Vestiges of a Fallen Empire

Encrypted before reality was conceived And carved in seeds of cosmic dust By obscure Gods of rotten blood Regents of timeless realms of lust Knotted through ages of darkness Abyssic symbol of the primal serpent The bridge between astral planes Portal of suffering and evil servants Thou shalt not behold its magnificence Due its eyes are certain death Thou shalt not enter its lair Due its nostrils expel poisonous breath Thou shalt not conceive its existence in thoughts Due its words bring the cataclysm Thou shalt not read its forbidden passages The Cipher of the Basilisk Hidden below the chambers of time And appeased by unknown chants The monks maintain the lethargy With an insidious melody and dance Following the prophecies of the oracle The precepts left behind by their lords Decrepit servants of ghastly shadows Lurking the light as vampires of evil hordes Thou shalt not behold its magnificence Due its eyes are certain death Thou shalt not enter its lair Due its nostrils expel poisonous breath Thou shalt not conceive its existence in thoughts Due its words bring the cataclysm Thou shalt not read its forbidden passages The Cipher of the Basilisk The stars align at the thousandth moon Gathering the heralds of tragedy Announcing the death of the sun And summoning the wizards of agony The new era of the serpent rises Drinking the essence of the light Skies fall apart and oceans dry The Basilisk installs the endless night Thou shalt not behold its magnificence Due its eyes are certain death Thou shalt not enter its lair Due its nostrils expel poisonous breath Thou shalt not conceive its existence in thoughts Due its words bring the cataclysm Thou shalt not read its forbidden passages The Cipher of the Basilisk

Centuries have passed since I lost my mortal shape As a pestilent shadow I emerge from my grave I have dwelled dimensions where there is no light Where evil and chaos, the primal forces collide Black candles enlight my crypt Where my victims lie dead and ripped Souls consumed by the sacrifice My slaves for the infernal paradise I have becomе grief and agony The lord of sadness and blasphеmy I will never be set free I am rotting in melancholy I have embraced my tragic fate Endless nights burning in hate In realms far away from thy beloved light Below reality, beyond thy sight Black candles enlight my crypt Where my victims lie dead and ripped Souls consumed by the sacrifice My slaves for the infernal paradise I have become grief and agony The lord of sadness and blasphemy I will never be set free I am rotting in melancholy Legions are under my command Following the guide of the dark lord's hand Rising and marching over the nocturnal sky Armies lurking the eternal light The night when I died Witches gathered and recited spells Below a blistering moon A new lord has reborn in hell I have become eternal Older than time and death Memories from my mortal life Dissappear as a cold morning breath

Behind a dense ghostly mist Far beyond any known forest Surrounded by mournful winds An atmosphere thou abhorrest Amongst swamps of dark water And scarlet moors enshrined by death Thou shalt find the black gate Whose lost paths shalt take thy breath Where once great towers stood along golden walls Where ancient sigils ornamented vast emerald halls Where the wisdom of mankind was enlighted with fire Now are just vestiges of a fallen empire Spectres wander through the ruins As messengers from a long dead age Whispering sorrowful chants Hymns of suffering and rage Travellers must beware To not fall into the spells Of those rotten souls And to be dragged into their wells Where once great towers stood along golden walls Where ancient sigils ornamented vast emerald halls Where the wisdom of mankind was enlighted with fire Now are just vestiges of a fallen empire Citadel of knowledge Temple of thousand glories Thy shades hide secrets Verses of mystic stories After one hundred moons of siege By hordes of fire and black blood Shields and spears were crushed No mercy was bestowed by the Gods Signs from this battle echo in eternity As feeble screams from the graves An eerie shadow cursed the land Turning their heirs into slaves Where once great towers stood along golden walls Where ancient sigils ornamented vast emerald halls Where the wisdom of mankind was enlighted with fire Now are just vestiges of a fallen empire

Hidden through ages Below the horizon cloak As a deed from the old lunar gods Is erected a kingdom of malign yoke At petrified valleys of dead snow Where no mortal eyes have gazed upon Where the rivers of time flow His reign of cruelty is born By an ancient lineage of cursed blood And with red eyes filled of hate The Lycanthropic Monarch beholds How the fullmoon writes his fate His palace is chisellеd on shadows and pain His throne is erectеd over tormented souls His crown is twisted into two horns His legend is written on elder scrolls Black towers eclipse the sun On his domains darkness prevails Damned are those who oppose his will By fangs and hunger his lust is unveiled By an ancient lineage of cursed blood And with red eyes filled of hate The Lycanthropic Monarch beholds How the fullmoon writes his fate Bestowed as an offering A condemned womb harbors his seed An heir to prevail his reign And harvest his evil deeds

A procession advance amongst the shadows of the night Whispering forbidden words of sorcery at the tenous light Dead stars enlight the cursed path of heresy As an adversarial order of unholy clerisy The mystic circle is formed by the evil priest Invoking with the virgin's blood the almighty beast Fires of ancient wrath have accepted the offering Opening the portal at the chapel of inverted coffins An engulfing scent of dеath surrounds the sepulchral vault Abyssic winds of darkness occult thе dawn Witches consume the sacrilegious eucharist As a symbol of blasphemous mockery to Christ Demonic hordes march through the hidden gate Sealing with blood and death the mortals' fate The servants listen the dark lord calling At the chapel of inverted coffins As shadows of hermetic discipline Forged in dungeons below the Earth Precepts of chaos and mysticism Philosophy of death and rebirth Demonic hordes march through the hidden gate Sealing with blood and death the mortals' fate The servants listen the dark lord calling At the chapel of inverted coffins

A black dawn is rising from the tides of the horizon The elders behold the rays of this dying age Chronicles describe the fall of temples and empires Crusades of blood and merciless rage The peasants gathered and danced around the prey Tales of war, plague and death were sung by they Perhaps the sun no longer rises tomorrow Buried below the dark millenium of sorrow Moist and ruinеd walls waiting to crumble While the ills cry and gasp for onе last breath Behind the doors of the burned church Rats devour their rotten flesh The peasants gathered in a ghastly orgy of lust Around the fire as the priest is turn into dust Perhaps the sun no longer rises tomorrow Buried below the dark millenium of sorrow Crippled souls have accepted their doomed fate Cursing at heavens with blasphemy and hate Denying their christian faith Spitting on Christ's face A parade enshrined by shadows Marches upon a carpet of death Where lie the corpses of the black plague The final torment before your last breath Crippled souls have accepted their doomed fate Cursing at heavens with blasphemy and hate Denying their christian faith Spitting on Christ's face The peasants gathered and danced around the prey Tales of war, plague and death were sung by they Perhaps the sun no longer rises tomorrow Buried below the dark millennium of sorrow
