JESS AND THE ANCIENT ONES LYRICS

1. Prayer For Death And Fire

Hear me, oh lord of the grave mounds
Your voice is chaos and cosmic fire
These buried dreams are calling on
From eternity’s infinity manifest

Gates of sleep now rust away
Break the mirrors that led astray

Lightnings bring memories
What was will always be

Oh hear my prayer for death and fire
Love, lust and desire
Oh burning black sonic fire
Love, lust and desire

See me, oh shadows of Cain
Your eyes burn through my soul
Turn these dreams into flesh
From the abyss, now manifest

Oh hear my prayer for death and fire
Love, lust and desire
Oh burning black sonic fire
Love, lust and desire

Gates of sleep now rust away
Break the mirrors that led astray

I remember the gardens of blazing fires
Seven sermons for the dead
I remember the shining flowers of gold
No secrets in the house of souls

I remember the silence so deep
Seven prayers for the dead
I remember, oh I remember now
No secrets in the house of souls

Oh hear my prayer for death and fire
Love, lust and desire
Oh burning black sonic fire
Love, lust and desire

2. Twilight Witchcraft

Hear this call of mine
Echo through space and time
Oh Reaper, the grim king
Sinister powers bring

Spread wings black as night
Darken this journey, black alchemy
Like fallen angels, you and I
One day we will fly above the lonely skies

Oh Lord Death
Release my soul
Show me the aeons
Only you know

Oh Lord Death
Release my soul
Together with twilight shadows
From your cold grip never let me go

Angel by my side
Always by my side
Black angel by my side
Always by my side

Oh Lord Death
Release my soul
Show me the aeons
Only you know

Oh Lord Death
Release my soul
Together with twilight shadows
From your cold grip never let me go

One day you'll take my hand
And whisper your name to me, I'll understand
How I long to meet the end
To start anew with my mysterious friend

An angel by my side
Always by my side
Black angel by my side
Always by my side

Oh Angel
Guide my soul
Take me to aeons
Only you know

Oh Angel
Take my soul
Beyond this life's shadows we'll go

When your scythe cuts loose
This body from the soul
The wandering spirit shall remain
With you I'll journey so far away

3. Sulfur Giants

I can't see the light
I can't see the morning bright never again, oh no
Only shadows in the soul caravan, travelling astral
From this waste that I created again, and again, and again
From this waste I throw myself away

Oh I wish I'd never been born
Never been taken away
I will find my place
Sulfur Giants lead the way

The touch of their lips
Lifts me above the blind and the weak when everything falls
The sound of their voice
Thunderous like a thousand lightnings

Oh I wish I'd never been born
Never been taken away
I will find my place
Sulfur Giants lead the way

I hold my heart in my hands
As they wash me with their burning fires

Oh I wish I'd never been born
Never been taken away
I will find my place
Sulfur Giants lead the way

Into the twilights unknown

Awake me from this sleep
This sleep is rapture where the divine fade away
Where you and I will be laid to a waste again and again
Break this cycle when I drown myself in your embrace
Take my heart and drown me in your arms

Oh I wish I'd never been born
Never been taken away
I hold my heart in my hands
Sulfur Giants understand

Oh I wish I'd never been born
Never been taken away
Life I once dreamed before
Sulfur Giants forevermore

Into the twilights unknown

4. Ghost Riders

Come dawn of the flames
Ghost riders, we await
Come, ride through the gates
Ghost riders, we await

Through the gates of the silver key
These words turn into darkest dreams
Black revelations, the face of god
Where have all the ghost riders gone

In the gnostic fires you burn and are reborn
We are gonna miss you all, eternally

A thousand eyes will open again, infinity
Through the gates of the golden key

Come dawn of the flames
Ghost riders, we await
Come, ride through the gates
Ghost riders, we await

In the gnostic fires you burn and are reborn
We are gonna miss you all, eternally

A vision brighter than a thousand stars
Dancing ghosts within the cosmic flood
Reflecting the shadows of demigod

Tides of catharsis coming forth
Esoteric gnosis, Telos within

Come dawn of the flames
Ghost riders, we await
Come, ride through the gates
Ghost riders, we await

5. 13th Breath Of The Zodiac

Ascending house of the Serpent's Holder
a beginning in the end of the time

Far beyond you reach your arms
Stand upon the tail of Scorpius
Stellar winds carry Thy call
Across the planes forever more

Dire burning eyes lit up in flames
a total eclipse of the stars
Subconscious daemons entwine
With and without, together as one

From the shadows you have come
To stand across the path of the Sun
Everlasting secrets that you keep
Revealed for those with the will to seek

Embrace the loving kiss
A cosmic breath of resurrection
Reach the dead in their tombs
Invite them back to your womb

From the shadows you have come
To stand across the path of the sun
Everlasting secrets that you keep
Revealed for those who dare to seek

In the gardens of dark matter
The serpents coil and twist
As they bind their tails
Around the eternal pillars

From the shadows you have come
To stand across the path of the sun
Everlasting secrets that you keep
Revealed for those who dare to seek

6. The Devil (In G-Minor)

Burning heat, burning low
Fires burning within my soul
I crossed them roads, oh I crossed them roads

Shadows in the wind, shadows on the wall
The Devil I cry, the Devil I call
I close my eyes, oh I close my eyes

The Devil I see
The Devil I know
Seven are we
The Devil we see
The Devil I see
The Devil I know
Seven are we and the Devil we see

Burning heat, burning low
Fires raging within my soul
Forever I wait, forever I cry

The Devil I see
The Devil I know
Seven are we
The Devil we see
The Devil I see
The Devil I know
Seven are we and the Devil we see

7. Come Crimson Death

Clandestine roads to travel
Trail of tears that leads to joy
From nowhere I came
From nowhere I left

Sail on blessed black shadows
Arcane shores lie ahead
Come thunder with silver rain
Divination, Morningstar

Behind the smoking mirror
A pathway of the gods
Secret doors in between
Concealed with mysteries

Rise above this world of ash
That suffocates your heart
Sail on to the lands unseen
Never to return again

When you arrive, oh when you arrive
Light the pyres of gold
Eternal meadows in a trance
Welcome home to where the shadows dance

If the sun burns my wings
I will cry a thousand tears
Turn the wheels in the skies
Save me from this life

Come Crimson Death
Let it be, let it be
Come Crimson Death
Lucifer, Morningstar

Silence above, silence below
Eternal waves carry me home
Rainbow's gold I leave behind
As I welcome the death divine

Come Crimson Death
Let it be, oh let it be
Come Crimson Death
Morningstar, Lucifer
