Necropolis
Antichrist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sail the seas of blood to reach the gates of hell
Journey to the darkest known domain
To a place where only death remains
As if possessed in a trance we enter the gates
Within this mystic world our fate awaits
Behind these massive pillars made of stone
Mysterious
City of the dead
Delirious
A portal now ahead
In rivers of madness, in oceans of grief
Mysterious power beyond belief
In temples and tombs of a world most unreal
Its terrible secrets will soon be revealed
A freezing wind pierces my soul
Lost in the mist, lost all control
Sinister visions torturing me
At last I turn to insanity
Our quest, our search for the key
The power that will set us free
Desire, immortality
The answer will be the end of me
Within sepulchral
Catacombs we brood
Trapped inside this monolithic tomb
The mother of darkness, the eater of souls
Submit to the mystical power she holds
“Now you have travelled across the river Styx,
To arrive at the shores of doom. But you will
Go no further, your souls will be damned in the
Shadows of an endless tomb.
Death has dominion in Necropolis”
The lyrics of "Necropolis" by Antichrist are a description of a journey to the underworld, a place where only death remains. The singer sets sail to this place where evil dwells, sailing the seas of blood to reach the gates of hell. As they enter this mystical world, their fate awaits them in a place where only death remains. The journey takes them to a mysterious city of the dead, where they encounter powerful and terrible secrets that will soon be revealed. They are trapped inside a monolithic tomb, where they encounter the mother of darkness, the eater of souls, and submit to her mystical power.
The overall theme of the song is that of a descent into madness and darkness, where the singer is consumed by the power of the underworld. The use of powerful imagery and metaphors, such as the rivers of madness and oceans of grief, creates a sense of foreboding and doom. The use of mystical and supernatural elements adds to the eerie and haunting atmosphere of the song.

Journey to the darkest known domain
Travel to the most obscure, shadowy place

As if possessed in a trance we enter the gates
We enter through the gates as if we are under the influence of dark forces
Within this mystic world our fate awaits
Our destiny is in store for us in this magical realm
Behind these massive pillars made of stone
Beyond these enormous stone columns
We make our way through a maze of human bones
We navigate through a labyrinth of skeletal remains
Mysterious
Enigmatic, baffling
City of the dead
Metropolis of deceased individuals
Delirious
Mentally unstable, disoriented
A portal now ahead
A gateway is now visible
In rivers of madness, in oceans of grief
In overwhelming feelings of confusion and hardship
Mysterious power beyond belief
Unfathomable energy that defies comprehension
In temples and tombs of a world most unreal
Inside spiritual buildings and burial sites of an otherworldly realm
Its terrible secrets will soon be revealed
Its dreadful truths will be exposed soon
A freezing wind pierces my soul
I feel a chilling blast that penetrates deep into my being
Lost in the mist, lost all control
Confused and disoriented, no longer able to maintain composure
Sinister visions torturing me
Disturbing mental images causing me anguish
At last I turn to insanity
I finally succumb to a state of madness
Our quest, our search for the key
Our mission to find the crucial element
The power that will set us free
The energy that will liberate us
Desire, immortality
Longing for eternal life
The answer will be the end of me
The solution will ultimately result in my demise
Within sepulchral
Inside a funereal
Catacombs we brood
We ponder within underground tombs
Trapped inside this monolithic tomb
Confined in this gigantic burial chamber
The mother of darkness, the eater of souls
The creator of obscurity, the absorber of spirits
Submit to the mystical power she holds
Surrender to the magical energy she possesses
"Now you have travelled across the river Styx,
Now you have crossed the river that separates the living from the dead
To arrive at the shores of doom. But you will
To come to the terminus of destruction. But you are
Go no further, your souls will be damned in the
Proceed no longer, your spirits will be cursed in the
Shadows of an endless tomb.
Obscurity of a perpetual mausoleum.
Death has dominion in Necropolis"
Death reigns supreme in Necropolis
