Tiamat
Album • 2008
It's been a long time but we are here again It's been five long years of thunder, lightning and rain So cold, so hard without you But tonight... we're coming through! The temple of the crescent moon is calling you tonight The temple of the crescent moon is calling you tonight When the skies light your eyes with all my fire The temple of the crescent moon comes alive in the night Yeah, it's been a long time but we are back again For another five years of thunder, lightning and rain And now the hurly burly's done And the fight's been fought and won

Listen to the angel sing I can hear her crying I can see her burning wing In a burning church of shame A bloody Mary in flames Spoken infernal names Rise from the ashes and do it again Yeah, we can make it happen My Nemesis, my friend Why don't you stop to pretend It's the beginning not the bitter end, no Through the Genesis flood We were baptized in blood A military coup of the new Gods Rise from the ashes and do it again Yeah, we can make it happen This is the Equinox of the Gods Set the altar on fire See the embers go higher See the burning oils glowing Sacrificial blood's flowing We never bow unto thee We went to Gethsemane To kill your self-pitying Nazarene Now all the cherubs are deceased Upon their corpses we feast The only good priest is a dead priest! (Crucify her upsidedown Impale her with rusty nails Dress her up in a blood red gown And gory, beautifully painted veil Let her bleed to death before our eyes Oh oooh May she be punished and sacrificed Oh oooh, oh yeah!) The dirty nuns are in chains No monasteries remain The time has come for our Master to reign Again Thy kingdom is gone Satan's work is done An A-Bomb over Babylon

Years of great plenty Throughout the land of sin With only faith at stake And so much more to win Now, wouldn't Lord allow us a little fun? Until the hellhounds sleep again Now you're soaked with water That your wings just won't repel But on your little crooked streak You dry them up in Hell Until the Sunday bells are calling you Until the hellhounds sleep again You enter the night in your Devil-black suit Well, we all need a little taste of that forbidden fruit And in the night Satan is divine Until the hellhounds sleep again Your path leads to nowhere and nothing is your trade Your faith barely lasts until the church bells fade I sincerely wish you better luck tonight Until the hellhounds sleep again Though the colonnades of faith with you It's what I see, it's what I love, it's what I do And now the columns are falling on you But in the colonnades of faith, we're passing through

Will they come And alight the skies anew? The night is young And so are you Is it true what they say Behind these walls? Tonight We'll see for real Do these mornings ever come? Will we ever see these days again? And can we speed it up again And watch it really slow? Can we run it backwards To the place where it begins? Do these mornings ever come? Will they come? The flower rots And the laughter disappears Now, the time goes on But it's always on our side Don't leave me alone In these corridors of gloom Don't leave me alone Tonight Do these mornings ever come? Will we ever see these days again? And can we speed it up again And watch it really slow? Can we run it backwards? Maybe... Just one more time? Just to see what you did I wanna see what you did Are you afraid to show me what you did? And do these mornings ever come? Do these mornings ever come? Will they come?

Dead angels are our friends May the demons smile again And may our virtue be superior Judge and jury, who's to blame And in the end it's all the same Rusty ruins with gold exterior Like quivers hung from clouds of grey You're getting yourself in our way I turn the other cheek another day Lucienne Burn for me In a fire of a million degrees Break down what stands before us Genocides and Exodus Folklore of a bleeding Nazarene A paradise of parasites Moth holes in wings of white Hollow psalms of miracles unseen We are stillborn before the equinox of the Gods And we shall rise from the sound of whipping rods Yeah we shall rise from this sound of whipping rods (the cherubs are falling, the demons are calling)

A new cold breeze in the air Wish I could take you up there Where we would drown in the sun But summertime is gone A chilly wind through my spine And heavy clouds in decline Winter's work has begun And summertime is gone And I wanna see you once again And I wanna touch you once again Oh, this is what dreams are made of My, oh my These soothing times The summer wine Summertime is gone Now clouds are hanging low And paint the land in snow The equinox is through and done And summertime is gone I dream a little dream of summer days And spread my wings of dreams to leave this place With sunshine and dreams for two One for me and one for you I dream a little dream of summer days

One, two, three, four... Sons and daughters Troubled waters A stench of burned gasoline Silicon and Codeine Flooded highlands in misty haze Mudslides and suicides Earthquakes and gamma rays Devilish acts of God above Carried to heaven by a dirty white dove And in the corner there's a broken man His fingers are on the trigger now And as the smell of dying embers And rusty strings on his bow A sound explodes and fills the room And echoes beyond these walls of doom Until it vanishes up in the air With nothing more to come Yeah, we must aim for the stars and we are gonna get up high We must build another tower and make it through the fires We must sail the seven seas now the waters abound We shall cease the deceased until the angels come around With nothing more to come...

Oh dark horizon You speak the truth Oh temple Lord Cold blood is pumping through your veins You drown the sun Of horror lies Oh Master Lord Light up the fire of your reign In the name of thee We are the fallen We are the plague We are the dead spots of the sun Oh woe to you Oh Lord of flies You lead our path Aeons of our vengeance have begun Run... run... It's raining dead angels from the sky Cold and stiff, oh my Oh dark horizon Of the underground Your soul is ours The tools are clean and the altar's set on fire We have begun We don't look back The skies are fallen A one way ticket to your funeral pyre

The river's flowing The water's deep The water's dark Where angels weep The skies are falling It's time to leave But don't you ever say goodbye The whip's back lashing Planes are crashing The water's dark The water's deep The skies are falling It's time to leave But don't you ever say goodbye And then we crash into the sun With so much left undone We're leaving now Misantropolis A life's a gospel Some girls are soul Some baby's blues Mine's rock'n'roll But we're all falling It's time to leave But we will never say goodbye And on four horses Come special forces The water's dark The water's deep Cause we're all falling And it's time to leave But we will never ever say goodbye And if I would dare to tell the truth Nothing would stay the same Now love me or leave me But this has to come to an end Soon...

This track is instrumental.
You ask for forgiveness but your lips they are still lying You might be forgiven but the angels are still crying But you're alive so please try one more time And all the dirt you throw so deep down in that well Will be there waiting for you the day you enter Hell But you're alive so please try one more time You have walked these roads alone, you've spent your time with faith Without any answers found and now time is running late But you're alive so please try one more time You might think I'm not any better and you'd ask me what I would do But I sincerely love you still and these thing they are part of you But you're alive so please try one more time We have left the bridges burning for the sake of trying And as long as you are happy I don't care if our love is dying But you're alive so please try one more time

Drag me down and chain me This is not what it seems This ain't no cozy little dream This ain't no mysterious way, no no This is just another Sunday I die alone On Via Dolorosa I carry my burden alone On Via Dolorosa I'm dragged down by the stone On Via Dolorosa I carry my burden alone On Via Dolorosa This ain't no universal mastermind This ain't no projection of one of a kind This ain't no religious highway No, this is just another Sunday

Now that we're dead We've learned how to live Our failures taught us how to forgive And now that we rise From the ashes of me and you All our dreams shall come true Floating in circles Stars shall light our way To meadows and fields Green is the grass where we lay Down Forever Now that we're clean Our souls can be freed Our love is the only drug we need And now that we're one We don't need any God Divinity flows in our blood Floating in circles Stars shall light our way To meadows and fields Green is the grass where we lay Down Forever Fading: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love

I... I deliver myself to you Lucifer, my father, you're my light And my way out of the dark I wanna set the skies on fire And watch the angels as they fall into the sun Why have you forsaken me? Why have you betrayed me? Why did you abandon me? Why did you leave me? Father Can you forgive me for what I've done? I never meant to hurt you But I'm not your son Now the time has come for me And I must leave My wings are heavy And my journey has begun...
