The Thing 02:03
lyrics

As I wandered into the darkest night, astray and blind, the purest melody I’ve ever listen to, beguiled my mind and fulfilled my soul like no other. Suddenly, captivated by that strange but marvelous tune, my being was dragged towards a lugubrious dwelling. Inside, the place was crowded by death and sorrow, and the air stunk of fear and desperation. But the music kept me going, searching, pursuing… until I found the source… I found this… thing.

Sana me, oh Domine! Sana me… Occidere me! Timeless travelers, dark wanderers Hollow eyes seeing through the grins of defilers Lifeless bodies dancing below the moonlight howling, moaning, gasping on an endless rite Oh! Creatures of the Night Oh! Offspring of the Night Oh! Servants of the Night Oh! Accursed of the Night Glimpses of thousands forever lost souls Forgotten past covered in red cold blood As warmth is drained away through their lives Reflections of sorrowful torn tainted minds Oh! Creatures of the Night Oh! Offspring of the Night Oh! Servants of the Night Oh! Accursed of the Night Sana me, oh Domine! Sana me… Occidere me! Given all up, the heart and the soul taken away… Drunk on death, drenched in gore, famished for more Throbbing inside, relishing the fervor Sneak away towards the last rays of darkness Awaiting the spoils that the night will cast Oh! Creatures of the Night Oh! Offspring of the Night Oh! Servants of the Night Oh! Accursed of the Night

The Bottomless Pit 01:58
lyrics
buy track
Time remained still as I was falling into an endless nightmare. Constantly fed by some bittersweet nectar, blend of despair and rage, as every sane and rational thought, abandoned my afflicted mind. I was not alone, yet it felt like was been surrounded by loneliness itself. Among the others, I was just another pawn in a vile game of pain and torture, of frenzy and lust, of hunger and thirst.

Somniphobia 07:24

Darkness Rising… Twilight has come and dusk is reborn Darkness Rising Nightfall, covers your soul Darkness Rising Behind the walls, Somnus crawls Darkness Rising Starting to whisper the call Darkness Rising Darkness Rising Somniphobia Blackened Insight Unforgiven Crawling, Creeping Forever Darkness Rising Somniphobia Lingering pain, eyes of restrain Darkness Rising Tormented kind of weariness mind Darkness Rising Those walking in the shadows, not closing their eyes in despair. Dreaming awake, dreaming of slumbering. Renouncing to fall into the deepest pit of respite. Rotten, poisoned minds and broken spirits. Fading away like cinder, the few left embers of sanity. Bleeding the blackest darkest terror rising from within. Darkness Rising Somniphobia Blackened Insight Unforgiven Crawling, Creeping Forever Darkness Rising Somniphobia

The Whispers 02:23
lyrics

It was the master of us all. It was our ancestor, our breed, our kin. Orchestrating everything, a fervent composer of both life and death. After some time, I realized the trail of carnage left behind, a path of loss and massacre. As I was floating around in a sea of ghosts, the call of the master made us forget about everything, faith, life, love, hope.

Listen to the song of aged metal swinging lives away Resonant thud of forces colliding, preachers of dismay Oh, discourage… Oh, belief… Oh, regret Oh, transcendence… Oh, defeat … Oh, forget Bells are tolling, for your soul Dancing slow over your eyes Fate is calling, there’s no control Marching to your demise See the somber glow paints the horizon, stains the firmament Rusted skin, obscure, absorbs the starlight, sleeps in detriment Oh, discourage… Oh, belief… Oh, regret Oh, transcendence… Oh, defeat … Oh, forget Bells are tolling, for your soul Dancing slow over your eyes Fate is calling, there’s no control Marching to your demise Speak the holy words of pray in anguish, mourns in misery Burning hot throats, emerging fire, shouts in agony Oh, discourage… Oh, belief… Oh, regret Oh, transcendence… Oh, defeat … Oh, forget Bells are tolling, for your soul Dancing slow over your eyes Fate is calling, there’s no control Marching to your demise

The Desperation 01:56
lyrics
buy track
As a new dawn was approaching, some desperate glimpse of humanity inside me, tried to breathe for the first time in an eternity. Effortless, tore my chains into pieces, broke the spell of misery… and flew away forever. Lingering in the vast land of the living, somewhat alive, but dead inside. And every once in a while, when the veil of the night covers the soil, I can still hear that song, I can still hear… it.

Sweet Sadness 07:44
lyrics

Amara… Donare… Amare… Perdita… Sadness, my only friend. Mortal sin We’ll be together at last. Sacrifice On every spin of the wheel. Never ending Will end the promise you made. My demise Sweet victory, for my enemy Death is a luxury and to die is a bliss Sadness, you know me well. Mortal sin It's been so dark without thee. Sacrifice So many places to dwell. Never ending But not even one light to see. My demise Sweet company for the time being A shell of reality, outside debility Let me go… Release me! Try to reach me… Hear me! Lay me low… To the ground! Set me free… Forever! Sweet cruelty, for their own belief Shape of atrocity and false humanity Let me go… Release me! Try to reach me… Hear me! Lay me low… To the ground! Set me free… Forever! Oh, forsaken… sweet sadness Let me go… Release me! Try to reach me… Hear me! Lay me low… To the ground! Set me free… Forever! Sweet misery, for all eternity Lost in a dream of immortality Sadness, before we leave. Mortal sin Our knot must be tied. Sacrifice The cycle now is complete. Never ending To be reborn again. My demise Amara… Donare… Amare… Perdita…
