- Cold Earth Chamber
Cold Earth Chamber
(music & lyrics: Tarvonen)
What grief and obscurity surround my soul
like an autumn night on a barren earth?
Insignificant to suffer here
The struggle eternal and futile
No heaven I desire nor the night of inferno
- Curse Of The Red River
Curse Of The Red River
(music: Laine & Yli-Sirniö, lyrics: Laine)
On pathless ways you wither
and hope has flown away
Rise before my sight
In the great eternity
darkest obscurities
- Deserted Morrows
The pining silence
Crying from solitude
Wandering pathways
Waving from grass
Beside the fence
Lies the mortal clay
The echoes from the past
Flavoured by dismay
- Ere All Perish
With Words Of Scorn They Call
Through The Times They Burn
Where They Go Death Always Follows
Through The Skies Like The Wind Thy Storm
Birds Of Doom
Filled With A Holy Rage Against You All
With Words Of Scorn They Call
The Stranger Is An Enemy
- Flame Of Serenity
Dreaming when the dawn''s
Left handwas in the sky
I heard a voice
Within the tavern cry
Awake the little ones
And fill the cup
As the well of life
Will be drying up
- Flicker
I could hold that hand no more
I turned away and tried to swim back to the shore
To let go of joy and fear
Forsaking all that will melt down to tears
Forever shifting place and time
Caught in delusion
This dream is only mine
Released from
- Forlorn Waves
Without a sound
Saw the eagle rising
The bringer of storms
Under dark clouds flying
The forlorn waves rowing ashore
The island with no name
Many a ship
Here lost its way
- Oriental Pyre
The verge of reality
Faced by the traitors of the mighty unknown
Returning back from the aeons
To embrace the epitomes of horror
To the paradise
Of forgotten souls they fall
Over and over
- Our Twilight
Remain in silence or death arrives
At strange doors we are now
Quiet in tranquillity or everything breaks
The bow is strung up
No stepping forward no stepping back
Better to remain transfixed
Balanced in calmness
Lest one twig shall crack
- Passing of the Crimson Shadows
Lead me to the bridges of isolated emotion
And we shall meet no more
Into the arms of time I hasten before
The final moonbeam falls
No blessing for the poor
Nor for the hungry ones
No blessing for the ones who grieve
- Set Alight
Hiding is
A life for some
We wait for the storms to come
Maybe they
Are always there
Striking down on others where we can't go
Crashing into their hearts
- The Leer
Stream Of Time Has Been Broken
Blessed Is The Infernal Soul
Dark Desire Has Awoken
And I See The Angels Fall
In The Moments Of Silence
As The Wind Has Abated
The Clouds Of Black Come In Sight
Down Pour The Tears Of God
- The Rains Begin
Against the sky a silent choice
She takes me in her pulse within
Beyond the deep the green voice calls
Touching my skin
Her touch is cold yet suddenly
I feel the heat that's feeding me
She rules the waves inside
- The Ritual Of Dawn
The Ritual Of Dawn
(music: Mårtenson, lyrics: Jussi K. Niemelä)
Wash her
Kiss her
Feel my
Thunder
She's gone
- Where All Stories End
This is where all stories end
Under cold and distant stars
Abandoned cities shine no light
Losing battle against the sky
This is when all fire goes out
End of lonesome winter's tales
Every dream dies unfulfilled
Under cold and distant stars
- White Fields
On white fields the hate still rages on
Where does its endless force come from?
It runs amok in great greed
When flesh is weak
And desire dark
Hear the sighing of a bleeding world
Hear the sighing of a bleeding world
