1. As The Twilight Gave Birth To The Night
As the twilight gave birth to the night
I walked into the forest
The twisted trees clawing at the skies
These are my true dominions
The mist glows red and ablaze the sky
And the funeral wind blows cold
This is where I shall sacrifice
Here I will end my mortal life
Seduced by the October moon
Drowning in its frozen grace
Tempting my nocturnal lusts
Bathing my pale cold face
These dark forests are singing to me
In tongues it cries my name
Bidding me into its deep dark womb
Where my spirit forever shall dwell
And a cold wind of evil
whispers my name in the forest,
I dance with witches and trolls
As the twilight gave birth to the night
I am here... Forever
My burial place will be the mountains
the forests and the seas
And so my name shall be remembered
for all eternity
And still a cold wind of evil
whispers my name
in the forest as my spirit dance
with witches and trolls
Their hymns are praising me
For I am their newborn king
Forever...
These dark surroundings are mine
From the smallest stone to the tallest tree
And so I will be the ruler of this night
I will reign in divinity
2. Enslave The Astral Fortress
The stench in the air
is cold as a winter night
The loss of my inner quest
The fallen star faded away
Deeper, deeper I sink
into the embrace of sorrow
The winds of liars caresses me
Down here in the crying valleys of the dreamers
Detest and yearning tears me apart
I can see the thousand points of light
up in the burning sky
And I knew: it has to be done...
The salt of anguish
fills my bleeding veins
My heart is pierced by its falseness
Darkness... The pride is defeated
once again as I rise
I stand under a flaming sky
Deeper, deeper I sink
in hope to find the fallen star
and the secret of the northern lights
Aurora Borealis, Stellae Trajectio
take me
Never again...
Nothing forever...
I can see the thousand points of lights
up in the burning sky
And I knew: it has to be done
And it seems like I'm swallowed
by its mass of oblivion
and forever to be in flames
3. Through The Midnight Spheres
Among evil gods I sleep
Their ancient hymns were my dreams
But the vast and cold forest beckons
So I rose with the funeral moon
From my coffin of blackest stone
From the crypt which for aeons embraced me
Through the portals and into the frozen night
Its calling for me...
In darkness reborn
Through the midnight spheres I dance
Spreading my wings Caressing the black infernal night
"From a timeless past I have risen to rule this kingdom of mine"
The eye of the wolves will guide me
Through landscapes of ancient black
I am eternal, I am supreme
I ride the nocturnal winds
The cry of ravens will carry me
forth dimensions unknown by mortals
I am eternal, I am supreme
The nocturnal winds are mine!!
I descend into forests long forgotten
The naked trees united in perfect melancholy
And I saw spirits dancing
Swirling insane
Their knowledge revealed to me
In darkness reborn
Through the midnight spheres I dance
Spreading my wings
In this forest of pernicious black
Night is eternal
The sun is forever consumed
Embraced by the beautiful blackness
So sombre, so pure...
4. The Eclipse Of Infernal Storms
The gate rose before him
It stood there open wide
A bloodstained portal of might
His travel to the land unknown
I awakened from this dismal dream
the same as thousand times before
This sight is so impure
So filled with mourning and with grace
It cries a message to me
of which I cannot ever grip
A man and this enormous gate
with his name on it written in blood
I fall to my knees
Spelling my name
to be unleashed, and ever blessed
The great beyond lies open in front of me
I could see the gate
rise before my eyes
With a freezing smile
I entered the realm of death
I could see the truth
like an open book
And then I knew
what I had become
I awakened from this dismal dream
The treshold to the dead
I've passed this enormous gate
with my name on it written in blood
In blood... I fall to my knees
Spelling my name
to be unleashed, and ever blessed
The great beyond lies open in front of me
5. Emerging From Her Weepings
Crawling in grief
across the distant fields
I am the desire of which engraved thee...
The formation was set
An enormous storm arouse
As the thirteenth night ablazed
with its web of obscurity
Oh, you glorious blackened
infernal screaming belle
Reveal the name,
unleash the path for bereavment
I have found the key
The key to the ancient flame
Awaiting the sight to dwell in mournful immortality
Like a breeze I levitate, only lead by the owl's wisdom
We followed her majestic sleep
so majestic and delight
Her weeping – touched me, caressed me
Her weeping – screamed and longed for me
Her weeping – gave me all her might
Her weeping – her weeping enthroned me
I am the desire of which branded you...
Into the glowing mist
Her moanings tore my cloak
Out from her empty veins
I emerged with wrath and lust
My blood in her mouth I saw the passion
The cold passion to become what she became
Her weeping – touched me, caressed me
Her weeping – screamed and longed for me
Her weeping – gave me all her might
Her weeping – her weeping enthroned me
I shall remain, forced to meet the dawn
Bleeding widow, I belong to her
The clouds were black as the starless night
For sunset I yearn, dusk you mysterious
6. Failing Wings
There will be no beauty
The secrets of the unborn
An angel's cries with its shattered wings
The holy blood is spilled
I fell from grace, I fell into the deepest abyss
The evocations wrath hit me like a fist
To burst out in scars of distant grief
The August flames swallowed me with its kiss
Never to be found is the key to purgatory
I felt the winds of death and its fury
They approached from the halls of sacred duty
The fall of daylight has begun
From the ruins of my domains
They gathered with a pagan oath
To reign these walls for aeons
Hungry for the bewinged
The fullmoon I adore and its mysteries
I raise my hands with their blood in me
As blasphemy reigns over me...
I fell from grace, I fell into the deepest abyss
The evocations wrath hit me like a fist
To burst out in scars of distant grief
The August flames swallowed me with its kiss
Fullmoon...
7. Vittra
And then she came forth, the forest goddess
Her crying hymns were calling for me
I followed her into the eternal vast forests
And so, so I found myself lost there in
8. Sunless Dawn
Hear the howlings in the night
I'm one with its might
Enchated by the calling cries
as I gaze into the sombre skies
Awaiting the shining
The fire never seen
Waiting for the darkened path which'll
leads me straight to the one who dance in my dreams...
In surrounding flames I must be wrapped
Wolves run by my side
as I walk towards eternity
In hate they'll gather with my shadow
as the moon arise
A scent of twilight
Into fading woods I march
I glimmer a shyness in the red
In eternal dreams I drown
As the children of Fenriz
sang their moonlight serenades
I made love to the midnight winds
The forest embraced me
with its impurity
In ecstacy my tears fell
like autumn silver rain
Now I stand above the human race
I've solved it all, the mysteries of night
Its revealed to me
With a smile I see
These stars (unseen) formations
That breeds my sunless dawn
9. Exalted Above Thrones
Oh, queen of the night hear my call
I raise my sword as many times before
Calling for the empress to return
Opening my veins, releasing my blood
And with the burning midnight mist she came
Pale white skin and eyes of blackest flames
Nocturnal goddess of the deep
Mistress of the ancient dark
I fell into her cold embrace
The enchantress of the stars
Giving her what was hers
Pain sweet as silver thorns
Feeling exalted above thrones
Her visions were now mine
As if the sun were neverborn
we played among the stars
Drinking the lihght of the goatmoon
The universe was ours
With the purity in her kisses
I fell through the blackened skies
Promising life everlasting
As a king and queen we'd rule
And in dreams eternal we met
Dancing through this hellish night
floating through worlds beyond cosmos
Giving her what was hers
Pain sweet as silver thorns
Feeling exalted above thrones
Her visions were now mine
I felt exalted above thrones
Love me, destroy me, suck me dry
But dawn came as it always does
Fading away she left me crying
With the loss of my bethrothed burning
I left my shell
and this mortal world
to recieve life everlasting
...Life everlasting

Naglfar... Это слово скоро станет нарицательным, по крайней мере, для меня оно уже нарицательное и является синонимом высшего качества в блэке. Не скрою, что, взяв в руки их "Diabolical", я несколько скептически разглядывал обложку, ожидая увидеть очередной низкопробный релиз от очередных неудачников, вскормленных на мажорной шведской студии. Но, услышав первую вещь, я постарался избавиться от таких мыслей... Первое, что пришло в голову – огромные, величественные скандинавские горы. От этой музыки пахнет Севером, угрюмыми скалами, страшными замками и чем-то необьяснимо страшным и величественным, тем, что не поддаётся разуму, но манит и притягивает. Тяжёлые блэкушные риффы, яростно кричащий агрессивный вокал, огромная скорость и великолепные мелодии, которые просто не могут оставить равнодушным, дополняли это впечатление. Альбом слушался просто на одном дыхании, и вдруг... что я слышу? Не было же клавиш!!! А вот тебе, чтобы не судил по обложке! Да, великолепная композиция, мастерски исполненная на фортепиано действительно великим Музыкантом – с чувством, с каким-то удивительным сладостно-мрачным оттенком... и вот, последний аккорд замер в воздухе... и снова скорость, агрессия, неудержимая злоба, и при этом красота... такая мрачная и притягательная. В общем, таких альбомов за свою жизнь я встречал немного. Эта музыка – для истинных ценителей блэка, для тех, кто разочарован, кто не хочет жить по правилам, написанным варварским обществом. Это лекарство для тех, кого тошнит от дешевых мелодий, от тупых ритмов, не несущих в себе ничего. Это вечное, тёмное Искусство, которое не поддаётся старению и не умрёт никогда...

1. Horn Crowned Majesty
Oh, glorious morning-star, my pridefull light
Cast down in the abyss lord of fire, lord of night
Unveiled in a vision
Poison my heart and soul
Come forth and set your child free
Kill all once pure inside me
(CHORUS)
You call from shadows
You haunt me throughout my sleepless nights
The demons nightsky prophecy
My soul is thee...
Horn Crowned Majesty
Oh, beautiful nightshade, lightbearer so bright
Great father of death and sin, transform day to eternal night
Come forth through the shadows
Fill me with hate and pain
Infernal masterplan
Set free a soul insane
I call unto thee Thanatos
I rest in your embrace Hypnos
Blackhearted faceless
Thy name is might
Bringer of storms and plagues
Lucifer, angel of light
Darkest of sorcery Complete my destiny
Fill my heart and soul
Horn crowned Majesty...
2. Embracing The Apocalypse
Scorching heat brings tears to my eyes
As I follow the shadows
Down below through the moonlit abyss
Riding the winds of damnation
Posessed by the hell-fires
Enthralled by its glow
Receiving sulphur salvation
As I hear the crying voices of countless lost souls
Embracing The apocalypse
The heavenly realms once divine
Will crumble to dust as I return with fire
Punishment in its purest form
Cleansing this world with my powers newborn
Lamentations from the blessed
They're lying in their graves
Pale white cheeks and broken wings
With their virgin hearts impaled
The sweet sound of angels crying
Descends from above
Their bodies torn, ripped from wing to wing
Saturate the Heavens with Their Blood
Posessed by the hell-fires
Enthralled by its glow
Unleashing sulphur salvation
As I hear the crying voices of countless lost souls
Spheres will collide in cascades of fire
That Open the gates to ancient realms
From beyond the stars and the abyss that yawns
The cursed gods are returning from their graves
It's the dawn of The Apocalypse...
3. 12'th Rising
The veil of nocturnal beauty
Drowns the daylight flames
And so IT broods beyond the depths
of the horizon never seen by the eyes of man
Awakened by the twilight's kiss
The nightly rebirth of evil
The paleness ITself has risen
From IT's slumber to reach out in IT's full shape
The midnight strikes again
The wicked ones has returned
December rises the damnation
Like a black burning dagger IT ripps the sky
Heaven weeps so feeble, as IT glows
Sunset has brought this shadowcast
Sunset brings the sign
Which causes the final summoning
of ravens, serpents and even the owls
The choir of wolves echoes,
the eclipse is now complete
Thousands of throats is howling to praise
IT's supreme infernal glare
"Scarletburn... Evening mist...
Stormwinds of death come forth!"
The gathering of nightfall's beings
impaled the morning grace
The dawn lies raped, shredded and strangled and so does the afternoon
Light's erased, and with the darkness IT lurks
smiling, glowing so proud...
4. Into The Cold Voids Of Eternity
A chilling wind grasp my soul as I walk through the twilight gates
Choirs of grief are heard from the spirits of the ancient breed
Now I know what lies beyond, now I know my fate
To dwell in the fathomless depths of eternity
Into the cold voids of eternity
Landscapes clad in the frozen veils of dusk
Spiritual forests and naked fields – they greet me infernally
And so I saw demonic forces rising from the chasms below
Once dreaming but now awake, as they storm out through the gates
Bewitched by their splendour I soared with the foul
Carried by their demon wings
Darkness embraces me, with stygian supremacy
Into the cold voids of eternity
Witchadorned – chaosspawn – mighty ones grasp this world with hate
Scorch the slaves with the flames of your burning eyes
The weak shall mourn and weep as they squirm upon their stakes
Pain enthroned in a blaze of everlasting fire
5. The Brimstone Gate
I have seen the most beautiful light
Since my birth It's been possessing my mind
I've lashed myself, I have opened my veins
Cursed my blood in grief
As a shadow of death, the repaer from the tales of past
I've been lurking in the shades of Thy creation
Feared by most, hated by all, loved by none
A destiny in solitude
Pariah I am, rejected by my race
I shall triumph at last
I damn myself to fire eternal
And on the day of commotion I shall rise
And walk into my sulphur kingdom
Entering the brimstone gate
I hate the soil I walk, despise the earth that gave me birth
A hungry yearning for the homecoming at Lucifer's domain
And now the portals open wide, am I a fool if I not try?
To enter realms of dark supremacy through sorcery
I call on hell, arise from your dwell
And grant me the gift of which I pray
To enter the gate, at last seal my fate
My unhallowed father to greet...
6. Blades
Your final moon sets
On this night you shall die!
Your pathetic merciful god, where is he now?
He didn't listen to your cry...
We will come to you like thieves in the night
To extinct, to erase you
Filled with pure darkened wrath
Filled with passion to murder
Sons and daughters of christ
On the night of all nights die!
Feel the kiss of the scythe
In your horror-filled eyes it gleams bright
You will fall to your knees
Call to god for salvation
Raped by blades straight from Hell
Behold Satans creation!
As you drown in the dark
Feel the pain, feel the torture
You got quenched by the scythe
By the powers of Death's might
We will come to you like thieves in the night
To extinct, to erase you
Raped by blades straight from Hell
Filled with passion to murder
Sons and daughters of christ
Of the night of all nights die!
You got quenched by the scythe
By the powers of Death's might
Your final moon sets, now you know you will die
Face our powerful bloodstained blades
Meet your maker? No!
We will send you straight to Hell
7. When Autumn Storms Come
Nightchildren bring my words
Howling them through the dark
The time is here for my return
With the shadows I walk
Twilight shrouds the earth
As always when I'm here
Night spreads her wings for me
They call me father
I Have Come To Reap
Flowers wither where I walk
Dying of my caress
Summer sheds her tears
As I kiss her to her death
Pulling her dying remains
Into my cold embrace
No more colors but mine
Exquisite and foul are they
I Grant You My Dead Seed
My heart is made of thorns
I spread my frost as a monument of my rebirth
I bear stormwinds in my soul
And I scatter these storms to enslave the earth
Autumn Is My Name
8. A Departure In Solitude
9. Diabolical – The Devils Child
I stared into the broken mirrors of the universe
Dragged further unto the grasp of obscurity
Called by voices, called towards sin
As a black shape of death he sweeps across the land
Leading mankind into damnation
Mother earth screams out in vain...
... as we desecrate her clean soil with evil
The mighty mountains tremble and fall
and light is no more
A shape of black ripps the sky
The spawn of infernal empire, on demonwings he rides
He masters the storm and the rains
Diabolo, the chosen, the tribes of earth shall praise Thy name
I have seen the earthly gardens of blood
seen the proof of his might
New-born children unaware of the dark eyes of the night
As a black shape of death he sweeps across the land
Mother earth is extinct, behold the prince of pain
See the dawn of Satan's rise
See the dawn of Satan's rise

1. Of Gorgons Spawned Through Witchcraft
(инструментал)
2. Dawn Of Eternity
Winter ice – terminal frost
Closing eyes of equinox
Dimensional change – darkening skies
The sphere is shackled till dusk
Prophet dreams – ride the winds
As black holes open for devouring
Universal chaos in the realm of time
Surface of earth – covered in rime
From beyond enter the horror
Of a dark and hideous nature
The fall of man is now at hand
Awakened from an ancient slumber
The immortal ones return
The earth is theirs ones again
Stricken, cursed – frozen damnation
Man's fall to perpetual domination
Time trapped in between stages
Frigid return to the chamber of ages
3. Emerging From Her Weepings
Crawling in grief
across the distant fields
I am the desire of which engraved thee...
The formation was set
An enormous storm arouse
As the thirteenth night ablazed
with its web of obscurity
Oh, you glorious blackened
infernal screaming belle
Reveal the name,
unleash the path for bereavement
I have found the key
The key to the ancient flame
Awaiting the sight to dwell in mournful immortality
Like a breeze I levitate, only lead by the owl's wisdom
We followed her majestic sleep
so majestic and delight
Her weeping – touched me, caressed me
Her weeping – screamed and longed for me
Her weeping – gave me all her might
Her weeping – her weeping enthroned me
I am the desire of which branded you...
Into the glowing mist
Her moanings tore my cloak
Out from her empty veins I emerged with wrath and lust
My blood in her mouth I saw the passion
The cold passion to become what she became
Her weeping – touched me, caressed me
Her weeping – screamed and longed for me
Her weeping – gave me all her might
Her weeping – her weeping enthroned me
I shall remain, forced to meet the dawn
Bleeding widow, I belong to her
The clouds were black as the starless night
For sunset I yearn, dusk you mysterious

Давненько я порывался написать об этом альбомчике. Сразу замечу, что данный обзор не может претендовать на звание самого объективного и вообще конкретного – он для этого слишком эмоционален. Впрочем, по другому мне писать неинтересно. Уж так запал альбом мне в душу. Приступим.
Команда из Швеции, а это для сердца блэкаря всегда воодушевительно, т.к. очень уж немало нам подарила удовольствия эта нежаркая страна. Итак, "Sheol" – это практически 100-процентно быстрый, злобный, и в то же время очень мелодичный и даже атмосферный альбом – при этом, естественно, я говорю об очень жесткой мелодике и очень мрачной и леденяще холодной атмосфере.
"Sheol" – это северная вьюга, стелющаяся по ёжущейся от замогильного холода земле, это ледяной ветер, неумолимо заползающий, нет, неудержимо врывающийся в каждый закуток вашего продрогшего тела, но в то же время наполняющий душу потоком энергии и ликованием воина, застывшего в ожидании Вальгаллы...
Стилистически "Sheol" напомнил мне бессмертную группу Dissection, но немного ускоренную, и с более современным техничным звуком (это не камень в огород Dissection, просто констатация факта). Вроде мелькнули клавиши, а может, мне показалось. Нет, действительно – в "Of Gorgons Spawned Through Witchcraft". Кто-то скажет, чувствуется дэтовое влияние. Честно говоря, это даже не имеет значения. Разве тут можно слушать отдельные инструменты и педантично анализировать стилевые составляющие? Нет, нет и нет. Здесь просто слушаешь и кайфуешь. Для блэкушника "Sheol" – прямая инъекция эндорфина (правильно? – я не силен в биологии) в мозг, ни больше, не меньше. Если будет мне позволено так сказать – Naglfar показал, каким должен быть Black Metal. Именно так, с больших букв. Для буквоедов уточняю – так должен звучать Современный Классический Black Metal. Это – Образец, Идеал, если хотите. Пока кто-то (да, я имею в виду, например, ужаснувший меня последний Gorgoroth, но об этом в другой раз) досасывает последние сопли, Naglfar вырос и стал – лидером? Да запросто! Достоин – будь им!
Рекомендуется всем, кто желает причаститься к Искусству. (Да – я провоцирую :))
Возражения, комментарии? Перечитайте все с начала. И – слушайте!

1. I Am Vengeance
Humanity, what have you ever done for me?
Denounced and cursed since my birth for I am not like thee
A proud descendant of the ancient seed, driven forth by the screams of my
enemies
I am the plague that shall grace you with an early grave
Exterminate – Bring you all into damnation
In an orgasmic rush of pain, I mark my coming in crimson sprays
Fools! I shall rid myself from the thorns pierced in my side
The weak laments of your wounded shall be my crown
Anointed in their tears – sweet as wine are they
A waste of flesh is the only thing you are to me
The time has come to destroy your simple entities
A filthy pack of liars and thieves, crawling in the stench of your own
self-deceit
I am the predator and you are all mine to claim
Hunt you down unto the point of extinction
A genocidal warmachine wreaking chaos upon those who dare to challgenge me
I am vengeance incarnate
Your futile world I shall desecrate
I bear the mark of all demons like an aura that drips of venom
I am the bringer of the final war
Your god lies dead in his own shit and gore
Rest assured that all of you will die, you insolent fools shall breathe no more
Hatred burns within my veins towards your wretched kind
I spread my creed of suffering in this bloodbath so divine
I shall cleanse the earth from the worms of the human breed
Revel in the blood of my sworn enemies
Grind their bones to dust...
...Bloodlust!!!
Humanity what have you ever done for me?
Denounced and cursed since my birth for I am not like thee
A proud descendant of the ancient seed driven forth by the screams of my enemies
I am the plague that has put you in an early grave
Exterminate – brought you all into damnation
A genocidal warmachine grinding down all of you who dared to challenge me
Hatred burns within my veins towards your wretched kind
I spread my creed of suffering in this bloodbath so divine
No mercy shown for the weak in this blood-drenched fatal spell
Tear the flesh of from their limbs and send their souls to hell
... Send their souls to hell!!
2. Black God Aftermath
Droning winds sang my name in choirs so silent and grievous
Imploring me to awaken, to enlighten my moonlit eyes
Famished – Grinning in pain, branded stiff by those scorching rays
In vicious Grief – these tears I shed when beholding my fallen realm
In shadows entangled, in solitude I mourn
Cold hymns of obediance engulves my resurrected soul
Feed me – Fill my lungs with the souls of the sacrified ones
Worship – Call for the black god aftermath, call for my return
Aftermath... Call for my return!
As a son of the elders I see
As a descendant of the dark breeds the hate I feel
Only my own cries of vengeance I hear, obey speak my name
Bow before me! I am the one who stand by the throne
Of fire born with darkness within
Behold my call for this night that soon shall fall
Raising the chalice for the black god aftermath
To his glory and grace
Bring the damned souls into me, bring the virgins blood to invoke me
Hear my hunger, listen to the nocturnal preachings of mine
Shadow wings – embrace the earth, lay the land forever in dusk
Unveil me – The faceless one, the one forlorn and once dethroned
Let my grimness be unleashed, set free the holocaust with me
Cold hymns of obediance unchains my wrath upon the earth
Arrival – The birth of an era obscured by sulphur and flames
Black God Aftermath – Eternal domination
Aftermath... Call for my return!
As a son of the elders I see
As a descendant of the dark breeds the hate I feel
Only my own cries of vengeance I hear, obey speak my name
Bow before me! I am the one who stand by the throne
Of fire born with darkness within
Behold my call for this night that soon shall fall
Now brimstone fills the black night, since aeons riding these winds
Still the black god aftermath prevails...
3. Wrath Of The Fallen
Once embodied in celestial light, now torn asunder and cast aside
Like the feeble prey they are, they are ravaged without compromise
Behold the sign of their defeat, angels slaughtered and left to bleed
All that's left are the echoes of their cries, the dirge of a now lost breed
Flesh ripped from the sacred bones
Set free by the ravenous hunger of crows
Broken wings drenched in black seed
As a praise to their tragedies
A travesty spawned by the virgin whore
On his knees as the heavens crumble and fall
The reeking seed of Adam forever cursed
Now erased as creation has been reversed
Their futile lives now buried and lost
In the dust of sweet oblivion
The raging pulse of wardrums sound as the legions of Hell marches on
A swarming mass of darkness and hate, behold the wrath of the fallen
Once proclaimers of the divine ways, now ripped to shreds and put in
unmarked graves
Their cherub children has been whipped into obedient and doglike slaves
Behold the signs of their demise, their kingdom drawn into the abysmal fires
All that once was adorn by the light has now withered away and died
Sound the horns of triumph and victory
Kill all life in the name of our majesty
Once of the fallen now the rulers for all time to be
A travesty erased forevermore
His severed head a trophy for the unholy hordes
The reeking seed of Adam forever cursed
Now entombed in the shadow of our rebirth
... Rebirth!
4. Abysmal Descent
In the black depths of my very soul
A vast emptiness lies so arcane and cold
Carressed by the icy touch of melancholy
Like the sweetest of poison it permeates me
No more love, no more life
I remain cold and dead deep inside
Through my ruptured veins I leave this cursed world of light
To embrace the eternal fire
... And so I fall
Encircled by shadows as I descend
Portrayed in the most twisted of forms
Their visions are mine as they tear at my soul
Still my fate lies further below
And there I'll burn
Forever burn
Plunging down through these diabolical realms
A stygian landscape of lost hopes and pain
I thrive on the haunted screams of the damned
Their laments are my requiem
Then I sense something deep down below
The grande lakes of fire that calls for my soul
In a state of sheer rapture I descend into its flow
To be consumed by it's hellish glow
Sprayed with burning sulphur
Licked by scorching flames
Yet no regrets has passed my mind
No, none of my sins shall I ever repent
A lifetime filled with yearning
Has now come to an end
In these halls of pain I'm purified
My destiny fulfilled through this abysmal descent
And so through the fires I finally see
The abominations that's coming for mee
I writhe with pleasure as I'm torn piece by piece
The sweet ecstacy of pure agony
And here I burn
Forever burn
5. Devoured By Naglfar
Skin torn from the flesh of the petrified
Drenched by death and absorbed by its coagulating wood
When the final nails falls into its place, and the devil stands by the helm
Then the howling winds of damnation shall whine
Everywhere sounds the moanings from countless burning souls
Screaming in hate and pain, prepared to row into the final flames
As if shredding the sky the mast reaches high, impaling the clouds
Raised is the flag of war, onwards to Hel
Onwards to Hel
The world implodes in a sphere of chaos
As Naglfar devours us all, we're facing the eye of Ragnarök
Stormwinds wail, man has failed
Through the scorching flames of destruction we sail
Apocalyptic signs fulfilled in this holocaust tale
See the fire's in Fenris eyes, the sea now churns as the serpent writhes
The fate of Midgard sealed with the stench of the funeral pyres
The sail is set for the south leaving a world in havoc behind
And the dragonhead's eyes spies after the very last land to extinct
The bonecovered prem splits the bloodfilled waves
And the keel crushes the untouched shore with its rage
The world implodes in a sphere of chaos
As Naglfar devours you all, face now the eye of Ragnarök
6. Of Gorgons Spawned Through Witchcraft
Enter! Daughters of death, seducers from the limbonic kingdom
Angels of hell, their lips speak of perdition
Inhaling searing ashes of their temples burning bright
False prophets and purity, succumb to the daughters of night
Twisting feeble seraphs, they are screaming as they fall
In tearing pain their souls are reaped by their nocturnal call
They rejoice as they watch into the cauldrons of protracting pain,
Where in fallen souls burn and their bastard spawn shall reign
Retaliatoal queens, vengeful whores of the abyss
Crush the celestial splendour to satan's delight
Of gorgon's spawned through witchcraft
Forged by the very essence of hell
Of gorgons spawned through witchcraft
Graced by the venomous plagues that course within their veins
Gaze into the fires of hell, drink the blood from the devil's well
Now you sleep where the demon's dwell
And as your funeral bell knells
You're left petrified and doomed to watch the...
...Grimmest forms of torture, you try to scream but your lips are numb
Agonizing deathcries, the earth bleeds before the gorgons' reign
As blood besmears the light
You're under a spell that leads to eternal sleep
You fall into the deep, the eastern gorgons have come to reap...
7. Unleash Hell
I've seen the place where they meet, I know where it lies
Where ancient demons gather, where angels dies
The darkest pits of the abyss where flames burns bright
Where Satan reigns in terror, there's eternal night
I invoke the elder to lead me into that place
Drain myself from blood and drown in sulphur grace
I read the signs and blackened the earth with the magic of mine
I saw the gates of Hell open wide
In the depths I arise in fury, I'm lead through Hell
We perform unspeakable deeds, we're the ones who fell
In my hand the blades of death, I will take your life
Then slit your throat with Lucifers knife
I'm crowned with fire, await my final turn
Perish in flames – Burn, burn, burn!!!
A land of darkness, I saw it in a dream
A desolate landscape where evil reigns supreme
Give to us your life, I'll lead you to that place
Of nonexisting light, beyond time and space
I take you to the place where they meet, show you where it lies
Where Satan's soldiers gather, where christians die
Deep in my subconcious my enemies fall prey
The twisted and the wicked serve me and obey
I read the signs and blackened the earth with the magic of mine
I saw the gates of Hell open wide
8. Force Of Pandemonium
See disaster is spreading from nation to nation
Now the great yellow tempest bears witness of annihilation
... Of death
Worthless replicas made to adore
Your scattered herds are a sign of times forlorn
As wolves we come with murder in mind to wipe out your kind
Blood shall smear the earth, and the children of heaven will mourn
Gaia your soil bleeds black
Your womb shall be the massgrave for all of humankind
Rake up the sheltering heavens and spatter the light of that hated sun
Tarnish the symbols of god, and defile his bastard son
Hear this anthem that speaks of your fall
The force of pandemonium shall bring the end to you all
Mother of chaos from times before time
Awake from your slumber, come punish the blind
Great dragon of old in black sleep so cold
Your stygian splendour possesses our souls
Worthless replicas breathing no more
Your slaughtered herds are a sign of times forlorn
As wolves we came with murder in mind and wiped out your kind
Blood has cleansed the earth and the children of heaven lies tattered and
torn
Wake up those dwelling in darkness
Call them swarming from the vortex of souls
Open the gateways of Sheol
See the return of the cursed gods from below
Now kneel before the sons of damnation
The sworn enemies to gods dead creation
9. The Infernal Ceremony

"Хрюм едет с востока,
щитом заслоняясь;
Ёрмунганад гневно
поворотился;
Змей бьет о волны,
клекочет орел,
павших терзает;
Нагльфар плывет"
Старшая Эдда. Прорицание вёльвы
Если существование такого стиля как black metal оправданно, если black metal и должен как-то звучать, если black metal и следует как-то играть – то делать это, по моему глубокому убеждению, необходимо так, как делают ребята из Naglfar.
Девять композиций на сорок минут не напрягают занудством и продолжительностью звучания, а напротив держат слушателя в напряжении от первых слов электо-индустрального интро "Proclamation", до последнего аккорда "Carnal Scorn & Spiritual Malice". Величественный и агрессивный, мрачный и экспрессивный, дьявольски прекрасный в своей ужасающей красоте melodic black metal чем-то напоминающий творчество Dimmu Borgir и Old Man's Сhild, на мой взгляд, звучит куда более убедительней и если не "true" то, несомненно, более "evil" чем музыка упомянутых господ.
Жесткие, скоростные фрагменты неистового блэкушного рубилова, сочетающие в себе партии шквальных ударных и ураганных гитар очень грамотно и удивительно органично перемежаются более мелодичными, я даже скажу лиричными, фрагментами с использованием акустики, синтезатора и простеньких, но цепляющих гитарных соло. Дополняет это пиршество слуха весьма нетривиальный скрим Кристофера Оливиуса. Очень мощная, качественная и интересная работа, достойная самого пристального внимания слушателей. Нагльфар плывет!

1. Proclamation
Your flesh is now ours...
2. A Swarm Of Plagues
Winds, furious firestorms
Come grace this world with war
Its punishment bestowed on earth forevermore
Deities of disease
Bring the infidels to their knees
Strike fear into their hearts
Indifferent to their pleas
Come, legions of ungodly birth
Reap all that walks the earth
Judgment comes
in the form of a thunderous roaring curse
Spew forth atrocities
Wipe out the human fleas
Exterminate and crush all dreams of peace
Witness the glorious coming of brimstone and fire
Everlasting plagues are now unchained
Behold the end of the human era
The end of feeble ways embrace the tyrants' warfare
A swarm of plagues
Hear the hissings coming from the reapers' scythe
Reversed are the words of creation
Become undone in the cleansing flames
Plutonium grace – The end of days
Rise up and burn what was once created
Turn fertile soil to sand
Annihilate – Abort the sacred masterplan
Spew forth atrocities
Wipe out you human fleas
Exterminate! Crush all dreams of peace
Witness the glorious coming of brimstone and fire
Everlasting plagues are now unchained
This marks the end...
We are haters of humanity
We preach about the end of the world
Your empire is falling
Let our teachings to be heard
Behold the end of the human era
The end of feeble ways
Embrace the tyrants' warfare
A swarm of plagues
Hear the hissings coming from the reapers' scythe
Reversed are the words of creation
Become undone in the cleansing flames
Plutonium grace – The end of days
3. Spoken Words Of Venom
Mankind despised
Taste the anger of mine
Sheer worthlessness colours the aura of thine
The ground that you walk is the ground where you'll die
Black angels smile at your painful demise
Taste the venom of mine
The words I speak are the words of your demise
Taste the venom of mine
Silence is shattered by the truth I reveal
I'm cold burning hate
The flesh you possess is the uttermost waste
My preachings are sealing your fate
My eyes are the mirrors that reflects your death
Contempt I express with each single breath
I despise you
Come manifest yourself in front of me
My face is the last thing you'll ever see
I despise you... Oh, how I loathe you
Approach me not – Can't you see
You're not worth dust to me
Approach me not – leave me be
You disgust me
Mankind despised
Feel the hatred of mine
Sheer worthlessness reeks from the presence of thine
The ground you walk is the ground where you'll die
Oh how I rejoice at your final demise
Taste the venom of mine
These words I speak are the words of your demise
Taste the venom of mine
My eyes are the mirrors that reflects your death
Contempt I express with each single breath
I despise you
Come manifest yourself in front of me
My face is the last thing you'll ever see
I despise you... Oh, how I hate you
Approach me not – Can't you see
You're not worth shit to me
Approach me not – leave me be
You disgust me
4. The Murder Manifesto
Possessed by the blazing aurora
Reborn under the fullmoon light
Hate boils in my veins tonight
I have wrapped myself with anger
and pursued you, killing without pity... I do
I've armed myself with all the strength of hell
And no prayers will pass trough
When all my enemies are crushed under my feet
When human rights are perverted
In the presence of my nonloving form
Your chosen breed is deserted
I bring the gospel of the cleansing death
Your unawareness disturbs me
I always move like a thief in the night
When I move in on you
As I murder you
This is for the sins of your prophets
And the iniquities of your priests
Who shed the blood of righteous
And tarnished our blackened beliefs
When all my enemies are crushed under my feet
When human rights are perverted
In the presence of my nonloving form
Your chosen breed is deserted
I bring the gospel of the cleansing death
Your unawareness disturbs me
I always move like a thief in the night
When I move in on you
As I murder you
5. Revelations Carved In Flesh
I stand above the norm
Reptile in human form
With jaded eyes I look upon
the rest of you with scorn
For all that I can see
A world of enemies
and mindless flocks of easy prey
The catalyst for my needs
I bring the secrets of the grave
It's yours to keep if you choose to follow me
Just close your eyes and the last thing that you'll feel
A ravenous kiss of steel
The beauty of an opened ribcage
It's close to reverie
I give thanks to this dirty cunt
She gave her heart to me
Prepare the skin and work the flesh
with knives, meathooks and razorblades
These are the precious tools I use
for the art that I create
Her body now broken and cold to the touch
So perfect for me to embrace
The severed head kept, with which later I'll play
When ripened into that condition I crave
(Like three days fresh from the grave)
I dream of shattered bones and screams
A place where I am king
Where torn up bodies pose en masse
in erotic scenes of pain
The score of kills now march my age
A fine total of twenty-eight
An endless source of memories
for me to masturbate
A new toy strapped on bloodstained sheets
Inspirtation soon fills me
With a rusty bonesaw I conduct
the sweetest symphonies
Trough all these years I've realized
The only time I feel alive
Is when all living things around me
suffer and then die
I bring the secrets of the grave
It's yours to keep if you choose to follow me
Just close your eyes and the last thing that you'll feel
A ravenous kiss of steel
Her body now broken and cold to the touch
So perfect for me to embrace
The severed head kept, with which later I'll play
When ripened into that condition I crave
Three days in passing and out comes my amour
to finally get just what she deserves
Bulging eyes staring and begging for more
So gag on my semen you dead fucking whore
6. None Shall Be Spread
... It has begun...
For far too long we have accepted their ways
The time has come for us to retaliate
Prey upon the worthless
erase them from the eart
Their unborn shall be ripped out
from their wombs
and stomped into the dirt
In the cold morning breeze, the stench of misanthropy
Their fallen shall be scattered for the vultures to feed
They shall be taught the fiercest lessons of war
And in the end they shall breathe fornevermore
We, the bringers of Armageddon
Embodied in unholy grace
Filled with retribution and murderous rage
Like an ironclad fist smashed into your god's face
No forgiveness granted, none shall be spared
Wading knee-deep through your blood
Encouraged by the sound of rendering flesh
None shall be spared!
A reign of fools now ended
Two thousand years of lies
Our hordes now rejoice in triumph
as the sun erupts and dies
We preyed upon the worthless
We erased them from the earth
With salt we cleansed their tainted soil
To forever remove their curse
7. And The World Shall Be Your Grave
Crushed is the future of this feeble travesty
Your wretched kind shall bother us no more
A dead race to be, oh stinking bags of meat
Nothing but a filthy virus soon to be cured
Consumed by rage, I am fulled by the pain
That shall bring all you fuckers to your knees
The greatest of all sufferings
That of which you shall receive
Avert your eyes – denounce my name and leave me be
The taste of bile – Your worthless presence truly sickens me
I pray to the beast, A prayer for disease
For the imminent doom of humanity
Dreams of a world devoid of life
A silent tomb for all eternity
A fevered wish for cataclysms
and the war to end all wars
A desperate yearning for the day
when the scum shall breathe no more
The day you die is the day I smile
Salvation lies in the nuclear fire
The memory of you shall fade
and the world shall be your grave
Now bow your heads in shame
The earth shall be reduced
into a grand necropolis
The days of man are numbered
Soon they shall cease to exist
With a future now crushed, and all hopes turned into dust
Mankind has been brought to their knees
Behold a world devoid of life
A silent tomb for all of humanity
Avert your eyes – denounce my name and leave me be
The taste of bile – Your worthless presence truly sickens me
The day you die is the day I smile
Salvation lies in the nuclear fire
The memory of you shall fade
and the world shall be your grave
Your final resting place
8. The Perpetual Horrors
All you see is a shell
there is nothing left inside
I'm dead to this world
I'm driven by a yearning to end all life
Tears of joy in my eyes
as you scream, as you die
I have blown out the candle
I have extinguished the flame of life
For I am sworn to the fallen
And their words they are mine
That's why I dominate, that's why I remain
Words of self-hate and horrors are the teachings that I proclaim
I feel it burning inside
The darkness that grows stronger endlessly
The force I serve craves no names
Your souls are the ultimate sacrifice
Open your veins!
That's why I dominate, that's why I remain
I have blown out the candle
I have extinguished the flame of life
For I am sworn to the fallen
And their horrors are mine
As you stare into my eyes
Loveless, cold
You'll read the message of the end
Since aeons foretold
It feels like I'm caressed by the dead
Invisible fingers tear and shred
I see no future ahead
Towards an early grave I'm led
I have blown out the candle
I have extinguished the flame of life
For I am sworn to the fallen
And their words they are mine
Alone in the night I will descend into the waters dark and old.
Eaten up by this yearning to end my life
I will lower my head, breathe in, then die
9. Carnal Scorn & Spiritual Malice
Ripped and torn
My temple of flesh i defile
Carnal scorn
Angels mourn as spiritual winds of malice blow
Celestial light will shine on me no more
Let the darkness consume me
Embrace the wisdom of the fallen from grace
I let it guide me
Confront me not with your righteous ways
His sacraments are forgotten
I brand myself in deepest spite
Towards everything that you represent
Mutilate – Self-hate
The soothing of a hungry blade
Misery – So deep
Grant me the eternal sleep
Released by the blood
Set free trough the pain
A vile coronation of carnal dismay
My body is punished again and again
I've realized there's no purpose to this life
Pointless form of existence
I'll walk the valley of the shadow of death
Take your filthy hand away from me O' "lord"
Your so-called love is not wanted
I'm already dead deep within
So all hail the ultimate sin
Mutilate – Self-hate
The soothing of a hungry blade
Misery – So deep
Grant me the eternal sleep
Suicide – Inspired
Join me on my final ride
Lust for life – Cast aside
Exit with a shotgun smile
Released by the blood
Set free trough the pain
A vile coronation of carnal dismay
My body is punished again and again

Шведы с 10-летним стажем на музыкальном рынке труда за время своего существования не успели обзавестись славой и богатством, хотя теперь легко входят в ту же самую нишу, которую под себя организовали блэк-металлические олигархи из Dimmu Borgir. Симфоническое измерение стиля, местами соприкасающееся с дэтом и даже трэшем, – то, что доктор прописал. Очень компромиссная работа без перегибов – либо в симфонику, либо в брутальность. Все, начиная с обложки, выпестованной Трэвисом Смитом, и заканчивая самим антуражем, наполнено мистикой и мрачными эмоциями, хотя сама экстремальщина и агрессивность не чрезмерные, а вполне дозированные. Атмосфера сочная и глубокая, хотя подобные работы производят впечатление эдакой "кукольности", попытки угодить если не всем, то многим. Красивые мелодии, эпический размах действия, глубокий и разноплановый (в первую очередь, в эмоциональном смысле) вокал. Последние две вещи могут претендовать на маленькую приставочку "прогрессивные" из-за фактуры. Но, пожалуй, наиболее сильный ход скандинавов на "Harvest" – это цельность работы и единство материала в его разнообразии.

1. Into The Black
I'm dying from within
Is this the end of the road that I've traveled in sin?
Many are the times when I've shed my skin
But I can't escape this battle, this one I can never win
You follow my commandments, but do you read between the lines?
I'm trapped in a pit where no light ever shines
In solitude my prayers came through
I damn myself – This is me teaching you
Watch me, se how I suffer and die
Death is my shadow, this is my goodbye
Don't want to live no more, life is a lie
So I hurt myself, watch my veins run dry
I'm trapped in this inner hell
I once chose to fall and I fell
Hiding from the world alone in my shell
I think people know what I don't dare to tell
Hear my screams, this agonizing cries
I'm standing right in front of you, you watch as I die
I hate myself, and I hate most of you too
I spit at the mirror, reaper now lead me through
2. Breathe Through Me
I worship thee, I want to feel your power flow through me
Hear my plead, come and rescue me
Set my spirit free allow me to see
Grant me the key to eternity
No I matter? I Ask myself
How come no one remembers my name?
I who served the light
Who fell in love with the night
Free me from my shackles
Pierce Through my soul's disguise
Grace me with the knowledge to see through the lies
Make me one with you now and eternally
Breathe through me for the world to see
Like sunshine after rain
Lift me up, exalt me, release me from pain
Remove damnation's stain
That torments me and marks me as Cain
Free me from my shackles
Pierce Through my soul's disguise
Grace me with the knowledge to see through the lies
Make me one with you now and eternally
Breathe through me for the world to see
3. The Mirrors Of My Soul
I was alone, blinded, unaware
Then their voices came near, now inside my mind they're always there
Telling me what to say and do
Guiding my path, carrying me through
Now my words cut like blades of anger
Gospels of the night, sung under the northern light
The thing that once was me is no more human inside
I am lost, I am dead yet alive
My eyes they mirror my soul
Black, empty, senseless and cold
I've lost the lust for life – Leave me alone
I will wxit this existence – I am going home
For me there's no tomorrow, for me there's no today
My work is done, I will walk away...
Deeper into darkness, deeper I fell
When I close my eyes I see myself burn in hell
Anointed in blood, crowned by the damned
The tongue of doom, forever I am
I am a demon, an angel, the voice of the insane
Messenger of light and bringer of pain
When my inner voice command I obey
It controls me, like a master his slave
My eyes they mirror my soul
Black, empty, senseless and cold
I've lost the lust for life – Leave me alone
I will wxit this existence – I am going home
For me there's no tomorrow, for me there's no today
My work is done, I will walk away...
4. Odium Generis Humani
Hark to my voice, I speak with the serpent's tongue
I've denounced the mindless flocks to take the final plunge
Into the secret pitchblack depths, where burning fury reigns
That special place within myself of hatred, rage and pain
I've unleashed the beast, and now I come for thee
I am the force, the bringer of your demise
With the fury of a thousand storms I'll end your feeble cries
I'll take away your dreams, your worthlesslives I'll reap
Now hear these words that heave the earth while the cattle mourns and weeps
Death's scythe shall sing – Embrace the suffering
Misantrophy so deep in me
I hate every single one of you, can't you see?
So bleed for me, please die for me
Odium Generis Humani
Death's scythe shall sing – Embrace the suffering
Misantrophy so deep in me
I hate every single one of you, can't you see?
So bleed for me, please die for me
Odium Generis Humani
My wish for thee, death and disease
And not even then shall you be free
So bleed for me, please die for me
Odium Generis Humani
5. The Darkest Road
What is wrong, what is right? I worship the night
Into the darkness I wander
Bathing my skin in the fullmoon light
In this my final hour, in this my final rite
I hunger for the eternal silence
To drown in the perpetual sleep
To take control and to finally seal my fate
All living fills me with hate, so deep...
I walk alone – The darkest road
I walk alone...
I walk alone – Life dethroned
I was born unknown, I die alone...
What is false, what is true? Deep within you
When everything comes to an end
Praise it, embrace it, the everlasting night
In this final hour, in this your final rite
Walk alone – The darkest road
Walk alone...
Walk alone – Life dethroned
Born unknown, die alone...
What is wrong, what is right? I've chozen the night
Into the darkness I wander
Bathing my skin in the fullmoon light
In this my final hour, in this my final fight
I walk alone – The darkest road
I walk alone...
I walk alone – Life dethroned
I was born unknown, I die alone...
6. Way Of The Rope
With each single breath, I pray for death
I curse my day of birth, I hate this stinking earth
I walk the path of self-destruction
Just like your worthless kind, I too was blind
But now that I'm awake, this world fills me with hate
I've cast aside all false illusions
No more a servent nor a puppet on strings
The time has come for rebellion
This burden has far too long weighed heavy on me
Release my soul through a rope and a tree
With each step of mine, I cross the line
Into where light is dark, and death is the spark
That ignites my satisfaction
Oh to enter the sweetness of oblivion
Dark is the path that I wander
I curse your prophets, these proclaimers of hope
My mind is set, I am finally free
I shun this mortal coil and choose the way of the rope
On this my final day, I walk away
My body hanging cold
All hail the gallow's pole
The rope entwined brings me salvation
7. Plutonium Reveries
Oh glorious father I call upon
Your blinding winds
Engulf this world with your nuclear fire
Come forth and end this charade
Missiles shall fly
Upon the black wings of destiny
Brought forth by artillery
Into the womb of mankind
Punishing fire I greet thee
Come silence this world with your roar
Plutonium reveries – Open damnation's door
Punishing fire I greet thee
Come silence this world with your roar
Plutonium reveries – And prayers of war
Radiant demon come cleanse me with your acid rain
Pollute this earth with your poisonous breath
Come forth and end this charade
Uleash your venom and bless us with death
Missiles shall fly
Upon the black wings of destiny
Brought forth by artillery
Erasing mankind
Punishing fire I greet thee
Come silence this world with your roar
Plutonium reveries – Open damnation's door
Devouring flames I beseech thee
Ensure life to return no more
Plutonium reveries – And prayers of war
8. Feeding Moloch
Scornful cancer of the earth, I challenge thee
Strong as the tallest mountain,
I will not break
The blackness in my putrid heart,
you can not see
Born unto this filthy world
For no reason but one: To kill your breed
The hunt is on, the scent's been caught,
now I stalk my prey
Whipped into a murderous state
With halos pure and free from sin
Now little piglet let me in
I will steal your young from their cradles
Where you thought that they were safe
From their peaceful sleep and into the night
Towards the blood-drenched realms to feed the flames
Rend the flesh
So sweet and innocent
I heed to your call (I'm burning them all)
Feeding Moloch
Moloch, oh Moloch I call upon thee
I bring you gifts of atrocities
The sound of breaking bones
And the grinding of teeth
Moloch has awoken to feed
Devourer of infants come forth and bless me
With this killing spree I aim to please
Your spiritual essence now embodied in me
The blood of babies smeared on my cheeks
The finest piglet of them all
His severed head nailed up on my wall
I will steal your young from their cradles
Where you thought that they were safe
From their peaceful sleep and into the night
Towards the blood-drenched realms to feed the flames
Rend the flesh
So sweet and innocent
I heed to your call (I'm burning them all)
Feeding Moloch
9. Harvest
Behold the crown of creation
Worthy of nothing but scorn
Failed abortions that never
should have been born
Liars
Two-faced, spiteful and vile
Your true self well hidden behind
A poisonous smile
Deceiver
No deed shall go unnoticed,
Unpunished nor be undone
The hope for reprisal is what
makes my body go on
Kind words that reek of betrayal
from tongues that drip of lies
One hand reached out while the other
is hiding a knife
Deceit for a Lifetime has taken its toll
An emotional void, I feel numb and cold
You're all dead to me now
and has been for long
The time has come to reap what you've sown
Scum
I detest all of your kind
Forever you'll be the greatest travesty
The essence of humanity
You failure
The equivalent of slime
A tragic breed, not more than disease,
so stay away from me
Deceit for a Lifetime has taken its toll
An emotional void, I feel numb and cold
You're all dead to me now
and has been for long
The time has come to reap what you've sown
This harvest is heavy and bitter it seems
In tainted soil it has grown
These words are its venom and my gift to thee
So choke on them now and leave me be
A sorry excuse for a human
A complete and utter disgrace
Not having the courage to speak up to my face
Deceit for a Lifetime has taken its toll
An emotional void, I feel numb and cold
You're all dead to me now
and has been for long
The time has come to reap what you've sown
This Harvest is heavy and bitter it seems
In tainted soil it has grown
These words are its venom in its purest form
So choke on them now, yes harvest the storm
