1. Awoke by the Bloodstone Gate
pale in horror, veiled in coal
ruptured like veins in the deep of my soul
scraping through layers of decaying doves
illuminated only by the moonlight...
flesh embodied, by one golden force
upon this dark journey, seeking the source
crippled by silence in a dissident state...
I awoke by the bloodstone gate
voices I heard in the fortress of thorns
like wailings of ghosts, a scathing of scorns
withering into the night I shall wait...
I awoke by the bloodstone gate....
2. Assault Chariot of Scythes
3. Gatherings in the Dark
from beyond the pale lunar light's celestial glow
a call was sounded echoing over vast landscapes
piercing like a storm of crystal shards
upon those who lay waste in the desert
beneath its feet the ancient catacombs sleep
and corpses awake to its majestic howl
in secluded depths of an obscure abyss
one silent cheifdom gathers in the darkness
a candle lit, red fire arises in a blast offering
faint whisps of smoke ascend as if dancing into eternity
sombre faces stark against the cold grey stone
turning towards the flame when its searing heat prevails...
such power cannot be contained!
like plagues of soothing pestilence these flames shall be enraged
soaring from decayed tombs to chasms brandishing light
envisioned night arisen from dreams to journeys
as they wait in the desert, dying, decaying lungs screaming
dust piles over skeletons, venemous hosts parade
bleeding under a merciless moon, their dawn shall never wake
a candle lit, red fire arises in a blast offering
faint whisps of smoke ascend as if dancing into eternity
sombre faces stark against the cold grey stone
turning towards the flame when its searing heat prevails...
ah! yet such power cannot be contained!
4. Fifth Plague
5. Tempestuous Half Shadows
frost storms from the cliffs,
it wails through the desolate woods
the night and the dark arises in my heart,
as a black eclipse torments the moon.
the winds cut like scythes,
harvesting the village
decay flies from the open tombs,
on the night of tempestuous half shadows.
as this horror awakens,
no souls are at rest
through the streets they haunt,
leaving a trail of grieving mortals
spattered in blood
knives unsheathed,
veins cowering beneath the blade
spilling forth their venom
on this night of demonic hosts feasting
and the dawn never wakes
the stars never take their rest
winged creatures construct their kingdom
from their victim's corpses
drinking from the skulls of the innocent
laughing at their cries of agony
ignoring the stench of their own disease
a pitiful bounty gathered from this massacre
silence falls upon the black cliffs
an eerie myst cloaks the desolate woods
the night and the dark arises in my heart,
as a black eclipse torments the moon.
6. Scratching Over the Face of Black Angel
7. Night Meditation Part One
8. Forgotten Wanderers on the Sea of Souls
9. Hidden Lakes
