So let it bleed
In the spiritrealm, the dark abyss of Hel
In the water cold I swim for the deathlike shore
My blood is frozen and my mind is in a daze
Through the pouring rain I can hear the grumbling dead
So this is it...
I'm crossing the river at last
To live eternally
In the shadows and the glory of the past
Death, death, death is everywhere
Lust, lust, lust is in the air
Step, step, step into the unknown
as the goddess of Hel takes me to her womb
Crossing the river cold...
Listen to the haunting choirs of the dead
They sing their hymns in horror and ghastly dread
They chant in reverence for all bewildered souls
They gather, they call us, they keep us forever
So this is it...
I'm crossing the river at last
To live eternally
In the shadows and the glory of the past
Death, death, take me, I'm incomplete
The life I've left behind feels obsolete
Open up your bosom and let me in
Goddess of Hel, I am yours

I...
Was blinded by the light
By luminous spheres
Burning in the sky
I'm...
Enlightend by the dark
By the spirits of the night
Blackened as they rise
Them...
I've always felt them near
Reflected in my eyes
Like shadows they appear
Flesh...
Cancer of the soul
Vamper of the mind
Imprisoning my will
The path...
I've known for centuries
The flesh that clothes my soul
Was never meant to be
Dead...
Look into my eyes
Like mirrors open wide
I'm already there...
...as I walk through the gateway
...To join the dead
...So let it bleed
...I walked undead
...Now I can see
Time...
Through aeons I have walked
The paths of ignorance
Enchanted by the fire
Death...
The blade that cuts me loose
In a cloudburst I leave
Into darkness so cold
I...
Was blinded by the light
By luminous spheres
Burning in the sky
I'm...
Enlightend by the dark
A spirit of the night
Blackened I rise...
...as I walk through the gateway
...To join the dead
...So let it bleed
...I walked undead
...Now I can see
I...
Was blinded by the light
By luminous spheres
Burning in the sky
I'm...
Enlightend by the dark
By the spirits of the night
Blackened as they rise

Reflected in my eyes
Like shadows they appear
Flesh...
Cancer of the soul
Vamper of the mind
Imprisoning my will
