Track Name: Opal
The tree of life
Dropping its fruits
Surrenders to Death
And restarts its cycle

(Aren't you?)
Afraid of loosing
Something so close
That always stays on your mind
(Aren't you?)
Afraid of loosing
Someone too close
That always shines on your heart

Born to feel - pain inside
Born to feel - nothing at all
Die to live - in the past
Live to die - in a grave

Welcome to
Your fear

Fear of your own life
Fear of your own death

Everything dies
And forever shines

Welcome to your fear
Fear of your own life and death
Everything dies
And forever shines
Track Name: Beneath The Moonlight
Through darkness
And
Colossal mountains
I
Carry on
Against the storm

The arduous path to the castle
Becomes harsher more and more

I feel weak and cold
But I have to go on
It seems like I'm seeing ghosts
Must be the end of my days

And the arduous path becomes harsher
More and more...

I open the gate
And the macabre image rises
I came here
To see corpses beneath the moonlight

Frozen flesh
In a dark winter day
Who could have done this
What misterious strenght...

I must get out of here
I am haunted
I never felt like this before
I'm freezing to death

Through darkness
And colossal mountains
I turn back
To the storm
I feel weak and cold
But I have to go on
Track Name: A Sacred Passage
I take this way
Hoping to find the exit
To this infinite war
Where I strangely am

Why do we live in a chaos
Where relligion controls us
If there's no God
Nor life after death?

Between us there's Nature
Which is superior to every human being
We can't continue to destroy
For something that doesn't make sense

I want to get out of here
And build a new world
I want to start it again
And find my destiny

I want to find the passage
That for me it will be sacred
I want to see nature
Without being overthrown

Is it possible to witness this
Without hallucinating,
Completely lost?
Track Name: Peak Of Imagination
I've been told of a relentless being
Like a demon from nature
I decided to find him

Can someone explain me
Why there's an awkward heat
Coming from beneath a snowy ground
Between the mountains at winter?

So I continue
A strange power seems to call me
I fall on the descendent floor
And what do I see in front of me?

A throne of bones
In which lies a demon
Coming from my imagination
I have to stop this...

The hallucinations torment me
I am feeding the creature
That wants me dead

Dead!

I have to run away from my mind
It's terrorizing me

I want to forget this
I gotta get out...
Track Name: Sungrave (Album Version)
From beneath the ground
Comes an eery heat
Where something calls me
To a pile of skeletons

From the womb of hell
Bodies await me
The cries of despair
From that flesh and bone prison

I never saw such a gloomy place
The cemetery of lost souls
Spirits forgotten in shadows
In a warm night with a terrible scent

In a spiral of madness
I am sinking deeper
To my grave
Where I'll putrefy
In a church of grotesque architecture
Full of filthy carcasses
Drowned in insane amounts of blood
In a unbearable temperature

Death wandering by the place
Slowly cuts the breathing

The disturbing image disappears
My eyes start to close
The weakness seizes my body
As it falls on the floor and dies
Track Name: To Reign In Dusk
What I've seen shall never be erased
Am I really dead?
I don't know why I still think
But these images are haunting me

I am the narrator of my hallucinations
I live in Hell
In this kingdom of darkness
Beneath the shadows of a demon

Between walls of flesh
And rivers of blood
I do my journey

In this decaying space
I'm on my way
Through these floating bodies

This reign of dusk
Built with human pieces
Was after all a familiar place
But I can't remember which

Where am I now?
I see a crucifix
Made of human limbs
Hanging inverted

What a demented place
Will I live here forever?
From my dreams it came out weal
But now i'm in misery

The intensive heat
Makes me loose my will to continue
And I faint
Madness continues to follow me

Between walls of flesh
And rivers of blood
I do my journey

In this decaying space
I followed my path
And finally... I got out
Track Name: Toneless Scarlet
She was wearing this dress
With a scarlet tone
As she was approaching
The dress was loosing its colour

What am I seeing
Why doesn't my mind turn off
Of images without sense or Death
If I already died a few hours ago?

I still feel pain
I still see things
I can't believe
I'm not dreaming

If this is a dream
Why can't I wake up?

I know it's not
She's coming, I can smell

A charming perfume
But something's wrong with her

She falls on the floor
And the scarlet becomes toneless

The world is dying
Everything turns dingy
She was the metaphor
Of the end...

Everything disappears
But I am still here
Sorrow doesn't go away
I am now in emptiness
Forever...

I still feel pain
I still see things
I can't believe
I'm not dreaming

If this is a dream
Why can't I wake up?

I know it's not
She's dead, I can tell

By the carrion of her body
That spreads without stopping

She fades away
And the dress... I kept it with me
Track Name: A Portrait Of Obscurity
In a downward spiral
Of complete madness
I reach the most
Negative point

Imagine your body dissolving
In a giant pool of putrefaction
Will I go further than this
I believe it will be impossible

This is most likely
A portrait of obscurity
The drawings of my delusions
And of my corruption

Eternally I am
A lost spirit
That escapes from this
Once called body
The final days of my life
The asphyxiant dream

Going down again
Entirely uncontrolled
Pictures of brutality
Stuck in my mind

Down!

I am drenched in blood
My entrails are flushed
With vomit through holes
Once covered with flesh

In a downward spiral
Of complete madness
I reached the most
Negative point

Where the body lay
Only remains its traces
Gone with the wind like sand
Upon the hillside

This terror seems like it never ends
I only want to be remembered
As I fall on the ground like rain
For the world to feel me again

Eternally I am
A lost spirit
That escaped from this
Once called body
The final days of my life
The asphyxiant dream
Track Name: Between Mankind And Extinction
Stay away from my dreams
'Cause you are the cause of my madness
But I am no longer insane
And you don't belong to me

When darkness has fallen
They bled out to death
Tormented by the wounds from his sins

A book forgotten in time
Waiting to be reopened
Once again

I need to find
Some peace in my mind
After all this lunacy
I left behind

I'm not afraid to kill you
The demon I carry with me

Wasn't so hard to eliminate
The memories from the past
For all the war that was fought
I now take revenge
You did left fragments of madness
In my mind
But I know that I am
Stronger than you

This is the end
As I watch you drown in flames

Now that i'm rid of you
I can go on
The delusions are gone
And you will not return
