Midwinter Gates (prologue)

[ Instrumental ]

Without God

Human birds watch the sky
Where dark formations sail
Infecting the area of God
Jhva elohim meth

I am God creator of life
I am God enchanter of death
Death - that now marks you
Life - that slowly pass away

Screams of fear, dismembering the wind
Helpless souls drowning in pain
But storms of dawn...
A dawn without God

My spirit filled with hate sets free
The force of the golden dawn
Without God
Entomb your fear

The spirit is free
Jhva elohim meth
Satan laughs
Jhva elohim meth

I raise my fist
To the sky
Swear the ancient oath of black
The lambs shall bleed
Eternally bleed
God is dead and shall forever be

Palace Of Frost

Garden, still and cold
Leaves once green turned to gold
Wrapped in fields, eternal sky
I bid farewell, I die...

Birds of the night, sing my songs
Ocean of tears, leads so long
Solitude of my spirit, I am free
Now I am dead forever

Storms of sadness cleanse my wings
I dwell in grief after I die
The landscapes so below
I harken up, the Sunset choir
Sings from the palace of frost
The place where I shall dwell now
The palace for the lost

The Northern Silence

Captured within a shroud of autumn
All is silent as I depart the earth
Only the sound of a storm so far
Drawing nearer to catch my soul

My life is ended, another has begun
Descent forever to serve the dark
Aurora borelia shining bright
Horned master I am thy spawn
Flutes of the past play tunes of sadness
Horned shape granted me wings
To fly towards the northern sky
To reach silence and peace
Garden of ice, trees of sorrow
Behind the gates is my tomorrow
Garden of ice, trees of sorrow
My spirit is free to worlds beyond

Crimson Tears (epilogue)

[ Instrumental ]

Gateways Of Bereavement

I stand as I cry
Mourning in the silent rain
Death will light my burden
Endless is my sorrow
Gateways so dark
All these years of dying
Gone are dreams of velvet voices
I am you, we were one
Vast are fields I walk
Where sorrow never dies
The sky unites with the blackened rain
Summon with my tears
Now descend on winterwings
My withering soul..
Let me die,
Gateways of Bereavement
A temple of guilt
Falling deep
Embraced in grief
My withering soul
Let me die
Farewell life and all I died for
Now my time is over on Earth
Another journey ha begun
Alone I died, not praying for mercy
Nor praying for salvation
A lonely journey in a darkened dream
Time has come to spread my wings
Slow....
descending from the silent sky
Death comes to take me away
And from the gateways you hear my cry...
I love you ...

Velvet Thorns (Of Drynwhyl)

Ten strings of darkness on a violin sad
I watch the mountains where the frost begins
The northern storm is guiding me
To the forest

Silently the nightbirds fly
Their last scream my eternal dirge
Under the fullmoon a funeral
In the forest

Still I walk with open wounds but the third is now
Rising
Through the ashes of a dying love a new soul is born
I watch the feathers like snow in the winter
The angels that fell, splendid to rape

Tall are the shadows that dance before me
As they
Shows the way to the dawn
An autumn forest that never reach
Condemned to sorrow

Chasing the wind / like a spirit fly
Through the autumn trees / towards the sky
Hoofs are pounding / In the clouds above
The chariot of sorrow / watch me die
Hear the violin / so sad and blackened
Like a breeze / the songs of drynhwyl
Chasing the wind / like my spirit die
Dreaming of the queen / the queen of roses

Now they die, pure sorrow flow
My souls funeral, too close to the end
Now they die, purest blood pours
Forever die, but I must...

I must die
Through the sky
And the forest

Follow the wind, go north my child
to the purest of winters
Go to the forest that never ends
There you'll find your fate

And to the north I rode, on the coldest of winds
I watched the mountains where the frost begun
Where no angels ever dare to tread
Where death is all mine

At last I found the throne of bereavement
Grim and bleak raised to the sky
The velvet thorns of drynhwyl are mine
And so are death and sadness

See...
My final sacrifice
In the trees you will hear my voice
Ever calling ever falling

Ten strings of darkness on a violin sad
Flowing tunes on autumn funeral
Ashes spread in the northern storm

Black Erotica

Black theatre of love
Violet dancers cast their blood
The moon gave me flowers
For funerals to come
12 shapes bow before her
I am still one of them
12 morbid ways to die
Her beauty scares me
I'm falling deeper
No more pain to feel now
Touch the silence
Afraid of hell
Black theatre
Violet dancers drink my blood
The moon gave me flowers
For funerals to come
I cannot breathe
I am losing life
The moon paint the skyline blue
She died so beautiful

Love Of The Swan

God - burn me for I am a sinner
I have sold my fortune to the beast
Murders scream for my empty soul
Forever hiding in the life beneath
I lie underneath their grace eternal
Pure white shroud of innocence
God - burn me for I am a sinner
I have killed the love of the swan
I am a murdurer
I scream
I pray for death

Funeral Wedding

Open life beneath
Her glory stains the hearse
Procession watch the rain
Mourns the opposite birth
For the wind hopes to die
Far away from home

Same death serves all / spirits of what will be
Dancing the walls
Scent of silver / through those halls

Shroud of filth embrace me
As the statue stares so cold
Black blue eyes of mourning
Child born to die

Silent tombs wait outside
Monuments of dreamless rains
Torn by the stars
Heaven calls
Burning with sin
Free from within

Endless spikes of certain death, come closer at my hand
Where they will burn in sin, restless wait
The coffin gaps open, laughing at my fear

Silent tombs wait outside
Monuments of dreamless rains
Torn by the stars
Heaven calls
Burning with sin
Free from within

Shades Of Emerald Fields

Dancing through the silent waves
The shimmering moonlight
Over lost angels remains

Whispering through gloomy halls
Beneath the gentle soft caress
Of dreaming shadows

Flowing steams of silver
Through tidal torrents of grief
Time was never there for us
The final tide took the last ones away

Buried visions - of sunrise
Beneath the seas - of torrid soil

Slowly sinking - in the mire
Shades of - emerald fields

Our eyes can't stand the flames
Single sparkles hiding in our palms
They linger before dying away
Fading from out sigh
Loathsome are the ways of those
Who the meadows shall receive
For every glimpse of daylight must vanish
And every soul submit to tide

For Funerals To Come

Through the bleak window of my soul
In marble halls of falling snow
Winter touch the earth undone
Embittered we embrace for funerals to come...

Epistel

[ Instrumental ]

--- DISQUE II ---

Murder

Falled idol
Hanged man
Great winds rides the mill
Further into the vast
Limits do not exist
Five day pain
Closer now than ever
Birds escape
Mute flock of winds
One with weather
Sight is getting dim

Rainroom

We saw it all pass by
And you went by
And I can't control anything
When you said that life can't be what you want
And I really want everything
When I pray
When I believe
I saw it end long before it ended
Life itself turned pale and ended
I saw you cry out acres of your image
Life itself does not heal me
Like a slow scenery
I'm losing all my faith
In lifeless motion
you're walking like you're dead
We saw it all pass by
And you went by
And I can't control anything
When you said that life can't be what you want
And I really want everything

Nowhere

Atmosphere decays in me
I fail to convict my useless days
The lack of substance
Circle of downfall
Exit less ways
Into pale wake
Tired attempts to crush the design
It's like nowhere
I cannot sell the plight that is mine
Everything is real
But I'm not here
I've lost my strength somewhere nowhere
Used to care about weather
Used to plan the days that came
Used to try and watch you
Used to know my name
Someone said remember
But I can't remember anything at all
Anything at all

At Last

All my presence died today
I breathe to memories
Guess I'm closing down
Torn and tired of my heart's sound
What's worth to me
When life's not around
I will sleep tonight
To sleep tomorrow
If I sleep at last
A promise has been broken
The essence of Love in rust
One in a million
I'm the one turning pale
Any colours to express
Apart from bleak is hard
And where you are
My thoughts are in guilt
So forget me
Forget me not
Time to catch something
Since my ticket says the end
All my flowers withered today
The room is quiet
Gues it's Growing cold
Dead calm without my heart's sound
What's worth to you
When I'm not around
I will sleep tonight
To sleep tomorrow
If I sleep at last

Inside The Fall

All noise that breaks my head
I run along the water
You didn't really notice
I've left and gone away
You're like waiting
Incurable disease
Left me waiting
Inside the fall
All waves that traps my breath
I should be in your sight
But you didn't really notice
That I've left and gone away

Untrue

I know I said I would be there
But your wish was something else
And many times we said forever
Death believes we are untrue

Nerve

High white ways
Shattered by rain
Pale dead walls
Nerves pushed in pain
Red light faced
Mirrors of the dead
People in the archways
Eyes full of lead

Always closing down myself
Lower sights and never see
Worlds of noise and worlds of light
Expecting not to be

High white ways
Shattered by rain
Pale dead walls
Nerves pushed in pain
Red light faced
Mirrors of the dead
People in the archways
Eyes full of lead

Always closing down myself
Lower sights and never see
Worlds of noise and worlds of light
Expecting not to be
Not close enough for you
To hear a breath and steal a sight
But just close enough for me
To take a step and pass you by

Saw You Down

As through your shattered eyes
It all came together
And your heart cries
Weeping through the weather
Another way to change your mind
I'm weaker than they say
To leave this all behind
The only way to stay

Don't you know
I'm the end of what will be
And right below us
The last thing you'll see

In the water
I saw you drown
Down the water
I saw you drown

As through my shattered sight
You're no longer here
And my heart cries
Sleeping through the light
Another way to change my mind
Never is the day
To leave it all behind
The only way to stay

Don't you know
I'm the end of what will be
And right below us
The last thing you'll see

In the water
I saw you drown
Down the water
I saw you drown

Quite World

Four numbers staring back at me
Displaying the mediocrity of my presence
I'm wasting my day watching them change
The sun with it's blue sky outside
Shining down on all you happy people
I'm wasting my day waiting for rain
Need more methods to end each day
To be happy by living this way

Scarlet Heavens

Only for the wind I lay myself down
Feeling this scarlet scent of death
Under ebony shades I dream of a child
Dancing in heaven, dancing in heaven

I must have seen this face before
A monument of shallow sorrows
Under ebony shades a child now dies
But grievance won't regain

Something grasp for my soul
I think it's God
But my sorrow is dragging me down
Through my sins

Where is God in his heaven ?
Why am I a twisted mind ?
Now I see the light above
But in darkness I must fall

For my soul you pray at last
Will I find my place ?
The stench of sorrow that pierces my flesh
Can never be pure

When the blackness overwhelms me
Where shall I turn ?
To run away to never look back
To run away from evil

Only for the wind I lay myself down
Feeling this scarlet scent of death
Under ebony shades I dream of a child
Dancing in heaven, dancing in heaven

I must have seen this face before
A monument of shallow sorrows
Under ebony shades a child now dies
But grievance won't regain

Dancing in heaven
