Tracks



01. Wrath

Restart
Ignite with brand new hate
Inhale the pain
Deny the blame
Beat them sore
This is not a metaphor
Black machinery with tons of steel breaking free
One man genocide
Legion in one heavily armed

My broken bones grown whole
Wounds turned to scars
And bleeding stopped
By divine wrath I am reborn

Withdraw behind your own lines
Pull back the men
The ones who went and slaved my queen
This is for them to see
They bleed
The same blood that painted my dreams
The blood of my enemies

My broken bones grown whole
Wounds turned to scars
And bleeding stopped
By divine wrath I am reborn

My broken bones grown whole
Wounds turned to scars
And bleeding stopped
By divine wrath I am reborn

02. Faithless

These ways of self deception
Underneath the living shield
We burn and erase
Our sins to be forgiven
The nature we deny
Now blind leads the blind

Believe in me
And my justified confession
Of the 7 deadly sins
I won't bleed from my palms
Or see the statues bleed
No faith left in me

This law without exception
Is written to the core
Words of violence feed the war
Countdown to the judgement
We have all a cause
And saviour from the fall

Believe in me
And my justified confession
Of the 7 deadly sins
I won't bleed from my palms
Or see the statues bleed
No faith left in me

03. Fear Me

The cross I built to clean myself
Drom the filth and be purified
Self-created burden to feel
Alive by suffering
Alive by suffering

Fear me
These hands breed only suffering

3 nails made of steel
12 inches each
They have to reach
Deep enough to carry the weight
Of the flesh I mean to break
The flesh I mean to break

Fear me
These hands breed only suffering
Feel free to disagree
Like the ones before you too will bleed

Fear me
These hands breed only suffering
Feel free to disagree
Like the ones before you too will bleed

04. Eternal

What is the price at the end of the world
To get to blame and reform
The grand declaration of the final war

Ignore the thought
Clearly deny it's not a lie
Gods never die
I am eternal

These days of self betrayal
Endless vault of failures within

Birth of a whole new black hole
The dying earth feeds new worlds
Superior race without a name to recognise
We have no name we are as one
With our blood we paint the sun

These days of self betrayal
Endless vault of failures within

What is the price at the end of the world
To get to blame and reform
The grand declaration of the final war

Ignore the thought
Clearly deny it's not a lie
Gods never die
I am eternal

05. Morning Sun

You can't carry me
I am too heavy inside
You don't have the strength
To get me untied

Beyond salvation
Don't really care at all
Unleash the tide
And let the waters fall

It broke me into little pieces
With edged razor sharp
Glass drawing my skin

Sharpened by my sins
Aim to rebuild
With self-hatred and guilt

Save me
Form the morning sun
Rewrite my fate
And let this life be undone

The ocean swallows me
Into the depths of ages
Darkness as old as the earth
Demons' hive
This crushing abyss
A bliss called life

At the edge of dawn
Forthcoming light will burn my eyes
And leave me blind

Solar flares torch my skin
And wind blows the ashes away

Save me
Form the morning sun
Rewrite my fate
And let this life be undone

06. Deadsong

The container of my soul was severed from my shell
At birth I was stigmatized by fires of hell
The hollow space inside is growing still
It's going for the kill
Beneath the blood red sky the song was born
The sky was bleeding when I sang her the deadsong

By my burning cradle
The lullaby of death
Was sung by dark angels
The daughters of flame

She slept under my wing
A cold embrace
Death's loyal servant now filled with pain
Forever haunted by her angelic face

By my burning cradle
The lullaby of death
Was sung by dark angels
The daughters of flame

These chains
Hold me down
Down on this frozen ground
In this world where death walks the earth
The sign of reaper given in birth

By my burning cradle
The lullaby of death
Was sung by dark angels
The daughters of flame

07. Guardian

Nevermore shall the choir of angels
Sing the song of despair with fear on their voice
Or the darkest creatures
Shed the blood of divine
Dark princess of mine
Spread your wings and fly

Flying high
Reaching to the sky
Flying high
Reaching to the sky so divine
My princess

Never again shall the fire of angels
Light of stars go out and darken the sky
Not the scythe of the reaper
Eeach the heart of divine

Dark princess of mine
Spread your wings and fly

Flying high
Reaching to the sky
Flying high
Reaching to the sky so divine
My princess

Flying high
Reaching to the sky
Flying high
Reaching to the sky so divine
My princess

08. Star Of Fire

World is a distant image with no colours
Each day a step towards the loss
That follows with a silent
Reminder of the grief
It's always there
Constant and severe

Memories of the failures
Will feed others to come
Hollow and numb
Death by choice instead of feeling alive
Life pushed aside

These days without the sun
Dying star of light
Burning darkness has begun
To raise flames of the end to come

These days without the sun
Dying star of light
Burning darkness has begun
To raise flames of the end to come

09. Reign Of Fire

Absence of light where only hollow words
Left to describe and measure the darkness
With crown made of bone and flesh of his own

Behold
Can you see the fractions in me?

Searching for someone to burn my wings
The reign of fire
Preaching of something greater and dark
The reign of fire

Destroy and rule
Dominate hellborn playground of feeble fools
And with blood
I am god

Behold
Can you see the fractions in me?

Searching for someone to burn my wings
The reign of fire
Preaching of something greater and dark
The reign of fire

10. ...

Feels like I was born with a black hole as a soul
Devouting all the light
Chaos engine inside

Feels like I wasn't meant to be
Nothing more than a stranger to all
Every loved one now and before
I will miss you all

I am waiting
In silence
The darkness
To come on my way
