1) Intro - Under the Banner
1:10, instrumental
2) In Halls of Twilight
5:44, lyrics:
Where mountains slice the sky
Where twilight drips from above
Where shadows lurk beneath the stones
Where the earthbound sing their hymns of dirt
Where time moves slow
Where decay wears a silken mask
When you are thrown into the lion's den
When faith gets tested
Your heart sees more than an eye
When the nocturnal die praising the mud
When golden lies pour into your chalice
Withstand in the halls of twilight
On narrow paths you shall escape
In this world
But not from this world
Remember what're used to be
Marching out of Babylon
Der Herr sei mit uns
3) Tausend Jahre Kälte
("Thousand Years Cold" on SkyBurnsBlack)
5:38, lyrics:
tausend Jahre Kälte
diese Nacht ist dein
tausend Jahre - keine Antwort
die Leere deines Seins
ein endloser Winter
ein grauer Schleier um dein Haupt
ein leeres Wort - du freier Mensch
überhöht, seiner selbst beraubt
abgewandt von euch
streifen wir durch den Nebel
tausend Jahre Kälte
der Megiddo-Zeit entgegen
4) Lied der Stille
("The Lied Silent" on SkyBurnsBlack)
3:33, lyrics:
Darum spricht der Heilige Israels: Weil ihr dies Wort verwerft und verlasst euch auf Frevel und Mutwillen und trotzt darauf, so soll euch diese Sünde sein wie ein Riss, wenn es beginnt zu rieseln an einer hohen Mauer, die plötzlich, unversehens einstürzt; wie wenn ein Topf zerschmettert wird, den man zerstößt ohne Erbarmen, sodass man von seinen Stücken nicht eine Scherbe findet, darin man Feuer hole vom Herde oder Wasser schöpfe aus dem Brunnen. Denn so spricht Gott der Herr, der Heilige Israels: Wenn ihr umkehrtet und stille bliebet, so würde euch geholfen; durch Stillesein und Hoffen würdet ihr stark sein.

5) Through the Black
6:46, lyrics:
with Christ on our side
we march through the black
through the blackest nights
our hearts still beat in the black
facing mockery and scorn
we keep moving through the black
spiritual warfare lies ahead
the everdead are screaming
demonic forces all around
stand strong for Christ
treasure his light
twilight woods surround us
don't you ever fear the black
the creator of all is with you
on your path through the black
a covenant of blood saved you
won't ever be lost in the black
Christ our saviour is with us
on the battlefields of the mind
satanic reign won't last forever
final justice will triumph on a glorious day
6) Outro - Torches in the Void
1:48, instrumental

1) The Purity of Silence
6:03, lyrics:
When you enter the domain of silence
Parting ways with a surreal state of mind
Barbs of materialistic fear
Have poisoned the flesh for too long
Hiding in the name of the Lord
The mental abyss is roaring below
Enter the domain of tranquility
Where timeless perceptions still dwell
Through the purity of silence
A path to the powers within
Beyond the icons of emptiness
The ancient whispers can be heard
The wooden cathedrals await you
To tame the fury of the soul
Parting ways with a surreal state of mind
Barbs of materialistic fear
Have poisoned the flesh for too long
Hiding in the name of the Lord
The mental abyss is roaring below
Enter the domain of tranquility
Where timeless perceptions still dwell
Through the purity of silence
A path to the powers within
Beyond the icons of emptiness
The ancient whispers can be heard
The wooden cathedrals await you
To tame the fury of the soul
2) Ad Astra
5:35, lyrics:
Haze of the moon
Nocturnal awareness
Subtle light of wisdom eternally
Lord let me rise to see
Emergence and fading in my heart
Cosmic rhythm brightens the night
Glimpse of old lore from afar
Falling upwards, through starshine gates
Nocturnal awareness
Subtle light of wisdom eternally
Lord let me rise to see
Emergence and fading in my heart
Cosmic rhythm brightens the night
Glimpse of old lore from afar
Falling upwards, through starshine gates
3) Bones
2:29, lyrics unknown
4) A Beggar's Chalice
6:58, lyrics:
From pain and despair
I gave to birth to these lines
Sum up eternal winters
Under dead skies
The lonely and the awkward
Hum to this song
Thy will, their noose
The minds of the wrong
Dressed in sackcloth
Collecting the stars
A beggar's chalice
A beggar's scars
Through pain and despair
We reach out to thee
Holding nothing
But a faithful melody
I gave to birth to these lines
Sum up eternal winters
Under dead skies
The lonely and the awkward
Hum to this song
Thy will, their noose
The minds of the wrong
Dressed in sackcloth
Collecting the stars
A beggar's chalice
A beggar's scars
Through pain and despair
We reach out to thee
Holding nothing
But a faithful melody
5) Westfälisches Zwielicht
2:04, instrumental
6) Mangle the Demon
5:31, lyrics:
Factories of mindlessness
Institutionalized filth
Human doctrine, ego war
Self made regalness
Demanding to lead
To guide the way
Selling false truth
Pristine robes, what lurks inside?
Domination of the few
Maintaining the order, selling wisdom
Many suffer below
Water and wine, you don't care
Violating his name
Human doctrine, ego war
Self made regalness
Reclaim what was meant for you
Mangle the demon
Open the eyes, break the chains
Holy Spirit guides the way
Institutionalized filth
Human doctrine, ego war
Self made regalness
Demanding to lead
To guide the way
Selling false truth
Pristine robes, what lurks inside?
Domination of the few
Maintaining the order, selling wisdom
Many suffer below
Water and wine, you don't care
Violating his name
Human doctrine, ego war
Self made regalness
Reclaim what was meant for you
Mangle the demon
Open the eyes, break the chains
Holy Spirit guides the way
7) Glass Scars of Winter
(tape version + 2019 Bandcamp version only!)
3:00, lyrics:
Glass scars of winter
Northernmost rage
Sanctity unleashed
Aeon of wrath to come
Northernmost midnight
Ice tears above
Primal words rising
Structure dissolves at last
Bitterness boiling
Grim claws of frost
All seals broken
Aeon of wrath to come
Northernmost rage
Sanctity unleashed
Aeon of wrath to come
Northernmost midnight
Ice tears above
Primal words rising
Structure dissolves at last
Bitterness boiling
Grim claws of frost
All seals broken
Aeon of wrath to come
