[INTRO] [VERSE 1] Tredge along quiet so as not to be heard, silence interrupted by the flapping of birds! TURNING around quickly, frozen with fear. a raven black cloked figure before me appears! We've been called here, (we have been summoned) to witness the beginning of the rebirth of old gods! Nashing their teeth and clawing at the boundries of reality's gates! Only HELL AWAITS! (GOOOOO NOW!) [CHORUS] This cold winter's night filled with fear and dispare! Where the wispers of dead ones are heard through the air! Alone in the darkness, hoof prints in the snow! black demons are hiding in the shadows from the moon's eery glow! [VERSE 2] For far to long now We've been silenced by the teachings of their important God, now is the time for the destruction of the children of Christ! Controlled and possessed by dark forces condemned to be beckoned by the call! Death hangs in the air like the snow that falls around me the Retribution of the Ancients fulfilled! A new dawn for man has begun now stand in awe of the old gods return to the seat of power that is rightfully theirs! [VERSE 3] HUMANITY'S FATE IS Almost AT HAND. THE TIDES ARE NOW TURNING To THE DOWNFALL OF MAN! THE FOOLISH AND WEAK, THAT BOW TO THE MEEK, will FIND THE DESTRUCTION. THEY INHERENTLY SEEK! Fools OF THE CROSS, THE STONE'S THEY ONCE TOSSED, CAST BACK With OUR Vengeance NOW THEY Realize THE COST! THE FIRES THEY BURN With THE BODYS OF MEN! SEVER THE HEADS OF THE CHRIST FEARING DEAD [CHORUS] This cold winter's night filled with fear and dispare! Where the wispers of dead ones are heard through the air! Alone in the darkness, hoof prints in the snow! black demons are hiding in the shadows from the moon's eery glow! [INTERLUDE] [VERSE 4] in the night he calls to me! He is The bringer of light who is Shrouded in darkness! Oh MORNING STAR! Bestow upon me your Gift of ILLUMINATIONS power, I Plead for you to lend unto me, Your fiery sword, that I shall bring down so I may cleave from the world all of our Christ clutching enemies! (OH GLORIOUS NOCTURNATY) THUS The SKY'S OPEN WIDE, Setting the stage, FOR The war of ALL wars THAT IS Now begin! The time has NOW come for us ALL, THE BRINGERS DARKNESS, To rise FROM THE ASHES AND WAVE THE BLACK FLAG HIGH, AS WE commence with destruction of The kingdom of Christ! [BRIDGE] [VERSE 5] Fire Now Rains form the HEAVENS, AVENGING THE crimes Of All MAN! The fools STAND as they now WITNESS, THEIR Destruction, domination, theLIFE LESS THEY ALL FALL TO THE LAND! Caught in THE GRASP OF Armageddons claws closed tightly AROUND US, THERE'S NO HOPE, THERE'S no salvation, no future At HAND! Acceptances of FATE, The Cards WE'VE been Dealt, OBLIVION AWAITS, THIS is the culmination of the DARK RITUAL OBLIVION! [CHORUS] This cold winter's night filled with fear and dispare! Where the wispers of dead ones are heard through the air! Alone in the darkness, hoof prints in the snow! black demons are hiding in the shadows from the moon's eery glow! DARK RITUAL OBLIVION!
