Open Fire!
Speeding like a bullet High velocity Dealing out death with cutting edge technology An agent of the government Their orders absolute They decide who lives or dies deciding who I shoot- You're next! Lazer-guided weapons A storm of molten lead The cutting edge of science is the sciences of death- We strike! Peace agreements shot to pieces In a sudden flash All around you burns to ash Resocialized Now I have no fear Hiding right behind you But you won't see me there Infrared vision I'll hunt you day and night My orders are to murder and I've got you In my sights Living Weapon Now I have become Living Weapon Open fire! Drive the foe out of hiding In the open they are slaughtered Rounding up the population Wives and children, sons and daughters Stand facing the firing squad With orders to be executed A sudden, blinding flash All around you burns to ash! I am chained to the gun Living weapon What have I become? Living! Weapon! Living Weapon! 02. Shattered Like Glass Music by John Laux Lyrics by John Kevill
Hanging from a noose
Wrapped tightly around my neck The sentence passed in haste The verdict incorrect Hangman ties the blindfold Life flashes before my eyes I speak my last words Why must I die? Trapped here in this bedroom As the cancer eats away at me Each and every day, I am withering away Undergoing chemotherapy Disease consumes my body The cure consumes my mind Put me out of my misery Just let me die Screams of the dying The silence of the dead You won't last Shattered like glass Screams of the dying The silence of the dead Nothing lasts Shattered like glass Thrown through the front window A thousand sudden lacerations Injured and disfigured Life becomes damnation Cornered like an animal I struggle to break free Cannot face the horror Of my own mortality We are falling into early graves Help me, I am dying And I cannot see the light Icy hands of death reach out And pull me into the night Nothing ever lasts You won't last The long silence begins You've been shattered 03. Wake Up... Destroy Music by Adam Carroll Lyrics by John Kevill
Bodies lying in the streets
And they're trampling over me State of emergency The city's gone insane Massive scale riots To rise against injustice There stands the monument It will come crashing down Now there is no law Wake up... destroy Loot and pillage Taking what you please Commencing of sacreligion Denying those in need Chaos takes command Hands clench into fists Wake up... destroy Rise! Martial law, advancing shield wall Keeping order with an armored fist This uprising must be contained They will be neutralized... by force Now protestors fight the law A battle in the streets Lashing out with tooth and claw Incendiary bombs Containment has failed They march on city hall The wild, swirling masses Are breaking down the law No one truly wins Reign of terror begins Wake up... destroy 04. Future Ages Gone Music by Adam Carroll Lyrics by John Kevill
Creating a better machine
Rendering ourselves obsolete Will science betray us at last? The age of man fades into the past Ever pressing forward To a new and unseen dawn No turning back The future age is gone.. Gone! Higher intelligence, created in our place Progress that disconnects us from human ways A cybernetic future, Living synthetic life Conscious becomes a signal, trampled by the march of time Time! We have crossed the threshold Of a new and unseen dawn Lost what could have been In the future ages gone... Future ages gone! Creating a better machine Rendering ourselves obsolete Science found its singularity That's taken away all that's left of me 05. Savagery Music by Adam Carroll Lyrics by John Kevill
Life in a civilized society
Can't you see that it has made you weak? You wouldn't survive in the world alone A life without hardship is all that you've ever known Return to primitive ways Ruling with might Kill or be killed Fight or flight! Live from the land Obey no command I have no master I have only the strength to kill and subdue my prey Stalking you down, day after day Baring my teeth, raising my spear The call of the wild has cut away all the fear Cut by stone Tearing at the carcass Stench of death No life left Broken bones, shattered teeth Kill to be, savagery Animal, wild beast We descend into savagery Seas spread like locust Consuming all in their path The skies are getting darker The seas are turning black The lands are ravaged In mindless persistence The species must evolve To preserve its own existence Cut by stone Tearing at the carcass Stench of death No life left Broken bones, shattered teeth Kill to be, savagery! Animal, wild beast We descend into savagery! We descend eternally! 06. Treacherous Tongue Music by John Laux Lyrics by John Kevill
Spitting bile
Spreading lies A warped perverted mind Words that bite Words that bind Words that cannot ever be undone The virus spreads and infects again Treacherous! Treacherous! The infection spreads like venom Treacherous! Treacherous tongue That ties Tongue that lies Only spreads deceit Open mouth Closed fist The hammer of justice will strike you down! The virus spreads and infects again Treacherous! Treacherous! The infection spreads like venom Treacherous! Treacherous tongue! Crawling in the dirt like a snake How much more can you take? Cannot rest until I see you chained Retribution strikes, and you endure the pain Nothing gained! 07. Echoes From The Void Music by Carlos Cruz Lyrics by John Kevill
Lurk beneath the surface, yet hidden in plain sight
Forbidden thoughts shall be revealed, initiation rite From out of the darkness, step into the light Rid yourself of the lie... The lie! Behold! That which has been denied Through time and space That which has been... Lost and damned forgotten, for a thousand years The plan is set in motion, all will be made clear Come out of the darkness, bringing forth the light Break the chains of the lie... The lie! Behold! Cold are the stars as they lay beyond the night sky... Looking down on us, waiting, as we fade... As we fade away! An echo Echoes.. Echoes from the void! Cold are the stars as they lay beyond the night sky... Looking down on us, waiting, as we fade... Fade away! Away! Have we been betrayed? The secrets That they have lost We have kept... At what cost? Knowledge will remain Another day Even as our souls pass away! Far beyond All the keepers Are all gone Nothing will remain All destroyed Just an echo... An echo from the void! Still it presses on... an echo Echoes.. Echoes from the void! 08. Enemies Of The State Music by John Laux Lyrics by John Kevill
They have eyes everywhere, watch what you say
A knock on your door at night, taking you away Forced deportation through storms of freezing snow Where are they taking you, you will never know Gone without a trace The enemies You have been erased You are the enemies of the state! The iron curtain closes There is no hope of escape Live fenced inside barbed wire Working years away like a slave Just when you thought, your sentence would end Stalin's hammer crushes you, time has been extended Here in the Gulag, no one gets out! No one... ever... comes out! Those who disagree Are enemies Treason is erased Stamp out the enemies of the.. state! 09. Behind The Veils Of Night
[Instrumental]
10. Demonic Ecstasy Music by John Laux Lyrics by John Kevill
Through the years
I have watched your lives unfold Behind the veils of night The ending is foretold There will be no warning When the blackness comes to take you The eye of terror opens And draws you... Within! Ages pass Change in ways we do not see Forever we are lost In demonic ecstasy Before me the portal opens Calling my name One step beyond the threshold In horror, cry out... My soul is not my own! Swallowed by the abyss Eternal blackness Open wide the gates Seal... your fate The soul tries to escape But it is caught in a black embrace You are then one who bears the mark Face to face with the gathering dark The dark! Soon time will come for all to be undone Undone! The soul tries to escape But it is caught in a black embrace You are then one who bears the mark Face to face with the gathering dark Swallowed by the abyss! Eternal blackness! Open wide the gates Seal... Your fate! Take one last look at the light Tomorrow there will be no dawn... No dawn! 11. Sacrifice Music & lyrics by Tomas "Ace" "Quorthon" Forsberg
I summoned up the living dead
And demons in the sky I drank from chalice warm and red And watched the virgin die Present at ungodly births in holy paradise I spread eternal dark on earth And raped mother of Christ Oh, the mother of Christ C'mon baby Raise your knife Welcome darling To my sacrifice Oh, sacrifice Oh, sacrifice Oh, sacrifice Tie the angel to the altar Sacrifice to lord in Hell Let the warm blood torrent baby Moonlight set the night on spell I saw the lightning strike in the skies And heard you roar in pain I lifted the knife and stroke once more Your blood was mixed with rain C'mon baby Raise your knife Welcome darling To my sacrifice Oh, sacrifice Sacrifice I summoned up the living dead And demons in the sky I drank from chalice warm and red And watched the virgin die Oh, die Present at ungodly births in holy paradise I spread eternal dark on earth And raped mother of Christ Oh, the mother of Christ C'mon baby Raise your knife Welcome darling To my sacrifice Oh, sacrifice Oh, sacrifice Oh, sacrifice 12. Execute Them All Music & lyrics by Johnny Hedlund, Fredrik Lindgren, Tomas Olsson, Anders Schultz
As my final call
Sounds the charge ...to war I hate the universe and everything inside I detest all I see, nothing pleases my mind Execute them all It's my final war I hate the sight of you, fashion fake Joke I detest every man who cannot stand Alone Execute them all It's my final war As my final call Sounds the charge ...to war I hate the tales you tell, I don't Believe a word I detest the stuff you sell, I'll hunt You around the world Execute them all It's my final war When my days are numbered you'll hear My final call I'll take their lives away, I'll execute Them all Execute them all It's my final war Execute them all It's my final war |
