Samael
Lux Mundi
1. Luxferre
It’s time for moving on as the past is too worn
Our life has just begun and a new day is born
No more prevarication, no more delay
I ain’t gonna await my last breath to say
More light for the thoughts that I dig
More light in the places I stay
More light on the path that I walk
More light ‘round the questions that I bear
More light in the eyes that I see
More light in the light that I bring
My kingdom is from this world
I burn from the fire that I hold
It’s a simplicity of utter complexity
We’re holding the key to a life of wealth and luxury
Our body, our mind all the rest is so unreal
See knowledge is an ever-growing flame
More light for the thoughts that I dig
More light in the places I stay
More light on the path that I walk
More light ‘round the questions that I bear
More light in the eyes that I see
More light in the light that I bring
Turn it, turn it on
More light’s what matters and after all what we’re all after
A better sight, a clearer view of what’s about to come
Turn it, turn it now
Turn your eyes to the other side
Your temple is inside
More light for the thoughts that I dig
More light in the places I stay
More light on the path that I walk
More light ‘round the questions that I bear
More light in the eyes that I see
More light in the light that I bring
My kingdom is from this world
I burn from the fire that I hold
My kingdom is from this world
This new era will be brighter and bold
Brighter and bold
2. Let My People Be!
This earth is my country where everyone should be free
No more hypocrisy this world’s falling into agony
Many tried and are still trying to lead you astray, make you feel small
They tell you not to worry that all is good and under control
Rules are made to be broken and that’s only what they are for
There’s no one to bow before
Now let my people be!
We don’t ever wanna hear ‘bout the joy of servility
Freedom is no tyranny
So let my people be!
No need for a scapegoat when your oppressor
Happens to be none other than you
Got the right not to conform
The right not to accept
The right to be and the right to live
A life that’s real a life that is alive
Rules are made to be broken and that’s only what they are for
There’s no one to bow before
Now let my people be!
We don’t ever wanna hear ‘bout the joy of servility
Freedom is no tyranny
So let my people be!
Don’t suck in when you should spit, don’t give in when you should fight
Don’t suck in when you should spit, don’t give in when you should fight
Choose what feels right over what’s said to be so
You won’t ever suffer
The contortions of a mind trying to make a circle square
This earth is my country where everyone should be free
No more hypocrisy this world’s falling into agony
Many tried and are still trying to lead you astray, make you feel small
They tell you not to worry that all is good and under control
Rules are made to be broken and that’s only what they are for
There’s no one to bow before
Now let my people be!
We don’t ever wanna hear ‘bout the joy of servility
Freedom is no tyranny
So let my people be
3. Of War
Anger - the force of the weak that tricks oneself but fools no one
Power - the force that absorbs without being overwhelmed
War the deeper scar of history
War the sanctification of tragedy
Peace – as crown of war is glory built upon misery
Terror – in a dead end finds its way out in the ecstasy of destruction
War the deeper scar of history
War the sanctification of tragedy
War the illusion of majesty
Why should we drink the poison before the remedy
Pride to die in combat – like all the other dead
All this to learn that - all nations’ blood is running red
Pride to die in combat – like all the other dead
All this to learn that - all nations’ blood is running red
War the deeper scar of history
War the sanctification of tragedy
War the illusion of majesty
Why should we drink the poison before the remedy
4. Antigod
Born in a world of superstition
To live a life of submission
Raped by dogma forced into the mind
I’ve looked somewhere else for what was already mine
I am the antidote to the syndrome of God
I am the Antigod, the only hope that you got
I am the Antigod
Religion is a road above one’s head,
Hiding the light and obscuring the way
Faith is alive when reason is dead,
Forget to live while waiting for “The day”
I am the antidote to the syndrome of God
I am the Antigod, the only hope that you got
Chose investigation over resignation
And I will always be by your side
Morphing the truth into convenient lies
Feeding a fraud impossible to size
Grafting rules on common sense
Turning freedom into an offense
I am the antidote to the syndrome of God
I am the Antigod, the only hope that you got
I am the Antigod
I am the antidote
I am the Antigod
Deum De Deo, I am God!
5. For A Thousand Years
All that we shared, wasn’t a lie
We’ll never have to say goodbye
The taste of eternity
Is wired to our memory
Reaching the end of a broken line – while the road is still fine
Longing to stay a little longer – when our time is over
Hey !
Forever at human scale is still not immortality
Breaking doors of heaven and hell and living for a thousand years
Yeah, living for a thousand years
No what we shared wasn’t a lie
My love for you will never die
Dreaming away the unbearable – landing before the crash
When the word turns black and purple – memory is hard cash
Hey !
Forever at human scale is still not immortality
Breaking doors of heaven and hell and living for a thousand years
Suddenly the wind is blowing, fresh air is coming and we’re moving away
Our grief’s balanced with our joy, we sow on new soil, today is a new day
Are you with me?
Hey !
Forever at human scale is still not immortality
Breaking doors of heaven and hell and living for a thousand years
Yeah, living for a thousand years
6. The Shadow Of The Sword
Listen!
This is a true story, based on reality
A mass of frenzy, a poison sold as remedy
They tell you knowledge is a curse but ignorance ain’t bliss
They tell you love one another while waging war for peace
Delusion, fraud and deception
The foundation of religion
Is it that holy to decide to be nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death, mixing lies with hope and living in the shadow of the
sword
Middle age in the 21st century
Struggling to survive modernity
Trapped in a time of obscurantism
Where minds rely on archaism
Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism
Is it that holy to decide to be nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death, mixing lies with hope and living in the shadow of the
sword
Is it that holy, tell me, to decide to be nothing more than a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death, mixing lies with hope and living in the shadow of the
sword
Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism
Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism
Is it that holy to decide to be nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death, mixing lies with hope and living in the shadow of the
sword
7. In The Deep
Call me Samaël
Billion years ago
I was already there
Waiting to exist
Call me Samaël
Billion years ago
When dream took a shape
To shape other dreams
I was already there waiting to exist
At the dawn of my time, the morning of my life
When nothing stood between me and infinity
Distractions were so few and wonders were legion
Now how much of that past reflects on tomorrow
Every noise, amplified
Every thought, deconstructed
Here machines rule supreme
You got the goal now get the scheme
Chasing above and hunting below
At the dawn of my time, the morning of my life
When nothing stood between me and infinity
Distractions were so few and wonders were legion
Now how much of that past reflects on tomorrow
Fishing in the deep, plunging into the dark
Waking from my sleep, looking for a spark
At the dawn of my time, the morning of my life
When nothing stood between me and infinity
Distractions were so few and wonders were legion
Now how much of that past reflects on tomorrow
8. Mother Night
Make the most of every day sweet or sour
Enjoy the time that you got every minute every hour
Give all that you can give for there’s no end in sight
Leave all that you want to leave in the embrace of mother night
Sometime the pain is so heavy it makes it hard to breathe
Feels like it’ll never stop but something new is ‘bout to begin
Make the most of every day sweet or sour
Enjoy the time that you got every minute every hour
Give all that you can give for there’s no end in sight
Leave all that you want to leave in the embrace of mother night
Sometime the pain is so heavy it makes it hard to breathe
Feels like it’ll never stop but something new is ‘bout to begin
Don’t fall asleep over your responsibilities
Stay awake don’t turn away from life's duties
Sadness is happiness born dead
Sorrow is an unacknowledged joy
Tick-tock, wake up this time is what you got
Tap the beginning that you foresee
Tick-tock, wake up time to connect the dots
What you’re learning will set you free
Make the most of every day sweet or sour
Enjoy the time that you got every minute every hour
Give all that you can give for there’s no end in sight
Leave all that you want to leave in the embrace of mother night
9. Pagan Trance
Hey!
They’re on their way to a higher place
Lightly dressed with undisputed grace
Statues of flesh animated with light
They tend to show what they want to hide
They caress the air with every move they make
Graceful and reverent they give, they don’t fake
They’re like poems to the splendour of creation
Barefoot they go in charming procession
Their legs, their hips, their breasts, their necks
The sun, the air, the water and earth
Their arms, their hands, their hair, their backs
The sun, the air, the water and earth
With flowers in their hair like a crown of noon
They’re offering their all to the sun, to the moon
One follows the other while the first follow the last
They’re living the moment with no future or past
Their legs, their hips, their breasts, their necks
The sun, the air, the water and earth
Their arms, their hands, their hair, their backs
The sun, the air, the water and earth [x2]
While rooted in the ground they’re floating in the air
Enigmatic and sensual, they let nature have her share
They are here but they don’t belong
Talking in riddles without moving their lips
They’re forming a chain with ever open links
Hey!
Their legs, their hips, their breasts, their necks
The sun, the air, the water and earth
Their arms, their hands, their hair, their backs
The sun, the air, the water and earth
The sun, the air, the water and earth
10. In Gold We Trust
When money rules the game it diminishes life
It narrows perspective to a single line
If it is too much it is not enough
Whatever we earn, for more you still yearn
We’re looking for satisfaction
Our world is stuffed with ambition
Everything we do, is done in excess
We’re junkies addicted to success
All our emotions are rationalized
We’re careful on what we capitalize
Rare rocks and precious metal
Our power grows, it’s natural
If faith has a use, it’s to let us believe
Righteousness is on our side
We got nothing to hide
Of our goal, of our lust
In Gold we trust
We’re looking for satisfaction
Our world is stuffed with ambition
Everything we do, is done in excess
We’re junkies addicted to success
If faith has a use, it’s to let us believe
Righteousness is on our side
We got nothing to hide
Of our goal, of our lust
In Gold we trust
Money, prosperity
Wealth has authority
11. Soul Invictus
All that you’ve never seen now you can feel
All that has yet never been now is for real
What was behind is now right in front of me
I’m looking further than my eyes can see
All that you’ve never seen now you can feel
All that has yet never been now is for real
Where the will is strong there’ll always be a way
The dream goes on forever and a day
Soul invictus – soul invictus
The Universe’s pulsing right under my skin
I’m standing higher where the air is thin
No longer holding in we let it out
No more silent screams now we can shout
Where the will is strong there’ll always be a way
The dream goes on forever and a day
Soul invictus – soul invictus
What was behind is now right in front of me
But I’m looking further than my eyes can see
Souls is growing - stretching endlessly
Now I’m moving into Infinity
12. The Truth Is Marching On
Break!
Dream of domination is an invisible hand
Purpose on its own leading to inevitable end
Victors are the ones who shape reality
Past of mystery for future of prophecy
Break, break the chain!
The truth is marching on, it blows the lies away
The truth is marching on, and marching all the way
Once you zoom in, discrepancies stretch out
Unverifiable certitude should always arise doubt
A lie needs believers to be sustained
As power needs slaves to be maintained
Break, break the chain!
The truth is marching on, it blows the lies away
The truth is marching on, and marching all the way
The truth is marching on, it blows the lies away
The truth is marching on, and marching all the way
Inconsistencies believed on a false assumption
Breed affirmations repugnant to comprehension
Questions and wonders make one uneasy
Denial of our instinct hijacks our integrity
Break!
Break!
The truth is marching on, it blows the lies away
The truth is marching on, and marching all the way
The truth is marching on, it blows the lies away
The truth is marching on, and marching all the way
