1. Indulgence Aveugle
Ecoute au lointain la peine du loup qui se meurt
La chair et la neige se mêlant avec le sang et la haine
Mon amour pour toi m'a mené à la schizophrénie
Et j'erre si seul dans mes propres fantasmagories
Embrasse-moi, je t'accueille puissant dieu de la nuit
L'agonie déchire ma peau et la lumière alors m'apparaît
Me révélant ainsi ma pauvre et misérable vie
Sur le sentier vierge et morne des héros perdus, je péris...
Ne me pardonne pas je n'en ai pas besoin
Un souhait mourant c'est tout ce que tu demeures
J'aurais pu toucher la fin de mon martyre
Mais tu as décidé d'empoisonner mes veines
Et maintenant je ne peux même plus mourir
Car les ténèbres ne me cacheront pas
Mon âme est vide et mon cœur est si froid
Pas de délivrance, juste de la peine et de la souffrance
Si seulement j'avais pu te tuer
J'aurais pu te garder prés de moi
Ce que la vie ne m'a pas enseigné
La mort me le dira
Une fois que je fus à genoux pour te supplier
De me sauver de tes péchés...de tous tes péchés
Mais tous mes jours devinrent nuits
Mon passé réduit en cendres, pas d'aube
Plus d'aurore ni d'espoir, rien que la haine
Glaçant mon sang si noir
Je jure que je ne te laisserai pas devenir saine
Prends garde à la furie d'un fantôme périssant
Qui sombre dans les souvenirs et la peine!
La folie me submerge, je me tiens comme un enfant
Face à ses erreurs, sans mots, mon âme disparaît
Ma fierté me quitte
La mort, la mort, la mort
C'est tout ce qui me reste à vivre
Mais je dois d'abord achever ma propre tragédie
Un souhait un soupir mourant...
Au plus profond de mon être
J'ai peur de ce spectre
Le pardon que tu invoques
C'est toi-même qui me l'a retiré
Un enfant aurait pu naître
Mais c'est un horrible chien qui à surgit
Pourquoi devrais-je vivre plus longtemps?
Je mourrai de t'avoir aimé
Meurs, meurs, meurs, meurs avec moi
La grande faucheuse approche de ce champ infertile
Que je suis devenu!
Plus rien ne vit en cette marionnette
Rien que de la poussière d'étoile qui disparaît avec une larme
Qui s'envole avec le souffle du loup traqué, désespéré...
Jamais plus je ne me tiendrai debout
Et pourtant la nuit aurait du engendrer l'aurore
Entends-tu au loin le cris du loup qui se meurt
C'est sa toute dernière complainte
Aucun récital ne me sauvera de mon agonie céleste
2. Le Chant Des Bannis (Nocturnal Call Part I)
A shapeless image of a body naked
Twisting in front of my eyes
Surronding by the shadows that whisper
Thy name and praise a glorious one
Enthralled by these voices
I drown in the depths of the night
Ah I take my hand and guide me through these woods of sin
Let me lust with thee and fulfil my darkest dreams
We dance above all carnal beings
Our flesh as one is burning under the cold
Winter rainfall
The blacken beauty of a forgotten nation
Raising above the earthly mist
Ah I take my hand and lead me
To the faery land of winds
Open your arms and embrace my skin...
Le rêve noir qui sommeille en moi
S'élève et prend place, me domine, fait loi
Il éveille mes sens, me fait sentir le marbre
Qui accueille sans fin, cette danse macabre
The call of the shades
The taste of the blade
The dusk is my drape
I shall have no regret
Call me a demon even if I'm more
There is no reason for you to ignore
That I am one with the night
And I'll be forever in...flames
We, the wolves children of lust
We wander eternally to find ours prays
Hunting as one stronger together
We follow the path of a forgotten time
And we sing at night our pain
Our hearts are full of anger and our blood...
...Is our pride
Ah I take my hand and guide me through these woods of sin
Let me lust with thee and fulfil my darkest dreams
No sin is feared for there is no god...
Children we are but
Children of a misunderstood nation
Our fate, our creation
3. The Forthcoming Answer (Version 2000)
Seeing through the veil of time
Riding on the lifeless tide
The future that I can see
Rememberance of my memory
Wandering among the dead
Vision through their eyes so red
As past stands before me
In abyss of time, I wander eternally
Bleeding my hate, the punishment that seals my fate
Bearing my cross, my life in dismay, I am lost
Yearning for salvation
The tribute to pay, my own damnation
I am sick of this life
If only I could simply have an end
And finally die...
Like a tear in the ocean
As light of a dying sun
I am condemned to wander
In cold pain full of anger
For a fault I've never done
All my hopes now are gone
Crying on a corpseless tomb
Will never forgive my doom
After so many years of life in hate and fear
My very eyes are opened on reality since it has begun
And I'm delivered from this spell
And I crush the gates of hell, of hell...
I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees...
Now I know! I'll soon go to the end of her reign
Now, now I know! I'll soon go to the end of her rain...
4. An Orchid In My Belfry (Nocturnal Call Part II, Live Version)
The stained glass windows as a philter reveal me veiled wisdom
Through the icons once carved in blood I drawn secret visions of mankind
An occult light hidden by centuries of sorrow will shine again in my church
Fear, hatred
Torment, these are the foundations of my night
Etrenal, moonless
Colder than a death of thousand years in heaven
Stars as my swans darken the hollow sky of your life
I'm a conqueror of kind that will never die
For hate in mankind will never wither
As the blue fire of my dreams which once turned black is burning again
Hell, sin
Just words I swear I'll apply
Heaven, or god
Satan they are just foolish illusions
Oh, I believe in my soul
No one will reject my spirit once again
As my shadow spreads it's eerie gaters
And transcend my revenge
Listen, listen to this prelude to your infernal journey
Touch the thorns of my bloodmade crown
Feel the pleasure of sadistic remembraces...
more than anything, I pray to quit this embodied earth,
Never again shall I live with this burden over my flesh
All their souls just can't reach nothing, for I refuse love to set my
Life...
The pillars of my faith are made of a stone which some call heart
Now, yester, tomorrow, time is not my ally but suicide helps my church to
Grow.
(help me, help me, help me, save me)
Among this penumbral light there's still a glowing ember, there is this
Light
I can touch this orchid, I can feel it, I could...
And I have achieved my masterpiece
A psychotic palace of banished
Remembraces, vanished in a desolate breath
I contemplate this unfertile fields that are mine...
Preacher, sinner
Dreamer that takes possession of time
Father and son
Gathered in one soul
Forever at one as the firing candle in the dark
But who loves me?
Will I never be this one again?..

6. Rotten Love (Live Version)
Eternal night, internal fight a struggle
Within never ceasing,
Enter my world, the secret landscapes I rule,
The land of the dancing shadows...
God the enchanter,
A soul devourer
Seen holy only by the blinds,
But she is no more,
Thy will be done
From this chaos I rise
Enthroned god of bloody tears...
Day by day your image fades,
And your face as an icon
Will be the key to my kingdom,
As a new born child I cry out with pain
The thorns of my crown carve my wounds so deeply
And I dance on your grave,
But they shall old no barriers between you& I...
God the enchanter,
A soul devourer
Seen holy only by the blinds,
But she is no more,
Thy will be done
From this chaos I rise
Enthroned god of bloody tears...
Our pale embrace survives beyond dawn,
Like two stars in the early morning haze,
Although not visible to common eyes
We are IMMORTAL...
An endless HEARTBEAT...
Now I'm dead but yet my life has just begun,
On this winter's day my prison of flesh,
Become palatable for worms,
On this winter's day... I rest in peace,
Eternal night, internal fight a struggle
Within never ceasing,
Enter my world, the secret landscapes I rule,
The land of the dancing shadows... SHADOWS
God the enchanter,
A soul devourer
Seen holy only by the blinds,
But she is no more,
Thy will be done
From this chaos I rise
Enthroned god of bloody tears...
Day by day your image fades,
And your face as an icon
Will be the key to my kingdom,
On this winter's day... I rest in peace
7. On The Wings Of The Black Rain (Live Version)
it rains in my soul someday
it rains on my soul
it rains
I feel the shadows overwhelming me
from the bottomless pit of sunken dreams
tearing my tormented soul apart
they call me from beyond...
beyond the horizon...
beyond their reason
twisted minds for perverse tastes
a lust consumed by a neverending fire
burn my son, light their path, behold their weakness
why am I denied
by your own hand
why have I to stand against this world of pain
drape me in this velvet veil, a rose on my skin
the thorns spread my bloody fear...sin
oh, pulsating beat of my inner storm, I hear the cries of thousand frightened
funeral crows that haunt human deepest deviances
seeking a truth for I can't see reality, I search for a long time disappeard
heavenly ground where I could stalk, majestic...
embrace of the new Aeon
is like the weight of my crown
the whip to lash your faith
for I'll soon be the conqueror of this dying world
I will unleash my wrath (oh black rain)
pour yourself into me
and I still long for a new day
trying to know how to keep me sane
withering like teardrops in the ocean
withering like flowers in the dust...
the sands of time over my shoulders (oh black rain)
show me the way...
feel the bitter tears falling into drops of wine
I reborn under the wings of the black rain
8. Dark Retaliations (Live Version)
Once upon the cross
When mankind was lost
A human rised and stood against god
He gave light to men
He brought them the flame
To see the lies through the darkness
Oh lord
Throne of blood
Creator of lost souls
Ignorance fades away
They found their own way
Delivered from the dictatorship
Seeing his defeat
Lost of benefits
The altar needs a sacrifice
God of none and all
Fake bloody idol
Crucified the new messiah
Prometheus his name
The innocent condemned
By fear of god to loose his ship
