1. BLASFEMIA ETERNAL
(intro)
++++++++++++++++++++
There's a Wicked kind of Melancholic Beauty contained within All that is Evil.
Music and title reflect Our State of Mind.
2. TOTAL MISANTROPIA
++++++++++++++++++++
"At Certain Moments in Life a feeling of extreme Hate can take over Soul and Body,
Adrealine and Anger can be turned into Power.
Oh so Many would like to see us Fail, our Answer to them and humanity in general."
Hate!
Take the blood, take the blood
Of my enemies
Total hate
I want them to die
Total misanthropia
Who needs weak flesh or family
Total misanthropia
Say whatever you want
Meant for me to hear
Hate is the only thing I feel
Destruction follows everywhere
Total misanthropia
Hate!
I don't need this love
War!
Bloodshed
War!
Hate
War!
Bloodshed eternally
I don't understand (love)
I don't want your love
Only Darkness and Hate!
Total misantropia!
If I had only more time (to)
Kill! Slaughter! Destroy!
The beauty of the Ppain
Destruction of the human race
3. GARDEN OF DELIGHTS (EVA)
+++++++++++++++++++++
"Women are oppressed by all relegions of Light.
No Female Priests can be found in Christianity,
Moslem fundamentaliss demand Women's Hair to be covered.
Eva (=Women) as the Eternal Scapegoat,
We embrace Her for having bitten the Apple.
Who Need's god's Paradise?"
Open the Portals to Darkness
So that the Fire of Hell
will Prevail
Embrace the Wicked Beauty
of the Darkest instincts
Turn into a tender Godess
And the ultimate Queen of Pain
Follow me on my Left Hand Path
And discover my Infernal Reign
I will accompany you on
your Abyssic Journeys
You will find the Pleasure
.... Beyond the Pain
Be my Innocent Graceful Virgin
By my lusty Gorgeous Whore
Never question my Power
Do Not Betray Our Flame!
Deal with my Insanity
Eternal You will Reign
Oppressed by All Gods of Light
Adored by the Disciples of Night
Female Soul and Body
Finest Piece of Art
Cannot be God's Creation
Bite the Apple Once More!
4. QUEST FOR BLOOD (Le Vampire)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"Inspired by the Great French Poet BAUDELAIRE.
Very 19th Century like indeed.
Vampires Are Forever but Somehow seemed
to be more Alive and Real during the Golden Age of Poetry and Literature.
First (French) part is directly taken from the master's Work
"Le Vampire"."
Toi, Qui comme un Coup de Couteau
Dans mon Coeur Plaintif est Entrée
Toi, Qui Fort comme un Troupeau
De Démons, Vins, Folle et Parée
To make out of my Humiliated Spirit
Your bed and your Domain
Honourless Croock to Whom
I am Connected Like a Slave to his
Chain, Like a stubborn Player to the
Game, Like a Drink to the Battle,
Like a Maggot to the Corpse
Maudite! Maudite Soit-Tu!
I have prayed the Rapid Sword
To Conquer my Freedom
Hélas! The Poison and the Sword
Took me with Despise and Told Me:
"You Are Worthly,
YOU ARE NOT WORTHY!
To be Liberated of You Slavery!!!
If our Efforts would Free Thee
Your Kisses would Awake,
The Remains of Your Vampire Within,
YOUR VAMPIRE WITHIN!!!"
Maudite! Maudite!...
5. BLOOD OF CHRIST (Mohammed Wept)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"Seen through the Eyes of the Anti-Christ who continues the Battle against god/allah and
his prophets throughout Time.
Religion and other Fairytales are one thing However Fundamentalism is increasing everywhere. "Holy" Battles (still) are fought in this So called Modern Age. New Dangers to face created by the ignorant Masses. God's Children Slaughtering each other in his Name, what a joke! Splendid "Victory" of the Servants of light. Did Lucifer REALLY lose the battle? The track is Our Way to express Our disrespect
for Sheep....And Our Sympathy
for the Rebel Angel.... "
One Last Look to the Sky
Again my end is near
Declared "Criminal of War"
This is My final Hour (Execution,
The End)...but the Start of my Dream
THE START OF MY DREAM
Reborn I will Be, Forver I will Hunt!
As a Traveller throughout Time
Reborn I will be
Forever I will Hunt, Forever I will Be
As a Traveller throughout Time
The Spear that tortured Christ was
Mine!
Oh Eva! Hold me once More, Bite the
Apple,
Who needs this Paradise, WHONEEDS THIS PARADISE?!
I inspired Nero to put Rome into
Flames
A Lieutenant I was, When Napoleon
set the World on Fire!
Oh beautiful Sight, Mohammed being
Poisoned...
Bible or Koran: Pathetic Book of Lies!
(We alwas lost a Battle, Eternally we
won a War!!!)
The Blood of God on my Skin
The Blood of Allah on my Hands
PORCO DIO! PORCO DIO! PORCO
DIO! PORCO DIO!
Für immer! Voor altijd! AIoNIA!
BLASFEMIA ETERNAL!!!!
6. EPEBOS AIoNA
+++++++++++++++
"Inspired by Satanic Rituals. In Allegiance with Utter Darkness Forever."
O Infernal Majesty
Condemn Him to the Pit
Evermore to Suffer in
Perpetual Anguish.
Bring Thy Wrath Upon Him.
Send Forth thy Messengers
To Proclaim This Dead.
Call Forth thy legions that They may
Witness what We do in Thy name
The Pain, the Hate, the Beauty,
True Strength, the Force of Evil,
True Strenght, EPEBOS AIoNIA!!!
Send Forth thy Messengers
To Proclaim This Deed
The Falldown of Allah
of Christ, of Eva
O Lord of "Light"
Lucifer!
O Lord of "Light"
Satan!!!
Infernal Majesty
Infernal Majesty - Für Immer
Eternal, Eternal!
7. (Het Verdronken Land van) SAEFTINGE
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"Centuries ago when Belgium and Holland were not divided by borders SAEFTINGE was a
Thriving Place We shared.
Since Medieval times Our North Sea and it's Waters both Lost and Took Land which
changed the geographical Outlook of our Countries (As did Politics).
Although Forever Lost Saeftinge is still indicated on our Modern Maps
as "Drowned Land of Saeftinge"..."
Here One can Hear The Call of the Sea
While a Deadwhite Moonlight
is creating the Ultimate Unlight
Or at Night, or at Night...
O Sad and Beautiful Night
Full of Melancholy
When the Silent Dark Waters
Are inviting the Lonely Souls
of Mourning Lost Ones... Like Me
of Mourning Lost Ones... Like Me
Here Once I led a Life
My Home was build...Before the Cruel
Water Came
May be the Death Fish washed on the
Shore
With their Cold Eyes Have catched A
Glimp - A Glimp..
Of my Forever Lost Village
Do I Hear my Ancestors Call?
Oh Beautiful and Cruel Lost,
Forever Lost - Dark Medieval Times
Drowned Land of Saeftinge - Drowned
Land of Saeftinge
Here Once I could Hear the Bell toll,
Here once I
had a life, My home was build...
Here One can Hear the Call of the Sea
Oh y Drowned Land
MIJN VERDRONKEN LAND VAN
SAEFTINGE...
Saeftinge - Saeftinge - SAEFTINGE,
Forever lost, FOREVER LOST ...
8. SHADES OF ETERNAL BATTLEFIELDS (Our Empire Fell)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"An old Field Marshall (which would be declared Megalomaniac in Our age but A Hero in
Ancient/Medieval Times) is reliving His Glorious Past and Youth.
Both Are Gone, the Essence of Melancholy."
Captured in this Paradise of Light
I can only Feel Lost
No Grief, No pain
How to Maintain
This world is No Longer Mine
A Warlord I Was, Cities we took
A Warlord I Was, Cities we took
Melancholy fills My Heart
Why did I lose my Youth
Brilliant our Battles were
No Journey too Great
Parades in Conquered Streets
While our Banners were flying High
True Glory could be Found
Inspired by the Root Of All Evil
Memories of Battles
Like Gods of War we Were
Like Gods of War we Were
We sat at Satan's Left Hand
Peace Came...Oppressed instincts
Reign my Land,
This Land is no longer Mine,
Now Our Paradise is Lost...
9. VAE VICTIS
+++++++++++++
"A Tribute to the tribes of the Belgae as Julius Ceasar called the Inhabitants which lived
in Our Country over 2000 years ago.
Declared as the most Brave of Celtic Tribes in his Writings. "VAE VICTIS" Can be seen as
Dedication to all Mighty Empires/Civilizations which are Forever Buried by Time and Dust.
For Those Who are Longing For the Ancient Kingdom."
10. FALLEN ANGEL
++++++++++++++++
"Satan's Legions, None Will Ever See Them Fall...."
