You'll awake life Through perceptive light In the face of your offense Bearing scarlet bark The second moon is Dropping her silver tears The gaze, the sway, you'll pay Through the summer, lost in pain
Through her silvery body Grazing scars Her skin enchants me Towards the doom of spring So I find her In milk white light In this silver frosted night I place you in coffin moonlight
I'm haunted by your touch My soul passing you You'll save my fear from this shame I know I ought to take your flame
My touch will freeze your love Enthroned on your skin I offered to cross the water My blood curls, taken from light
My heart bleeds for Her restless sleep I should fake a yawn Before I go away And when she lies silent Her beauty lights the room But now no other man Will taste her loins of doom
I'm haunted by your touch My soul passing you You'll save my fear from this shame I know I ought to take your flame
My thoughts will freeze your love Enthroned on your skin I offered to cross the water My blood curls
2. Deadly Nightshade
[Lyrics: Raivio]
The strength of her pulse is breaking her chest She's getting wet from this feverish writhe The midnight's cruel for a lonely girl When the unknown slowly undresses her breasts The voice - and her eyes wide shut Her fever burns a mark on her bed The path that she runs among these silent trees Leads her body for me to claim The veil of fog covers her velvet skin As she kneels naked under the moon The whispers from her lips and her screams Invite me to her ecstatic flame, over and over again Her bed is covered in dirt and leaves And she's burning down on her knees Midnight's cruel for a lonely girl And she's getting wet from this feverish writhe
3. Out Of This Gloomy Light
Swallow
If I stay too quiet I can hear her walking by Death cold air is moving Like the touch of her hand
Respect dying, towards our eyes Earth dies, flowers dead Silent whispers slowly flow The silence from beyond
You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark
You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark
I've fought to take you back Cause my day is still burning
My scream is flowing through hands But your flesh igniting
I'm taking you down to the hole Bring on the scum for the flames
You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark
You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark
If I stay too quiet I can hear her walking by
5. Hold This Woe
Please don't guide me again Could you just leave me here? I'll bury these wounds with you I'll be gone by nightfall
The shadow is gone and then you're leaving coldness here It's getting darker now, the night is drawing closer my dear
To writhe.. I found my suffering - the life I hear you suffer me - to writhe I bound my suffering - tonight
The start of cold seasons Just a road of despair There is no way out of here, again to feel you near
Why do you love to torture me; cut me open and leave me this way? And when away of de profundis, you disappear from me again
I can feel the warm nightfall As I taste the death on her lips I am doomed to hold this woe It's time to kneel I'm so alone
To writhe.. I found my suffering - the life I hear you suffer me - to writhe I bound my suffering - tonight
The start of cold seasons Just a road of despair There is no way out of here, again to feel you near
Why do you love to torture me; cut me open and leave me the blame? And when away of de profundis, you disappear from me again
To writhe.. I found my suffering - the life I hear you suffer me - to writhe I bound my suffering - tonight
6. The Silence Of The Womb
[Lyrics: Raivio]
The wandering old shapes Bereaved by their last days The empty seeds, the curse of man Mourning for this given hand Lonely steps across the land Trembling heart in the ocean sand The voice of despair echoes loud here When the waves carry the old For mother earth we fall To the last of man, she'll take us all Poisoned air, the wasted land Turns to our tomb The silence of the womb The skies blow the last light away Summer exists only in the writings of the wise We prepare for our final run When the winter swallows the sun
7. Under The Waves
[Lyrics: Raivio]
My heart greeds for frozen stars Deep black universe upon me I'm enchanted by this warm light Yet nothing can melt my cold soul The lakes, my silent lovers Whispers from the deep black waters Ice would keep the ghost's silent Their mournful song freezes my heart Come down where the embers burn Let the night embrace you And just before the morning haze You will disappear without a trace Seasongs change but the sorrow stays Symphony is getting louder day by day When the fog raises the dead again Disharmony of crushing bones Will take away my pain
8. The Morning Never Came
[Lyrics: Raivio]
One night it happened The morning never came It has been snowing ever since The plague of cold harvests the land And only few still wait for the sun Cities are buried under white curse Remains of the man lay on the glacial ground The monuments of ice curve upon us Leading our way to the bitter end One night it happened The morning never came The clocks tick anew this same hour of dark And if we had only known That it would last forever We would have forgiven ourselves And let the snow bury us together One night it happened The morning never came Now it's been seven years ever since The season of dark fell upon us And only few still wait for the sun

The Giant
Falling from my life deep to the sea Drowning from living to the depths of me Like the water that burns in my lungs And the light that slowly fades above me I'm bleeding rivers and they carried me to the sea Crushing in this pressure, turning to stone
Roots rip my flesh and fill my skull As worms dance around my drowning body Feasting for the one that has gone... But I'm arriving, closing the door, ocean floor
Seven steps from my cradle Closer to the end with every breath What is this hell that was made for living? I am arriving
The giant has grown too big inside me Mountains of black stone, a volcano of dirt When it went wrong? Why am I here now? But not for long...
Climbing up from this nest of nothingess My faihthful steps behind me Marking my trail with circles, a path for you all We've been ripped out from the womb Through blood and pain into this life, and we cry Ripped out, given, but made to be taken away
I've been hiding this giant for too long And it's grown like a parasite inside me Under this shadow I've been walking Now it's taken over me, and she... The pure girl, leave me before it's too late Or I will cut your wings
For I can't control this that burns It flows inside, through my every vein It fills my fingers and burns my throat Chains my heart again Insane pain
I throw myself into this stream And let it take me down, underground Here I end, from here I begin The line is broken like my fragile body
Flesh rots before the giant's eyes As he awakes from his silent rest Rips open my chest, steps out from this crest Don't take over me please, leave this lonely man, Please leave.
2. Descending Winters
Out from the north into the south Winter turned his frozen mouth Tearing down the voices of living Leaving bodies buried in ice
The wrath of distant clouds And the weeping of the ground, it will come Cold wind carries the voice of doom Singing songs for the damned
Descending winters for all lands All hope is gone in his hands Out from the north into the south Winter turned his frozen mouth
Slaying the oceans and darkening the sun With little breeze, it will come Enormous tide of burning cold storms He will cleanse the land with single breath
Descending winters for all lands All hope is gone in his hands Out from the north into the south Winter turned his frozen mouth
No shelter can save us now As the winds come roaring There is no place to hide The final season is close at hand Taste the air so silent, it will come...
Descending winters for all lands All hope is gone in his hands Out from the north into the south Winter turned his frozen mouth
3. Psychopath's Lair
Wash your hands And light the candles Turn the lights out And I'll turn the music on
I'll serve you food you've never tasted before And after the midnight hour I'll treat you like a real man should
This is a portrait of a clear mind The profile of my kind I'll bring flames on your face And when I'm done You'll become one of mine
Her eyes shine like the glow of the sun As she poses without a shame But if only she could know Where she has come...
This is a portrait of a clear mind The profile of my kind I'll bring flames on your face And when I'm done You'll become one of mine
I'll take you down to psycopath's lair I'll drag you there, to the psychopath's lair I'll take you down, down to the psycopath's lair
This is a portrait of a clear mind The profile of my kind I'll bring flames on your face And when I'm done You'll become one of mine
4. Forgive Her...
Sinking in the depths of her warm caress But the dagger I hide won't shed forgiveness Her secret is revealed or am I wrong Though her flesh is weak, my hand is strong
There slow days and endless nights I've learned her ways There open wounds and bleeding scars Led me to her burning trails
I've been watching her silent sleep Catching names through her sleep
The truth that lurks behind those eyes When she grabs her pillow tight So stay with me awhile and enjoy the fire The flames that blaze in my eyes Are your jury and your last trial
I've been watching her silent sleep Catching names through her sleep
The vipers dance around her neck When she slowly turns her cheek It's getting late to leave this all For I have found the cure The burning touch of her innocence And her eyes so pure
I could love her but I can't forgive her So it slowly slides inside her...
5. Fragile
I remember her Dark flowing hair Eyes like deep blue waters And her skin so fair
I remember her How she used to sing Melodies so full of sorrow Dreams in the making
She was so fragile
Lying on my arms, not breathing I can still hear the echo of her voice And now as I hear them coming I take her to our last dance
I remember her Delicate beauty Her eyes so wise and knowing When she looked at me
She was so fragile
Lying on my arms, not breathing I can still hear the echo of her voice And now as I hear them coming I take her to our last dance
The red haze fading My vision regaining And on my arms I see her lifeless body
Realizing what I've done Anguish grips my heart I close her eyes for the last time and she'll sing no more
She was so fragile
Lying on my arms, not breathing I can still hear the echo of her voice And now as I hear them coming I take her to our last dance
6. Ghost Of Laura Palmer
The fountain runs quiet Through the emerald steps and lavender air The statues praise the beauty of hers Flowers bloom around her marble breasts
Silver drops of the open night sky Light this ruined garden The vines hanging on pillars and walls Gather the light over the water
Cold serenity lies within these secret halls Embracing me in her essence The air so calm and still, and her voice Leading me deeper, deeper inside
Through the water and floating leaves I'm following her soft call Into the throne of her fertile loins
In the flame she was moving slow Whispering passionate words As she breathed frost Out of her warm, wet mouth She felt like the ghost of Laura Palmer
7. Gloom, Beauty And Despair
The velvet fog came after the sun wept her last rays Shedding her tears for the night, The night she'll never see The all-seeing eye, the dead light of luna Watched as the gloom gently closed the flowers But the ones I laid upon her Stayed open to mourn my loss
The night air never hurt so deep As it whispered praises of despair To keep in this lonely heart
These fingers cut the wet flesh Bleeding red rivers through my face On my weak kness I wept, but death stayed there Until I lost her to gloom, beauty and despair
Please open your eyes Please don't fade away I won't let you leave me I'll follow you through it all Wherever it will lead me I will follow
Deeper into the pain Further away, for her I step down to where tears remain Over the frozen rivers Through the land of the dead Forever lost and bound in woe Of my ropes of sorrow I wouldn't let go They hanged me to this place I fell Alone and blind I travel in my hell Forever and forever and forever alone
8. The Ship
It came with the nightfall The dark that swallowed the stars One by one it painted them black And brought horror to our hearts
It came down in the shape of rain A wall of black waters Spreading the end to the earth below And I ran and left them all
Away from those dying voices I escape the eye of the doom The triumph of fear and ending lives And I left them all and ran Until I reached the shore
The waves greeted me with majestic mourn To the sea I shed my last hope And the ocean carried me away
The sound of ending world was fading Until I only heard my heart in despair Closed my eyes and fell into a sleep Relieving dream of the distant sun
"Awake" whispered the sea And my tearful eyes were open The crystal night sky shone like water The roof of eternity, ballet of million stars
But as I turned my eyes down to the horizon The stars were fading one by one...
Hope
Deep into the flesh the arrow cut From the hope of a hunter's bow Wounded we fall With bleeding hearts we crawl Taking shelter from the arrows
Cut the trembling flesh And don't let the tears tame you Rip your arrows out And make them cut deeper Crush my mouth, for it still sings praises to you Run the blood out from my throat For I'm still your's
"And the hope will die When the curtains fall And silence the pain"
We drink from the well The well of poisoned hope Until the water will burn All pure hearts away
Keep your eyes on the wounds Those rivers will run dry soon Will it leave you wanting more The taste of flesh that bleeds in your honour
2. These Hours Of Despair
I'm buried in the snow As your blackened heart finally got frozen No daylight in the horizon Your warm and loving flames of wrath Shall be my guiding light In the silent hours
Light has faded As has the touch of your palms No more songs of joy Only dreadful silence And painful memories Hold me day after day
[Chorus:] Was it my shadow That eclipsed the sun in your heart? Was the ice cold river Your final relief? Light, joy, love, hope, trust All is lost
"These hours of despair Pitch-black holes in my soul All is lost I can't forgive myself I will follow you"
[Chorus]
"These hours of despair Pitch-black holes in my soul All is lost I can't forgive myself I will follow you"
[Chorus]
3. The Justice Of Suffering
I curse the love for you And the pale souls you have tasted The sings of filthy passion Will soon turn to cries of pain When I claim what is mine Through the justice of suffering
When the paying of her sins come closer The night will end in tears And the moment you dirt her skin with your fingers You will be sentenced the same Every second with her I count And for every second you will suffer too
No light will save them now When the words of hope have all been spoken And I wash the blood from my hands And let them lie silent and cold on the flowers
For my anger is greater Than the hand that once swept your cheek And my anger is greater Than the human I was I will claim that is mine Through the justice of suffering
No light will save them now When the words of hope have all been spoken And I wash the blood from my hands And let them lie silent and cold on the flowers
Is this poison in your womb Worth of the burning flesh In this pyre of ghost lovers
But every second with her I count And for every second you will suffer too The night will end... It will end in tears soon
4. Don't Fall Asleep (Horror Pt. 2)
Don't fall asleep To the weeping of the birds Don't fall asleep In this room of the fallen
Don't fall asleep To the breathing of the walls Don't fall asleep In this room of loss Don't fall asleep In the arms of dead air Don't fall asleep In this symphony of the damned
"Time stands still in this chamber of pain The clock stops and the horror comes The children cry and weep In this room of the unforgiven Lie down because you'll never leave Lie down, but don't fall asleep"
The signs show slowly with the dark They glow brighter as the shadows grow deeper
Blood marks on the walls and the ceiling and on the floor and the doors, oh how they flow!
Little voices like the whining of the birds
As the closet door opens
I still can hear them screaming And the shape... Is it me on the piano?
Playing the symphony of the damned
5. Too Cold For Tears
Sweet fall, come and take me away from this pain Towards the dark womb of winter Beautiful fall, kill the light of summer And bless us with your shades
Sweet fall, chase the sun away
And lay down the veil of leaves Beautiful fall, come and take me away from this pain Towards the dark womb of November
"To them you are the bringer of grief But you will lead me to hope Into the arms of winter frost Will you release me And silence those fears I wait for your arrival And soon it will be too cold for the tears"
The great clouds, I welcome your shields My old friend, will you lay me back to rest I've been suffering so long without you Come and take me away from this pain
6. The Empty Skies
The dead walk In the silent world Oh, how the dead talk With empty words
Redemption By thought injection And the dead march To the voice of deception
This is now a new beginning There will be no creation from chaos No light at the end Just a faint glimpse of the forgotten
Screaming Overcome by silence Suffocated By the unspoken
And the dead walk With no fear And the dead fall With the horrors of living
Murky demented eyes Stare at the empty skies Desperately searching for something Something that once was there
It's too late for salvation While falling to oblivion We are doomed to stagnation To witness the inverse creation
7. No Light, No Hope
Fall deeper and deeper Don't forget what you have done Did I ever say? Some things can't be undone Fall into my darkest thoughts No light, no hope My dagger in your heart is the mark of my true love
Venomous lips and poisonous words That's what you are made of my dear Eyes wide shut, left to rot No regrets
Fall into my darkest thoughts No light, no hope My dagger in your heart is the mark of my true love
8. Doomed To Walk The Earth
Love is lost but not forgotten I keep repeating to myself every day Too many times I have seen Autumn leaves turn to snow Flowers wither to dust But I promise They will suffer well
Cursed be the day When they took her away and left me to bleed to death Too many times since then I have seen all beauty die And the lakes turn to ice But I swear I will have my revenge
I wander between two worlds No one can see me They just feel my cold breath behind their backs No redemption for the lost souls I am doomed to walk the earth
But I swear I will put them to eternal sleep Then I can leave...
9. These Low Lands
[Timo Rautiainen & Trio Niskalaukaus Cover]
Weakness of the past Like vapor in the trenches These lowlands haunted By a man clad in frost
All evil deeds done Are piled up into hills And visible on the left side Fields of bad omens
Behind the skyline The worst noise of the world Violent crows of this dream Flying backwards
Open below us Another swarm grows Feel like tumors Which shall return
And every night someone Moves all the clocks forward And the sun seems to Set always at the sunrise
No one leaves this place No roads out from here No passing birds ever Really do pass by
No one entering here Walks without trembling No one ever dreams of The hands of tender fathers
Under The Waves
My heart greeds for frozen stars Deep black universe upon me I'm enchanted by this warm light Yet nothing can melt my cold soul The lakes, my silent lovers Whispers from the deep black waters Ice would keep the ghost's silent Their mournful song freezes my heart Come down where the embers burn Let the night embrace you And just before the morning haze You will disappear without a trace Seasongs change but the sorrow stays Symphony is getting louder day by day When the fog raises the dead again Disharmony of crushing bones Will take away my pain
