Equinox Ov The Gods Fruits and Flowers of the Spectral Garden 1. Intro: The Gathering [Instrumental] 2. The Ogre Lord Spawned by frost wastelands Out of ice and snow and shadows born The legions that now stand ready The fight and die for the Ogre Lord The hordes of darkness are gathered Their songs of war are heard afar The drums of doom are pounding Sacrifice to please the gods of war and wrath Spill the entrails Read the signs The gods are pleased With the sacrifice Fires in the horizon Black smoke fills the moonlit sky Pounding, pounding thunder hooves Like beasts out of hell these demons ride Tonight Under the fullmoon they gladly die For the Ogre Lord 3. The Golem See me walk... I'm a blasphemy Made not by god But the power of his name i live Look into my eyes Empty and hollow... What you see Is my unholy soul I am a result of necromantical arts A body of clay, a stone is my heart I am the Golem See my limbs Behold the scorn Of creation I don't want to be With heavy steps I stride the earth Towards my end I walk... 4. The Witches Rune Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd. Thrice and once the hedge-pig whined. Harpier cries 'Tis time, 'tis time. Round about the cauldron go; In the poison'd entrails throw. Toad, that under cold stone Days and night has thirty-one Swelter'd venom sleeping got, Boil thou first i' the charmed pot. double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bouble. Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron boil and bake; Eye of newt and toe of frog, Wool of bat and toungue of dog, Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bouble. Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf, Witches' mummy, maw and gulf Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark, Root of hemlock digg'd i' the dark Liver of blaspheming Jew, Call of goat, and slips of yew Silver'd in the moon's eclipse, Nose of Turk and Tartar's lips Finger of birth-strangled babe Ditch-deliver'd by a drab, Add thereto a tiger's chaudron, For the ingredients of our cauldron. Coll it with baboon's blood, Then the charm is firm and good. O well done! I commend your pains; And every one shall share i' the gains; And now about the cauldron sing, Live elves and fairies in a ring, Enchanting all that you put in. By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes. open,locks, Whoever knocks! 5. Thanatos I am ready I am waiting for you Come whenever it pleases you By my bed, a lock of my hair I have said farewell I won't despair I've heard your steps Outside the door What keeps you waiting? I was so sure Now it is time for me to go beyond Come now, with your torch Turn it upside down Dark and gloomy He comes to us Unexpected Thanatos He takes us to The underworld We're his sheep He is the herd Peace and silence He brings to us At the end of the life Thanatos He turns his torch Upside down And spreads his wings... Thanatos 6. Nightstalker The autumn leaves are gently dancing Upon the soil in which i lie My place of rest for the living hidden Far away from their prying eyes Summoned by the monn ascending Toward the surfice i slowly rise To once again stroll the path of darkness Crimson coloured it before me lies I won't brake the masquerade As i stalk my pray at night Death comes swift and silent my dear You won't feel the bite And when the morning finally comes Draind from blood you will be found A withered flower in an alleyway Under a shroud of frost, blaek and pale In my tomb, my haven dark I wait in dreamless sleep The day to pass, the dusk to come The time to leave my keep 7. I.M.A. Sprinkle eyes with grains of sand Follow me into my land Sleep now, child, close your eyes Take my hand and away we fly Here ends reality as you know it The night is here with a gift for you You've heard them whisper in the closet You've seen them lurk under your bed Here ends reality as you know that You're on your own on the dreampath now Grains of sand in your eyes and You float away, so far away Now i lay me down to sleep I pray the lord my soul to keep If i should die before i wake I pray the lord my soul to take You fade from reality No string attached In my arms No turning back You float away So far away 8. Stigmata Carry my soul on the Black wings of your ecstasy Lift it up high Towards the heavens in blasphemy I am what i am What i forever will be In the name of Jesus Christ Bleed for me! Stigmata Carry my soul on the Black wings of your ecstasy The death of an angel The sacrifice of purity Impaled by faith Desecrated is your sanctuary In Hoc Signo Bleed for me! Stigmata Behold the sign in my hand I hold the key to the wonderland The path is clear I'll lead the way Follow me and don't walk astray And if you really loves me true Can i ask one thing from you Show your love for all to see Will you bleed for me 9. Spectral Garden Rotten trees with twisted boughs Cast their shadows upon the ground Where dead birds feathers and autumn leaves Lie scattered by the midnight breeze In this garden of endless night Unseen by living, untouched by light In this garden by time forgotten Shadows prosper by death begotten In the fog with a reek of a thousand graves Faceless figures move grotesque and deranged A dance macabre through this cursed domain To a gruesome chant of sighs and wails In this limbo beyond all dreams Next to hell lies this sepulchral scene Where spectres grieve their death eternal A gloomy purgatory, dark, internal 10. Sombre Angel Silent wailing Over the morgue Silent whispering Please tell me more Access denied Death is still a dream I'm forced to remain In this hollow reality Silent laughters From the graves Silent temptations The dead are free Moving slowly, Towards the tombs Give me the password To enter this womb Sombre Angel-The key is in your hand Silent Angel-My entrance i demand Sombre Angel-Guardian of the final gate Sombre Angel-Let me fulfil my fate Sombre Angel With your black wings hold me Let darkness surround me Let me sleep Let me dream Silent tears In this sombre dreamland Silent awareness Will you now take my hand? 11. Where Roses Never Die Where roses never die Another life, another try Beyond the mountains, beyond the fields My fortune is waiting for me Another life... Another life... Another life, another try Where roses never die Another life, another try Beyond the forest of forever more... Beyond the seas without shores... Beyond the horizon of eternity My fortune is waiting for me So bright... So bright I enter the tunnel of light Where roses never die Another life... I'm gonna try... Sunshine fades and shadows fall But sweet remembrance outlasts all... 12. Outro: The Withering [Instrumental]
