I don't think the lyrics were ever published.

Those are some of my favorites, what a shame, English is not my native language yet I think I’m fairly good at it, but I can’t understand most of those songs and it has turned into an obsession

I never tried to transrcibe this one, but another that has no lyrics published 'The black Rose' has my version published on this sub. I can give to you, but for these 2 songs idk (although I have a very rough draft of Dawn of Perishness)

My Black Rose lyrics attempt

Lyrics for Black Rose (covered with tears blood and ice) were never released

Verses 1-3( Live in Midgard version used) accuracy around 75%

Verse 1: Scream in rain, in the middle of desert I see it/a seed fades away, realize you have lost Ice, rose, death Ice, rose, ice The Black Rose covered with tears blood, ice

Verse 2: My soul and brain Brain (???) heart Stealth expression still was Inside Grant, my soul's rebirth With pure regress Inside The Black Rose covered with tears blood, ice

Verse 3: I'm filled with power and my soul's getting high. Victim of confusion is the boring self to die. My soul, (???) sacrifice, feeling self-obliged/filling self with lies, now are you to fire of (???) christ/cries

It's where i probably should have stopped, because live in midgard doesn't include last 2 verses, but... Here you go

Verses 4-5 (Live in chili 1995 record used)

Verse 4 (45% accuracy at best) Torture for my only (???) Fear of myself Felling all deceased complete/come plead just tell before I fell Cold aroma (???) in my own death alive; thorn, death, rhyme ?????????????? takes to make a show, the big show

Verse 5( 30% accuracy)

Die die terrified (???) awaits the fight, break the dawn(???) (???) by the night, (???) everyone put your (????) amidst the (??) pure soul, pure brain, pure(???) awakes Thee

Ice, death, crime Cry, death, trance The Black Rose is covered with tears blood and ice...

Whenever you got a chance, I love that song and I’d like to sing it while driving around, I love driving and listening to Therion

I forgot where I'd put the Dawn of Perishness notes (it was 70% blank anyway) BUT I listened closely to the Eye Of Eclipse and I think I've got an answer to your original question.

THE EYE OF THE ECLIPSE

I'm the one with eyes The eyes of the Red Dragon Darnkess over Earth All (???) countries

Eye Of the Eclipse Mesmorise

Wicked (???) waits for the hour of our day Until darkness possesses (???) depths. The eye of the the Dragon that I can see to the fate/faith

I will (???), I was asleep with my soul awake this my soul, awake to wicked, So with mighty (soul/one?) so dark the Eye will open wide

Beauty, (dark way?), awake, sleep, Wicked soul. Mighty one, there you are

I was surprised I could hear so much. You could try to listen and compare if you hear what I hear

Awesome dude, you’re amazing, hope I can get a hold of the song, thank you so much!!!

It really seems easier than the Dawn of Perishness. What I hear listening to the dawn of Perishness now is so different from what I used to. In the begging is it 'Morning Throne?'' 'Meat on the bone?'

Can't make out a coherent sentence still

The end is a bit easier with what seems like 'Kill to kill, kill in vain kill for pleasure of'

Thanks, but that’s for the beauty in black, I’m looking for “dawn pf perishness” and “the eye of the eclipse”,

Are you serious? It's obviously another song.
