NIGHTLAND LYRICS

1. Postridie Nonas Iunias

[Instrumental]

2. Amongst Blackening Skies

In the coldest embrace of dusk
I drown the rays of daylight
The suns, gathered in void, implode and reappear as novas
Thence the mask of night can't cover the embers of ardor
And my will of control and dominion lasts through joy and pain
I'm above the oceans of time
Father of timeless nights
Amongst the blackening skies
I am the light
In the silent whisper of night
I seal the eyes of desire
The Never filleth the hearts of dreamers enchained in pleasure
So the lack of feelings will weaken the planets' attraction
And the apathy will dip the shapes into the formless
I'm above the oceans of time
Father of timeless nights
Amongst the blackening skies
I am the light
May my solemn word be law
So I can see the emptiness and refill it with fullness
May my brightest light be unleashed at the end of time
So I can shine like a million suns, and be the
One above all
In the sweetest kiss of dawn
I devour the shadows of madness
The stars fade behind the veil of the purest Aurora
Thus the rays of Sun can't bare the blasphemous secrets
That howl, fearless, against the loudest of the thunders
I'm above the oceans of time
Father of timeless nights
Amongst the blackening skies I am the light
Above the oceans, beyond the shadows
I am the light amongst the blackening skies!

3. In Shadow and Light

A LUCE TENEBRAE, A NOCTE AETERNUM
When the new cosmic order
Came through the ashes of Genesis
And the sons of Antares spread the red flame
And profaned the galactic seed
I was there, before time,
Before gods of creation
To redraw the laws of perfection,
And refill the void of ambitions
When the great Mother spawned
On the phantasmic soil of disgrace
And her breast fed humanity
With sin and lies
I was there, before time,
As in shadow so in light!
UMBRA – I wonder in silence
ASTRA – if I owned the power
LUNA – to howl in this night
Of shadow and light
When the gods of the prophetic Eye
Raised the tower of abomination
Cain's descent spat on their own blood
And drank it in centuries of joy"
Let us embrace, in blindness and faith"
They spoke, "in torment and pleasure"
When Y'all feasted on the weakness of men
Yet craved their mortality
I was there, before time,
As in shadow so in light!
UMBRA – I wonder in silence
ASTRA – if I owned the power
LUNA – to howl in this night
Of shadow and light
UMBRA – I wonder in silence
ASTRA – if I owned the power
LUNA – to keep you at my side
In shadow and light
A LUCE TENEBRAE, A NOCTE AETERNUM
UMBRA – I wonder in silence
ASTRA – if I owned the power
LUNA – to howl in this night
Of shadow and light
A LUCE TENEBRAE, A NOCTE AETERNUM

4. One Million Suns

Once the craving of gnosis leadeth me
To the darkest side of the truths
The bloodstained flowers of passion
Will bloom from the wintry soil of reasoning
Where all my fears can't revive
Within the blackened sky
Never ever will the night
Hide and veil the eternal light
Of a million suns
Within the blackened sky
Never ever be the time
Fading your brightest side
With a million suns
Once the dreaming of a perfect creature
Made out of comets and stardust
Enlighteneth the utter black amongst the galaxies
I'll feel the weakness of mortality
The guilt of being almighty
The endless beyond time
Then all my fears will revive
Within the blackened sky
Never ever will the night
Hide and veil the eternal light
Of a million suns
Within the blackened sky
Never ever be the time
Fading your brightest side
With a million suns
The guilt of being almighty
The endless beyond time
Within the blackened sky
Never ever will the night
Hide and veil the eternal light
Of a million suns
Within the blackened sky
Never ever be the time
Fading your brightest side
With a million suns
Never will the time veil the eternal light
Of a million suns

5. Lovers in a Colorless Summer

ANIMUS HOMINUM CELAT ET VIVIT IN TENEBRIS VERITAS HOMINUM MORITUR IN PERPETUUM
Lone, in the sea of awareness
I sail, fearless
Worshiped by existence, blown by
Ego's winds
Like the colorless summer
Without the glance of a shy dawn
Chasing the warmth in a spark
Drowned in the void of the utter dark
Lone, through the clouds of unknown
I fly in stillness
Dethroned by weakness, swept by the winds of love
No! The colorless summer
Burst in her shy dawn
Breaking the silence of Night
And turning her void in a supreme light
ANIMUS HOMINUM CELAT ET VIVIT IN TENEBRIS VERITAS HOMINUM MORITUR IN PERPETUUM
No! The colorless summer burst in her shy dawn
Breaking the silence of Night and turning in a supreme light

6. Unto the Endlessness

Like the Never, who liveth above time
I fed the flame of the
Universe's fire
To design a new cosmic geometry
On the likeness of a divine morality
My light, my sway
Like the Awareness, who standeth before life
Now I behold Thee shining, soaring high bright
To elevate the whole Firmament's symmetry
Above the stars of Boreal sky
O Sirius!
Fade thy light to me unto the utter naught
I, the Suns, warden of lightness
I, the Fire, unto the nothingness
O Vega, Deneb and Altair,
Embrace the abyss and weaken thy fire!
Like sunsets bring moons to life
I'll obscure the galaxies to let Thee shine!
Thy light, my love unto the endlessness
I, the Suns, warden of lightness
I, the Fire, unto the nothingness!
I, the Suns, warden of lightness
I, the Fire, unto the nothingness!
I, the Suns, warden of lightness
I, the Fire, unto the nothingness!
I, the Suns, warden of lightness
I, the Fire, unto the nothingness!
I, the Suns unto the emptiness
You, the light, above the darkness
Bringer of lightness
Unto the endlessness

7. Erernally Thine

In the euphoric dance of blackening
I spread the seed of madness
Betraying creation
I desecrate the empiric wisdom
O brothers of Merak, deny your temple and let Ursa fall
Into the deepest whirl of coldness that
Cosmos had ever known
Leave the essence for the absence
Let Her light fill the oceans of loneliness
Whispers in torment spread a word of lunacy
Whispers in silence blow horns of tragedy
Everything is cold, no sound breaking this silence
Nor breath, but shivering flowers wither their last spring
Where's Thy warmth?
Thy enchanting rays of pleasure
That made the whole universe fall into the abyss of love?
Thy brightness, my light, at the unison fade
Thy mystic essence, suddenly unveils
Whispers in torment spread a word of lunacy
Whispers in silence blow horns of tragedy
May my profane word be kept for my last breath
So I can forget the fullness and be reborn to learn from all the emptiness
May Thy lunar paleness be revealed at the end of time
So I can shine on
Thee with a million suns, and be eternally, Thine!
In the blackest lack of feelings
I feed the flame of passion
And burn in the coldest Winter that
Cosmos had ever known
Thy brightness, my light, at the unison rise
Whispers in torment spread a word of lunacy
Whispers in silence
Bind my name to Thee, forevermore

8. Of Moon and Stars

Pale stone carved in splendor, to Thee my word is spoken
Thine is the beauty the sweetest art could never paint, could never paint
Oh, the sweetest art could never paint
My eyes wide before thy white pure light
Shivering like feathers in a gale of wondering
Moon and stars unite
In the cold embrace of the nighttime
Moon, gleam in the blind eyes
And be my muse through the endless night
Pale stone blessed in mystery, to Thee my soul is bound
Thine is the light the darkest night could never hide, could never hide
Oh, the darkest night could never hide
My eyes wide before thy white pure light
Dancing like dead leaves in a whirl of wondering
Moon and stars unite
In the cold embrace of the nighttime
Moon, gleam in the blind eyes
And be my muse through the endless night
Moon...
Moon, inspire the barren mind
And I will be forever Thine
Moon and stars unite
In the cold embrace of the nighttime
Moon, gleam in the blind eyes
And be my muse through the endless night
Moon...
Moon, inspire the barren mind
So I will be forever Thine
