GORATH LYRICS

1. Before The Throne Of The Demiurge

C'est aux cieux que nos chimères nous lancinent
Craignant la renaissance imminente
Car réintégré à nouveau dans le corps et la chair
Ce n'est pas seulement l'âme qui est martyrisée
The uncertainty of the existence of an afterlife
Is not the worst thing that haunts the human psyche
Imagine travelling to the realm of the Demiurge
The creator of all misery in this life and beyond
Staring in the hate filled eye of darkness itself
To have that eye stare back at you
Fulfilling you with knowledge of what awaits
Beyond the gates of death with redemption denied
There is no compassionate, mild judge to plea to
Only an executioner wallowing in blood thirst
The blood being yours, waiting to be released
From that vein pulsing nervously in your neck
You consciously dream, bathing in sweat
Yet closer to reality you have ever been
Revealing the destiny of this flawed world
To be destroyed by its own malevolent creator

2. The Seven Seals

A thunderous voice commanded me to come
And see as the first seal was broken
A white horse appeared, carrying Pestilence
Eagerly accepting a crown,
Rushing into conquest - Vilon!

A red horse furiously stormed forward
Its rider War, was granted a massive sword
Destined to annihilate peace on this earth
To make the sons of man slay each other - Raki'a!

I then beheld a horse of the purest black
Famine sat on him, holding a balance
Eager to spread starvation and drought
The barren soil crumbles in your hands - Shehaqim!

The voice of the fourth creature resounded
And a pale horse now came into sight,
Ridden by the grim and ghastly Death
And was followed by Hades himself - Zebul!

The fifth seal now was opened
I saw the crying souls of
Those slain for the lies
Begging for vengeance - Ma'on!

With the sixth seal the earth trembled
The sun turned black and the moon was blood
All the stars of heaven fell unto the earth
Mountains were moved out of their place - Machon!

Hide from the face of the vile Demiurge,
High and mighty upon his illustrious throne
And from the rage of the slaughtered lamb
For the great day of his wrath has come - Araboth!

3. Wrath Of God

4. Le Porteur de Lumière

C'était le soleil qui enveloppa la femme
Comme un signe grandiose
Elle apparut au ciel
Aux pieds de la femme fut la lune étincelante,
Et douze étoiles chatoyantes couronnèrent sa tête
Enceinte elle fut, portant l'enfant maudit
Elle cria dans les douleurs de l'enfantement
Car la création de la matière est la violation
Des lois éternelles du chaos; la vie est souffrance!
Puis un second signe abominable apparut au ciel
Un Dragon rouge feu, à sept têtes et dix cornes
Sa queue énorme balaya le tiers des étoiles du ciel
Et les précipita
Violemment sur la terre convulsée
Le Dragon s'apprêta à dévorer l'enfant de la femme
L'enfant diabolique, devant mener toutes les nations,
Avec un sceptre de fer, symbole du règne de terreur
La manifestation égocentrique du Démiurge
Le Démiurge enleva l'enfant et le posa au pied du trône
Et la bataille cosmique dans les ciels se déclencha
Le Dragon, porteur de lumière, et ses anges
Furent bannis du ciel, condamnés à la terre

5. Beasts From The Earth And The Sea

From the depths, it was stirring the waters
Unseen and unknown to this world
Imperceptible and cryptic until now
Yet an undeniable and tangible reality
Its very essence was chaos itself
Materialised into this impure carnal world
With the sole intention to make it return
To a state of chaos and lawlessness
From its mouth came words of truth
Blasphemy to the slaves of the Demiurge
But the purest untainted truth to the others
For if any man have an ear, let him hear!
Only chaos itself is everlasting
Every material thing will return to nothingness
The flesh of mortal men will age and rot
Temples for false gods will all crumble
From the depths, it was disturbing the earth
The beast that would complete the trinity
It exercised all power from the beast before
Leaving his mark on all roaming the earth
Its very essence was pure chaos itself
Materialised into this impure carnal world
With the sole intention to make it return
To the primeval state of chaos and lawlessness
It performed great wonders and miracles
Deception to the slaves of the Demiurge
But the attestation of reality to the others
It exercised all power from the beast before
Leaving his mark on all roaming the earth
For if any man have an eye, let him see!
Let him see!

6. Whore Of Babylon

Babylon magna, mater fornicationum et abominationum terrae

7. Millennium (Thousand Years Of Darkness)

Armilus!
And so chaos will claim victory over order
As death will inevitably prevail over all life
The contingents of the Demiurge are driven back
To the Abode of Peace, Ir David, Yerushalayim
No mercy for the conquered, as life is torment
Not striving to extinct a mere race, but mankind
Raging fires blacken all temples of arrogance
No puny worldly tributes to false deities shall stand!
Antikhristos!
And so chaos will claim victory over order
As darkness will inevitably prevail over light
The next to fall was Roma
Burning once again, like in the days of Nero
The corporeal focus of their sins is dissolved
As flesh turns to dust and is scattered in the wind
When Mons Vaticanus is levelled it is made clear:
No puny worldly tributes to false deities shall stand!
Dajjal!
And so chaos will claim victory over order
As truth will inevitably prevail over all lies
Makkah Al Mukarramah, the last stronghold
Where the blind envisioned leading eternally
Hysterically professing his dominance over all
Before returning to eternal and ageless nothingness
The burning ruins of Al-Masjid al-Haram testify
That no worldly tributes to false deities shall stand!
