1. The Wilderness
It was when I realized that life has no meaning no purpose, no quarry ...no answeres... And all the dreary night that had befallen across the land I slipped into a revery a web of human hand You longed to soar up high to caress the silky winds to embrace and kiss as lovers ...the ether... but fate with cursed hand has struck wretch apon your head this wretch has been the day you were born (human) I live my life alone and all it's misery until the day I turn to stone I shall die alone among the wilderness It was when I realized apon my waking eyes no nightmare of mankind can harm me... I live my life alone among the wilderness until the day i turn to stone Life is but a dream among the wilderness ...I spread my golden wings set sail my weightless form
3. Foliorum Viridum
[Instrumental]
on the canvas of youth it's snowing still in my heart Will I ride the summer winds or dance apon the crimson horizon will I find paradise in hell? If I go deep into the woods If I go to this cabin As scarlet flowers lust for the dew of morning and infants nurse on the nectar of motherhood As prophets of ruin wield their swords of wisdom and battle forth towards a brighter dawn Take me away from here ...Falling... ...Soaring... If If If If I I I I go go go go deep into the woods to this cabin deep into the woods will you follow?
...Falling... ...Soaring... Take me away from here (This blood) on my hands to celebrate my passing My soul shall bleed for eternity ...in silence... [All poetry by J. Haughm]
Two years had brought the fire that she paints upon my loathsome canvas She is the dark one... As a bird I watched her from my cold tower in the heavens and when she fell from the northplace, I flew down and embraced her I took her where the snow falls forever, she showed me the haunted woods We gathered together in the oaken palace, free from both death and life The fire blazed in her eyes one day and she tore the soul from my chest With a bleeding heart, I flew back to my cold tower to never escape and lie in a pool of death forever I saw the nightfall... It called to me like a river of shadows It sang to me with the cries of a thousand ravens that blackened the sky as they took flight and sank the Sol I shall never trust the sun again, Eridanis Nadir I ran away far into the woods To find the Sol, I called to her... "I don't want to be forgotten...I never wanted to be human" NEVER!!!!! So alas the sun had descended, her fire burned brilliant in the sky The trees bore their withered silhouettes, that cast a spell upon unearthly white No wolf shall keep his secrets, no bird shall dance the skyline And I am left with nothing but an oath that gleams like a sword To bathe in the blood of man Mankind... [Music by Haughm (7/97 - 1/99)]
Ebon halls gleam as ghosts of a fire dance wickedly across a pantheon of marble These weary eyes shall open no more, frozen tightly by the cold embrace of death A charnel house of memories torn and burning melancholy shall embrace me now Hear this call... Beyond endless halls and far across the vast forest, just across the iron gates Whispers... As dark as the winter, as black as her grim mask of death As cold as her sorrow, her ivory tears No corridors of life and beauty No bloodred sky, no colors left in this world It was the light's end [Music by Haughm (12/97 - 2/98)]
Shine on morning skyfire ablaze this final day The autumnal end, the dawn of man The centuries fade below my feet I soared above them as they worthlessly poured thought from a chalice As wisdom would flow, twilight would come to pass Drink, oh hallowed cup of life Shine on evening skyfire Paint the sky with the blood of a raven Bereavement, oh garment of ebony As embers dress the dusk of man... [Music by Haughm/Anderson (3/96 - 10/96)]

Just kneel to the cross on the wall We've original sin, but we might just get in If we beg to the cross on the wall It's love your neighbour and rattle your sabre But kneel to that cross on the wall. See the roof fall, hear the bells crash As flesh and bone turns to ash Tried to conquer the sun with a Christian frost The corpses' stench beneath the cross Anf give them gold and they'll save your soul And kneel to the cross on the wall And hail to the boss of the great unwashed And kneel to the cross on the wall They wail and weep, the march of the sheep As they go to the cross on the wall And it's ever so wrong to dare to be strong So kneel to the cross on the wall See the roof fall, hear the bells crash As flesh and bone turns to ash Tried to conquer the sun, with a Christian frost The corpses' stench beneath the cross. And it's ever so wrong to dare, to be strong And it's ever so wrong to dare, to be strong But summer is a-coming and arise! Arise! But summer is a-coming and arise! Arise!
5. A Poem By Yeats
The brawling of a sparrow in the eaves, The brilliant moon and all the milky sky, And all that famous harmony of leaves, Had blotted out man's image and his cry. A girl arose that had red mournful lips And seemed the greatness of the world in tears, Doomed like Odysseus and the labouring ships And proud as Priam murdered with his peers; Arose, and on the instant clamorous eaves, A climbing moon upon an empty sky, And all that lamentation of the leaves, Could but compose man's image and his cry. [From the poem "The Sorrow of Love" by William Butler Yeats]

[Instrumental]
Her haunting, contorted despair was etched into the wood's grain Though fire rages within me, no fire burns fiercer than her desire The shape whispers my name. . . I damn this oak! I damn her sorrow! I damn these oaken corridors That bear the ghosts of those I've thrown away! Though tempted I am to caress her texture divine And taste her pain sweet, sweet like brandy wine; I must burn these halls, these corridors And silence her shrill, tormenting voice . . .forever. . . Like snowfall, you cried a silent storm No tears stain this dust in my hands But from this ashen gray, her voice still Whispers my name. . . You were the lugubrious spirit Who haunted the oak of wonder You were the geist that warned this frozen silent storm You were but a ghost in my arms
9. A Desolation Song
Here I sit at the fire Liquor's bitter flames warm my languid soul Here I drink alone and remember A graven life, the stain of her memory In this cup, love's poison For love is the poison of life Tip the cup, feed the fire, And forget about useless fucking hope... Lost in the desolation of love The passions we reap and sow Lost in the desolation of life This path that we walk... Here's to love, the sickness The great martyr of the soul Here's to life, the vice The great herald of misery In this cup, spiritus frumenti For this is the nectar of the spirit Quench the thirst, drown the sorrow And forget about cold yesterdays... Lost in the desolation of love The passions we reap and sow Lost in the desolation of life This path that we walk... Lost in the desolation of love The sorrows we reap and sow Lost in the desolation of life The path that we walk...
1. Limbs
The texture of the soul is a liquid that casts a vermilion flood From a wound carved as an oath; it fills the river bank a sanguine fog These arms were meant to be lost! Hacked, severed and forgotten The texture of time is a whisper that echoes across the flood It's hymn resonates from tree to tree, through every sullen bough it sings These boughs were said to be lost! Torn, unearthed and broken Earth to flesh, flesh to wood, cast these limbs into the water Flesh to wood, wood to stone, cast this stone into the water...
2. Falling Snow
The water pours its embracing arms around the stone Decay drips from the unquiet void where the ice forms, where life ends The stone is by the crimson flood, swallowed The red tide beyond the ebon wound, contorted My sacrifice bids farewell in this river of memory... a wave to end all time Red birds escape from my wounds and return as falling snow To sweep the landscape; a wind haunted, wings without bodies The snow, the bitter snowfall You wish to die in her pale arms, crystalline, to become an ode to silence In the soul of a mountain of birds, fallen The cascading pallor of ghostless feather The snow has fallen and raised this white mountain on which you will die and fade away in silence

The birch tree in winter
Leaning over the secret pool Is Narcissus in love With the slight white branches. The slim trunk, In the dark glass; But, Spring coming on, Is afraid, And scarfs the white limbs In green. The slim trunk, In the dark glass; But, Spring coming on, Is afraid, And scarfs the white limbs. The birch tree in winter Spring coming on, Is afraid, And scarfs the white limbs In green. The birch tree in winter Leaning over the secret pool Is Narcissus in love With the slight white branches. The birch tree in winter Spring coming on, Is afraid, And scarfs the white limbs In green.

Who sleep shall, awake. . Greeting the shadows from the sun. Who sleep shall awake. . Watching the thunder of our lives. Waiting for the moment to arrive. Show us the silence in the rise. So that we may. Someday understand... [Lord Summerisle:] "Now, those children out there, they're jumping through the flames in the hope that the god of the fire will make them fruitful. Really, you can't blame them. After all, what girl would not prefer the child of a god to that of some acne-scarred artisan?"
[Sergeant Howie:] "And you encourage them in this?" [Lord Summerisle:] "Actively! It's most important to teach new generation born of Summerisle be made aware that here the old gods aren't dead." [Sergeant Howie:] "And what of the true God? To whose glory churches and monasteries have been built on these islands for generations past? Now shall what of Him?" [Lord Summerisle:] "Oh, He's dead. He can't complain. He had his chance and in modern parlance. Blew it."
7. Summerisle Reprise
[Lord Summerisle:] And the ministers fled the island never to return. What my grandfather started out of expediency, my father continued out of love. He brought me up the same way: to reverence the music, and the drama, and the rituals of the old gods; to love nature and to fear it, and to rely on it and to appease it when necessary. He brought me up [Sergeant Howie:] He brought you up to be a pagan! [Lord Summerisle:] A heathen, conceivably, but not, I hope, an unenlightened one.
Temples of magma steam across the grey The arc that transcends my iconic pride For I am not an ageless god, no, I am imprisoned by time These ancient palms shall once again be mine Hands...hands that lift the oceans to vertical depths above the stars For when I die, the universe will die with me and all will be lost forever gone Where am I? How long shall I suffer here? Forlorn in the cold neolithic embrace Forsaken deep in the sullen tide How long shall I suffer here? Perched on the cliffside gazing out into the brine My archaic beard pours downward and joins the feral sea I am the heritage; the quintessence of myth and legend The archetype of Pagan might and divinity Hands...hands that lift the oceans to vertical depths beyond the stars I gather a celestial blanket around these tired bones and finally slumber in the clouds of ice These are my hands... ...so it is done
As wandering ghosts pass through the flames A new age of rebirth lights the dawn But who are they who pass by the window? The shapes; like black solar wheels scorched in the snow by gods of the stone... This elder stone shall never fall! Cast the aeons into the void So that no other can seek them No age, no hands shall taint them Pour the sorrows into the sun They are lost forever in dark woods of time Carve the symbols into the stone So that another can find them No age, no hands shall change them Pour the ages into the sun They are lost forever in the dark woods of time
Join the drowned in the silence of the black lake's womb Accursed...written in the waters...
6. To Drown
They escaped the weight of darkness to forge a path into the marrow of the spirit They chose to drown in a deeper vacancy an emptiness that quells the null a pool for the forgotten They escaped the weight of darkness to drown in another...
