Noctem

power
Praying for cruel heavenly saints

Pyres of fire burn thousands
Souls purified with the flames of hell

Ministers of greed, ambassadors of the cross
Golden cloaks and sermons about children dying of hunger
Their lives are turned off
Like a multitude of living lamps

Queen of misery light my way through sin

I've inhaled the vapors of hell itself
The moon turns pale before me
Look at my eyes!
I would like to storm the heavens and look for answers
The bright star of sadness hangs over the world
To give justice and death

Contemplate the face of bitter pain
That envelops the world of aridity

Walking through the black temples of disaster
Where light has turned into darkness

2. Auto-Da-Fé

A bitter confession plucked from her torn lips
Her words announced the end of her suffering and life

Auto-da-fé, ritual of public punishment
Auto-da-fé, burning at the stake

Yellow sackcloth, a procession in front of a court
No tears can reconcile with the cross

Using the sword to appase the enemies of faith

Consumed by the fire in an orgy of screams
Desperation, pain and suffering, enveloping her in flames
The fire melt her white flesh turning it black
Shedding her young body from her bones

Her body fat dripping from her corpse over hot coals
The wicker woman burned embracing her sins
Her yellow hair in flames is cradled by the black smoke
Teeth yoke from her burned face, showing an expression of horror

Being transtormed in thin powder
Thite ashes to ashes, thrown to the wind

3. The Submission Discipline

Alere flammam peritatis et lux in tenebris lucet,
Da mihi animas, caetera tolle, fiat lustitia et pereat mundus

Crowned as graceful instrument of God
An angel of holy judgement
Scourge of the blasphemer
Extirpator of confessions, eradicator of sins
Broken bones, agony melodies, suffering at the gallows

Sinner horribly disfigured for the rest of his life
Drowning in their own blood expiring their sins

De inquisitoribus lords of the pyre
De inquisitoribus against human sacrilege
De inquisitoribus of depraved souls
De inquisitoribus of heretical thought

Towers of lifeless bodies rise up
From the world to the feet of your lord

Redeemer of deceased bodies
Tormentors of human souls
Damned faces of leering and drooling
That lack of the last breath of life

De inquisitoribus collectors of confessions
De inquisitoribus punishers of heretics
De inquisitoribus of adultery
De inquisitoribus of depravity

Messiahs of human agony, exercising divine will

4. Blind Devotion

Let me die, I raise myself to a new life
I want to be like death and bury my sins
I am a blasphemous creature of God
Behold what you have made me become

No man should bear such a heavy weight
On his shoulders, my penance is carved in my flesh

Do not fear the battle of men in the earth
The real war is being waged in heaven
There's no light in this impious soul
All that inhabits me is corrupted

This life is a paradox, amirror of confusion
I am like a candle without oxygen
I am a spirit lost in my latent hate
My wings are thorns, my eyes are lifeless
I am cold as the horns of death

5. The Dark One

Oh lord! Why you leave me?
I am your humble servant
Why you judge me like vermin?
I feel your divine look of scorn

Breaking Wheel Pear of Anguish, Judas Cradle, the Rack

Praying for mercy in disobedience to saint will
Without a fair trial, without absolution
Against transgression to the holy law
Clergy like hyenas, behold with satisfaction the suffering
Lucero "The Dark One", collector of martyrs for the pyre

The populace is horrified beholding his divine assignment

In the cold path to the scaffold
Shouting they curse the name of God
Eviscerated martyrs decaying
Insane devotion to the Lord

6. Haeresis

Behold puritans! Your demented lord,
Amorphous creature-god, master of the lies, the last hope of the naïve

Eunuchs legions, unwary and fool are added to your ranks
No more glorious days, you are a flash of deception in a sky ablaze

Ad nauseam! Lord of the weak
The heavens will crumble again
Like ashes in the eyes
Burning flame of self-deceit

Open wide the gates of hell
The heavens will serve at your feet
Be my light, guide my hands
Be the strength in my will

I am a blasphemy, a fragile mortal
An abomination to the eyes of god
I walk on the land with feet of fire
To be myself is my own law

Eunuchs legions, unwary and fool are added to your ranks
No more glorious days, you are a flash of deception in a sky ablaze

7. Whispers Of The Ancient Gods

The land murmurs to me in the solitude of the night
The stars behold me like frozen eyes in the sky

The cold air cuts my face like blades
The moonlight shows itself through the leaves of trees

Older than the last of the masters that governed the earth
They will return to reign where men do

The wind moaned their voices like screams in hell
Desolating my soul that is crawling through a frozen plain

My soul was taken where the ancient rits were howled once
There the sun is weak and with less shine than a star
Among piles of bones they spoke to me about the corruption of souls
Showing me the grace of primeval rain before the dawn of men

Is a shameful secret, freedom isn't made for everyone
They'll try to tame you with faith and the cross

Confront your way with courage, stay strong
The unyielding spirit never kneels down

8. Conjuring Degradation And Morbidity

The pestilence covers the ossuary like a thick fog
Already nobody sobs for this unhappy soul
She and she alone can give voice to the dead

Supine and open, his intestines scattered
Over the whole table, illuminated by oil lamps

Cadaver fluids sprinkle his hands
The dexterous dancing of the needle over the mutilated body
Joining shreds of flesh

The dark secret art of necromany
Conjuring degradation and mrobidity

Inert corpse, cold like a stone
Reveals the secrets of the beyond
Buried in mystery
Death doesn't lie

Horribly disfigured face
Animated by scavenging worms
Modeling livid corpse
Summoning his soul

Five candles to five points
A circle conceals the nails of a dead child
The flushed embers
The innocent blood shed on the soil

Soulless deceased body
There is no graeater honor than serving me
Come to me through corruption
I unleash your spirit into hell

9. The Paths Of The Lustful Abandon

Come to me between the shadows of the night
As the messenger of voluptuous pleasures
Be the mistress of my lewd and dark desires
Accompany me through the paths of lustful abandon

False god-fearing puritans

Adulterers addicts to the drip of the nectar of harlots
Fornicator, you rejoice in your sins
Like animals searching for satisfaction
For sweet flesh, for ecstasy, for pleasure

Slaves of the orgiastic pleasures
Being an lecherous progeny from the abyss
Lascivious creatures eager of obscenity
Eat and drink from me

10. Pactum With The Indomitable Darkness

Arise strong! Lord of the immutable fire
Revealing the truths of the beyond
I find myself among miserable beings
Blinded by the heavenly light

Fearful creatures of the earth and sea
The darkness will descend on you once again
What torments you?
Hidden between empty prayers

Your revelations open my eyes and mind
I hear your secrets carried through the wind

Show me whe mightly darkness beyond
Damn this world stained with christian blood

Laurel wreaths at your feet
Lord of depravity

Liberate me from my inner pain
Caressed with the poisoned kiss of the earth
Spiritus, come from the lakes of eternal fire
I march on the unholy path alone

Laurel wreaths at your feet
Lord of depravity
