1.	God of the Bloody Tongue 05:24	lyrics	buy track
The Black Pharaoh The Black Wind The Bloated Woman The Crawling Mist The Dweller in Darkness The Faceless God The Floating Horror The Haunter of the Dark Primeval messenger of chaos Wanderer of times Wearer of faces Twisting the minds of men Madness his pleasure Insanity his delight Face Eater Father of All Bats Dark Wing Sand Bat Fly-The-Light The Howler in the Dark The God of a Thousand Forms
2.	Cursed by the Dark God 03:56	lyrics	buy track
Bastard tongues bewitching Under moonless night in Sodom Breathing curses so exquisite They excite the blood of demons In the mountains deep of forgotten realms Black magic seduces the ether And from the howls from distant woods Dark creatures hunt for flesh Can you hear the calling? Out there in the wild Ancient magics stir And live again False the minds of the followers Deep the secrets broken Screaming in the darkness In the grip of the yellow king Madness reigns in blood Slaughtering themselves At the will of an elder god Offering their suffering The balance forever broken Bells echo in distant towers The winds of war are here A pungent evil descending Wickedness thy world The foolishness of mortal men Puppet strings now cut Frail frames used up
3.	Betrayal of the Deep Ones 04:32	lyrics	buy track
Aggression architecture We build for our conflict Visiting violent endings On wherever we see fit We believe in our power We think we are on top of the world But we’re just puppets For our masters deep under the oceans We’ve turned on our masters Destroying the oceans Their wrath is coming soon They created us to guard them And we have failed And now their wrath will destroy us Hybrid apes to guard the surface From invaders from the stars But we poisoned their waters We have killed so many Our usefulness is gone Now just weapons malfunctioning And they will wipe us out And build on top of our ashes
4.	The Third Great War 05:41	lyrics	buy track
There’s blood in your fear Paranoid hysteria, panic run rampant Flashpoint of conflicts The beginning of the end Believed your whole life In the third great war Brainwashed by the church To believe Armageddon would come The hate demands Blood in the streets The holy war Always promised Your gods demand it The destruction of the old There is no true redemption Only death by fire and metal The lie of rebirth Keeps the chosen zealous As they rush to execute The will of their silent gods Rush to your doom Bring yourself to the slaughter Puppets of fools Mindless drooling minions The fuck toys of gods Imagined thousands of years ago Suffer and die for your imaginary masters
5.	Hand of Hell 04:24	lyrics	buy track
The breaking of the ancient seals Where angels dare not go Deep beneath the throne of Leviathan In the farthest depths of darkness The flesh consumed by black smoke Through the obsidian eyes of the damned Bleed rivers of blood across creation To the laughter of sickened gods Blasphemous hymns flow from the mouths of children The war in heaven consuming itself in fire Primeval beings walk upon the earth again The fabric of order ripped apart from the inside I am the vessel of darkness I am the willing disciple of doom I will become so much more than I am alone I become the hand of hell In the wake of an absent god The horseman ride again Death rides the earth on a pale horse War, famine and plague bringing the end of days
6.	Bred for War 06:50	lyrics	buy track
War machines churn out the instruments of death Beating the rhythm of orchestrated destruction The zealous and the powerful, clashing of wills Titanic powers at the play of egos Rally the masses to believe what they must So they’ll ride out in combat and burn each other to dust Thinly veiled xenophobic slaughter it’s become Opposition equals threat, die where you stand Bred to be Marched off to war Serve America Your god now Bred to be Only good for war Praise America Your god now Believe in the rhetoric and mottos of the rich Convince yourself you can rise above and be just like them Just serve your country and you can have your fill They determine your success based on the numbers you kill From high atop their mountaintop, looking down in greed The corporations you serve don’t care how much you bleed So fight for your life for them, fight til your death Keep the powerful where they are until your dying breath
7.	Slave Nation 06:45	lyrics	buy track
Grinding through the rough earth Ploughing on toward oblivion Under the whip of the masters Trudge on into the darkness Thunder crashing in your mind Your eyes too weak for the light A mole race of slaves You just live to serve Wish for some conspiracy to justify The global events that you do not understand When really at the top it’s just greedy bloated fools Fighting to control as much as they can steal The system is broken Your god is a lie Foundations made of quicksand The heaven you hoped Was never there at all Working your whole life for nothing You cannot deal with the dissonance of fact As it goes against your deepest beliefs Cling to that which you pray is the real truth Better to deceive yourself then change your mind
8.	Total Brutality 02:24	lyrics	buy track
Faceless enemy drives the war machine From kill to kill, cold reality Point of contact Death is now at hand One more body Blood on conquered land Suffer unto me You are mine Burn, torture, mame, kill Pain divine Enlist to serve the common good Forced to do things you never thought you would Point of contact Death is now at hand Just one more body Blood on conquered land Suffer unto me You are mine Burn, torture, mame, kill Pain divine No passive role You do as you must The war takes it's toll The blood feeds your lust Now take a look at what you are Tool of politicians watching from afar Life of regrets now in the past Knowing rattling breath in chest Now will be your last Suffer unto me You are mine Burn, torture, mame, kill Pain divine
9.	Gray Horizon 2020 03:54	lyrics	buy track
Do you hear whispers in the darkness? Do you feel the moorings of reality come unhinged? Can you feel the weight pushing you down? Do the days stretch on in a never-ending struggle? I walk this barren land forever Trudging through the ash of things gone I stare into in the gray horizon Turn away in fear, frightened of the future Does no rest come when you most need it? Do you feel the acid rise deep within your being? Do you know the blinding fire of wrath? Do you live constantly haunted?
