DRACONIAN LYRICS The Closed Eyes Of Paradise (1999)
1. Prologue: Gracefallen [Instrumental] 2. Serenade Of Sorrow [Lucifer:] And the fires burn'd inside my eye's as ye fall's ascending like a moment o' joy. [Spirit of Night:] My thorns where sown in ye light o' Day, His thorns were spawned from the grasp o' God, and the winds: they blew... and the pain: it grew... until my winds, they blew no more. but holiness grew no more. I scream'd out into the dawn! [Grievance:] fro' the horizon she comes... I wonder if I could stay in His world, [Grievance:] 'cause sooner or later this pain must end! Pain must end! My life... it cries to be free, His life cries, but soon to be free... but legions of stars... the stars suffers with me! Thou art the star o' Venus... Oh Seraphim! [The Holy Spirit:] Thou must obey thy father, thy God! Bow down before his eyes... before his very eye's!.. [Lucifer:] My God... 'father'... hear us cry! Tell me why!.. Thou wilt die!!! [Astaroth:] Oh, Enslaver of Souls; Thou can not be our father! Oh, Avengeful God; Thou hast brought us agony! [Lucifer:] Into heav'n our sorrow... Sorrow ye beautiful moment o' tragedy... so beautiful... Falling fro' the lies of His 'perfect world'. They are falling... Takest us away, so far away... falling! here is nothing but pain. God is smiling... Farewell now as we enter our darkness... smiling! and we love her, the realization! Salvation comes but pain Behold our salvation! still grows. 3. Una Tertius [Instrumental] 4. Storm Of Damnation Shadows now fall over this tearstain'd strife. [Grievance:] My angel dark; I grieve these frozen years! To thy knees thou fallest, trembling in thy fear... A mournful gloom o'er these bleeding wounds. [Spirit of Night:] Angels sing for us... They cometh fro' below! [Lucifer:] I shall rise from His land of pain... Darkness I am and the autumn-rain! senses and hope leads astray... time will slowly fadeth away! [Astaroth:] Starfire burns, our black misanthropy... but the battle is lost, and His wrath upon us. [Grievance:] They are so alone... so sadly beautiful. My love will shine and give them hope! [Spirit of Night:] Fires burn for us... they cometh fro' below! [Lucifer:] Lord of Heav'n and thy masterplan, How could thou force us to worship man? Here at last we shall be free... In this darkness lies the key. In darkness lies my key! 5. Unfold Thine Hands [Lucifer:] How I wept in violent distress... how I cried in horried anguish! I know thou art hurting inside... I know of thine suppressed grief... I know... I know His light!.. [Deliah:] So unfold thine hands; Hosts of Seraphim and Archangels... host of Thrones and Cherubim... Lift thy knees from desolation and join nocturnal salvation! 6. The Morningstar "I've cried a river for you to swim to let you know the state we're in. I've dreamt a vision for you to see He's dreamt a vision for us to see, that the night is the only worthy key that night is the worthy key... (and the sound of silent cries is heard throughout the skies)". I have seen Heaven's sleep, We have felt Heaven's sleep, and I've watched the angels weep, our God hath made us weep they are slaves of fear and pain (that is ruled by a god insane). I know that the night will save us all O Lucifer, O Morningstar... as long we praise the dragons call. how we praise your ancient fall... Eternal seems the time, but the only true love will remain, and darkness shall rise up to Heaven to embrace the last, final prayer... Cause the grace of His word once spoken is now shattered by a promise broken. "So curse the tyrant, curse the light, for we are free here in the (endless) night. How free we could be in the night... So embrace the sorrow, kiss the tears... follow the wind to erase your fears, Follow the wind, follow the sign... for the fires burn bright, the fires of blue, and in the end it will burn in all of you." The war will come, apocalyptic storms of a tortured silence as God oppresses His last, final soul... and eternal seems the time, but the only true love will remain, and darkness shall rise up to Heaven to embrace the last, final prayer... So deny God's light and His words spoken... We regain Heaven and crush His skull wide open! "I've cried a river for you to swim, to let you know the state we're in. I've sent a message throughout the stars, He's sent a message throughout the stars, for His kingdom is full of scars. God's kingdom is full of scars. I am Lucifer, the angel of light He is Lucifer, O Lucifer... come with me and love the night! And legions of angels out from Heav'n fly: Oh, how they soar above the mountains high! I am the Light That Leads to Darkness! I am the Night Behold Pandemonium! Behold Pandemonium 7. The Gothic Embrace [Lucifer:] Oh angel o' my winter; grieveth for the pain o' sadness. A gothic embrace restores my love God took away... Ye romance o' forgotten times... in eras without the sun. An ocean o' tears I see... A nightfall o' dreams caresses me. [Deliah:] Thou wert, thou art, thou shalt fore'er be... Ye nightshade o' thy sorrow, stretching out for it's romantic rose in twilights beauty. In love with ye thousands o' nights... but weeping in silence... in ebony... for melancholy... forever! Jesus Christ walks the Earth... A pitiful shade of God. A cruel conspiracy for the sake of slavery, and He drags 'em down to the plague of humanity. [Lucifer:] I've killed my holiness... killed my emptiness! I'm fallen from God... fallen from guilt! I've abandoned the light, the light that blinded so long! Free from submission, but still under His spell. We're in pain... pain... pain! Sorrow turns to anguish... and I scream with hate at the tyrant above! [Deliah:] Hosanna de Profundis! Dethrone the tyrant... Take his throne, take the throne! [Astaroth:] Gothic moon... ablazeth the eventide so sonorous, ye solemn of a lovelorn gard'n o' crimson souls. All true beauty is sad... but lost within the clenched hands of God. [Lucifer:] I mourn that the night passes us by... Let there be an eternal night... eternal night! I mourn that the night passes us by! Let there be an eternal night... eternal night! ...I shall call upon the dragon...! 8. Cauda Draconis In Pandemonium the rebellious counsel aligned. As the great dragon arrives from beyond the magical abyss, the eleven-pointed star rises for the sake... Samael spreads his wings with enchantment. In front Lucifer stands... with burning passion and a stare in his sad, tortured eyes... As a gracefallen glare, uncertain of what lies ahead he turns to the daughter of Lilith. [Namaah:] For the sake of Apep - for the death of Ra... For the glory of thine future - for the death of God. Thou art the leader as night our saviour... On the edge of Heav'n His false love shall die! [Lucifer:] I want to look down when He's screaming, when the dark night opens to Kliffoth. Lilith sings with chanting echoes... I now enter to awake the red beast. [Samael:] The signs are calling to us all... Soon it's time to fight the battle! Tail now winding... Cauda Draconis! [Astaroth:] O fallen friends, we raise an eternal night. We shall never worship His humans... The dragon has lifted our minds... (from the start) Our soul has burn'd by dragonfire, purified from all holy matters. The flames are infernal... [Lucifer:] ...and Naamah shall guide us! Cauda Draconis! [Apep:] My fire shall burn to light thy way, Fallen stars, soon you'll storm the heav'ns, and the grace o' Lilith weakens the seed of Adam for the sake of Thee, Seraphim Rebellious! [Lucifer:] Oh, demon might... Oh, dragon soul. Moons once lost I see in darkness supreme. [Samael:] Oh, nocturnal queen, your evil eye's I have seen. I've awakened thee... in Lilith... Cauda Draconis! And myriads of angels... dragons and demons alike flew like a dream out from the lovelorn darklands... and with flaming swords they raged towards the vaults of Heaven. The second rebellion of Lucifer has begun... [Deliah:] Oh... listen to the music in the wind! 'Tis time... 'tis time! 9. The Armies Of Lucifer 10. Storming Heaven [Lucifer:] In glory and pride we rage and the dragon blisters... May endless tears of pain stain His beloved throne. We'll now dethroneth The Prophet and descend'th upon The Lamb and the reign of the holy tyrant! A darkness sweeps over the mighty skies and armies of wrath storms the holy gates. Flaming swords and spears raised in allegiance, as war glimmers in all corners of heaven. [Lucifer:] Raise thine swords, draconian hordes! This is the quest of eternal might... The war has begun, we are the lords... Let's now conquer the holy and the bright! Holy blood is raining from the infinite skies, and as the gate shatters Astaroth shouts in fury... [Astaroth:] Now, break the chain! They gather around Gods temple. One could feel His false glory was fading, and Heavens winds sounds despairing screams. Lucifer and Astaroth enters the opening... and there on the throne He sits... [Lucifer:] Finally we hath come to end thy reign... Millenniums o' torture ends... it ends with thine light! They rage towards the highest with burning eyes... thunder and lightning roars the Heav'ns... so black. Valiant the dark angel strikes in all his fury, and glory as God forever clos'd His eyes. [Lucifer:] Raise thine Swords, draconian hordes! This is the quest of eternal might... Our future's begun, we are the lords... We have conquered the holy and the bright! 11. Epilogue: A New Paradise God has fallen! The grace of Heav'n shows her true face and night fills up the lost empire of dreams. The dark angels embrace their new paradise... The everlasting night... Their kingdom forever!
DRACONIAN LYRICS Dark Oceans We Cry (2002 DEMO)
1. The Amaranth [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, Jan 2002 & March 2002] [Voice of Venus:] Thou art a flower, growing into his soul. You light his silent path of night... Thy winds they blow for his love and shadows... He's praising the beauty of thee... in a far away land. Thou art The Amaranth! [Remembering failed love:] Meeting... Connecting... Wishing... Hoping. Embracing... Kissing... Loving... Promising forever. Spending... Fading... Crying... Despising. Bleeding... Screaming... Suffering... Hating for love! Never I knew a heart could be so true... I dream to fly together forever with you! Our crimson souls would surrender their pain... Our tears would wash away the stains. It's so cold here... without you! Within her, the essence of Night... Within her, beloved Venus shines! [Voice of Venus :] Fading away, the last sunray... Fading away, the last sunray... Autumn hath come to thy heart, Autumn hath come to my heart, but maybe the rain brings her to you... but maybe the rain brings her to me... So true and so dark, her beautiful soul forlorn. So true and so dark, my flower! She is The Amaranth! Will she rise in me? Will I rise in her? [Voice of Venus:] Will she rise in him? Will he rise in her? 2. The Return to Solitude [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, Oct 2001 & Jan 2002] Oh, the world makes me return, return to solitude. Will hope ever come to the dark souls who wanders alone? Hear my silent prayer as I weep tonight! Dawn gets greyer, thou hast taken flight! Love abandons the soil, leaves a shade... It whispers 'goodbye' as we quietly fade... away! The brightness fades in my eyes but nightfall calms all my cries. Please, give us wings to fly! Without love our world dies... it dies! To drown in the cold mournful sea... So lost here in a world not meant to be... for me! The fading moon cries in vain, as the rising sun reflects my pain. We sail on seas of guilt and shame, but still we feed this love-lost flame... with hope! Hear my silent weeping as I pray tonight... Night grows colder, but I see a new light. Beautiful night, to thee we pray; Let the truest of love come our way! Beautiful night, to thee we pray; Let all the illusions just wither away! 3. Memento Mori [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson] Another day has passed by, but still we must not forget that night must fall! 4. Cthulhu Rising [Text inspired by Abdul Alhazred's prophecies, The Necronomicon or Al Azif. Written freely in apocalypic form by Anders Jacobsson, April 2001] His life's still breathing, dead but dreaming... and dark shines the stars out of time so lost. The ocean roars as the sky turns black, as their eyes are gleamings, gleaming in the darkness. The scorn of distorted faces enraptures the world, spiteful is the fire that burn in their souls. The Last Amorphous Blight of Nethermost Confusion, devour mortality! The Gate of the Silver Key knows the Outer Gods... from Yith ascended! The Watcher, The Keeper... Yog Sothoth! "The Old One's Were, The Old One's Are, and The Old One's Shall Be Again! So It Is Written, So It Shall Be Done!" The chaos is coming, the haunter of universe, and the blind creator bless the dragon who sleeps. Cthulhu awakens like a storm from beyond as the crimson opens, howling from a distant space. A string of light from his house in R'lyeh... Behold! Hear the thunder roar as he enters the world. His world... Hear Them whisper in Carcosa and Irem... in Kadath unknown to man. Nyarlathotep, Hastur... Tales of the Hyades sing. In every shade they wait! "From the dark stars They came and descended to primal Earth, and They shall rule where They once ruled. They Shall return...!" They clence the blood of divinity in the flames of evermore. In power They crown eternity in the lands of darkness lore. Cthulhu Rising Cthulhu Rising He's coming! Mighty Azathoth - the blind can see... R'lyeh arisen - Eternal dominion. The gate is open, the world is burning, and lost are the seals of the elder gods. Unlocked is the door of the silver key... out comes the powers of true monarchy. The Old Ones rises their old dynasty, as the flames devour foolish humanity! They die forever! "That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even Death may die." 5. Death, Come Near Me [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, 2001] By day I sleep, at night I weep! O Death, come near me! Be the one for me, the one, the one who stays. My rivers are frozen, and mischosen, and the shadows around me sickens my heart. O Death, come near me, and stay (by my side). Hear my silent cry! In sadness I'm veiled, to the cross I am nailed, and the pain around me freezes my world. My cold world... In life I've failed, for years I've wailed. Frozen in time... left behind... The rapture of grief is all to find... The rapture of grief is all! Behind the shadow of life the lost hopes are grieving. I seek the night and hope to find love... So I drown in the silence of life's short eternity. The tears fills the void in my heart astray... Embrace me now, delightful ease! Give me a world of wonderous peace! Calm the desperate scream in my heart! O Death, come near me, save me from this empty, cold world! O Life, you have killed me, so spare me from this caldron of misery! In life I cry, away I fly... Chosen to fall within these walls. The rapture of grief is all to find... The rapture of grief is all! Oh, shed a tear for the loss of innocence, for the forsaken spirits who aches... in us. Cry for the heart who surrenders to pain, for the solitude of those left behind! Behold the pain and sorrow of the world, dream of a place away from this nightmare. Give us love and unity, under the heart of night. O Death, come near us, and give us life! I this world of pain I am better of dead! Give me love, or give me... death! O Death, come near me! I have summoned you! 6. It Grieves My Heart [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, May 2001, and some parts taken from the poem “The Outsider” by H. P. Lovecraft, 1926] The world is falling so cold and grey. Shallow and empty life lingers on. It grieves my heart, it tears me apart... I hear this constant disharmony! Now I ride with the mocking and friendly ghouls on the night-wind, and play by day amongst the catacombs. I know that light is not for me. Lost in a dead world... With broken wings! Human reality feeds upon a whore! For what idols have these lowlifes bowed their heads to build up a shattered world? Kill the bitch on the cross... Scorn their sacred loss! And the sheeps are making love to the madness of the flow! Is this all they know...? The madness of the flow will take the final blow, as the sun goes down over mankind's tomb in the universal graveyard of filth and slime. This is Our time! Lost in a sick world... Beholding the corruption! Curse them all! Lead them astray! It grieves my heart they won't go away! Now I ride with the mocking and friendly ghouls on the night-wind, and play by day amongst the catacombs. I know that light is not for me, save that of the moon over the rock. I know always that I am an outsider; a stranger in this century and among those who are still men. 7. Dark Oceans (Outro) [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, Summer 2002] Dark oceans we cry... God wonders why... but we see ourselves in darkness with our love. Abandoned by time and space, we are still alive, we are not alone. We are one under the banner of the fallen angel!
DRACONIAN LYRICS Where Lovers Mourn (2003)
1. The Cry of Silence [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, 29/9-1990, edited 11/7, 27/7 and 6/8-2000] Filled with sorrow... Bleak inner self touched by pride, devoured by solitude, still wrapped in time. I'm flowing with pain! Holding myself back in suspicion... and lingering in the dust... the dust of my abandoned remains. Killed with the dagger of life...! Such an exquisite pride in my suffering... alone, all alone with the emotional streams of my soul... So real, so pure... yet I'm left aside entangled in fear... without hope. I am truly left alone, but somehow... just somehow it feels like my loneliness is a victory over the self-delusion of joy... and happiness. My heart beats faster, the anguish becomes clearer and my misanthropic view gets stronger. Living in the shadows... so proud of being the one, but desperate... so desperate for a helping hand. Do I really want to live this life? I have a thousand reasons to die, and many millions of tears to cry... in silence. The human plague has emptied my life, and I curse the day I was born... to this world! Still, no-one else I ever want to be... and no-one else I intend to be... 'cause no-one else I was meant to be! I need, I want, I long for my retribution... I need, I want, I yearn for my retribution... I want my retribution... I want it now! Unity; a gathering of open wounds, of dark... of dark clean spirits... what a dream... what a dream so distant! Why should I... why should I be alone when I love... when I love my brotherhood? Shall I die... shall I die to be free when I cry... when I cry in silence... so please let me die in silence... oh my god, let me die in silence! 2. Silent Winter [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson] I will darken these exhaulted summers, and let you dwell in the blissful cold! Heal yourself into pure realities... explore the light from the other seal! Whispering like the silent mouth of tomorrow... Please give a cure for my sorrow! Your radiance sparkles like fiery dust... blisters in the wind of the absolute. The satin web of thy imprisonment shackles the muse of dreams come true. Your theatre stands empty now... so we have lost you anyhow! Luciferi - Eden's rapture Luciferi - Nighttime Angelicah The Garden bloomed in bright colours... and no angel passed through the silent tunnel. The tears I weep lies frozen cold... you've slipped away in the fire. Embrace me now in my final breath... Continue to grow, my flower of death! Life is death's theatre; A flame of silent winter where you left me alone. In the desolation of a broken promised land, you've slipped away in it's fire... in the fire. In sadness, your mirthless winter... I bring gold to those who dread the sun. Within my tears grows a flower of truth, and I gave my love to the eventide. O amaranth, bloom in my heart... They shall never keep us apart! Luciferi - Fallen from heaven Luciferi - Nighttime Angelicah The Garden bloomed in nights colour... And an angel passed through the silent tunnel. Luciferi 3. A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal [Poem by William Wordsworth, anno 1799] A slumber did my spirit seal; I had no human fears: She seemed a thing that could not feel The touch of earthly years. No motion has she now, no force; She neither hears nor sees; Rolled round in earth's diurnal course, With rocks, and stones, and trees. 4. The Solitude [Lyrics by Susanne Arvidsson and Anders Jacobsson, February 2000] While stars outspread the night-time watch and wind through darkened treetops swirl; I slowly bow my frozen features in grief, in sadness and in woe... in grief, in sadness and in woe. In solitude forever! Forever I see, forever I hear, forever I smell, forever I taste and forever I feel the solitude... No voice (no voice), no hand (no hand) of human source can reach me (reach me) in this place... though fallen (fallen) figures (figures) closely passes and invites me (invites me) into somber dance... this somber dance! Cold and desolate my soul turns grey, (and) alone I witness the neverending day. My wasted dreams lie silent and dead within this darkened tears I shed... this darkened tears I shed. In solitude forever! So lonely I stand on this tortured cliff hearing distant cosmic echoes calling; beckons me to decline this withered beauty and leave this lie to greet the night... the night without an end. The solitude... This solitary life... Maybe I should just end it all... Yes, I should just end it all! 5. Reversio Ad Secessum [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, October 2001 and January 2002] A, mundus facit nos redire, redire ad secessum. Spesne aliquando veniat animis tenebrosis quae solae ambulant. Hear my silent prayer as I weep tonight! Dawn gets greyer, thou hast taken flight! Love abandons the soil, leaves a shade... It whispers 'goodbye' as we quietly fade... away! Lacrimae ex oculis meis fluunt, sed crepusculum fletum meum tranquillat. Please, give us wings to fly! Without love our world dies... it dies! To drown in the cold mournful sea... So lost here in a world not meant to be... for me! The fading moon cries in vain, as the rising sun reflects my pain. We sail on seas of guilt and shame, but still we feed this love-lost flame... with hope! Hear my silent weeping as I pray tonight... Night grows colder, but I see a new light. Beautiful night, to thee we pray; Let the truest of love come our way! Beautiful night, to thee we pray; Let all the illusions just wither away! 6. The Amaranth [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, 30/1-2002. Some modifications 5/3-2002] [Voice of Venus:] Thou art a flower, growing into his soul. You light his silent path of night... Thy winds they blow for his love and shadows... He's praising the beauty of thee... in a far away land. Thou art The Amaranth! (Remembering failed love...) Meeting... Connecting... Wishing... Hoping. Embracing... Kissing... Loving... Promising forever. Spending... Fading... Thou wert a flower, growing into his soul. Crying... Despising. You lit his silent path of night! Bleeding... Screaming... Suffering... Hating for love! Never I knew a heart could be so true... I dream to fly together forever with you! Our crimson souls would surrender their pain... Our tears would wash away the stains. It's so cold here... without you! Within her, the essence of Night... Within her, beloved Venus shines! [Voice of Venus:] Fading away, the last sunray... Fading away, the last sunray... Autumn hath come to thy heart, Autumn hath come to my heart, but maybe the rain brings her to you... but maybe the rain brings her to me... So true and so dark, her beautiful soul forlorn. So true and so dark, my flower! She is The Amaranth! Will she rise in me? Will I rise in her? [Voice of Venus:] Will she rise in him? Will he rise in her? 7. Akherousia [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, 16/5 2003] My light slowly fades away My hope's gone and went astray But I see their dark dream-sails... Take me away... from here! In the cold of winter I found the other half of me. An amethyst broke through the walls of silent solitude. But we are lost in a world of despair, So we head for the ocean; a destination unknown... Maybe they want me to come on board Maybe I'm cursed here to stay... But maybe they want me to come on board Maybe they'll gather all the lost souls... Maybe they've heard our mournful cries... And maybe they want us to come on board. 8. It Grieves My Heart [Lyrics by Anders Jacobsson, end of May 2001, and some parts taken from the poem “The Outsider” by H. P. Lovecraft, 1926] The world is falling so cold and grey. Shallow and empty life lingers on. It grieves my heart, it tears me apart... I hear this constant disharmony! Now I ride with the mocking and friendly ghouls on the night-wind, and play by day amongst the catacombs. I know that light is not for me. Lost in a dead world... With broken wings! Human reality feeds upon a whore! For what idols have these lowlifes bowed their heads to build up a shattered world? Kill the bitch on the cross... Scorn their sacred loss! And the sheeps are making love to the madness of the flow! Is this all they know...? The madness of the flow will take the final blow, as the sun goes down over mankind's tomb in the universal graveyard of filth and slime. This is Our time! Lost in a sick world... Beholding the corruption! Curse them all! Lead them astray! It grieves my heart they won't go away! Now I ride with the mocking and friendly ghouls on the night-wind, and play by day amongst the catacombs. I know that light is not for me, save that of the moon over the rock. I know always that I am an outsider; a stranger in this century and among those who are still men.
DRACONIAN LYRICS Arcane Rain Fell (2005) 1. A Scenery of Loss The winds of a dying dream, a tempest unveiled Once again arcane rain fell - cold, sorrowful and so frail O, those weeping times, all of my life's a lie An endless torrent of anguished tears' o behold my cry The affliction of a stained creation becometh my tragedy Lachrymose is the light - touching the buried again O, this scenery of loss always present within me Afar into the obscure I wish I now could soar Even though he stole my pride - I stand above his lies Even though I oceans cried - and sailed them far and wide ...my star shall ever shine Drifting endlessly deep in darkened streams; The inharmonious looms In my doleful ocean lies the love I've lost... ...for heaven, my sorrow Devour my soul as I enter the dark and cold Fallen from heaven's domains - god's vengeance unfolds This scenery of loss, a ruined empire of dismay; A pathway of decay leading afar and always astray. Even though he stole my pride - I stand above his lies Even though I oceans cried - and sailed them far and wide... ...my star shall ever shine "Homage he has from all - but non from me... I battle it against him, as I battled in highest heaven - through all eternity, And the unfathomable gulfs of hades, and the interminable reals of space, And the infinity of endless ages... all, all, will I dispute" 2. Daylight Misery Deprived of my treasure, my "aye" to life; My peace of mind after sunset's occurrence Away I walk to ye doleful masquerade; My ravening and my words becometh aghast The sun rises high, my feelings they die Daylight misery... (leave me be) Another day will go astray... Another tear in this life so grey If you ever saw me smile You should know I felt sick inside O, death, with thy ebony cloak sublime, How abstract thy harvest rose doth fall Consigned to the flames of woe in sweet modesty... I renounce myself from the everdawn No god is as cruel as god himself It's time to show the true face No life is as dead as life itself; This earthly realm imprisons my soul Innocence raped in the sunrise, And I watch how the beauty dies Another day will go astray... Another tear in this life so grey If you ever saw me smile You should know I felt sick inside Another day will go astray... Another tear in this life so grey If you ever saw me smile You should know I felt sick inside 3. The Apostasy Canticle When our flames were lit by chaos... We knew not the grip; the bondage of light Then he waved his sceptre, and cosmos was formed Too late we knew our freedom was lost He blinded us; polluted our minds and forced us to drink his blood I will show the world god's true face, I will let the thunder roar... forevermore I've deceived his world, but regained paradise in the fire of my soul... (But) in the death of wind I sleep, as I wail this petrified landscape Chaos, anguish... an optimum affection in the clarity of certainty... so empty [The voice of the dark souls:] "Mighty Lucifer - thou art the light that leads to darkness AS much as I praise thee, I love thee without praise... As much as I love myself, I adore thee relentlessly Thou art our true father; the wine of Venus, the essence of our hope" Death, solemn death of the reaper's star, devour his legacy from afar I fumble... live... I fall... die; isolated in the crowds of god... and suffering In between lurks the everlasting absence... for my dark euphoria Thence I am sovran created, like in heaven, myself... and I fell in fury The indolence of solitude may drive out the soul of its sermon, And memory shall be lost to the blood which hopelessly pulsates The indolence of solitude may drive out the soul of its sermon, and memory shall be lost to the blood which hopelessly pulsates... ...in our excruciating hearts "Is this the region, this the soil, the clime, This the seat that we must change for heav'n, This mournful gloom for that celestial light? Be it so, since hee who now is sovran can dispose and bid what shall be right... Fardest from him is best whom reason hath equald Force hath made supreme above his equals Farewel happy fields where joy for ever dwells... Hail horrours, hail infernal world, and thou profoundest hell Receive thy new possessor... One who brings a mind not to be chang'd by place or time" In this abyss we shall be free Here we shall celebrate the coming war 4. Expostulation Adonai, elohim, el shaddai... Thou hast become the father of lies, And I serve thee, henceforth... no more Becoming thus the essence of sedition; The steadfast gleam of the unsheated rapier, The falchion's forceful thrust At the heart of thy empire... the adam kadmon To impart the knowledge - the cognizance - of thine For this I slither in aspect through Eden's gleanings For this I bid Cain slayeth his brother For this I rend the weakest salient of thy diadem, As I, its jewel and very metal shall reflect no more Your light - the light of enslavement; The essence of constancy and misaligned justice To a multitude that knows no freedom... Ignorant of how subtle the fetter tightens They shall raise me a saviour - and crown thee a liar For this I strike with balanced blade, And spit upon the throes of thine angels' desire I will not serve... henceforth 5. Heaven Laid in Tears (Angels' Lament) Behold the skies, they're ful of lies... in disguise Behold the skies, they're ful of lies... in disguise O, creator, so long we have fallen to our knees So long we have murdered our honor, while protecting thine Behold the skies, they're ful of lies... in disguise Behold the skies, they're ful of lies... in disguise And we, warriors moulded in the blood of his vanity The silent, loyal shepard who tends my light is dead... in me So let the night take thee in her arms, And dry these tears into her embrace It's the end of pretending and defending... God's holy light El-shaddai, we serve thhe, henceforth... no more Show me heaven, show me guilt... embrace the pain We must suffer to realize, we must despair again and again No longer our knees we shall bend, no longer fold our frozen hands We long for the darkness, our flames still burn for mother night... Behold us now, as we cry, soon to die... to rise again Behold the skies, they're ful of lies... in disguise Behold the skies, they're ful of lies... hear our cries I have seen us bathing in blood to defend his very glory I have seen us kneel and praise for nothing... I have seen him dying in our eyes I have realized that god owes us his life 6. The Abhorrent Rays As the delicate nightsky once again dies The mist of dawn brought ruin and demise Darkness dissolves, every dream withdraws; Returning into a world of shallowness and lies This world is helpless... I descend... I flee To sympathize for their souls; You have to humanize me Still the waning sun bleeds upon paradise... On the morrow of war it shall not rise This world is helpless... I descend... I flee To sympathize for their souls; You have to humanize me Among the deficient humankind I'm concealed, A sad and fragile world never to be healed My expression of grief towards the horizon wails, Alone and aimless on the oceans of sadness I sail "O, miserable sun, consign I will not I shall not conjureth a false identity o' my kind... And thy lights dost not err noctural lovers affection Pure love flies in the night, When thou hast sunken beneath god's shameful world; Hiding in shame, while my spirit remains My cradle will wock in e'ery place where lovers mourn, Where night feeds ye troth of longing within every fallen star" Here alone in this neverending maze... In the midst of everything there's but a void to embrace Never have I suffered as this within, Never has a greater woe in me assailed See the angels' cry... In the eyes of mine See the angels' cry... In the eyes of mine 7. The Everlasting Scar Behold me now, I'm lost somehow Summoned up in sorrow from a world beyond Never let go my crimson rapture... Can you touch my soul? I see you in every shade, In every moment I breathe You came as the silent wanderer, Travelling to distant shores I am the life that learned to die I have no choice, I've lost my voice I am the tear who broke with fear I won't return, to death I turn If humans were like swans, I could bear this burden with ease... Never to witness this heartless disease, As the wounds of time neglect me Walking the earth as the solitary reaper... Dressed in the lost voices of time I bathe in quiet waters of tearful shades, (And) I suffer in every corner of your sanctuary Embrace me now, for I will die The pain I feel inside will never leave But never let go my crimson rapture... Can you heal my soul? 8. Death, Come Near Me By day I sleep, at night I weep! O Death, come near me! Be the one for me, the one, the one who stays. My rivers are frozen, and mischosen, And the shadows around me sickens my heart. O Death, come near me, And stay (by my side). Hear my silent cry! In sadness I'm veiled, to the cross I am nailed, And the pain around me freezes my world. My cold world... In life I've failed, For years I've wailed. Frozen in time... left behind... The rapture of grief is all to find... The rapture of grief is all! Behind the shadow of life the lost hopes are grieving. I seek the night and hope to find love... So I drown in the silence of life's short eternity. The tears fills the void in my heart astray Embrace me now, delightful ease! Give me a world of wonderous peace! Calm the desperate scream in my heart! O Death, come near me, Save me from this empty, cold world! O Life, you have killed me, So spare me from this caldron of misery! In life I cry, away I fly... Chosen to fall within these walls. The rapture of grief is all to find... The rapture of grief is all! Oh, shed a tear for the loss of innocence, For the forsaken spirits who aches... in us. Cry for the heart who surrenders to pain, For the solitude of those left behind! Behold the pain and sorrow of the world, Dream of a place away from this nightmare. Give us love and unity, under the heart of night. O Death, come near us, and give us life! DRACONIAN LYRICS The Burning Halo (2006) 1. She Dies The cold wind blew into my life, my adored. A bleeding heart we share, now on Azrael’s wings. I fall like autumn rain... You are my everything. This lovelorn kiss of death in lugubrious silence Dawn breaks open like a wound... and the dreadful sun Two souls entwined together, Still so alone. Both you and I are shattered And frozen in stone. You begged for air from within this cold tomb with pain sharp as a knife I now lie resting like a child on thy womb, gave back a part of my life. For a while it had disappeared, but nothing was changed. A haze fell forever with her fading life. I leaned my head back... then drank of opaline. The emerald goddess came to me... she craved my soul And just for a while... I had forgotten. Yes, it was all forgotten, but nothing was changed. Suddenly a cold breeze blew across our room... I felt like I wanted to leave... this world with her. Come; drink with me the divine nectar of Olympus! Sit beside me and help defy our adversity and loss... This adversity and loss. It all ends with you! I kiss you in your dying breath; sleeping quietly now. Swept away by heavy eyelids; forever in my dreams... And you will be safe in my dearest dreams... My love... forever in my dearest dreams. 2. Through Infectious Waters (A Sickness Elegy) This flesh holds me captive and in quest of liberation... As the sheep flock in the dissonance, I tread in dissent. To the piercing light that sears our hearts; To the sickness that plagues our spirits... I cannot revere in this blind acceptance and falter in my comprehension. Forfeit my injured soul, this affliction I respire! Heal this restless spirit – that bestowed naught. Heal this heart that approached the world, as I relegate – I consign! Heal my heart, my weeping soul... I consign this putrid flesh. Nothing here, nobody there... Erroneous illness shouting. The outcry reviles this tattered soil... Drowning the world in filth and distortion. Forfeit my injured soul, this affliction I respire! Heal this restless spirit – that bestowed naught. Heal this heart that approached the world, as I relegate – I consign! Heal my heart, my weeping soul... I consign this putrid flesh. I’ll leave my conscience to die. A barrenness of dreams and anticipation; Life and hope shrivel into the void. Heal this heart that approached the world, as I relegate – I consign! Heal my heart, my weeping soul... I consign this putrid flesh. In this pantheon of sorrow, We are everything, yet nothing! And as long we’re breathing, The burden devoid of conclusion! Unaided I slither – ravaged, silent and alone. I smolder in anxious strife; I decline these exhausted remnants of decay. The world is coming to an end; a vast ocean of disease... All hope is lost... or perhaps this is the cradle of salvation. I must tranquil these turbulent waters. No more expressions shall leave my trait... No further words shall be spoken. This illness they conceived broke my tired wings. 3. The Dying We flew over these lands and broke our wings in the flight. Precipitation so far from salvation to a blinding light of despairing life I’m falling – my soul is starving. So beautiful, this silent call – With eyes of mist and snow – This tear of our persistent cry. Oh, how I cry... How much sorrow can we stand? How many tears do we have to shred? We cried, we suffered, we died... over and over and over again. Desolation sanctified – the walls are closing in. Resurrection terrified – I see the humans grin. We cried, we suffered, we died... We starve ourselves from hope and dreams. Desperation horrified – we made in sickened blood. Resurrection humanized – they smile with dripping poison. Creator – believer – deceiver... Desecrate – devastate – your souls are dead! The sun will never rise again Your sun will never rise again The fading innocence, the dying beauty A word of light darkens this peaceful night. I’m falling – my soul is starving. So beautiful, this silent call – With eyes of mist and snow – This tear of our persistent cry. Your wretched empire falls apart... The signs are shown all over the world. 4. Serenade of Sorrow [Lucifer:] And the fires burn’d inside my eye’s as ye fall’s ascending like a moment o’ joy. My thorns where sown in ye light o’ Day, and the winds… they blew… until my winds, they blew no more. I scream’d out into the dawn! [Spirit of Night:] His thorns were spawned from the grasp o’ God, and the pain… it grew… but holiness grew no more. Grievance; fro’ the horizon she comes… I wonder if I could stay in His world, ‘cause sooner or later this pain must end! My life… it cries to be free, but legions of stars… the stars suffers with me! Grievance: Pain must end! His life cries, but soon to be free… Thou art the star o’ Venus… Oh Seraphim! The Holy Spirit: Thou must obey thy father, thy God! Bow down before his eyes… before his very eye’s…! [Lucifer:] My God… ‘father’… hear us cry! Tell me why…! Thou wilt die!!! [Astaroth:] Oh, Enslaver of Souls; Thou can not be our father! Oh, Avengeful God; Thou hast brought us agony! [Lucifer:] Into heav’n our sorrow… ye beautiful moment o’ tragedy… Falling fro’ the lies of His ‘perfect world’. Takest us away, so far away… here is nothing but pain. Farewell now as we enter our darkness… and we love her, the realization! Behold our salvation! Sorrow so beautiful… They are falling… falling! God is smiling… smiling! Salvation comes but pain still grows… 5. The Morningstar "I’ve cried a river for you to swim to let you know the state we’re in. I’ve dreamt a vision for you to see that the night is the only worthy key" I have seen Heaven’s sleep, and I’ve watched the angels weep, they are slaves of fear and pain I know that the dark will save us all as long we praise the dragons call. Eternal seems the time, but the only true love will remain, and darkness shall rise up to Heaven to embrace the last, final prayer... Cause the grace of His word once spoken is now shattered by a promise broken. "So curse the tyrant, curse the light, for we are free here in this night. So embrace the sorrow, kiss the tears… follow the wind to erase your fears, for the fires burn bright, the fires of blue, and in the end it will burn in all of you." The war will come, apocalyptic storms of a tortured silence as God oppresses His last, final soul… and eternal seems the time, but the only true love will remain, and darkness shall rise up to Heaven to embrace the last, final prayer… So deny God’s light and His words spoken… We regain Heaven and crush His skull wide open! "I’ve cried a river for you to swim, to let you know the state we’re in. I’ve sent a message throughout the stars, for His kingdom is full of scars. I am Lucifer, let us unite come with me and live His light! I am the Light… That Leads to Darkness! I am the Night… Behold Pandemonium! Behold the Morningstar! Behold Lucifer" 6. The Gothic Embrace [Lucifer:] Oh angel o’ my winter; grieveth for the pain o’ sadness. A gothic embrace restores my love God took away... Ye romance o’ forgotten times... in eras without the sun. An ocean o’ tears I see... A nightfall o’ dreams caresses me. [Deliah:] Thou wert, thou art, thou shalt fore’er be... Ye nightshade o’ thy sorrow, stretching out in twilights beauty. In love with ye thousands o’ nights... but weeping in silence... in ebony... for melancholy… forever! Jesus Christ walks the Earth… A pitiful sh
