In The Absence Of Light Lyrics
Desire!
Below a ridge in a sunless place
A monolithic testimony to an ancient fate
What she has built will rise again in might
I take this battle-scarred manse as mine by right
The splendor on an age unbound by sky
In arrogance to light or those that would pass by
From hence go forth as time does allow
A "presence" is felt above and below
Blood drenched
Gauntlets
Clashing
In the absence of light
Storms ride
The sky and earth in turn
They which would deny
In the absence of light
Engage
The ancient art exposed
To devour all
In the absence of light
(...And a foul stench flows from the east
Of those that lurk in the shadows...)
Screams rise
(Of) The lambs of those unseen
Thralls put to rest
In the absence of light

Blood drenched
A gauntlet honed in flesh
The slaughter slakes the earth
In the absence of light
I will dispatch in a blackened hate
All who dare approach this manse of mine!
Tenacious lust at conflict in the night
Another war beast struck down in flight
The moonlit might of a vanquished night
The battle (of the Dark Manse) is mine
Below a ridge in a sunless place
A monolithic testimony to an ancient fate
