AGATHODAIMON LYRICS

1. In Darkness (We Shall Be Reborn)

There on the fields of death we meet again
Surrounded by all the light - in vain
This is our fortune – this is our burden - this is our last home
This is the ending – this is absolution - this is our final tomb

In Darkness we shall be reborn
In Darkness we shall be reborn
The shadow gods call with a wolves howl

Oh great Akasha, let me rest
Under a radiant moon I pass your last test
This is our ending – our last goodbye
Death is calling with his sweetest lullaby

Destroy my shell to settle my ghost
Carry me amongst the few of the lost
The knife is sharpened – my skin is free
O Mother Night – bring me to thee

In Darkness we shall be reborn

2. I've Risen

Through my eyes, with one hand
For my will, within a breath
I grabbed, owned... and brought terror to all the foreign lands
I took the precious gift of life... throughout any realm of existence

I have risen
I have risen

I gave life to thousands of sons and I saw them all fall before me
I ruled the weak, I ruined worlds in my endless decades of might
Uncountable is the amount of suns I've seen rise, pass and sink
Unnamable all the kingdoms I've seen, conquered and destroyed

I have risen
I have risen
For my will be done!
I have risen, between the strong, above the weak
I have grown up with demons and angels, in struggle and silence

(You still) see my tales on the wall of any grave in forgotten lands
(You can) see my shrunken temple, my body, once the house of a god
(You can still) see the statues standing on my kingdoms soil, showing my pride
(You might) realize my triumph above all flesh and steel, the god and devil am I

I have risen
I have risen
For my will be done!
I have risen, between the strong, above the weak
I have grown up with demons and angels, in struggle and silence

I have risen, between the strong, above the weak
I have grown up with demons and angels, in struggle and silence
I have risen, between the strong, above the weak
I have created paradise and hell, in my era of domination

3. Favorite Sin

People go to church for the same reasons
The same reasons they go to a tavern
To stupify themselves
To forget their misery
To imagine themselves
Even only for minutes
Free and happy
[Mikhail Bakunin]

... So I looked behind and beheld a pale horse
And his name who sat on him was Death
And Hell followed with him...

[Pre-chorus:]
"Power was given unto them
Over the fourth part of earth
To kill with the sword
With famine and death
By the wild beasts of the earth
When the sun turned black
And the moon bloodred
And the stars fell down to earth"

To do all that one is able to do
Is to be a man
To do all that one would like to do
Is to be a God

[Chorus:]
Woman, make a stand
Come crawling to my hand
Put away your fear
It's only me, my dear

Man, if there were dreams to sell
What would you buy, tell?
Eternally, your favourite sin
Is pride that apes humility

[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]

Imensitate, veşnicie,
Tu, haos, care toate-aduni...
În golul tău e nebunie, -
Şi ii faci pe toţi nebuni.
Imensitate, veşnicie,
Pe cînd eu tremor în delir,
Cu ce supremă ironie
Arăţi în fund un cimitir.
[George Bacovia, excerpt of „Pulvis‟*]

[Chorus]

[*Translation of the excerpt:]
Immensity, eternity,
You, chaos, who gather everything ...
In your void is insanity -
You make us all insane.
Immensity, eternity,
With what supreme irony,
As I shake with fever, you reveal
In the background a cemetery.

4. Oceans Of Black

Beckon our last goodbye when you hear this call
You can't face the fires once you feel them all

Another time - another day - maybe once we can return
We together in the oceans of great darkness we will burn
Lay down with me and listen closely to the sounds of the old blue
Tellin' stories long forgotten - can't you hear they're just for you

Another time, another day - maybe once we can return
We together in the oceans of great darkness we will burn

Feed the flames of the pictures I adore
We come together for the end while he's calling us for more
Play the violins of death upon your naked skin
Kiss me one last time and let us die in sin

Once we will meet again in the burning halls
Where all the sorrow flows and slowly death befalls
Oceans of black shall carry us throughout the night
Where only death is real they shall be our guiding light

Swim, let yourself be carried with the tide
And on a lovelorn day, put all your fears aside
Behind the dreary path, look back to all that's past
To realize that life is just the way to endless death at last

Feed the flames of the pictures I adore
We come together for the end while he's calling us for more
Play the violins of death upon your naked skin
Kiss me one last time and let us die in sin

5. Adio

Young, wild, green with a children's mind and a heart so loyal and bright
But stigmatized and sacrificed by the feedings of the light
I turned away, head from the sway and find my only path
In the blessings of the flaming ones, an aeon formed with a new oath
Hold your head up high on the causal, sparkling rays of the barren, false and blind
Or follow me where you can see the power of the blackest light
Once the wolves will howl together and sing their mighty song
And the blackest sun alights the world and saves us from all wrong

[Chorus:]
The solace of death can't revoke
The pain of a thousand years and lies
The solace of death can't remove - those bitter times

I break down as the stars burn cold
Burn bitter and cold - inside my heart
Yawns a wound so deep - so deep and old

Darkness filled with a mind so skilled and loyal to the blackest arts
Concerned with light in her last rite to open up the darkest hearts
We have found our final ground to evocate her bright
In the shining of the silver moon into the mystic night
Willing now to sacrifice and look beyond the ghastly ice
Then break the mirror - set the knife and free yourself from life
We who wander beyond the sun are blessed with her last kiss
Damned to walk among the dead and cursed with human bliss

[Chorus]

De-acuma nu te-oi mai vedea,
Rămâi, rămâi, cu bine!
Mă voi feri în calea mea
De tine.

De astăzi dar tu fă ce vrei,
De astăzi nu-mi mai pasă
Că cea mai dulce-ntre femei
Mă lasă.

Căci nu mai am de obicei
Ca-n zilele acele,
Să mă îmbăt și de scântei
Din stele,

Când degerând atâtea dăți,
Eu mă uitam prin ramuri
Și așteptam să te arăți
La geamuri.

O, cât eram de fericit
Să mergem împreună,
Sub acel farmec liniștit
De lună!

Și când în taină mă rugam
Ca noaptea-n loc să steie,
În veci alături să te am,
Femeie!

Din a lor treacăt să apuc
Acele dulci cuvinte,
De care azi abia mi-aduc
Aminte.

Căci astăzi dacă mai ascult
Nimicurile-aceste,
Îmi pare-o veche, de demult
Poveste.

Și dacă luna bate-n lunci
Și tremură pe lacuri,
Totuși îmi pare că de-atunci
Sunt veacuri.

Cu ochii serei cei dentâi
Eu n-o voi mai privi-o...
De-aceea-n urma mea rămâi -
Adïo!

6. Somewhere Somewhen

When all the dust of gone times
Is blown apart through the world's new spheres
All pain of forgotten dark times,
Is broken by the light of a bright growing day

Somewhere, somewhen...

Empty new world, unknown surrounding
The power of creation is now in our own hands
Beyond the knowledge of everything outside our realm
We are forever to be

Somewhere, somewhen...
We'll meet again

Survived the wildest waves
Climbed the highest hills to see
Crept through the most forgotten valleys
And fought unimaginable wars

Somewhere, somewhen...
We'll meet again

Survived the wildest waves
Climbed the highest hills to see
Crept through the most forgotten valleys
And fought unimaginable wars

Somewhere, somewhen...
We'll meet again

7. Dusk Of An Infinite Shade

Fâșii de văluri negre pe soare se-aștern
Tu, lună-a vieții mele infăsură-te-n umbră
Vino, zână, fii crudă și fii sumbră
Cufundă-te-n hăul urâtului etern...

.. Fii tot ce vrei, fii noapte sau roșie-auroră
O singura-mi regină făptura-mi-ntreagă te-adoră
Și-n mine orice fibră te-ntâmpină voioasă...
Umbre multe se-ngroapă adânc în noapte.

Ruini! Suntem un sânge, solemni în fiecare noapte
lar carnea-i rece, străpunsă de-a ta umbră
Ma-mbată tot ce-mi dărui - dureri sau vis etern...

Robit de-a ta privire, din vraja ochilor îți sorb
Tu mă mângâi pân'la sânge, cu ghearele-ți (ca) de corb...

.. Și-mi arde sufletul, esența, într-un foc aprins în inimă
De ființa ta nocturnă; dar tu-mi pari ca-ndepărtezi ironic
Adâncile zenituri de brațele-mi întinse spre negre infinituri...

Și de fiecare dată, când luna, ea dispare
Când noaptea dă să plece și umbre-ncep să ardă
Atunci, eu lacom, strâng regina-mi palidă-n brațe
Ca un muribund ce-n taină mormântul și-l dezmiardă..!

Umbre mute se-ngropau adânc în noapte..

[German translation:]

Streifen von schwarzen Schleiern bedecken langsam die Sonne
Oh Mond meines Lebens, verhulle dich mit Schatten...

Nahere dich mir, oh Stern,
Sei grausam,
Sei duster...

Meine einzige Konigin,
Mein ganzes Wesen verehrt dich,
Jede Faser meines Ich
Streckt sich dir entgegen

(Dunkle Schatten begraben sich tief in der Nacht)

Trummer!
Wir sind ein Blut, feierlich jede Nacht
Doch das Fleisch ist kalt,
Durchbohrt von deinem Schatten
Alles, was du mir schenkst, macht mich trunken
Seien es Schmerzen oder endloser Traum!

Versklavt von deinem Blick
Trinke ich aus dem Zauber Deiner Augen
Wahrend du mich bis zum Blut streichelst,
Mit rabenahnlichen Krallen

In deinem Bett, Abgrund des Vergnugens
Verschwindet jeder qualende Gedanke
Dein Mund; eine nicht austrocknende Quelle,
Verstromend ein Gift, das langsam verbrennt...

Verbrennend meine Seele, meine Essenz
In den Flammen, die du, Wesen der Finsternis,
In meinem Herzen heraufbeschworen hast!

Doch du scheinst den Zenit von meinen Augen zu entfernen
Die zu den schwarzen Unendlichkeiten ausgestreckt sind
Und jedes Mal, wenn der Mond verschwindet
Wenn die Nacht zu gehen scheint...
Und Schatten langsam verbrennen

Halte ich gierig meine Konigin in den Armen
Wie ein Sterbender, der leidenschaftlich sein Grab liebkost

(Viele Schatten habe sich tief in dieser Nacht begraben)

Blood began to clog
Still in the rain,
Some things can't be remembered
And some are harder to forget...

8. Höllenfahrt Der Selbsterkenntnis

Wir haben den Augenblick, den lebenswichtigen Strahl
Der noch andauert, der, wenn er erlischt
Alles vergehen lässt...
Ein Schatten in tiefer Dunkelheit.

Die Sterne sind verloschen
Wie im Herbst die Blätter fallen
Für immer entschwunden
In der endlosen Ödnis herrscht keine Regung mehr
In der Nacht des Unwesens stürzt alles nieder
Alles schweigt, alles schweigt

Und die Maschine der Welt kehrt zurück -
Doch mit euch vergeht die Zukunft
Was einst war, wird nie mehr sein

Wir sind erneut Vergangenheit, ohne Herz, trist und kalt...
Wenn Schlaf, des Todes Bruder, würdig die Welt regiert
Mit geschlossenen Lidern und seinen stillen Träumen
Altert um mich die Zeit

Wie eine alte Tanne auf hohem Felsen
verdorre ich auf meinem Thron

Bald wird der mächtige Tod
Seinen schwarzen Mantel über mir ausbreiten...
Und seine Flügel meinen Hauch auf ewig tragen

Denn ich bin und werde immer Vergangenheit sein
Ohne Seele, trist und kalt....
Alles fällt, alles schweigt
Und alles ist mir fremd...
Hier...

9. Adio (Acoustic Version)

[Bonus Track]

Let's go together with a flare
As for today, we do not care...
And we will leave this world behind
Drunken of love and also high.

Oh, holy death, take us away
On your black wings into the night.
Oh, holy death, take us away, goodbye.

We break down as the stars burn cold
Burn bitter and cold inside our hearts
Got a wound so deep, so deep and old...

We break down as the stars burn cold
Burn bitter and cold inside our hearts
Got a wound so deep, so deep and old...

One last embrace, a final kiss
As for tonight, no one will miss us...
And I follow you to hell
Farewell.

Oh, holy death, take us away
On your black wings into the night.
Oh, holy death, take us away, goodbye.

We break down as the stars burn cold
Burn bitter and cold inside our hearts
Got a wound so deep, so deep and old...

We break down as the stars burn cold
Burn bitter and cold inside our hearts
Got a wound so deep, so deep and old...
