Carpathian Forest Ancient Spirit of the Underworld Lyrics: Overhead the thunder cracked and roared And when it ceased the deathlike silence Chilled my marrow and bones The need to feel dead was killing him Like death itself Evil is found in the earliest Oldest and the most dreadful Memories of humanity Eternally feared by gods primitive men Pale visions, death-pale they were all Still cursed, haunted and alone Killing woman, children and men Sparing neither age nor sex A place where reality is worthless And all you want is to be left alone They grind the land like corn Showing no mercy Spilling the blood like rain Devouring their flesh and sucking Dry their veins... The undead leaves their graves In misty transformations You see half-visible bodies Floating through the night The ancient spirits of the underworld All the trees were lifeless and dead And there were no birds singing The reign of man is over Drained for all its powers He saw their starving lips shake With a horrid grin gaped wide And the corpse lies on the cold hill side His spirit is carried away By the northwinds into eternity Satanism, evil and anti-Christianity.
