Show Lyrics

Under scarlet evening skies I sigh

Opening my undead weary eyes

Ready to walk into the night


As the final light of the sun recedes

I catch the scent of her

My solemn dream, my only need


She sees past my disease

My lack of humanity

Making this curse feel as real

As a dream and it would seem

This is the seductress for me


I reach from the dark

Her I seek to fulfill my heart

Rising as the dusk

I give in to my lust


I beg: "Set me free

Of this passion tearing me

Encompassing all light

Like the coming of the night..."


Finally we meet

Hungering our darkest needs

Gently she disrobes her seams

And instantly my soul is redeemed


In her I trust my never ending lust

From lust to dusk...

Show Lyrics

Candles flicker guiding me

Through the rusted iron gates

Licking in the soaring winds

Dancing with enchanting grace


The ground beneath my feet heaves

Shifting, rifting, splayed

As I move along the undead throng

Beneath me in their graves


I see glimpses of them

From their monoliths and tombs

Their claws grate heavily against

The ancient marbled ruins


I hear their sinister laughter

Echo through the starlit night

I see their shifting shapes and shadows

Sweeping through the isles


Creeping through the cemetery

Passing by the burial mounds

The wind carries ghastly laments

Whispering their depraved sounds


Peering through the cobwebs

And the twisted branches of the trees

Stumbling across the demonic rites

On the night of a Samhain feast


Scaled Sins tear at my skin

Passing me through many hands

Taking me and taunting me

Preparing their torturous plans


Skulls litter their lair

Alongside rats and broken bones

No matter how loud my screams resound

I cannot surpass their moans


The candles are snuffed at once

With a final tempestuous blow

They clamber with their cobwebbed toes

Into their abode below


Sacrificed to Devils

I see their festive fires light

Frightening figures of fervent Evil

Ushering my demise


Congregated Demons

With red eyes stare right through me

Chanting dark and twisted words

At I, the Samhain feast...


...I, the Samhain feast!

Show Lyrics

Bleakness churning in the dark

The skies above me dismal and stark

Betraying the earth with icy rain

Washing away all but the searing pain


This midwinter eve

Before the beauty of nature took her leave

Forsaking every moment of the past

To the barren blizzard of a stone-cold heart


Ice-cold blasts burning my skin

Cannot compare to the aching within

Foolishly searching through the drift

To find the way back to that perfect wish


That midwinter eve

Before the beauty of nature took her leave

Forsaking every moment of the past

To the barren blizzard of a stone-cold heart


Weakness showing in the cracks

The never-ending winter recedes back

Thawing the untainted world beneath

From a thousand years of nightmarish sleep


Those midwinter eves

When the beauty of nature took her leave

Forsaking every moment of our past

For the emptiness of a broken heart

...my heart

  • This demo contained no new music, just previous songs from demos past that the band wanted newer, better recordings of.
