A Good Death
05:37
|

Give unto me a good death
The death that I desire
Curse me not to waste away
I would stand and die in fire
The years they have betrayed me
For I have stayed too long
To Valhalla I may never go
Cheated by my fate
Bring me your worthy
Bring your best
I would die in glory
Bring me a good death
Bring out your warriors
Bring out your brave
I am looking for the one
Who will send me to my grave
I will not go quietly
Into the night
Unleash the dogs of war and hell
And bring me a good fight

Descent into Horror
04:53
|
|||
The howling voices deep within
Blood upon my hands
Weakening walls crumble
Broken debris of existence
Violence I have brought manifest
And still more left to do
Answering the screaming calls
Unleashed on a cruel world
Perception distorting rapidly
In the heat of rage
Visiting the horrors within
Upon the flesh unbroken
Gods cower in fear
To see my wrath unleashed
The anguished cries of the ruined
Echoing in the empty
Wickedness flows through my veins
Madness in my mind
Darkness now descends forever
Never broken again
Dead man never lie again
Silent and still
The living filled with deception
Bring on my need to kill

Tome
06:22
|
|||
Secrets hidden behind closed doors
Knowledge kept safely away
Locked away so long ago
Things that mortals should not know
Power held within
To control the supernatural
A new depth of influence
With horrible consequences
It calls out to those it wishes
If you should answer it is your doom
Feel the sway of it's power
Fall under it's control
The book is ancient
Written on the skin of man
In a forgotten language
Origins unknown
It cannot be destroyed
It can only be contained for so long
Once again, it will have it's way
Someone will find it, the horror anew

Belief so freely given
By minds who do not understand
Basic foundations of science
Or the corruption of power
Invented super drugs
Made by a cult
Manufactured for the elite
Who truly run the world
You don't evidence
You don't need proof
You swallow every lie
Doesn't matter how outrageous
Belief in a noble struggle where none exists
A manufactured shadow government
Invented by right wing conspiracy junkies
They desperately need to believe that someone is in charge
They cling to the hope that their adversary exists
The world is a scary place
When you don't know how anything works
Technology is magic
Gods bless politicians
Standing upon bibles they never read
Believing lasers from space will strike them where they stand

Profane Darkness
04:28
|
|||
Trembling ground beneath
Lightning flash in the sky
Bend to my will dark magic
Deep in the ground hear my voice
Beyond all understanding
Reanimate bone and flesh
Up through the wet soil
Rise the horrible dead
To think that you thought killing me
Would save you in the end
But there is no rest for the wicked
Upon the earth I walk again
My rage returned to the mortal world
My corpse risen again
The evil that’s following in my path
An army of the dead
I thirst for the blood of your family
I hunger for supple flesh
Demonic creature of nightmares
I need to kill anew
Unquenchable lust for chaos
I long to feel you die
In gushing spirts and snapping bones
Ecstasy of destruction

To Linger Here
05:11
|

Sleepless nights
Bleed into cold day
The pale moon
In frozen sky
Never
Is never
Forever

Wolven
03:40
|
|||
Born into the night, I see the moon through yellow eyes
Out in the dark, I hear my brethren calling
I can hear the prey, I can smell their fear, we move swiftly
Under the full moon, tonight we dine on flesh
To stalk my prey across the plains under an open sky
To hear the hunted howl in fear, to feel my victims die
I know no boundaries, I know no fear, to some I never die
I run with the pack, swift through the snow, after the hunt
I am the wolf
Lost inside the moon, transformation taking completely
So aware, my heightened senses overloaded
I can smell the silver in the hunter’s bullets
He is of no concern, he will die tonight

Children of the Night
03:56
|
|||
Can you hear them?
What sweet music they make
Unburdened lives of hunt and blood
Night creatures of the woods
And what this way comes?
Through such darkness desecrated
Smelling of fear
Smelling of young flesh
Run, run, just as fast as you can
Fast as your legs will take you
Run, run, run for your life
Deeper into the woods
Do not travel in depths of strange woods at night
There are fell things still alive and well deep in the shadows
And though the wolves howl and chill your blood
There are things so much worse
Blinded by darkness
Trembling with fear
You have fallen into the trap
Of something ancient and evil
Stumbling around
Panting out of breath
Your time is short
You don't even know it

Hollennacht
04:25
|

Wind howls through the trees
Lightning flash the sky
Awakened the host of darkness
Black forms creep from the ground
Demonic forces unleashed on this night
Come to ravage the earth
Lucifer roams the land this night
Come forth through unholy birth
Hooves pound through forests
The legion of the damned
Burning through all they touched
Horror in their wake
In the dead of night
The sky ablaze with fire
There is no mercy
Only blood and death
Abaddon
Belial
Apollyon
Beelzebub
The path of destruction
Wide as it is vast
Destroying any defense
They die like sheep
The lament of the wounded and dying
Fill the night air
Drowned only by the roar of the flames
Of the mass funeral pyre

Alter of Opinion
05:15
|
|||
Self proclaimed authority
Distance investigator
Damn who you wish
At the court of opinion
Convinced yourself so thoroughly
That what you suppose is right
Burn your victim on the alter
Convict them on your supposition
It's of no consequence
Whose life you ruin
Don't matter to you
As long as people think you're right
Prosecutor
Judge
Jury
Executioner
You make people pay for what you think you know
People you've never met, places you've never been
Sacrifice their lives just to satisfy your ego
Because you just have nothing better to do
You have no credentials
You're just a fool on the internet
But you believe yourself an authority
Because you've read things online
And you could amuse yourself
Any other way at all
But you feel this gives you a purpose
To butt in where you do not belong

Transcendent Lie
05:37
|
|||
On the winds of forever
Perceived promise beckons
To the end of experience
Into what lies beyond
Breaking boundaries only imagined
Out into the unknown
Consciousness expanding before shattering in the void
We keep pushing forward
Trying to see in the empty
The void is vast
Infinite cold and dark
To break beyond our physical limitations
Push too far, and you're never coming back
Weak souls
Minds filled with fear
Tiny perspective
Swallowed in darkness
