ECLIPSE OF THE SUN LYRICS

1. Duath (Intro)

[Instrumental]

2. Ehnaton

I never preached against your law
Never wronged any of the Gods
Suffering I've never been
In my name no crimson blood was shed
No!

Our true gods, you've betrayed
May you be one of Anubis' slaves
May your soul wander in vain
After death you won't live again

I never stole, I never lied
'cause of me nobody cried
I never caused disorder or plague
No holy flames I ever quenched
I never denied our true faith
Forgive me

Our true gods, you have betrayed
May you be one of Anubis' slaves
May your soul wander in vain
After death you won't live again

I'm so Innocent! - You have to fall!
I'm so Pure! - You are Guilty!
I'm so Clean! - You're a Sinner!
You're so guilty, Pharao!

3. Nectar

(A song to Sekhmet)

Sticking to this hopeless moment
I feel nothing but the rain
Taking me, deeper and deeper
The river knows only its way

Touch me no more, push me back
My time is slowly dripping away:
The pale glow of distant stars
This dying gloom of a fading sun

Your nectar's faith, your nectar's life
Your nectar's faith, my sweet demise

Arisen from the realms of lust
I give way to Sekhmet's touch
Adoring her stunning beauty
I'm praying to a nameless god

I was their power, I helped the lords
I Seized the weak and watched them fall

A long-forgotten god smiles on me,
As you fill my days with meaning
Her absence makes my skin crawl
As a hermit, I live on prayers

Your nectar's faith, your nectar's life
Your nectar's faith, my sweet demise

I was their power, I helped the lords
I Seized the weak and watched them fall
I inhaled the surrounding world
I was her sword when she smiled at me

4. Masquerade

Holding out for a rightous hand
Help me through my vandering
For Great chasm opened up
(In search for clear vision)

As even great seas smash
On sacred cliffs
However hard my trying vainly
(Do I see throught conceited) delusions

(As rays of light)
Blinding eyes, but giving life
Opening up a new thought
Blasphemy had me caught

Sacrifice your own life
Deify me for a moment
And absolve us of our Rights
With lies we feed and aid
your phoney Masquerade

Suffering in vain
Yet with all the strain
We do the bidding
And I am the obedient
(Who is willing)

Sacrifice your own life
Deify me for a moment
And absolve us of our Rights
With lies we feed and aid
your phoney Masquerade

As bees servants to a flower
(Rationality is just waiting to devour)
As servants we are of the Higher
(The greed for knowledge will kill me in an hour)

Copying fair natures face
Flames bursted in my vains
Putting hands together
Everyone can become another with their own masquerade

Hiding like cowards
Show me yourselves
Creeping in shadows like thugs
Why?
You dare call yourselves Gods?

5. Talisman

With torn-out heart in my hand,
I venture further on,
Never to set foot on this place again
Oh, hated Talisman!

My sanity went away
with the first sight,
with blistering force
and most joyful delight.

„Oh, now you see the way,
We can be together,
For an eternity."
Your will shall be my deity!

I've became the pulverizer
Of skulls and bones,
Everything...
For Her wishes.

By drinking the
Vitae of life,
I get closer and closer to my
Beloved One.

The cost is so high,
But feelings keep me
On this treacherous path,
For my life's desire.

I've foreseen
The devastation,
With my mind's
Complete corruption!

Cutting my way
Through the human barrier;
The route I'm on
Couldn't be much heavier.

All the bloodshed!
I'm demented!
I don't see the end
And nowhere's the long-waited Loved One!

You have done this to me!
Took away my sanity,
Carved out my within!

I tear my heart out,
To make life go away,
But nothing is too easy,
When dealing the Devil's way.

I'm who past and future sees
Through your eyes!
My ecstasy is destruction
Like all Talismans!
