Possessed by Eternal Shadows

“Awaiting the Black Winter Gods” (Apr. 2003) The winter wind howls Through the branches of dead trees In death’s cold crypts Nocturnal evil sleeps Buried deep within frost-covered mountains In a land of ice and snow He rises from the northern abyss Summoned by the full moon Compelled by the scent Of decaying autumn leaves He stalks throughout the forest Obscured by grey mist He leads forth the shadow horde They are sworn to end Christ’s reign Churches burn beneath the north star As they await… The return of the black winter gods “Possessed by Eternal Shadows" (Apr. 2001) The answers to existence Beheld in ancient wisdom No way to overcome the pain In unbearable shame Enslaved to everlasting pain I kneel before the altar Open to the piercing daggers And the poison of truth The black flame burns within May the dark light burn my eyes Consuming all that I am The return of the demons… A malignant curse Feeding off of my pain Forever enslaved Unholy internal torment… “In His Grim and Mournful Kingdom” (Sept. 1998) As night descends, gazing into the shadows of the moon Nocturnal winds blow, crossing the triangle of flames Spirits of iniquity, beneath the surface of the cold earth Awakened by the dance of eternal shadows With reverence his disciples have carried on Staining the blood of Christians on their swords They are the fist in the face of god Eternal is the war against those of the light Thy legions come forth on black wings of terror In honour of the cloven hoof, in the name of Satan Two thousand years, the throne lies vacant In his grim and mournful kingdom Hail Satanas! Open wide the gates to the infernal realm Send forth the black hordes of the abyss In nomine Satanas The feeble Christians fall Spread your wings and ascend into the nightsky Majestic silhouette in the light of the moon In nomine Satanas Darkness rule this world eternally “Spectre of Nothingness” (Jan. 2010) No life Pale existence A shadow of sorrow Passing through the night Unseen In darkness Mourning spirit Bleeding into the snow Lifeless upon frozen fields Dying Solitude Cursed endless Soul cold eternal Frozen in past times forgotten Forlorn Forever gone No tomorrow From this grave There is no turning back Nothing remains “The Return of the Winter Frost" (Mar. 2004) In the pale blue light Of the rising moon Prominent in the night sky Mountains of ice come alive And move toward realms below To reclaim the bitter wastelands Ravens perch atop dead trees Clouds and lightning in the distance Funeral bells and the ravens’ call Signal the return of the winter frost From northern mountains Come floods of icy black The dark midnight sky opens wide On winds of doom death’s angels fly Surrounded by dismal moonfog The sun is frozen, never to rise As black storms from the north Freeze the world in eternal winter
