1.Paths
Beneath
firmaments
darkened
eternal
dying
a thousand times
since
forever
forgotten
sons
of ages
past
turn
woeful
faces
upward
What once was
will be again.
What can be
and all that has been.
A voice
on the wind
to foretell
darkness
arising.
2.Jarl's Kin
A faded moon may seeming shine
On the stone of my life's ending.
Centuries have passed since the night,
More than smoke from my flesh reached the sky.
A single breath to the ages of the sky
Was the passing of the age of the sun.
In the cold nights where once was known
The mysteries of time and power.
Only shaded dreams might now remember
Beyond our summons-in the realm of eternal.
A fated moon may seeming shine
On the last of those who will suffer.
Whispered in the trees, our tale
Completed in the last hour of sorrowful darkness.
A weary sword let fall to earth-forgotten
In the passing of the age of the sun.
I pass out of knowledge here as then
Ever to become as I once was-silent
Keys were lost to the realm of eternal
The mysteries of time and power.
And the living were led into the light.
3.Journey of the Unseen Wrath
In the darkest depths
of a forest as old as time
a shadow came alive.
After many full moons
a cold wind took the spirit,
drifting unseen above
mountains of darkness
and forests of shade.
A distance
not of time or space.
A distance
of all and nowhere.
To the forest
The forest of
our darkest fears.
our fears of the light.
In the starless sky
only empty light can be seen
but no light can ever
touch this existence
so great is its malice.
Fear follows its journey past
mountains of darkness
and forests of shade.
Thousands of eyes cannot see
as the dread silently encircles them.
Their hopeless souls are broken
in the cold, starless night,
there will be no hope for a tomorrow.
The vile darkness is deepening over
mountains of darkness
and forests of shade.
4.Nothingness
A clearing
Beyond the tallest trees
A clearing
Where nothing lives
The sky darkens
The earth burns black
The air made heavy
with human death.
A scream
far beyond keeping
A scream
of pain and sorrow
The mist descends
The massgrave fills
The dream of this world
fades from knowledge
A blind man
Hears the horror
A blind man
Aged by burden
The first of many
The last to hear
The blind man continues
on his path to nothingness
5.Sorrowful Journey of the Ages
The sky is clearing
an empty light falls
where darkness will allow
that even flesh can feel.
Blood of posthumous splendor
condemned to fall unknown.
Nothing can now behold
what died then.
As the legends
are no longer told.
As the songs
are no longer sung.
As the wisdoms
are forgotten.
As the paths join the forest.
Trees remember and mountains recall.
Yet minds cannot behold
That darkness lies buried there.
As the legends
are no longer told.
As the songs
are no longer sung.
As the wisdoms
are forgotten.
6.Onward
On the fields of the final war,
no light shines.
Silence is everything;
Silence of human pain.
Darkness becomes, where
horizons seek the firmaments.
No screams to betray
as oblivion falls into us.
No light will ever reach our eyes,
memories won't recall.
Shivering bodies in empty darkness,
Shivering bodies of human pain.
Held in a past that once was,
where new horizons began.
Emptiness will become
as if nothing ever was.
Fallen through Dark Ages past;
centuries of wakeful torment.
Voiceless bodies so alone in pain,
Voiceless fields of human death,
The forest of our ageless fear
has overgrown the unknown past.
The shade of the many trees,
hides the sight of a distant sun.
What would be beginnings, without an end？
7.Beyond the Moon and Beneath the Stars
I ascend
Drifting only as thought
Beyond
All that mortals can know.
All light begins to fade
the mysteries of darkness unfolds
after so many dark nights
Death is my morning.
The sky begins to open
I complete my eternity.
All journeys have endings
My journey is not yet over.
To the Castle in the sky
that can only be seen
When no tomorrows
will ever come.
Ages will come and go
the Castle remains forever
though less behold the gate.
With each passing year.
8.Everything Ends
What never dies, is that, which was never born.
9.Towards Ragnarok
Thus it is related in Voluspaoud blows Heimdall, his horn aloft.
Odin speaks with Mim's head.
The ash Yggdrasil shakes as it stands,
The ancient tree groans and the giant gets free.
What is it with the Aesir？
What is it with the Elves？
All giantland resounds.
The Aesir are in council
Dwarves groan before rock doorways
Frequenters of rock - walls.
Know you yet of what？
Hyrm drives from the east
Holding his shield before him,
Iormungand writhes in giant rage
The serpent churns the waves
The eagles screech with joy
Darkly pale, it tears corpses
Naglfar is loose bark sails from the east
Across the sea will come Muspell's troops with Loki at the helm
All that monstrous brood
Are there with the wolf
In company with them is Byleist's brother.
Surt travels from the south
With the stick destroyer (fire)
Shines from his sword the sun
Of the gods of the slain rock cliffs crash
And troll-wives are abroad
Heroes tread the road of Hel
And heaven splits then Hlin's second sorrow
Comes to pass
As Odin goes to fight the wolf
And Beli's bright slayer against Surt
There shall fall Frigg's delight Odin's son goes to fight the
wolf
Vidar on his way
Against the slaughterous beast
With his hand he lets his blade pierce
The son of Hverdungs heart
So his father is avenged goes the great son of Hlodyn
Dying to the serpent who shrinks from no shame
And all the heroes shall then leave the world
When Midgard's protector strikes his wrath!
The sun will go dark
Earth sink in the sea
From heaven tanish bright stars Steam surges
And life's fires flame
Flickers against the very sky.
