This is the eve of the new era
A dark cold night of autumn breeze
The last leaves fall to the frosty ground
The pale moon gazes through the thick massing clouds
The witches are gathered, a hideous coven
In delirious tones, they are shouting
Foul mysterious words as they go
Through the gloom and into the fire
A loathsome shape of obscene horror,
Squats huge and monstrous upon the ebon throne
Denial of the god above
The stifling air reeks with filth and blasphemy
Faster and faster whirls the witches' lewd dance
Denial of the god above
Shriller and shriller they scream in tongues
And then a wan grey light flickers in the northern sky
Twelve o'clock is the time of night,
That the graves are gaping wide
They haste, to the orgies of the sabbat,
With the infernal sacraments
The rites of the pentagram, the dance of Acheron
The sweet and beautiful fantasies of evil
A loathsome shape of obscene horror,
Squats huge and monstrous upon the ebon throne
Denial of the god above
The stifling air reeks with filth and blasphemy
Faster and faster whirls the witches' lewd dance
Denial of the god above
Shriller and shriller they scream in tongues
And then a wan grey light flickers in the northern sky
The circle is forever closed, within the secrets lie
Together they leave this dimension side by side
Twelve o'clock is the time of night, that the graves are gaping wide
They haste, to the orgies of the sabbat, with the infernal sacraments
The rites of the pentagram, the dance of Acheron
The sweet and beautiful fantasies of evil
This is the eve of the new era
A dark cold night of autumn breeze
The last leaves fall to the frosty ground
The pale moon gazes through the thick massing clouds
The witches are gathered, a hideous coven
In delirious tones, they are shouting
Foul mysterious words as they go
Through the gloom and into the fire
Twelve o'clock is the time of night, that the graves are gaping wide
They haste, to the orgies of the sabbat, with the infernal sacraments
The rites of the pentagram, the dance of Acheron
The sweet and beautiful fantasies of evil

2. Finally I Kissed the Pale Horse
At the top of the mountain
I saw him cast a spell
invoking the daimons with his ancient bell.
He grabbes his rod and threw it into the sky,
and denied the existence of the father of lies.
The angels cried in endless mourn, through the
night and til the dawn.
I watched their wings grown old, as the ground
turned to solid gold.
I slept all day under the three, that holds the
infernal key. The key of all wisdom, the key to the
long-lost kingdom.
And as the dusk fell over the mighty mountains,
He revealed the secrets of the ancient gods.
Their names, their seals, their powers, their marks.
And opened the gate to the darkest of paths.
Together we crossed the ocean of time.
He led me through the gates, all marked with the same sign.
We flew over the blackest seas,
in my hand I hold the key.
And as we landed by the great portal,
I finally kissed the pale horse, to become immortal.
We flew over the blackest seas,
in my hand I hold the key.
And as we landed by the great portal,
I finally kissed the pale horse, to become immortal.
And as the moon laid its light over mighty mountains,
We invoked the arrival of the ancient gods.
Using their names, their seals, their powers, their marks.
To guide us through the darkest of paths.
Now a thousand years has past,
we are ready for the inferanl blast.
A huge beast will rise up out of the sea,
upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
At the top of the mountain I saw him cast a spell
invoking the daimons with his ancient bell.
He grabbes his rod and threw it into the sky,
and denied the existence of the father of lies.
The angels cried in endless mourn, through the
night and til the dawn.
I watched their wings grown old, as the ground
turned to solid gold.
If it's the truth that has been spoken, I'll stand in
front of the gates wide open,
I'll await your arrival and shadows will come to life once more.
We flew over the blackest seas,
in my hand I hold the key.
And as we landed by the great portal,
I finally kissed the pale horse, to become immortal.
We flew over the blackest seas,
in my hand I hold the key.
And as we landed by the great portal,
I finally kissed the pale horse, to become immortal.
Visions of that no mornings
light ever will come
I'm to old now
The dark is so near,
will I ever reach
the land beyond
This is where we go when we have to
die!
I've been old since the birth of time
Time buried me in earth
centuries ago, I tasted blood
Buried by time and dust
Many years has pasted since the funeral
Missing the blood of human throats
so many years, ages ago
I must await, feel my bodies
stench
Wanderings out of space
Wandering out of time
A world out of light, death at the end
Only silence can be heard, silence of peoples tears
No one knows my grave
Buried by time and dust
Hellfire (2005 LP)
6. From the Deeps
Ia! Ia!
The stars are right!
For aenos they have slumbered
Dead but dreaming
Waiting beneath the waves
Awaken!
Daemon-gods of primeval times
Coming round full circle
Stirring in the deep
Rise! Rise! Rise!
Boiling wasters part
Cyclopean cities emerge
From the deeps
And then...
Insanity and fear
Overwhelm the humans
Outnumbered and inferior
Kraken, Leviathan, Cthulhu
So many names given
To the fear from the deeps...
Awaken! Kraken
Awaken! Leviathan
Awaken! Cthulhu
Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise!
From the deeps...
Ia! Ia!

10. The Devil of the Deserts
Do you know me?
Do you awaken screaming my name?
Do the images of me linger
into your waking hours?
I am the eternal dream
The unreachable goal
that which you sstrive for
But never achieve
I am your desire
Your deepest wish
And greatest fear
I am your nightmare
I whisper to you
Like the buzzing of insects
Secrets of the desert
You tell me all your wishes
Your innermost dreams
And hope to see them
I see your nightmares
Drink them in
And refine them
I give you
Your nightmares back
And your screams never stop
Somewhere in the desert
Your screams echo
Like the buzzing of insects
Be now the djinn
While I roam in the world
In your skin
Do you know me?
Do you awaken screaming my name?
Do the images of me linger
into your waking hours?
I am desperation
The love lost
But always longed for
I am despair
I am the dark
When all light is gone
And you are alone
I am your destiny
I am life!
I give you
Your nightmares back
And your screams never stop
Somewhere in the desert
Your screams echo
Like the buzzing of insects
Be now the djinn
While I roam in the world
In your skin

2. Lucifer's Fate
[A line from this track is an altered version of a quote from H.P. Lovecraft's The
Call of Cthulhu: "That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons
even death may die."]
Black iron to flame
I stand in the rain
With voices that fight with the damned
Dreams we are traught
Of angels in heaven
While Satan must pay for his sin
Ruler of death
Kingdom of hell
Dark angel now rise from your grave
Cast from above
I give you my love
I am joining you master
Time will never wait...
To rise is Lucifer's fate
Black iron to flame
A madman insane
Withd emons that pull at your mind
Word of contempt
For angels in heaven
While Satan left cold in his grave
Priest bow and pray
In hell they will stay
Deceived by the master of lies
Slaves to the cross
I weep at your loss
You'll stay here forever
Time will never wait...
To rise is Lucifer's fate
Thou art the god of the devils
And shall not be treated with grace
I beseech thee to cast upon the morning light
Can thou speak what the day shall bring?
Stand upon my lake of fire
Can though speak my name?
Fire I am and a fire I shall remain
For all that is dead cannot eternal lie
And even stranger are the eons of fate
Where given light even death may die
You face of the damned
Withdraw from your church
Deliver your soul unto me
Angel of Death ascending to heaven
With Christ who is down on His knees
Priest in the flames
Like witches they have burned
The iron cross torn from their minds
Lucifer's wings deliver on high
Now to sit with the angels
