Tracks



01. Satan Is Dead

Just a few letters from the Earth
Corporate policies, corrupt politics
Suckle the hate from birth
Transparent fools with coloured views

No god will take a side in this anthill war
Got plenty of drones eager to take the fall

I believe that the Satan is dead
And we race to take his place
We have seen that the Satan is dead
Rest in peace, we got your disease

Put up a fence for me to look over
The sheep are evil with the grass more green
Got to have a barbecue
I want my piece, the smoke and the grease

No god will take a side in this anthill war
Puppet at the front goes down, they put one more

I believe that the Satan is dead
And we race to take his place
We have seen that the Satan is dead
Rest in peace, we got your disease

The empty throne awaits in hell, it won't be long
'Til one will rise to claim the horns for one more head
And we will feel no slightest change it always hurts to burn
But the business still stays cool

I believe that the Satan is dead
And we race to take his place
We have seen that the Satan is dead
Rest in peace, we got your disease
I believe that the Satan is dead
And we race to take his place
We have seen that the Satan is dead
Rest in peace, we got your disease

The Satan, the Satan, the Satan
The Satan is dead!

02. Hell Knows

You may find me lying on some desert road
My eyes wide open to the universe
And what lies there, is just something I left behind
And I move on, gone, but where?

Only hell knows!
Only hell knows me!
Only hell knows!
Only hell knows me!

You may find me laughing in a haunted house
Drawing strange runes to the air and dust
And here inside of me there's a long forgotten key
To understand what's there, but now...

Only hell knows!
Only hell knows me!
Only hell knows!
Only hell knows me!
The hell knows me!

Woah, yeah!
Hell knows!

You may find me crying in the closet of your room
What ghosts know only is how to come back
My prison will claim me again, and again!
And take me, don't know where...

Only hell knows!
Only hell knows me!
Only hell knows!
Only hell knows me!

03. Rise!

Safety of the cages and the butcher's love
They've held us down for thousands of years
We are the despised, the cursed and the scum
Imprisoned by their rules and their fears

They say we're evil, and the flames will make us well
But the cure has made us sick, can they tell?

And now we rise! Forevermore from the grief
The lost! The damned!
The dead will rise for still some more
Into their dreams
The tribes of hell!
The dead will rise forevermore into their worth
The lost! The damned!
The dead will rise on n' on, reborn
Yeah!

Turn a rock, you'll find us, the chains go to the deep
We've become the wretched images of ourselves
Our ways were mended so that we broke down
But the machinations were left for us to pay

They say we're evil, and the flames will make us well!
But no one should one made to suffer eternity in hell

And now we rise forevermore from our grief
The lost! The damned!
The dead will rise for still some more
Into their dreams
The tribes of hell!
The dead will rise forevermore into their worth!
The lost! The damned!
The dead will rise on n' on, reborn

Find your scream! (The dead will rise!)
Use your scream! (The dead will rise!)
Find your scream! (The dead will rise!)
Use your scream! (The dead will rise!)

Rise forevermore from our dream
Rise for still some more
Into the dreams
Rise forevermore
Now we rise on an' on

And now we rise forevermore from our grief
The lost! The damned!
The dead will rise for still some more
Into their dreams
The tribes of hell!
The dead will rise forevermore into their worth!
The lost! The damned!
The dead will rise on n' on, reborn

The dead will rise!

04. The Pilot Of All Dreams

Assume a shape, take a wing
An alien lover, superconducting
On every moon and star,
I've gone too far

I close my eyes, and I'm up there
In the black skies and everywhere
Bring ya sights to raise your hair

The pilot of all dreams

I've seen the wonders of the molten flesh
The "Thing" and the "Fly" through "Predator's" eye
At every quantum leap
The terrors also creep

I close my eyes, and I'm up there
In the black skies and everywhere
Bring ya sights to raise your hair

The pilot of all dreams

Time will take you to your grave, but still you remain
The sum of what you were. Particles in flow
Onward to avoid they go. Never free of pain
The privilege of existence never lets you go

I close my eyes, and I'm up there
In the black skies and everywhere
Bring ya sights to raise your hair

The pilot of all dreams

05. Magic And Technology

It's how we think and how we move
And see our bodies changed
The vibrant youth and endless love can be arranged
Masters of the air and sea drunk with the flashlights
At the gates of hell on the red carpet we spend our nights

We can't tell the difference,
We've lost our destiny
We can't tell the difference
Between magic and technology

Seduces of the city left me drained and with infection
The angels must yield or burn by the rules of rejection
The lords in their highest spires, they will have to fall
This One rises beneath them. Hungrier than all

We can't tell the difference,
We've lost our destiny
We can't tell the difference
Between magic and technology

The lords in their mighty spires had better watch their feed
The tide rises beneath them, the horde needs to eat

We can't tell the difference,
We've lost our destiny
We can't tell the difference
Between magic and technology
We can't tell...

06. Calling Down The Rain

They've left me broken
But I never give up my dreams
The tears are spoken only in screams
The gods have left me in this world of unbelief
They gave me this live, then hung me as a thief

Calling down the rain
To crumble the earth away
Calling down the rain
I will be back today

I'll be back today

They promised me wonders, I was dead in the ditch
They gave me magic, and burned me as a witch

Calling down the rain
I have thirsted in my grave
Calling down the rain
To crumble the earth away
Calling down the rain
The rust will eat through my chains
Calling down the rain
I will be back today
I'll be back today!

The webs of deceit are as real
As the mind that conjures them
I walk under the clouds
Black as grief, red as mayhem

Calling down the rain
I have thirsted in my grave
Calling down the rain
To crumble the earth away
Calling down the rain
The rust will eat through my chains
Calling down the rain
I will be back today
To blow you away!

Calling down the rain

07. Caught In The Deadlights

They are daisies afraid of rain
Hiding from the touches that bring no pain
Frozen in the warmth of all this life
Wilting, every ray of sun's a knife

Caught in the deadlights
Mesmerized by the deadlights

We shine on, but the darkness lies within
Growing underneath the broken skin
Raging battle is in our veins
Feed on, bleed on, it all becomes the same

Caught in the deadlights
Mesmerized by the deadlights

Draw breath or don't, it's death that won't
Be denied of it's final grip around your throat
We're here and now, near gone anyhow
The blood must sing
As long as it flows around

Right on! Straight into the fray
Right on! Do whatever you may
Right on! Your bones won't hold the meat
Right on! Suffer your treat!

Caught in the deadlights
Mesmerized by the deadlights
Caught in the deadlights
Head high we fly with the deadlights

08. I Walk Forever

Did I leave in time for the words to rhyme
For her heart to wait ever longing?
I am not the one, neither just for one
I am made of hopes left unfulfilled

I walk forever
'Til my road winds up into the sky
Never needed to learn how to fly
I walk forever
'Til my left is hazed into the right
Getting lost in the shadows of white

Drawing breath somewhere from the strands of her hair
I am shaken by the pain of freedom
When the nights grow still, she will climb this hill
Silence only on the road beyond

I walk forever
'Til my road winds up into the sky
Never needed to learn how to fly
I walk forever
'Til my left is hazed into the right
Getting lost in the shadows of white

Fading to the grey, still dressed in white
Tears turn into diamonds by the moonlight

Dreams won't fade away

I walk forever
'Til my road winds up into the sky
Never needed to learn how to fly
I walk forever
'Til my left is hazed into the right
Getting lost in the shadows of white

09. Sleep In The Dark

Hear this Holy word, let it burn the world
Slaves must be abused, put to use, blackened blues
Bloodsucker charisma, in thrall we're one and all
Worthless, let 'em drown, take control, crush 'em down

The light that bleeds out of the
Wrists of the madmen makes me
See I can only trust the dark
The light that's bleeding out of
They're eyes will burn us with their mark
I cannot sleep but in the dark

Husks of holy hate want you to dehydrate
Madness they've followed through now hollows you
Brought into battlefield angels disintegrate
Sent in this place that'll crush you,
Maim you, break you, you too

The light that bleeds out of the
Wrists of the madmen makes me
See I can only trust the dark
The light that's bleeding out of
Their eyes will burn us with their mark
I cannot sleep but in the dark

Walk the righteous road road and never stray
There's only circles of hell to pay
Be sure to send down
Many before you and you'll be okay

The light that bleeds out of the
Wrists of the madmen makes me
See I can only trust the dark
The light that's bleeding out of
They're eyes will burn us with their mark.
I cannot sleep but in the dark

10. Gone

You're staring through the windows of my eyes
But the curtains are closed
Your whisper's drowned under voices in my head

And I can't care 'cause
I am gone
I've sailed my dreams to Babylon
Save your dreams 'cause
I am gone

What comes unseen still becomes too real
Some wounds don't need to heal
All that's unreal just feels better to me

And now I'm safe 'cause
I am gone!
I've sailed my dreams to Babylon!
Save your dreams 'cause
I am gone!
I've sailed my dreams to Babylon!
Save your dreams 'cause
I am gone

The words don't make it good
The pills never made me see
If there would be a better way for me to be
The towers of my nightmares, the city of my dreams
I'm drawn to you with love and loathing
This is my home and here I'll stay, now and forever

11. End Of Everything

Read my mind, but you don't hear anything
Hear my word, but you don't see anything
See my heart, but you don't feel anything
Feel my wounds, but you can't heal anything

Pieces of our sundering
Here comes end of everything

Say your name, but I can't hear anything
Raise your face, but I can't see anything
Hand upon my pulse, but I can't feel anything
Bleed two in one flow, and I can't heal anything

Pieces of our sundering
Here comes our end of everything
It's the end of everything
