1. Symphony In Moonlight And Nightmares
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This night belongs to us
My dear princess of death
We have a destiny together
As we meet in hungry caress

A deadly kiss under moonlit sky
As I stare into thy dark and hollow eyes
You take me down where cold silence dwell
Unconscious darkness realms of demise

You are born at my grace to serve only me

Blood paint on the wall is the ancient dream I recall
Predictions in rainstorm as tears darkred cascaded
In cryptic depths of imprisoned rage
Where I succumbed to temptation
In the laughter of cruel gods
Demonic wrath and devastation

A monstrous enemy demands to be set free
Frigid evil games black art and blasphemy
prophecies in blood
A deadly kiss
unto darkened bliss

We have a gift of shining
By knowing the history
Behind obscure mysteries

The mysterious
Source of true art and experience


2. Eve Of Midnight
++++++++++++++++++
Join in for a dance with the dead
A ceremonial requiem for the gods
When the moon is drained by all its light
On burial ground we gather in the night

Burning candles, incantations
Witches sabbath with unholy craft
Screams and laughter pierce the art
Like a haunting chant through the atmosphere

The dance is held to the end
When the shades of darkness transcend
Beside the ancient lake beneath the spelling moon
Across the fields of hallowed tombs

Join us, walk among us
Mysticus Magus Manifesto Spectaculum Mortuus Exercilor

We are they who adore the vast midnight skies
Where stars they shines like serpent eyes
We'll free thy soul from its chain
Arrive with thunderstorms and rain
From the darkest abyss graveland unfolds
Oh hear the distant echoes call
The eve of midnight a host supreme
Open thy world unseen

Eve of midnight

He who holds the book of sights
Shall be the ruler of the night


3. Path Of Ice
++++++++++++++
Journey into your darkened secrets
Feel the burning flame inside
Admit the ecstacy of the extreme
Just close the eyes and enjoy the override
When we adrift through the sensual streams
The enchanted pains are so divine

There are thorns everywhere
But along the path of ice rose blooms above
Blood is the rose of mysterious unions
The symbol of potency
A taste of erotic sins of lust
The entrance of immortality

There are such sights to see
Adventures and pleasures to feel
The dormant seeds of suffering
The art of mortal flesh that bleed
Indulged in desire, the forbidden soul empire

Path of ice
The entrance to immortality

Cold winds pierce through me
As my darkstar unfolds
I ascend the throne of fantasies
Where the beautiful abyss recalls


4. Sources To Agonies
+++++++++++++++++++++
Through the mirror of the soul
I'm staring deep within
To see what dwell behind the wall
The beauty of pale skin

The aura that surrounds me
Is not of noble kind
The blackness of the heart
Is all that's left to find

A dark river runs silent through my life
Like a floating nemesis
A dark shadow of what that used to be
Drift's now in lifeless misery

Live only to witness what I've become
Midnight is my shallow home
Soon to enter the last deed of mine
I'm forced to follow the streaming bloodline

When the wine of life is shed
And dark cosmic space consume
I bring the memories back from the dead
Sources to agonies, a devouring monsoon


5. Solace Of The Shadows
++++++++++++++++++++++++
I require the solace of the shadows
So the night can be redeemed
As the winds of darkness whispers my name
A kiss of death I receive
Nocturnal enchanter to thy art I yield
Within the candlelight a rapture is sealed

I set the stones for invoking ceremonies
In the twilight zones arise abstract galaxies
The magic eye unveils the blackened skies
A new horizon begins to each one that dies

The desolation makes me feel
So dark, so cold, the silence
So dark, so cold, the emptiness
Solace of the shadows

Night surrounds and embraces me
Darkness holds the secrets of man's fears
It captures my heart as the purgatory sears
I cast now the spell as I cross through raging flames
Into darkness cursing names

I require the solace of the shadows
So the night can be redeemed

Nocturnal enchanter to thy art I yield
Within the candlelight a rapture is now revealed


6. The Black Hearts Nirvana
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Hallowed be the darkness that coronates my soul
Deep within its shelter I seek my highest goals
I shall release what is conquered
From which that I now posses
All lifeforce is abandoned
Into the arms of death

Beyond the great dark adventures
In streams from the vast mysteries
Limbonic spheres enclose me
My star is the death of memories

I dwell in a mournful symphony
As I prepare for the cosmic funeral
The body yearns for dormancy
My spirit awaits to be set free

The black vanity I'm romancing
Within the obscurity
I've found my rest where cold emotions reign
And evil dreams of desultory

Through lifetime I've reached for the candle
In search for the legends of time
Cause how many moments is'nt a century
When everything dies behind the eyes
Cause how many moments is'nt a century
When everything inside just dies


7. Phantasmagorial Dreams
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
It's an age of nightmares and dreams
While we are barely children of the age
Floating on waves of cold etherial streams
A tributary to the symphony of decay

On a place beside the neverending line of time
I hear deathtones flow, emerge with ancient time
Black antique chambers and ghastly mysteries
Imprisons our mind and soul through centuries

We have existed since the dawn of the world
And until the last star fall from heaven
We focus on the darkness that shall become
When the earth bleeds by the seven
Deadly sins beyond forgiveness

Beneath the lamb shall hide the serpent
We all follow a revelation plan
Into the eternal wasteland

When the earth is swallowed by vulcannic fire
That's when we rise
When all the seas are filled with hatred's desire
That's when we rise

In phantasmagorial dreams

In the headstones shadow crawling in my knees
Remembering the gallow then all vanished like a dream
A wide open grave, dark naked soul
The soul is now chained, as in evil I boil
