(Pt.1: Thorns Of Creation) New light has formed, from the darkness torn Of dust and sand, mankind is born Our garden evergreen, it's flowers, so serene We sing along with birds naked, free Our curiosity led us to a tree We ate from it the fruits of poisoned destiny (Pt.2: Trouble In The Garden) Horns of goat, tongue of serpent Head of dog, body of man He has chosen to pervert God's land In his heaven The Garden Of Unearthly Delights Flowers of blood grow in love's garden Upon the black grass of betrothal We have chosen to pervert God's land This our heaven The Garden Of Unearthly Delights (Pt.3 Into The Valley Of Violent Orchids) [(I) Cadaverous Butterfly] Stillborn beauty greets the air Cadaverous Butterfly draws near Skullish face, scarlet wings Eerie grace of death she brings Haggard marble crosses bare Entrance to her pesty lair Skullish face, Vampire wings Demon's ace fluttering Poisoned perfume leads you there Carnivorous insect has you snared Fallen prey, mesmerised Skullish face eats your eyes [(II) Blind Mans Gaze] In steaming woodlands you awake, Eyes dripping blood Rats digging a grave at your feet as Storm clouds gather above In earths garden, nature sings mans requiem Damp, numb, lost on the cold ground Whilist spiders explore your flesh Raise your head from mossy stone and slimy dew on which you rest In death's sanction - all life's beauty is its end (Pt.4 Flight Of The Reaper) [(I) Court Of The Cosmic Judge] Witching moon burning - frozen sun ashamed to rise Earth's vampires thirsting - for a final taste of life Flight of the reaper, coming back to greet man's end Cosmic Judge awakens, from his council we're expelled White dove on fire - flies into Azrael's sky Black-winged messiah - accepts man's sacrifice Flight of the reaper - he arrives at his promised land Our funeral curator - cups the earth with skeletal hands [(II) Tunnel Of Death] (Pt.5 Alarm Bells In Paradise) [(I) Mourning Of A Paused Dawn] Dawn creeps on, as night withdraws Orchid sun - rises paused [(II) Black Bulbophyllum Sunrise] Buldophyllum, Barbigerum Purpureoachis, Dyanum Dendrochilum, Cobbianum Orchis - Mascula (Pt.6 Exit The Valley Of Violent Orchids) [(I) Through The Concrete Meadows Of Life] You pass the valley of death Rejoin the ghoullish droll procession You thought you had left Orikifirus sends down hearses From the kingdom of dead our sun Whores to oblivion now are taken To your promised land [(II) Chains of Morality] Burning in the flames of pious self-shame A pure, divine existence can't be reborn again For your virtue there is no reward Grand illusions of a heaven flawed Break the skeletal chain - to be reborn again No lies, no shame, an existence profane Celebrating our freedom In this prison of God's kingdom (Pt.7{ie Pt.c (c)} Back To The Garden) Fireless sun, Morgue like planet Deceased minds now control it We have chosen to accept God's land This is our heaven The Garden Of Unearthly Delights (Pt.8 Pool Of Sleeping Minds) (Pt.9 Endtyme) Soldiers now walk through the streets so cold Concrete walls, dark buldings fall Our garden has turned grey, its beauty gone away Earth became a grave for mature's way Seeds of decay have grown into today Endtyme has come, all light fades away
