01. The Final Silence

Music by Fredrik Lindgren/Johnny Hedlund
Lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
No more shall we pray for peace
Never ever ask them why
No more shall we stop their visions
Of selfdestructing genocide
Dogs on leads march to war
Go ahead end it all...

Blow up the world
The final silence
Blow up the world
I don't give a damn!

Screams of terror, panic spreads
Bombs are raining from the sky
Bodies burning, all is dead
There's no place left to hide
Dogs on leads march to war
Go ahead end it all...

Blow up the world
The final silence
Blow up the world
I don't give a damn!

(A voice was heard from the battle field)

"Couldn't care less for a last goodbye
For as I die, so do all my enemies
There's no tomorrow, and no more today
So let us all fade away..."

Upon this ball of dirt we lived
Darkened clouds now to dwell
Wasted years of man's creation
The final silence now can tell
Dogs on leads march to war
Go ahead end it all...

Blow up the world
The final silence
Blow up the world
I don't give a damn!

02. The Immortals

Music & lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
Rise - my armies - with power - from Hell - we march...

When all their power's gone and nothing's left but shame
We are the evil ones, a pestilence they say
We tear their souls apart by just being what we are
...And to forever be the ones to blame

There's nothing here for us in their world of love and trust
We vomit in their eyes and face them with disgust
We are the tyrants of the darkness as they say
...And we will never obey

So rise - my armies - with power - from Hell - we march...

We leave your god behind, he's shaking with fright
See the hatred in our eyes shining so bright
Possessed by Hell itself we stand up to charge
...And rise from the flames

This is the time for vengeance, now their end is near
We strike with hateful power, we have no fear
We are the immortals of a never ending race
...And we shall fight 'til the end

Now the time has come
For all the fools to pray
Come on, face the slayer
Now's your time to pay

So rise - immortals - with power - and might - we slay...

03. A Life Beyond

Music by Fredrik Lindgren
Lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
A life beyond reality, a must to reach the only way out
So distant to this rotten world and I know - it isn't for me
I don't care of what they say, I am myself and live my own way
Like rats they run in life's eternal wheel - but they'll never
get me

Hear the silent whispers, all the talking heads and see all
their fake smiles
Protected by a wall of laws they hide - they dare not face me
Talking in circles to start confusion
(but empty words they fly through my mind)
With all their lies and prophecies they try - but they'll
never get me

... They'll never get me

With staring eyes they follow me
(it seems to be the peak of their lives)
I hate you all, why can't you fuckin' see - you cannot scare
me
Like an image passin' by I see it ends the day that I die
Until then I'll have powers left to fight - they'll never get
me

... They'll never get me

All that's left to say... as I turn away
I hate you all... and I will 'til I fall!!

A life beyond reality, a must to reach the only way out
So distant to this rotten world and I know - it isn't for me
I don't care what they say, I am myself and live my own way
Like rats they run in life's eternal wheel - but they'll never
get me

... They'll never get me

04. Shadows In The Deep

Music by Fredrik Lindgren
Lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
Shadows in the deep, once flesh and blood
Promised to finally see the light
Taking farewell of this life's mortal Hell
Hope to face the master, his blessings to tell
But lost are the souls who gaze into void
In search for a life beyond the grave

Still shadows bleed... eternally

Shadows in the deep, longing for life
Endlessly regretting the search for the light
The mortal life is gone but still shadows bleed
Tortured are the souls from a life without sins
An eternal wait for bodily ecstasy
To revel in lust, anger and greed

Still shadows bleed... eternally

Shadows in the deep, not for man to see
Captured here forever, never to be free
Taking farewell of this life's mortal Hell
Hope to face the master, his blessings to tell
But lost are the souls who gaze into void
In search for a life beyond the grave

Beyond the grave... shadows still bleed... eternally

06. Never Ending Hate

Music & lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
Mindless people without a face
Cannot stand our human race
So they call us left behind
We laugh with pride, stand and fight

Never ending hate

Politicians in the lead
Empty brains they will feed
Never trust'em not a sound
Slay'em down to the ground

Never ending hate

Try to make us compromise
Listen fast simple minds!
No pretending, we don't care
Bangin' heads everywhere

Never ending hate

Try to push us off the way
Here and now is the time to slay -
The lowest form of human life
Are fashion wimps with lying eyes
With crushing power from within
Every battle we shall win
Man of clay say goodbye
We're unleashed step aside!

Never ending hate

07. Onward Into Countless Battles

Music & lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
Off we sail from Svea shores
To test our steel through out the world
Soon to come a raging battle
The strong will join and the weak shall fall
The army of immortals rise
To seek revenge of all the false
So we raise the hammer high
And call to Odin for a sign...

Join us in this holy war
Against the world and all it stands for
Crush the men of fashion's flow,
The slaves of Christ and the thrells of Islam
Riding on the blackest wind
We can't be stopped, we cannot fail
So we raise the horn of pride
And drink to glory and victory...

Onward into countless battles
We took the crown from sacred land
Soon return to Birka shores
Through storm, rain and hellish waters
Men of power, strength and might
Were born to live forever more
So we raise the hammer high
And call to Thor for a sign...

08. Crush The Skull

Music & lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
Preachers of the ancient lies
Hypocrisy the golden rule
I'm laughing with sardonic wrath
At each of your ten commands

Crush the skull - sacrifice
Crush the skull - die Christ

Cursed are the poor in spirit
For they shall be spat upon
Cursed are the weak in mind
For they shall inherit the yoke

Crush the skull - sacrifice
Crush the skull - die Christ

I gaze into his glassy eyes
And pluck him by the beard
I uplift a broadaxe
And split open his worm eaten skull

Crush the skull - sacrifice
Crush the skull - die Christ

Blessed are the strong in mind
For they shall possess the earth
Blessed are the evil ways
(the sins of life)
For they shall enlight the blind

Crush the skull - sacrifice
Crush the skull - die Christ

09. Bloodbath

Music & lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
Eyes cry
How nice
Screams of pain
Am I insane?

...Bloodbath

To hunt the prey
Makes my day
Break the bones
Blood flows

Torn apart
Sliced heart
Stench from Hell
I can tell

...Bloodbath

Cries - I hear nothing but - cries
Blood - I see nothing but - blood

...Bloodbath

Night fall
Victim crawl
Once again
I demand

...Bloodbath

Pain - I give nothing but - pain
Joy - I feel nothing but - joy

...Bloodbath

10. Land Of Ice

Music & lyrics by Johnny Hedlund
Silent nights
Under the winter sky
In the land of ice
Where the snow is white
Silent nights
And the northern breeze
In the land of ice
Where my soul is free

...My land of ice

Silent nights
On my ancestors ground
In the land of ice
Where the hooves of Sleipnir pound
Silent nights
And the oath is sworn
In the land of ice
As my son is born

...My land of ice

Silent nights
Where all shadows lay
In the land of ice
Oh, so far away
Silent nights
Where my eyes can see
In the land of ice
I shall rest in peace
