THE RUINS OF BEVERAST LYRICS

1. Ropes into Eden

Exhale as the maelstrom returns
And bodies fall into Eden Abyssal
Amorphous and poorly instincted
Unmove with the giants of the seabed
Entities muted and subdued
To noise that has given us names

Alien voices remain unechoed
From alien mountains
Still the breath of engines is never inhaled
Lest the tree of life decays
Thus, as the Hadal turns edenwards
We place our Cherubim east of a shipwreck

Our breath and noise is bioluminescеnt
And clandestine and untaught
Black wisdom fountain, silent and fierce
You subaqueous demon turbines
Return to your nest and convey:
God's sign shan't reach this abyss
No, God still sent no sign

You're trapped without escape
In a spell for a pure dawn's biome
For the marine lights to shine forth
Lights that break before God

Natural colours unimagined through smoke
No shape of a deep sea tree
Our angels are dressed in light
For one last glare, for once in life, kneel down in purity

When the lights come on down here
In the realm of a pure dawn's biome
It's like fire

Entreat your God to hold his breath
It's like fire

2. The Tundra Shines

Fate permeates grey basalt
For whom collapses with solitude
Fate gathers in the green sky
For whom wonders where the noise disappeared
Voiceless, powerless, graceless
To the march of the luminal ghosts

To thee who spreads on execrated soil
We summon light, we summon pain
And freeze the voices of litanies
So let us float in arcane elements
Illusive Anecumene
Here be dragons
Here be us

Stain the bodies that go astray
That leave the path at profanity's order
That do not drink from the liquid sky
Or dare to befoul the silence
We are as whisper amidst yells
Unseen in a Hyperborean spectacle

To thee who spreads on execrated soil
We summon light, we summon pain
And freeze the voices of litanies
So let us float in arcane elements
Illusive Anecumene
Here be dragons
Here be us

Hark!
The ground cracks
Spectral voices welcome dusk in the Tundra

Our vision returns with lightnings:
Thunderous omnivores out of frozen mass graves
And we bemoaned how they yelled with beastly throats
Yet so much without a voice
With fearful scoff of lights that wander
Wondering fearfully in lights that scoff
As shapes of pitch towards the tripartite horizon
Our vision returns in horro:
These blood-painted canvases of the Arctic!

All that remains from a roaring day
Are our prayers for silence in the glaring Tundra

Shine forever, shine, Ultima Thule
Stand forever petrified, pristine Ultima Thule

3. Kromlec'h Knell

Bad peace would send them forth
And no grace shall call them home again
If false reason has them driven too far
Fell the Kromlec'h Knell vibrate the land

They close in from the hills
No covering of tracks
No ebbing of scents
For it sinned
Trespasser, malefactor, idolater
A pack of phantom predators
Lured by cold sweat

THANA-THAN-THANATHA

Jaws of the moor
Murmur in tongues of a myriad beasts of prey

Bad peace would send them forth
And no grace shall call them home again
If false reason has them driven too far
Fell the Kromlec'h Knell vibrate the land

Maze domain meandered
The marsh is so full of voices
Down the moisture
Weighted bodies decay in mires
Phantom stirs...
Speaks of golden tragedies
Of exulting dispossession
Fleers at forfeited reincarnation

Oh jaws of the moor
Murmur in tongues of a myriad beasts of prey

Bad peace would send them forth
And no grace shall call them home again
If false reason has them driven too far
Fell the Kromlec'h Knell vibrate the land

Bad peace would send us forth
And no grace shall call us home again
The most decadent bad faith in God
Summons all tribes to hail your end

THAN-THANA-THANATA

4. Mammothpolis

Beyond the bluster of my kingdom's trumpets
I have reached the gates of the city of Mammoths
Where my fatal children are hanged from trees
For they came at my fatal behest

I am the roistering death
That ye will surely die

I'm without fear deep inside Mammothpolis
I'm decaying... but I stamp down the buried
I'm without fear deep inside Mammothpolis

5. Anchoress in Furs

Forced to pause amid the breath of petrified nostrils
Beast-like, primeval, looming
A golden crown and raiment weigh heavy up his path
Where opulence is ballast rise the corridors of savagery

Feeleth it not a touch of a pale hand
Heareth it not a warning chant
No maw so eager to swallow tongues in abjection
A grotesque mating dance
No nakedness so hostile

Chased uphill between silent monstrosities
Minatorially echoing isolation
Limbs wounded and basted with the salt of the mountain
The grimace of God's instinct is beautified here
And she shall not relent...

A prayer for death as a poem to the stars
Gold dust trickles through hands that reached towards the night sky
A rotten heart of greed is buried tonight
Forsaken under rock, becoming clouds
Bonfires fed with remains of fortune
Let them be seen from afar!

Chasten us all and never soothe the mountain
"Sie waren wie große Vögel und dann waren die Trompeten zu hören. Und mitten in der Finsternis entstand ein weißer Schein entsetzlich kalt! Ich dachte: Jetzt zerbricht die Erde in Himmel und Hölle! Und dazwischen: Nebel! Undurchdringlicher Nebel! Der Nebel ist gut, sonst würden wir sehen was wir nicht erwarten."

6. Polar Hiss Hysteria

At the womb of the stone torches crouch for shelter
Shaped clouds from glimmering lands
Have been reaching out too far

Here ache for an intimate saviour
Catch a carrion moon, hear a grieving sun
And a grim warning not to leave the village
When the polar night falls...

Sought a golden view from the white roof of earth
No safer triumph, no holier supper
Clawed his soul, began to eat his frozen heart
Perish in polar hiss hysteria!

Red rises the haze between teeth
It has thus been since ages
Yet the chants have lost all tragedy

Many have come to be slain upon the alter of ice
Many that imagined footprints of God
While the noise may throw wires and sever heads
These wombs had never given him birth
To raise sword against the void that feeds
Is a sign of a savage trance
And a hissing trance is wherein he remains
He who is drained of pure red
Polar Hiss Hysteria!

7. Deserts to Bind and Defeat

The vultures spy on us
From frames in skies
To seize the rich parts of our mind
Unveil the sun
Let the brave inside
Isolate me from my kind

Our driven herd must pass me by
To cut affection off my sight
Yet this desert binds and it defeats
No lash cruel enough to redden our eyes
Isolate me from my kind

As we crawl towards the sun
With fiercest drought in numbest hearts
I lag behind to vomit undivided agony
Been denied the gift that sears
Been ripping out teeth
To demonize the soul for a pride untold
All this dying is oh so shrill
We must have scorned the sun
'Til our instincts failed

Before shunning what is forever harnessed
I failed at taming the wildest of sands
And surrendered to the sun
Isolate me from my kind
Leave me here with beasts
