To halls of knowledge we've been taken in For learning motions of naming eternity Bells were ringing, we've done it thru We're all ignorant, can never get the truth How easy to draw an Infinity Sign But to handle, it's beyond our mind An Infinity Sign What we've summoned is greater than we take Close and open symbolic spheres again I feel the narrowness of grids I'm in Upon command I keep straightening How easy to draw an Infinity Sign But to handle, it's beyond our mind A-a-ah Newborn things they reach me late I've departured, still staring at that lonesome place I turn my back against tomorrow's gates How easy to draw an Infinity Sign But to handle, it's beyond our mind An Infinity Sign It's beyond our mind An Infinity Sign

Cobra B.A.T. 03:52
I recall the past we walked the road countless times Now you're overgrown, for me they're the same old miles Recall the landings, I fell on the battleground I'm made to stand it, not to cry Wars are over, are over now No more aging, ever resting, my work is done Wars are over, are over now So abandoned in the drawer, my work is done In the backyard I've been ordinary dead And resurrected with new roles to play them In the heat of their game I broke my hand How I miss, how I miss to be on demand Wars are over, are over now No more aging, ever resting, my work is done Wars are over, are over now So abandoned in the drawer, my work is done My fate has come It should end here before he finds my heart It should end here before he finds my heart It should end here before he finds my heart It should end here before he finds my heart Wars are over, are over now No more aging, ever resting, my work is done Wars are over, are over now So abandoned in the drawer, my work is done

(Originally by Darkthrone, lyrics by Fenriz 1992) Transilvanian Hunger... cold... soul Your hands are cruel... to haunt... to haunt The mountains are cold... soul... soul... Careful... pale... forever at Night Take me... can't you feel the Call Embrace Me Eternally in your daylight slumber To be Draped by the Shadow of your Morbid Palace oh, Hate Living... The only heat is warm blood So Pure... So Cold Transilvanian Hunger So Pure... So Cold Hail to the True, intense vampires A story made for Divine fulfillment To be the ones breathing a Wind of Sorrow Sorrow and fright the dearest catharsis Beautiful Evil Self to be the Morbid Count A part of a Pact that is delightfully immortal Beautiful Evil Self to be the Morbid Count A part of a Pact that is delightfully immortal So Pure... So Cold Transilvanian Hunger So Pure... So Cold So Pure... So Cold Transilvanian Hunger So Pure... So Cold So Pure... So Cold So Pure... So Cold

Far Enough 04:54
See that feeble shine slowly glowin' up Cross the evening sky Once we called it 'Home' when we walked the Earth But I moved behind Now it's far enough To feel safe under a weaker Sun Now it's far enough To die down n' be an only one Too much time I spent, too many bites I got In the mouth of time Avoid misleading turns and foresee unknown ways I searched for hills to climb Now it's far enough To feel safe under a weaker Sun Now it's far enough To die down n' be an only one Desolated imaginary land Tomorrow means the incoming of Lack Will the desert find my self alive? Rusted plains hear the farewell prays to None Desolated imaginary land Tomorrow means the incoming of Lack Will the desert find my self alive? Rusted plains hear the farewell prays to None Venus - a view in blur Remains of plans held up for ever Awake to the morning when all just were Venus - a view in blur Remains of plans held up for ever Awake to the morning when all just were

Deepest regrets - forbidden is to fade away Keep fillin' gaps - for speeding up my age Deepest regrets - forbidden is to fade I watch our towers grow From here down they almost wrap the sky I can't wait when they finally get done But we know it will never ever come The old town... The order... I doubt our worn-out roads Could the battling of cracks and patches end? I was eager to find as the unfailing runs out As disgust bloomed out of my heart The old town - oh it never gets done The patience - in the lingering of time The order - shall be only without us Of these four I'll be the first to leave off Deepest regrets - forbidden is to fade away Keep fillin' gaps - for speeding up my age Deepest regrets - forbidden is to fade The old town... The patience... The order... Of these four I'll be the first to leave off

Awaken Out 03:20
Secret artifacts, all hail the soulside Seen only at night time, now they meet the daylight To bring on Blackness straight from a dreamland Where I just returned from, they followed me back Hide the sunbeams for a deathlike state Retreat into oversleep Gift is each and every day Gift is each and every day Awaken out from here When childhood turns to funereally open grave Childhood turns to funereally open grave Secret artifacts of overflowing unreal Representing the subconscious last will Slumber holds my hand, slumber takes me there In fever of zero, in fever to fulfill Hide the sunbeams for a deathlike state Retreat into oversleep Gift is each and every day Gift is each and every day Awaken out from here Awaken out from here Among the passed away Awaken out from here Among the passed away Gift is each and every day Awaken out from here Gift is each and every day Awaken out from here When childhood turns to funereally open grave Childhood turns to funereally open grave

Railway is losing, so do my dreams A lake sends that sound from the other side I gaze in the black, the unfolding black Shapes flashing for my open eyes Come and go astray In wonders' stream Into Stormclouds of a shaded horizon Wasted away by Vanishing Slow Stormclouds of a shaded horizon Wasted away by Vanishing Slow Sink back to silence, it's finally gone Terrified screams of iron lines The sleepless on seats were blinded alike I just imagined their gliding lights Come and go astray In wonders' stream Far beyond the trench Arcane togetherness Of Ancient Ones Of Ancient Ones Into stormclouds of a shaded horizon Wasted away by Vanishing Slow Stormclouds of a shaded horizon Wasted away by Vanishing Slow Wasted away by Vanishing Slow

Fever Riser 03:37
Why am I going round and round? Grant me a pond to calm it down Shivering shudders, we meet again Relieve the therm of thirty nine Waving on my mind Waving on my mind Fever riser blanket strings are conquering me infinitely And it seems I've lost the fight I shut my eyes and raise in flight A bitter fragrance welcomes the Cold Am I really shrinking, where are my senses? For an instance the world appears in bold Waving on my mind Waving on my mind Fever riser blanket strings are conquering me infinitely Behold the final aim Defeat those burning flames Mercury is towering so high A waterfall to enter Shall ease the heat inside A waterfall to enter It seems I've lost the fight Waving on my mind Waving on my mind Fever riser blanket strings It seems I've lost the fight Waving on my mind Waving on my mind Fever riser blanket strings It seems I've lost the fight

On a ladder up to the firmament She's nearing the top Balancing over us below Again she's out of stock Reach the clouds, into the fog An offering they bleed Heavens mining paint For her fantasies She gathers up the mist She's opening our skies Her fate is to draw the missing beat of hearts In a chamber full of stillborn ones She paints them in dismay I force myself to believe They're just slumbering Too horrid for my tenderness Too horrid I can't take A hundred drying ashen faces Using only grey She gathers up the mist She's opening our skies Her fate is to draw the missing beat of hearts She's the paintress She's the paintress She's the paintress She gathers up the mist She's opening our skies She's the paintress Her fate is to draw the missing beat of hearts, o-o-oh... She gathers up the mist, she's opening our skies Her fate is to draw the missing beat of hearts She gathers up the mist, she's opening our skies Her fate is to draw the missing beat of hearts

See Me Out 03:47
To the land of frost on a drifting flake of ice With shattered heart and seeming smiles Can't stop the meltdown, escape on hurtling waves Can't hold the Spring back, weeping carbon tears 'See me out' he told Alone you shall retrace See me out, I step on the Winterway 'See me out' he told Alone you shall retrace See me out, I step on the Winterway I step on the Winterway Don't let the searing Sun kill me drop by drop Where to hide anymore? (anymore) To the river, to the roaring flood Instead of holdin' on Vacated just as he lied at us So proudly he's gone 'See me out' he told Alone you shall retrace See me out, I step on the Winterway 'See me out' he told Alone you shall retrace See me out, I step on the Winterway

Sempiternal 03:34
Oh I'm starving for a sleep sempiternal Narcotize me in the way I mean now And when every single turn of highway Eighty Five's Behind my feet, on my own I arrived To the building where I've been It's abandoned and empty as always in summertime. But where's the key It's registered as usual for my stay Opening a room, all door's the same Majestic Place of Saturday Oh I'm starving for a sleep sempiternal Narcotize me in the way I mean now Sleep sempiternal Take the list eventually, check it over once again Clear conscience, fragrant lilies stand in line In perfect order, a full chamber I won't rest in peace without They're on the wane, a pillow calls my name A final yawn to celebrate Calm and still I'll be To lay down on Nothing, oh... dreams are for the living Sleep sempiternal Sleep sempiternal Oh I'm starving for a sleep sempiternal Narcotize me in the way I mean now Sleep sempiternal Sleep sempiternal

Behold the walls went way too cold No one stayed, this castle's filled with pains untold Behold the footprints of the stray Followin' an astral sign led him to betray Passage to the Vain Broken out of nowhere A mystic only one A leader through the icefield Shining up in the sky When no strength left to march It descended to make him warm Was it a guardian angel Or a demon born to harm? Towards the Mist, no horizon apperars To keep on goin', it's insane Whereabout now? They're so far On a Passage to the Vain It was a tale I heard 'n after all I see Whispering of that night Been true, came real Passage to the Vain Passage to the Vain
