Nocturnal funeral


[lyrics: Emetic]

In the fields of death at an hour of destruction the wind blew cold
A vast field of tombstones and cenotaphs all moisture-stained
As I walked across the field I noticed a human circle formation
Standing at the edge of a yet uncovered grave deep in mourn

[ch.:]
Buried and forgotten
In the dark and cold
In the moisty ground
Burial at night

Funeral

In the name of the father, the son and the antichrist
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust to reign in death
From the innermost depths of the open sepulcher
I heard a human cry for life and freedom

[ch.]

"I was mortal but I am fiend, I was merciless
My teeth shatter as I speak to you
yet it's not with the chilliness of the night
but this hideousness is insufferable"

[ch.]

That deep, hollow, inhuman voice echoed
Echoed down from the pits of the uncovered grave
The former human voice was now transformed
The former human voice is now the voice of the fiend

[ch.]

[bridge:]
Behold the vast formations of a funeral in the dark
Behold with fear the signs after a nocturnal funeral

[repeat bridg]

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics NOCTURNAL FUNERAL of TIAMAT is also present in the album Sumerian cry (1990)

Biografia

Tiamat is a Swedish heavy metal band formed in Stockholm in 1988. Considered pioneers of the doom/death metal genre, they have explored diverse sounds throughout their career, ranging from black metal to progressive and gothic metal. Over the years, Tiamat's sound has evolved towards a darker and more atmospheric direction, incorporating electronic and post-rock influences. Some of their most representative tracks include "The Astral Sleep", "Cain's Offering" and "Vote for Destruction". The album "Clouds" (1992) is considered a turning point in their discography, marking their transition into a more atmospheric and introspective phase. Tiamat has collaborated with artists such as Peter Tägtgren (Hypocrisy) and Johan Längqvist (Dark Tranquillity).
