Mastiphal Parvzya 1. Intro [Instrumental] 2. The Wall Of Phantom [music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros] The moon panted above me Like cadaverous moaning Wet whips flagllated me My blood was throbbing maddeningly Scorn killing clouds Their faces are fading Their forever is dying Behold the head of madness One eye is open The other is still asleep One eye looking at us above The other in its anxious slumber The heart beats with the same rhythm Everything's the same but time Spring water dreams of the gutter Among the storms Among the element's confusion The eye is opening the wall of phantoms No passage to get through The mesmeric s?ance is still going on I'm closing my tired eyes 3. Under The Sign Of The Morning Star [music by Oppressor, lyrics by Flauros] The great world of human inspirations Was fading away Springs of creation have all run dry In silence the beauty's decayed Whole generations of men have marched Into the blackened abyss of oblivion And roamed in the numb nights of chaos Remaining deaf to their desperate cries Now I can see you lead the cortege When the chalice of misery breaks You cannot cover shameful secrets Hidden so deep inside of you They took of the gold crown you wore With all your weakness brought to the light The eye which sees all things as they are Will scorn your pathetic power Like a snake, you slither Into the nocturnal sky Like a snake, you wind Around like grapevine Like a snake, you bite Full of deadly poison Like a snake, you creep Spitting venom 4. May He Rot In Hell [music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros] Night claws right into your soul's pane Blackened view is spilled from silver moonlight As it penetrates your mind and conscience Stirring mud within you with its raven's beak Red rust Skies afire Dreams of blood and ire Red rust Sky's in flames May he rot in hell Cold transparent doll comes knocking Every night at empty window of your room Let it in and let it lie close to your heart Keep it warm with fever burning in your chest You, little offspring; you, little devils All shall spring to life from underneath my skin Venomous and erring crossbreed My thin scar is still aflame, there is no rest 5. Sovereign's Return [music by Cymeris, lyrics by Flauros] All things benign have gone Inviting all sorts of plagues The lofty shadows of heroes have vanished Glorious memories swallowed by darkness No one could bury him Beneath the ground In vain they cry: he cried! He endured in his half rotten grave Sovereign's return Those who still throw clods on his coffin Do not know he is immortal Ordered to harden in battle or die He survived the mists of doubts And the thunder of despair The bray of his battle horn still carries on From dark caves he came to the light Spewing out refreshing flame His ravenous will of fire remains And the world will taste it again 6. Man Strikes God Falls [music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros] Heavy clouds borne by the wind Crashing into the cliffs Rumbling in the blackened forest Hurling its thunders down canyons Thunder lights up the twilight of gloom The tempest it rages in valleys Twilight's sparkle flickers uncertain Nighttime mist coils up like smoke Angels they bind their wings all torn Then hurl themselves into gorges Shrouded in their cloaks of clouds Crying they melt in the fog The night it spreads thick darkness around Only the torches now flicker Whispers splinter the unsteady silence The chase has begun, the hunt is on The din of splitting rocks rings so hollow Waves of air rustle mysteriously Murmurs and hisses fill up the night Long drawn out thunder like a battlesign Ascending onto the trail of stars To lift the veil clouding our sight Forget the collar and rise! Subject to laws he reaches for freedom Man strikes, god falls 7. Nihil Esse [music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros] Look at the eye all swollen with blood Staining the cheeks with redness Cutting my head they saw with surprise A minor god as he fell out Lost in black Cocooned in mold I suffocate The stench of my memories chokes me Lips indifferent to deadening peace Oblivion determines rebirth In my own thoughts I cannot be safe My ignorance Is so unsettling Someone else knows me He's watching me now Funerals march in the streets of grief Processions lit up by the dead Their lips are moving but they are mute Lost in the cries of mourning Memory breaks the spell of loneliness Unmoving eye now is drowned Never expecting reality Where are you leading me, temple of old 8. Chosen Obituaries [music by Oppressor, lyrics by Flauros] Dead souls march through vast lands Sleepless graves wheeze hollow Candlestick of a chilly day Souls hanged high on treetops Not an inch of living soil Blackened and unlit Bloody night, it blinds all The heavens veiled from the dead Circling above the clouds The shadowed eye silenced vain voices Enclosed you will be in fear Join me or draw your last breath With deadly gesture I curse you I smash your tombstone with iron Nothingness swallows your soul Your ashes I scatter with laughter Their shadows are fragile like straw So thin they get through a door crack But they will grow and splinter my thoughts Rising from the burning ground 9. Parvzya [music by Oppressor, lyrics by Flauros] The pain fell asleep at last Tired of piercing screams Tears are falling unnoticed Snakes coiling up in my heart Suffering never ends Life's bitterness swells within Fast transgressions they weigh me down All turns from bad to worse The fire is now ablaze Set by a human hand Flame everlasting to scorch the womb My breathing's all heavy with grief As I look at the world forsaken Empty sorrow and helpless cries Long gone days and glorious past 10. Triumph Of Destruction [music by Daamr, lyrics by Flauros] By a deadly silent night For my sword I reached To the monarchs then I said Who will spill more blood? My torch awakens the world Cities collapse in fire My sketches all done in blood Death kisses the enemy falling Screams of annihilation Lament, chaos and carnage Red dawn spread like a swarm of locusts Ranks of death all swollen with corpses My triumph is now complete Kneel at my throne of gore The masterpiece of destruction Attack, my minions, or perish Flauros / Vocals Daamr / Guitars, Bass Cymeris / Guitars Opressor / Bass, Guitars Senator / Drums Recorded by Jaroslaw Toifl at Maq Studio and Haunted House Studio (September 2010) Mixed and Mastered by Sverker Widgren at Necromorbus Studio/Stockholm (Januray-February 2011) All Intros by Axis Mundi Actum
