Towards the Night

The vast plains are out of my sight
You’ve took my hands and shown me the signs
A journey that leads to the dark,
where the fire can finally spark
And I’m gonna dance with you towards the night
And we’re gonna burn as we ought to
Through many different times and towards the night
A transcendental dive in your eyes,
I’ve drowned into your cosmic tides
The world we lived in was all a lie
I’ve shook my head and I’ve looked to the sky
cause there’s a whole world beyond
And there’s the whole truth to find,
this world is shallow and we are blind,
but i won’t let you out of my mind
And I’m gonna dance with you towards the night
And we’re gonna burn as we ought to
Through many different times and towards the night
I’m gonna dance with you towards the night
I’m gonna dance with you
Among the stars
Bring me your love
And love me to death
And I’m gonna dance with you towards the night
And we’re gonna burn as we ought to
Through many different times and towards the night

You and Me and Eternity
03:53

We’ve painted our face with dust from the stars, we were drifting away far above the clouds
We were watching ourselves as we wandered through the streets, as we lived our life through these dreams
Two careless souls we have seen, hand in hand on the scene of time
You just have to close your eyes to escape all those lies
When will our eyes see the light?
Cause you know we are dying when the colors turns to grey
When will our eyes see the light?
Colorless blinding dance over the milky way
Am I tripping cause I feel like I’m decaying?
And that it’s my offering to whenever I’m feeling mean
And if you want me to, I can take you through the emptiness in you
Seeing things you never thought were true
All the souls are creating tides crashing on the mortal minds
You just have to close your eyes to escape all those lies
When will our eyes see the light?
Cause you know we are dying when the colors turns to grey
When will our eyes see the light?
Colorless blinding dance over the milky way
It’s you and me and eternity
It’s you and me and eternity

Ritual
03:55

Witch, bitch just call my name
The blood's dripping down from your veins
Witch, bitch just call my name
The knife is ready to put down in your chest
Black ritual, blood ritual
The broth is tinged with blood and pain
Inhale the smokes of the devil's domain
Witch, bitch, feel the drugs in your brain
The knife is ready to put down in your heart
Sigils of blood painted on the stone walls
The key is in the secret door
The flames are burning bright tonight
The key is in the secret door
Black ritual, blood ritual

Guru's Eye

Follow me, so you can live without fear
Come to me, through the dark and divine
Fanatics live through me
Dance around me, around the flames
Live through me
See through the eye
In the flames is where you’ll find the truth
Live through me
See through the eye
In the flames is where you’ll find the truth
You were buried in blind void
Underneath the soil of doubt
You were lost in a downwards spiral of times
Buried in a blind void
And follow me, so you can live without fear
Come to me, through the dark and divine
Fanatics live through me,
Dance around me, around the flames
Look through the guru’s eye, and you’ll be mine
Look through the guru’s eye, and you’ll be mine

The Gates
The Gates play „Magik Metal“, combining old school Occult Rock & Psych Metal with Black Metal vocals. Visually, they use classic psych imagery such as colourful artwork and magic mushrooms in combination with occult symbols and occasional nods to the Nazisploitation movies of the 70s (a tribute to old school B-movies & cult flicks), while their lyrics focus on occultism & psychedelic experiences. ... more
