In a heartbeat, we all understood At the brink of the final hour The age of innocence gone forever Lost in the madness of misused power Our blissful ignorance gave us shelter But now our downfall is evident The lunacy we accepted as truth caused An irreversible detriment We are the Hammer of Eden We are the bringers of doom Striking the Hammer of Eden Sealing the earth as our tomb Stupidity far beyond belief Only matched by our arrogance We dug our grave in the name of progress And killed the last of our innocence We are the Hammer of Eden Bringing our doom Crushing the last voice of reason Sealing our tomb

On the Blackest of Nights The unseen stars align Guided by darkness The Messenger shall arrive Called by the ancient stone The Wisdom of the Stars Perpetual shadows feed The Haunter of the Dark On the Blackest of Nights The unseen stars align Guided by darkness The Messenger shall arrive Upon that shunned church hill The blackened walls hold sway To keep the crystal safe From sunlight’s thwarting rays Summoned to the talisman – a pathway from beyond A call of shadows sent through space to form the astral bond Bringing arcane knowledge to the game war-mongers play His will be done when fools in power blow Earth’s dust away On the Blackest of Nights The unseen stars align Guided by darkness The Messenger has arrived!

Cast into the dark Leave you hanging there Do you know the Word? Do you know the Abyss? Scrutinize your heart Do you feel or care? Have you known the Word? Have you felt the Abyss? Break the shell of your mortal form Cast your life into the void Clarity leads through the storm Your soul transcends while your flesh is destroyed Branded with the mark That will lead you there Can you speak the Word? Can you cross the Abyss? Break the shell of your mortal form Cast your life into the void Clarity leads through the storm Your soul transcends while your flesh is destroyed Across the gap... Face the demon... Summoned by your fear A faithful step... Abandon reason... Reality is near

Why am I cursed with this vision? To see what no one else can see An uncanny premonition Of the things that have to be A bargain with the beast - a pact of arcane powers One eye given for the gift of second sight Yet all that we received - for the foolishness of our greed Was the unwanted vision of the day that we must die Why am I blessed with this vision? The gift to know what lies ahead But still my plans of right decisions End in constructions of the dead All I know - All I see The end that lies ahead of me Hear our woe - Hear our plea Save us from a fate brought by our greed The prophecy I’ve seen, I’ll live to see it fulfilled How can I mourn the inevitable? All I know - All I see The end that lies ahead of me Hear our woe - Hear our plea Save us from a fate brought by our greed All that I know, all that I see The end ahead of me All that I show, all that I feel The prophecy’s now real. No one else could perceive No one else would believe With what I know I can no longer pretend Another chapter ends here My vision’s made it so clear For now I know that this too must end I see it now, I see it now, I see it now Now we’re no more Let it be known - truth lies in death What has been shown - will forever be I’ve seen beyond - nothing will change All sins atoned - as we embrace eternity…

The silence is deafening The roar of life has died Facing the emptiness The bitter cold inside Gripped by disgust I wake up To this unrelenting reality I’ve tasted her lips, felt her embrace The price was my mortality I find myself, caught in the grey Among the dying, the dying to be dead Breathing death, spirits decay Among the dying The air of youth has left me now I feel my core is crumbling Downed by the force of age A mockery quite humbling Give my condolences to The naive lover of living His dream is shattered, torn to shreds The prize for the years he has given I find myself, caught in the grey Among the dying, the dying to be dead Breathing death, fading away Among the dying Among the dying... among the dying... Among the dying... among the dying... This is it There will be no more From now on I will just await my death.

“Enter the darkness Let it take you in Mystified, by the night Free from guilt and sin” So spoke the shadow of the huntress to me As she guided me through the fields Ancient fires and carnal desires How could I anything but yield? Under the full moon By the light of stars Live this night, live your life As who you really are Deny the lies of monotheistic religion Embrace the majesty of creation Suffer no guilt for the patriarchal burden Grant your flesh the true Holy sensation Passing through the gateway Leaving all my morals behind The demons embrace me And greet me as one of their kind

Darkness falls, as Light dies I face the storm with open eyes Another day is over, another night’s begun And finding me cold sober: The Desolation Ravaged by the spirits, demons of the low The sorrows and the secrets, only I can know Still I rise again, and I know The reason to go on is the will to not let go Still I rise again, and I know The reason to go on is the will to not let go I’ve touched the mountain highs, and unspeakable depths below I’ve listened close inside, to hear the river flow Still I rise again, and I know The reason to go on is the will to not let go Still I rise again, and I know The reason to go on is the will to not let go
