Occultations
02:30
|
|||
I, in my own worship
Am exalted...
No Abrahamic father
Nor his son
Will ever be worthy
Of my reverance
My lord is the trance
Of the dark woods
Suspended
Without frustration
|
||||
2. |
Cloak & Sickle
03:05
|
|||
Don synthesis
And throw aside
The robes of decorum
Lo, saturnalia
Lord of misrule
Cloak and sickle
Chaos and sovereignty

Invocation
00:37
|
|||
Come forth, forgotten and disgraced devils!
|
||||
4. |
Celestial Harvest
06:05
|
|||
Creases, moles and craters
Grab my attention
As I pulse into the quasars
The colors change
As we go around
And out again
Down below
The trees are unhelmed
Nature takes its lover
The trees....
Nature is our lover
(A forever dark aeon
And a new age
Misanthropic traditions
Sinister ways
Of the old ones
Our discarded gods)
|

Saturnus
06:09
|
|||
(Hail Saturn)
Storms swarming infinitely
On his surface
Harbor an ageless evil
Revolving around our own sun
Breathing down our filthy necks
The devil glimmers faintly in the night sky...
Lost in lore
Dies irae, dies illa
Solvet Saeclum in favilla
Teste Satan cum sibylla.
Quantos tremor est futurus
Quando Vindex est venturus
Cuncta stricte discussurus.
Dies irae, dies illa!

Flame Tongues Descending
04:57
|
|||
The sun shines down on us to no avail
For it fails to penetrate our souls
Wherein we harbor a night without moon or stars
Let the flaming tongues descend
And bring about that black light's will
|
||||
8. |
In the Age of Sin
01:13
|
|||
Devoid of dogma
But ready to carve
To defy the transient
Stab forth with penetrative will
Strain every leash
Running down the mountain
Of the fallen man
To stand before your killing gaze
And now we travel flame to flame
In the age of sin
|
||||
9. |
||||
In my silent suffering
I look to the serpent
With it's tail in it's mouth
Shielded,
Solitary...
I praise the dark gods with my heart and soul
I await the final battle and the bloodshed that will come
|
||||

Mistweaver
03:28
|
|||
Chaotic systems, dark traditions
Magicks in the wrong hands
Mistweaver
|
||||
11. |
||||
I've traveled all my life,
with this mask on
Ten directions,
Ten centuries
(Individuality finds a collective integration and becomes lost in lore)
Misanthropic paths
Drive me to worship
I look to the stars...
I, alone in my own worship
I am not insane
I am exalted
(In removing one's mask of man;
That failed species
That melancholy wreck...
One must look to the skies
I look to the stars
]Manifest Strength]
The serpent will guide us
[Awake and ascend])

Stargazer's Lament
05:55
|
|||
Every king a bastard's son
Every man a liar
Ivy creeping
Down the walls
Celestial gardens
Of splendor, disorder
Discord in motion
&
A senseless journey
On which I've learned nothing

"Wall Painted Black excels at breaking a dismal mood down to its base elements, and then rearranging the pieces to a remarkably evocative degree."
