| 1. The Dawn
[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen Lyrics: Maensivu]
Little child now it's time to close your eyes
and soon into my hands you will fall
I am the ruler of dreams
In midnight hour you will enter my world
Darkness knocks on your door, dreamtime arrives
Your world is gone, you have entered |

Каждый из нас рано или поздно занимается тем, что перебирает старые вещи — ну, возьмём к примеру, фотографии. Какие-то из снимков практически не задерживаются в руках, мысленно отмечая: “Ага, это я помню, но в целом это маловажно”, а какие-то мы держим в руках долго, пристально всматриваясь в лица давних друзей, которых, возможно, уже и нет с нами, и придаваясь сладостным воспоминаниям о молодых годах и шальных проделках юности. Похожее состояние и с музыкой — одни переиздания старых, давно забытых работ, вызывают закономерные вопросы: "Ну почему я это не слышал тогда?!", а другие — лишь унылую реакцию: "Зачем выкопали еще и это старье, кому оно сейчас нужно?". Вторых, как правило, большинство и, пожалуй, взвесив все "за" и "против", Eternal Oath можно отнести именно к этой категории — на "Hatred" можно услышать добротный death doom середины 90-х годов, разом напоминающий как о Crematory времен "Illusions", так и о Tiamat альбомов "Clouds" и "Wildhoney" с похожими атмосферными ходами, протяжными гитарными риффами и сочным гроулом, вот только не хватает — правильно, не хватает собственной выразительности и, что самое главное, возможности мысленно перенестись в то время и вычеркнуть из памяти сотни подобных релизов. Если вы стремитесь собрать у себя в коллекции все релизы классического death doom’a, то Eternal Oath доставит вам истинное удовольствие, в противном случае никаких эмоций, кроме "это я уже слышал 105 раз", получить от переиздания “Hatred” не получится. Ах, да, чуть не забыл — на закуску в качестве бонуса имеется кавер-версия на песню At The Gates “The Fevered Circle” — за неё еще дополнительный балл, хорошо она у них получилась…(Диск предоставлен компанией Mystic Empire) |

The dawn-bringing the tears of the world
The dawn-also driving the darkness away
Arriving to the city among clouds
In here you can be whatever you want
We travel through lands, times and deeds
Realm of opportunities lies just in front of your eyes
The truth is gone, beaten by the fantasy
Darkness reaches for you, but you're safe until..
The dawn-bringing the tears of the world
The dawn-also driving the darkness away
Little child...
2. Harmonic Souls Departed
[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen/Almquist/Jonsson Lyrics: Maensivu]
Friends for long, yet now its bygone
gone like winter fades to spring
Leaving marks in our heart like
red-cryed eyes leaves a salty taste,
as it flows free down our face
to end up on a pillow and
then be forgotten with time
Sworn friendship supposed to last forever
Ended such fast as it had begun,
Your decision of a shortcut,
instead of rising up on your feet
still seems inconceivable
Like a scared little one, crying in the corner
You left me behind in pain
"What choises does a leaf have,
When the autumn appears"
was the last question you had
before you ended your days
It can only fall, no matter how much it
wants to live, It can only fall...
Goodbye my friend, now when i'm alone
I'm keeping the memory of you alive
The picture of you smiling remains
in my heart, someday it's my turn
I will never forget you
3. So Silent
[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen/Jonsson Lyrics: Maensivu]
My thoughts travelling
the endless passage of curiosity
Within hours I weaken
He stares straight through me
Hungering for the last of the glow in me
Dilution of my will stealing all the odds
So silent, will my mind give up
Control is no longer up to me
Weakened I await for the final touch
of death to strike for me
So silent, So silent...
The candle on the table unmasks his presence
by a shadow and I feel the emptiness that
Radiates from him
So silent, will my mind give up
Control is no longer up to me
Weakened I await for the final touch
of death to strike for me
So silent, So silent...
Absurd dreams reaching for a truth
Lost in the fantasy
Beyond the walls of immortal life
becomes reality
So silent...
4. Insanity
[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen Lyrics: Maensivu]
My decisions are my law, matter to me
Concern of no-one else, living on my own
growing free, guided by none
A savior of my own
Like trees decides within to grow
You'll have no rights to criticise me
Who the hell made you god?
You don't have a mind of your own
You're living by rules
Rules made by others like you
Through this silent world I crawled
Alone in the shivering darkness
I stand on my own in this world so gone
I don't need no helping hand from anyone
See it as gods gift, if it's what pleases you
But it is cause of my roots, annealed by
my growing
For the sake of mine, I'm pleasing thy god
Into a lie, in for your lie
Lost from the path of harmony
Tortuous shore shatters last dreams
Dreams of hope to make it through the day
Broken man lies confused
Crying him back to sleep
5. Eternal Rest
[Music: Tarvainen/Dziuba Lyrics: Maensivu]
Sworn to rise from his eternal rest
If he were invoked by a human hand,
who knows gods forgotten name
It can undo the creation of the earth
Make god to a...
Slave, to the prince of dark
You're spilling your own blood, behold
Stop that betraying man from making such
a mistake, he's insane, You mad jezebel of...
Evil, You don't know what you've done
You're spilling your own blood
Seems like a dream, yet it is not
I've been given powers to command storms,
Children of the night, beasts of prey
Yet i'm still feared and hated
O, thee faithful believers so blind
Look what your god has done to me
Now not to be stopped, I'm summoned to rise
Behold I am the mutation of gods anger
Doomed to struggle in the darkness of the night
To disappear in the dawn
6. Dream Of Rising
[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen/Almquist Lyrics: Maensivu]
Shadows has now become my dominion
I am self nothing but a shadow
Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be
Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be
Tears has frozen on my cheeks
Brought by memorires
Brought by the disbelief in my faith
Touched by the winds of sadness
I've become the object of pity
I cannot fly through the skies of happiness
Though my wings are broken, so broken
Someday...
I will rise and feel the for so long denied
Air under my wings, but until then it is only
A dream, though my wings are broken
Shadows has now become my dominion
I am self nothing but a shadow
Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be
Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be
7. Beyond Forgiveness
Times of forgiveness passing by
my anguish stays within my torn open soul
fall with me
A fallen tear, lost in the darkest red
deep within all the pain lies hidden, a shade of life
Embraced by night I arise, shaped by a theft of innocense
Once again the...
Times of forgiveness passing by
my anguish stays within my torn open soul
fall with me
Enlighten my path, let your eyes guide my way
Shrouded in your sin, together we fall
Hate - guides my every step, so
Frail - is the line of your life
Depraved - the world around you
Hate
Times of forgiveness passing by
my anguish stays within my torn open soul
fall with me
8. Without Tears
Guilt is consuming me from inside
Feasting on my tortured soul
I cannot undo the happened time
Marked for life with the memory
Without tears, fallen from the hand of god
Lost within the shadows
Without flames I burn, without death I die.. within
I close my eyes forsaken by time
In my hands the fragments of a withered dream
Will I endure forever in your shade
This subtle torture increasing
Without tears, fallen from the hand of god
Lost within the shadows
Without flames I burn, without death I die.. within
Swallowed by the darkness, my impaired mind misled
By the lack of harmony, with my arms outstretched
Shattered pictures of a lost happiness
Times never to be returned again
My adament cry echoes through all time
Forever more
Swallowed by the darkness, my impaired mind misled
By the lack of harmony, with my arms outstretched
Without tears, fallen from the hand of god
Lost within the shadows
Without flames I burn, without death I die.. within
9. Angel Of Deception
"Forever" you said, another lie
you gave me only fragments of your love
don't you have any pride, any feelings
my angel of deception, deadly as time
You left me behind betrayed
how could I be so stupid to believe,
that I could trust you again
I gave my life into your hands,
but you just let me fall
My angel of deception
A lady bitch, real temptress
You cannot pull me any deeper
I?ve already reached the bottom of sorrow
Torn apart and thrown away
Alone - with my tears, my wounded pride
Beaten - on my knees unable to rise
Stolen - is all I valued in life
Alone - with my angel of deception
"Forever" you said, another lie
you gave me only fragments of your love
don't you have any pride, any feelings
my angel of deception, deadly as time
10. When The Dreams Die
I tried to hide my fear of losing her
But she knew, she saw it in my eyes
Entrance of death, the last embrace
I hear the beating, the beating of wings
Another sunrise, another day of tears
When the dreams die, is there no end of pain
The final moment, they gave me one last look
Into a tempting glare they disappeared
Bereaved, left alone, in the mist of sorrow
But I know I'll meet them both again... one day
Every day I fear to wake up
To hear the whispering of sorrow
Awaiting for you to come and take me away
One day
Another sunrise, another day of tears
When the dreams die, is there no end of pain
Once again I hear the beating of wings
Death lays a hand on my shivering chest
I look into her angel-like, sad eyes
And in them I see my beloved one... finally
11. The Funeral Winds
Throughout pain we learn that harmony bleeds
Stabbed by the daggers of death, wind whispers its sorrow
Weakness splays his wings, infecting my dreams
The sand of time slipping through our hands
I tried to hold on to the last of the grains
There's no excuses for incautiousness
It took a life to learn, life of someone else
You never blamed me the way I did
But no comfort found now that you're gone
The funeral winds blowing once again
Pierces our hearts with it's mournful song
The winds of grief raging endlessly
Leaving a painful stillness behind
Sadly staring the eyes no longer see
Left was the silence from the calm
I forever prayed that I would be spared
The same wind one day will be my salvation
Throughout pain we learn that harmony bleeds
Stabbed by the daggers of death, wind whispers its sorrow
Weakness splays his wings, infecting my dreams
The sand of time slipping through our hands
I tried to hold on to the last of the grains
The funeral winds blowing once again
Pierces our hearts with it's mournful song
The winds of grief raging endlessly
Leaving a painful stillness behind
The funeral winds blowing once again
Pierces our hearts with it's mournful song
12. Lost Somewhere Between
With my guilt and my fear I condemned myself
Into this eternal dream, that weights like sin
How easily a human life is ruined
Lost somewhere between, sure I fly, in the sea of flames
Lost somewhere between, burned to tears and I drown
Like a withered rose in the hands of a new-born
Squeezed to dust and thrown into the wind
Lost somewhere between, sure I fly, in the sea of flames
Lost somewhere between, burned to tears and I drown
With my guilt and my fear I condemned myself
Into this eternal dream, that weights like sin
13. Through The Eyes Of Hatred
Fading is the world you had in your hands
Changing is the landscape of time
Through the eyes of hatred
Forever burning in your heart, a lost decade
Through the eyes of hatred
The world evolves, never try to change the course of time
Misguided through the endless mist
Close your eyes again
Fading is the world you had in your hands
Changing is the landscape of time
Life fades, into your hands
Times upon the restless world, search your life
Through the eyes of hatred
Forever burning in your heart, a lost decade
Through the eyes of hatred
The world evolves, never try to change the course of time
Misguided through the endless mist
Close your eyes again
Fading is the world you had in your hands
Changing is the landscape of time
14. The Secret Flame
Ever through forgotten worlds, hand in hand
Floating on our amazement, decided to stand
Behind this sophisticated outer illusion
Lies endless desires forever attempting
To reach fullfillness, pleasures unawakened
In disguise of dreams, in your arms...
Forever keep it burning, the secret flame
Our lives soon come to pass
Never let it fade, the secret flame
Feeding of your thoughts
Withered skies, fallen from grace
Open your eyes to your world
In your tears lies the truth
Open your eyes to your world
Loss of reason, behind the mask, web of truth
Echoes of desires innermost, through the time
Betray your nature with the lies, forever they lie
Tempted by your need, more time
Forever keep it burning, the secret flame
Our lives soon come to pass
Never let it fade, the secret flame
Feeding of your thoughts
Ever through forgotten worlds, hand in hand
Floating on our amazement, decided to stand
15. Soulpoem
Memories of a young girl, now gone beyond the dreams
Reminding me of how short our time is
In our tears lies the trace of this sad tragedy
But the memories remain forever to be
I open my eyes only to see the sadness lie
She has fallen hard, but now been picked up to shine
Innocent, full of life, in our minds she will live
On secure hands she rests safe
In our tears lies the trace of this sad tragedy
But the memories remain forever to be
Why...
Tell my why...
