Darkness captivates my mind I can smell the thriving apprehension I hear voices crying for the cruelty behind But I can't stop what's already done Drifting away, it's such a distant past It's all turning black, black at last This darkened power has drained me of pain Left with anger and hatred I shall rot It tortured me until my soul burst Into a raging, accursed fiend Drifting away, it's such a distant past It's all turning black, black at last Trying to break loose from this state of mind What am I becoming? What have I become? No mercy for whom standing before me I'll exploit your screams of life (hunger) By shattering your dreams of eternal life I'm simply getting stronger Drifting away, it's such a distant past It's all turning black at last

Withered symbols of decay I beheld Their lifeless shapes omens of things to come Withered symbols of decay I beheld They were the past, they were the future The lament of the black sea, I heareth And tears of silver, I cried Thus the argentine streams, I heareth And tears of silver, I cried Frostvenom - chilled mind Searing thoughts - blinded by lust All statues in the gardens of decadence Forever bound by the vines of midwinter Embrace thy bastard elysium Embrace thy corrupted heart

A silent mist over screaming waters Darkens the sun and covers all life In this sphere I am trapped And shall forever be plagued Nine steps to a landscape of malice Two shadows that can't be perceived Four elements hidden in darkness One pain that I require to feel My soul has been shattered And my spirit has long past This realm of stars in black Shall crush me into dust And I must hear my own shriek I must watch it all As this damned emptiness Tears it all apart Voices whisper ancient terms That I could not speak by It is I, who cry in desolation It is I, who needs to die For I have attained the wisdom And understanding of my fathers The price I pay is (victory and) salvation Though their names shall be death As my shape shifts To the next continuation The eyes of my fathers Are upon me like before They see what I have done And lets me further know That I now must proclaim My renunciation of this presence Silhouettes of a broken world Whom I can never break free This is what made me ravenous It has pulled the life out of me

This track is instrumental.
All who lay their eyes upon me Shall forever jarrow I am invisible, though I can be seen For I'm the passing that pulls you down Dreadfully I am left to wander Upon the remains of my kin Walking alone as the blackest of shadows Ancient and lethal, constant and depraved Over misty mountains Enclosed in the mourning From the thousands of souls That I have put to rest This is my curse The eternal damnation I am the dark wanderer The crow of passage Illness is my undying color The blood in my veins is black as death Roaming this land of sinister fright I convey malice, the supremacy of night This is my curse, the eternal damnation I am the dark wanderer, the crow of passage

I am the hostile image Your violent misery I am the one who shall Set your soul ablaze In these flames I shall Force through this cosmic haze This third ruin (from the fire) Has just become a mere illusion I see the seasons rise and fall For the tower in the middle is rising tall With a black, surrounding wall Float towards the sky and see the holy light A madness surrounds you As you feel your wings melt Soiling the clean earth of your kind as you fall I am the seeker of vengeance I am the spiritual force of vivid visions Your final destination The ultimate damnation This is where your kind Have slumbered for decades In this kingdom of crowned vultures I reclaim the essence of evil I will forever despise your kind I am the umpire and you are mine

The weeping of my name The moanings of a bleeding widow Void between the sighs Asphyxiates me in pain The Ashen Shore Bereavement over death Speaks a truth A blend of mirth A blatant lie Across the wind My supremacy To your blur The Ashen Shore Bereavement over death Speaks a truth A blend of mirth Cruelty burns a flame Buries me in strength The beauty there's contained Flickers over my pain Death shores upon Scream of its power Shores are dark It kills the light
