The Somberlain Music: Nödtveidt Lyrics: Nödtveidt I fell deeper and deeper as light now was gone I could feel the dark embrace my soul Agony was no more, and so was pain At this point of solitude I knew I was there There where I belong Thus far a long journey through my souls infinity It has been a journey far beyond mortality I have found what I wanted, tranquillity I'll thrive on evil, eternally I flew over crystal ground My existence, numb Over orchards of grievance, sorrow and tears This beautiful silence calls me now Black fog devours me but I can see it all The monument of my past, this land of seven horizons before my eyes I reach the land of spiritual rest Its the dawn of descending - I am the Somberlain down to evil divine domain Lord of infernal, gather my strength Carry me through the gates Its the dawn of descending - I am the Somberlain down to evil divine domain For Im eternal night - Im the Somberlain Precede my evil divine domain Crimson Towers Music: John Zwetsloot A Land Forlorn Music: Nödtveidt/Palmdahl Lyrics: Nödtveidt The mountains below we reached by our will The flames of our swords are burning still Temptated by the night to spread hate and fear Were the revenge the blackest, Their souls is our prey Storms of evil, thunder and might Their moons in our eyes, a guiding sight Chorus: Were in the march of profanity The darkest breed, again well rise forth against the flocks of the weak Well approach a land forlorn Our hordes arrived / Oh hordes of white, watch us take your lives As false youll fall, falseness disappear (The Land) where eyes are blind we have found Battle sign under the shape of mine Darkest souls now set free We rose again, damnations reign Watch me absorb your thoughts See me ruin your halls of light Weltering in your sadness for infinity Chorus: Were the march of profanity Your tragedy, falmes will rise forth against the flocks of the weak No return, A land forlorn Heaven's Damnation Music: Nödtveidt/Zwetsloot Lyrics: Nödtveidt Striking over oceans of blood Over kingdoms in fears Where the night bred its cold dark the winter drew near Chorus: Watch the sky, the crimson tears of heaven The darkened mist of burning hate Ashes of the past, Years that fell into oblivion Visions so dim they had, memories of a time yet to come Chorus: Watch the sky, the crimson tears of heaven As damnation reaches the hidden land Through the forest of profanity The sound of cries Brought forth by the night sky Invoked by their own tongues, Yes theyre truly awake now The souls that were sleeping, under the tree of death And i laugh as i burn down the pearly gates of light And forever Ill be within the arms of abomination Embracement of eternal dark With the ancient souls at the sides Wasteland bathed in evil... are one with the blackened sky Chorus: Watch the sky, the crimson tears of heaven fade to black and welcome the night of all nights Frozen Music: Nödtveidt Lyrics: Nödtveidt Far beyond all light Within the black and the coldest breeze Caressed by the dark, I had my sleep Awakened by the moon Nocturnal life, my powers to be Keeping myself alive by sucking your mortals blood... Chorus: Frozen winds of immortality as I drown in obscurity Still feeling the taste of blood... It makes me so strong... I spread my wings... Into soul winter I fly... Tears in my eyes turns into fire as where I belong... The cold within, it chills my skin, my heart and soul... In ecstacy I shred myself to release whats held within In solitude Im having my pride I, Transylvanian son... Chorus: Frozen winds of immortality as I drown in obscurity I fall deep into whats for me unseen Eternal flames lick my face In purgatory Im all within But Im forever bound to my frozen soul... Into Infinite Obscurity Music: Zwetsloot In The Cold Winds Of Nowhere Music: Nödtveidt/Zwetsloot Lyrics: Nödtveidt Search for my subconscious Lead me into myself A need to discover the dark A will to enter these gates Oh, This temptation to end this empty life In my dreams I saw my real side A journey through forever my visions oh so bright Watching eternity open as I turn out lifes light Oh, this temptation to leave this earthly shell Deep inside, the toll of deaths bell In the cold winds of nowhere With a sigh I pass away Falling, into harmonic sleep Then Ill find my prophecies wasnt lies Falling, into the abyssI come... I...I am dying... Death...Does heal me...

Mistress Of The Bleeding Sorrow Music: Nödtveidt/Zwetsloot Lyrics: Nödtveidt So dark...Im facing my destiny As far as pleasure led my disciple was me For ages I have been searching for my bride Since she passed away grief became my guide Chorus: As darkness falls above - It will be there for centuries My mistress of sorrow she will hear my call I sort of entered the other side... when those words were called up to the sky Chorus: As darkness falls above - It will be there for centuries Mistress of sorrow, please hear my call As darkness falls above - It will be there for centuries No mistress of sorrow ever heard my call (dedicated to life) Feathers Fell Music: Zwetsloot
