The Temples of Offal (1991 demo)


1. Immortal Sorcery

Summoning of morbid minds
The darkness will rise with you
Defying your creations
A prophet of eternity
Eternal fall as the angels sob
In human gore imbued
Feel the enchantment
Over each quivering form
Unveiling mortal sorcery
As your soul rots

Sorcery in your mind
Live immortal life
Incantation beyond the gate
Beyond the world I once knew

Dispelled from darkness, which they dwell
Chants of evil in the air
As I now stand before the ancient lords
Sending magic upon

Sorcery in your mind
Live immortal fate
Incantation beyond the gate
Beyond the world I knew


  
2. Sumerian Sands (The Silence)

Immolation of cries, anguished ones curse!
I need guidence to the sunless tomb beyond
Sigh of the ancient image appears
In the silent place we dwell
Seeking the ressurectionist to the ancients
Wise of new gods honor the evil

Mankind has unleashed
Dark winds godly images invoke
Lost in a dark void
Resting in this silent place

The sigh of the ancient image
Emerges from the sunless tomb
I lead the way through my mind
To reach light beyond

Remains of those hear my cry
A soul destroyed for all eternity
Lost in a dark void
Voices are heard but not seen



3. Disembodied

 Gods of night, together with you, I destroy
Suppressed with pain, vile and sick
Twisted flames, horrid cries
Screams of hate, condemning all my prey
Ancient curse, morbid priest
The alter I give praise

Sadistic spell, unleash my fate
Reclaim the dark world, I desecrate

Descending souls, recite the spell
Reclaim my throne, sacred ground
Concealed by chaos, the suffering begins
I pray in homage, the wrath complete
The body has decayed

Told him the secret name
Secret shapes within the ancient horde
Great gods hear me, I disembody

The words of my doom which they have spoken
May they melt like wax
Three watchers of the night, dissolve the evil

2. Night Fire Canonization

 Remember!
Remember the drift of the night''s fire?
Where the flames run around with desire
Blazes spread to the fore charring the foe
Granting the competence and burning all

The headmaster of magicians is
The serpent -king and the slayer
The possessor of the torches speaks
To the night with desire

The night''s fire dances to a song of fall and wonder
The sultry weapon that calls you here now

The majesty is the power
Which corrupts the offspring (the paltry)
That shall never transpire
And always be denied
That shall never transpire
And always be denied (be declined)

The sun is sable
The moon is weeping
The planets are failing
As the earth starts to shake
The flames look secure
Within all the chaos
The fire sounds safe
Like a voice from the sky

The keys to hereafter
The flaxen-crimson embers
The symbols and the signals of
Destruction and withering
A night''s fire is
The portrait of what was
Of what is
Of what is to come

So we shall singe them and
We shall burn them and
We will destroy them to
Remember the pith of the night''s fire

The night''s fire torches hatred to stone
As the sun turns cold
The stars fall fast and
The earth turns black



06. ...of the Dead Who Never Rest in Their Tombs Are the Attendance of Familiar Spirits Including: A.) Diversified Signs Inscribed/B.) Our Earth of Black/C.) Voor

 Our Earth of black blemishes with a curse
Conclaves of spirits evoke and call forth
One grand night follows by a lone cold night
As the seven grottos head to the bowels of
Earth

The dead shall know there is never peace to
make the first sign of Voor
Flouting through the gates of astral planes to
the second sign of Kish

Dwelling in the outlines of wraiths to the third
sign of Koth
The dead shall nosh upon passageways of ye
Elder Ones

Diversified signs inscribe a reminder for the
shade of spirits
It protects those who would evoke ye powers
by night

Serpentine lamias and ravage-clawed harpies
Liquefy and eat into the gifts of decay
Every dream of man and woman coils by
the worm
As the ghouls race to the world of the living


The dead shall know there is never peace to
make the first sign of Voor
Flouting through the gates of astral planes to
the second sign of Kish

Dwelling in the outlines of wraiths to the third
sign of Koth
The dead shall nosh upon passageways of ye
Elder Ones

Diversified signs inscribe a reminder for the
shade of spirits

8. In the Name of Auebothiabathabaithobeuee

In the name
I give the powers to the spell
In the name
True visions of time are forthcoming
In the name
I confer brawn to incantations
In the name
Gray vapors begin to clamber high

The great scimitar of Barzai
Alabaster statuette of Yebsu
The representation of Koth
Cobalt flames light the blaze of Laurel

In the day
Mars and Saturn make collision
In the day
Place the ewer upon the fire
In the day
All the secrets are deaf in silence
In the day
I am the Lord of every Spectre

In the light
Grant equal parts of rune and weapon
In the light
Place the green glass onto the seal
In the light
Four winds cry the words of control
In the light
Seven nights will unchain the soul

In the name
I give uproar to the Great Abyss
In the name
I give the powers to the spell
In the name
Of the unction inside the sigil
In the name
Vaporous smoke shall arise



9. Girra's Temple

This is for you
Temple in the earth
A beacon of fire
A shrine for Eridu

The moon''s bright trace
A pathway to your vault
Your spell is close
Its light holds a face

The Sun still sleeps
While the ancient ones return

Here stands the mighty chantry
Inlaid with black-blue lapis
You''re seized by the Ushum-Gal
Enclosed in Girra''s Temple
Sirrush is flying over
Storming over Neti''s gates
Ea awaits your arrival
Inside...

The seeds have been planted
A long, long time ago
Early, utopian visions
You can only fantasize
One abyss: one temple
One mind: one design
In course of the setting Sun
You can only realize

Bashmu!
Sirrush! Ea!
Narr Marratu!

Narr Marratu!
Ea! Kingu!
Lakhmu!
Lakhamu!
Lakhmu!
Lakhamu!

Here stands the mighty chantry
Inlaid with black-blue lapis
You''re seized by the Ushum-Gal
Enclosed in Girra''s Temple
Sirrush is flying over
Storming over Neti''s gates
Ea awaits your arrival
Inside...
