Oh father, of wisdom plenty
Open my eyes and ears
So I can hear your words unspoken clear
Your promised visions of ecstasy haunt my dreams
I will steer clear of the right path
As I let you lead me towards my destiny
Into the darkest of night and through sinuous streams
To the shore with the black sand
Where the new moon spreads its darkness
Let your opal eyes penetrate my soul
Exalt me! Before the triple fired crown
Looming as mountains behind the banks of Ain
May they witness my rise
Into never ending night
The Nihility, The Nothing, The All
In its light I stand
You’ve given me the keys to open the door of Infinity
The truth of World and the Path of the Soul
I am of Thee as Thou art of I.

Ah my child, let me show you my ways
Listen not to the voices of the men of clay
For their words are void of meaning
Listen to my voice that does not speak
Let me feed you my darkest intent
It shall lift you into the clearest of essence
A darkness never seen by human sight
Wisdom of the Gods of Night
Follow further the black stream you are on
Through the brick and mortar arches
Into the trail of Theophilus of Adana
Our bond eternal will bring profundity
Go forth and never look back
Take this oath and abundance will be yours
The gloomy rays of the new moon as our witness.
I’ll lift the veil to eternal insight

Be welcome, my friend
I heard your prayers to the blind one
Yes, I am always watchful for lost souls
For those with cinders running through their arteries
Seeking redemption through sin
The virtue of the Other Side
Let me enter your forbidden thoughts
To live your darkest nightmares
To broaden your deepest desires
And chop down the plantings.
Let me build this bridge for you.
Your gateway to absolution of restriction
Over the chasms of finite existence
One step, One soul
It’s all it will take.
For freedom from a mortal shell
No earthly price will be taken
Do you wish to see beyond?
To free your eyes from the impalement by god?
There is nothing lost in life
But the remembrance in stone I will leave.
Your monument of transformation
The exaltation of Death over life
Death is the one who truly sees you
Look now to your left
Where the path of Nod is clear
Join the revolution against the cosmic prison
Join the exiled from the fated curse
Be welcome, my fiend
And I will lead you
So that you will finally See!

Sum Quod Eris

As I am, you will be
It is what burns within
Soft silken embers
A fire to spark
The fate for all
Back to what never was
The end of what never is
The start of what never will be
Stands tall in triumph
In a bottomless ocean
Never no one isn’t
Never no one isn’t forgotten
Never no one isn’t out of mind
And all the actions lead to this
As meaning is undressed
The hollow design of being
Carrier of flesh
Bags of blood and bone
Leaking shit and piss
Anodyne movements
Expendable emotions
Obsidian dreams
Figmental figures
Cadaverous perfumes
And a smell of brimstone lingers
A monument of inertia
I will always get what I want
And all the actions lead to this:
As I am, you will be
As I am, you will be…

Feeble men of God
You can’t trick a trickster
Your promises are empty and hollow
The pledge you took will not be escaped
An overpass for your ego has been given
A blessing for the viewers eye
You’ve been praised for forgery by the dumb
Can’t you hold to one request
One life, one soul of an earth-born man
Why do you hold their life so high?
The hound sent, was a paragon of the behavior of your kind
It has more justification of life than you’ll ever will
Witness now my wrath
I’ll send all the dogs on men’s trail
May you never close your eyes again
Their hunger will equal the vanity displayed
And teeth sharp as the stupidity disposed
Hunting them to the grave and far beyond
For the rotten flesh will attract
And lighten an immutable hunger for more
May you never rest again
The glimpse of the ravenous eyes
The shimmer of their black fur
The salivating red mouth
Quenching their thirst with your foul Adamite blood
Feeding their hunger with your clay made flesh
The bones will be all that is left
Skulls to serve a final purpose
A warning for your next of kin
A reminder of Grim’s Vengeance
Grim’s Vengeance
Vengeance

Mother of Abominations

Finally an aim to my will!
Born in darkness,
to an unyielding bridge of stone
Where many died,
and their sins never atoned
You've inspired legends and myths,
forever entwined
My Ancient Queen
Guided by the crescent Moon,
I walk my path with certainty
From Carpathian forests to immovable rocks,
The ritual is mine
I will return to where it all began,
where eyes like fire untame my spirit
Counseled by the screech of the owls,
I'll find the way
Mother of Abominations, breaker of chains
Mother of Evil, In the depths of the nights,
Your presence gleams
Symbol of eternity, Bleeding at the source
Your laughter echoes through my heart
And I fear not the contrasts,
Your rebellion is pure
You taught me that blood is thicker than the water
Flowing under the bridge
At the foot of the overpass,
you reveal your secrets to me
And with broken lungs,
I will scream your name :
Lilith!

The Devil's Bridge
06:21

I am cursed to roam
Nought but a pawn in this tellurian realm
Yet on Thy side I yearn to be
Stones and ores, yet one cannot seem to prevail
No bridge to form, no side to reach
I am cursed to roam
Yet in an instant it seemed
A brimstone effluvium had enveloped me
And before me He stood
Unquestionable; His presence
I am cursed
"I am the way.
I am thy bridge.
Let me lead you.
Yet cross me,
And you shall pay.
It is not your blood I want,
It is your desires,
That which fires your soul,
so I can fuel it forever,
and be devoured,
under my will."
I did not know
I was not meant to know
What forever was
It is my will, under His will
An eternity to tremble
To be guided by His light
And so I cross His path
And so I burn in His fire
And so I am stained by His sulfuric soot
And so I sail forever under your bridge
So I dwell
As I am cursed to roam
I am home

Undir skyggðarhaldi

Les analyses intellectuelles écrites à la volée — si vous me lisez ici en espérant obtenir ça, ça sera pour une autre fois : je n'en ai pas le courage. Undir skyggðarhaldi m'a fatigué, mis au fond du trou. Cet album, c'est l'équivalent de subir les élucubrations d'une personne qui se prend une cuite à l'absinthe — l'alcool qui rend fou — dans un bar miteux. Ce que gerbe A.F. n'a aucun sens, mais ça hante l'esprit ; le DSBM dissonant aux accents jazz tord les boyaux. Andavald est un bourreau.
