No Redemption in Fire
I am looking for safety
I am looking to save me
Striving for redemption so
I am choosing fire
I cannot wake up from this nightmare
Opening my eyes in the darkness
What is this dreadful being before me?
I start to foresee my misery
While the mirror shows the truth
That is what I have become
I hear your laughter, cursed spirit
And I am scared of your power
Nowhere to hide in this place
I know you see all my moves
Guilt starts to hunt ruthlessly
And I am scared of your power
What I have done in life
Turns now against me
Time is running out
And reckoning has come
I am still a prisoner of myself
The cell is locked, the key thrown away
If there is a light after the tunnel
I still keep the eyelids closed
Seeking for a very relief I find it in the flames' kiss
Their warmth will not reject me
But no phoenix will be reborn
From the ashes of the forlorn
Never wanted to be the pelican
Never pierced my chest to feed others
I have drunk my own blood
To slowly poison myself
I am looking for safety
I am looking to save me
Striving for redemption so
I am choosing fire

Vêtements ondoyants et nacrés
She seems a dead woman covered by shroud
Soft like silver mirrors in a pale moon
Deadly princess wants blood in this night of sin
Daughter of Babylon, mother of prostitutes
Lust pervading their funeral pyre,
Pride devouring the queen of fire,
Burning skin eaten by anger
Incestuous thoughts of violence and wild ferocity
She seems a red phoenix risen from desert dust
Pure like Lilium in chaste Virgin bosom
Alluring harlot dancing for Herod
The seven veil, charmer of Death
No jewels can feed her hunger
Revenge delivered in wintery gold saucer
Martyr of God, a cold bloodedly murderer
Indecent thoughts of demise and fierce brutality
Why don't you see me?
Deceived prophet of sacred decay
Why don't you moan?
See me now and cry for your pity
Why don't you beg me?
Your tongue wiped out by snakes
I'm Salomé, killing messiahs and seers bow to me coward
She seems a naked Madonna, thorns devastating her gold lips
Profane like her faith lied raped in a tomb
Black virgin Magdalene, poisonous flower
By capital vices, dark fate
Eden, of lost and forgotten adorer
Johan, tormenting with sickness his lover
Sad cries, ravaging the accuser
Indecent thoughts of demise and fierce brutality

Abyssum peccatorum MMXXIII
Stinging wind, branches scratch my face
Lost in the dark forest, stars are hidden by leaden clouds
Visions, shames, voices torment my soul
Please, rescue me from this endless pain
A glimpse, a sunbeam enlightens the pathway
An instant of purity in my eternal sin
A single blink and I sink again in the abyss
I grope on the hillside, last ray of salvation
Fighting against bloodthirsty beasts
And she-wolf attacks me, eager and famished
Dragging me into the sea of loss and despair
A glimpse, a sunbeam enlightens the pathway
An instant of purity in my eternal sin
A single blink and I sink again in the abyss
E qual è quei che volentieri acquista,
E giugne 'l tempo che perder lo face,
Che 'n tutti i suoi pensier piange e s'attrista,
Tal mi fece la bestia sanza pace,
Che venendomi 'ncontro a poco a poco
Mi ripigneva là dove 'l sol tace.
Miserere
Shadow of the glorious epoch
Have mercy on me
Don't let me drown
Lead me through blackness with your
Eternal light of grace and mercy
I have no fear to walk in
The fire of hell and purgatory
Miserere
Shadow of the glorious epoch
Have mercy on me
Don't let me drown
I beg you to guide me
In the name of God
So that I could
Escape from eternal damnation

Der ewige Garten
Come and admire my reign
May you lose yourself in it
My garden rejects the sun, repels the heat
No season has ever changed its dress
Dark are its branches, black are the leaves
Coal is the sap flowing in the trunks
No star nor cloud dwell in the sky
To reveal when the day bows to the night
Every flower is satiated
With immortality's juice
No petal will tiredly fall to the ground
Beauty is the queen of these somber fields
A feeble light adorns the foliage
The never gathered fruits shine
Like liquid fire igniting the woods
My garden has never known growth
No seed has ever been planted
No wait necessary to blossom
No parasite will damage its face
My garden is the most perfect creation
That has ever been thought of man
Its splendor has enslaved the passing of time
A product of the human mind to survive
My garden has won against the eternal darkness
Because no life has ever filled its roots
The scent of decadence won't spread in the air
The reign of stillness is death's defeat
Come and admire my reign
May you lose yourself in it
Come and admire my reign
May you lose yourself in it
Ich will meinen eigenen
Garten erbauen damit
Meine Seele ewig lebt,
Die grausame Zeit will
Ich beherrschen damit ich
Mich vom Todes Kette befreie
