lyrics
Vastness of nothingness, this is where the voices speak, piercing the veil, For what they seek.
Verse I pt. B: The reversal, of time, can one abide?
Forbidden, eye, shackles of life.
The mind, restrained, can I obey?
Yearning, for, infinite light.
The smallest, grain, can it contain?
Burning, for, blink of an eye.
Just out, of sight, am I blind?
To the, beast, of Eleusis.
Verse I pt. C: Erecting the nightmare, to awaken the golden dawn.
Pre Chorus I: Midnight's on our hands, once again.
The smell of Death overwhelms.
The blood curdling screams of hell.
The heavy breath prevails.
Chorus I: Doors are opening, to the awakening.
Lifeless entity, Rite of awakening.
Darkness beckoning, to the awakening.
Endless suffering, Rite of awakening.
Verse II pt. A: The ritual, begins, in the woods, moon light, bohemian grove.
Blood, will spill, through the night,
Verse II pt. B: Catharsis, of spirits, blind me tonight.
Weaving, the spiders, and their lies.
The owls gaze, a perfect phase.
Scorching through, infinite waves.
Guiding the shrine of might.
Leading me to the light.
Burning eyes, judgement lies.
Calling forth, darkness inside.
Verse II pt. C: Erecting the nightmare, to awaken the golden dawn.
Pre Chorus II: Midnight's on our hands, once again.
The smell of Death overwhelms.
The blood curdling screams of hell.
The heavy breath prevails.
Chorus II: Doors are opening, to the awakening.
Lifeless entity, Rite of awakening.
Darkness beckoning, to the awakening.
Endless suffering, Rite of awakening.
Post Chorus I:
Breakdown:
Bridge/Solo:
Chorus III: Doors are opening, to the awakening.
Lifeless entity, Rite of awakening.
Darkness beckoning, to the awakening.
Endless suffering, Rite of awakening.
Outro:
The blood will shed for the life you lead.
Chorus: Doors are opening, to the awakening, Eleusis rumbling, penetrate my mind.
Weaver of the dreams, lead to resurrect, buried just beneath, In a nameless grave.

by Firelinksupported by 15 fans who also own “Rite of Awakening”
This is their most black metal sounding album. Later albums started to sound like modern metal or with hints of djent influence. Great debut by the band. I love Dark Souls and black metal, so this is great!
