Frozen Shadows Empires de Glace 1. Au seuil des ténèbres La douce morsure du vent arctique se déposa Sur mon visage livide, intouchépar les âges Mes yeux de rubis brillèrent dans ces cryptes Où règne le silence Mon domaine éternal M'enfonçant das la nuit je cherche réconfort Rêvant à mon départ loin de ce monde mortel Là où les ombres dantesques vers l'infini Se tordent et se profilent Au seuil des ténèbres Quand des pores de mon âme s'écoule la tristesse Toujours dans tes replis je puis trouver refuge Ô toi ma mêre que je révère Ta splendeur sera toujours sans égale Une seule pensée hante mon esprit Ma perdre dans ton sein obscur Ce passage si craint et qui pourtant m'est si cher Seules les âmes pures peuvent me l'ouvrir Archange destructeur je m'envole pour trouver Des vies à étouffer pour briser mon exil Rapportant le souvenir de ce portail maudit Qu'un jour je franchirai 2. Adrift in the Sepulchral Snow Embers of the sun drenched by my eyes I feed on my hatred for the light (Yet) my sempiternal tears I would not douse Silent was the scream crossing my blue lips I cursed this feeble shell of mine Dreaming over the coldest hills How could I ever join the hunt A mortal stone around my neck When the forest choked on my frozen self No axe would ever chip my flesh away Others would soon follow and wage my war But tjose were of the kind breathing the Art I would remain untouched, martyr of a new age A morbid monument to their greater glory Solid tears fled from my eyes My limbs torn by the north frost 3. Return to Supremacy We rose from our dreams down where the light glows dark Transcending the boundaries of darkness We rose from antedilluvian times Emerging from the coldest chasms This is where a new age would be forged Eyes burned the horizons of these frozen landscapes Where once stood our pillar of carnal plenitude Single tears fled from our grief Sculptures of damnation Only one thing crossed our minds Regain our glory past Dark hordes gathered We gazed into the past following our slumber Two milleniums of lies that were soon to be cleansed The heavens we soared by To the nest of light The gates we stormed with fury Their skin so close at hand 4. Forests of Perdition The dense threshold of these woods Is where I longed to sleep Feared by the breed called mankind Cherished by those of the coldest blood To enter those dark and forbidden groves, embrace the Damned A single drop out of my mortal past is what I left behind Shadows froze my soul Under a silent moon Beckoned by the voices of my past To drown in my own perdition Those temples of ice I was allowed to gaze upon Built by hands dissimilar to the ones I called mine Around me shined the red starsthat were burned by the day Those thrones, at last I had found the woods that were without god I saw through eyes that were no longer weak Free of my burdens Trickles of crimson ran down my cheeks My Demon tears Defying all things holy I sketched a grotesque smile We would soon hunt together and tear the lamb apart I had found solace, refuge As the forests closed behind, forever Horns pointing towards heaven I laughed over the wind 5. Coldest Infinity Perenial mourning I would lay to rest The streams of sadness I drowned into I screamed a perfect archetype of misery I drank from the chalice of solitude The quintessence of pain I sipped anew Comfort nor peace could I find So cold, so scared, so empty inside Sempiternal love above only left a sour taste Born into a world of light with a dark soul Dearest Winter my only bride So alone on my mortal path The gates of Hell I longed to cross Dreaming of towers of frost I listened to winds of sorrow whispering my name A soothing hand easing my fears I would find down below My open arms outstretched I smiled at last The caress of the north I felt no more No name was on my lips when I hit the white grounds Laying in a cold pool of ebbing despair One last breath, one last cruel tear And my weary eyes would close forever I faded away where I could never be hurt again Inside the towers of Coldest Infinity
