Shaken and stirred in the dungeons!
Why is it you find yourself there? Left in the mud - without a torch (A fruitless endeavour) and no one cares! ...No they don't - ah! Seen stumbling around in darkness - questioning honours and dreams Those treasures will never befall you - they're out of reach Crawling out at the foot of the mountain Even weaker than when you entered! - When you have no soul and guidance is none, there's no use in being self-centered!!! ...No it ain't! Seen stumbling around in the darkness - questioning honours and dreams (Then) those treasures will never befall you - they're out of reach... ...For you! 02. Running For Borders
Drowned in stellar dust
We create beginning and end Crumbles constantly We know the center of End Who are you on stage? Breathe deeply Lungs filled with waste Running for borders Helpless heart Pumping fuel, veins splintered Thoughts divided Building up chaos Torn from haven Answers never come Floating wisdom Ancient in its purest form Gravitate towards center Visuals fade This is the realm of power Stellar detonations Universe is gloating, hovering Judge, jury and executioner Now freeze Veins injected with time 03. I Am The Graves Of The 80s
There's too many struggles
There's too many fears I've hardened my blood now For so many years! Uh! I am the graves of the 80s I am the risen dead Destroy their modern metal And bang your fucking head Uh! There's way too much black And there's too little metal Dealing with this had me breaking my shackles! I am the graves of the 80s I am the risen dead Destroy their modern metal And bang your fucking head Destroy! United by hatred... Reborn through hate... 04. Stylized Corpse
Walk around, like royalty
Just a stylized corpse Life has reached the end On the inside Proud of what you have "achieved" You'll soon see the truth, I'll show you Grabbing my tools, I firmly believe I'm your saviour and icon Chain you to the wall Blowtorch literally open your eyes You feel superior now? All you can do, is imagine my world Let the chipmunks feast on your heart Oh, this luxury life All the juices of lies Doesn't smell like a bowl of fruit But I am strong and brute Send you back among the dead No one will see that you're born again I'm your saviour, and I made your day Sleeping in a pool of human debris 05. Circle The Wagons
You're scanning the landscape...
You feel like a true pioneer As Romans you conquer On top of your fear (Just) hope you awaken in time And know that you are on my mind Look over your shoulders - you're blind! And circle the wagons 20 years later I take you apart You're asking - you're asking why? I have no heart! (Just) hope you awaken in time And know that you are on my mind Look over your shoulders - you're blind! And then! Circle the wagons... 06. Black Mountain Totem
I am in a mountain cave
The night is playing outside Seas yonder swim in starlight Swirling fires grace the plains There are treasures (the) night can't hide And within me things no sun can see This is where I stood my ground - Opened gates for you and me For each day that passes I see more and more Sometimes the universe opens (And) the soul cries, hoarse and sore Still I live for those moments At least the ancient ones stand by my side No matter how the human plagues weighs heavy Night on earth can harbour eternal pride 07. I Am The Working Class
21 years of minimum wage
Got no problems with manual labour You stepped up in the 90s, wanna show me how Well, I don't need no fuckin' favour I am the working class! All day So I don't have to See your face I am the working class! Discipline The daybreak is when I begin I am the working class! Each day I bust my bones to Get paid I am the working class! Damn straight The daily grind is My fate Through 7 seas of alcohol And a jail of dank depression Well, I turned my back and where are you now? ...and I've bucked up for that recession I am the working class! All day So I don't have to See your face I am the working class! Discipline The daybreak is when I begin I am the working class! Each day I bust my bones to Get paid I am the working class! Damn straight The daily grind is My fate 08. Eyes Burst At Dawn
Struggled to awake for eons, merciless fate
Fingers moving, twisting sickly, silence is broken Air is dead in this cave, dead as murdered Only 10 feet crawling to get outside, black night Hysterical laughter is hammering the stone walls Ears bleeding... depressed Overcoming psychical nightmares, starts crawling Fingers broken, don't fucking care, move on Outside the air is clean, cold and still Eyes are open now, to see this dead night Attacked by sudden fear, unknown constellations Are threatening from above Shivering cold, damaged brain, bleeding the blood Alas, Deathstar is rising, finally to see this place It gets brighter, hurting my eyes, can I bear this pain? As my Deathstar is rising above the hills, my eyes burst Pain so strong, havocing my head, it's dark again 09. Bränn Inte Slottet
