1. Between Wisdom...

2. No Gods Have Built My Skies

Strike like all heavens thunder force a new day to begin
And that will be my will
Teach then the secret of fire unchain the Olympian flame
Either be bound furthermore to the ties of the law
Like a child full of shame, full of guilt
Or to reign with the glad only ruled by the sunset
Under a sky no gods have built

So it shall be written
So it shall be done

Illuminate, fan the lights of darkness illustrate their master-plan
Infiltrate, sow the fruit of knowledge to feed this starving land
Set victory above all costs or victory'll be lost

The self-fulfilling prophecy of Armageddon comes alive
When the pages of the book of truth cut through flesh like knives
And ancient names be told who's names were lost or sold
Elements of wind and fire, water and of earth
I call your spirits to give this loam-formed statue breath and birth
That with ambition and time it will arrange his live and path his own step's fate
Then find a bride and found a tribe that will climb till heaven's gate

We are the fires in darkness
We are the pleasure, the sin
We 'II keep the treasure of violence
Metal is our second skin

We are the shadows of blackness
We are the wisdom within
We will discover the islands
Where we'II be kings

I will alarm thee the best I can
When all my hopes and fears
Are scattered by the wind – then I say
I will alarm thee and it won't end
Until the time has come
To bid farewell and cheer a dying man

So it shall be written
So it shall be done
Upon a throne of gold you'll be sitting
Be king, my son

Illuminate, fan the lights of darkness...

3. Of Troll And Thurs

Out of the unworld rolls the train of troll and thurs
We rig the black ship, proof the planks, set sail to Asgard's shores
All winds shall carry along the lore about our course
They're giants under arms and they bring war to sacred halls – again

Hordes roaring and pounding attack the castle walls
With no remorse out of the deep
Their horns still resounding as arrows paint the skies
In darkness while lightning strikes beneath

We're born from fire and build by ice
We lead that wilder immortal life

So throw your storms upon file as if they safe you
From fighting another round
We will hunt six nights through dust
I and conquering your town

We're elemental forces slumbering beyond
So don't disturb our sleep, for we are known for odd response
Now as the days get faster, don't forget too soon
And put the tale of troll and thurs into a rune – my friend

By starlit night-fires jump from board and clench your fist to devastate the land
Join into our choirs that echo through the hills and valleys: nature might strike back

4. Song Inside

On the oceans of time we have travelled so far
Left the ages behind us to discover the worlds
Which lie beyond the reality of our sleeping minds
Let the raging winds fill black sails up high
May the sea is calm for our final journey
Into the unknown horizon, to the dark side of the sun

Midwinter – whisper of ancient ages
Midwinter – my soul, my bride
Midwinter – wisdom of forgotten pages
Midwinter – the song of my pride

We'll never break the oath of our left hand path
That we have sworn one night when all the stars turned black
As black as the blood flowing in our veins
On the battlefield of our crumbling hopes
We shall fight together against the prophets of false
And tormented belief, let's crush the with all might!

Midwinter – the spawn of battle that rages
Midwinter – the sound inside
Midwinter – old yarn of drunken sailors
Midwinter –play the song as I die

As our fortress fell
As we heard the sign of withdrawal
Corrupted, raped and humiliated
By the plundering seed of the dawn

Retreat in shame
But an oaths was sworn that night
That we never forget – and we haven't yet
To return to the foes of the light

Nov is our strength returning
From an unholy bound
And our army is yearning
For hunting them down
We have struggled through the fire
That our enemy has set
Just to take all those lives
That the first wave has left

We have overran the ruins
We have overran the plain
On a victory that's incomplete
Abandoned, lost and slain
There shall be a day of paying
When thev demand what we did sell
We are waiting and dying
To defy the fiends of hell

Open sight on sea
Land I love, my destiny
Sky-like creatures welcome me
So forever dead and free
Storm-blessed landscapes of the wind
Lead me where my road begins
Early memories wave goodbye
But I keep this song inside

On the oceans of time...

5. Monument Of Pain

What have I done?
We'll I don't know
The doubt of corruption
Tears my soul
I awake from my nightmare
To fall into another one
An emotion so painful and deep
I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders
What have I done
What really happened?
Well, I don't know
The scenery was just the same

I cannot run, I cannot hide
I should be strong, but I'm weak inside
I'm made of rock, I'm made of stone
Stand in the crowd, but I feel alone

Caress and beauty, oh, she deceived me
I fell in love with the demon of seduction
Angel's eyes but wings of fire
Rule my life, rule my desire
How I long for her kiss
Lips so soft and warm
Sweet taste of malignancy
Stopped my breath and turned me to stone

I cannot run...

6. Bleeding Black Fire

Nocturnal poems and sorcery
Our witches cast their spells
Incarnation of the ancient ones
Reborn through agony

Thee, who are bleeding black fire
Thee, who will crush the fucking liars

Smell the stench of broken spirits
Gathered in the deep
Once covered their face in vanity
Now cursed for all eternity

Bleeding black fire

Desecration of morality
Despite the false betrayers
Let's drown them in their sacred blood
'Cause this is our desire!

Bleeding black fire (2nd spit upon the liars!)

Become a demon of wrath and revenge
To enthrone the serpent-tongued god
March against the unworthy ones
Obliteration!
Rise from beyond the blackest dimensions
Enfold your mighty wings

Spill your semen to darken the signs
The last invocation!

Bleeding black fire
Bleeding black fire

Summoning of unspeakable
And long forgotten creatures
Guardians of forbidden worlds
Come forth to rule thy kingdom!

We, who are bleeding black fire
We, who will wart and admire

The shadow-cult is still alive
Revival of the order
To recreate what they once lost
Expand beyond the border
The dragonsifly again!

7. Thorns Of Ice

Einsamkeit! Die Erkenntnis des Seins
Erleuchtend und grausam zugleich
Wie ein Faustschlag auf hartes Gestein
Jäher Schmerz fährt durch das Gebein
Bittere Winde zerreißen die Haut
Schatten aus Eis folgen Dir
Heimlich flüsternd und ewig present
Streicheln sie kalt Dein Gesicht

Des Eines Dorn in Deiner Brust – die Seele schreit!
Des Winters Zorn erfriert das Herz
Zu lange bliebst auf diesem Weg
Der Lügen Schafft, mit Blindheit straft

Legionen vor, toter Materie
Gebrochen durch eigene Hand
Einst geboren im Zeichen des Unlichtes
Reich an unbändiger Kraft
Doch Äonen des künstlichen Lichts
Geschaffen durch Torheit und Wahn
Zerbrachen die Anmut der Kinder des Mondes
Formten das faulende Fleisch

Dunkelheit! Du schützende Hand
Zuflucht vor menschlicher Pein
Endlos suchend im Schlamm der Gesichtslosen
Niemals wieder vereint
Schwarze Dornen verankert im Geist
Gesegnet von uraltem Stamm
Geküßt von der Mutter, die schlafend, doch wacht
Seit Anbeginn der Zeit

Des Eises Dorn...

Seht die Pfade wahrhaftigen Ichs
Umwölkt ist der Geist, der noch lebt
Und wandelt in stetigem Zwielicht
Verkümmert das Auge, was wirklich sieht
Steigt empor, wendet ab euch vom Heer
Der Würmer – so klein und so leer
Umarmt den Ursprung der Unendlichkeit
Entdeckt die wahren Wurzeln Eures Selbst!

8. Dragonrock

One hundred wizards cast their spells – wc walk on-stage
All lightning striking powered bv the gathered mages
One thousand trolls will raise their fists and move their clubs
Destroying evervthing and devastate the pubs
The air is burning, it gets dangerous up there
Beware! – Beware!
While every demon born in hell will be unlocked
We rock! – We rock!

Wc rock a dream without binding and blinding known front
Then while asleep we could dream this great dream far beyond
The end of the world just one stop on a voyage we've done
Set out on the storm for my friendyou know it has just begun

Black shadows bouncing on the groaning gallery
They're throwing trash upon the thrashing folks beneath
Thev cheer out loud and interrupt their heavy rage
While we move on and start to burn this fucking stage
Those who misprize the love and anger we all share
Beware! – Beware!
No one will ever bar the path on that we walk
We rock! – Wc rock!

We rock a dream...

We scream for more and the berserkers screaming back
We're at the pulse of night, we're pushing up the pack

At last a thunder roars, an earthquake crushcs thc door
Then murmur rises, something's happening on the floor
Old dragon enters, makes some fun and burns some hair
Bewarc! – Beware!
The day shall dawn and mister Death might watch the clock
But we rock! – We rock!

Amplified feelings – Metal-suggestion
Enchanting. believiing – Never to rest again
We 're on road to let them know this is Dragonrock
Amplified feelings – Metal-suggestion
Enchanting, believing – Never to rest again
We're on road to let them know we are Midwinter...

9. Where Steel Is Born

In the raven's shadows we will march upon
once proud and heathen shores
Sword and axe and shield at hand,
tonight this ground will turn to red!
They came from far away across the ocean wide
And talked to us in foreign tongues
Of the pearly gates and the crucified one,
of damnation?nd that we're gonna die

"My son. you betterpray to our god.
or your soul will forever burn in the fires of hell!"

Warriors come drink with me upon our final victory
Raise your swords up high against divine hypocrisy!
We will never break the oath of our ancestors
Warriors, come ride with me, let them know where steel is born!

With the serpent's tongue they.promiscd us the golden hall here down on earth
Those countless brave men who stood against them were slaughtered in tlie name of their cross!
Odin! Guide us all as we revenge our brothers lives
The time has come to let them taste our blades, finally live as free men again!

We'll never crawl into the dust of broken hopes
For our families we strike
We never turn away from our true and ancient spirits
Never fall from grace again!

We're the sons of the northern hemisphere
Hearts of fire, souls of ice
Like a blizzard chasing our enemies
Let them feel where steel is born!

Warriors, come drink with me...

Like a storm of fury we will bring upon the raped and bleeding land
To heal with metal, let fire be the eure
Oh, gods up high

In the raven's shadows...

Warriors – come and sing with me of brave man dying for victory
So raise your horns around the fire knowing your souls will soon rise higher!

10. Blessed With Wings Of Madness

Have travelled far throughout so little space among me and journeyed cross a restless sea
They say the distances are nothing but a headache had locked my brain and ate the keys

As if they know what are the horrors that surround us they never face them, but I do
As if they know at least of any of the riches of the empire that I rule

I have come to change all meaning
I become a foe to all you fools

A throne a prison, ah, just words for this dark cage all meaningless, my lord, a king in other spheres
Amongst the billions unsuspecting and blasphemous heaven-sent to reign with fear

I have come to change all meaning
Heaven-sent to reign with fear
Amongst the billions unsuspecting and blasphemous
I become a foe to all you fools

Blessed With Wincs Of Madness
Blessed With Wincs Of Madness

The visions come and go the dreamlands disappear
Merciless crown, oh, stab your thorns into my fear
Serenely let mc suffer martyrdom and pain
With wings of madness – blessed within

Oh, ghastly moments that I can't refrain from yet
I feit betrayed and double-crossed
When all hopes gone and all my love forever lost
Oh, god I know, you need me dead

Oh, father pass this bitter grail over and help me
l'm not the one to change all fate

My son, you are – be strong and patient
Rule Messiah of the Mad!

When a world turns to a dying place
Nightmares in my hands
And the earth's crawling down the walls I face
Hold close we're never frightened again
When a world turns into oblivion
Far. far from my hands
Will you keep me from sanity – or die again

11. Alone With My Sorrow

Deep are the wounds and deeper is the emptiness
You left silence can be painful like razors cutting my flesh
I can still smell your perfume which remembers me of withering autumn leaves ah
I feel your warm breath on my neck but I know, when
I turn around, there is only darkness never again
The mourning wind will caress your skin never again
The moonlight will be captured in your eyes and never again
The cold rain will moisten your hair it shall now moisten the flowers
I laid down at your feet, yesterday why did you leave me
Without a very last word why did you leave me alone alone with my sorrow

12. Pet Sematary

оригинал: Ramones

Under the arc of a weather stain boards
Ancient goblins, and warlords,
Come out the ground, not making a sound,
The smell of death is all around,
And the night when the cold wind blows
No one cares, nobody knows.

I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again,
I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again.

Follow victor to the sacred place
This aint a dream, I cant escape
Molars and fangs, the clicking of bones,
Spirits moaning among the tombstones,
And the night, when the moon is bright,
Someone cries, something aint right.

I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again,
I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again.

The moon is full, the air is still,
All of the sudden I feel a chain,
Victor is grinning, flesh rotting away,
Skeletons dance, I curse this day,
And the night when the wolves cry out,
Listen close and you can hear me shout.

I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again,
I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again, oh, no, oh, no
I dont want to live my life again, oh, no, oh, oh
I dont want to live my life again, oh, no, no, no
I dont want to live my life again, oh, oh

13. ...And Lunacy
