Nightwing


"Bloodtide (XXX)"

Wings of the night
Has turned light into shadows
And through the deep forest
Only the mist prevails
Carried forth by the whispering wind
And in a glade of the deepest part of the forest
The black pounding heart of a thousand people's fears
Thirteen figures perform the most obscure dance
Around an altar of stone while the eye of Satan
Beholds from its high seat in the starless sky
Dark eyes stare with carnal bloodlust
At the fettered virgins helpless struggle
Claws and teeth shall desecrate the temple of her soul
And pierce the night with her cries
The sacred blood of god's creation flow
As the eyes of the creatures woefully glow
As gleaming red as the hair of the beasts
Dreadful shadows plunge through the veils of the mist at their screaming prey
Claws and teeth shall desecrate the temple of her soul
And force her spirit beyond the gates of black divinity
The sacred blood of god's creation drips
And run down the throats of the creatures who open vein sips
And the moon glows - As pale as the skin of the beasts

Three crosses break her skin
A soul for Satan to win..
Three crosses for the price of blood
That so triumphantly brought death to the son of god
Three crosses for the breed of Cain
That throughout time in blood will reign
Three crosses for the abomination from Nod
Who so fiercely drank his brother's blood
Three crosses for the brethren of Judas
All praise the black deity
So fearsome great and mighty
Mark our spirits with thine blessing dark divine
And through our eyes your powers all will shine
Upon the forthcoming millennium
The sacred blood of god's creation is gone
And her soul is now in the hands of the horned one
Who laughs as bloodfreezing as the gaze in the eyes of the beasts

Three crosses break her skin
A soul for Satan to win
Three crosses for the price of blood
That so triumphantly brought death to the sun of god
Three crosses for the breed of Cain
That throughout time will reign
Three crosses for the abomination from Nod
Who so fiercely drank his brother's blood
Three crosses...


Of Hell's Fire

I hear the evil calling of the spirits of the dark
And see the beauty and the powers of the devil's mark
The night always calls my name
Gaze into my eyes, and see the shadows of the flames
Of Hell's fire.. Torture and pain I desire
Let the flames reach higher.. And lick the realms of the Nazarene liar
Dark reflections sweep the night, a call from the depths of the earth
Antichrist is raising the image of Him to which Hell gave birth
Necromantical chants are brought forth by the winds of the North
The message of destruction from Satan and his court
The toll of damnation's bell.. Open the gates to Hell
I can feel the delightful smell.. Of rotten souls who in darkness dwell
Thou - The archangel who fell from the heavenly empire
Thou - The hand that wound with evil and unholy desire
Thou - The black lord of The Unlight to which we all belong
From the deepest part of Gehenna, tormented souls sing damnation's song

Write my name with the slaughtered angels' blood
As I step in the face of the fallen soldiers of god
All the children of jehova will always be our prey
Beyond the pearly gates we shall crush, destroy, and slay
Grant us the first power.. Up from Hell we storm at the witching hour
Where we ride, the soul turns sour..
The evil eye behold from Hell's highest tower
The power of christ does not compel me
Lucifer - I kneel before thee
Join the forces of Satan, for you will see
Grim and dark - The future is going to be
Of Hell's fire..


Slay the Nazarene

It was predicted that with every tool
That the romans brought pain to you, thy fool
People to your god should be lead
While our warriors lost and scattered - Fled
You should be the king on earth
Bastard son of virgin birth
Slay the Nazarene.. In christian eyes supreme - You will die
Slay the Nazarene.. Your might is just a dream - You shall die
Slay the Nazarene.. Tortured you will scream - You must die
Slay the Nazarene.. Slay the Nazarene - Die, die
On your command, man should do what god wilth
Glorification of holy christian slime and filth
Your vision of your crusaders' bravery
That turned the wicked out of their slavery
You should be the king of kings
But now feel the embrace of Lucifer's wings
Slay the son of god.. Drown him in his own blood - Meet your death
Slay the son of god.. This is your sinners' flood - We praise your death
Slay the son of god.. Scum of inferior blood - Hail your death
Slay the son of god.. Slay the son of god - Death death death
Now glance upon your reachings
In the pits of lost realities
Behold the righteous ones before Satan at their knees
Slay the scum of earth.. Whoreson of infidel birth - You are dead
Slay the scum of earth.. Your cross is nothing worth - Your teachings are dead
Slay the scum of earth.. Teared apart with sadistic urge - Your god is dead
Slay the scum of earth.. Slay the scum of earth - Dead dead dead
Humiliated as no other, seek patience
At the weak chest of your father
I.N.R.I. - Crucified you shall die
Mocked and spitted at - You feeble rat
Slay the Nazarene.. In christian eyes supreme - You will die
Slay the Nazarene.. Your might is just a dream - You shall die
Slay the Nazarene.. Tortured you will scream - You must die
Slay the Nazarene.. Slay the Nazarene - DIE DIE DIE

SLAY... THE... NAZARENE!!!


Nightwing

Nightwing.. - Fly across the sky
And cast your shadow over those who before dawn will die
Beyond a great vast forest lies the desolate land
Ruled by men, controlled by Satan's hand
Haunted by the vultures which are the devil's own
Craving for the ever-blood-dripping saints' stone
And with dark rites in the night's blackest hour
Nightmares strife for the darkside blessing and the higher power
And the mantel of power should be shouldered by the firstborn
The ones who crave evil and all kinds of human feelings scorn
He who drank his father's blood and leaves his foes ripped and torn
And which the king halls up high since long forlorn
Have you ever wondered what's beyond the human sphere?
To behold life through death's dark veils from the demon's lair
To stand above the eternal rest and every night rise up from your tomb
And behold life like the ones who with teeth
Were born from their mother's womb
For I am death, and so you shall be
When on the Nightwing, you ride with me
The warlock's diciple, enchanter of ghouls
With exposed fangs from which the blood drools

Nightwing.. - Storm through eternity
And rip asunder those who fall for the human mockery
Within the massive castlewalls lurks the evil now again
Which with wise men made a trust
By giving the blood of god's best men
He who possesses the gift which sends shivers down the spine
And awaken people who sleep away from the mortal world's decline
He is the fierce creature which the angels fear no chase
Who see pain as passion and lives at war with the mortal race
His tomb is for any horse to cross like a mountain step
He has come to awake the devil from his sleep
The warlock's deciple, enchanter of ghouls
With exposed fangs from which the blood drouls

Pulled from our frail existence, by the claws of death
To defy the scythe and feel the reaper's breath
To walk the tunnel backwards, when your first life has been slain
And when all mortal feelings, have ceased to cause you pain
For I am darkness, and so you shall be
As on the Nightwing, you ride with me..


Dreams of Blood and Iron

The ravagings through his homeland gave the dragon the realm of Sehes
By saving his people from the turks and powers fatal to the flesh
But the turkish sultan Murad saw this as a treason to their deal
And swore to his god that one day the dragon's fate he would seal
Across the donau with peace in mind, the three of them ride
Dracul, his father, and brother were captured on the flood's other side
The dragon swore his soul to the turkish realm of the sand
And left his sons to their fate in the infidel muslim land
As time went to Dracul for humans grew a great disgust
As well as expiring the pleasures of the harems' sinful lust
Deceitfulness, interpidity, and cruelty would become his name
Man or beast, muslim or christian - It would all be the same
Brother Radu won the hearts of the turks and became Murad's own son
While Vlad's powerful innerself would make him king in the long run
But as a thunderbolt from the clearblue sky..
Message that father Dracul had died
Words have arrived that brother Mircea has been captured and buried alive
Dracul swore that his killer, Hunyadi, wouldn't be able to survive
Along with the turks, he turned against the first goal he could see
The wallachian throne ruled by pro-hungarian family Danesti
Two months later Dracul was cast out from rule
By conspiring forces who reared the lion and desired a mule
In fear of the turks and his fathers hungarian slayers
He fled to Moldavia and hoped
That lord Bogdan would answer to his prayers
Lord Bogdan of Moldavia has fallen from rule in a pool of blood
Assassinated by rivalry powermongers to the fathers brother of prince Vlad
Strengthened by promises of his cousins' blood and steel
Dracul now will force his opponents to before him kneel
His father's and brother's killers trust he now will earn
The realm of Transilvania awaits with fear his return
With twenty-thousand crusaders he will drive poles through
Every follower of Danesti ruler Vladislav II


Dracole Wayda

Back in Transilvania to be met by the news
Which struck the christian world as a blaze
Konstantinopel has fallen into the hands of the turks
And the emperor Konstantin is dead
The fear of the turks is growing..
But the sword of Dracul will show the muslims the reaper's face
Vlad now took shelter in Sibiu
So the coloured ones could not manage to get his head

A servant of god, in league with Satan
A christian crusader who made the angels cry
A defender of moral and faith with nature bred by hellspawn
As driven by demonforces, his army the muslims and christians defy

But four years after his departure from the town
Vlad appeared outside town in the forest's cold haze
His wallachian army slaughtered, tortured and plundered Sibiu
As raging demons, terror they spread..
Teared apart, impaled on poles
Now ten-thousand of his countrymen into the afterworld gaze
Maimed and scattered a few survivors, always to remember this day
Out into the night, fled

A servant of god, in league with Satan
A christian crusader who made the angels cry
A defender of moral and faith with nature bred by hellspawn
As driven by demonforces, his army the muslims and christians defy

Dracul now repair his castle
Which the tartars, centuries ago, made a rampaged place
"His clothes had to work 'til the clothes fell from their bodies"
An old chronicle said..
From Poenari, Vlad rules with an iron hand
And his strife for power leaves a blood-stained trace
The boyars were gathered for a meeting
And soon, on poles, they dying - Bled
To cherish the soulds of his subjects
In fear of divine punishment and Hell's embrace
Dracul raised abbeys and supported the church
As a sign to the goodwill he god offered
But the mortals, he by orgies of bloodshed and torture made clear
That they Vlad had to praise
Eternal death to thee who had the nerve
To not the voivod and inquisitor dread..

A servant of god, in league with Satan
A christian crusader who made the angels cry
A defender of moral and faith with nature bred by hellspawn
As driven by demonforces, his army the muslims and christians defy


Kaziklu Bey

Kaziklu Bey - Devil's son, chosen one
After the forth crusade, all christian piety is gone
And the greatest commander..
Against the muslim turks you have now become
Kaziklu Bey - Stormbringer of fright
Now show the world your might
Impale your every foe with delight
And let the frail decend into eternal night
Gather your armies for the decisive fight
Your elite state is now in site
Storming in fury with ten-thousand men
The reach the muslims, a lesson again
In the port of Giurgiu their ambush will fail
To Wallachia in chains, the turks now grow pale
With poles through their bodies, they all now will die
And the sultan Muhammed, in anguish, will cry
At the forthcoming winter, the war since long planned
To spread the religion which the turks banned
Went on all the way to the Black sea
Where overwhelming armies forced Dracul to flee
Kaziklu Bey - The lord of bloodshed
The infidel you dismembered..
Rise and conquer with your army
You people from the turkish yoke liberated
After the battle at Giurgiu
The deathfigure was 23809 turkish ears, noses, and heads
By poison the wells and burning the land
Dracul only left ashes to the men from the sand
While the peasants joined Dracul
The turks heard the cry of wolves
..And only saw vultures in the sky
At the terror night, Dracul strikes the starved turks
And killed thousands and thousands to complicate their works
Next morning, the turks found Tirgoviste in flames
And a forest of impaled men with turkish names
Then the sultan gave up his conquering plan
"What can we do against such a man?"


Deme Quaden Thyrane

On a cold misty October morning
In the year of the lord - 1462
The horses appeared on the hills of Brasov
The process of damnation would soon begin
Dracul would show the world how to correct
The rumanians which lacked strength, or showed disrespect
The following story is just one of many on Dracul's way
To outwipe every opposer who didn't him blindly obey
He killed by crushing them under the wheels of barrows
Others were undressed and skinned alive to their very bowels
And others were still impaled upon wooden poles
Or fried over the glowing embers placed under them

The cold wind of death follows in his way
Deme quaden thyrane..

Some of them were run through with stakes
That impaled their heads, breasts, and behind
Until the pole was driven through the mouth
To ellude the lack of any cruelty
He drew stakes through the breast of mothers
And then he went on by impaling their infants upon theese

The cold wind of death follows in his way
Deme quaden thyrane..

So many have to die by the horrible ways
Of torturing them with such instruments
That can only be invented by the most nefarious cruelty possessed
Uttermost dreadful tyrant that ever existed
But the hungarian king Mathias Corvinos now Dracul betrayed
And for twelve long years, Vlad now in the king's prison stayed
But the blood of blood that Dracul in prison tied
Made him king in Wallachia again with Mathias as an allied
With lord Stefan Bathori's army and military skill
Dracul now will make all saches, boyars, Danestis, and turks blood chill


Anno Domini 1476

...But since Stefan failed his word
And let Dracul's enemies come from every side
Dracul has no choice, but with his two-hundred men into death ride
Buring the last battle, the turkish lines began to scatter
And Vlad rode up on a hill to see the inferior blood splatter
But treasonous boyars ambushed the lion to his blood spill
Dracul fought bravely, but the twentieth boyar would be his last kill
When the turks found his body, they cut off his head
Which was stuck on a pole in Konstantinopel
To show the muslim world that Kaziklu Bey was dead
The night of the lord impaler's demise
The worst storm man could remember struck the land
Kaziklu Bey was dead, but not gone
And by thunder, his foes now again could feel his hand...
