Fall of Heroes

Here again and afterwards
The time has yet to come
Shut the doors and kneel
Tonight you'll pay the toll
In the end you face again
The enemies who've been slain
Mind the fall of heroes
For victory is in vain
While all the prayers are falling off the wall
You still follow the one that promised us the end of all
But the day of wrath has just begun
Far beyond the edges
Of the Promised Land
Far where history has failed
Like the future we betrayed
While all the rest is drifting on apart
And we praise the Gods to see the Sun
Waiting for the time to rise above
Far beyond the ages
Far beyond the lands
Our history has gone
But tomorrow has begun

Two Horizons
05:16
|

|
My heart is empty for each of your tales
My inner voice is like a siren
And if she could warn me from dangers and hate
My conscience will find two horizons
A thousand voices has talked to my soul
Each one has spoken his own plain truth
And if I’ll find the best one for myself
My conscience will find two horizons
We had enough
And now we set off our way
We'll meet again
So long
We had enough
It's time to split up old days
Pale and afraid
We part
The clouds have vanished
Or simply too far
We left our bodies here to dry up
It’s been a long walk away from my mind
My conscience will find two horizons
We had enough
And now we set off our way
We'll meet again
So long
We had enough
It's time to set off old days
Pale and afraid
We part
We had enough
And now we'll split up our ways
We'll meet again
Somehow

New Babylon
06:52
|
|||
|
One night of Hell in a bloody square
Night of hate for the Arian cage
All dressed in black in the latest hours
And Europe is a new Babylon
One man in tears for a crowd
A crowd in tears for an isle
A flag is ripped off for begging tears
Tonight one voice, many tongues
Celebrate your Hell
In the middle of town
A fire, a fire burns
The mystic Babylon, great mother-city of all harlots,
and all that is abominable on earth
Babylon magna mater fornicationum et abominationum terrae

Lost Soldiers

Will I reward myself?
Will I be working out this time?
Will I refuse their words
of emptiness and desperate times?
Will I be lost forever?
Will every plan rebuild the same?
I’ve just abused this world
Now suddenly I quit.
Foreign in a world for what I’ve been
Falling again, foreigner me
Falling in the darkness of enemies
that suck your mind
Wandering around for what I need
Begging for a chance that never comes
Lonely in a town and fighting with my fate
I’m starting now
I’m starting now
We're soldiers for a fight
We're soldiers for a fight where no one kills
We're soldiers for a fight
We've lost it forever
We're soldiers for a fight
And fighting for a change that cannot be
We're soldiers for a fight
We've lost it forever.
We're soldiers for a fight
We've lost it
We're just a failure.

Someone took control of leaders of the earth and its inhabitants
The mother of the prostitutes with precious stones and gold showed off immoral thoughts
17 was in my mind
A scarlet beast with seven heads and ten horns
17 was in my mind
It was the revelation time
The whole army of god
Sacrificed their blood
Scarlet like her clothes
And from her golden goblet
She sipped our misery
Turned into shameful blasphemy
17 was in my mind
A scarlet beast with seven heads and ten horns
17 was in my mind
It was the revelation time
And on her forehead was written a name...
A name of mystery
Babylon the Great
Mother of Prostitutes and Abomination of the Earth
And the woman that you saw is the great city that has dominion over the kings of the earth
17 was in my mind
A scarlet beast with seven heads and ten horns
17 was in my mind
It was the revelation time
I saw the beast was coming out the ocean
17 was in my mind
All our faults have endless time
It was the revelation time
And all our faults have endless time, endless time

Until We Fail

Until we fail
We'll not corrupt our souls
Until we fail
We'll never lock our doors
We’ll break our hearts
And pray for you
Until we fail
Don’t you be here
Don’t you be here
Nothing is given for real
Don’t you believe
Our word is real

Martyrdom
06:00

And here they met the legion of folks
To celebrate their promise with a song
And focused on the centre of town
There remained all night and day.
The sound of voices slid the doors
And then became the prayers of our sons
Our passion turned into martyrdom
We will take this night away
And I will keep my promise this time
The day before the rising of the Sun
And if I’ll find rebels around
I'll erase your mindless games
And if our voices live in the fall
We'll better find our way under the stone
And leave our memories in the call
Now we'll take this night away
The sound of voices slid the doors
And then became the prayers of our sons
Our passion turned into martyrdom
Now we'll take this night away
Oh... Another Sun is fading...

[I The Eerie Tower]
And now,
Now we've gathered here
To walk on our steps
Remember that, we're creators
And destroyers of lives
And praises
Are our driving force,
Our words of glory,
The opus is to be done
Before the sunrise
Here is the tower
Where watchers stare
And eagles dare
Here lies our right
Western heroes and eastern maids
And northern folk
Here lies our right
Our ambition
Almighty, all-powerful
Is good and is right
Our blood was strange
Our words were strange
Our common wishes made a place
Where we felt so strange.
And here the guardians of the lake
And there the wanderers from haze
Built our silent place
Our common wishes made a place
Where we felt so strange.
[II Omelia]
[III Collapse]
Everything is being undone
What we promised now is falling down
A thousand bricks under the clouds
Someone speaks a name no one can spell
And I gave her all my faith
And so I did, but no answer was the same
And I'll wait before the day
That collapsing Babylon will cease to be
Someone prayed the sacred Sun
Before the death of God was sentenced
Our tongues revealed our different thoughts
We're strangers to the sky
And still don't know why
And I gave her all my faith
And so I did, but no answer was the same
And I'll wait before the day that
Collapsing Babylon will cease to be.
[IV Inno Al Dolore]

Under A Godless Veil

Simply awesome. The sweet female voice combined with the dark growling just hit exactly my taste in music.

A truly epic saga told in clean vocals and death growls, wrapped up in death, black, power, and doom metal. There are no defaults here: genres and styles are just tools used to convey the desired mood, and Khemmis interchanges them effortlessly and with purpose. Somehow, it’s incredibly cohesive and compelling. Plus, the artwork is absolutely SICK. 11/10 buying a shirt, or maybe a dozen. Buy this album, then go check out their store before I buy it all…

Finnish death metallers leaven infernal dynamics with triumphant, infectious melodies, striking a compelling balance between grit and grace.

I like it because it bears all the familiar trademarks of the band, because I hold Saturnus in great esteem, because there are no two singers like him and because, like anyone else. they keep writing those beautiful, tranquil, colourful songs in which I let me drift with delight.
