A dim moonlightI've been... this glorious ridRaise the arms in victoryI've seen... on this glorious nightI've kept my eyes open wideThrough my dream I was given a hint:My sky is darker than yours, my star is brighter than yoursA glance to the moonlight shadow reveals the runes of yesterdayI am of Astral Strain, my sky is darker than thineDie... die... die!I... I... I... despiteDestroy!The goals I've set to myself are far beyond mortalityTo dominate, desolate everything weak that cannot stand aloneAnd losers shall drop...One after one...I am before all godsWho art thou to come to me?You are the great pretenderAnd you will always be(so die)Frozen time... The astral gateI've been before on this groundOpen wide before my eyesI see... on this glorious rideNow I know...It was written in the stars that I am the WrathchildI laugh as you cryI am the one who laughs as you cry...I am the one who laughs for last and laughs forever moreThe goals I've set to myself are far beyond humanityTo dominate, desolate everything - I'm heading to immortality!And losers shall drop...One after one...I WON!!!2. WingsThe scars in the windGuiding my path to the darkThe breath of the silent nightApproaching from a distanceWingsI cut a thousand cutsStreams run (down) along my armsstars blasted into darknessStrange scents, coloursCatch!The sleepless eyesSterilized by drops of prideSkies... mirror... screamsShapes foundering into the sceneWingsHate in my heartRevenge in my mind and my wordsI rinse my hair in bloodAnd mock at your lousy GodI cut a thousand cutsStreams run (down) along my armsOh the scars in the wind...!Guiding my pathway on my rideCatch deathThe sleepless eyes3. Fields Of Blood, Harvester Of HateCome to me - oh, mighty force of my own inner will...Raise the power of knowlegde and give me the spirit to... kill!Prepare my being to conquer what's to be mine...For eternityThe aftermath of a battle to comeA vivid vision before my eyesThe storm has calmed and peace has landedNo more are we under the influence of liesThe false ones have been put to their deathby the purest form of pure impurityky turns jetblack - We breed in the darkReborn to a new realityThe winds sweeps the fields where they all died...The fields where their blood was spilt...The hordes of celestial light saw the fields of blood... onceThe winds sweeps the fields where they all died...The fields where weak blood was spilt...The hordes of celestial lies saw the fields of bloodI summon my inner self to strengthen my final willMy will to destroy the promised land of thousand fakesI summon my mental force for it is mightier than your swordReveal the powers of Wrath - tomorrow I am GOD!!!...This is the dawn of the final war...I shall bring you all downKill 'em all!!!The victory is written on my very fleshInscribed in my very mindBefore daylight strikes the earth will be purifiedand no pretender shall walk on this groundshadows retiring with the darkness of nightand hatred is growing withinfirst sunbeams of this day of gloryreflect hatred in my eyes - the triumph of Death4.

Awaiting The Winter FrostA gathering in the cold, in the North, in the dark lands of PohjolaWhere the sun had not been crossing the sky nor seen for centuries...We were brought together by oaths we had once sworn - by blood......once together drawn...We had gathered all our forcesCalled together all the heroesEquipped a hundred swordmenAnd a thousand men with crossbowsStrengthened by hate and the thirst for the enemies' bloodWe lay in wait for the season of no lightWe had seen the frozen mist - we weren't afraid to dieAnd the oath we had sworn gave us reason to live onA Calm before the Storm(We were) Awaiting the Winter Frost...And then a storm arose in furyThe sky was shattered by lightning...Awaiting the Winter FrostAs the sky blackened and the stars turned redThe frost greeted us with a cold northern breezeOff with their heads! Off with their fuckin' heads!!!Oh, the time had come...To slaughter the hordes of cowardiceAnd cleanse the North from liesWe had gathered all our forcesCalled together all the heroesEquipped a hundred swordmenAnd a thousand men with crossbowsWe raised our swordsGrasped the ironsLifted our bowsAnd chose the arrowsThe false ones' hordes were put to the swordThe strong and the weak, one by one...Their race was slaughtered to the very last manOur bloodfeind was done as their bodies reddened the landAwaiting the Winter FrostThe sign of the dark and the coldthe spell of pure hateAwaiting the Winter FrostAnd the heathen peace was found6. Beyond The Wall Of SleepFade into a dream...Deep into a dormant pseudo-lifeDrown into night...Pass through the gate of sleepI see faded colours...I see a landscape so calm...To live a life asleep... is to master mortalityI wander between these worldsOn a quest to find a keyWhen life seems to be lostAnd death comes to my doorI vanish into a dreamInto a place so cold, yet warmWithin my fleshA thorn is molesting my sleepIt's teasing me...Am I human after all?(no)Faded in dream...Beyond the wall of sleepFor the sleep of deathIs the most divineSandman, stab me in the back...Lord Ego, Punish me!Cleanse me from humanity!Reveal the fucking Beast!I must drown the human ignoranceDeep in the lake of fire drink the wineSandman, stab me in the back...Lord Ego, Punish me!To live with a dream... is to master mortalitythe quest to find a key... Still lives!7. Northern LightsAt the dawn...The golden moon was shining brightWith the silvery eyes of deathThey had seen me salute the flames in the sky...Northern lights......Northern lights...While you were asleep I was awake to be part of the darkWhile you were asleep I was awake to find the truth I had sought for...through all my life...Taken by the North wind blowInto the icy abyss of coloursAs I fulfilled my true selfI know your world is not for meI am not one of them...Aurora Borealis -A part of me still in the skyIn the light of the golden moonIn the light of the silvery eyes of the nightI wandered through fire through ice...To the valley of the shadow of death...Northern lights...be part of the darkWhile you were asleep I was awake to find the truth I had sought for...through all my life...Aurora Borealis -A part of me still in the sky8. Epic(now flee...)I flee... back to the time when man was trueI see... life as it was meant for meOn this trail I meet my ancestorsOn this trail I find their wisdomFrom the wall of frozen time I see my own reflectionBorn - in the wrong centuryTorn - to a wrong realityA winter chill - A frozen, dead realityA blackened will - A strange, macabre certaintyPagan roots!Heathen life!if life was... EPIC!My heart belongs to the pastI feel attraction for the nightmy mind to the ancient timesI view this life like a lifeless rockI want to be trapped under icewithin my peaceful glacial tombFar from the epoch of trendIn the Aeon of Frost - In league with the North!On this trail I meet my ancestorsOn this trail I find their wisdomFrom the wall of frozen time I see my own reflectionBorn - in the wrong centuryTorn - to a wrong reality"North from Here" recorded and mixed December - February 1993at Tico-Tico Studio, Kemi, Finland by Ahti Kortelainen and Sentenced.Acoustic guitars and keyboards by Tenkula & LopakkaAll music and lyrics by the killers themselves!!!1993 Century Media
