Before The Cataclysm
(专辑: The Agony & Ecstasy Of Watain - 2022)
Ready or not Will come to be known by us all Where leads the
winding path Over tar fields aflame, since Eden's fall Cross hidden cracks and furrows Where fiery currents surge Restlessly, like mercury Spilling forth through the
ruins of a
barren world Thus, you shall stand A
naked child before the
cataclysm For ready or not, come it will Dark is the
deep that you fall into Endless, the
void that expands from under you Now the
gods claim their sacrifice And the
devil his due Strange glows the
night, but fear not its shadows They've come to awaken the
flame that's asleep within you A
cross has been carved in the
place where we go to die There they await, to draw every secret from you And the
blood of thy heart And the
blood of thy heart Then you shall see it clear at last As the
mist unveils the
moor Here ends the
charted lands The
path beyond is made visible The
time has come to dare the
dunes Of endless oceans vast No guiding stars to lead you now Through the
labyrinth of our pasts An edgeless map, a
nameless space Such is the
province of our demise Yet on it goes, this eternal voyage Above a
sunken paradise Yet many more kingdoms must fall before You may find your rest there, on the
other shore Well I
fare for the
furthest beacon Fare for the
glow Bright, like the
light that you go into Life is a
dream that is fading away from you Fare now to what's real, fare now to what's true Yours is the
night, yours is the
shadow Yours is the
star that forever shall burn in the
dark A
cross has been carved in the
place where we go to die And for all those that go there with fire in heart, we shall kneel And bless their journey Sail on, sail on Into the
night Sail on, sail on Into the
light Sail to the
souls that shine there Tonight, I
stood out by the
sea And saw the
seventh lighthouse glare The
yonder beckons, the
twilight calls And one day, I'll meet you there Where unchained spirits, rampant, soar In starless heavens, like before The
cataclysm, in timeless time When God was not forevermore
