01. XVI (Intro)

[Instrumental]

02. War-Path

We arise from the ashes below
To battle and crush the holy war
We'll spread our seeds to change history
A genocide delivered on your doorstep
They will perish in the everlasting flame
And we demand a new great victory

A new era has begun, the world is falling
And darkness triumphs, the emperor has made his call
And now the time has come for us to dread his warning
The terror will reign, death upon us all

Hell is here, no escape
Hell is here, Mother Nature's raped

Fueled by the hate we plow across the burning nation
With blood dripping from our hands only to keep the essentials from our past
The great army of the black horde is marching on
Through the remains of the slaughtered men

A new era has begun, the world is falling
And darkness triumphs, the emperor has made his call
And now the time has come for us to dread his warning
The terror will reign, death upon us all

Screams we hear in vain, of souls that turn into dust
Lives flushed down the drain, bodies left to rot

Nothing remains, only death

Earth a wound that never will heal
A new beginning will rise through the debris
Blood that was spilled, obliterated mankind
Life's lost
There's nothing left to claim

Terror will reign

A new era has begun, the world is falling
And darkness triumphs, the emperor has made his call
And now the time has come for us to dread his warning
The terror will reign, death upon us all

03. Scrutinized

They'll take your life away
They will push 'til you go insane
Raped, they steal your every heartbeat
Until you fall down dead
They monitor every step you take
And watching all your thoughts
Another small piece in the puzzle, no one cares,
'cause you're being controlled

They can see all mistakes that you'll make
How long will it take until you break
From authority's eyes, we're just a virus, just a frame
A world in technology we can't remain
We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed

Never can we live again
They have already set the rules
And the law is your only friend
Obey them and they'll erase you too
Sneaking up on your private life
Leads society to suicide
Now they move into our minds
You try to run but you can't hide

They can feel all the moves that you make
Stay away from the light
Is this the way that you and I have to live?
A world in technology - there's no escape

We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed

Forever struggle through our lifetime
We'll never tell the truth from lies
Swallowed by our fears we'll never retreat
The smell of freedom is finally cut

[Solo of Gary Holt]

We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed

We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed

04. Fearless

I don't care what you need.
I only do it to please me.
There's no excuse's from my point-of-view.
You're pulling me left and right.
I've had it up to here.
It's making me sick to see you alive.

Enough of conspiracy
'Cause you cannot win.
Like a bomb I release my anger.
I'll be peeling your skin.

I'm gonna walk away.
You wont be holding me back.
I'm not afraid of you
So just get out of my way.

I'll destroy your life
'cause you were pulling me down.
You reached the end of the road
So just get out of my way.

So just get out of my way.

Be my enemy
I'll turn your life into dust.
Take everything you've become.
Just go back where you've come from
And disappear from here.
Your life has taken a turn for the worse.

Enough of conspiracy
'cause you cannot win.
Like a bomb I release my anger.
I'll be peeling your skin.

Like a bomb I release my anger.
I'll be peeling your skin.

I'm gonna walk away.
You wont be holding me back.
I'm not afraid of you
So just get out of my way.

I'll destroy your life
'cause you were pulling me down.
You reached the end of the road
So just get out of my way.

I know your kind.
I've tasted before.
You spitting out all of your lies.
I push you up against the wall.

I'm gunna walk away.
You wont be holding me back.
I'm not afraid of you
So just get out of my way.

I'll destroy your life
'cause you were pulling me down.
You reached the end of the road
So just get out of my way.

05. Craving For Another Killing

You've got the will to kill 'couse you don't give a fuck
They're gonna lock you up and throw away the key
You've been plaing with your life, nothing's gonna stop you now.
You fuiled by the hate you've got inside
Terminate, you've got to sacrifice their flesh
Bleed for the Gods that live beyond
Stabbing work of art from their graves -- they will arise
All you need is hate when all th hope is gone

You've got the will to kill 'couse you don't give a fuck
They're gonna lock you up and throw away the key
You've been plaing with your life, nothing's gonna stop you now.
You fuiled by the hate you've got inside
Terminate, you've got to sacrifice their flesh
Bleed for the Gods that live beyond
Stabbing work of art from their graves -- they will arise
All you need is hate when all th hope is gone

Dead is your soul
Your hope is gone

Craving for another killing

And now their lives are falling
As you're forsacking them all
Their bodies weak and starving
Death will be the final call
The sacrifice you giving
And all the lives you have drained
In God they seek forgivness
It's all in vain

Their faith will be in vain

Craving for another killing
His needs remain the same
Feast upon the sacrifice
Muder keeps him sane

Their faith will be in vain

And now their lives are falling
As you're forsacking them all
Their bodies weak and starving
Death will be the final call
The sacrifice you giving
And all the lives you have drained
In God they seek forgivness
Their faith will be in vain

Your hope is gone

Craving for another killing
Craving for another killing
Craving for another killing
Craving!!!

And now their lives are falling
As you're forsacking them all
Their bodies weak and starving
Death will be the final call
The sacrifice you giving
And all the lives you have drained
In God they seek forgivness
Their faith will be in vain

And now their lives are falling
As you're forsacking them all
Their bodies weak and starving
Death will be the final call
The sacrifice you giving
And all the lives you have drained
In God they seek forgivness
Their faith will be in vain

06. Let The Knife Do The Talking

Are you blind to see me?
I think I know what you need.
I crucify you for your disbelief.
Buried lies that you kept
I pull it out of your flesh
And you will never sing again.

I am God.
I am the only one.
You need me.
Put your trust in me

Let the knife do the talking.
I'm gonna set you free.
Let the knife do the talking.
I wanna see you bleed.

I'll give you open-heart.
Give you pleasure.
And you will say no.
Just put your faith in me.
You seek salvation.
I am the one that you need.
I'll bring you? Your century?

I am God.
I am the only one.

Let the knife do the talking.
I'm gonna set you free.
Let the knife do the talking.
I wanna see you bleed.

So, I'm on a mission to heal the world for good.
And some don't just stand in my way.
Don't get in my way!
Kill. Kill. Kill. [repeat in background]
Let the knife do the talking.
Let the knife do the talking.

Let the knife do the talking.
I'm gonna set you free.
Let the knife do the talking.
I wanna see you bleed.

Let the knife do the talking.
Just believe in me.
Let the knife do the talking.
I wanna see you bleed.

07. A Thousand Lies

Come closer.
I've got what you need.
I crawl into your veins.
Satisfaction guaranteed.

A thousand smiles. A thousand lies.
I'll break you down you'll need more just to stay alive.
A thousand dead. A thousand highs.
Close your eyes and wait to die.
Your life was built on a thousand lies.

I don't know what you're looking for.
I don't know why you keep on crawling back for more.
Erase and rewind.
Your life is gone.
I can read you like an open book.
I'll steal your life like the lives you took.
I'll set you free from what you've become.

See the needle disappear into your skin.
Shoot it up and wait for the thrill.
Lay your body down and wait for the chill
And I'll whisper you lullaby that will kill.

A thousand smiles. A thousand lies.
I'll break you down you'll need more just to stay alive.
A thousand dead. A thousand highs.
Close your eyes and wait to die.
Your life was built on a thousand lies.

Throw away everything you've got
For a rush you cannot stop.
Injecting the will, the will to be free.

See the needle disappear into your skin.
Shoot it up and wait for the thrill.
Lay your body down and wait for the chill
And I'll whisper you lullaby that will kill.

08. Incised Before I've Ceased

I'm wide awake but I don't feel alive
Drain my blood and wait for me to die
Cut me open, knives slashing my flesh
Black empty eyes that drills holes in my spine
They remove my organs, limb by limb
Drink my blood, my heart will stop to beat
Where am I, what do they want from me?
From the blade's work I'm done

Take me away from this hell
No matter how much I'm screaming
They won't stop cutting me
I don't need this surgery

I don't wanna live, I don't wanna be
Incised before I've ceased
I don't wanna feel, pull the plug on me
Incised before I've ceased

They pulled me up, there's nothing left of me
Fold me up 'cause I'm dead
Turn off the life support you don't need me no more
I am shredded
Don't you dare put me back
I'm not your human surgical experiment
Just turn me off, why can't you stop?
Your work is done
Gather my flesh

Take me away from this hell
I don't need this surgery

I don't wanna live, I don't wanna be
Incised before I've ceased
I don't wanna feel, pull the plug on me
Incised before I've ceased
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna be
Incised before I've ceased
I don't wanna feel, pull the plug on me
Incised before I've ceased

I don't wanna live, I don't wanna be
Incised before I've ceased
I don't wanna feel, pull the plug on me
Incised before I've ceased

09. Blooddrenched

Let me take you to a quiet place
Where I can drain you in peace
I will teach you a new meaning of fear
It sets me free to hear you scream
I will spray you full with my holy seed
I'm gonna baptize you with my warm cum
I've been waiting for this moment my whole life
When you become my chainsaw-butchered whore

You're my whore

Violated, blood drenched, naked

I cannot hide my feelings, my feelings tell me more
A sickness I've been given, a sickness that's so pure
Come here and let me taste you,
Your blood that tastes so sweet
Reach out and seek forgiveness
You're my chainsaw-butchered whore

[Solo - Tgtgren]

Don't you try to run and hide from me
You cannot escape, I won't let you escape from me
You're my trophy and I'll never let you go
I need you alive 'cause I wanna watch you die

Violated, blood drenched, naked

I cannot hide my feelings, my feelings tell me more
A sickness I've been given, a sickness that's so pure
Come here and let me taste you,
Your blood that tastes so sweet
Reach out and seek forgiveness
You're my chainsaw-butchered whore

Look in my eyes and watch the chain as the engines going berserk
A gush of blood that sprays my face as the blade is breaking your skin
Screams are freezing, you're chopped into pieces - nothing is left of your limbs
A life may be lost as I tear you apart but at least you're out of your misery

Fear me, I'm coming for you
Fear me, I'm coming for your flesh
Fear me, I'm coming for you
Fear me, I'm coming for your flesh

Let me take you to a quiet place
Where I can drain you in peace
I will teach you a new meaning of fear
It sets me free to hear you scream
I will spray you full with my holy seed
I'm gonna baptize you with my warm cum
I've been waiting for this moment my whole life
When you become my chainsaw-butchered whore

I cannot hide my feelings, my feelings tell me more
A sickness I've been given, a sickness that's so pure
Come here and let me taste you,
Your blood that tastes so sweet
Reach out and seek forgiveness
You're my chainsaw-butchered whore

I cannot hide my feelings, my feelings tell me more
A sickness I've been given, a sickness that's so pure
Come here and let me taste you,
Your blood that tastes so sweet
Reach out and seek forgiveness
You're my chainsaw-butchered whore

10. Compulsive Psychosis

I am still on the loose, with vengeance of hate
Thirsty for your blood
They have examined my brain but I'm still insane
Nothing can cure my hunger for your flesh

I see your face
You're getting pale

I do whatever I please, I'll bring you down to your knees
I'm in it for my own sacrifice
I am God, I am overloaded, another soul is stolen
My body is boiling, uncontrolled

I stab you dry
And watch you die

I hear the dead
It's calling my name, they say I am the one to be blamed
I see the dead
It tortures my soul, I only did what I was told

Stabbing all my enemies, let them fuckers bleed
Hang 'em high from the trees, feed 'em full with energy

Screams in agony, my mind is turning black
There's no way you can stop me now
You're a bleeder, a cheater, a dead man receiver
I am in control of your life
I hear the dead
It's calling my name, they say I am the one to be blamed
I see the dead
It tortures my soul, I only did what I was told

I hear the dead
It's calling my name, they say I am the one to be blamed
I see the dead
It tortures my soul, I only did what I was told

11. Living To Die

A cocoon binds my skin, it wants to keep me alive
I am the great messiah of the fallen paradise
Destroyed by my own creations, I cannot cope with life
The truth you know so well- it's just a big lie

You live to fear,

You lay yourself to rest
Programmed to crawl- it's just a battle with hell
We are the prey, cannot break this spell

We are the signs that caged in the dirt
We are the plague spreading through the world
We are the disease- the virus eating away
We are no one, we're just living to die

We're just a lie,

We're just a fake
I can't wait 'til I'm finally dead
Erase my numbers and hope to never return again
Computerized

We are all neutralized in a world
That's controlled by machines

You live to hate,

'til someone presses delete
The things we go- it's just a battle in hell
We are the dirt- can I break these chains?

We are the signs that caged in the dirt
We are the plague spreading through the world
We are the disease- the virus eating away
We are no one, we're just living to die

12. Watch Out

It's saying you my thing and now your... is full 'cause you the one in your way
It's time to move on, I don't have time for you
You just moving yourself

You better watch out!
It shows all your place,
You better watch out!
I've seen it before, you laughing / nothing my back

You lie it to say, no one believing you, including yourself
Who are you, what do you want?
You know, you talk too much, it's burning all in your tongue

You better watch out!
It shows all your place,
You better watch out!
I've seen it before, you laughing / nothing my back

You better watch out!
It shows all your place,
You better watch out!
I've seen it before, you laughing / nothing my back

You better watch out!

You better watch out!
