Near Dark (...und Der Tod Wird Vor Neid Erblassen) Lyrics - Blacken The Angel - Agathodaimon

Part One 

This is a world blessed by the victims 

Of carnal tragedy 

The humans ritual of love and adoration 

Dense-woven history 

Sentiments decide existance, the artwork that I've bled 

Bizarre she defined her presence 

With the lament of the undead 

When her eyes have bathed in danger 

And the moon had new design 

In the cradle of our desire all the blood has turned to wine 

But the love no longer remained than just a stir to survive 

In this labyrinth of perfidity for my mistress to recover 

I'll forever strive... 

Part Two 

Dem Sterbenden - die Hoffnung 

Dem Propheten - Der Fluch 

Der Liebe - die Dichtung, die dem Sterben entsprung... 

The night is crystal clear - words are sent from pictures 

Sounds that I can't hear - as weakness wins my body 

Selling cheap my soul - and its bleeding heart 

Eclipsing the whole - planet, history and light... 

Part Three 

Sometimes, when the sun hides in the back of the earth 

When the hungry souls, to whom pain gave birth 

Embalm their coldness with the blood's warmth... then 

I can clearly hear the calling of a lonely and distant star 

In the shade of the abhorrent 

Yet in the still of the nights - In the still of the moment 

When the moment dies 

There she gently approaches 

With the new meaning of life... 

In a haze of hazard, in the withering chill 

Baleful's the passion, when hearts stand still 

A flood of sentiments entwined 

Rattle thru my falling soul 

I slumber against the spirit of time 

Like a stranger in a foreign world! 

In a park, along the alleys, stained with blood and tears 

In the hour, when dusk disperses 

Its colors on the white statues 

Then I'll wander as a phantom of the posthumous regrets 

And my fiery lips I'll freeze 

With the kiss of these unrivalled statues 

"Si-n asta noapte sfirsese printr-un sarut 

Poeme - agonizate de-un infinit si-un inceput" 

Part Four 

"The all-engulfing dawn of habitude shows his claws again- 

Do you still remember our oath? - Til light do us part!?" 

Come forth, Feline 

Mere moment of melancholy 

Drink deep of my desire 

The quenchless fire 

That unites our tameless embers... 

Come forth, Feline 

Tortured by our final duet 

Let thy pale fingers slide on the petals of the flowers 

That thee stained with mortal, coagulated blood... 

On the walls, midnight closes even the stoical eyes 

Of the unsleeping portraits 

And the white-eye of a lonely candle falls asleep 

Into its own startling solitude... 

Part Five 

Silent heart desires 

The balm that drives away the human waste 

Oh come, infidel duchess 

Shrouds of frost fall furiously down... of thee I taste again 

Deciphering eternity of its ruined scripts 

Of the tenebrious river I pleasantly sip 

Upon lifeless leaves autumn has banished 

Arises my lovelorn aura's odyssey 

"Un ornic cu rostiri funebre, suna amiaza-ndirjit 

Iar ceru-mprastia tenebre, peste parcul amortit" 

...Returned into that park as a whole 

Under the questioning eyes of stars and heavens 

Dreaming away on the lost love I've recovered 

Death suddenly rises 

Annoyed that he couldn't save me 

He turns pale from envy 

The seasons vanish and so does this story 

As the same poets hand raises the pen 

He pictured this spectacle with... 

The actors fade on the dreary alleys of that elder park 

Only two nightshades remaining - 

Celebrating the sunset of ages while their sullen laughter 

Lustfully haunts the mortal seeds of ruin... 

Nights were crystal clear - words were sent from pictures 

The colors have seared - these pages, whereas 

The darkest hour revealed - the mysterious hand 

Which dutifully sealed 

This episode's arcane End.
