AETERNUS LYRICS

1. Black Dust

"human dreams - such a fruitful place to plant the seeds of terror."

child i arise
in your dreams
as a creature - of dread
as a demon - or a wicked witch
what pleases me - i choose
i am the master - of terror
i create your nightmares
child - i am tearing you - apart
my mastery - can not be escaped
black claws tears your mind
black chaos - black terror
child - i am your pain

i'll engrave pain - into your soul
i will set your soul on fire
black flames will rise - as the gate
opens - into the realm - of the dead
here - you will sleep - eternally
and in your never ending dream
i will dance - and laugh
and i will feed
again - and again

2. Victory

once again - we have prevailed
under the sun - we have fought
for our belief

hurling our swords
into our foes
drinking their blood
as it spurts - and covers the grass
with the colour red

once again - our tribe dominates
the green steppes - the grey mountains
and the dark deep valleys
there can be only one tribe
the strongest survive
hail
we will defend our domicile
forever

there's a feast tonight
where we will celebrate
our victory - as we have done
so many times before
hail - to our gods - they are with us
we know
they have always led us
to our - victory

3. Raven And Blood

high fathers - teaching
knowledge - increasing
wandering through lands
listening - mysterious folk lore
enchantment - through books

desire - to learn the truth
to seek the raven - and the blood

travelling for many days
i find the place - where the elves hide
i must seek their knowledge
elves of wisdom - knowledge of mystery
faith growing - deeply
raven and blood - await me

time goes on - i have no longer guidance
have i failed - is this folk lore
confusion within my mind

i look up - and in the tree i see
the raven
and i see the land - covered with blood
raven and blood - they came to me
finally - the eternity

[spoken]

...and the raven became my king
...and the blood embraced me
...and entered my veins
...and provided me with the strength of
ares
the god war

4. Nordlys
