1. Dismal

With stabbing pain awoken
Swallowed up by sorrow
Inside a thousand silent screams world escapes in endless nights
Ashen phantoms, desperation
Obeyingfear and blindness
Oh withering hope
Dismal, dismal – disheartening to hear! abysmal! dismal, dismal – disheartening to see! abysmal!
Descendants of creators crown of thorns
Testimony of savage greed
Blood on their hands and death in their breath just waiting for an end of deathlike silence
Bereaved of tomorrow
O leaders of blackened wastelands
When night will fall in an empty cosmos, a spiral in black illuminating [this] path of the damned... of the damned
With stabbing pain awoken
Swallowed up by sorrow
Inside a thousand dismal dreams
Dismal, dismal – disheartening to hear! abysmal!
Dismal, dismal – disheartening to see! abysmal! world escapes in endless nights
Ashen phantoms, desperation
Oh withering hope descendants of creators crown of thorns
Staring at their mountains of grief blood on their hands and death in their breath

2. Towards The Leaden Sky

Aroused by whispers of the shattered ones, the withered souls – entangled behind all light
Fear the ones, who claim to serve the lord
With hypnotizing tongues so sweet
In cold embrace of mendacity
Involuntary forced servitude
Truth or dare no matter they abuse
What they receive
Marching onwards, towards the leaden sky absent of mind in weeping woods of isolation
Exposed to their dismissive stare behind bleeding masquerades.
That pierces their existence...
Merciless and grotesque
Hamstringed in a coma of disillusion
Absorbed in a thousand lakes of lies
Obscuration takes [the] sight
As they raise their tired heads
Dust hurts inside empty eyes
Killing the truth they have believed in their dreams lurking in their frozen shapes
Across the absence of radiance – towards, towards the leaden sky
Ophthalmic shadows, onwards – towards, towards the leaden sky
The illusions they've lived – towards, towards the leaden sky
Ophthalmic shadows, onwards, forwards – towards the leaden sky
Their mind has been murdered by bloodstains of alienation
Staring quietly and motionless at the scars of creation fear the whispers of the shattered ones,
The withered souls – entangled behind all light
Fear the ones, who put their lives in wicked, forgotten hands of deceit marching.
Onwards, towards the leaden sky
Absent of mind in weeping woods of isolation
Exposed to their dismissive stare behind bleeding masquerades that pierces their existence
As they raise their tired heads
Dust hurts in their empty eyes killing the truth they have believed in their dreams
Lurking in their frozen shapes...
Merciless... it's grotesque
Hamstringed in a coma of disillusion absorbed in a thousand lakes of lies
Obscuration takes the sight
Across the absence of radiance – towards, towards the leaden sky
Ophthalmic shadows, onwards – towards, towards the leaden sky
The illusions they've lived – towards, towards the leaden sky
Ophthalmic shadows, onwards, forwards – towards the leaden sky

3. Golgotha

Amongst wuthering black coal deserts
Feeble shapes passing the trail of dying lights
Uncanny echoes unfold by master's command
With invisible strength forevermore
Bleeding sanctimonious eyes
Grotesque enthrallment of the blind
Horrified voices from afar
Groan with pain
To golgotha!
Frozen minds imprisoned in black
Nurtured by obsidian lies, which have darkened their desires salivating with pleasure
Their morbid greed a pointless act
That blazes its trail through generations
Why cry for bliss and salvation?
Give in to the promise of a golden victory
Praising the twilight saint's prayerful exhalation
Invocation of collapse at the very end [at the very end]
Barren landscapes deserted and left to decay
Eternally blessed by the grace of the master's lies
Golgotha!
Inverted light
Gathering shadows descend
Painful susurration from afar
Oh golgotha! oh golgotha! repeat < uncanny echoes unfold by master's command
With invisible strength forevermore
Bleeding sanctimonious eyes
Grotesque enthrallment of the blind
Horrified voices from afar
Groan with pain
To golgotha! to golgotha! frozen minds imprisoned in black
Nurtured by obsidian lies, which have darkened their desires
Salivating with pleasure
Their morbid greed a pointless act that blazes its trail through generations
Why cry for bliss and salvation? give in to the promise of a golden victory
Amongst wuthering black coal deserts feeble shapes passing the trail of dying lights

4. Shadowfathers

Under sorrow sullen skies a withered sun draws relentless waters
To deepen the traces of all evil
To extinguish our individuality
To unleash our greed
Deceit revealed to their eyes
Disguised in pretended consternation lead: enrich promises of sanctuary
Made by false leaders, shadowfathers chorus
False solemn promises were made by false leaders – shadowfathers
With hypnotizing lies so sweet, darkening of desires
Were breathing their rope of sand, enchanted by their empty words
False prayerful exhalations unfurl, in the silent face of night
In the silent face of night
That darkness behind their light
False solemn promises were made by false leaders – shadowfathers
With hypnotizing lies so sweet, darkening of desires
Ill-nurtured by echoing monuments of perversions and fears
Did you really believe their words of dust?
Its's just all smoke and mirrors
Under sorrow sullen skies a withered sun draws relentless waters
To deepen the traces of all evil
To extinguish our individuality
To unleash our greed
Deceit revealed to their eyes
Disguised in pretended consternation

5. Perdition Portal

[Ever since the very beginning...
Far beyond, outlands forlorn
Resting drowned in tidal ground
What once was lost, was lost forever
What once was lost, got never found]
Trails alongside darkened waters
Wrapped in conjuration's haze surrounded by sonorous silence
Whispers from an ancient maze
Scattered fragments carry faces
Soughing winds like moaning sins
Impervious enigma razes the chasm into chasms sinks
Predicted – elected – infested
[The] second coming leads us to release
Predicted – afflicted – convicted
[The] second coming leads us to relief
Step into unlighted vastness
Vanish! bid farewell to life
Cross the passage to perdition
The guards are soon to rearise
Step into unlighted vastness so far you are, so far you're mortal
Crossing passage to perdition
The passage through perdition portal
[From now on...]
Praise the blackness infinite to welcome mastery yet unborn
Turn glory into purgatory
Down... down with the dawn!
Down with the dawn!
At last the inner self's defeat
Darksome forces are oncoming
With burning breath, no strength to speak
It's all about a new becoming scattered...
Ever since the very end...
When time is no longer passing by unraveling the spell seems to be nigh
When false divinity pretends
And blazing deathlessness descends
When life deforms, obscureness reigns
On highest peak the great one of a kind remains
But if timelessness turns into tense
Undying forces will arise
And all of us should realize
[That nothing... nothing really ends!]
Step into unlighted vastness
Vanish! bid farewell to life
Cross the passage to perdition
The guards are soon to rearise
Step into unlighted vastness
So far you are, so far you're mortal
Crossing passage to perdition
The passage through perdition portal

6. Treacherous Grounds

Dimly falls the gloaming black
Like a curtain on the night
Bewildered voices all around
Enchanting tongues and restless sounds
Shallow waters whisper trembling luring souls while the wind blows cold
Tantalized and tortured
By so many faceless fears
Countless years, their eyes turn old
Bitter cold winds freeze tears that fall
Kept in never-ending thrall
No redemption for them all
Hounded along starless slopes
Dazzled by false views and hopes
No path in sight, no way to follow, when all beliefs emerge as hollow
Anesthesia
Drowning in a sea of fears
All that is left are bitter tears
Oh anesthesia
All that is left – a convulsive gasp for breath
Grounds leading astray
A quiet witness on the way, the only one who stay...
On treacherous grounds leading astray...
Dimly falls the gloaming black
Like a curtain on the night
Bewildered voices all around
Enchanting tongues and restless sounds
Shallow waters whisper trembling
Luring souls while the wind blows cold
Tantalized and tortured by so many faceless fears
Countless years, their eyes turn old
Bitter cold winds freeze tears that fall
Kept in never-ending thrall
No redemption for them all enclosing trepidation – closer comes the realm of death
A last terrified whisper, a last petrified breath, their fate, their doom, they must abide
Sink or swim but do not hide
Embarked on the stream once more
Drifting slowly away from the shore so close but out of reach
Enclosing trepidation – closer comes the realm of death a last petrified breath
Hounded along starless slopes
Dazzled by false views and hopes
No path in sight, no way to follow, when all beliefs emerge as hollow anesthesia
Drowning in a sea of fears
All that is left are bitter tears oh anesthesia
All that is left – a convulsive gasp for breath
Treacherous grounds leading astray
A quiet witness on the way, the only one who stay... on treacherous grounds leading astray...
So fuel the flames of frozen fire untie the chains of suppressed desires
Give birth to thoughts hidden in secret chambers
Not to preserve the ashes but to fan the embers!
Fuel the flames!

7. Abyssphere

Sacred guards of blindness are on their path
While bleakly rises the shrouded night bewildered minds wreathed in doom
Scattered ashes of ghastly gloom
In a world that they designed
Like a dark and lonely dream
Masqueraders and pretenders of illusion and confusion
Hear their whispers, breathe their breath
Gazing at this voiceless mass
Tragedies repeat themselves
Where lies insist on obedience there is no time left to pray and kneel
So rise! ablaze with light!
And see! unfurl the deepest hollows!
Go ahead and face your fear!
Monsters among us in manic agony
With constant hunger and constant thirst
Won't their greed ever end?
Oppressive behavior of pointless absurdity
The abyss is here
Fear walks beside the abyssphere
Fear walks beside the abyssphere
Fear the abyssphere the abyss is here repeat

8. All Light Swallowed

Hollow echoes of oblivion
Illusions of blinded minds
Dissolving traces leading nowhere
Empty eyes gazing at the barren sky
Awaiting the end to come
Listen for the silentness
Their soughs a timeless mourning, an endless grief, an endless grief
Whispering leaves crumbling beneath their feet
Seas of shade-grown funeral flowers blown away lives of faceless precursors
All light swallowed, all light swallowed down within the void
Disassociated from what was left to them
All light swallowed
A dreadful wound that never heals
They wreathed among the soil, they kneel
Soulless masses, drifting shapes
Streaming through asphyxiation
Grasping their desperate essences
Multiplying their silent screams
Taking from them what was never theirs
Erasing their mark
Grasping, multiplying, taking – erasing their mark
Hollow echoes of oblivion
Passing the last frontier
None of them saw the signs
Ignorant in despise
All light swallowed, all lightswallowed down within the void
Disassociated from what was left to them all light swallowed
Their dreadful wound will never heal
They wreathed among the soil, they kneel
Behind them graves of generations
Streaming through asphyxiation

9. Morbid Divinity

Seeds of obscureness, shadows coiling up in dust
Age of desperation, mankind drifting in floods of war
In the name of the divine for fame and greediness
Unsatisfiable primitive ignorance
Neverending confusion, a passage of dashed hopes
Crestfallen purity of pure despair
When darkened winds do blow and it creeps into their hearts
There's darkness along the road, where shadows in circle in silence
Dissolving in silence
Led by blindness along the road
Dissolving in silence
... In silence... in silence
... In silence... in silence
Mesmerized by demise
[Their] primitive instincts rise again
Primitive instincts rise again
Mesmerized by demise paralyzed in agitation
Stunned by [its] morbid divinity
Circling voices in an echoing loop demanding pleasures, empty – headed
A soulless whispering, brilliance full of lies
... Of lies!

10. Calamity Choir

It feels like drowning in sadness
The emptiness the fear the pain in my mind
About a decade of anger in my frozen soul
Will I ever get old?
Calamity... calamity trapped in my body
Couldn't ever get out
At the horizon is fading a perpetual sound
A depressive season with no end in sight
A mental cage like a grave
With nowhere to hide
Thoughts driving in circles through my brain
On and on and again and again
When the night has come
I am the lonely one
Alone with me and myself
With my restlessness
At the point of no return of my live... calamity there is still the time to set my mind free... calamity
Leaving all the fears threw them away... calamity
Falling forever – can you hear the cries of dismay?
Calamity... calamity choir... calamity
Did I deserve this?
What have I done?
A deeper slumber
And the tears are gone
Sinking down from heaven above
Like a leaf from a tree
All hope is gone
The candle burns
A light I can see
This is how its used to be
The rain is over
The pages are turned
The lessons of life
That I have learned
Calamity... calamity... calamity... calamity
