2000 years ago
Someone died He is known to man as the son of a god What kind of father lets his son die? His time will come; an eye for an eye Look at a history of 2000 years There's no joy left; there are only tears And as time went on Wars and hunger; The inheritance of his son And soon we'll join him in the battle against you There's only one thing left to do God cries, blood on his hands and tears in his eyes Godforsaken dreams, the failure and the shame Let's goon the other side, let us cross the Styx Not out of curiosity, we want revenge When we meet our maker We'll ask him why And we stab him in the back Just as he did to us Now we're on the other side We know what we came for Blood for blood is the rule Our judgement has come 2000 years ago Someone died God cries, blood on his hands and tears in this eyes Godforsaken dreams, the failure and the shame 2000 years ago Someone cried 02. It Awaits Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
You're devastated by the fear of a horrible death
Constantly anticipating on your last breath Thinking about the many times you've already died Nothing I could do and you know I've tried You know what awaits You know that it awaits There you lie on your own rack God gave you a nightmare, so you gave one back The pleasures and the pains that were shown to you You have enjoyed them and you know what to do You know what awaits You know that it awaits Get out of your hell I try to reach you and get you out of that hell But you decide to end it, all by yourself Will you have peace of mind, or will yon dwell You know what awaits You know that it awaits And now it's over You are gone and you won't come back I feel that you are freed from this ungodly pain The memories are there and they will remain You know what awaits You know that it awaits 03. My Beloved Enemy Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
I have to get out of this godforsaken dream
And it's time to see my beloved enemy Your loved ones are the ones that stab you in the back Among the family is the Judas Betrayal and apostasy are the things That come your way When greed overrules the blood And now that I see the real you and the real me Your share is my thorn, a jackal is born Your loved ones are the ones that stab you in the back Among the family is the Judas Betrayal and apostasy are the things That come your way When greed overrules the blood What turns people into vultures? Is it greed or is it in the heart? My beloved enemy Close enough to hit me where it hurts When will you know that you cannot betray me Because the blood tells me to punish my enemy Your loved ones are the ones that stab you in the back Among the family is the Judas Pain and misery will come their way When vengeance overrules the sense You have to get out of your godforsaken dream And it's time to see your beloved enemy What turns people into vultures? Is it greed or is it in the heart? My beloved enemy Close enough to hit me where it hurts 04. Died Yesterday Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
I can't control my bloodlust anymore
There's no way back for me After all these years of pain and oppression My eyes are now to see The maggot that you are and I'll crush you I'll crush your cenotaph My sympathy is gone My conscience passed away It died yesterday For years you squeezed the hatred out of me Until it consumed me And when the gates to my soul opened up There was nothing but darkness So I can't control my bloodlust no more There's no way back for you After all these years of pain and oppression My eyes are now to see My sympathy is gone My conscience passed away It died yesterday I'd like to see you beg I'd like to see you suffer But you died yesterday You always had me beg You always had me suffer The torment lies fresh in my memory The scars will never heal So you had to suffer the ultimate anger That tore your soul apart And I licked the fresh-spilled blood of my blade The work is done My sympathy is gone My conscience passed away It died yesterday 05. Cut-Throat Urges Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
Not so long ago, on a cold December day
You let my father die in solitude and pain Once he was your son, and baptised in your name If this is now you treat him, then violence is my way Cut-throat urges I need to spill some holy blood Beautiful words, but hollow promises The goodness of god is a fucking joke Get out of your heavenly palace And show your real face How can people believe in this shit How can they be so naive Not so long ago, on a cold December day You took all hope in my life away Once I had respect, and hallowed was your name If this is how you treat me, then violence is my way 06. Slaughtered In Sodom Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
The masses are going to battle
And as we learn from history now They'll all die tor nothing and nobody even cares Slaughtered in Sodom Living your life on a battlefield Where no one knows your name Your head blown off by a thousand guns To me it makes no sense Rage burning inside, and sometimes it explodes Now I got blood on my hands, I kill tor no reason at all Blood is my fuel, violence an urge and not a goal In my own private Sodom, the bloodshed never ends Two minutes to midnight, everything will go fast You'll never know what hit you, But this breath will be your last God and Satan are no opposites They're one inside your mind You can worship both or none It doesn't change who you are Because Sodom is a place far away in your mind Where pleasure and pain are united Sodom is here Take my hand and fly away To the dark realms of ignorance There's no way you can deny That you've been ignorant too In worshipping something that only exists In your own mind 07. Frozen Soul Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
A soul made of ice
And the invention of fire Didn't melt my heart It got even colder My soul remains frozen As it has been for a thousand years No feelings at all You know I got no feelings at all Frozen soul At the beginning of time I was born Into a family of conquerors Destined to do death Stone-cold obsession For the destruction of life You know that I'm the son of man You made me to what I am The fear of me is a product of your past Forever, that's how long I'll last No feelings at all You know I got no feelings at all Frozen soul I exist- By the grace of your coldness By the grace of a breed of rats By the grace of a god who failed By the grace of the one you hail You know that I'm the son of man You made me to what I am The fear of me is a product of your past Forever, that's how long I'll last A soul made of ice And the invention of fire Didn't melt my heart I got even colder No feelings at all You know I got no feelings at all Frozen soul 08. Fear My Greed Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
I have this terrible urge
The need to take what is yours A vulture circling in the sky Preying upon the weak Run away - you're my prey, fear my greed The weaker you are the stronger I get I feast upon your helplessness Show no mercy and have compassion Because this is your own fault Remember who started this? Don't be afraid to die Run away - You're my prey, fear my greed My greed is here to stay It will haunt you till the end of days What do you think that will happen now Don't expect me to let go My teeth in your neck, I'll suck the life out of you Just as you tried to do to me Don't be afraid to die Preying upon your weakness Like a vulture in the sky The need to take what is yours There's no way back for me My greed is here to stay It will haunt you till the end of days Run away - You're my prey, fear my greed 09. The Blood I Spilled Music by Theo Loomans & Bob Bagchus Lyrics by Theo Loomans
Coming home after the war
All that's left is a prisoner of two worlds The past is red of all the blood I spilled The future's black because there is no hope Nothing is sacred to me I want you, father, to fall on your knees In the desert far away My slaughtered innocence left to decay Recollections of battles without end And the lives I took with my bare hands Nothing is sacred to me I want you, father, to fall on your knees So I walked into that church And that's when I killed him The blood I spilled just yesterday As if that pleasure had never been away Stabbing the fucking life out of him I learned the trade, I always win Nothing is sacred to me I want you, father, to fall on your knees The blood I spilled just yesterday As it that pleasure had never been away |
