DISMAL EUPHONY LYRICS

1. An Autumn Leaf In The Circles Of Time

[Music & Lyrics by Kristoffer Austrheim]

With neither speech nor portrayals
He gazed up towards infinity's face
And as aloft the circles he rose,
A sudden breath of dark forgotten dreams came true

For never had he entered the fiery gates,
The mirror passage entry, to another existance... to another plane
With neither speech nor portrayals
He gazed up towards infinity's face

And as aloft the circles he rose,
A sudden breath of dark forgotten dreams came true
Above the circles emerged another dream...
For no man of mortal shell could know, where or when this planet existed...

He drifted and saw stars, sweep across the sky...
He saw suns perish... he saw visions rise from emerald darkness...
And lunar moonlit seas
A thousand years and then a thousand moons...

2. Simply Dead

[Music by Kristoffer Austrheim.]
[Lyrics by Ole Helgesen]

A passion of tears...
Close my soul... as i reach for your caress
Let me die in your flesh
While the heavenly bodies burn out before your eyes

Let me die and die again !

Taste my blood with emotional lust
Let your touch embrace my mind
Show me a hidden path to the source of wisdom
You are the rose on my grave

Traces of flames made of ice
Never, never... never !!!
No, no !!!
Iaaahhhi

My river in which the dawn never shows
...Is hope hiding
Blood of my past... is still dripping
Simply dead !!!

Show me a hidden path to the source of wisdom
You are the rose on my grave...
You are the rose on my grave...

3. A Thousand Rivers

[Music by Kristoffer Austrheim & Ole Helgesen.]
[Lyrics by Ole Helgesen]

Thousands of years have passed, still we do not know
Oh tell me, please tell me, what lies beyond our comprension
We are nothing but autumn leaves swirling in the circles of time
Haunted by the shadow in our past

Time won't sweep away, our deepest scars of memories
It will carry them along eternally
Betrayed by the enigma of existence
Yet, we admire this insignificance

Oh shameful (shameful)
Pathethic (pathethic)
The Fairy's Voice (duet Vocals-Keys)

dum - dum dum dum dum - dum dum dum - dum dum dum
dum - dum dum dum dum - dum dum dum - dum dum dum

(uhmm)
Shhh !!!

Listen carefully, to the sound of an evening breeze
And the sound of a thousands rivers, strugging towards the sea
But all is so dead and silent
Yes, this way it's got to be

[sound of thousands rivers]

Time won't sweep away, our deepest scars of memories
It will carry them along eternally
Time won't sweep away, our deepest scars of memories
It will carry them along eternally
Time won't sweep away, our deepest scars of memories
It will carry them along eternally...

4. Mistress Tears

[Music & Lyrics by Kristoffer Austrheim]

I have deserved all tounges to speak their bitterness over me
The lake of my treasures darken, being blown with the wind
I have deserved all tounges to speak their bitterness over me
The lake of my treasures darken, being blown with the wind

As the earth does weep, the sun being set
Each flower moistened like a... like a melting eye
I have deserved all tounges to speak their bitterness over me
The lake of my treasures darken, being blown with the wind

Her circled eye enforced by sympathy
Of those fair suns set in her mistress sky
Who in a salt-waved ocean quence their light
Which makes the maid weep like the dewy night

Grief dallied with no law or limit knows
Deep woes roll silent like gentle wind
Behold the thorns hidden under each rose
Distress like dumps when

Time is kept with tears
I have deserved all tounges to speak their bitterness over me
The lake of my treasures darken, eternally !!!

5. Carven

[Music by Kristoffer Austrheim, Ole Helgesen & Elin Overskott.]
[Lyrics by Keltziva]

A world like this
We never before have seen
A prism in which the shadows are all dispelled
"The light is scarpened ! All that remains is the light"

We do not seek to be source of your spells of sadness
I seek and i find my power to creation, deliberation to expulsion
Do not sense, but see, my falsification
We are not so far away from home, we are leaving again...

Are you the one who will bleed my tears... or will bleed my tears
Or will my enchantement burst once again ?
Burst under your horrific words ?

"As long as there is life... there is hope for an end...
as long as there is life... there is hope for an end"

While i know this, i do longer know all there is, the taste of blood...

6. Spire

[Music & Lyrics... it's a mistery...]
[Norwegian Lyrics]

Jeg dyker rottene til min egen vrede, og ser mine spirer gro
I en kamp mot minegen glede, prover jeg a slikke mine sar
Da jeg ikke lenger lot dem drepe
Og jeg sa kilden til minegen ro
Skal minegen spire av meg selv
Bli til en mektig skog

7. In Remembrance Of A Shroud

[Music & Lyrics by Kristoffer Austrheim]

We who run from the presence of the sun
By the voived bitter gleam chasing darkness like a dream
All with weary tasks fordone 'scape the serpents tounge
All with weary tasks fordone 'scape the serpents tounge

To catch the shadow, let the substance fall
(in remembrance of a shroud)
Like the sun's bright beam entangled in melancholy
(in remembrance of a shroud)
Entangled in the black roars of an image's stream
(in remembrance of a shroud)
Of an-of an-of an image's stream
(in remembrance of a shroud)

Now i find hideousness in mind shall i disturb this hallowed house ?
I have been sent with dusk before to sweep the dust behind the door
I have been sent with dusk before to sweep the dust behind the door
Put the wretch that lies in woe in remembrance of a shroud
the match agreed - with flames admired

8. Splendid Horror

[Music by Ole Helgesen, Kristoffer Austrheim & Frode Clausen.]
[Lyrics by Ole Helgesen & Kristoffer Austrheim]

To these pale spectres dwelling in the blackness of my sins
I behold her swirling tounge floating in my swart lake
I can almost touch her limbs

Cloaked beneath her woes, i found my nothingness
withered among the pity.. it was dead

Splendid horror, splendid horror
Splendid horror, splendid horror

The blood-red water drives me into ecstasy
I scream of pleasure as i crawl down to her
Even though they fainted, there is really nothing to fear !!!

[now go till 8.03 of the song and ear the rest...]
