After the Sepulture



Nothing ever stops
Everything starts again
The end and the beginning
Are eternal lovers

Prisoners of or bodies
From the cot to the grave
Impotent puppets
We aspire to the light

The sun will turn in black
You will see the dark...
After the sepulchre

Grams of their brother's cries
Spirit lastly free oneself
Like raise the incense smoke
And the funeral orations

Here time is unreal
Hours and minutes are meaningless
Here eternity has a name
Remorse and penitence

The sun will turn in black
You will see the dark...
After the sepulchre

Life is just an illusion
Going round and round

Ailleurs


take it down a little bit before we start
you meant to get the best
and to borrow the rest
carrying an omen to save your love and guest
be honest to your own self

develop your skills
be aware of the abyss
put your soul sky-high
got to see the light - got to see the light
that lights other lights
got to feel the sound - got to feel the sound
that comes over silence

read the shadow on the wall...keep an eye on your own I

got to socialize - got to socialize
your independence
bridges have to fall, bridges have to fall
if you wanna rise
clear your view from abnegation
wait the time of transition
stand.......................gather staff for war of reason

please get a grip when you explode
for some may be exposed
avoid the peace that she imposed
compress the past 'till it implodes
just play with what you won't control
games you lose are those you win
giving and taking a lesson to thrill
pull up your heart where it hasn't gone
pull up your heart where it hasn't gone

got to see the light - got to see the light
that lights other lights
got to feel the sound - got to feel the sound
that comes over silence

read the shadow on the wall...keep an eye on your own I

A Man In Your Head



Wake up! They try to steal the man in your head
make you kneel in front of icons
They took the place which wasn't theirs
enslave you with a power they don't have
don't need to be guided
their lambs become rams
tell them the universe hides inside us all
Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer...
is it what you got
or is it what they made
holy war for holy fools
blessed are those who break the rules
Men drink the scum of rage
at the lips of warrior priests
what happened, happened again
as no one gets; you cannot win
if someone lost
Streams of blood drown soldiers' hate
but mothers' tears call sons' revenge
Stay away from the sectarian and gregarious
if you want to keep the precious gift we share
be right to yourself, be your own judge
and know, non-resolved things
generate themselves over and over...

Baphomets Throne



Each blashemy is another stone to the edifice
of your glory
I want to be the rock on which you'll build
your church
Am I the son you've been waiting for?
Am I the chosen one?
To be your Messiah on earth
And to sit at your left in hell
I've always ignored the doubt
Answers are in the questions
Show me the way to the bophomet's throne ...
Guide my hand, light my path
My mouth will speak with your words,
I'll make statements with your orders
I'll be the supreme insult
Which will forevermore soil teh image of god
I'll be your revenge, I'll be your victory
Guide my hand, light my path
Show me the way,
To reach the baphomet's throne ...

Being



first day in an unknown place
nothing to say just a seeing face
checking names and codes
longing to give an ode to fame
I kept friends in my mind
and a part of the land I left behind
so here I start to break the ice
beyond the mirror of peoples' eyes
step out from lethargy
to show the world what I can be

so we ride all doors are open now
to ride, take the straight way to anywhere

good day in the warmest place
nothing to say just visiting space
solar point in stellar plan
stairpath cuts through cosmic land
magma of thoughts lava of soul
can pay with time patience is rewarded

so we ride all doors are open now
to ride, take the straight way to anywhere

Bestial Devotion



narration:
Tired and submissive
Lying down on the black altar
She waits passive and anguished
A frost silence glides into the assembly

priest reflection:
Only my invocation resounds in the heads of the followers

priest with the crowd:
- Glory to you Ounis
- Praise be to Ounis

the priest:
- So her blood may quench your thirst
- So her meat may appease your hunger
- For you we'll eat the red crown
- For you we'll lick the green crown

priest with the crowd:
- Glory to you Ounis
- Praise be to Ounis

narration:
The blade penetrates deeply in the young flesh
All together copulate with the bloody wounds

the priest:
Here's the theatre of our dreams
- This is the beauty of absurdity

priest with the crowd:
- Glory and praise be to Ounis

Black Trip



I've chosen the dark, I've chosen the night
I've lost hope of loving a day of life
The shades of night belong to me
I am at one with hell
Dead inside, I watch the time pass
I wait the coming of my day
My journeys are always within me
There where is found teh bottomless pit
Where, there in I plunge, always a little deeper
There, in that other world where only unity is harmony
Sheltered from the regard and rules of men
Ther colour is absent, light is black
Enemies of the sun, the phantoms of the shadows
Have taught me to delight in horror
Faces without eyes, and silent lips
Float in the immensity of empty space
A sweet melancholy fills my heart
Life as a whole seems absurd
Silence is so pure, so profound that it intoxicates
The emptiness, annihilates all
And nothingniess takes its place

Blood Ritual



Life, where suffering is the only satisfaction
Sadness of my nights without sleep
Anguish to be alone against all

Ritual of blood, where a human being
Gives his life for mine
Spills his blood for mine

Now I will be them and they will be mine
And we'll be one above your god

Blood ritual / Purification by the blood
Blood ritual / Total consecration

My spirit has dived into the infernal storm of evil
My soul is forever tormented
Take advantage of this jouvencal fluid
Deliver your soul from claws of ignorance

- Death is the only way to escape the misery of life
- Death is the only way to reach the supreme power

The caress of he blade on his skin
Is waking up my old cruel dreams

Look the so coveted liquid going out of his body
Look the sacred fluid spilling out of his wounds

Let your mind be impregnated
By this mad attraction

Born Under Saturn



Here or there, above or below
it's always the same force which prevails
One must be unreal and surreal
to rise above the fear of isolation
one must accept exclusion
becoming stronger to face fate
Day after day
stone after stone
from disillusion to disillusion
defeat to defeat
escaping death for another death
I've built a temple within myself
where on my knees I wait the day
Born under Saturn
déchirer les cieux
Born under Saturn
sur terre rappeler Dieu
There is but a little time and the road is still long
become who you are, deny who you know...
Day after day
stone after stone
from disillusion to disillusion
defeat to defeat
escaping death for another death
I've built a temple within myself
where on my knees I wait the day
Born under Saturn
déchirer les cieux
Born under Saturn
sur terre rappeler Dieu

Ceremony of Opposites



The top becomes the bottom
The fantasy becomes reality
The conceptions change
The landmarks dissolve

And all becomes intermingled

To flirt with the despicable
In a trance without end
Where the ice burns
Like glowing embers
And where one shatters
By fits and starts of sperm
The morale of men

Serve another god
Lose another dream

Sentiments imprision and leave
Their victims without defence
Love is a poison which
Flourishes in the heart of the weak

From the lower world we direct
The attraction of the distasteful
Makes us ignore the vile
Since only from below
Can one better see the heights

Chosen Race



Fall black shroud, veil of ignorance
it is a new light we desire
Fall gods of man, worn masks
that our new empire may at last rise up
Fight the fear of freedom, you cannot lose
Fragile are the steps, sharp is the rise
Courage! Our time has come
Courage! The time is now
Souls of steel no-one owns us
Murderers of oppression
Chosen race...
..just choose to be chosen
Father!
Give us today what is needed
give it all
Father!
Thy will be done on earth
and in the skies
For ours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever...

The Cross



the wind of spring blows in heaven
in the land of gold in the land of god
manipulate the holiness
maculate our loneliness
shining between two worlds
learning to win and hold
fraction of monopoly
tension of opposite's pole
give or take what has to move
for I will fight for my country
Eldest to the one and I
harvest of love and light
armless - amnesty

North south east and west the cross is sent over the lands
keep draining what was and will be in our time in our life
pilot soul takes you on the ride, no rise no fall for Humankind

Among the best survive or leave
paranoid night so hard to relieve
would you betray innovation
in the name of tradition
hopeless - amnesia

North south east and west the cross is sent over the lands
keep draining what was and will be in our time in our life
pilot soul takes you on the ride, no rise no fall for Humankind

Helvetia gloria still smile behind the shade of shame
cross your faith, join your hands tomorrow holds another day
Eldest to the one and I
harvest of love and light
dictated by war and hate
supported by those who hide
it lives in your mind
whatever you may say
whoever you may pray
Christianity worldwide

Crown



If eyes are the mirror of the soul
You will find in mine the scorn and apathy
You will read my hatred as in a curs'd book
You will see yourself as I see you
It is a mirror sombre and opaque
Which protects me, which stifles me
A great ditch around the heart
Which rejects, which estranges me
There is a world in my head
A dead world where nothing lives
And it is there I am, too far,
Far to far to be rejoined
A crown of thorns is still a crown
I am a king in a kingodm of suffering
I have taken my time to reach this stage
I have taken pains to tourture myself
To descend, to descend
Into Pain, I exist
An if my brain is numbed
The thorn in my flesh
Can overcome apathy
There is glory in humiliation
A throne to be taken, a crown to win
I have no more tears,
And my smile has lost its brilliance
I have forgotten who I was
I have killed my emotions
Crushed, empty, weary
Always standing, I am a tree
Awaiting the lightning

Exodus



So it's now the moment
We were all waiting for
So that is the reason
We're all gathered here

All those years looking at the sky
For a sign
All those eyes gleaming in the night
To lead the way

Remember the gate you got in
Do not forget the place you came from

Soul's migration
To the land of milk and honey
Trust your visions

Exodus
Exit - the world
Enter - the desert

Don't look back to your burning house
Don't need it anymore cause we're going home

Mercury flows around the desert sand
As astral blood runs into God's veins

Remember the gate you got in
Do not forget the place you came from

Exodus
Exit - the world
Enter - the desert

Don't look back to your burning house
Don't need it anymore cause we're going home

Mercury flows around the desert sand
As astral blood runs into God's veins

Flagellation



Pleasure in pain
Disire of mortification
To achieve the extreme
To know the ultimate
To be a slave for a moment
The body offered up to cruelty
To the lash which whips on the skin
Which slashes the flesh, lacerates the back
To feel the blood, thich and warm
Flow over my wounds
Flagellation ...
To thrust aside the limits
To say "yes" to death
Without fear, without remorse
To give up oneself to torture
Punishment and reward
The whip is ambiguous
It distills vice
In a perverse refinement
[repeat second verse]

I



All I hail, hail me back
feel my aim look through me now
come to me, fly in me
get on the top and throw it down my soul
I burn it all here comes the sun

Ask your goal to lead your dream
stay on line speak the truth
walk my path bright and clear
I lead your soul I send you through
send a prayer to those who felt
Peace & Love in der Welt AND FUCK AMERICA
read me well between the lines
for I'm what I meant to be

forgive me now
forget me not
hold your fight
take that light
we don't need another war
let shine inside what we send you here

All I heal, heal me back
let heaven shine on all my sins
turn the wheel move your will
to where your wish is guided to
just wait for a while
'till what you ask comes down your way

Ask your goal to lead your dream
stay on line speak the truth
walk my path bright and clear
I lead your soul I send you through
send a prayer to those who felt
Peace & Love in der Welt
read me well between the line
for I'm what I meant to be

what I meant to be...

I Love the Dead



Originally performed by Alice Cooper

I love the dead before they're cold,
They're bluing flesh for me to hold.
Cadaver eyes upon me see nothing.
I love the dead before they rise,
No farewells, no goodbyes.
I never even knew your rotting face.
While friends and lovers mourn your silly grave.
I have other uses for you, Darling
We love the dead, We love the dead

Jupiterian Vibe



Move with the storm, with the wind, with the flood
get down, rise up, hold on to the vibe
Move to the left, to the right, attraction, rejection
the floor we dance on is the firmament of our eyes
Creation transcends creator
Yes is the word to everything
to pain, to torture, to war and destruction
Yes is the word to everything
to liberty, to sweetness, to peace and construction
Choose, make up your mind before after is no more
time stops while another time is coming
the same leads back to the same
"Present is the time including all times
each second is eternity as eternity is now
and now is forever..."
Yes is the word to everything
to liberty, to sweetness, to peace and construction
Move with the stars, with the wave and with us
dance to the thunder beats, feel it all around
Jupiterian vibe
Move with the storm, with the wind, with the flood
Move with the stars, with the wave and with us

Cry for the ruined time
You've lost to understand,
The meaning of life will stay a mystery
But you now have the answers about death

Manitou



Originally performed by Venom
Across infernal wastelands
Many miles of sunburnt Hell
Tribes are scattered limbs
And dust all laying as they fell
Open lies the challenge to all
Warriors now men
Let the spirits guide the winds
Until Manitou ascends

Manitou
Manitou

Watch the unseen burial
Eclipse the blazing skies
Feast the wings of death
With Manitou the soul shall vie
Distant beats the wardance
Echo screams out liberty
Patience stalks the crow
White man's scalp brings victory

Mighty be the powers
Of the old medicine man
Whispers of his raindance
Flow across the desert sands
Guardian of the elder spirit
Summoning the storm
Awaiting his arrival

Mask of the Red Death



Sickness born with life
She is a careful and patient shadow
Man's faithful enemy
Unceasingly transformed, rebaptized
Behind a different mask
I know it's always the same face,
Always the same eyes greedy for agony
Always the same compassionate ears
Listening to our Moans,
To Our Heartbeats
Passive and disinterested
Like an infidel wife
This cold and wet mouth
Will give us the very last kiss
Death is red,
For those who experience her torments
Bound to death like a daughter to her mother
She gives her mass graves overflowing
Of sketched life, of projects and hopes
What's good to see her so active
Abandoned, in the arms of another plague
Humanity slowly disappears
Someone prays, some others cry
What's the good to see her so active

Moonskin



(En)chained to a shadow of the past
he walks the path of life
following the same quest, like a
ghost silly lover, silly romance, how pathetic!
Constant, permanent disenchantment
She will be called Moonskin
and she will have the beauty of the marble
hair dancing like flames
around her snow-white shape
(En)chained to the Venus spell
he left the reason behind
defiling the garden
forcing the passage
going to the bottom
to steal the end
to shake death's hand
Once again illusion fades away, once again he's falling
as the milky stream of life goes dying
She was called Moonskin
now she's no more
but a round bright sphere
in his night
floating in a timeless place
(En)chained to a shadow of the past
he walks the path of life
carrying that old story like a cross
on which he will, on which he may
nail another star...

My Savior



So small in my greatness
I am the one who never wanted to be
So great in my smallness
I am the one who knows he is not
Around and inside
I am everywhere
Ruling my mind
I am made of power
Started down from below but now
Going higher and higher and higher
From one to ten ‘cause ten is one and…
One thousand million hearts beating under my skin

I am the word which means every word
I’m the truth hidden behind every lie
Started down below but now
Going higher and higher and higher
I’m the beginning, I’m the end
I am the alpha, I am the omega
One thousand million hearts, beating under my skin

I’m the sword that leads every sword
I’m the path which contains every path
I’m immortal, I’m Glorious
I’m Supreme, I’m my Savior
My Savior…

The Ones Who Came Before



Through ages, through history
through civilizations, through societies
taking man as a house
We've traveled a long long way to be here now
Back then, we left our virtual land
to come down on the electric field of chosen human minds
where we unite for the best or the worst
We're the ones who came before
and the One you kneel before
for we're those who are no more
We cannot be understood
as we are understanding
Guided by the wind, we come to your place
reading your wishes and hidden desires
dressing your dreams of colors and sounds
beware of yourself, 'cause you'll get what you want
We're the ones who came before
and the One you kneel before
for we're those who are no more
Liquid Soul Dimension
Far from my kingdom

Poison Infiltration



To Catherine Deshayes (La Voisine)

Slow and painful death
Subtle and dangerous attack
- Brook of scorn
- Stream of anger
- River of hate

Poison infiltrate society

Rich and poor
Noblemen and beggars
Everyone has the key

Personal vengeance or
Crime of passion
Cyanide remain eternal

Mixture prepared in sombre conspirations
Everywhere it slips poison sows confusion

Neither the wheel, nor stake
Can stop his ravages
Neither the wheel, nor stake
Will calm people's hate

Vicious and intelligent death
Certain and long degradation

Poison infiltrate society

Execrable beverage or refined wine
No matter the administered dose
Nobody can be immunized
