Nosferatu : The Best of Nosferatu: Volume 1: The Hades Years
Teksty
1. WITCHING HOUR
Overland, you could take these lifeless hands in yours,
Breathe into me, things I gave up praying for.
Tired of shadow play, through a darker gaze,
Will you take what I want you to?
Will you forsake things you never should?
It's time. Time to set the world alight.
Set your spirit free,
Come across the sky to me,
Give in to insanity,
The Witching Hour.
Wait for me behind the door,
I'll throw your body to the floor,
We will be apart no more,
The Witching Hour.
Can you feel, the fire that's burning me inside?
As your touch, darkens your betraying smile.
Cast unrest aside, it's time to come alive,
I don't think I need to tell you,
Such a mirrored ride
Set your spirit free,
Come across the sky to me,
Give in to insanity,
The Witching Hour.
Wait for me behind the door,
I'll throw your body to the floor,
We will be apart no more,
The Witching Hour.
2. TORTUROUS
We are burning all the nightmares,
We are rising with the sun,
Now we all stand and face tomorrow,
For too long we've stood alone.
We are coming through the windows,
We are kicking down the doors,
Now we'll no more embrace your darkness,
Your superstition's yours alone.
So torturous,
The blade cuts deep, your tongue still bleeds,
Torturous, Remaining where you hang your prayer.
We are laughing in reflection,
We are setting fire to fear,
Now we'll put our faith in no one,
We don't your second chance.
We are giving rhyme not reason,
We don't need to settle scores,
Now you can take or leave tomorrow,
Your superstition leaves you cold. Leaves you cold.
So torturous,
The blade cuts deep, your tongue still bleeds,
Torturous, Remaining where you hang your prayer.
3. THE NIGHT IS YOUNG (MANIC MIX)
We move in silhouette
Loved in candlelight
Can’t you feel the night is young
Come Dance With The Ghost
Step in through my door
Don’t you know the night is young
In the city lights
A pale reflection’s calling
How we love the night so young
Hanging from horizons eyes
See the faces crystalline
Trace your foot steps, follow through
Down on the ground and kiss those black lips
Back upon you, waiting on
Sound of heartbeats, breathing’s drawn
Tasting your temptation
My dark embraces revelation
Up above the skyline hightime
Look across the evenings cries
So many empty hearts just wasting
Time they don’t have left to kill
The moonlight guides the darkness near
To a place where desire waits
In cold anticipation
The Devil lays down your salvation
4. LUCIFER RISING (PART 2)
Dye your soul with my blood
Oh I’m in your mind
Inside your shattered thoughts of sorrow
Oh don’t leave your life behind
There’s nothing left behind your eyes
Throw back the doors, let me inside
And come tomorrow I’ll turn tonight
Come alive in my blood
Oh I bleed for you
The shadows fall upon your mirror
Oh don’t hide the world from view
We fall into a secret grace
That lies beyond a sacred place
And dawn tomorrow I’ll burn tonight
I see Lucifer Rising, Within your soul
Lucifer Rising, I hear the call
Lucifer Rising, Within your blood
Lucifer Rising, my love
We are the light in darkness
We are the cries of the howling wind
I’m the giver of a tainted mercy
I’m the bringer of eternal life
You’re the angel on bended knees
Take my love, give to me
Your kisses and I promise I’ll be with you again
5. DARKNESS BRINGS
Watching as you turn your eyes to the sky,
Born again through you,
Another second and you lose it all,
Rising up in you,
Hold you down till you can't breathe at all,
Inside you,
And while you sleep he's feeding on the fear,
Burning inside you.
Darkness brings,
The Devil rides on angels wings through the fire.
Won't you dance into the night?
Laugh away the morning light, Come alive!
His darkness bleeds within your heart,
Fallen out of reach,
Sleeps inside you while your soul's on fire,
Waiting by the door.
Still your tears wont end, you suffer his ambition,
Crawling up the walls,
It's such a shame to see your confirmation die in vain,
I bleed in revelations, but it makes me laugh, just the same.
Darkness brings,
The Devil rides on angels wings through the fire.
Won't you dance into the night?
Laugh away the morning light, Come alive!
Keeping faith and the lies you give,
Coming through.
On your knees with the avatars,
Come pouring down.
And the night sings, and your world turns black,
No turning back
Have you lost the will to save your soul,
Believe the dreams that you were sold?
Eternal seas and the resurrection lives.
Darkness brings,
The Devil rides on angels wings through the fire.
Won't you dance into the night?
Laugh away the morning light, Come alive!
Inside me it burns me,
It learns me not to kiss what I could kill.
Don't you long to kiss, what you should never, never kill?
Don't you long to kiss, what you should never, never kill?
(A dialogue between the possessor and the possessed.)
6. ASCENSION
Overdose on darkness in the corridors of fire,
There's a face in the mirror, Of unchained desire.
She's in her house, standing by the door,
You can't go in, you're not welcome anymore.
Standing on the rooftops, soaking by the rain,
Dreaming of the long deceased, never coming back again,
Riding through the darkness, hiding from the sun,
Refuge in the shades below, until the day is done.
Through the hour glass,
Watch my time slip away, Chasing haloes, faces so far away,
And your hands tied to the blade,
Disguised - she's my ascension,
My slow suicide.
She's my ascension, my slow suicide,
I'm chasing heaven, never reach the other side,
Ascension, my slow suicide,
Chase tomorrow, till there's nothing left inside.
Through the hourglass, watch my time slip away,
Chasing haloes, faces so far away,
Can't see, for all the light,
There's two faces, black and scarlet,
Locked between another night.
Standing on the rooftops, soaking by the rain,
Dreaming of the long deceased, never coming back again,
Riding through the darkness, hiding from the sun,
Refuge in the shades below, until the day is done.
Overdose on darkness She's my ascension,
My slow suicide, I'm chasing heaven,
Never reach the other side,
She's my ascension, my slow suicide,
Chasing heroin tonight.
Yeah, ascension, a slow suicide,
Chasing haloes, this is the other side.
Ascension, a slow suicide.
She's my ascension, my slow suicide.
Ascension, my heroin divine. She's my ascension!
7. UNINVITED GUEST (NO OTHER MEDICINE)
I walk with the Devil hand in hand through the dark clouds of sorrow, Run with the dogs of my design.
Purgatory. Alone.
Descend into despair, infesting my soul,
He climbs inside this host, Into the darkest depths I go.
Pulls me down.
[Chorus]
He'll come inside my heart tonight,
Come inside and drain my life,
My need to remain is fading fast.
He'll come inside my heart tonight,
Come inside and drain my life,
In Hell, in this Hell with you.
When I close my eyes he stares cold back at me,
Drags me down, rapes and enters me,
An ocean of blood, a sea of regret,
The grieving knife cuts through me, It's the sole release I get.
Possessing me.
[Chorus]
I walk with the Devil hand in hand through the dark clouds of sorrow, Run with the dogs of my design.
Purgatory. Alone.
Descend into despair, infesting my soul,
He climbs inside this host, Into the darkest depths I go.
Pulls me down.
[Chorus]
8. THE GAUNTLET (DEMON SEED MIX)
You're where I dream;
We're not what could've been,
Living in tomorrow, died in yesterday,
Believe me when I say, there's no where I'd rather be,
I'm on my knees; you're where I pray.
I'm on the floor tonight, I've had it all,
When you're laying down the gauntlet,
I love to watch you crawl.
I'm on the floor tonight, I'll take it all,
As I'm laying down the gauntlet,
Will you catch me when I fall.
You're where I die, where I come alive,
Surround me in flowers, and kiss the past away.
I'm on the floor tonight, I've had it all,
When you're laying down the gauntlet,
I love to watch you crawl.
I'm on the floor tonight, I'll take it all,
As I'm laying down the gauntlet,
Will you catch me when I fall.
This is the end; thirteen's the only friend,
Until I wake up, you're up against the wall.
9. GRAVEYARD SHIFT
Well don't look back,
Because he'll take away his promises,
Like he took away the light.
And tomorrow, You'll be hanging from the ceiling,
Chained and bleeding to his book of love.
Don't go inside, of the graveyard shift, tonight.
Can't you see,
All the shadows hanging over,
As your world turns from stone to dust.
Still you'll try,
To keep your sanctuary secret,
But tonight will never see the dawn
Don't go inside, of the graveyard shift, tonight.
Hanging on the edge of eternity,
As I give to you me, give unto me.
And running through the dark, I see your shining light,
Another dream for you.
He'll steal your soul,
And give you to the chosen ones,
The price you pay for another way.
But tonight, you'll be running to the desolation,
And tomorrow's just a kiss away
Don't go inside, of the graveyard shift, tonight.
10. INVOCATION
The children running to the end of time,
Can't escape the wolf.
Hanging on, beaten down,
Look into the sensaround. Their eyes,
The Devils at the door.
She's coming through the night,
Into a memory long gone.
She speaks like she don't understand,
Where she's been since time began.
And the spell can't be broken,
Till she's awoken in the invocation's eyes.
11. THE HAUTING (VIDEO)
From the tidal waves that scream she comes through,
The woman in white riding the sky.
Laid me down on hallowed ground,
Gave her chains to me,
Places I've never seen, Things I've never been.
Give yourself to me, haunted by her effigy,
Bearing down on me, blinded by her legacy
Give your soul to me, haunted by her effigy,
Through the wind, she comes to me.
Annexed, misgiven girl, the angel of the sea,
Surrounded by fragile words and promises she never means,
She took my fears, forgave my tears, threw away her seven years,
And heaven's not so bright, as she came to me that night.
Give yourself to me, haunted by her effigy,
Bearing down on me, blinded by her legacy
Give your soul to me, haunted by her effigy,
Through the wind, she comes to me.
I ran into the shadows bleeding,
The shadows I hide in, it's always the same,
And the shame gripping tight to the skin of the sin,
For the second they love you, the first that you kill.
The sea comes and calls her from death into light,
Leaving me facing the blade of her night,
Summoning my soul again, whispering her dark refrain
Give yourself to me, haunted by her effigy,
Bearing down on me, blinded by her legacy
Give your soul to me, haunted by her effigy,
Through the wind, she comes to me.
Overland, you could take these lifeless hands in yours,
Breathe into me, things I gave up praying for.
Tired of shadow play, through a darker gaze,
Will you take what I want you to?
Will you forsake things you never should?
It's time. Time to set the world alight.
Set your spirit free,
Come across the sky to me,
Give in to insanity,
The Witching Hour.
Wait for me behind the door,
I'll throw your body to the floor,
We will be apart no more,
The Witching Hour.
Can you feel, the fire that's burning me inside?
As your touch, darkens your betraying smile.
Cast unrest aside, it's time to come alive,
I don't think I need to tell you,
Such a mirrored ride
Set your spirit free,
Come across the sky to me,
Give in to insanity,
The Witching Hour.
Wait for me behind the door,
I'll throw your body to the floor,
We will be apart no more,
The Witching Hour.

We don't your second chance.
We are giving rhyme not reason,
We don't need to settle scores,
Now you can take or leave tomorrow,
Your superstition leaves you cold. Leaves you cold.
So torturous,
The blade cuts deep, your tongue still bleeds,
Torturous, Remaining where you hang your prayer.

Your kisses and I promise I’ll be with you again

Through the wind, she comes to me.
