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

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 03:38
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

about

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
