1. From the Shades of Hades... 07:12
Within the deepest and darkest of nights
Where nothing stirs and nightmares dare flight
In the grave and as hell is athirst
A spectre arises from grounds now accursed
Hark now as winds toil and wallow
Nascent death hangs just like gallows
In the living an insatiable allure
Into the veins, so sanguine and pure
Long dead now creeps amgonst shadows
Grim deep, erose & unhallowed
A tormentor of unsettling dreams
Comes the bringer of death and diabolical screams
...From The Shadows of Hades
Curses as old as Hades' shades attest
Comes forth to draw blood from her breast
Immortal rites & ineffable rigour
Rejoices at gains of stealing life's vigour
Torrents of blood it's heart doth desire
A collector of souls as life it transpires
It revels at delivering gasps and last breaths
To carry us vilely toward our sweet deaths
...From The Shadows of Hades
'Centuries wither & grow dimmer with time
Lives lost in the afterglow
And all that waits is hell below
Time and time again
Endless the search toward the end
With no end in sight
Relentless I turn toward the night'
2. ...To the Targovistean Night 06:50
With the coming of the shadows
And the coming of the night
A beastly spectre
Transforms... takes flight
Eyes dart eastward
The scent equals
A threat met with iron
By the Order of the Dragon
And Dracul's might
Unearthly hammer
Scorched earth - no end in sight
The bloodred chalice
Consumed tonight
This night in Targoviste
Immortal Dragon's bite
The ancient voices
By the light of the moon
The blood of many
Prepare to consume
The darkened fortress
And Tepes' rite
Eyes eternity -
Forever... their plight
The howling wolves of fortune
The mark of Cain on his chest
The ineffable fields of emptiness
Grow Dark as the sun sets... Forever!
3. The Triumph of the Flesh Over the Spirit 05:33 instrumental
4. Timeless... Ageless 07:14
Shudder at the blood-stained dance of Death!
Gasp at the sacrifice for Baal!
With blackened wings
On winds of the past
Throughout the ages
And centuries dark
Thou bore witness
To vanished lands
To the reign of lungs
To the death of Gods
Thou, conqueror - of time
Thou, bringer - of death
Thou, consumer - of life
Thou, incarnate - of Gods!
Fear him!
...Timeless... Ageless...
As the centuries crumble
With their ebb and their flow
Unknown to the heavens
Yet feared down below
Thou great devourer
Of the elixir of life
Sets sail on blackened winds
With all consuming might
Thou, conqueror - of time
Thou, bringer - of death
Thou, consumer - of life
Thou, incarnate - of Gods!
Fear him!
From the temple Nabu
To the temple of Shiva
From the shades of Hades
To the Targovistean Night
From the winding road to Kringa
To the rivers of Zarozje
From the mountain tops at Tupanari
Unto Isis Unveiled
From the tempest of Cuntius
To the wretched lands of the Houris
Come forth from the grave
O Bringer of whirlwinds, O bringer of Death
Come forth, from the grave
Strigoja - pi krv
Nachzehrer - trinke blut
Dracule - bea sangele
Vampire - drink thine blood!
5. The Eve of Eternal Sunset 09:14
The Eve Of Eternal Sunset!
Ages and ages
Returning - time and time again
As the sun sets over Europa
And smoke rises from her graves
There is no hope and no pity
As one by one the temples meet their fate
A fate worse than death
Merciless Bloodlust!
The scourge throughout the ages
Outlasting even God himself
The feeder upon the living
The bringer of nightmares & requiems dark
On the Eve of Eternal Sunset
And unholy Blasphemies
The sun sets forever
The temples fall into their deeps
Incarnate of Tepes
The Blood Is The Life!
And with the turning of the seasons
Ages not - progenitor of the night!
Lust in the blood of the living
And of their cowers and their cries
He cares not!
Their fate sealed
Drowning in oceans of black blood!
On the Eve of Eternal Sunset
And unholy Blasphemies
The sun sets forever
The temples fall into their deeps
O Great Old One
Watching over centuries
As they wither
O Great Old Relic
Devourer of Blood and Time
Stalker of histories
Come forth & take thy rightful Throne!
