"For wide is the Gate and broad is the Road that leads to Destruction"
Matthew 7:13-14 Building to Crisis; a Retreat is no Option The Plan of Aggression is doomed from its Birth True to my Oath, I fight to my last Breath Then you will know that I shall not return Faces in Blood as the Tale is unfolded Surrender forbidden; last of my Fiend be killed The Noose is tightened, my Veins bleeding dry Oh, God of War; don't leave me here to die Will you leave me to let me die on my own? Steal my Thunder and lead me into the Unknown Left in the Lurch; the Tides are turning Temperature drops yet still I'm burning Disease and Despair; the Siege wearing on My noble Lord; tell me why was I born Stripped of my Rank; I have failed to conquer The Kittle will close; increasing Signs of Danger Starvation begins to reap my Mind and Soul Failed to assert my vile Authority Final Triumph, my finest Hour will come Aim to achieve Salvation from Above Enduring the Death March The long Winter Wait Bombing the Wasteland Converted to Emptiness Building a Firewall Intruders are drawing near Shelter behind the Faith In this eternal Tomb Sectarian Violence Stemming from Ignorance Teachings of Wickedness In this immoral Pool Controlling the Masses A System of Fear Dismissive of Evidence Taking on the infinite Regress Full Retreat into the Depths of Hell Baptized in Blood, there is no Wishing Well National Mourning; waging War of Attrition Tattered Collection of walking living Dead Shrunken Heads of the strangled Remains Disposal of Bodies; penetrating Reality Rain turns to Snow; I feel the final Blow No breaking out; I face eternal Cold How can I be scared of this Moment of Death? Staring into the narrow Gates of Emptiness How can I be scared of this Moment of Death? When I am staring into the narrow Gates of Emptiness Emptiness 02. Believers In The Mist Music by Allan Larsen Lyrics by Martin Meyer Mendelssohn Sparvath
Rising, growing in the Haze
Hiding in the Maze Fading in a Trench of Disbelief You say Death is an Illusion Acts of plain Exclusion Godless Slaves consigned to Paradise Launch into the Sacrilege Cloaked in Capes of Faith Lining up the Case against the Martyrs demonizing Infidels No Pressure to resist A Failure to exist They crumble yet persist The Believers in the Mist Derived from the early Days of Youth From the fearful Time of Truth Abolishing the Feeling of Solitude Engines of Narrow-mindedness Prostration of the Faithful The great Light of the Church is turning dim Launch into the Sacrilege Cloaked in Capes of Faith Lining up the Case against the Martyrs demonizing Infidels No Pressure to resist A Failure to exist They crumble yet persist The Believers in the Mist Deferring to the Dogmas for the Glory of your God Springing from the Womb of Man, these Horrors to justify Accepting life-destroying Myths as the never-ending Truth The Dangers of Rigidity entailing all the Blind Inserted by the Hand of God, a Devil in Disguise Bringing forth his Proclamations doomed to end the Times Into this Void, he brought us Hope and paved the Way for Grief Subverted by dogmatic Views, Deviation leads you straight to Hell Launch into the Sacrilege Cloaked in Capes of Faith Lining up the Case against the Martyrs demonizing Infidels No Pressure to resist A Failure to exist They crumble yet persist The Believers in the Mist 03. Threshold To Oblivion (My Wrecked Mind) Music & lyrics by Martin Meyer Mendelssohn Sparvath
Means to an End, that's what we are
Try to please them but they don't care Punch through the Halo of Make-belief Make or Break is the Root of it all Under the Pretence of Humanity We fight of Freedom, Sovereignty Heavy Casualties, there's no free Will Final Glory and Satisfaction Heavy Rain of red Tears turns my Road into Seas of Sludge, We're dancing on a hellish Minefield Corpses crawling forwards through the Mire Playing Tricks on my Desire And you know that we shall all burst into Flames Strain on me on the Verge of Demise Seraph of Triumph has abandoned me No Peace from Strangers, Hallmark of Death Launched Assault on my Confidence Batter my Way into the Fortress of Lies Determination increasing my Skill Join me on my notorious Campaign Feel my Power grow within the Hour Creating universal Grief for the Foe within us all We're grinding to a Halt in this Hellhole Yield to the Forces of the Damned Torches for the High Command And you know that we shall all burst into Flames Come and let me show you the Way into my wrecked Mind You will see my Ship on the Bottom of the restless Sea Bodies tear their Way through my Mind like in a Firestorm Fear is rising; Hope is fading as the Whirlwind breaks loose Heavy Rain of red Tears turns my Road into Seas of Sludge, We're dancing on a hellish Minefield Corpses crawling forwards through the Mire Playing Tricks on my Desire And you know that we shall all burst into Flames 04. Salvation Music & lyrics by Martin Meyer Mendelssohn Sparvath
Come and save me from Desolation
From this Circle of Hell Atmosphere of Cold and Bleakness Like a Flaw in my Eye Caught in the Act of deserting In this Wilderness Distant Shape of my own Life coming Beneath a Veil of Grief Sitting on the shady Sideline Watching Bigotry Manifest of utter Madness Exploiting Loyalty Misconceived by the flogging Masses By these deluded Sheep Mindless Slaughter of the Feeble Fulfilling God's Design Dying Hands to ring the Bell that tolls for all of us Sanctify the Ignorance for those who don't believe Created sick by the Divine into a wicked Cult Leading down the endless Path of Pretense Outside the Bounds of Pain Inside the Acid Rain Silently waiting for Death to occur At War with Humanity Sworn into Secrecy Seeking Salvation to shun Loneliness Gloating in Triumph in Front of the Masses Casting a Shadow on Generations to come Crippled by Years of sheer Assent and Denial Leaving a Hole in Morality Translating the Feeling of Awe into Hatred Path-breaking Holocaust; the Void is immense Perversion of Spirits, subservient Behavior Under the poisoned Clouds of Doctrines, we rot Dying Hands to ring the Bell that tolls for all of us Sanctify the Ignorance for those who don't believe Created sick by the Divine into a wicked Cult Leading down the endless Path of Pretense Outside the Bounds of Pain Inside the Acid Rain Silently waiting for Death to occur At War with Humanity Sworn into Secrecy Seeking Salvation to shun Loneliness |
