1.Handshake Of The Grim
hard and unrelenting we are in fighting trim
with swords drawn
handshake
of the grim
the halls are high and rain falls into them
and shadows of our two-faced ancestors
they
are here!
the hills the woods
the mist in the trees
who wants to live
where no one want´s to be
not to conquer
but ready to defend
leading the hordes
to
battle and war
you eye me up with distrust, believing
the ancient lies of the old and angry men
they are here!
they
are calling
wafts of mist at cold dawn
among the giant trees of home
endless is this time to wait
in the shadows in the tombs
once we drunk the blood together
blood of animal and man
its not a word it´s not a contract
death of the ancients in my hand
this is the calling of the mighty
the gathering of battle-beasts
unleash the hungry hounds of war
to
slaughter and to eat
2. Meaty Lady
from a hole inside the
stone
a cave of stone
a frightened thing sun
blinds its eyes
is crawling out of there
out of the dark the unseen
world
the caveman and his wife
dragging their feet to a
new life
meaty lady
mountain-bitch
feast your eyes on this
hunting grounds
bone-shaking wife
my favorite cooking style
it´s all in your hands
and knifes
from
endless fear released
today
a glorious day
ev´ry word they´d told
to them
was just a fucking lie
through a labyrinth of
bones and sculls
they went hand in hand
shy creatures are taking
over unknown land
I know we are dead and
gone
for you in your opinion
my home old fathers home
I know, it is dead and
gone
3. Medea
the time
we´d used
together
everything you´d told
blackened is the abyss
and cold
dark are the ways of
temptation
we have to walk
the big illusion is
falling
apart
the truth
is without mercy
you have to fear the worst
I´m entering the pits of
hades
I´m lost
I wake up as soon as I
sleep
still don´t understand
this cold-blooded murder
by your hand
rise! Medea
rise!
rise up from the crypt
my sweet
heart wake up
from your sleep
take a deep breath of this
new world
be grateful to me for this
present
and know by my hand
you have returned to the
living ones
just to satisfy your urge
for vengeance
damned soul
take my burden choke to
death
on my sins and corruptness
deceived whore forever
sorceress
awake with new
beauty
gracefully you´ll leave
your sleep
by your hand they will
fall
curse them all
once more I have to call
your name
from the ancient crypts
with blood on my hands
and lips
4. Hunter In The Deep
it was
knowledge there
but
also the sceptic
and in the
end both fathered
me
and one
stepped out
of the
quarreling crowd
to tell me my
name
and they
listened in silence
you shall
sleep toss and turn in bad dreams
in rifts and
ravines of the deepest sea
your
existence and meaning
won´t be
discerned
hunter
in the
deep
to devour the
worlds
only if the
black day breaks
you shall
come up from your cold grave
you´ll be
bound to kill and to destroy
with infinite
wrath and cold revenge
your heart
shall be a little one
you shall not
suffer from the sorrow you bring
you are born
from the womb
of dreadful
fear and terror
and then you
will fall
with
everything which all is chosen to die
in night and
storm in darkness
all these is
passing by
I
awake from
my cold sleep!
wash my hands
in blood so deep!
5.
Semen And Spawn
the huge
blown-up goddess
in front of
me
the greasy
snakeskin
shines in all
colours
swollen full
of milk
the sweating
breasts
and her womb
is wet constantly
offer me the
secret answer
to the riddle
to solve
maybe for
more
the hungry
horror is witching me
horror!
semen and
spawn
witching me
on the
tiles
of the shrine
like a slimy
slug
she is moving
towards me
she is
longing for a copulation
with a mortal
being
to serve her
she asks me
for a night to stay
to solve the
riddle
or to die
I fertilize
her spawn
it
had
started as a perverted game
gave birth to
a disgusting mutation
6. Plunderer Of The Crypt

7. The Wandering
Legions
the
blackest
of all winds
had called
from the mountains
follow me
down to the pit
the
poisoned
atmosphere
ashes of
cataclysm
chanting of
the dead
tho
mourning
procession arrives
at the gates
of oblivion
to walk
through the underworld
know our land
we´ll leave today
we haven
chosen the wrong way
into stone we
will go
in heat and
in hunger
through
deserts of thirst
in years of
privation
we are the
wandering legions
burden with
grief
along the
mountain range
we walk alone
hunted
and
hated
wicked winds
blow
but this
nation will live on
we are the
wandering legions
we are the
blood-red sky
the day will
come
8. I Fell The Sacret
Oak
I
fell the sacred oak
a
blow a stroke
the
blood of your gods father
will
flow!
in
the forest where they dwell
with
fire we come in
behind
the palisades
a
wooden village is burning down
ice-cold
winds blow
ridiculous
hammer
ravens
are laughing
at
your rune banner
Hel
and Hades
the
cow and the giant
Garm
and Kerberos
life
after death
retarded
culture in
seasonally
rotation
ask
to your bones and birds
ask
them for a solution
ice-cold
winds blow
ridiculous
hammer
ravens
are laughing
at
your rune banner
I
fell the sacred oak
timber
or firewood
let
him decide
this
unemployed priest
9. The Ashen Circle
into the
night of sinister
moon
and bloodstained fight
to hack and slash and
smash
we are the ruthless
bringer
of doom and war
by hammer, axe and sword
up on the
hill we stand
ready for the kill we ride
to break up
the reign of
the tyrant
in frenzied attack
splintered bones and blood
he will fall with all his
sons
no one will be left
in the kingdom of the dead
up on the
hill we stand
ready for the kill we ride
I waked the
dead again
will I be a part of them
soon?
in the kingdom of the dead
under sinister moon
abysmal
terror by my hand
the ungodly forces of the
deep
a cult of doom beneath
before my eyes and all
around
I crown myself midst among
them
both friend and fiend
the ashen circle - circle
of the dead!
now as I
begin to
understand
no way out and no escape
i´m reconciled to my own
fate
in the halls of the the
undead
a vassal came to pay
tribute
it´s me in
the ashen circle - circle
of the dead!
