Lyrics

Bethor - my dreams thou infest
Thy magick enchants my blade
My sword from the black meteor
At the drakest hour of night
Take my gifts!
Bethor - demon of proud jupiter
I kneel to thy black altar-stone
My legions wait to awake in this night
And by thy blessings, they shall rise
Reveal thy powers!

I circle the constellation
Devote to the ancestral nightsky
I release my spirit in thy shine
As the time of thy birth is night

Hear my cries!!!

Cold-ardent shine of thine
Thou shall inflame the pyre in me
To burn all feelings of the heart
And to render back blood with blood..

Cold-freezing shine of thine
Thous shall awake the powers in me
To darken the sky at day
And to drown the stars at night

And he came, roaring like a mountain-storm
A cyclone out of the everblack night
Sweeping fiercely into my warmless heart
That I shall sacrifice to his shrine

Entomb my corpse in the twilight
While my soul enters the void
Spill forth my precious blood and set me free..

And thus, chained to the very bloodthirst
Growing stronger in each fulmoon-night
And my call reached the tombs in the moonlight
And they opened by unseen hands
Grim spirits blessed by the aura of the comsos
Rise forth to fulfill my demonic deeds
Writhing..

Legions of mine, countless spectres
Conquer the lands, conquer all thrones
Let the sun never rise again
Until time devours this millennium
Fire shall consume all traces I left behind
But let all who crossed my path remember in fear:
The universe will fall to earth
And they all will be dead, but I never... dead will be!

War!!!

The force of my thoughts is invincible
And my sword is nourished by blood
From the time that was when battles raged
And now this time returns

Bethor - thy wrath be unleashed
And focused by my aural shape
The blackness of the night reflects
In the ornaments of thy shrine
Take my gifts!
Bethor - my soul thou hold in hate
Since I gave thee the gift of my heart
My chest is empty, no blood ever flows
But I share the vision of my own rebirth
Reveal thy powers!

A bethorian shrine was the womb
For my soul destined to remain
Now the time of retaliation is near
I behold my recreation through shadows
In the fires of hell..
"And again, the universe will spill human blood..."
