Unholy - 1999 Gracefallen

Like Wept Mother, So Wept Son
Entered The World Not Welcomed
Tears Shed In Pain Never Dry
All My Days I Behold Her Cry

"nothing You Say
Worth Hearing
All That You Do
Brings Me Back To You
The Absence Of Love I'm Sensing
Is It Me Is It You
Makes Me Bitter Makes Me Hate
And I Hate
And I Hate!!!"

Sucked Not Love But Bitterness
In Her Arms Out Of Her Breast
As The Black World Fell Apart
Fear Built House In An Unborn Heart
Wise Is The One Who Dares To Hear
Demons Howling In His Head
At The Gate My Allies Come
Strike Dead The Evil Ones

In Wilderness...
Wolves Howl Me My Lullaby
Crow Shrieks A Fairy Tale
Owl Speaks Wise Thoughts
In My Head, In My Sleep...
"dream My Earthly Child Dream
The Eagle And The Serpent
Will Guard Your Sleep"

Out Of The House Across The Yard
To The Garden Where Memories Are Cast
Seek Beloved The Dearest One
I See The Gate I No Longer Run
Now Drum Is Broken And Hell Is Loose
In A Tree Of Wisdom They Put A Noose
Chaos I Breath It's My Last Sigh
I'll Hang This Child Into Tree Of Life

[lyrics By Jan Kuhanen]

Love Built This Passion
Wrath Wrought It Strong
Know Your Place, Noble One
Go Harvest Babylon

Can't Hold Down This Cardinal Pain
Cannot Bear This Searing Flame
Hate Myself Raging Mad
Fear Myself As My Day Turns Black

"can You Imagine How It Feels
When I Come To You
Can You Imagine How It Feels
When I'm Unleashed, When I'm Pure"

It's The Spirit Of Necrofilian Age
To Praise Lifeless To Praise Decay
Broke My Rapture Took Away The Pain
Turned To Lifeless, Wicked, Lame

"can You Imagine How It Feels
When I Come To You
Can You Imagine How It Feels
When I'm Unleashed, When I'm Pure"

So Pure...

Rejoice You Men!!!
The Bitch Is In Heat, Again!!!

[lyrics By Jan Kuhanen]

O'youth Seek Not Others
For You're Seeking Hell
Waste Not Young Life In Vain
Sight Of Flesh So Tender
Only Brings Heartache And Pain
It's All Mirage In Desert Of Vanity
"o'youth Seek Not Others
But Yourself - Seek Well!
Only Silence May Reveal True Warriors Heart"

Seek Not - Be One To Be Sought For
Whatever Is Brought To You - You Take
"never Thank For Pleasures Not Asked For"
In Solitude The Strong Shall Flourish
In Bloom Is Loner's Heart
Envy Not Others - It's Their Part
O'youth Take My Word
True Wisdom Is Voice Of Tranquil Heart
Those Restless In Youth Are Never Truly Born

Sitting Still In Circle Of Time
Watching Days To Break, Moons To Rise
Alive - Still Yet To Be Born
With My Ally I'll Return -newborn!
"dream My Earthly Child Dream
The Eagle And The Serpent
Will Guard Your Sleep"

Riding With The Drum
Flying On The Whirling Wind
On The Crest Of Clouds
The Worlds Where I'm The Dweller
All Rest On My Palm!!!

[lyrics By Jan Kuhanen]

World Has Melted Into Flow Of Thoughts
Secret Hopes Are Hidden Inside My Maelstrom
Pale Face In The Depths Of Reality
For Ever And Ever, Life's A Stroll In Minor Key
Sympathy Of Cosmic Powers
Rest In The Arms Of Sky
Self-sacrificing Volition
Lost Into Chasm Of Lies
Burned Into Collective Trance
Flagrant Embrance Of Timeless Dance
Burned Into Collective Trance
Flagrant Embrance Of Forgotten Land

In The Rapture Of Night
The Wind Is Blowing Thru' The Head
Looks Blindly Lashing
Deadly Shapes Take Their Final Step
Rapacious Dawn
Sends Night Into Damnation
To Face Itself, To Born To Die
To Feel Its Spirit, To Discern A World
When Truth Turns Its Head
Karma Retires Into Its Face
When Truth Turns Its Head
Silence Is Only What You Can Say
When Truth Turns Its Head
End Of Civilisation
When Truth Turns Its Head
It's Time For A New Breath

[lyrics By Pasi Aijo]

In Craving For The Second Sight
I Possess The Privilege Of Pain
Perpetual Motion Of Perpetual Unrest
Never Ending Search For The Innermost Ring

Realms Where You're A Dweller
Are Sacredness Beyond Belief
Ecstasy Of Purifying Flame
Once Mortal Flesh Now Divine

"worship Me You Loathsome Ones
Untouchable Is The Unholy One
Wolflike Vigour Of Bearsome Mind
Ecstasy Beyond Your Serpent Tongues"

Blind Men Of Saturated Age
Praise Tradition Of Fraudulent Faith
I Never Shook The Wolf Off Me
Never Forsake The Lion Within

In Craving For The Second Sight
I Possess The Privilege Of Pain
Perpetual Motion Of Perpetual Unrest
Never Ending Search For The Innermost Ring

Realms Where You're A Dweller
Are Sacredness Beyond Belief
Ecstasy Of Purifying Flame
Once Mortal Flesh Now Divine

It's The Ring Of The Lupus
And I'm Within
Howling With Brother Kyon
To Sirius And Beyond
Nile Drawn In The Velvet Of Skies
In The Sign Of Dragon

We'll All Pass Thru' The Gate
On The Golden Ring Of Saturn
On A Journey To A Mother Star
To The Shores Of Primeval Sea
To The Water That Once Came To Be

[lyrics By Jan Kuhanen]

I Searched You There
In The Reek Of The Night
In My Hour Of Need
You Bereaved Me Of Thy Consolation
Mercy I Sought I Never Found In You

Where Were You!?!?!

Prayed For You In My Plight
Lonely Roaming In Search Of You
You Turned The Lion Loose Into The Night

On The Back Of The Pale
He Loves Me Like A Beast Loves Its Prey
I'm Only Passing Thru'
No One May Stay

Ride Cowboy, Ride, For One Last Time
The Lion Is On The Loose
In The Night

[lyrics By Jan Kuhanen]

No Lord No Other Than Mine. No Me Without My Lord
Out Of Lord Deliverance. Deliverance Of Golden Cage
No Evil Not Without Lust. No Lust Not Without Need
No Need Without Fear. Out Of Terror Gods Breed.

No Rest For The One That Seeks!!!
Is It Hope? Is It Fear That Drives Me?
Wicked Are The Weak In Their Meekness
And Hope - The Evil They Adhere To
No Rest For The One That Seeks!!!
Desperate One - Haunted Me!

No Rest For Seeker! So Many Souls To Skin!!!

No Evil Without Lust. No Lust Without Need
No Need Without Fear. Soul Skinner Fear Within
Fear Of Truth - Mother Of Deception,
Deception - Father Of Lies
Brothers Of Mischief - Brothers Of Lie -
Dream Of Reason - Triumph Of Will

"thus Spake Elektra. In The Heart Of Darkness. Under The Sun Of Torment.
To The Capitals Of The World. In The Name Of The Victims.
I Shall Push Out All Seed I Have Taken Within Me.
I Shall Turn The Milk Of My Breasts To Deadly Venom.
I Shall Take Back The World I Gave Birth To.
Suffocate The World Between My Thighs. Bury It To My Shame.
Down With The Bliss Of Submission. Long Live Wrath, Contempt, Mutiny, Death.
When A Woman Walks Across The Bedroom.
With Butcher's Knife In Her Hand, Then You Shall Know The Truth."

[(blissmaster's Ball In The Hall Of Twilight) Opus 36, Bb-minor]

And The Visionary Paints
Black On Black Grey On Grey
It's Sad Farewell And Chronos Won't Wait
Never To Return To Your Dustbound Shrine
All That You Gathered Buys You No Time
Spirit Of Unrest Fear Of The Sublime
Grave Mystery Of Mortal's Life
In The End Will The Spirit Ever Rise???

If Freedom Becomes Your Dungeon
Reach Deep Within Yourself
For The Soul Of Hidden Erotic
To Set Self Recklessly Free
For Who's Right And Who's Wrong
In A Merry-go-round Of Passion
In The House Of Truth And Lie
Only Fear Of Self Annihilates The Soul

Touch And Like A Torch I'll Burn
Cast Upon Your Endlessness
Lightning Moment Of Rapture
My Hour Of Passion And Grace
Joyfully I Shall Perish
In Longing For Your Bliss

All Those Minor Deaths I've Died
All Those Times I've Rested
Weary Upon Your Eternity
Exhausted By Your Tenderness
Flame Of Lust Extinguished In The Ocean Of Love

Here Is The Wisdom: Life Is Coming And Going
And Becoming Of The Ones Into One
Symmetry Of Souls Harmony Under The Sun

[lyrics By Jan Kuhanen]
