1. Sempiternal Grotesqueries

Lethargic doom bringers
Cloak of the abhorrent
Into despair
Lives torn asunder

Transcendent morphosis
With bloodlust embedded
Decrepit fingers
Entwined to the chalice of gore

Corpses ride

Wailing echoes
Twisted tranquility
Embrace of the chains
Suffocate the soul

Cryptic gatherings
Moon drips above
As pale as death
As daggers rise

Unblessed prisoners of dark lust
Ghoulish revel in affliction

Defilement by instinct
Stolid dismemberment
Utter eclipse
Of sympathy

Unblessed prisoners of dark lust
Ghoulish revel in affliction
Enshroud unknown shapes of pain
Mortalize, strip from godlike

Read from thy flesh
Rude epitaph in blood
Absolving bath
In cascades of fire

Towering fear
Of tragic silhouettes
Pulsating through
The cobwebs of hell

Gro-tes-que-ries
Eternally

Wailing echoes
Twisted tranquility
Embrace of the chains
Suffocate the soul

Cryptic gatherings
Moon drips above
As pale as death
As daggers rise

Unblessed prisoners of dark lust
Ghoulish revel in affliction
Enshroud unknown shapes of pain
Mortalize, strip from godlike

Corpses ride

2. In Eerie Deliverance

Fervent chill of the tears
Caress lacerates
The pledge of innocence

What dwells in these rooms
Dismal demands
To hex and possess

Lord of the damned
Lay waste and command

You were mere a tool
Of their evil device
Used and oppressed

Dreams you thought you've seen
Hallucinations
Oh, they were all real

Doomed to be slave of the pain
Sucking you dry of life

Make you wish you were insane
Ruined by the inner strife

Purgatory
Of your dreams
You will find
Ruled by eerie
Sullen eyes
Burning bright

"Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb?
Yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
As the fullness of the time has come and he sent forth his son, made under the law.
I remember no more the anguish, for the joy that a man is born into the world."

Lord of the dead
Reap and beget

He will show your place
Under the rule
Of the mother's love

Caged upon the pyres
Of the utter clouds engulfed in cold flames

Chosen as vessel for vile
Devil you nurture within
Pale are the halos in dusk
Melt into the realm of sin

Purgatory
Of your dreams
You will find
Ruled by eerie
Sullen eyes
Burning Bright

3. Cathedral Of Labyrinthine Darkness

Black cacophony
Sinners moulder into
Unrest

Ebony chamber
Of flesh incandescent
Ill gleam

See beyond the cross
The labyrinthine dark
Reveries of pain

And the prayers turned
Into a demented mass
Citadel of nightmares

Plunge into gloom
With absurd relief
Inverted shrine
The day is the night

Yeah

Black cacophony
Sinners moulder into
Unrest

See beyond the cross
The labyrinthine dark
Reveries of pain

And the prayers turned
Into a demented mass
Citadel of nightmares

See beyond the cross
The labyrinthine dark
Reveries of pain

And the prayers turned
Into a demented mass
Citadel of nightmares

4. Cascade Of Ashes

Twisted mounds
Of time-ground bones
Coalesce with me
Severed from my soul
Solid grief I bear

My six-foot tarnish
Bleeding mildewed loss
Gravity of torment
Under a septic sky

I am a shadow
Of a fathomless wake
Like a chrisom disfigured
Betrayed by demise
A cascade of timeless ash

Contours fade
At a larval creep
To the boundless night
Meads of sores I reap
Festering disgrace

Dark gales stray searching
For damnation's still
Gaunt be my forgiveness
Left to forever die

I am a shadow
Of a fathomless wake
Like a chrisom disfigured
Betrayed by demise
A cascade of timeless ash

There I roam
The fractured dusk
A fetid dream
Eluding end

Been thrown to aeons
Revived in dust
Agony
In tenebrous shreds

Sad phlegm of the past
Aching to evaporate
In the remains unleashed
Untold depravity

Where death is a tale
A mirage benevolent
I engrave my mark
On this crypt never been sealed

I am a shadow
Of a fathomless wake
Like a chrisom disfigured
Betrayed by demise
A cascade of timeless ash

5. Charnel Reflections

Depraved cries
Shackled to the tongues abject
Demons of the mind
Dance in those eyes
Blood will have blood

Your madness
Like foaming seas
Drowning
In deep fantasies

Holy onslaught
Burning-crucifix-impaling
Torch-bearing death

Profane cries

Your distorted
Glazed skeletons
Languish
In fragments of hell

Fainted pillars
Violently exposed
Sorrowed
Transfixed by endlessness

Crawling on the crags
Of insanity
Languid torment, horrid joy

Your madness
Like foaming seas
Drowning
In deep fantasies

Labyrinthine
Charnel reflections
Roses
Like innards divine

Depraved cries
Demons of the mind
Dance in those eyes
Blood will have blood

Crawling on the crags
Of insanity
Languid torment, horrid joy

Beyond the curtains black
Your thousand faces abstract
A living statue of lunacy

7. Sorrows Of The Moon

оригинал: Celtic Frost

This evening the moon dreams more lazily
As some fair woman, lost in cushions deep
With gentle hand caresses listlessly
The contour of her breasts before she sleeps

On velvet backs of avalanches soft
She often lies enraptured as she dies
And gazes on white visions aloft
Which like a blossoming to heaven rise

When sometimes on this globe, in indolence
She lets a secret tear drop down, by chance
A poet, set against oblivion

Takes in his hand this pale and furtive tear
This opal drop where rainbow hues appear
And hides it in his breast far from the sun
