In Nomine Aeternitatis 2000
Dark Horizons
Nicht mehr begreifen kann ich der Winde Streit: Denn eine Woge wälzt sich von hier heran, Von dort die andre. Wir inmitten treiben im Sturme Auf schwarzem Schiffe. Das Ungewitter bracht' uns in Todesnot. Schon schlagen Wellen hoch über Bord und Deck, Durchlöchert ist das ganze Segel, Fetzen nur flattern von ihm im Winde. Die Anker halten nicht............ Und bricht die Sturzsee über das Schiff, so schwand Ihm jede Lust am Kampfe mit Sturm und Meer: Man meint, die Klippe in der Tiefe Schlägt es bald leck und zerbricht's in Trümmer. In solchem Seesturm treibt unser Schiff dahin. ...
Underworld Domain
"I never lived elsewhere Than in dimensions of fear. My spirit is enthroned in the land Of the silent moving shadows. Where a deep red fountain Keeps a thousand lakes of blood. And the stairways to nowhere Are the only hope That remains to the souls... In this eternal realm of pain. This is the only place I can remember In my ancient existence. And the gate, I am. Here it's not a question Of life and death anymore, But of torment and despair. Here lie bodies Of unnameable kinds, Tortured by soulless demons ...and worse... Goodness reflects the light, And evil, bears the seeds Of all darkness. These are the mirrors of the soul, The reflections of the mind. So choose well, wanderer, For here lurk truth and damnation. It belongs to you And your imagination."
The Infinite
Which way is the right path As I stand upon This chaotic crossroad of hate... How many ways Are there to roam On this dark and damned Road of fate... There are many ways my son, To find where the souls Of demons remain... But it takes only one second Of despair And of doubt until at last, Your soul they will gain... Inherit these lands, These things, These dreams that are yours, Forever to adore For there is no life, In the depths of chaos, My son for you to explore. There are many ways my son, To find where the souls Of demons remain... But it takes only one second Of despair and of doubt Until at last, Your soul they will gain... Inherit these lands, These things, These dreams that are yours, Forever to adore For there is no life, In the depths of chaos, My son for you to explore.
Caverna Obscura
Silva vetus stabat nulla violata Securi et specus in media virgis Ac vimine densus Effigiens humilem lapidum Compagibus arcum uberibus Fecundus aquis, ubi conditus Antro martius anguis erat Cristis praesiginis et auro Igne micant oculi, Corpus timet omne Venenis, tres vibrant linguae, Triblici stant Ordine pentes quem postquam Tyria lucum de gente profecti Infausto tetigere Gradu demissaque In undas urna declit sonitum, Longo caput extulit Antro caeruleus serpens Horrendaque sibilia misit. Effluxere urnae manibus, Et attonitus subitus Tremor occupat artus, Ille volubilibus aquamosos Nexibus orbes torquet Et immensos saltu Sinuatur in arcus ac media Plus parte leves Crectus in auras Descipit omne Nemus tontaque est Corpore quanto, Si totum spectes, geminas Qui separat arctos Nec mora phoenicas, Sive ipse timor Prohibebat utrumque, occupat. Hos morsu, Longis complexibus illos, Hos necat adflatu Funesti tabe venemi, Sanguisque reliquit corpus.
Only The Blind Can See...
Down the halls, Where no light glows- Where once was life Now shadows move. Without mind, Without a will They search... And never fade away, The end of all paths is their aim, But never they will find again What was lost In nowhere once, In the space that is called time. Down the halls, Where the silence lasts, In the dark where dust prevails The shadows lurk Beyond your sight And follow you To where you go. Quietly they listen To your breath, And in obscurity They wait for you. You must move To find the key That only the blind can see. Instead of wisdom Thou need instinct. But even if you call my name A shadow you will be again. Only the blind can see...
In Signo Mortis
Live...between the wolf in your heart And the cross in your back. Betrayed by your belief - Sworn to your arms - You had never any choice. Thou will wander endlessly In the shadows of thy doubt... Possessed by your desires. Fight for the wolf in your heart Against the cross in your back. See the dark side of thy soul As clear as thou Once have seen the sun. Enjoy the pain that lies In this tragic beauty Of your being. Death is worth to be worshipped And damnation consists Of undoubtly truth. Thou broke the cross And fell into everlasting darkness. Te in signum mortis. Te in corpore immortale.
In Nomine Aeternitatis
So we awaked In a place beyond space and time Where mortal limits last no more. We left the balance And the fading world Witout regret, Without on more thought. Carried by the shadows we drift Into another sphere. Erased are fear And all emotions - I feel the great collective now. Within the everlasting void - Time never existed And constant... Is all existence.
