Satyricon - Now, Diabolical Album Lyrics

---

Now, Diabolical

The chase is on
Reverie dies
Stand up be counted
This world that we hold
Will never kneel
Fuck you - you can never win
You never had
Our persistence
It's an honor never bestowed upon you
We're wide - awake
All senses alert
We'll brush you off
Like dirt on our skin
A lifetime under devil wings
Has forged a shield of unpenetrable strength

'cause they want
'cause they need
'cause they are
Made to be
Now, Diabolical

Countless nights of ferocious anger
And grinding teeth
The jaw is clenched
The spark is lit
The target locked
We want you dead
Your head on our plate
You wanted war
And war you will get
You sorry man - you never knew and you (were) never prepared

We cannot
We will not
We never have been affected by you
We will always fight
We will never rest
We will not mourn

Those who got lost
We entered this world and thought nothing
Of no one or anything
This world that we hold
Came to us with our lives
You always thought
You never knew
You never grasped our existence
A shallow mind in an empty shell - no good to this world
Both feet on the ground
Firmly positioned
Our boiling blood is pumping
Damn you all for being so small
You cannot kill
What you cannot see

K.I.N.G

Bloodshot eyes - metal skin
Serpents tongue - dagger claws
Dragon wings - crooked horns
K.I.N.G

Beholding the might
In its dawn of grace
In its beauty and light
In its pride and glory
Rushing torrent - time and space
Elder lords - crack the soil
Gone or dead - you've never been
Kingdom come - hear the roar
Climbing down to rule the earth

Bloodshot eyes - metal skin
Serpents tongue - dagger claws
Dragon wings - crooked horns
K.I.N.G

Upon high places
With their heads up high
With their lives at stake
With their blades at hand
Triumph come - beyond the gate
Giants rise - from the pits
Worlds collide - chaos reign
Dawn of gold - age of gods
Climbing down to rule the earth

Bloodshot eyes - metal skin
Serpents tongue - dagger claws
Dragon wings - crooked horns
K.I.N.G

Lighting strikes - wake up now
He the fourth - hate the weak
Summon all - make the signs
Legions march - earth the void

Bloodshot eyes - metal skin
Serpents tongue - dagger claws
Dragon wings - crooked horns
K.I.N.G

The Pentagram Burns

Hellbent and raw
Armed to the core
Walks with the wind
Determined and strong
Inherit his laws
Adopt and obey

[Chorus:]
Rise my friend - march to war
Time is up - shadows dance
Fight my friend - tyrants pull
Time is up - burn the world

Driven by sin
Let the scavengers loose
Power from hell
Siege and advance
Silence the foe
Fire and smoke

[Chorus]

From the slumber arise
Triumphant Beast of forgotten times
The Pentagram Burns
And the clock strikes the hour
The Final Hour

A New Enemy

Retreat, divide
What moved, what blurred
What spun, what changed
Our perception of reality

Awaiting the battle destined
Reflecting the ending desired
On bloodstained soil
The circles meet
Face him
On bloodstained soil
The fog dispersed
Come forth - A new enemy

Unknown, begone
It stirs, it fears
It rips, it shreds
The bizarre nature of our kind

Awaiting the battle destined
Reflecting the ending desired
On bloodstained soil
The circles meet
Face him
On bloodstained soil
The fog dispersed
Come forth - A new enemy

For what, for whom?
No rule, no sense
Awaiting the battle destined
Reflecting the ending desired
On bloodstained soil
The circles meet
Face him
On bloodstained soil
The fog dispersed
Come forth - A new enemy

The Rite Of Our Cross

Freedom, urge, faith - and deeper he falls
Hatred, rage, fear - the stronger denial
Anger, heat, lust - the higher he climbs

[Chorus:]
Slave - the shackles are off
Act - Do it your way
Horns - the abyss ascends
Now gather the earth
It's the coming of the Dark Lord
All tribes unite
This is the rite of our cross

Viewing, judging, killing - A formula known
Fading, paling, rotting - A story too old

[Chorus]

Wielding, might, just - Now throw me the fight
Glowing, thriving, winning - The truth will be told

[Chorus]

The Darkness Shall Be Eternal

They've come into this sphere
With (their) natural born fire
To spread and protect new found truth
No man is man more noble the the cause he fights (for)

From the heavens
From the abyss
From the depths of man
From the mind
From the heart
From the soul

In the day and hour of depression
Fate is on our side
The twilight is soon over
And heads are turned northwards
Behind the wall of sleep is and always was

From the heavens
From the abyss
From the depths of man
From the mind
From the heart
From the soul

The will to win and timeless strength
Holy holy union made in hell
No dark force for you to overcome

From the heavens
From the abyss
From the depths of man

Delirium

A bitter blow - A darkened maze
Can take you down
A fearless man - A shattered spirit
Will immerse in misery

Come see it - Come feel it
It is here
Come see it - Come feel it
It's alive

Delirium - Out of bounds
Delirium - Dying inside
Delirium - Left to wither
Delirium - Infernal Majesty

Count me in
(Let's) ride the storm
(And) fend them off
Set Me Free

A source of light - A tower call
Can lead the way
A scent of blood - A lust for life
Will take you home
A broken mind - A Fiery soul
Will stand the pain
A tightened fist - A will divine
Can break the chain

Come see it - Come feel it
It is here
Come see it - Come feel it
It's alive

Delirium - Out of bounds
Delirium - Dying inside
Delirium - Left to wither
Delirium - Infernal Majesty

Count me in
(Let's) ride the storm
(And) fend them off
Set Me Free

To The Mountains

I Lost Touch With me
I was And Still Am Fire
Ignite! To the Mountains

Live Breath Sense Move
I know It pains me too
Ignite! To the Mountains

Lies, deceit
Fright, escape
Caught, burdened
Gone, trapped
Get up, on your feet
Give me, your very self
It's time to Rise!

Persist Progress
Chin up
And Ignite!
To the Mountains

Cast the light - deadly trail
I see it now
Sky is lit - opens up
I want my share
Lift me up - carry me
I need you now
Heal the wounds - bloody deep
I have to stop
Ignite! To the Mountains
