In the Absence of Light

Infinite darkness engulfs a shadow over time. They line up one by one delivering their salted woes. The fading memory of light drowns beneath the tide. though the earth turn cold and the oceans lay frozen the betrayer of hope sleeps soundly in vast cathedrals of the sky mine is the kingdom where sun doth not shine. For today marks the day of a new age. The age of the unlight. Let the stars of the twilight mirror the eyes of the beast. Let them look for light but have none but the great black flame therein. May forever the day be shrouded in death and sadness. Remember the day Dreaming of dreams You know it to be true and nothing is done between us Not til the end of time

Oh bring me the night divine Among the coldness dwell I Under the blood red moon sky Bury my flesh blood and bone Now to the blind world below descending Bear now my unearthly cries Into the stars wandering beyond Shadowing my existence The sickly smells of human souls One by one did the blood drops O darkness triple form Eternally dedicated to the darkest light Let me the offering Behold the sorrow Extinction Mesmerizing misery Silent death Piercing your heart with dread Feel my stormy vengeance The unholy power of the cold black flame Burning down the churches of Christianity There is no escape Born to the darkness Void of human weakness The gates of hell have opened Our empire everlasting Sworn to the dark forces The white mountains of madness The bitter valley of sadness Bring forth the flood Answer the cal

Pity my woe when the hours breathe faint and low and hell has risen its infernal flow The windy sky weeps above the sleeping sea No rays from the heavens shine down All is black beyond belief In the heart of wintry cold Wearing robes of sorrow/ the most ever known The mysteries that bind the flesh that I hold Reverence The veil is now drawn I still remember though ages ago it seemed Twin serpents speak not to me Eyes staring through the darkness of the abyss below trapped in immortal hell In this terrible hour The darkness beckons that which looms before me Oh thunderous night Cowering against the winds No tears will you shed Just kiss the pale lips of death and feel the fire burn within the icy shores

As the daylight withers and night falls over the earth Weltering in sadness Over a bitter loss You are the tragedy You are the land of no return I will watch the sky for a sign Will you wet the earth when you weep from above Rain pours down like wisdom Awaekening the sleeping We have waited an eternity for the return When they shall rule again My existence Infernal divide A monumentum of the past Descending

Another day passes by and I am running out of excuses Running out of words to describe... And as my heart becomes dust a final exit becomes clear I stand beyond the sun with the comfort of emptiness inside Because I could never swallow your false ideals And I will never follow your god at the heels Dark waters running deep as my hatred Only the moon will witness my revenge And the blood stained snow reeks of your invention But in the loneliness of winter I am abomination Oh these words flow like the blood of mankind Cold dreamless sleep is beckoning and in death comes the great silence

What hells await me Riding the violent winds of time Chasing visions along the way Am I forgotten Well my death won't be in vain My existence is shattered and the lights go dim The end of days One thousand worlds I would cast away to escape When the curtains fall down upon the darkened plains What hells await me This moment stands eternally Staring down my own demise Fear and awe consume me as I discover my own mortality I am taken to the place where the angels do not dwell To the kingdom of dis We will meet again at the gates of eternal slumber And with you in my dreams I am dying to sleep eternal My body lies cold but my soul forever burns

Enslaved to the dim light Betrayed by a god less exonerating Infernal inquisition Behold the might The path we tread Towards the shores of ice so cold and unforgiving Oh angel of death Covered inn sin Bound to the dim skies from which it all began From the heavens descend And like an echo in our legends do illuminate us to pour craft divine Arise! I call upon the gods immortal Mold us one with your darkness In the shelter of the night here exists endless beauty abound

With iron and ice running through my veins I curse upon the day you became Consequences... You run from your fate but your guilt enslaves you Weaving destiny and fate No longer will we wait Malediction It will be done If naught within this night of splendor Be this my destiny They came to plant the seed of hate within me Each day grows stronger Blacking out the rays of the sun Blind you with hatred In emptiness I am free Look towards the sky You will suffer my will A pitiful shattered wretch are you that envies those of the dead Your rest eternal Taken to the place where birds they do not sing The wind blows the truth and with the rain Comes the sent of change
