Bal-Sagoth - The Empyreal Lexicon Lyrics
[THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]So cold are the spaces between the stars...For blackened suns are the only legacy of worlds long dead.[ZURRA:]The key word of Transcendence!The key word of Transference!I shall liberate the rightful owners of the Lexicon...the true rulers of the cosmos!X'atham-ry'aa! Tha'zai-tonn!Darker than a score of hells, Wherein astral horrors dwell,Macrocosmic realms aflame...Prey of fiends that have no name!X'atham-ry'aa! Tha'zai-tonn!Darker than a score of hells...Where astral horrors sublime dwell,Macrocosmic realms aflame...Bow to the gods that have no name![THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]So cold, at the heart of a frozen star...Stay thy hand and thy tongue, slave of the Outer Darkness...Surely you are not foolhardy enough to dare awaken the dire titans of Z'xulth![ZURRA:]Hidden within the blazing core of this sun is that which I seek, old one.Do not seek to thwart me,lest the horrors of oblivion be a balm to your time-addled mind.Behold the cosmic codex! The tome of the astral abyss![THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]Such diabolical evil...sublime macrocosmic malevolence![ZURRA:]Fear is the power... Terror is the key!X'atham-ry'aa... Tha'zai-tonn!I am replete with sovereign mastery!The portals to the Outer Darkness yawn wide once more!They-Who-Lurk-And-Breed-In-Limbo are free!Kur'oc! Gul-Kor! I have won... bow, yield, kneel! Darken the sun...Narra, Gorra, Kaasha! I arise... bow, yield, kneel! Parhelion dies...Narra, Gorra, Kaasha! I can taste the sweet ichors of omni potency upon my lips...Let it begin! X'atham-ry'aa j'aiigh! Tha'zai-tonn naxc1
