Fear not the dark I do not But dread the blinding light Spheres ablaze Flaming hot Deceitful burning bright Speak not of fire I do not But hail the howling wind Let roam the night Under moonlight pale The forgotten beast within Follow Hollow Have you closed your eyes And entered night To hear the whispering dark Have you seen the truth Out of sight Concealed by the lying spark Have you trodden the path Of a lucid dream On bones above the ground Where truthful words Are spoken clear Without the slightest sound Follow Hollow Light Let there be none Endless might Let it be done In the shadows of the brightest night Always shunned Out of sight We are one In the shadows of the brightest night Cold This world is cold Did I call your name? Did I ask for your light? Nothing We are nothing But a pale spark of vanity in the dark So dark Did you really think you were allowed to enter? Leave Please Leave Follow these words then forget them Hollow Follow Death Oh Death Burnt by the fire I am not But embraced by the fallen might Ancient storms do caress me Blistering force at night Cast into oblivion I am not Relentless at dawn I thrive Soon to whisper the cold arise A faithful darkened hymn Follow Hollow

The ruins you stand upon Used to be my realm The ashes in the air Once brethren at helm The great and the proud The strong and the loud Now silenced, dead and still Desolate plains Wasteland vast Now dark Now cold Dominion Oblivion Old The dust you wash away A castle made to sand A sanctum now betrayed As winter is at hand Although I can't hear your voice A hymn I can recall That was sung in another time Long before the fall Desolate plains Wasteland vast Now dark Now cold Dominion Oblivion Old I can see the devil I can see the beast His breath, his wrath and scornful fiery eyes I can see the devil I can see the beast If I look into the mirrors of a thousand lakes All I will see is that the devil is me Hate, hate Feed the burning hatred Hate, hate As wildfire I will reign Burn, burn As long there is hatred Burn, burn Let the fire rain Of vanity turned to stone A statue by the shore But self-hate keeps my heart Pounding in this war Anguish eats my soul As volatile faith has flown Now wouldn't it be better To watch the sea as stone

His eyes Circling above us To watch as souls are collected They gaze Through the mist of the dawn And call the fallen brave selected One eye And the two with four in the sky Immortals that witness the war The flame And its last flickering light Battle echoes over the moor By the sound of the blade We all die alone And under the ravens' black wings Our fates are cast in stone Our names in stone Our flesh in fire Now bow to the throne In halls up high Onward The night is still young And the hunter must search for its prey Onward 'Til the battle is won And we will be on our way Like leaves that cover the ground in rust So red the blood that we spill The glory of battle sung by the wind Sound over field and hill With life as an offering to relentless gods We break mortality's chains And the pale comfort of dawn Greets the dead on these plains Our names in stone Our flesh in fire Now bow to the throne In halls up high Onward The night is still young And the hunter must search for its prey Onward 'Til the battle is won And we will be on our way Cast in stone By the swing of the blade We march to our glory through war Forever in battle we slay To rise the very next dawn Cast in stone By the swing of the blade We march to our glory through war Forever in battle we slay To rise the very next dawn Cast in stone

North Draped in howling winds North Endless cold North The silver coven sings North Endless old Carry my dreams in your storm But bury beneath my bones Let the winter's bleak cold shroud Keep me warm, under speaking stones And the bells will ring Let the northern sky sing For my spirit in the wind Hear – The endless forests call Behold – The midnight fire Speak – A furious thunder roars Remain – cold, vast, proud North Let me follow the ancients' ride North Father and son side by side North Let the snow fall on these stones North And carry my soul home Let them see what I cannot see Tomorrow's eyes under northern lights As my sight grows dim let me be By light unbound Through endless nights North Skies of trembling might North Darkness bright North Pale light restless night North Endless white

I saw my demise I held the key to Hell in my hand The dream was real for a short moment in time The chill of that night never wore off I almost crossed the gate when I heard the bells chime Have you been where I am Where a once vivid world has become silent Have you answered the call from the other side So peaceful yet violent In the twilight grey I don't grieve I celebrate When the days were bright, I was there I don't grieve But now it's late past twilight grey and I'm still here Maybe this is not me But a shadow of the past An impostor trying to be Painfully knowing this won't last Maybe one cannot return When the flames have begun to char the bones Maybe I'm bound to burn The flames might be gone but I still feel the glow It's not my time just yet But I would lie if I'd say I'm not eager The dreams of death are still here And my wish to wake is meager Out-worn heart, in a time out-worn Come clear of the nets of wrong and right Laugh heart again in the gray twilight Sigh, heart, again in the dew of the morn And God stands winding His lonely horn And time and the world are ever in flight And love is less kind than the gray twilight And hope is less dear than the dew of the morn The call From beyond Is getting stronger Been waiting far too long The force From below Can't wait no longer And so, my time is gone
