NOCTURNAL RITES LYRICS

1. Eyes Of The Dead

A mind of its own, spawn out of fire
The demon becomes a God
A child, two-faced and innocent
Transcending
Control, fragments of nothing
Enslaving, reversed humane
Empires made out of nothing but air
Creation fails

Hungry he laughs at us all
Sacred is noyhing no more

In the eyes of the dead, at the edge of the night
In an oath of blood we are sacred
In the eyes of the dead, still nothing revealed
The wounds they still bleed, and won't heal

Blood in the sands, slaves to the hunger
Heaven denies them all
A god, a dome for its pleasures and lust
Possession
The falls prophets of nothing
Promise but take it back
The one, the futile and venomous son
Will torture

2. Shadowland

What was the light that I saw before me
As I opened my eyes
Behold, the dream opens up
What's the thing that I feel inside me
I can tell what will come
What has becomes of us all

Rise, Shadowland
A world of ice
A destiny, the final key
The dream has come alive
Rise up again
Open, Shadowland
A dream to be, eternally

Open, Shadowland

What's the thing that has come to haunt me
The dream comes alive
Inside the gateway of time
At the dead lake of bitter waters
The future reveals
I see the end of the world

3. Invincible

Across the desert plains
They come as though invincible
Out of a fallen land they walk away
Over the shallow seas
With bleeding hands they carry on
Towards the distance in the open sea

New dawn raging
The whips and chains are one
Out of a land without a reign

They come as one, as one they go
Out of the wasteland
No one to fall, Invincible
They will return

Proclaim awakening
To hail a god perpetual
A war in heaven knows no victory

4. Revelation

Now the sky opens up before my eyes
The vision blinds me
On the bolts of fire cast upon the earth
Out, out of the void the riders come
Through hail and flashes
In the distance hear the seventh horn still sound

No one is innocent
No, I will return again

The sky divides in two
The final revelation
Out of the void, see the riders emerge
The prophec is true
The final revelation
Feel the fire, as it's cast upon the world

No ripples upon the sea of glass
The shrine is open
As I wait the final sacring of my soul
I, I open the scroll and know my fate
The peals of thunder
When I know the secret of the seven seals

5. Never Die

Hear the calling
From the shadows in the deep
Won't surrender
We are standing at the edge
They call for arms and we'll stand our ground
It's neverending
When the power comes alive
Never falling
The truth is in our hearts
Rise up and stare the beast in the eyes

Wandering souls, never betray
The last of our kind, our eyes are ablaze

We'll never die
NEVER DIE
We're masters of the earth, coming alive
We'll never die
NEVER DIE
We're masters of eternity, fighting a world to be

Another aeon
And the endless sands of time
Everflowing
We rise above them all
Witch how the world turns into our throne

6. Underworld

An entity, living inside me
Scraped away, the flesh from my bones
Come on in and feel on my hunger
Welcome to my underworld
Come on in and lust in the darkness
Grasp away the skin from my face
Be the mask, defer to the master
I feel the lesion tainting me

Will the faces reader
Will the mask reveal
Will I bleed in splendour
How this silence is killing me
(In this silent underworld)

Don't defy, the mind is the altar
Raped away, in pretends to be me
Hollow soul, the beacon is fading
Welcome to the sin divide
Desecrate, the memories will haunt me
I am God, the festering wound
Empty eyes, a stare that still beckons
I feel its will, it's tempting me

Save my soul, give me peace
Let me through this hole, I'm dying
My soul is gone, you're killing me

7. Vengeance

Into the void, an image of nothing is fading
The venomous grey, dissolves into pieces of me
The carrion calls, entices the pest, they're falling
The Charon he waits
But no one can see the flames at sea

I'll have my vengeance
My kingdom come
I speak in silence
Last mind astray, lead me the way

Flames over ice, the visions are false
Wiat for my vengeance
See how it dies, outside the walls
The memory purged from my eyes
My vengeance calls

Aeons ignite, inflicting the visions forsaken
Begotten in sin
The womb holds the souls that will be
The ravenous hole, swallows the dirt it has taken
Even in death, a dead man is never free

8. Faceless God

A darkened room, a blackened hole
A septic grain turns the flesh into sand
The night is slain, the light is gone
I feel, how the vision fails me
Let them bleed, then suck them dry
A severed dream turns will to submission
This dying world, will bring rebirth
They kill, they kill for pleasure

The pathway is open
A choice must be made
I'm not afraid
Call out my name

Faceless god
A soul for a crown
His eyes are the color of blood
A life for a throne
Faceless God

Rejoice in sin, come on in
Repent no more but the scarring remains
Poisoned sheep, the flock has died
I know, how their blood still stains me
A prophecy, it comes to life
The curtain falls and out comes the truth
Whole death awaits, the memory comes
I know how the vision failed me

9. Birth Of Chaos

Another genocide, a masterplan foresaw the fall
A resurrection reversed
There's a brave new world, a soulless sphere that penetrates
It's the seal to our fate

Your gods have failed
Our will be done

The fiery chains that held but cut the fatal thread at last
Condemned eternities pass
Another motor spins, machinery of hate begins
And still crumbles and grinds

Black souls that seem unreal
Cold empty hearts
The formless hollow shells of man

Time, times of evil
The birth of chaos, regain of the earth
Time, times of evil
The birth of chaos reborn

The endless pain begins and torture breeds the suffering
Another destiny fades
A second sacrifice, a last revenge of human kind
Enslave the last one alive

Strapped to the offering god
The slaves of the earth
A blank stare is all that remains
Witness their birth

10. The Watcher

Inside the earth, they scheme for the slaughter
A part of the masterplan
Forbidden to be, for no one to see
Onnocence for pain, they twist in pleasure
Spawn from a life of gods
The watcher is all, destruction befall

The final embrace
A silent scream
Eternal debase, deceive or prevail

We rot to the core, the final ambition
The hunger begins to grow
Oblivious one, the fall has begun

The final embrace
A silent scream
The presence evolves, the colony grows

Fates are falling, names in stone
Final calling, the watcher of the fall
Fates are falling, rise or fall
Final calling, the watcher in us all
