
in the bottom of my eyes
and welcome the big sleep
[5.]
Injected with silence
Fading in a sleepy confusion
A beautiful entrance
Into a higher dimension
[Repeat C.]
[6.]
I was about to explore
The Exit
The Door
Out of my labyrinth
A mind-detonation
The easy solution
Out of my labyrinth
[7.]
Between midnight and twilight
I leave my shell
To enter the dream-light
The final farewell
[Repeat 1.]
[Repeat 2.]
[Repeat C. (X2)]
[Repeat 7.]




13. Hellwritten

[C.]
I got hell, can't you see
I got hell, written all over me

[1.]
Riding with the living dead I'm riding high I'm riding free, yeah
The thoughts that fill up my head are wicked and obscene
So if you're riding with me, your riding damned, free from the grace of god
Demoneyes yeah deamonlife, see with my eyes and keep yours shut

[2.]
We all have beasts that dwell within, and I have set mine free
I've let loose my devil spree, to fill the emptiness in me
I've sold my soul to a carnal ghoul, the devil? I've shaked his hand
I sold my soul and then time takes its toll, forever I stay damned

[REPEAT C.]

[3.]
Burning as I feel the flames getting higher, will I become a victim of my own desires
Still I'm more then satisfied, with my life, yeah the life of the wild side
As you carry on your pathetic existence, I'll be my own god and master
And I'll keep on spitting on your beliefs, and I'll keep laughing at your chosen one

[REPEAT C. x3]

[4.]
Riding with the living dead I'm riding high I'm riding free, yeah
The thoughts that fill up my head are wicked and obscene
I've sold my soul to a carnal ghoul, the devil? I've shaked his hand
I sold my soul to rock'n'roll, forever I stay damned

[REPEAT C.]




14. Bleed You Dry

[1.]
I am the one that makes you weak
I am the one that makes you feel like a spineless creep
I am the one without no heart
I am the one that tears your fuckin' life apart

[2.]
And so you wonder where I came from
Look deep inside
And so you wonder why have I come
There ain't no reason why

[C.]
A parasite from within
Feeding from your own sins
Draining your sanity, 'til insanity arrives
I came to bleed you dry
I came to see you die
I came to bleed you dry

[3.]
And you're the one that keeps me strong
And you're the one that keeps me going on and on
Yeah you're the one that feeds me
And when you die, I will still be

[4.]
No chains or ropes can ever hold me back
I'm breaking you down, crack by crack
Yeah you're the one that feeds me
And when you die, I will still be

[REPEAT 2.]
[REPEAT C.]

[5.]
I came to bleed you dry
I came to see you die
I came to bleed you dry
I came to see you die
