The cold voice of the tempest, It makes me run away There's something bittersweet And true in the air this day At long last I can whirl round With fallen xanthic leaves Unite with birds of passage and fly above the trees (The) stories that must flash out With a pulsing aorta of (the) sky And then must turn to ashes I kiss them all goodbye The rotten lips taste divine, Can't explain to you why The last pain pierces my heart I laugh and deeply cry And stunning is the black-eyed thicket And the swamped grass, Not a human, not a god yet, Come, veni foras! And stunning is the black-eyed thicket And the swamped grass, Not a human, not a god, Mother, veni foras…

Edenbeast 04:01
Martyr, martyr with a lambent halo, Are there shadows in heaven's garden? The most deviant, Perfect creation Of our thoughts In the Universe The tauricornous behind the headboard Whispers bloodcurdling stories My beast friend, Scratch me to bleed Dig out (me) An' drag me out Beast within, come out and show your true aspect, Edenbeast The apple-tree was purified, The snake was expelled, but you are still here Hang me from branches, Between these atrous leaves This is the best Deodate for your shrine! An angel with a flaming sword exiles them And we go to the dusky side Our yearning eyes Penetrate the night

Necromance 03:49
Here I came not from the sloughs But from your stray soul! Ingredients: thorn apple, verbena, rosemary, Dragon's blood, mandrake and foxglove O darken mirrors, guide me through the labyrinth Show me The One I detest! I appeared to cover you, Torment all night long This is my craving! Implore help from heaven to enliven thy sin, Tear my strings, drink my tears. Smiling, I continue to burn you And with the wind I'll kantikoy on thy bones I'm powerless inside the oneiric Fall asleep by drowning in my own bed But I always break the chains of diablerie End the necromance, leave me be, This is my will, so shall it be For darkness thou art, and unto darkness shalt thou return I'll lick your neck To reopen those two wounds Our first kiss was thrilling, the second one poisoned me and forever stigmatized my heart Owl light, modena water, overthrow the beast Into the depths of Sheol I'm powerless inside the oneiric Fall asleep by drowning in my own bed End the necromance, leave me be This is my will so shall it be

As aeons pass by Its wisdom slowly grows, As nights come in She fears and blames herself… The moon emerged from behind clouds Catch me in your moon web, Lead me above your land, Crown me with the welkin The best friend's hungry grin, Cadaverous marsh child… ...My fantasies make me wild! The poet-boy vows to make her dance again His words are hallowed by an amaranth For the moon emerged from behind clouds Watch its amber eye, Behold its mantic light The telarian-Queen from the tower longs for blood I trembled before my own imagination Black owls silently soar This blooming twilight - my magic delight Blind knight and princess found Each other in the dark forest When the phantasm puts its hand on my shoulder, Inside me the dream is born The brumal and Stellate stray child… …My fantasies make me wild! For the moon emerged from behind clouds Watch its amber eye, Behold its mantic light

Saturnia 04:50
The sad, saturnine bride And a starless, hollow night This sardonic smile of the moon like a gibe for my ruth Look at me, what do you see? There's no religion for me I don't belong nor to this World, nor the afterlife Within his nightpiece I finally found rest My immortal Master is all I request God, grant me death tо appreciate my life and grant me repentance to taste delight Be careful, don't break my thin Stone-cold, porcelain skin See the abyss in my eyes like a sleep of paradise Leave your weary shell You don't know… So go to hell! Love displaces everything, Redeems any sin … O, this way will be starrified Sable steeds, argent light… Within his nightpiece I finally found rest My immortal Master is all I request God, grant me death tо appreciate my life and grant me repentance to taste delight

I'm a breath of hazy dells, And my name is violence Toxemia inflames me As midnight draws near, Don't call me Oh don't call me It was a windy blue even, Under the leafless tree they met She kissed the man's brow and laced Her slight arms around His waist «Now monsters fierce and fell In this shady forest dwell On human blood and flesh they feed, Wolfish form assume at need So it's too dangerous to meet here!» I prowl beneath the whispering clouds Hatred, desperation, loneliness, Excitement, fear and a challenge See, the sun has sunk from sight, Left the world to a hungry night The beast that you fear is here Share the same blackness with me The Blackness we prowl

Mossy velvet of the marble grave is my delight I don't believe that she is dead (she's waiting for the night) I know she returned to the woods To join her wolfish friends In the ivy grove I see her face, Those snow-white hands… Her naked body's robed in ice web, Spangled with blood, Blessed by The Necronomicon She sold her scarlet heart Frostwork, it slowly writes her name She's an infinite nightmare The midnight romance of witches Is seen through gossamer… At the crossroads of twilight, the love is coffined, truth is striding upon fields of endless blight These arrows have sunk deep inside Reminding the way he used to lay with me, His bride... To the forest heart, To the altar of last wish That whitest trampled lily Is buried beyond you Where were you when it took my hand, when he ordered me to stand, stuffed me with sand?! And now, when all the angels die Do you have something to remember me by? From desires to freedom Come to me my worthless slave, Not to be my cross, But to feed my erotic Aditum nocendi perfido praestat fides Yield to temptation, Yield to your weird dreams You know we can Fall aye The kiss hides a bite, Caress covers embrace of death Within your feelings You doomed yourself From the forest's heart, Away from the succub's feast …Dew on this gossamer is only dew

Crystal strings of a stream Flow under the moon's smile Forward an' heavenward, Far away Will-o'-the-wisp knows its way, It levitates through sleepy, pacificatory pall And she weeps bitter tears at a crucifix on a wall For she does not know It won't evanesce In this aerial last quest Try to overcome your pain, You know, my God comes through my deepest wounds My path is unknown but no matter where I go, I'll be with you Crystal strings of a stream Flow under the moon's smile Forward and heavenward, We'll meet one day Your eyes are gazing upon mine, When you are out of sight My fingertips are touching the line; Separating night My time has come! Your wetless mouth keeps on begging for more, But my heart's left this clammy place And can return no more
