1.	Salt of the Land 04:35	lyrics	buy track
Bastard people, breed and die Distrusting, disgusting sheep begging for the slaughter Incapable of real thought, can’t see past the ends of your nose Claiming that you know God’s will, a laughable farce at best Your God is not here today He was never here at all All of your efforts are empty You’re still going to die forever No amount of insistence will make him exist No amount of singing or crying out his names There are no beautiful hosts in heaven Oblivion is all you’ll find on the other side So in the end you’re just pretending Getting dressed every week for church Getting high on endorphins, and calling them Jesus Mass psychosis you refer to as the holy ghost
2.	Monolith 04:24	lyrics	buy track
Given from the heavens Descended from the sky Worship the object You do not understand Thousands of years pass And people pray to an empty sky Worship the sun and deny it Never knowing they honor a copy Mithra and Horus came before Amon Ra the ancient god of Egypt Common thinking worships the weak god Fall on your knees in humble supplication
3.	Doing the Devil's Work 03:57	lyrics	buy track
Come inside this place of damnation Redemption will never rear its head here The violence these walls have seen The blood stains too deep to ever come clean There is no stronger magic than direct defiance of God In carnal wickedness, satisfying my own will My mind is bent on suffering and torture The voices in the walls screaming for me to kill Hell bent for bringing death I only live to mutilate the living Turning beauty into ugliness Making screaming mouths never scream again I am a man of my own will But it brings me such pleasure I am the Devil And I am here to do the Devil’s work There is no stronger magic than direct defiance of God In carnal wickedness, satisfying my own will My mind is bent on suffering and torture The voices in the walls screaming for me to kill
4.	Judgement for All 04:28	lyrics	buy track
You were brought into this world to be tested and tortured To see if you can take the pain, to be worthy to be judged To serve an almighty god who never shows his face And if your faith should fail, you will burn in hell for your disgrace So give unto the church your money and your time Serve unto hypocrisy that they may grow fat and bloated Wickedness incarnate under your nose you cannot smell You’d better fall in line or else you’ll wind up in hell Such conviction and nothing based on fact They’d sooner kill you than question themselves They pretend to bring the word of a loving god And all they bring is judgement for all Holding onto scriptures they think predict the end But your apocalypse is just a bullet away my friend The grip of your control slips further every day And they’re just itching for a holy war to make us pay
5.	Echoes of Madness and Loss 04:36	lyrics	buy track
The storm over the water Waves crashing against the rocks Forces of beauty and chaos Invokes something ancient and primeval The rain strips pretention away The cold robs the mind of intention Retreating back to the shadows Trying to escape what cannot be run from No amount of distance will liberate from the echoes No amount of wandering will allow such sweet escape Calling out to me Haunting my dreams The agony so searing Though the flesh has long since healed
6.	Babylon 06:14	lyrics	buy track
What ancient secrets whispered At the twilight in the hanging gardens A thriving people, powerful and fierce The echoes of doom on the winds of time Hail to Dagon, dragon king on high Failure to recognize, punishable by death An eye for and eye, wrong for wrong Order brought with the edge of the blade Babylon The lost empire Babylon Buried under time We know the Semitic peoples damned them as heathens They warred fiercely, but the ancient city fell And with their silenced voices, so went ancient secrets A path forgotten, lost in the ether
7.	Creavit Daemonia 06:30	lyrics	buy track
Suffer to thee to come unto me Unintentional authors Apply unto me the torture to be The tool of my descent Fallacious accounts of demonic acts Sewn with fear and worry While wishing to teach of the angels in heaven You have shown me the way to hell Ticking clockwork Reinforced obedience Only enforced by a lie Only perception of malediction Creates the need for a cure So bring me fire I will show you Gehenna In the valley of Hinnom I will show you sorrow Ascending steps soaked in blood I will give you your apocalypse I will show you the end Cast out into the wind Born of my own will Into the wilderness I wandered lost 13 years and I will never return The wastelands taught me strength I have seen the strong fall I will see the stronger fall yet Carefully the lie fed Taught with gentleness and care You would not bite the hand that loves There are things out there in the dark Hungry things with teeth and claws So stay where you’re told here in the light Pay no attention to the jaws
8.	Steel and Sinister Mortality 03:52	lyrics	buy track
Breath quickens against a pounding heart Corruption breathed into the lungs bringing on disdain Trivial luxuries enhance the false façade of safety Weapons lay in secret; death remains a silent whisper There are no more hands to save them, falling through the cracks Slipping into eternal darkness, back into the black Endless stillness Aware but unalive Physical blasphemies carried out with swiftness The sickening sounds of the last few moments Wicked in the eyes of God, monster in the eyes of man Blood stained stones hide horrors long forgotten Echoes of slaughter Unceasingly watching
9.	In Darkness Majestic 04:58	lyrics	buy track
Esoteric rumors told behind closed doors Hints toward certainty, but no one says the name Fortune fails for every man, destiny betrays But I’ve looked through the shadows and I know who’s waiting Hela Nirriti Lilith The ancient one You hear her calling at the end of your life That subtle whisper urging you to let go Kings and queens and savages of the wild All come to her in majestic darkness You don’t need to believe to see her in the end The other side of the coin, forever hidden behind the curtain Channels of fate, walking us through our steps But when the strings are cut we all go back to her
10.	Catharsis 04:20	lyrics	buy track
A cold walk home on a night I can’t forget The screaming in my mind against the noise of the rain In just a moment a person’s life can change forever In just a moment it can end There is no point in grieving your mistakes Lying there in the dark in a pool of blood The folly of fools to provoke that which they did not understand And now they’ve paid the price, and now so will I And now I wait for the authorities to arrive Miles away from the scene of the horror In the dark again, here all alone Do I regret it, or do I feel satisfied? They will parade me through the streets And gawk at me the monster which I am I place the barrel up to my temple Fucking waiting, and fuck this shit
