This is a tale long to live but alas so short to tell
   by the wind and by time, by everything that flees
   A torment of my liking: exploring extremes All thoughts secluded as fear stalks its blooded soil
   in the winding path where a chain now rattles
   with links merely death can break Stains of pride - derelict In feverish visions of agonizing light
   pulsating rhythm unpure
   So pound the drum
   and strike the chords of chaos
   So scream out to the skies:
  
   Of chaos and eternal night
  
   Never is the dark any threat to my existence
   comforting ravens claws grip the stars that fell tonight
   The stealth of infinite beauty
   Nevertheless heaven fell tonight
  
   Racing along with the strangled teardrop
   Life's elixir in benevolent lust
   Slit open the throat that is virtue
   Let fire ravage its caverns with joy
  
   Ardent but silent in twillight resigned
   delivered from virtue in vehement plight
   Yet ask not of your vanity
   (the hooved agitator in your creed)
   Stray across the vault your seed
  
   Concealed cravings must through fulfilment be broken
   Hide no longer behind the veil of unconvincing lies
  
   So pound the drum
   and strike the chords of chaos
   So scream out to the skies:
  
   Of chaos and eternal night
  
   I've seen fires weaving patterns
   forging ornaments - hidden from a world of distress
   Grace through hatred:
  
   Of chaos and eternal night
  
   In shadows now vengeful waiting out your bitter foe
   the mirror distorts
  
   Sinful is the percieving eye
   tearless in nondescript form
   Scarlet secrets tell of nightmarish fear
   Illusions that speak of endless night
  
   A venture in terms of one hazardour journey
  
   Into chaos and eternal night
  
   Deliver me from virtue,
   hidden no more beneath your tender veil of lies
  
   And let 'em all out;
   unseen and sinful...
  
   ....Of chaos and eternal night
