Storms
Of death
From the North
The rage of plagues persists
Slay
The whores of war
With Iron pounding fists
Once
The weeping ends
The killings will begin
I
Drink
The blood of gods
In hallowed halls of sin
Rape the priest
With Iron Force
Burn the church
With Iron Force
I, Destroyer
From the North
Hooves
Of war
From the east
Swallowing sands of time
Beaten
Dead horse rider
Cosmic winds divine
Blood
Oath Sacrifice
Blessed crown of scars
One Eye
Seer of all
Ruler of the distant stars
Rape the priest
With Iron Force
Burn the church
With Iron Force
I, Destroyer
From the North

Waking The Fates
06:38

The runes of fate were cast
By Norns that dwell far down
Below the sacred well
The dunes of night did fetter
As the chains did so bind
Wolves of the funeral pyre
The ashes of salvation
Blanket the impotence of your heart
The ashes of salvation
Blanket the impotence of your heart
Waking the Fates
Waking the Fates
Beating beneath the thing that you are
Is the only thing that knows your salvation
Beating beneath the thing that you are
Is the only thing that knows your salvation
The Blade of Doom was thrust
Deep down in to your chest
By the Angel of Death
The winds of change did suffer
As you burn now with the
Master of your demise
The ashes of salvation
Blanket the impotence of your heart
The ashes of salvation
Blanket the impotence of your heart
Waking the Fates
Waking the Fates

Born To The Horns

Torn from the womb
They wished you well
Cursed to this earth
To forever dwell
Hail the white queen
Crippled wing she fell
Sworn to the one
From gone beyond
Dressed to be blessed
In blood and brawn
Hail the dark prince
Praise eternal dawn
One by one
We will take you
Into the burning mists of fire
Born to the horns
Which he adorns
Rise morning star
Bury me in flames
God of this age
Infectious plagues
Born of rape and rage
Bless us in flames
Son of moonset
Beyond the veils
A third of the stars
Up upon his tail
Serpent of the sleep
Forever hails
Father of the never
Forever shines
Basking in flames
The master lies
He is the light
Which has left your eyes
One by one
We will take you
Into the burning mists of fire
Born to the horns
Which he adorns
Rise morning star
Bury me in flames
God of this age
Infectious plagues
Born of rape and rage
Bless us in flames

Sails Of My Father
06:50
|
|
||
|
These barren nights
Bring not wish for rest
This heart is cold
And yearns for death
On sullen waves
We drift for days
These hands are scarred
And blood is greyed
The Sails of My Father
Will Carry me on forever
Song of the dead wind
Dried the blood
Upon the Sails of my Father
Your memory
Is salt in my wounds
From distant days
The ghost of past feuds
These eyes are tired
And dream of the end
The ashes I leave
Will sing on the wind
The Sails of My Father
Will Carry me on forever
Song of the dead wind
Dried the blood
Upon the Sails of my Father

Before the walls of the great deceiver
We shine the beast with tears of bliss
Hands of doom applaud for the choir
As the chorus of the dying star sings
Tremble at the feet of dying giants
Enslaved in the arms of the damaged one
Surrender to the encompassing void
Break the chains of life's suffering
Standing on the shores of oblivion
Watching the stars of Orion fall
Wretched was I at the helm of its gaze
Sunken down deep in the gallows of my heart
Before the walls of the great deceiver
We shine the beast with tears of bliss
Hands of doom applaud for the choir
As the Chorus of the dying star sings
Tremble at the feet of dying giants
Enslaved in the arms of the damaged one
Surrender to the encompassing void
Break the chains of life's suffering
Blinded by the rays of eternity
Burning the cloak of astral planes
Sullen was I at the end of my days
Trapped in the sight of the archers aim

Thirst Of The Tyrant
04:15
|
|
||
|
At the gates
The Tyrant awaits
Born of war
From the distant shores
Sorcerer of Doom
Casting down the runes
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Brings forth bitter seasons
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Brings forth suffering and pain
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Brings forth bitter seasons
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Taste the rage
Of the Tyrants blade
King of pain
Ruler of the slain
Crucify the priest
Conjure forth the beast
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Brings forth bitter seasons
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Brings forth suffering and pain
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Brings forth bitter seasons
The Thirst of the Tyrant
Thirst of the Tyrant
Rage the Invader
Born from the dying of the light
Far beyond the screams in the night
Down beneath the crypts of the dead
Crawls the festering of his rage
Thirst of the Tyrant
Rage the Invader
Thirst of the tyrant
Born from the dying of the light
Far beyond the screams in the night
Down beneath the crypts of the dead
Crawls the festering of his rage

Thus Wept The Sea Widow
05:37
|
|
||
|
Bring me the sun upon your hazel rain
Drown me in sorrows and failing winds
Bring me the sea under tortured waves
Curse me in torment and endless days
Once then and again it shall begin
She is the one
In the beckoning fog
She is the one
In the drifting mist
She is the one
In the beckoning fog
She is the one
In the drifting mist
Thus wept the sea widow on the shores of the dead
Thus wept the sea widow on the shores of the dead
Draw down the moon with your haunted mist
Beat me with hammers and pounding thunder
Draw down the runes under twisted staves
Hex me in rituals and desolate ways
Once then and again it shall begin
She is the one
In the beckoning fog
She is the one
In the drifting mist
She is the one
In the beckoning fog
She is the one
In the drifting mist
Thus wept the sea widow on the shores of the dead
Thus wept the sea widow on the shores of the dead

Dawn of the Necromancer
Traveler of the crimson tide
Birth of the endless reaping
Diviner of the graveless dead
East to the raven chamber
North of the dragon's tomb
Dusk of the ancient slumber
Breeds in the filth of her womb
Deliver to the master
Saboteur from the burning divide
Drown in the waves of sorrow
Falling with the bridges of time
East to the raven chamber
North of the dragon's tomb
Dusk of the ancient slumber
Breeds in the filth of her womb
From The Bridge Below
Pull you under to the slaughter
From The Bridge Below
Pull you under to the slaughter
Gods of War
Knelt before
The Black Tide Rider
From The Bridge Below
Gods of War
Knelt before
The Black Tide Rider
From The Bridge Below
Gods of War
Knelt before
The Black Tide Rider
From The Bridge Below
The Bridge Below
The Bridge Below
Pulls you under
The Bridge Below

Three Winters
03:55

|

|
Drag the waters for Jormungandr
Serpent master from the darkened depths below
Hunt the wolves of the three winters
As the sound of the Gjallarhorn rings true
The gods begin to laugh in my haunted dreams
As the wolves consume the sun and the moon
The hanging man sways to the rhythm of the tides
As the stars begin to fade
Burn the fields of resurrection
Final battle of gods and the risen dead
Kill the hound of filth and misery
Break the chains of this old man's written fate
The gods begin to laugh in my haunted dreams
As the wolves consume the sun and the moon
The hanging man sways to the rhythm of the tides
As the stars begin to fade

Warriors in the hall
Now listen well
For what I have to say
Among the blasts of shields
In battle fell
Down on that fateful day
Ride the wolf of wealth and plunder
On in to this night of death
Swords born of steel and thunder
Fell down on your very breathe
There
To the table I invited the wolf
For I knew he was an easy bet
There
To the cellar I invited the devil
For I knew he wasn't drunk yet
There
I came for warmth and left just corpses
Bearers of the blade
Now holding fast
For this horse brings war
Amidst the rain of spears
Flanking the mast
We still reached the shore
Through the fields of corpses and woe
We rode our steeds to victory
Over the lands of ice and snow
On through to the eyes of the sea
Bringer of the White Christ
Slay the pale horse
Thrust the sword in deep
Father of the dimming lights
Bless the children of the sleep
There
To the table I invited the wolf
For I knew he was an easy bet
There
To the cellar I invited the devil
For I knew he wasn't drunk yet
There
I came for warmth and left just corpses
There
The hoar frost froze deep into the hinterland of my heart
The serpent's path is made of greed
We rode the shores of never spring
All dead men must burn
Ashes to the sea
The weeping cloud stands alone
The sea breaks the strings of kin
All dead men must burn
Ashes to the sea

Waves Of Ægir
09:41
|
|
||
|
We left home from Trøndelag
Headed for the shores of Northumbrian fog
We sailed west under Óðinns grin
Far beyond the reaches of the sinister winds
The devil lives in the deep blue sea
And she sails on the winds of blasphemy
Under the Waves of Ægir
In the halls of the dead and drowned
In the hall of the Golden Fire
Deep with in the drink of whales
Deaf to the screams of the summoning gales
In thee arms of the nine daughters
Dead and bloated in funeral waters
Under the waves of the golden lit sea
We drink with gods and we drink to thee
Under the Waves of Ægir
In the halls of the dead and drowned
In the hall of the Golden Fire
In to the wake of the long lost gulls
We ride on the ocean of broken skulls
The Northern Fates will sing their odes
Down by the tree which the Allfather rode
Sister of the sun does bring her charm
The wind hugs the heart with cold dead arms
Under the Waves of Ægir
In the halls of the dead and drowned
In the hall of the Golden Fire
We rode hooves of thundering fire
Our hearts were heavy and our fate was dire
Brother of night and of the sea
The tempest season brings such misery
Tales will be told of the storms that we rode
On the waves of fortune on the seas of gold
Under the Waves of Ægir
In the halls of the dead and drowned
Under the Waves of Ægir
In the hall of the Golden Fire
