01. Five Serpent's Teeth

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
Breaking beyond the path
Betrayer of my thoughts
There's no way to stop
This venomous shot
Intentions become remorse
My blood electric with
Desire to smash restrain
As measured in blood
Still punishment should
Come to the one unnamed

Serpents connected
Potent and set to kill
Serpents perfected
Settle the scores one by one

Gathered for the revolution
Fortunes ever intertwined
One of these Five Serpent's Teeth
I save for you

Complete the coil we set
Where buried the sorrowed crown
Stand off and face
A point blank embrace
There's no other way but down
Waiting before the sign
With anger the chambers inject
Find clearer sights
Disorder ignite
The spiraling law protects

Serpents connected
Potent and set to kill
Serpents perfected
Settle the scores one by one

Realize, isolation
Take your place
Terminate, by formation
Reveal your guilt
Manifest, retribution
You served yourself
Demonstrate, evolution

This world will one day break you
To show you yourself so we may see
What lies beneath the mask you wear
To cover yourself to deceive

Born unto greed
Living to deceive

Lay the coins on dead men's eyes
Malevolence
Hide no more

Gathered for the revolution
Fortunes ever intertwined
One of these Serpent's Teeth
I save for you
I save for you
One of these Serpent's Teeth
I save for you.

02. In Dreams Of Terror

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
In dreams of terror leave me be
Look straight at me
As near you fear to stand
Questions, answers I have all in hand
Confused, Unwanted your universe becomes
Our obsession our deeper curse

From beyond us
Dealing madness
Only rising to breathe
The horrors
Illusions
Infinity to be
You have to let me free

Movement lurking deeper down it leads
Make it live I keep it here with me
In dreams of terror leave me be

Share your thoughts
Be they fixed on birth or death
Learnings, teachings, a purging breath
Careless reasons for words we have obeyed
Far sight into what distant lays

From beyond us
Dealing madness
Only rising to breathe
The horrors
Illusions
Infinity to be
You have to let me free

Am I hearing the voice of reason?
Let me save myself
Let me suffer, my way

Terror
Unleashed the nameless descending
Promised released to mystify
Horror
Thoughts of what must be inside me
Deliver the oath to keep me alive

This tomb animated unaware it calls
Drifting further beyond us all
Beware they hold the darkest discipline
Cutting deepest where the virtue thins

From beyond us
Dealing madness
Only rising to breathe
The horrors
Illusions
All this is real

Real terror
Ancients awake
Let knowing that which I take

Movement lurking deeper down it leads
Make it live I keep it here with me
In dreams of terror leave me be

03. Cult

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
They say believing is what we see
Though faith we sell
You want reward beyond where you lay
Look where we tell
Have you been searching for an answer to what you hide?
We'll keep your soul and your emotion
In us confide

Purify your eyes
For you beg to be ever god's size
We can end your cries
All we ask is that you join our cult.

We are the friend you can't trust in now
We are your grace
Nobody else will dare question us
This power saves
You haven't seen beyond the real world
We'll take you there
But not before we hear you confess
And say our prayers

Purify your eyes
For you beg to be ever god's size
We can end your cries
All we ask is that you join our cult.

We can deliver you
Four winds come into view
Breathe deep of our beliefs
The cult knows you'll never leave

Purify your eyes
For you beg to be ever god's size
We can end your cries
All we ask is that you join our cult

04. Eternal Empire

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
A seed is planted of a greater place
Where no wrongs shall ever be done
Where all dreams and wishes be granted
And our fears forever overcome
What can you say of limited life
Are you never satisfied?
With no uncertainty to tread
But me, I'd rather be dead

At the end they promise one more chance at life
With a word, with a book, with their selfish rites
On and on await the ever burning light
Never take, never break, never leave the line
Keeping all of worth no matter what remains
When it's time nothing more enough my eyes explain
Ever we endure the wisdom of mistakes
Never right, never wrong but always ours to make

If I met this maker
I'd beg they listen well
To many histories gathered from this hell
Nothing could give purpose
To that I've no desire
A prison of the soul
Eternal empire

Time irresolute will ever take its toll
Many ways, many words, each of us our own
Seeing past the veil with nothing more to learn
Given voice, given vote, I wish to not return
Service for reward the next life it can be
For this tide be here now a selfish act it seems
Rapture for oneself a greed to yet reject
Further on in my sight the universe connect

If I met this maker
I'd beg they listen well
To many histories gathered from this hell
Nothing could give purpose
To that I've no desire
A prison of the soul
Eternal empire

Pacified by a life restrained
Gone are shades that defined
Complacent the wicked friend
If this is life
I want no...

Empire, eternal empire,
I need no kingdom
Empire, eternal empire
I take the poison for the cure

Past heavens gate, there is no escape
For the ages I'll have laid my head down
Feed me no concern, for this I have learned
Seeing forever all is mine to burn
All is mine to burn

Empire, eternal empire, I need no kingdom
Empire, eternal empire, I take the poison

If I met this maker
I'd beg they listen well
To many histories gathered from this hell
Nothing could give purpose
To that I've no desire
A prison of the soul
Eternal empire

05. Xaraya

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
Left always to be among others needs
Please someone hear my cries
Just who will see that I long to be
No partner in misery?
No, never she hears, mother I call
Curse she has said
So self aware, the habit she wears
Sedation before a care

I breathe deep
Inviting sleep
I beg
Save me and take me home

How we all soon forget
Born another vague regret
All I ever wish to be
Buried in my screams
Dehumanized
Dehumanized

This world I never wanted
For this world I never asked

Eyes opened to sin, a struggle begins
Wherever was the choice?
Are these the ones I trust upon?
They can't even save themselves
My fortune in doubt, living without
Life within self
Others the same accepted in shame
A cycle without an end.

I breathe deep
Inviting sleep
I beg
Save me and take me home

How we all soon forget
Born another vague regret
All I ever wish to be
Buried in my screams
Dehumanized
Dehumanized

This world I never wanted
For this world I never asked

I never knew, I never saw
Given no choice to bear a voice
Prisoner in a empty life
No one can see until too late

The winds of black will sweep me up
And take me back to where I know
The only thing in my control
Is I can be one more lost soul

For this world I never wanted
For this world I never asked
I breathe deep
Invite sleep
I am dehumanized

06. Origin Of Oblivion

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
Release my sense awareness
Dead to the world, we still have connection
Become one with the structure
Looking on their projections
Soon to be moving forward
Our foresight has always been so blind
Answer calls universal
Listen to that you find

Swallowed by blame
Subconscious reclaimed
I wander this earth regained

I am witness to all creation
Origin of oblivion
You are warned

Abandon all hope, he who enters
Suffer the pains that be
Abandon all hope, he who enters
Death becomes machine

Bound as servants we would be
I will never become machine

Beware for gone is the order
Even when they promise to protect you
Destroy me to revive me
Replace cause to become new
Reason with hell and rapture
Give to the world a measure of decay
Never be as my visions
Still minutes fall away

Swallowed by blame
Subconscious reclaimed
I wander this earth regained

I am witness to all creation
Origin of oblivion
You are warned

Abandon all hope, he who enters
Suffer the pains that be
Abandon all hope, he who enters
Death becomes machine

What you seek you'll find
Where the unreal meets the skies
If only you could see what I've seen
With your eyes

Bound as servants we would be
I will never become machine
More than human we could be
I will never become machine

Swallowed by blame
Subconscious reclaimed
I wander this earth regained

Abandon all hope, he who enters
Death becomes machine

Become machine

I will never become machine
I will never become machine
I will never become machine
I will never become machine
I will never become machine
I will never become machine

07. Centurion

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
I guard the great dominion
State and realm I honour first
Fear me, the great protector
Strength waiting the perfect curse

Prepare
Prepare for war

I give orders, obey
I live for glory of the powerful legion
And nothing more
I am Centurion
(One with the gods)
The warrior
(Defy the hordes)
Superior
I am Centurion

Break dawn with screaming soldiers
Crash through mists with demon eyes
Death hunt near a hundred rising
Tread towards the troubled skies
Stare down the great immortals
They release their darkest force
Hold now prepare for warfare
Surge the power from its source

Prepare
Prepare for war

I give orders, obey
I live for glory of the powerful legion
And nothing more
I am Centurion
(One with the gods)
The warrior
(Defy the hordes)
Superior
I am Centurion

Strike for blood across the fields
Claim my real gain
Meet my foes with sword and shield
Fear my eternal name

I give orders, obey
I live for glory of the powerful legion
And nothing more
I am Centurion
(One with the gods)
The warrior
(Defy the hordes)
Superior
I am Centurion

Centurion

08. In Memoriam

Music by Evile & Mike Alexander
Lyrics by Ol Drake
When the darkness takes from me
Cruel hands are scorned
How our light dims carelessly
Bringing bare minds torn

Come with me
When the darkness comes
We all must leave
When the darkness comes

Sifting through my memories
Lifting spirits once more
Ones we lose forever breathe
Through the past reborn

Come with me
When the darkness comes
We all must leave
When the darkness comes

Wasted seasons surround us
Take not for granted your time
Such a thing waits for no man
Stone gardens stand before us
Lifelong the memoirs always rhyme
Try to live before one dies

Come with me
When the darkness comes
We all must leave
When the darkness comes

09. Descent Into Madness

Music by Evile
Lyrics by Matt Drake
The trespass I have committed
The distant sun and the storm are witness to what I've brought you through
There's nothing else left to save
I've taken all else but blame
I've left you with a tortured view

Never the same
Descent into madness
Seasons enslaved
A new fixation
Wakened from slumber I show you just what obsession offers
Greater the forces that push you to make
Your descent into madness

Surfaced again for air
In seas of torment I cleanse
Await my reward, the chance to redeem
Release from the unseen creatures
Everything's not as it seems
Reality not the same as the dream

Damned are the unfortunate
Branded as the guilty
Into their madness descend

Descend into madness
Descent into madness

Damned are the unfortunate
Branded as the guilty
Into their madness descend

10. Long Live New Flesh

Music by Evile & Mike Alexander
Lyrics by Matt Drake
Long live the new flesh
Long live the new flesh

Why must they destroy what they cannot understand?
Imprisoned dreams are further slipping through old hands
Ruler of the world alone becoming something never known
What's real the void will terrify

Long live the new flesh
Long live the new flesh

Passages of time blurring ever changing lines
Visions of temptation, the destroyer awaits the sign
Empathy a solemn weight for captive thought within the gates
A stain of mind with no reprieve
Curious the mind aware delivered of inhuman cares
In disbelief you will remember

Long live
New flesh
Long live
New flesh

Misgivings
No control
Dark secrets
Long live the new flesh

Long live the mind possessed
Long live the one request
Long live the new flesh
Replace the man before
Resolve uneven scores
Protect the clear law

Long live the new flesh

Reinforce, become aware
Separate, within I stare
Cure me of unrest
Conceive the outcome
Mirror be undone

Long live the mind possessed
Long live the one request
Long live the new flesh
Replace the man before
Resolve uneven scores

Long live the new flesh
