Crystalline geode Sparkling beautifully What a terrible portent That you open for me A blighted realm beyond For the unlucky soul Trapped within this bauble And spent like coin for power Black soul gem Filled with the vanquished Black soul gem To be utilized Black soul gem Resource for enchantment Black soul gem A pawn upon the altar Blood was spilled To fulfill this purpose Of powering a weapon Used to slaughter those Who stand before me Who I name as my foes And sunder their frail vessels While my power grows Black soul gem Sustaining cursed existence Black soul gem Enslaved to Ideal Masters Black soul gem A morally grey action Black soul gem Sent to the Soul Cairn Cast off your corpse Enter the gem Become a source Oh

Far beneath the depths of Nirn Where mechanical might breeds From the mind of Sotha Sil A city of metal Ugh Clockwork City Pinnacle of Dunmer science Clockwork City Example of Aedric defiance Clockwork City Where constructs are created Clockwork City Where reality is debated Inspired by the Dwemer Deep Dweller-style technology In a palace of gears and rotation The greatest mind does dwell Ugh Clockwork City Pinnacle of Dunmer science Clockwork City Example of Aedric defiance Clockwork City Where constructs are created Clockwork City Where reality is debated Deep down below Where the cogs shift and turn Creating perfect replica Of imperfect Nirn Experiment on the Mundus Led by a living god Seeking grim transcendence Of what seems strange and odd No matter the fate Of the Tribunal Here he shall dwell Awaiting future's funeral No matter the fate Of the Tribunal Here he shall dwell Awaiting future's funeral Remembered as a falsehood Here he lives forever As a monument to pride Drifting into never Oh

Queen of Dawn and Dusk Lady of the Night Azura of the Crimson Gate Mother Soul and Goddess of Twilight She is our patron deity The Daedric Prince of our piety We are her chosen, Dunmer of Morrowind And we will follow her until this kalpa's end Though there was a time when we turned our backs And betrayed the Cosmic Severer in favour of three hacks She turned our golden hides a shade of deeper blue A lesson not forgotten in any era soon With the Tribunal gone we engaged in Reclamation The Three Good Daedra returned to rightful station And I will follow her until the end of time As faithful now until the day that I die Azura is my matron and I her willing patron The Twilight speaks through me unto the Dunmer matron She guides me through the darkness and unto sweeter roses And will pleasure all heretics she disposes Dearest Azura, lady of the night Queen of Roses, of the Dusk and Dawn Lord of the Daedric realms of Oblivion I beseech thee Will you please give me the strength to go and face my foes And slay all those who oppose thee I am your willing servant Your humble slave I will do thy bidding for you are my Mother Goddess

Foul Murder 05:27
Upon that cursed hill Volcanic, spewing ash Where House Dagoth arose To usurp the nation I drew a mighty blade And struck down my oldest friend Lord Nerevar deceased By my hand he met his end Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder For an age I kept this secret Hidden in the gospel Within the Lessons of Vivec Confession of my crime Slain to retain the Heart Lorkhan's mighty vessel The source of all our power That Indoril would destroy Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder Foul murder

Kalpa's End 05:54
The time is soon at hand Apocalypse draws near It's happened all before It's destiny, have no fear But the scourge can be avoided If you learn to walk the path A sideways way of walking Across the World Serpent's back Reality will be reborn The kalpa will begin anew And life shall return to normal Until time once again is due At the jaws of a World Eater Or a crisis of invasion From otherworldly forces Who want to destroy creation Akatosh has delayed us And kept the timeline going For a reason as yet unknown As the gods' purpose avoids knowing We know the time will draw close And fold in upon itself But when the Great Dragon dies There shall be no men or elves The normal of Nirn will die And be replaced by something else We cannot predict What comes to fill these cells Perhaps all will be Void Consumed within by Sithis Oh, all that we can know Is that the Dreamsleeve will be with us Ah

Numidium 04:35
Anumidium, Dwemer brass god Huge golem of conquering size The Prime Gestalt of foul purpose Powered by the Heart of Lorkhan Created by the Tonal Architects Machine of Kagrenac's design Blasted metalwork so grim and bold Meant to defeat the Chimer And reclaim Resdayn for the Dwarves But the makers vanished without a trace And Tiber Septim found the device And with it conquered all of Tamriel Numidium Numidium Numidium Numidium Numidium Numidium Numidium Numidium Conquering with terror Dark Dwemer might Slaying all enemies Instilling fright Vanquish thy challenger With this great beast Of brass and bulkheads On nations it feasts Submit to the will Of the new Emperor Dynasty established With an Aedric heart-core Gaze upon the Heart And recognize what you see The Septim superweapon And Tamriel's destiny Oh

The elves took our land and slew my kin There in the olden realm of Skyrim I was there when they slew my sons Destroyed Saarthal and sent me on the run With tears in my eyes I fled to the sea Back to Atmora with a desperate plea To unite my clans underneath my axe And pillage forth to take our lands back We 500 are on the Return To reclaim what the elves had purged We Companions of Ysgramor Return to Tamriel with a heart for war We 500 are on the Return To reclaim what the elves had purged We Companions of Ysgramor Return to Tamriel with a heart for war Bleeding out on the snow we waged a great war Onto Hsaarik Head we land with sword and oar To lay death upon the Falmer vile and white And enact vengeance for the tearful night We ran them underground where the Dwemer dwell And so the kingdom of the Snow Elves fell With their Snow Prince dead by Nordic hands Wuuthrad shines mighty in the sun upon these wild lands We 500 are on the Return To reclaim what the elves had purged We Companions of Ysgramor Return to Tamriel with a heart for war We 500 are on the Return To reclaim what the elves had purged We Companions of Ysgramor Return to Tamriel with a heart for war We 500 are on the Return To reclaim what the elves had purged We Companions of Ysgramor Return to Tamriel with a heart for war Victory is in our grasp For the Atmoran people deserve this land Victory has been well earned 500 men and women, for Sovngarde they yearned Fight for your home Fight for your shores Fight with all your might Fight for your fucking life

The Refugees 07:14
In the wake of volcanic eruption We had to make a quick escape Traverse north through the Velothi Mountains Avoiding shifting tectonic plates Through dark trials and tribulations We left our home and arrived in foreign lands Treated like some foul scum At the behest of Nordic hands We are the refugees We are the refugees Now we make our home here In this hostile wintry environ Unwanted by the native folk They hate our guts Settling into the stone-walled cities Windhelm to be where our people now reside Cordoned off from the rest of the world The Grey Quarter is where we live and die Blood spilled in the middle of the night Assassination and murder Assailed by the fists of unruly men Of pathetic drunks and aurochs herders Fallen from such lofty heights We the Dunmer reduced to be crass How we long for the ways of our home Morrowind, reduced to ash We are the refugees We are the refugees We are the refugees We are... We will not go quiet Nor silently into the night The Great Houses shall recover And reclaim our ancient rights Those who mistreated Our people as we asked for aid Shall be the first to have Their throats cut by a Morag Tong blade

Ah! Throat of the World Where the Nords were first Breathed unto Nirn With the voice of Kyne Ancient mountain Revered and mighty Highest peak in Tamriel After Red Mountain fell Tower of snow Metaphysical concept Now lies sundered Kingless and bleeding Where the ancient Nords stood proud Against the World Eater, Alduin And used the Elder Scroll To send him forward in time A great and mystic hollow Where the Greybeards still reside Monastery of grim cold Beneath the dragon Paarthurnax's sight Unmelting snow coats the peak Where the planar barriers weaken So much untold history Is locked away in brumal ice Where the Last Dragonborn comes To fulfill the prophecy And defeat the World Eater At the hands of time magick might Ancient mountain Revered and mighty Highest peak in Tamriel After Red Mountain fell Tower of snow Metaphysical concept Now lies sundered Kingless and bleeding Ancient mountain Revered and mighty Highest peak in Tamriel After Red Mountain fell Tower of snow Metaphysical concept Now lies sundered Kingless and bleeding After all is said and done The tower has been deactivated Now Skyrim stands on the brink Of Old Ehlnofey domination Throat of the World Summit in the north Surrounded by snow and death Encased in grim ice

Webspinner 05:48
Webspinner Our lady Mephala of the night One of the Three Good Daedra Our mother of deeds and plots She spins the web that connects us all Through vile worship in temple halls Imparting a weapon of betrayal and strife That grows in power when one takes a life Dark mother Spider god Of Dunmer Dark mother Spider god Of Dunmer Anticipation of Almalexia She weaves the connections Inspiring blades of murder A sacrifice unto her name Now that the Tribunal has been disposed We have restored her worship Give praise to the arachnoid goddess For she sticks us to the plane of Nirn Ugh Blegh, blegh Dark mother Spider god Of Dunmer Dark mother Spider god Of Dunmer Bow your head and give praise to our lady Mephala of the night Dark queen, mother, goddess of sex, plots, and ritual murder Bow down before her and sacrifice your soul
