Ceremony Of Opposites / Rebellion (2001)

01. Black Trip
I've chosen the dark, I've chosen the night
I've lost hope of loving a day of life
The shades of night belong to me
I am at one with hell![[metal-lyrics.com]](images/xparent.png "[metal-lyrics.com]")
Dead inside, I watch the time pass
I await the coming of my day
My journeys are always within me
There where is found the bottomless pit
Where, there in I plunge, always a little deeper
There, in that other world where only unity is harmony
Sheltered from the regard and the rules of men
There colour is absent, light is black
Enemies of the sun, the phantoms of the shadows
Have taught me to delight in horror
Faces without eyes, and silent lips
Float in the immensity of empty space
A sweet melancholy fills my heart
Life as a whole seems absurd
Silence is so pure, so profound that it intoxicates
The emptiness, annihilates all
And nothingness takes it place

02. Celebration Of The Fourth
Oh purificator fire, that burns in me
Rekindle my courage, give me your force
Blow, northerly wind, come, wind of death
Storms, hurricanes, be at my side
By water, by air, by fire, by earth
Oh purificator water, essence of life
Mirror of time, drown the lies
Earth, mother's man
Disembowelled by your sons
From your blood of fire
Will rise the chaos
By water, by air
By fire, by earth

03. Son Of Earth
Hideous louse!
The face deformed by horror
By the fear of life's duties
By the anguish of the unknown
-Born in bloodand tears -
You'll bleed and cry when the day you die
Welcome to the world of the living
Here's your supreme punishment
Look at the wound of life
That only death will be able to heal
Oh! bulged tummy women
Oh! deformed body women
From your filthy womb It's death to whom you give birth
Hideous louse!
The face deformed by horror
By the fear of the nothingness of death
By the anguish of the unknown
Welcome to the kingdom of the dead
Here's your promised reward
Looks on you to close again
The great vagina of the earth

05. Mask Of The Red Death
Sickness born with life
She is careful and patient shadow
Man's faithful enemy
Unceasingly transformed, rebaptized
Behind a different mask
I know it's always the same face,
Always the same eyes greedy for agony
Always the same compassionate ears
Listening to our moans,
To our heartbeats
Passive and disinterested
Like an infidel wife
This cold and wet mouth
Will give us the very last kiss
Death is red
For those who experience her torments
Bound to death like a daughter to her mother
She gives her mass graves overflowing
Of sketched life, of projects and hopes
What's good to see her so active
Abandoned, in the arms of another plague
Humanity slowly disappears
Someone prays, some others cry
What's good to see her so active

06. Baphomet's Throne
Each blaspemy is another stone to the edifice of your glory
I want to be the rock on which you'll build your church
Am I the son you've been waiting for?
Am I the chosen one?
To be your messiah on earth
And to sit at your left in hell
I've always ignored the doubt
Answers are in the questions
Show me the way to the Baphomet's throne...
Guide my hand, light my path
My mouth will speak with your words,
I'll make statements with your orders
I'll be the supreme insult
Which will forevermore soil the image of god
I'll be your revenge, I'll be your victory
Guide my hand, light my path
Show me the way,
To reach one day the Baphomet's throne...

07. Flagellation
Pleasure in pain
Desire of mortification
To achieve the extreme
To know the ultimate
To be a slave for a moment
The body offered up to cruelty
To the lash which whips on the skin
Which slashes the flesh, lacerates the back
To feel the blood, thick and warm
Flow over my wounds
Flagellation...
To thrust aside the limits
To say "Yes" to death
Without fear, without remorse
To give up oneself to torture
Punishment and reward
The whip is ambiguous
It distills vice
In a perverse refinement
To be a slave for a moment
The body offered up to cruelty
To the lash which whips on the skin
Which slashes the flesh, lacerates the back

08. Crown
If eyes are the mirror of the soul
You will find in mine the scorn and apathy
You will read my hatred as in a curs'd book
You will see yourself as I see you
It is a mirror sombre and opaque
Which protects me, which stifles me
A great ditch around the heart
Which rejects, which estranges me
There is a world in my head
A dead world where nothing lives
And it is there I am, too far,
Far too far to be rejoined
A crown of thorns is still a crown
I am a king in a kingdom of suffering
I have taken my time to reach this stage
I have taken pains to torture myself
To descend, to descend
Into pain, I exist
And if my brain is numbed
The thorn in my flesh
Can overcome apathy
There is glory in humiliation
A throne to be taken, a crown to win
I have no more tears,
And my smile has lost its brilliance
I have forgotten who I was,
I have killed my emotions
Crushed, empty, weary,
Always standing, I am a tree
Awaiting the lightning

09. To Our Martyrs
Reign of fear, of war,
Of silence, of resignation
Under the rules of the book of lies
Trawling the wrong path
Led like cattle
Never try to understand, accept, obey
Follow followers
And forget who you are
What's a lifestyle, to live for others
To share all with everybody
To answer love to hate
Never try to understand, accept, obey
Follow followers
And forget who you are
Take each single insult and injury
As a present, as a spiritual gold
To by your place in heaven
I spit at your god's face
I piss on the cross
I vomit on the holy bible
I shit on the blessed whore and her bastard son
I desecrate, crush and destroy
All which is sacred, all which is blessed
I've found the one who lives in me
Brothers and sisters
Time for change is coming
Bells for revenge strike the end of times
By faith, by force
We'll walk toward the light
And forever be our own god

10. Ceremony Of Opposites
The top becomes the bottom
The fantasy becomes reality
The conceptions change
The landmarks dissolve
And all becomes intermingled
To flirt with the despicable
In a trance without end
Where the ice burns
Like glowing embers
And where one shatters
By fits and starts of sperm
The morale of men
Serve another god
Lose another dream
Sentiments imprison and leave
Their victims without defense
Love is a poison which
Flourishes in the heart of the weak
From the lowerworld we direct
The attraction of the distasteful
Makes us ignore the vile
Since only from below
Can one better see the heights

11. Rebellion
Two alone in a sack of skin
Playing the role of slave master of war
That is my lot
Separated but still united
Bound to emptiness, bound to flesh
That is my hell
Penitent rebel
Riding the ether or grovelling in the mud
I know how little is the value of that which has a price
Rebellion!
Instinct is not the path of man
Rebellion!
Renunciation is not the divine way
Two alone in a sack of skin
Playing the role of slave master of war
That is my lot
Separated but still united
Bound to emptiness, bound to flesh
Captured and tortured
I don't want this, I want to leave
How can one go when one has already arrived?
Flight is an illusion
And even triumph is bitter
When only the battle is counted
I know how little is the value of that which has a price
Rebellion!
Instinct is not the path of man
Rebellion!
Renunciation is not the divine way
REBELLION!

13. I Love The Dead
I love the dead before they're cold,
Their blueing flesh for me to hold.
Cadaver eyes upon me see nothing.
I love the dead before they rise,
No farewells, no goodbyes.
I never even knew your now-rotting face.
While friends and lovers mourn your silly grave.
I have other uses for you, Darling.
I love the dead,
I love the dead,
I love the dead.
I love the dead,
I love the dead,
I love the dead.
I love the dead,
I love the dead,
I love the dead.
I love the dead,
I love the dead,
I love the dead.
Yes I do.
I love the dead,
I love the dead,
I love... the dead.
Wir sind aus Kraft, und Licht
Wir sind aus Kraft, und Licht
- Ich bin nur Fleisch und Blut
Unsere Gegenwart ist deine Zukunft
- Es gibt keine Zukunft
Wir haben Zeit, wir geben Hoffnung
- Es gibt keinen Hoffnung...
Du bist der Frage deren Antwort wir haben
- Es gibt keinen Hoffnung
- Es gibt keine Zukunft
- Ich bin nur Fleisch und Blut
Du bist der Frage deren Antwort wir haben
- Es gibt keinen Hoffnung
Wir geben Hoffnung, wir haben Zeit
Unsere Gegenwart ist deine Zukunft
- Ich bin nur Fleisch und Blut
Wir sind aus Kraft, und Licht
Wir sind aus Kraft, und Licht
