Gods of Mud

Kneel down before the gods of mud
You, silly son of light
They see beyond your heart - your dark desires
I see gold
I see heaven
I see jade
My obsession
Obey the mighty gods of mud
Release the fire in you
The animal within is taking over
I see gold
I see heaven
I see jade
My obsession
Wake up in the dark in your presence
And walk down the woods your procession
- Thee I Invoke
The Terrible and Invisible
Who Dwellest in the Void Place
Of the Spirit,
Hear me,
The Mighty and Bornless One,
For "The Heart Girt With A serpent"
Is my name -
I see gold
I see heaven
I see jade
My obsession

Spectre
04:52
|

I know you well
Of that I'm sure
For all your sins I've sinned before
I know your rituals of pain
I am the fool you want to blame
You pushed me to the edge
I walk in desolation
Now I'm a spectre
(to you)
Your knife went in too deep once more
My blood spreads around the floor
And yet you want me on my knees
Begging for mercy like a thief
You've gone too far enough
Too much humilliations
Now I'm a spectre
(to you)
In the evil wind
In your darkest hour
In your deepest fear
In your prayer now
I'm weaving my revenge
Weaving my revenge
Weaving my revenge
Now I'm a spectre
(to you)

Faith
04:42
|
|||
Burying my faith
I saw you bleeding
Now I have to face
My rotten feelings
You gave me madness
One last reason to cry
I should escape now
I have no further doubts
But I will burn right here
In this fire with you
Yes I will stay right here
In this winterless cold
I've killed my faith
I heard it screaming
I've lived in a cage
Of lies and secrets
You made me weaker
You made me lose my way
I see through the mirror
I do not recognize myself
So I will burn right here
In this fire with you
Yes I will stay right here
In this winterless cold

The circle is complete
The pictures burning
The mesmerizing smoke dances to the sky
The elements in line
The words were spoken
The seal of invocation melts to the fire
Close your eyes
Embrace the darkness
And let me be your guide
Take my hand and walk beside me
Come join the ritual
Hear my voice
Just like a thunder
The blood residuals staining all
- Stains it all -
The threshold pouring light
The spirits howling
The voices of the past come alive
The air is damp and cold
The heaven falling
The line grows thin between death and life
Close your eyes
Embrace the darkness
And let me be your guide
Take my hand and walk beside me
Come join the ritual
Hear my voice
Just like a thunder
The blood residuals staining all
- Stains it all -
"Aldinack Amkar Sun"
"Aldinack Amkar Sun"
For I am the one
The darkness
I command
"Aldinack Amkar Sun"

And every morning like a reptile
The sun crawls quietly inside
An empty room locked from the outside
Poems and writings on the wall
Amulet...
He gave his amulet away
Without an amulet all is lost
His melting face against the window
The trees waving with the wind
And in the sky a silent warning
A darkness no one else can see
Amulet...
He gave his amulet away
Without an amulet all is lost
Tired eyes
Dying flowers
Pills and anesthesia
Falling down
Flying higher
Everything is blury now
Empty will
Shattered letters
Shivers running down the spine
He's the shadow of himself
Just another nameless man
And in the night a deadly silence
A pain to deep - A cold inside
The crying of the lonely old men
One more nightmare comes alive
Amulet...
He gave his amulet away
Without an amulet all is lost
Amulet...
He gave it to someone away
A heart shaped amulet
It was everything he had
Tired eyes
Dying flowers
Pills and anesthesia
Falling down
Flying higher
Everything is blury now
Empty will
Shattered letters
Shivers running down the spine
He's the shadow of himself
Just another nameless man

Sarah
06:45
|
|||
Long nights wither in her eyes
Painful whispers so cold
Dreams and hopes are left behind
And the spell takes hold
Bury the laments of her past
Bloodstained visions so clear
Burning bonfires in her sight
Yet the devil is near
Love lies in ashes forever
The dead should be quiet, oh Sarah!
Who dares to disrupt your heaven
The dead should stay still, darling Sarah!
Roaming outside under the rain
The wind caress her face
Shed a cold tear once again
Upon a cold empty grave
Love lies in ashes forever
The dead should be quiet, oh Sarah!
Who dares to disrupt your heaven
The dead should stay still, darling Sarah!

Even angels
Everything you know
Everything you wont let go

Venus

I am trapped in a timeless space
In a cage of skin and whispers
So entranced by your beautyness
And the warm touch of your fingers
Into the foldings of the flesh
Fill me up with your poison now
As it drips from your honey bosoms
In delight of your savage lips
My desire is turning to stone
Into the foldings of the flesh
I surrender to your embrace
I'm a slave, a thirsty creature
And the kiss burning inside you
Like a blade - deeper and deeper
Into the foldings of the flesh

All this darkness that embrace us now
Extends beyond anything your eyes can see
Into melancholic waves I drown
But I still stand
Probably I shouldn't stay
In our world
In our world
In our own world
In the mystic light of haunted moons
I found my place
I've heard Aiwass calling my name
For my visions they were all revealed
And here I am
Cutting through the silent wave
In our world
In our world
In our own world
In our world
In a perfect world
In our world
In the darkest world

Wicked goddess
My hungry beast
I'm praying for
Your deadly Kiss
The wrong decision I always make
As every path leads into your gardens
I'm prisoner but even if I could
I wouldn't escape at all
In the sun
And in the night time
Dancing snake
So beautiful
In the heat
Into the fire
Dancing snake
You take it all
My offering
A sacrifice
Of human flesh
And burning skies
Release the storm from within your eyes
Every thought drives me into madness
Just pent me up inside you
In your sweet heresy
In the sun
And in the night time
Dancing snake
So beautiful
In the heat
Into the fire
Dancing snake
You take it all

The Great Attractor
08:32
|
|||
On a distant place in space
The secrets of our world are all reduced to shades
And meaningless
All the spirits of the night
The old flickering stars
The laments of the earth
The Great Attractor calls
All the glory - All the pride
The rituals of blood
Your nightmares and your dreams they fade to black
All that suffering is just a momentary lapse
Of madness in our minds
The Great Attractor calls
All the wisdom fades away
There is no other way
No prayer can prevent the final fall
All the forces of the sea
The power of the wind
The earth surrenders down
The Great Attractor calls
On this fatal vortex edge the time bends like a wave
The light cannot escape from its gravity
Huge and hunger like a God
But hidden in the dark and waiting patiently
The Great Attractor Calls
