Far from Light
Hadrian, oh lonely man Take a look across the fen Struggle in a land afar Where yellow suns are red Throw away your sword Cloaked in darkness Atop the hill Towers your esperance Why is life bitter still? Hadrian, the gods have lied Sons of eagle's gold defied Caesar strong thy banners fall When earth is sky Carry stones to barren wastelands White bleach the foams of Tyne Legions marching Hide your hopes Save your life and die From Shadow to the edge of night We'll stand Shadow, cloud and shade All shall fade, all shall fade While all shall fade in silver sand and sulphur fire Grief is forever Thy fortress tamed the dusk and wed the dawn Climb its spires and Be no more

When the night is falling When the wind is whispering in your ear Lock the doors, tuck your pillow tight For they will soon be here Picking flowers, Little Mary screamed and Never reached her home For in darkness entwined They prey on those who dwell alone Something's watching from the shadows Something's here to break your neck Try to run, they will get you They're already on your track They that walk the night will hunt you down As terror strikes this town A night like this when evil strives The price is your life Dagger claws and crimson eyes No one will hear your cries All slashed til left are few And they are coming out to get you They that walk the night will hunt you down As terror strikes this town A night like this when evil strives The price is your life And they will get you!

As one day snow came flaking As then the world stood still And time Mine eyes they saw a figure A maiden fair in hand An oublet of ice Come and close your eyes forever Lay down and choose to die In breathless sleep all grief shall falter As I take your life As one day was clashing As then the wind was wild A man lay dead The kiss of the goddess There are jewels on her lips So white, so pure Come and close your eyes forever Lay down and choose to die In breathless sleep all grief shall falter You will be mine Come and close your eyes forever Lay down and choose to die In breathless sleep all grief shall falter As I take your life

You leave dark and empty corners You said your heart has changed You are autumn, I am falling And things they change, I know And I am fine, my fingers feel But I'm also a liar, you know Watch the days all turn to grey When your heart has gone astray Brush my soul bare, take away All the pain Weary years pass, hear me say All my life has gone astray Tread me down into the ground Rend my love to pieces I saw you walking past You were smiling, I was frail How can I not care about myself? Yet care so much for you? And you fade, you fade I read the flamе Indulgence is yours and yours alone Watch thе days all turn to grey When your heart has gone astray Brush my soul bare, take away All the pain Weary years pass, hear me say All my life has gone astray Tread me down into the ground Rend my love to pieces Desperate eyes, helping hands Silent cries, suspending strands Paper Fire, wrong desire Struggling strong, too hard, too long Watch the days all turn to grey When your heart has gone astray Brush my soul bare, take away All the pain Weary years pass, hear me say All my life has gone astray Tread me down into the ground Rend my love to pieces

Disciples of the desert kneeling Golgatha's hills were dreaming The light, the world through sacrifice Baptized through your knives And as I saw my life leave me The cross barren, cold A penance against the world Do not weep for me but For all the things that never changed For all the sorrow, I am absolution I am the light Feathers fall Raise the hammer, set the nail Drive them deep The Hour of Dying will prevail Daughters weep Silver cascades on this night Ad maiorеm dei gloriam Ash is grey and dark is light Hunger strikеs the prophets Woe will greet their doors Lust will be their gospel Sanctify the whores Adonai Elohim Iehova Tetragrammaton The howling of the Marids The cries upon the wind The flames that do not burn The paradox within What is it that we want? What is it that we seek? The given light cuts sore and deep Oh father, maybe all of us have somehow lost their will Forgive us, for our eyes are blinded Feathers fall Raise the hammer, set the nail Drive them deep The Hour of Dying will prevail Daughters weep Silver cascades on this night Ad maiorem dei gloriam Ash is grey and dark is light

Below the thunders of the deep Far beneath in the abysmal sea His ancient, dreamless sleep And the faintest sunlight flee There hath he lain for ages And will lie Until the latter fire shall heat the deep On his shadowy sides, above him swell Millenial growth and height Sponges huge and far away, in to the light From many wondrous cells There hath he lain for ages And will lie Battering upon sea-worms in his sleep Until the latter fire shall heat the deep Riding on waves up high Once by man and angels to be seen In roaring thunder he shall rise And on the surface die Enormous polypi What have thine eyes seen? Winnow giant arms Through the slumbering green Riding on waves up high Once by man and angels to be seen In roaring thunder he shall rise And on the surface die

Slope on slope Drenched in grey Endless hills now fill my sight Cold wind in Cimmeria Land of darkness and the night Here, in the savage northland Never bow and never kneel Darkest invocation The secret of steel Hath light not given fortune? Hath twilight dimmed the sun? Hath right not been retaken? Hath face done me wrong? This throne I gained through courage By Crom, I will not sell! By promise of valleys filled with gold Or thread of halls of hell Wind and stone, i search my heart and find...

A tall white ship Up to the sky We saw it ride On its wings of gold Carrying upon its sails The hopes of man Fly away to shores in the West While all the doves cry out your name Earendil, gone are the days The mountains are old, the oceans lie cold Fly away to shores in the West While all the doves cry out your name Earendil, gone are the days Now leave behind those earthly gyves
