Dark Lyrics: The Dawn No More Rises

Band: Dark Funeral
Album: The Secrets Of The Black Arts [1996]
Song: The Dawn No More Rises

When darkness is upon us, and skies had turned to black
When blood rains from darkened skies and crying angels die
When the sun has burned its last rays and light no more remains
When tears of god stains the ground the dark age has arrived

Lighting strikes the realm of light
Angels burn in flames of fire
Storms from hell embrace the skies
As blackwinged hordes arrive
Infernal winds
Come forth from the byss
Satan rides the winds of wrath
Across the blackened sky

The dawn no more rises
Across the darkened horizons
Light no more shines
Over the kingdom of damnation

When shadows rise upon the earh and the horned one had returned
When light has turned to darkness and heaven has been burned

Lighting strikes the realm of light
Angels burn in flames of fire
Storms from hell embrace the skies
As blackwinged hordes arrive
Infernal winds
Come forth from the byss
Satan rides the winds of wrath
Across the blackened sky

When firestorms consume the earth
And ashes is what's left
Everlasting darkness
Forever shall remain
When the sun no more rises
Over the darkened horizons
When damnation is eternal
The dark age has arrived

The dawn no more rises
Across the darkened horizons
Light no more shines
The dark age has arrived

Dark Lyrics: Tales From Eternal Dusk

Band: Dark Fortress
Album: Tales From Eternal Dusk [2001]
Song: Tales From Eternal Dusk

As darkness falls for the last time
I awake from my apparently infinite sleep
A silver full moon glows on this winter night
Waning into oblivion

... and I follow the northern storms
that bring dusk upon the icy landscapes
... and the storms lead me to majestic forests
lakes and mountains I've never seen before

Melancholy within seems eternal
As I walk through the undergrowth
Of these endless woods
But then I see her sleeping under the dark trees
- my beloved nocturnal queen
And the children of the night watch over her
Like the moon watches over the night

As I get closer to her she awakens
From her majestic sleep
As she embraces me again
I feel her magical attraction

Together we walk the path of salvation
And together with the wolves
She sings her sweet serenades
And with these, her majestic serenades

She reaches for my black, bleeding heart
Which only beats for her
She kisses me with her lips of fire
And this kiss covers my heart
With a dismal shade of sadness

And her hair of gold, waving in the wind
Seems to me like the star-covered horizon
Her sweet art is the key to my solitary heart
And together we open the gate to infinity
Into the dusk-impregnated land of dreams,
where our spirits shall rest eternally

I look into her eyes,
knowing that this moment won't
last eternally
... and the sun never rises, for she is
the forgotten flame
engulfing my heart
... and in the black wind her shadow
fades away
into the melancholy of the night
And again my heart is touched
by an endless solitary darkness

Dark Lyrics: Towers Of Frozen Dusk

Band: Evoken
Album: Shades of Night Descending (Demo) [1994]
Song: Towers Of Frozen Dusk

Runic blade of crystal skies
Arise the winter of blackest frost
Through the northwinds mournful chant
In frozen mists and dying light

Abyssic darkness descends on funeral wings....

Ancient towers rise before me
Like blades in the midwinter's sky
I kneel before the gates of black
In the etherial fire of dying sunsets

Within the blackest valleys
In Etah's silent grace
frozen moon , cursed lands
Visions of eternal winter

A vision of dark ages yet to come.....

Diabolical winterwinds
A spectral dance of beauty and frost
My journey to the Northlands
A return to evil ways
