Maleficium Bleak visions I have cast upon your souls For a glimpse of your tomorrows all your final bells will toll Auspicium Divinations By fire your fate I have foretold By blood and dissection your misfortunes will unfold The deeds of yesterday Fire and death to you all I sentence you for eternity To rot as my enemies (In rapture you're falling) In rapture you are falling You’re downfalling (In rapture you're fading) Fade away in the mist you’re wading You are fading In rapture you are dying Desecrated on these lands The fading lands Oh you’re all dying by my hand Sortilegium Equilibrium In the balance between life and death I am governing the acts of gods until their final breath The sins of yesterday Lunacies crafted in blood I stood strong Firm to my loyalty No flows in the plan conceived (In rapture you're falling) In rapture you are falling You’re downfalling (In rapture you're fading) Fade away in the mist you’re wading You are fading In rapture you are dying Desecrated on these lands These snow-white lands Oh kneel down to my command In the lair of wolves you took the trail Where the gloom is dark and the moon is pale The choices taken The fate foretold You blindly followed the runes of old You forged the hollow trunk of oak The lair of tragic fates foretold The runes have spoken and condemned A red mist thickens on these lands The deeds of yesterday Fire and death to you all I sentence you for eternity To rot as my enemies In rapture you're falling (In rapture you're falling) In rapture you are falling You’re downfalling (In rapture you're fading) Fade away in the mist you’re wading You are fading In rapture you are dying Desecrated on these lands The fading lands Oh you’re all dying by my hand In the lair of wolves you took the trail Where the gloom is dark and the moon is pale The choices taken The fate foretold You blindly followed the runes of old

Hanging I see their corpses clinging Half hooded in disguise Their shapes I recognize They hang On the grey oak they swing Ponder So many miles I wandered I roamed without an aim I fought men without name To reach this hanging tree (Hang) By the throat they are tied to old wood Aftermath of perverted kinghood (Die) By moonlight two shadows that shine Arms and legs hugged by vines (Doom) Its branches are knotted round the sun Setting pale on the foggy courtyard (Slay) Silhouetted against crossing spears (They were) hanged by the Cavalier Hanging They stand against my sight Oh the eyes can now see clear and bright As my chest opens wide Hanging I see their corpses clinging Half hooded in disguise Their shapes I recognize They hang On the grey oak they swing Ponder So many miles I wandered I roamed without an aim I fought men without name To reach this hanging tree As I revealed their pale glass eyes Too late I realized As I unveiled the hood There they stood My love (and) my daughter Hanging They stand against my sight Oh the eyes can now see clear and bright And I just want to die They hang from the hanging tree on morrow Their necks have cracked and my heart turned black Hanging I see their corpses clinging Half hooded in disguise Their shapes I recognize They hang On the grey oak they swing Ponder So many miles I wandered I roamed without an aim I fought men without name To reach this hanging tree Half hooded in disguise Their shapes I recognize As they hang on the hanging tree

Flames ablaze in the cold winter haze The sky’s alight Anguish felt all through the night Behold now Behold the moon of silver The pain encircles and obscures the sight of this wondrous orb of white Cleanse with fire the filth The wickedness The grime Bleed forevermore Alike a wolf out of a fable To die tonight is not too soon The bride of night A silver moon Sing forevermore Alike a night bird in its swansong To leave this world her only boon The bride of night A silver moon A silver moon A grand design I never felt apart My faith’s my shrine On every prayer I put my heart “Wake up now from your sleep dominion Open your eyes you should have followed me into the Monastery” “Light the stake and purge!” Her ashes drift away Bleed forevermore Alike a wolf out of a fable To die tonight is not too soon The bride of night A silver moon Sing forevermore Alike a night bird in its swansong To leave this world her only boon The bride of night A silver moon A silver moon A silver moon Like a wolf in its boon through the night Night of nights Look to the moon Silver moon Cleanse the filth with fire Her ashes drift away Bleed forevermore Alike a wolf out of a fable To die tonight is not too soon The bride of night A silver moon Sing forevermore Alike a night bird in its swansong To leave this world her only boon The bride of night A silver moon A silver moon Silver moon

A chant is resounding afar Is calling your name aloud A call from the mountains A song sung by the folks through the centuries A ballad echoes through ages bringing your name out immortally War hymns and poetries preserve your token of love for eternity Still don't step in the abyss below The judgement above It comes crushing nigh On this day you will die Decide She's on your side You won't be there to embrace the glory And golden words glimmering The world camе to an end in the forest of portеnt whisperings He dyed her eyes in his fictional sky since he was a child “I don't want to die without thee on my side” A spell In the chasm he fell Far away Forefathers who await me ashore Flag of dishonour held high Torn away in the potent mercy of true apathy Far away Mother ward off all my bane as the memory of Eleanor dies Torn away Shine and guide me through this blazing storm Far away That night the voice of the knife sang sudden his mortal melody The end of Eleanor carved your name in wood of finest ebony Down You go in the abyss below A self-sentence invoked The quill wrote the last testament of your life Unloved Yet undying Far away The wind will carry away The memories of those who died Far away A herdchant for the coming centuries Far away Forefathers who await me ashore Flag of dishonour held high Torn away in the potent mercy of true apathy Far away Mother ward off all my bane as the memory of Eleanor dies Torn away Shine and guide me through this blazing storm Far away Far away

From the Northern lands From the districts of famine and snow Hearsays have come Uprisings will soon begin to dethrone the king Cutthroat and cruel he came without mercy to rule His past remains untold On the brink of upheaval A red mist arose from below Bringer of throe Compassion will not be seen where the swords will gleam His awful ascension to power is now at rope’s end (now at rope's end) His death bequeathed forevermore One day the devil seeped into the room Said: “Let’s make a deal” His name the parchment signed a silverseal Betrayed The Cursed Cavalier Bright Seize the light Bound delight The stars aligned We have desire inside Dark immortal nights One day the devil seeped into the room Said: “Let’s make a deal” His name the parchment signed a silverseal You’re cursed One day the devil seeped into the room Said: “Let’s make a deal” His name the parchment signed a silverseal Betrayed The Cursed Cavalier This day will come It cannot be undone The tyrant’s cry Our victory is shining The day has come The slayer-king has fallen He’s named the Cursed Cavalier

I stand unconscious like an effigy in snow Heading to the north Swiftly blazing forth through this dire storm Pledge allegiance to the northern winds Carrying deep within spirals of despair To the north I am tracing my winter wake Enough with the torturing To the north I leave with a hasty adieux Far off from the beast within Behold this blizzard Sons of firmament beware Blowing from the north Slowly passing through Bleak spires of ice Swear allegiance to the fallen ones A massacre is done Bloodbath and fire Blood Fire Death Blood On the Moon-rite spill their Blood Fire Death Blood Towards the northern throne Dull are the calls of glimpses of sanity I am like blind in the midst of foggy piers Luminous sky Star-studded vault I cannot see Oh earth and sea What’s come of me? Repentantly I shall declare: “O’ Sun O’ Moon please absolve me from what I’ve done Under the mark of the unlighted The wicked one The runes cast death upon me All whom I loved now’s gone” Dull are the calls They’re drifting away Dull are the fires Blood Fire Death Blood On the Moon-rite spill their Blood Fire Death Blood Towards the northern throne Dull are the calls of glimpses of sanity I am like blind in the midst of foggy piers Luminous sky Star-studded vault I cannot see Freezed are the winds that howl curses at my ears Oh carry me in the middle of the tempest Oh eldest gods guide and dominate my hate To the north I am tracing my winter wake Enough with the torturing To the north I leave with a hasty adieux Far off from the beast within And the Earth will not care Freezed are the winds that howl curses at my ears Oh carry me in the middle of the tempest Oh eldest gods guide and dominate my hate Oh earth and sea What’s come of me? Repentantly I shall declare: “O’ Sun O’ Moon please absolve me from what I’ve done Under the mark of the unlighted The wicked one The runes cast death upon me All whom I loved now’s gone” To the north

Why can’t the whitest snow Hide, cover, conceal bleak memories? Why can’t the winds of north blow away this chilling pain? I pray upon the brightest stars To give me force to run afar From the source of this secret restless wrath The dawn will soon arise The morning rays of light will bring advice Choose my fate Please guide my own hate Blood for all the tears I shed since her demise Blood for all the fears that wake me in the dead of night Blood for all the tears The weeping that I hide Written in the red mist Fore you I shall bide With hair as white as snow A hermit walking on the path of throe A reader of the runes A master in the arts of night Beyond the way lies a thriving star A silhouette I see so far A host that walks inside this fog swinging untouched The dawn will now arise And all the ones at fault will soon apprise Seal their fate Anguish will abate Blood for all the tears I shed since her demise Blood for all the fears that wake me in the dead of night Blood for all the tears The weeping that I hide Written in the red mist Fore you I shall bide Why can’t the whitest snow Hide, cover, conceal bleak memories? Why can’t the winds of north blow away this chilling pain? The dawn will soon arise The morning rays of light will bring advice Choose my fate Please guide my own hate Blood for all the tears I shed since her demise Blood for all the fears that wake me in the dead of night Blood for all the tears The weeping that I hide Written in the red mist Hear my clear advice Blood for all the tears I shed since her demise Blood for all the fears that wake me in the dead of night Blood for all the tears The weeping that I hide Written in the red mist Hear my grave advice As above and so below A hermit on the path of throe A reader of the runes A master of the black arts Blood for all the tears I shed since her demise Written in the red mist Feel my last advice

At the stroke of witching hour Just a frame before the dawn They'll be gathered in covens unknown In the circle of the Runes On the cusp of Algiz stone Eight figures aligned on the lawn A strange shrill melody comes from the highest peaks Canticle for the damned A brew of magic herbs boils in the copper pot They have all been condemned Divinations I am the dark eclipse Premonitions Horns of the apocalypse Incantations I am the anger seed And damnation For thee and all of thy breed On this daybreak of December When the red mist lingers on Retribution will be staged at dawn The alignment of the stones Where Ansuz, Naudhiz, Eihwaz cross You will all bear unspeakable loss A doomed eerie maledict is hailing from the pinnacles Anthem of the sentenced A concoction made of hemlock and a leaf of white hellebore They'll be slaughtered as lambs Divinations I am the dark eclipse Premonitions Horns of the apocalypse Incantations I am the anger seed And damnation For thee and all of thy breed Oh The night my world all crumbled Beyond the spheres of time and space I fantasized a different tale Turned into solitary fate Incantations Please clear this dreadful dream and fear Good and evil Make them go and disappear Divinations I am the dark eclipse Premonitions Horns of the apocalypse Incantations I am the anger seed And damnation For thee and all of thy breed When all shine was shattered Constellations soared away The night they took her far from me My soul has cracked with no relieve Incantations Please clear this dreadful dream and fear Good and evil Make them go and disappear

Mystic night A line of purple lanterns Tracing her steps to a new glance With no shame Hollow and no dreams left She fancies her romance For what her life has gifted For what she has received back Come along Come along Cry your funeral song And testify your wilt as you depart Come along and when your ashes will disperse They'll bring a never-ending curse When you tried and searched for an answer And left with dust on your chest When it does not matter anyone This is the end of all The end of everything As the silvery steel reflects the moonlight "Eleanor maid of stars" As the blood tinges the white robe "My bane engraved your wretched heart" Come along Come along Cry your funeral song And testify your wilt as you depart Come along and when your ashes will disperse They'll bring a never-ending curse Your phantasmal appear They're all bound to revere Was destined to be severed by the seer Come along Disenchanted work of art As the blade pierces through your heart On the brink of frost bite A dream in red A reverie in autumn When all of the leaves have fled Come along Come along Cry your funeral song And testify your wilt as you depart Come along and when your ashes will disperse They'll bring a never-ending curse Your phantasmal appear They're all bound to revere Was destined to be severed by the seer Come along Disenchanted work of art As the blade pierces through your heart Pierces through your heart

A soil and worms is all I see above from deep down under Smell of damp and rotten wood I am still breathing To live or not to live To breathe or not to breathe Should the bell ring for my unearthing? Repent in ash and dust Unleash all my distrust In the grasp of the last air gust I breathe I have a chest full of well-rehearsed speeches I never gave I have a handful of dialogues I never had with all of you I have a spoonful of promises Oaths I never made Thus never broken A book of poems that will never see the light of day Crawling slowly deep under the snow Death is now watching As I try to break the riddle To settle my choice Dictated penalty This tragic destiny I am scratching the wood, do I want to die? The frenzy into those eyes Reminds a past demise The day I promised to excise I have a chest full of well-rehearsed speeches I never gave I have a handful of dialogues I never had with all of you I have a spoonful of promises Oaths I never made Thus never broken A book of poems that will never see the light of day "All considered I will now depart In the arms of this lightless dusk I bid you farewell I repent our days of old though As they have doomed the rest of my life" I have a chest full of well-rehearsed speeches I never gave I have a handful of dialogues I never had with all of you I have a spoonful of promises Oaths I never made Thus never broken A book of poems that will never see the light of day Never see the light of day Ah
