Let the World drown
06:33
|

Let the world drown in its injustice
Let the world choke on the words of liars and fools
Only the true and wise, choose a path of their own
It is there where the masses gather, that ignorance prevails
Often it is better to reside in the shadows, to avoid the light
Often it is better to stay deaf to the voices and to accept
the silence that comes by night
In solitude, at one with nature, all can become so clear...
When losing the inner self, one easily joins the herd
Listen to the sounds behind all the clamour
They are silent but full of wisdom
Observe, reflect - and then leave it all behind
Only in wisdom one can rise above himself
and accept his destiny, as woven by the fates...

Dispensable Souls
05:11
|

It continues to amaze me, the number of dispensable souls
The fools gathering behind lies, preaching as if they were gods themselves
With their spirits lying in chains, spreading death
I cannot pity them, instead I despise
These prisoners of their holy words, too blind to realise
Possessed by an afterlife, wasting their presence here
Why don't they all practice what they preach
And leave this world to those who are willing to aim higher
Willing to be free...
War should be waged on all false shepherds
That are leading towards the greatest collective suicide on our soil
Our future is poisoned and dying
Still we drink this poison as a gift of life
How I would welcome the ancient heroes of the sagas
That dared to stand up against 'invincible' powers
Saviours of their people, examples to mankind
One day, our children will sing their songs
I hope that I will see this day so I can sing along...

Conquered by Sin
05:36
|

May the sun set your world ablaze and may the oceans drown it afterwards
May your earth infest itself with parasites and may it get devoured from within
May the fire spitting mountains spread their ashes
Poisoning the skies, leaving everything to suffocate
Hiding the sun, leaving shadows to reign.
Here is your Apocalypse, your final desire
Hear the virgin mother crying, seeing her bastard son dying
The demonic souls from below, awoken by her screams
Here is your God, your Satan, your Christ...
You lived on your knees, on your knees you meet your demise
How you must be delighted to finally meet your shepherd
You have the honour to die for our sins
This is the only thing we grant you
How we admire the beauty in this destruction
Your heaven burnt down, accompanied by infernal choirs
Heralding a new dawn, we march in
Claiming our throne, conquered by sin

Storm breaks loose
04:48
|
|||
A strange wind blows
Its smell took me back into the past
Giving me visions of times long gone by
There, I sensed the same ancient wind
It's creating unrest among animal and men
I see an ancient traveller, telling old forgotten tales
Storm comes ashore, the fire stirs up
The nation enthralled - The people united
The yought caught by rage - roaring they stand prepared
I watched a continent being caught up in a whirlwind of anger
I witnessed the new rise of an ancient force
Wotan is awake and resumes his power
The people rise - Storm breaks loose
No time for mercy
The people rise - Storm breaks loose
There is no going back
The storm is ceasing - its path left in ruins
The wanderer left for an indefinite time
Is this really the end?
Storm comes ashore, the fire stirs up
The nation enthralled - The people: dead

The Path
09:32
|
|||
These roads ahead, what direction to take?
Is the light at the end or at the beginning?
Is it a blessing or a curse?
So many different paths to follow, but all have the same destination
Don't all rivers flow to the oceans?
Does time stands above experience, numbers above intensity?
There is one thing we know: only death is real
Once I've been told that he who finds comfort in darkness and cold
Struggles to endure the warmth of the sun
That he who aimes to get old carries the burden of constant fear
What's the reason behind purpose
if only the path towards it can be chosen...

Wolf
06:44
|
|||
This soul roams this earth, since long time before the dawn of men
It possesses infinite wisdom, but is cursed to witness the eternal backwardness of mankind
Reborn, death after death, time after time
It does not know hope nor joy
The sole sentiment left is resentment towards men
What one could perceive as pure evil, can be redeeming for the other...
The essence of its existence, Its only purpose
is to erase all traces of human stupidity
To break this circle of life
To see the rebirth of a glorious kind
The Wolf that hunts the Sun - The Wolf that hunts the Moon
The Shadows behind the Light - The undefied God of Night
It feeds on its contempt towards the herd
Despises all that is weak
This pure spirit of the Beast will see this world freed of utter ignorance
The new dawn will be glorious
The wolves back in their chains
The torches besides the throne are lit
All life will serve under its eternal reign
All Hail!

The Abyss
06:36
|
|||
The countless times I came by
I listened but never spoke one word
I gazed a numerous times into your dark mysterious depths
Observing, but remaining silent
Oh obscure shadows, what are your voices whispering?
What are those petrifying screams telling me?
Oh magnificent Abyss, what are you hiding deep down?
Are those the echoes from those who came before me?
Are those the souls from those who desperately answered your call?
One day, your depths will rise above me
Your darkness will swallow and devour me
My soul will be torn apart by your chaos
Until that day, I will not bow to thee
When time has come, I will allow you to consume me
Only then, I will grant you my voice
I will fill your darkness with mine
I will scream along in your choir of torment
For now, I'll keep admiring you singing
These haunting anthems of suffering
