1.
Enchanted, beneath the darkening sky shattered, I am the fallen Rivers and streams of how many tears a dismal call from the void my eyes drown in the black A sacred doom Wind rips at the surface the forest breathes in the night a path to worlds below chambers of silent dreams Shades of cold indifference nocturnal trancendence the shadows dance in starlight oceans of delerium A mirror of destruction take me into the moonlight above with twilight eyes a spectre of light can you feel it's presence the force of atmosphere An evil essence cursed spirits cleansed of cold intuition enthroned in lustrous violet what things appear in the dark beneath the bleak skyline
2.
The truth is hidden in the water in the drowning of innocence ripped from mortality enraptured by a frozen heart extinction of stars a blaze in the sky A constellation of loss beyond the black veil through the darkness of life gleams glimpses of departure and vast dimensions Winds of darkness The midnight passage Into oblivion Faded secrets concealed by the realm of time Thoughts of torment as darkness swept the face of the earth beneath veiled chambers a supreme sacrifice the will to grow fades and withers this is my fate deep within the core living memories to seek the dawn of light My spirit awaiting everlasting sleep to find peace beneath the depths the illusive wings of death a cursed obsession through shattered eyes the becoming of madness
3.
I desire the silence you hold these sacred gifts I accept into my soul Before an altar of blood ancient forces of nature rule again My worthless self I sacrifice a fateful bond of truth obscured, cavernous dreams of the abyss In the shelter of darkness unseen esoteric powers warp the light through trees The oncoming storm an arrival into twilight a shadow of lost selves sorrow is my home the true essence of pain I hear the mourning of the forests spare me from the agony as the shadow falls Disfigured landscapes a final call to the void Vast dimensions faded secrets a cosmic revelation
4.
We belong to the night shadows of death where cold silence dwells unconscious fading light born into grace now blood paints my dreams A cascade of fallen leaves cryptic signs from gods of old Imprisoned wrath and devastation a prophecy of desolate bliss obscured and shining Forever mysterious a forlorn sacred art a starlight ceremony the moon bereft of light Deathlike silence, pervading rise in a unholy blessing upon burial grounds an unholy craft true shades of darkness transcendent through fields of hallowed tombs across the midnight sky with eyes like serpents, gleaming Unbound under the spelling moon arise from the abyss hear distant echoes calling screams fill the atmosphere
5.
A mirror of pale skin an aura of pain a river runs silently dark visions of what life used to be as I drift in haunted misery follow the streams of blood a dark evil space agonies, memories, devouring I require deep solace as the night is redeemed the wind whispers my name nocturnal enchantments An invoking ceremony twilight abstraction cold emptiness enraptures my heart silence and shadows I cast a spell upon raging flames All life is abandoned into the embrace of death streams of vast miseries spirits waiting to be set free a cosmic symphony drift through the halls of wondering as I cross dimensions the axis of fate the only light through dark corridors a flame of secrecy a life left in darkness a yearning force of will Imprisoned in anxious pits of shadow a midnight aura a phantom fire
6.
Our spirits shall mourn the pale formless agony I cross the blue bridge of light as the shadow falls An entrance into universes faint nocturnal screams into the cold beyond a star shines in silver Drifting in the ether of death an altar of sacrifice I call upon the night take and give me life beyond the shores a heart left forlorn the hour of blackness a paragon of destruction My whispers are thunder disembodied A cosmic revelation feel the burning flames inside with thorns piercing at the edge an art of suffering An entrance into fantasies a black fortress of solitude engraved in memory a ritual of death whirlwinds of flame consuming the ravaging of mind wings to be reborn
7.
Midnight shadows drifting summoned by the woods a shudder of fear what dwells beyond the pale phantom souls dance upon unholy ground beneath the red moon Great stone chambers in a temple of decay mysterious invocations a blackened rite suffer in pain Darkness above to drift in the cold cascading voices Sculptures of stone eternal wastelands enthralled in a cosmic sea an epic dream transcended in astral energy Thunderous echoes a plague of destruction dark seasons of horror harnessed powerful rage Storms of terror diabolical flames the eye of illusion boundaries of light devoured a point of no return an ocean of sleep an abysmal tainted sky burning with desire
