Tracks



01. Enemy Within

Arise of fear, no spawn of mine
Diseased, unamed, unleashed, alive

Turn my head to face another direction
Everlasting pain of a hollow deception
Can you tell me how to rid this infection?
All the time I feel it tearing within me
Parasitic vengeance rising before thee
Can you feel it growing, feeding inside me?

Don't forgive me now

I thought I had fallen in fear
Disappeared, though so near
Beneath the darkness forever

Retribution
Of the soul
Dissolution
You're the enemy within

Don't you know I'm you're slave no more?
Master, unbound, ruler of all

Blistering the undeniable shake down
Look around to see society break down
Desecration of the core, inner meltdown
The enemy will never fall to the pilgrim
Sick of sin I drink the bile of my victims
Teach me how to
Keep 'em alive for the maiming

Don't forgive me now

I thought I had fallen in fear
Disappeared, though so near
Beneath the darkness forever

Retribution
Of the soul
Dissolution
You're the enemy within

Lay waste and conspire to redeem my mind
Inspire my defeat I will seek
retribution of the soul
dissolution, you're the enemy within

The enemy within...I'm the enemy within

'Always around you...staring back
From the core of darkness'
'I'm the source, I'm the cause
I am consequence'

02. The Empires Of The Worlds

Since I was five I had a gun welded on me
I was taught how to hate
I was taught how to kill
Since I was five I had a dream

To fight for my race/to fight for my god
To fight for my kind
Destroy and expand re-live the story
Of humans past

All I need is war, all I need is hatred
From the fear that's in your heart
I'm attracted like a shark in bloody waters

Hear my cries of pain, hear my cries of war
It's creeping in my flesh
Animal instinct
It always drives me to attack

I fight the empires of the worlds
Prolonging your demise
Blood red skies are open wide
Fight the empires of the worlds
For we the human race
Victory is genocide
Victory/Genocide
Victory/Genocide

The scars on my face
Can tell you tales of human wars
Enemy blood has run through them
And dried through them
I need some more

We slaughtered we killed proud and thrilled
Burned the enemies flags
Invaded each others lands
And celebrated a billion deaths

In the name of god?
In the name of money?
In the name of power?
This is what we thought
And this is why we fought

Now we hold the truth
We don't fight each other
Forever our fear is abolished
Beyond the boundaries
Of the hated in our souls

I fight the empires of the worlds
Prolonging your demise
Blood red skies are open wide
Fight the empires of the worlds
For we the human race
Victory is genocide
Victory/Genocide
Victory/Genocide

Yes I know the truth I know how to kill
Knowing how to kill is knowing how to survive
Knowing how to survive
Is knowing how to spread the spawn
The spawn of my race
The human race

I fight the empires of the worlds
Prolonging your demise
Blood red skies are open wide
Fight the empires of the worlds
For we the human race
Victory is genocide
Victory/Genocide
Victory/Genocide

03. Assaulter

Activate, inferred, de-locate / re-locate
Infiltrate, instigate, penetrate, violate
Your fear for survival, instinctive, addictive
It drives me it commands me
No escape
I follow so closely to watch you as you die
To hear you as you cry
As you're screaming my name

Detected, infected, inserted with virus
Acetic infusion, genetic intrusion
Incubate my offspring in the cells of your blood
What lies beneath my skin
You can never detract

I become you
As I watch you demise through your eyes
As feed from your death, from your life
From your dreams, from your pain
As you're screaming
Assaulter

Neutralise, humanise, integrate, simulate
Dominate, instigate, extirpate, violate
Your fear for survival, instinctive, addictive
It drives me it commands me
No escape
I follow so closely to watch you as you die
To hear you as you cry
As you're screaming my name

Impulsive, corrosivem aggressive, desire
I seek no redemption for I am forgiven
And given the power to reclaim my birthright
What lies beneath my skin I can never detract.

I become you
As I watch you demise through your eyes
As feed from your death, from your life
From your dreams, from your pain
As you're screaming
Assaulter

Slowly assimilated
Brutally annihilated

Infiltrate, instigate, penetrate, violate
Your fear for survival, instinctive, addictive
It drives me it commands me
No escape
I follow so closely to watch you as you die
To hear you as you cry
As you're screaming my name

Impulsive, corrosivem aggressive, desire
I seek no redemption for I am forgiven
And given the power to reclaim my birthright
What lies beneath my skin you can never detract

I become you
As I watch you demise through your eyes
As feed from your death, from your life
From your dreams, from your pain
As you're screaming
Assaulter

04. Relinquished Destiny

Silent walls close in on me
The darkness stirs lost memories
Can you feel it preying on my mind
Waiting...
Recreating...
Yeah...

Indescribable fears hold my eyes to the truth
Of who I really am

Tell me this why is it

That when I look in the mirror
I see a man with no face

Hollow dreams
Shattered screams
Send forth the creature
That is stalking me night after night

Insanity
Writhes within me
Voices bleed the truth
Of my relinquished destiny

Memories Creep inside
A stream of blood through the innocent slain
Cleanses all of my sins
Slowly...
Painfully...

Indescribable fears hold my eyes to the truth
Of who I really am

Tell me this why is it

That when I look in the mirror
I see a man with no face

Hollow dreams
Shattered screams
Send forth the creature
That is stalking me night after night

Insanity
Writhes within me
Voices bleed the truth
Of my relinquished destiny

Beast of pray
I've become.
A leviathan in the deepest sea of consciousness
Insanity
Writhes within me
Voices bleed the truth
Of my relinquished destiny

Kill me!

Pull the trigger
Free me
Let me die before I awake

I need...I breed...I bleed...Inhumane innocence

Kill me!

'Deteriorating visions of horrific rituals
seep through my skin
crashing ,y outer defences
Reminiscence of carnage
Engraved deeply on my skull
Resurface one again
Is there no forsaking
Is there no awakening?'

Kill me!

05. Long Time Dead

I rise again
Clawing at the veils
Awakening my thoughts
To what has never been

I'm reaching out
Blinded by the darkness still...
I feel what truth is left for me

Unending dreams

Beyond where I have been, just lies deceit

Unspoken words now told
And so the truth reveals

..."Fight this fear
Infuse the lies"...

"...break the fear
Unleash the lies..."

For what I am
Eternal hate can never break me inside I'm alive
Condemn my heart, condemn my soul
But feel the light pulsating me alight
Now I know, yes I know
I've been a long time dead

Un recognised
Always I've been there
Unseen I walk through the recollections once again

Un-compromised
Not bound by worlds of the enslaved
Unnamed I rules the darkest skies
...that now imprison me

For what I am
Eternal hate can never break me inside I'm alive
Condemn my heart, condemn my soul
But feel the light pulsating me alight
Now I know, yes I know
for what I am is what I am
I've never been I've never breathed
I've been a long time dead

For what I am
Eternal hate can never break me inside I'm alive
Condemn my heart, condemn my soul
But feel the light pulsating me alight
For what I am is what I am
Eternal hate cant break me
Condemn my heart, condemn my soul
But feel the life pulsating

For what I am is what I am
I've never been I've never breathed

Throughout my life
I've always known
The poisonous lies
I've been fed through intravenously
My very soul instills
The fear of a long time dead

06. Regenerated

I've found my life force again
I live I breathe the crucial elements
Re-shed my minds second skin
I am within
Power that grips me I rise with my ferocity
Tear at the reins
Relieve the pains of my blood caressing me
Re-born a victim of lies
Fatal reprise
When will I die?

Cant stop me
I'll suffocate till I'm blind
And revive
I have returned forever

Regenerated... Reincarnated
Regenerated... Reincarnated

A systematic attack
I cant detract the core that beckons me
A dark forgotten abyss
I fight the mist
Release my entity
Drive me to my extremity
Cannot protect, evil infects
The mind that breeds inside
Look at me straight in the eyes... fatal reprise
When will I die

Cant stop me
I'll suffocate till I'm blind
And revive
I have returned forever

Regenerated... Reincarnated
Regenerated... Reincarnated

Tear at the scar on my face
Let it feed my hunger
Release the knife from my back
Let it seethe in anger
Under attack

Forget the fear I've shown
Break from the tomb I've known
Destroy the soul of sin
Reclaim the power that I gloried in

Cant stop me
I'll suffocate till I'm blind
And revive
I have returned forever

Regenerated... Reincarnated
Regenerated... Reincarnated

I'm reborn undying
I've returned forever

Sinner deceiver
Call me what you will

07. DNA Metastasis

Rage
Unfolded
The primal feeling breaks through
The fake surroundings go down, thrown down
All you've been shown
Transmissions made to blind you
This cancer spreads beside you, inside you

Your eyes wont open
They've been sealed
with numbers
tear this membrane
watch/reveal

All you see is what you know
Awaken, forsaken
Unchanged disease within your blood flows
Transcending, descending
so endless, relentless

Cries
They terrorise
But never seem to matter
Genocides lost in urban rituals
Know what you are
Or so you think you're different?
Your names engraved in every bullet

Your eyes wont open
They've been sealed
with numbers
tear this membrane
watch/reveal

All you see is what you know
Awaken, forsaken
Unchanged disease within your blood flows
Transcending, descending
so endless, relentless

Your eyes wont open
They've been sealed
with numbers
tear this membrane
watch/reveal

All you see is what you know
Awaken, forsaken
Unchanged disease within your blood flows
Transcending, descending
So endless, relentless

So endless, relentless
Awaken, forsaken
So endless, relentless
Transcending, descending

08. Survival

Indestructible
Designed human soul
Spitting blood at all
We shan't become tomorrow
Instinct wakes inside you

Look around, you are sin
Plagued, diseased dead within
All this time
Have you ever tried to fight your life?

Survival, Survival
You cant control your biological revival
Procreate to spread hereditary violence
Evolution of the species in defiance
Never letting go

Inconceivable
Subsistence veiled... Untruth
Turn the page and reveal
We're all one blood distorted
Free will sleeps inside you

Look around, you are sin
Plagued, diseased dead within
All this time
Have you ever tried to fight your life?

Survival, Survival
You cant control your biological revival
Procreate to spread hereditary violence
Evolution of the species in defiance
Never letting go

We're victims of our cellular conventions
Relayed through embryonic generations
I fight this plague of parasitic vengeance
Never you will be
Never will you see what I can see

Look around, you are sin
Plagued, diseased dead within
All this time
Have you ever tried to fight your life?

Survival, Survival
You cant control your biological revival
Procreate to spread hereditary violence
Evolution of the species in defiance
Never letting go

You can never tell me what I can or cannot do
You can never show me what I can or cannot do
You will never dictate me what I can or cannot do
You will never tell me what I can or cannot do

This is my survival

09. Existenz

Break out of me
The end and the beginning
Fighting me wont erase the lies, forgiving has

Passed beyond
This divine assimilation
No faith, no fear, no lies just instant killing

Void of light
Sheds the dark I now see clearly
What will be
Frozen faces, eyes revealing
Ages of search for internal absolution
From within decay and rot I see me
It cant be undone!!

See through me this pain this fear
This uncontrollable corrosion
Acetic rain pours down on me
Impure and sinful fuses my skin

With inner death - soul decay
The essence of my existenz

Strike
Cant break me
I know I am forever
See my past
Poison refined through trepidation
What I am
Warfare, pure annihilation

No faith no fear no lies just instant killing

Go beyond
Boundaries of strength, unbroken
Strand of fate
Predetermined life
Unspoken is this truth
consumed by ignorance our spirits
Ceased to be, depressed, incinerated
It cant be undone

See through me this pain this fear
This uncontrollable corrosion
Acetic rain pours down on me
Impure and sinful fuses my skin

With inner death - soul decay
The essence of my existenz

Eight moons hiding in eternity,
Shadowing my destiny
All I was, all I am, all I'll ever be
Never known where it ends
What this life would be
All I was, all I am, all I'll ever be...

It cant be undone

See through me this pain this fear
This uncontrollable corrosion
Acetic rain pours down on me
Impure and sinful fuses my skin

With inner death - soul decay
The essence of my existenz

Pain... fear...
Crashed into silence

Fate... failed
Now I'm forever
With inner death, soul decay
The essence of my existenz

10. Truth Denied

Scar me, condemn me, for all my, redemption
The source of infection
My rights as a man for you
Deny my feeling, my knowing, my being
All I not, forgiven, for my believing?

Cant stop me you wont stop me
Cant break me you wont break me
Cant trust me you wont trust me
Give me cause to fight the system

Truth denied
Truth denied
Truth denied
Truth is denied

I'm the believer, a tainted deceiver
My thoughts are reshaped by the powers that be
Blind me design me construct me instruct me
But you cant refuse what I can see

Cant stop me you wont stop me
Cant break me you wont break me
Cant trust me you wont trust me
Give me cause to fight the system

Truth denied
Truth denied
Truth denied
Truth is denied

Cant stop me you wont stop me
Cant trust me you wont trust me
Cant break me you wont break me

Cant stop me you wont stop me
Cant break me you wont break me
Cant trust me you wont trust me

Give me cause to fight the system
Give me back the truth denied

11. Absolution

"Listen to me... listen to me,
You must awake... you have to awake,
There isn't much time left for me,
This is my final offence!"

[various crazy solo's and stuff]

Part 2: From The Abyss

"Within the endless darkness of the abyss
I can sense all
The bretahing of unknown entities
Crawling through the walls
They seek fear to feed me"

"Beyond the endless darkness of the abyss
I can feel all
What will be my life, my death, my destiny"

Come anger
Come hatred
Unleash this fierce final pain

"I can sense danger
The unknown devours my soul in stillness
Contaminated from the traces of lost past
I walk towards my end"

Imprisoned
My vision
Has grown to be

No feeling
No meaning
This is my life
Purify

Free me
Be me
Oh now release me!

"As silence falls I hold onto the warning
from deep within me"

"I can feel the danger,
I am taken
Through the dark core of my mind...
Images I have never seen"

Inside me
endlessly
Tormenting through my mind
Energy driving me,
Replacing my soul

Not again
Not again
Keep thrashing at my chains
Live, breath, die

Absolution

Final stand in my hand
The darkness in my eyes
Live, breath, die

Come again and again
The power builds inside
Light enraptured

Release me!

I have you know the final day
You cannot get away

Go ahead
Grab the hand before you
It will destroy you

Broken down into dust
The fragments of your past

Descending fast
for all your sins and anger
It's all too late now

Hear, me, rising in the dark
Fear, me, ascending towards you
Come again and again
The power builds inside
Light enraptured

Come anger, Come hatred
Unleash this fierce eternal truth
Release me, reveal me
I cant contain the end of you

I am, I am, disintegration

Look around,
Can you tell
I'm ready to consume

Can you feel
Years of sin inside you?
It will devour you

In the end
I'm condemned
A martyr of the cause

God of men,
Born to kill redemption
The souls infection

Hear, me, rising in the dark
Fear, me, ascending towards you
Come again and again
The power builds inside
Light enraptured

Come anger, Come hatred
Unleash this fierce eternal truth
Release me, reveal me
I cant contain the end of you

I am I am disintegration

Come again and again
The power builds inside
Light enraptured

Come anger, Come hatred
Unleash this fierce eternal truth
Release me, reveal me
I cant contain the end of you

I am I am disintegration
