Born with the soul of a liar
A murderer, bred for the kill Out from your mouth comes forth nothing but deceit I want only to see it shut After what you've taken away There can be no forgiveness An eye for an eye Will make the whole world blind Still, I want you to die! Take back what is mine Still, I want you to die Thief who steals life Jackal! You were the hunter (hunter!)...but now I'm hunting you down You were a sinner (sinner!)...but soon you will sin no more Cannot escape...I never rest, I never desist Feel no remorse Solo: Laux Solo: Carroll You lose! I gain! From all your suffering Now your lying tongue has been cut...out! Deed is finally done What have I become Hate what is myself Two jackals burning in hell 02. Living In A Whirlwind Music by Warbringer Lyrics by John Kevill
Living in a whirlwind!
Spiraling out of control! In the eye of the storm Disconnected, from the world you were born Cheating death, just to get your fix Cannot survive, it's the end of the line They look you in the eye and all they see is an empty stare Living like a rat, you choke on your despair Still you're sinking lower, each day more desperate You hide below the surface, waiting for the end Escape! Must escape Ridden with the stress that you can't take! Arrgh, must escape No time to turn back, far too late! Can't escape Everything around you, ceased to make sense Waiting until your time will come... To pass Look into the mirror at what used to be your face A ghastly visage you don't recognize, gone without a trace Wasted! Solo: Laux Whirlwind! Whirlwind 03. Severed Reality Music by Warbringer Lyrics by John Kevill
Descending! Into madness
Sanity falling away! Nothing remains from the world you have known Enter the realms beyond the gate Twisting masses taking form beyond the murky black A scream breaks the silence and the skies begin to crack Eyes burst forth from the body Their whispers seared into your brain Beckoning your descent You stare into the void it calls your name... Twisting masses taking form beyond the murky black Severed from reality, impossible to turn back Souls held captive, whither away and die! Sickening screams of horror rend the affrighted skies Trapped in the path of an oncoming STORM Look behind the eyes of the dead Empty walls with no way out! Lost inside this... Severed! Severed reality! Severed! Severed reality, ugh! Solo: Laux Solo: Carroll Your mind falls into black abyss Nothing left the same Mouths emerge from every shape Howls like dust from the grave Within cryptic realms unknown Draped in endless night With all your might you try to escape, but still your lost inside! Severed! 04. Scorched Earth Music by Warbringer Lyrics by John Kevill
Indiscriminate killings
Lacking reason why Hunting you down from the sky A trail of destruction Afflicting plague and strife Leaving the sick ones to die Scorched Earth! Scorched Earth! Without mercy, without regret Got you in my sights for the kill Pull the trigger and you fall Cadavers of the slain lie there without number I pile their bones into my throne And drink from human skulls Scorched Earth! Scorched Earth! Solo: Laux Solo: Carroll Indiscriminate murder Exterminating life The masses cut down to size Relentless shotgun violence You're caught in the crossfire Instant annihilation Pierced from every side Scorched! Scorched Earth Scorched Earth 05. Abandoned By Time Music by Warbringer Lyrics by John Kevill
Solo: Carroll
Blood spilled upon the sands of time, the years passing by take their toll Atrocities of ages gone, their tales forgotten and old Another wicked tyrant reigns in terror, another city falls Through thousands of years and millions of deaths we learn nothing changes at all Lost from memory Abandoned...by time Through ages of depravity Abandoned...by time Though we thought the time was done when man preys on man like beast Man is just an animal, it's hunt for power will never cease The ones who rule use you as a tool to meet their ends Their hunger never sated, their bloodlust infinite Lost from memory Abandoned...by time A dark age of brutality Abandoned...by time Look at all the horrors Across the centuries Volcanic explosion Brings kingdoms to their knees Left a smoking ruin Smoldering decay Buried beneath the ashes Lies shattered remains Solo: Carroll Solo: Laux It all passes by, beyond your control The march of time keeps pressing on, devoid of any soul Witness your mortal life fade into the past As all you have known and all you have loved disintegrate into ash Into ash! Can't find a solution for your harrowing distress Impermanence of all you see renders it meaningless Those in your life one by one passing on Who will speak of them when a thousand years are gone... None! Abandoned...by time 06. Prey For Death Music by Warbringer Lyrics by John Kevill
Heat beats down over barren wastes
Desolate realms of ash Vultures circling overhead They feed on your dying past Victims of our need to consume Strip the world of life Can't sustain your decadent ways How...can we survive? End of humankind And you know there's nothing left Prey For Death Solo: Carroll Parched with thirst but you cannot drink The oceans melt away Breed so you can eat the young Keeps hunger at bay Twisting mass of starving flesh Hands held to the sky Can't sustain these decadent ways Knowing...it's your time Left alone to die Under the sun there's nothing left Prey For Death Rotting inside Waiting to die No one is spared from the march of time End of making End of all life Nothing is left so you pray for death Prey Solo: Carroll 07. Nightmare Anatomy Music by Warbringer
[Instrumental]
08. Shadow From The Tomb Music by Warbringer Lyrics by Ben Bennett
Forming vicious impressions of hate
Redemption of birth it is never too late Enraging due to obliviousness Anger from my catatonic state Ferocious Repulsion Voices scream, mind erodes Cerebral cortex shatters, explodes Forcing my thirst onto the land Will never be quenched by my raging hand Atrocious Nightmare I will prevail The beatings will never cease I will prevail The beatings will never cease Don't give a fuck about the way of change Until the voices find their peace Bring me to annihilation From your rehabilitation Should've gave me stimulation Took away my basic freedoms Told me I don't fucking need 'em Dope fed through television The time has come, my conscious has told me to kill The time has come, the weak submit to my will A shadow from the tomb I will prevail The beatings will never cease Don't give a fuck about the way of change Until the voices find their peace Another fucking institution Always means the best solutions Oh the ways that I'll abuse them Tie up all the fucking brats Children of aristocrats Beat 'em with a wooden bat I show no remorse, women and children are first! I show no remorse, masturbate to the screams of the cursed! A shadow from the tomb! A shadow! Solo: Carroll 09. Senseless Life Music by Warbringer Lyrics by John Kevill
From the moment you were born you were dying
With one foot planted in the grave Programmed by your surroundings To react in a given set of ways You can't think for yourself so you are already dead Follow only the ways of your own, abandon laws of god Held in check by convention, strangling free thought Your choice is only consequence, eyes are stricken blind Lies! Senseless life Life! Living a senseless life Bred to swallow lies, to ignore the glaring truth Do the world some good and resist The urge to reproduce Unable to be free, life's hopeless for you Circumstance will dictate your every move Lies! Senseless life Life! Living a senseless life Lies! Senseless lies! Ugh..living your worthless life Solo: Carroll Heal the gaping wound between the mind, the body and the soul Cast off the chains which bind, for all time, regain control Solo: Laux Solo: Carroll 10. Forgotten Dead Music by Warbringer Lyrics by John Kevill
Solo: Carroll
Encircled, cut off from reinforcement At all costs you must hold the line Living among the slain with the knowledge You could join them at any time The enemy advances without number Signaled by a creeping barrage The attack goes on for weeks and weeks The trenches awash with blood Gunning down the enemy Each one without a face What once were fields of green Are now endless fields of graves Forgotten Forgotten Forgotten Dead March! Solo: Carroll Solo: Laux Your comrade rises up to fire You watch in horror as he falls The life drained away from his body Through the hole in his skull Gunning down the enemy Send them to their graves The ways of man will never change The fallen die in vain Forgotten Forgotten Dead! Dead! Dead! The whistle blows, you are forced to advance Into oncoming machine gun fire Caught in the blast as the mines detonate Lifeless bodies hang from barbed wire Stabbed through the gut by a bayonet, blood chokes your scream Another dying soul is laid upon the altar of mankind's greed Forgotten Dead! |
