The First Invasion Of Night

From chapter "Yearly years"

Стихотворение является второй частью Квадрологии. По изначальной задумке, при положении его на музыку, в середине делается пауза и замогильный голос читает приворотное заклинание из Вуду в вольном переводе на английский. Критику вся эта затея выдерживает с трудом, но без First Invasion цикл будет не полон.

                Dedicated to...

Deadly grace
Of your essence
Tempting beauty
Makes me want
Graves of past
Empty present
Why it has
To be so wrong?
I see you
Every morning
Feel your footsteps
In my brain
Time goes down
World is turning
Only passion
Stays the same
Look at these
Beastly people
Some like sheep
Some like shark
Fuck them all
I'm a keeper
It's my temple
Of the dark
Setting sun -
Time for fighting
Blackness coming
From my world
Night is mine
Ride the lightning
I shall get
Inside your soul
Wake my lust
Shed your cover
Face to me
To sense my thrill
Don't resist
Black art's power
It's much stronger
Than your will

Chorus:
Sacrifice your flesh to twilight
Feel invasion of the night

...Through the thought of a head - incantation
Through the brain and blood
Through the grin of the moon
And thousand darkness of planets
Through the body of snake
And the fire of candle
Spelling in the name of Highest
Plunging into the hell of antiquity
Anguish, pain, suffering, excitements
                About me
And like you, oh heaven,
Spill the ocean of water in rain,
(So) like this, let YOU spill the tears of sorrow for me
Any days, years and hours
Oh, Highest! Give this soul to me
I invoke you. Amen.

Now you'll see
My dimension
Contemplate this
Timeless land
You're my last
Revelation
Join my warmth &
Squeeze my hand
Thunder roars -
Hails the master
Wishes tell here
More than words
Do not speak
So much faster
I can see your
Secret thoughts
Break my pain
Look around
Gates of evil
Closed behind
Drift my stream
Catch the sound
Taste the silence
Feel divine
Merge to one
In the darkness
You have come
A little late
But I share
All the frankness
You can't leave this
I'm your fate

...Long way back
Night is broken
Dreams are gone
And turned to sand
Most of them
Left unspoken
But it's time
To make it end

Chorus:
Sacrifice your flesh to twilight
Feel invasion of the night
