[Instrumental]
				

Raging fire, burning souls
Twisted eyes as love unfolds
I am creeping towards my end
Through black mist I shall ascend

The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore

Can you see the angels coming - For Evermore
Can you hear the drums a'drumming - For Evermore
Can you hear the Devil's faithful calling - For Evermore
Can you hear His death bell ring? - For Evermore

The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore
Time of no time for evermore
The time of no time evermore

So now the grounds are wet with blood
And so my hands are wet with lust
Our loins explode with primordial heat
Rejoice as snakes coil amongst our feet

Slaves to the nature of the beast
Deathsexbizarre lycanthropy
Razor love and desires free
We are bound in fire you and me

The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore
Time of no time for evermore
The time of no time evermore
				

I'd walk over broken glass for you
I'd crawl over burning coals for you
I'd do all the things you'd have me do
And I would gladly give my life for you

Lay me on your bed of nails
Tie me to your whipping post
I'll let you kill me
And I'll be your ghost

I'd hang my self in iron chains for you
I'd whip my self with razorwire for you
If you'd only promise to kiss my wounds
I would gladly give my life to you

Oh, enough of this torment!
I am praying on broken knees
Let this cup pass my lips, oh lord
I wish only to be with thee
				

Long have I waited
For the hour to strike
For the stars to grow tired, and fall
Since the birth of the earth have I waited
For the sands of its time to run low
But tonight...
I shall wait no more

I'm leaving now
On a trail to sulphur and salt
Yes, I'm leaving
To the havens where all things known halt
The yonder beckons
The twilight oceans call
To forbidden shores
I'll set my course

I've seen enough
Of your little world
How it helplessly
In the darkness twirls
But from the roaring depths
Beyond the known
My maker calls
It's time to go...

I'm leaving now
The sun is sinking in the west
Yes, I'm leaving
To hell with all the rest
The yonder beckons
The twilight oceans call
Towards forbidden shores
I'll set my course

The winds of Apep are upon my sail
From neath the waves I hear the old ones sing their song
And in the distance now, the seventh lighthouse burn
That is where the oceans end, and that is where I yearn

There begins
A journey long
Past the seventh
And ever on
The yonder beckons
I can hear its roaring wail
From the starless spheres of nothing
Where the Serpent lets loose its tail
				

Don't wait on the threshold
Come stay in the dark
Come forth in the hallways
And receive your mark

There are many rooms in my Father's house
There are many voices calling out

For you who are lost and you are seen
You have been chosen by those inbetween

Like a crow perched on the gallows
We await your fall with glee
We've lured you in the shallows
10.000 voices call to thee
				

Hedonistic fire in the dead of night
I gave my soul away
I've been stripped of all but lust
And I've seen Hell today
It had a toilet seat and a lock on the door
and it made me feel okay
I know they had it in for me but I love their sweet decay

I see a tunnel at the end of the light
And it's driving me insane
Just tell me If I'm wrong or I'm right
And if it's Christ or cocaine

The lies we tell to secure our fate
Are never far behind us
The things we say and the things we do
Will in the end blind us

Do you think you're a sinner or a saint?
Do you even think you could see?
Or would you rather step into my Church
And go to Hell with me
				

Dressed in black I stand before Her
The smell of blood like a languid sea
The sickly sweet stench of death
I taint the air with laboured breath

A thousand names, a thousand songs,
In the dead of night we share her tunes
Love and death, blood and fire
The pleasure of this dark desire

Can't you feel her darkness creeping?
Can't you hear her voices calling?
Must you dream of a world without her?
Won't you bask in her flames?

The twilight times,
The witching hour,
Praise her might,
It is time

A million years
I will serve
My queen forever
A million years
I will serve
My queen forever

I can't hear your words of warning
The beating of my heart drowns all sound
I cannot see your guiding light
The burning of my soul outshines all stars

A thousand names, a thousand songs,
In the dead of night we share her tunes
Love and death, blood and fire
The pleasure of this dark desire

The twilight times,
The witching hour,
Praise her might,
It is time

A million years
I will serve
My queen forever
A million years
I will serve
My queen forever
				

Oh shining star
Oh crescent moon
Oh guiding light
Oh hand of doom

Oh death above
Oh life below
Oh gift of love
So grim bestowed

Take my hand
Oh formless one
And make my mind
Your shining knife

Down in yon' forest
There stands a hall
Our sacred memory
To thy fall

Oh in the twilight
Yes in the gloaming
Oh thee of deadlight
Oh thee of roaming

Oh path of death
Oh trail of tears
Oh lifeless breath
Oh lover dear

Take my hand
Oh formless one
And destroy my hollow eyes
Fill me with perdition's wine

Down in yon' forest
There stands a hall
Our sacred memory
To thy fall

We would as thee
Rebel against all
Erect your staff
Strong and tall
				

We are at the summit of the highest mountain
We are at the bottom of the deepest lake
We are at the center of the raging fire
We are at the outskirts to claim our stake

We are born of joy and frustration
We are born of love and desperation
We are born of hate and perseverance
We are born of anger and deliverance

Feeding the fire with tears and blood
Feeding the fire with tears and blood

We are on the outside waiting
We are on the inside hiding
We are on the threshold of knowing
We are on the verge of...

...Feeding the fire with tears and blood
Feeding the fire with tears and blood
				

Awake now, You who sent me down from the hills into the towns
Awake now, you whose scent meets with that of the kills in the downs
I did not awake you through the winter
I have let you wander by yourself through the summer

In Spring and Fall you are mine

Awake now, you whose name breaks the waves
Awake now, you whose name sounds like thunder
I did give unto you your crown, the seventh diadem
I have taken from you, the mantle of God

In blood and grief you are mine
				

Dark mother of the endless sea
I bow down to kneel before Thee
I shake and I tremble in Thy sight

Companion to the Ancient Ones
Your darkness is like a thousand suns
Pain and doom in the light of the moon

On the steps to the burning grounds
I was lost but now I am found
No more shall I hang my head in shame

The ash and smoke take my breath away
And as my blood starts to mix with the clay
I tear these chains away

Horror and laughter
Cyanide and wine
Dark possession
My life is thine

On the steps to the burning grounds
I was lost but now I am found
No more shall I hang my head in shame

The ash and smoke take my breath away
And as my blood starts to mix with the clay
I tear these chains away
