A Dark Burial

Dark horizon for my December soul Dramatic serenades to be heard Dark horizon for my December soul Dramatic serenades to be heard I am the lord of all the lost souls Doomed to walk the earth The light in my eyes no longer exists It dies on that night The tragedies in my life still exist In the deeper depths of this cold soul Into slumber, into sleep...we access the endless abyss Once a king, now crowned the fool...I am the king of fools Agony, suffer in the souls of a thousand men A blood dripping heart – for a moment Stand still...stands still...the torment Howls in the night – dark shades of the dark Horror dwells underneath the skin An endless masquerade No rest for this wicked soul Free from torture thoughts Leave this world behind Release this bitter soul Heaven, oh, so cold A darker place I’ll see Doomed to walk the earth But I forever dwell In the deepest of your mind Where no one else can dwell... Leave this world behind Release this bitter soul Heaven, oh, so cold A darker place I’ll be I am doomed to walk the earth But I forever dwell In the darkest of your mind Where no one else can dwell... Better left among the dead Cleansed from this dark earth Soon I again shall arise To a better world and life... Better left among the dead Cleansed from this dark earth Soon I again shall arise To a better world and life...

Feel this river’s rage Tearing up your heart Feel this river’s rage...this river’s rage You say this world must end I feel this world on my shoulders Gather flames and alight your pyre Burn your hands and feel the fire Vanish in shadows I am leaving no trace A wicked world on my shoulders to embrace...yeah! A wicked world on my shoulders to embrace In the blackest of night – a fear of sleep Close my eyes now – wide awake! Nightmares coming to haunt my soul! Repent and fall on your knees Dark eyes...horror inside Deepest dreams you’re still there In hell I’ll arrive with death by my side Crushing claws tight around my neck A relief – come to me now The morning I welcome – not dead in my sleep... Is this the moment of my death? Or just another day I will live through? Is this the moment of my death? Or just another day I will live through? You say this world must end I feel this world on my shoulders Gather flames and alight your pyre Burn your hands and feel the fire Vanish in shadows I am leaving no trace A wicked world on my shoulders to embrace...yeah! Digging for you...I am digging for you The beauty of your grave Deepest and deeper...deeper and deeper... Earth coffins for the sinners The hours of forever...time’s up for you... The hours of forever...time’s up for you... Feel your river’s rage Deep inside of you Feel your river’s rage Too close to you... Feel your river’s rage Deep inside of you Feel your river’s rage Too close to you...

Celebrate...I celebrate the days of wrath An age of new blood... A trail in the snow so pure and red As I haul her to the lake... Dark desires...kept deep in heart Enter the dark...beyond voices of mankind Creeping, crawling towards the light My face vanishes from your eyes... Close your eyes, welcome your god My strong hands holding you down Touch of death’s angels filling your soul Welcome the light of a new world Howl water howl...your tomb, calm and cold... Lay down...let me guide you Do as I say...let the black water embrace you... Standing at death’s door...fire in my hands Walk the path with serpents...wash out the demons The shadows of your soul...of your soul! The cry of despair...deep is your dirge Weak and torn – I took your soul Let you be mine, forever! Bring the nightmare – close the chapter A short breath, soon nothin’ at all The grim reaper – me – cloaked in dark... Your body sentenced to sleep, go! The fear...still hides in your eyes A roaring fire...soon put to rest Free now...or forever in pains? The roaring fire...no longer in your chest Bring the nightmare – close the chapter A short breath, soon nothin’ at all The grim reaper – me – cloaked in dark... Your body sentenced to sleep... Hands of horror, hands of death The ecstasy – the risk in one kiss The knife...forced by the devil’s touch The serpent lives inside my soul... I sank into earth at the lakeside... I almost walked away, prayed for my sins...

Curse the hours of the night Sleepless night No other demons in sight Apathy in a fading dream Curse the hours of the night Sleepless night No other demons in sight Apathy in a fading dream I am forlorn, I am left for dead A mourner’s kiss They ended weeping at my grave Blame the cross around your neck Cursed are now, this cold earth Let us return to the eve All in tears – the night bright as heaven Age of the heartless – this world shall burn! The hand of doom – awake – arise! Like creatures of the night The hand of doom – awake – arise! Like creatures of the night A thirst for the “opium rose” In the kingdom of the fallen The lost, the one with death in his eyes Forthcoming damnation A hunger to become extinct As I surrender to my eternal father To be buried in thy hallowed earth Bring justice to my soul Formed in flesh – all evil Mortal men – mightier than God? Guard the key to the gates of hell In the kingdom of the fallen The lost, death from the skies Forthcoming damnation Guard the key to the gates of hell In the kingdom of the fallen The lost, death from the skies Forthcoming damnation Glory, glory to the brave With solemn hearts we’ll part Not sympathy for the darkness Nor enigma night I will praise Observe the wooden coffin They weep and mourn for my soul White lilies – pales faces Oh, hark! A tearful romance Oh, he shall endure by coming in the flesh To a lustful life and to a cursed death

Read for me the words of the dead Fathers of the dark I stumble forth in misery Read me the words of the dead In darkness I sigh Arrival of the fallen A longing for the heavens A night of burden In darkness I sigh Arrival of the fallen A longing for the heavens A night of burden Remember the fallen See them hang at the gallows Remember the buried Died for their forefathers’ sins As I walk, the skies grew black As I stopped and never looked back For those once loyal...yet so false I sighed again and sealed my lips Let us celebrate the dead Let us celebrate this journey to the end Let me enter the garden of delights If I shall rise from the ashes Bloodstained and hurt The scars – kisses of Judas They have been with me – with me from birth Scream to me the words of the dead Forge the fathers of the dark If I stumble forth in misery I read for you...the words of the dead The words of the dead

Man and the animal are merely a passage and channel for food A tomb for other animals A haven for the dead Given life by the death of others A coffer full of corruption
