Lady Temptress
Lucifer's daughter
Born in my flesh
Arise and be revealed

Unknown for the corrupted minds
She dwells in malignancy
In the distant crypts of your inner self
Where Man of God doesn't seek

Please don't leave me Lady Temptress
Revel in my body Lady Temptress

Lady Temptress
Meet me in my dreams
Trace my dark sides
In the depth of my subconscious

Open the door
To the slumbering sinner
Rule my evil thoughts
And let them all out

Please don't leave me Lady Temptress
Revel in my body Lady Temptress

Lady Temptress
You are the blood of Man
The remedy to hypocrisy
Please stay alive

You keep my desires unlocked
And my desires breed in you
The Lady of temptation
Hails the human nature

Please don't leave me Lady Temptress
Revel in my body Lady Temptress
I beg on my knees
Make love to me one more time

Evil imaginations of a time to come
Dreamly dead - Almost gone
Nocturnal visits from the beyond
I will travel down the Mountain of Doom

At the highest point visible
I behold the sun for the very last time
I see an awful sight with awful beings
As the sun goes down behind the Mountain of Doom

The Mountain of Doom
Has taken my life

Almost there
Trying to seize my mind
Still aware
Of their seek and find

I have lost hold of myself
Taken to the extent of my life
Eternal sleep in a dreamworld's coffin
Entombed beneath the Mountain of Doom

The Mountain of Doom
Has taken my life

Almost there
Trying to seize my mind
Still aware
Of their seek and find

Now I'm there
Enjoying my peace of mind
In this lair
Death is what you'll find

People! This is my world
You are just parts of it
If I would have been a big tree
Then you would have been the fruits of my boughs

But join me
We're all kings
Don't fear for your insanity
Fly on its wings

Take my wings and rely on them in battle and fight
Fly on my dreams in the darkest of nights
Put those wings of gold to the fear of your dreams
And notice that what scares you is not always what it seems

In the end fruit always fall to the ground
And new flowers soon blossom
When watching you rise and fall
My limbs proudly extend you above

So join me
We're all kings
Don't fear for your insanity
Fly on its wings

Take my wings and rely on them in battle and fight
Fly on my dreams in the darkest of nights
Put those wings of gold to the fear of your dreams
And notice that what scares you is not always what it seems

In the end fruit always fall to the ground
And new flowers soon blossom
When watching your rise and fall
My limbs proudly extend you above

So join me
We're all kings
Don't fear for your insanity
Fly on its wings

Take my wings and rely on them in battle and fight
Fly on my dreams in the darkest of nights
Put those wings of gold to the fear of your dreams
And notice that what scares you is not always what it seems

Okay, beneath my magnificent crown of tree
I am being stained by dead bark and wounded twigs
Yes, it makes black holes..., but it opens doors
And that's what is giving me places for only a king to rule

Join me
We're all kings
Don't fear for your insanity
Fly on its wings

Take my wings and rely on them in battle and fight
Fly on my dreams in the darkest of nights
Put those wings of gold to the fear of your dreams
And notice that what scares you is not always what it seems

Beneath the fullmoon
Covered in gloomy clouds
Obscure funeral spirits
Evil shadows on haunted ground

Every night they rise again
To meet the lords of death again
They live on as souls in eternity
Forced by an Ancient Entity

Through the mist I see
A circle around the gathered souls
In the mist I do belive
In sacred power of ancient kind

Knights of Satan, dead boys choir
Ten ore more around a fire
Invoking dragons and demons this event
They are not the ones that God has sent

I heard them whisper...

"As you reach the border to the unknown land,
Or when you are visited by the great lords of darkness...
Take your time, have in mind and remember...
This is not supposed to be a comfortable land..."

Every night they rise again
To meet the lords of death again
They live on as souls in eternity
Forced by an Ancient Entity

A sharpened shaft shines through morning dew
Drawn out shadows walk on you
Alone I stand to face the day
Tortured by a deathly silent view

Take my hand, please follow me
I was your love and your destiny
Let us over mistcovered mountains go
To a place where our lost souls can be

Not destined to a heaven built of lies and fantasy
We will sail to the empire of ecstasy
Travel through the back of out minds
And soon forever dwell in necromancy

The hall of Gods
Where you belong
If you have my blood
And faith that strong

May my words be engraved in the heart of every Man
Try to understand them as good as you can
"Drink to Lucifer or drink the blood of Christ
All things are depending on your own dreamland"

The hall of Gods
Where you belong
If you have my blood
And faith that strong

Black, cold and dismal
Sweeping through the nocturnal haze
Led by the midnight breeze
On its journey to its resting place

A shadow out of time
Hidden between different spheres
Forsaken by memory
To forever fly alone

A Winter Shadow
Under the haunted starlight
Under the light of the moon
Among stars so bright
Delivered from Gods
And cursed to an everlasting search

Passed certain heavenly places
Cried out at the gates of light
No open door was seen
Why it decided to assault

At the throne of the Almighty
It asked for hospitality
But the hands of God
Threw this stranger out

A Winter Shadow
Under the haunted starlight
Under the light of the moon
Among stars so bright
Delivered from Gods
And cursed to an everlasting search

Time for a final step
It searched through darkened space
Ended the hellish gates stood proud

But a shadow out of time
Yet caught between spheres
Is supposed to enter the night
And forever fly alone...

To forever fly alone...
