I'm the almighty, the king of the kills
Armageddon's father I'm lurking in darkness, ready to take Your body and your soul The Reaper, the Reaper I'm coming to get you The Reaper, the Reaper Prepare to die! Don't try to escape, I'm hunting you down Holding you tight in my grip Kissing the steel, the flash of my blade Gleaming in your stare The Reaper, the Reaper I'm coming to get you The Reaper, the Reaper I'm the almighty, the king of the kills Armageddon's father Kissing the steel, the flash of my blade Gleaming in your stare The Reaper, the Reaper I'm coming to get you The Reaper, the Reaper The Reaper, the Reaper I'm coming to get you The Reaper, the Reaper 02. Witchery
The moon is full tonight
We gather round the flame The candles burn so bright We start to chant thy name Satana The circle starts to glow Hear the spirits scream A demon from below Black - with eyes that gleam Witchery - in the misty candle light An incantation of the dark Witching hour! A vibration fills the air We fall into a trance We sense someone's here Who have we conjured this time Satana Witchery - in the misty candle light An incantation of the dark Witching hour! Witchery 03. Midnight At The Graveyard
We've been diggin' this grave for hours n' hours
Hiding ourselves from the light Open this casket to feed the beast A sacrifice done in the night Howling wolves at a brightful moon A shadow flies across the sky Whispering voices chant an eerie tune "Hurry up and dig" you fool A resurrection in the dead of night The secret earthing of the dead is right Midnight at the graveyard Our footsteps hammer on the coffin lid Gently we both clear up the dirt A foul scent of death, the stench of rotten flesh Was that a moan from beneath that I heard? A resurrection in the dead of night The secret earthing of the dead is right Midnight at the graveyard Rise from the grave! The rain beats down but now the time has come We place the corpse down on the ground Preparing the rite, but I feel something is wrong Now the body has opened its eyes A resurrection in the dead of night The secret earthing of the dead is right Midnight at the graveyard Midnight at the graveyard 04. The Hangman
Let me take you to the promised land
I will lead you there by the hand Feel the cold that pours out from my soul (Where) I will take you - you will need no more Place your trust and only faith in me I'll step in and I will set you free I'm the hated, I'm the so-called mean But I don't judge - you are indifferent to me Sleep a lifetime - Die an eternity Deathrider in the sky Place your trust and only faith in me I'll step in and I will set you free I'm the hated, I'm the so-called mean But I don't judge - you are indifferent to me 05. Awaiting The Exorcist
Bring the infant who speaks in tongues
An exorcism shall soon be done Banish the evil that rules this child I hope the priest will hurry to come We'll provoke the demons of sin Awaiting the exorcist Cast out this presence within We tie her down for the sake of her own Or she will injure herself to her death Unaware of what the future will bring The demon smiles and starts to scream We'll provoke the demons of sin Awaiting the exorcist Cast out this presence within We'll provoke the demons of sin Awaiting the exorcist Cast out this presence within Awaiting the exorcist We'll provoke the demons of sin Awaiting the exorcist Cast out this presence within 06. All Evil
Hell storms hard
Rampant evil cloud the skies Creatures sing As they praise the unborn child Famine and plague Race throughout the world on wings of damnation There's a fire in the sky Behold the riders of the night With fear we whisper their names War and death - famine and plague Prophecies Fulfilled with cold precision Seas of blood Predict mankind's extinction War and death Unleash the terror with divine intervention There's a fire in the sky Behold the riders of the night With fear we whisper their names War and death - famine and plague There's a fire in the sky Behold the riders of the night With fear we whisper their names War and death - famine and plague 07. House Of Raining Blood
Down by the cemetery
Lies a house where evil roams free The rooms are silent, but you better beware A thousand souls have perished in there As you turn to stone And you lose your head As he takes your soul The walls turn red - bloodshed The smell of brimstone and the clanging of chains (the) Hooks into flesh - to tear and to maim (a) Blood shower gush - the walls turn red This ritual doesn't end just 'cause the body is dead As you turn to stone And you lose your head As he takes your soul The walls turn red - bloodshed The house is empty, another night has gone A deathlike silence - the deed is done The doors are open - "please step inside" An hour remains to the rising of the bloodtide As you turn to stone And you lose your head As he takes your soul The walls turn red - bloodshed 08. Into Purgatory
Chased by the hellhounds, the scavengers of death
This ain't no nightmare, it's the afterlife unblessed The winds of redemption, blow hard on the plains Hell's burning landscape, lays vast, in flames Engulfed in reeking pain, repent The bottomless pit of hell's domain A swarming mass of bodies slain I feel the flames so near I welcome the pain that rages here I have nothing to fear Steaming red hot pistons, hell's machine at work Rusted iron sceptres, impaled the thousands burn Dark and dead but glowing, the army of the damned Torment the fallen mortals, from this day to the end Engulfed in reeking pain, repent The bottomless pit of hell's domain A swarming mass of bodies slain I feel the flames so near I welcome the pain that rages here I have nothing to fear Chased by the hellhounds, hell's machine at work This ain't no nightmare, impaled the thousands burn The winds of redemption, the army of the damned Hell's burning landscape, from this day to the end 09. Born In The Night
[Instrumental]
10. Restless & Dead
Howling moon and a rapid nightfall
Cold hard death and chanting spell For the dead to be risen from their deep slumber The grave shall be open to free who's under We're the restless - and the Dead Dead people walking thru the sanctuary A scream comes from one of the graves still buried The light in the window shows the priest has heard us All too late for the tombs are now open and empty We're the restless - and the Dead Hunger - for the flesh of the people who are still alive Open grave - the Dead will rise Rise! We're the restless - and the Dead 11. The Howling
Lone wolfs howl - this fullmoons night
The sound is faint but clear Noone wonders - all of us know why People have dissapeared The townsmen gather those who dare Torches are lit and set aflare They must find this ghastly being Somesay a werewolf has been seen Sound out the call The hunt is tonight Let loose the dogs To chase this back to Hell! A hundred men - they storm the hills The dogs have found a lead A shadow moves, part man - part wolf In the distance he starts to flee They must find this ghastly being Somesay a werewolf has been seen Sound out the call The hunt is tonight Let loose the dogs To chase this back to... Hell! Drive the stake - right thru the heart He must never, to rise again Silvercoins - placed in the mouth Sets the werewolfs corpse to flames |
