Anger seeds sown once in not buried past
Hatred grows
With the thoughts of a liberation
See my eyes and you shall see
They're deeper than the blackest sea
Emancipation - serenity to be received
Release me
My mind all serene
My consiousness relieved
This is the only confession that I need
Enemies of mine
You shall be condemned
Imprisoned spirit of hate
Released when you're dead
Dare me now
I'll feel relief when you're dead
Satisfaction, retribution
I shall smile when you're dead
How many saw the pain I'd feel
No one saw
What could not be for real
I laugh in the face of humanity
Every oppression shall be scorned
Without you my mind would be free
Or I wish it would be
For every day in my life
Another dream to come true
And so many things to fulfill
And so much life and pain
And remorse to kill
Pain can be so sweet
Pain can be the sincerest thing
But in my heart the hatreed grows
And crushes beauty viciously
As death can be so beautiful
But also insignificant
As in the most precious things
I writhe in disgust
(A reversed prism I am...)
My eyes gather colors
And form it into total darkness
Inverted, twisted - like me
As bright as the sun may shine
As black shines my mind
Enemies of mine
You shall be condemned
Imprisoned spirit of hate
Released when you're dead
Dare me nowl'l
I feel relief when you're dead
Satisfaction, retribution
What was meant to sleep
Is now awakening
In a second you crush
All that I've tried to rebuild
Insult to injury, time and time again
You play to the gallery
As you act the victim
Self-righteous, self-appointed
Yes I believe
That you believe you're God
So let those without sin
Be the first ones to be crucified
Then let it be known
That you're the one to pity
Instead of those who died
So hear my renunciation of faith
Through all my life
I have crawled on a leash
Never to follow my heart
Or become what I was born to be
A scornful smile
When I found my own way home
Forever criticized
When I failed to achieve your goals
Always too sure of my ground
But am I not
The very image of my God?
Never again shall I drop to my knees
My God owes me an apology
So let those without sin
Be the first ones to be crucified
Then let it be known
That you're the one to pity
Instead of those who died
Yes, let it be known!
That you're the one to pity
[Lead: Schalin/Allenmark]
Torment, hatred, calamity
I've strived to overcome, for years
A recollection, I would like to believe
As a faded water-mark
Is The only thing that remains
Instead of deep imprints of pain
Human brain, what a powerful device
Capacity we can't believe, can't conceieve
What's erased can always be retrieved
All the pain drained from my mind
In violent streams ran underground
Where it arrived it putrefied
Sewerages
Rotted for life
Sewerages
[Lead trade-off: Schalin, Allenmark x2]
Human brain, what a powerful device
Capacity we can't believe, can't conceive
What's erased will always be
Years have passed and rivers of hate
I have tried to dam
But the way you treated me
Made me who I am
My hands were clean
But you pissed upon my soul
Before I can be born again
I will have to explode
Vermin, bacteria, putrefaction
The sewege of the mind shall prevail
Because every cesspool needs an outflow
And if it should be blocked
the sewage finds new ways
Now the time has finally arrives
Erupted
Pipes are goping to blow
Get in the way and you'll be crushed
Drown and become one
With the sewage of the mind
All the pain drained from mind...
Under fire, we're at war!
Information is colliding
With our great intentions
And distracting our flow of energy
We are enslaved
By fear, rage, pain and jealousy
Incarnations of chaos
Rule our mind, kill our aspirations
Let's not fight ourselves!
But the entropy ruling our minds
It's a fight for our lives
A strife to take control of our perception
Fight!
Keep fighting the enemies within,
Fighting the entrop within
[Lead: Schalin]
Key to unlock the treasury:
Concentratrion undisturbed
State where body and mind unite
Time fades and we're filled with euphoria
Fight!
Keep fighting the enemies within,
Drawn by a sad melody
I enter this old theater
I walk through corridors
But for the music all is still
I reckon I'm late for the show
Strange to say there is no crowd
But enchanted by the sound
I start to walk down one of two aisles
But as I reach the stage
I find the orchestra motionless
Like frozen in their play
All covered up in cobwebs
Indicating the time that passed
All in their evening attire
Beautiful
Like an old monochrome photograph
Bows lie still on violins' strings
The sound comes no longer
From their instruments
It's but an echo between these walls
And has so been for years
Yet ever so strong
Their eyes focus in the direction
Where the conductor once was stood
He'd rule them from the podium
And they'd anxiously obey
Any gesture he would make
No one could in their wildest dreams
Imagine that he while he'd conduct
Would cast a spell and turn them into
Stone, statuesque, proud but sad
The conductor departed but left this dirge
To accompany their destiny
I panic as I realize
The podium was nobody else's place
But mine
Paralyzed by insight
I'm viewing my own life
All my hopes and dreams
All that could have been
Turned to stone
I feel like I'm about to drown
It feels like I have sunk too deep
The mask of water over me,
pushing me down
Has now become too burdensome
to overcome
I'm trying hard to see the sun
But from this angle
The surface reflects only
the bottom of the sea
At times, I feel I'd like to stop
Holding my breath and just exhale
And let the water fill my lungs
To drown is said to be
a pleasant way to die
Maybe if I just let go
Of my burden I'll eventually
Approach the surface
and drift downstream
And once again see
the fire of the sun
Again I try to see the sun
But from this angle
The surface reflects only
the bottom of the sea
Oxygen fails me but I hold my breath
I swim and try to reach the shore
Swim under water, maybe in vain
For I have almost lost my will to live
When I have lost my will to live
And my body is weak
Then carry me, please carry me
When my eyes are tired
Be my star
Shine for me
Reality, my one last escape
I can't hide deep inside myself
I close my eyes
Try to cover my ears
I'm obsessed
No peace to be found
Three churches with minarets
On three hills, far away
Every church has a bell
Piercing chime
Resonates in my head
Lead: Schalin
One for faith, holy faith
Roars like hell
One for hope, bloody hope
One for love
Tinking fuck
Optical delusions
Unheard sounds
Haunting me, why?
These symbols I can't understand
Or interpret
I open my eyes
To escape from this hell
Although reality bites
Reflection I can spare
Three windmills now appear
New visions but I don't care
Two in spin and one is still
Eyes now burn
Sound intensified
Ear drums blow
Delirious delirium!
Lead: Schalin
He never solved the riddle
Never tried
Cursed to die!
Lead: Allenmark
Never reached
The insight that I have
Led to his demise
So learn from this:
If you are a stormy sea
Hold the mill-sails
If your soul is ground
I prithee mark my words
Your soul torn apart
By the sound of the bells
Misted by visions
You will expire
Concentrate, gather strength
Don't let the chime
Get to you or your soul
If you're strong
No mill can grind your soul
Not even if you are
Desperate to be admired
But in the eyes of others, another clown
Spending and spoiling his energy
Forever lost in reverie
Joined the circus at seventeen
For many years, lived his dream
But on the outside where time passes by
The circus performer is still a child
"Look at me now, using torches of fire
Look! Higher than anyone else
I am the great juggler!"
But in the end
When the circus days are gone
Who would dare to depend
On some great juggler?
Circus performers will be turned down
Juggler or not, still a clown
Small is his crowd
Compared to the outside world
Feelings of being left out of it
Always grow
"Look at me now, using torches of fire
Look! Higher than anyone else
I am the great juggler!"
But in the end
When the circus days are gone
Who would dare to depend
Left by dawn
Determined mind
The final way out
My bridges were burned
One last path to justify life:
To follow this crazy dream
Heading for the woods
To places I had been before
But in my dreams
They were altered
I just had to see
But the deeper I walked
Confusion emerged
Paths unknown?
I was astray
And though it was day
The sun shone no more
But as I despaired
Certain to be lost
I suddenly stood
By a temple
The temple in my dreams
With a thousand steps
My journey was complete
The source os essence
Of which I had been foretold
Climbing up the stairs
Hewn in stone
Stained with generations' blood
Thorn, like poison snakes
Entangles me, severs my skin
Helped by the wind
At last at the top
A mysterious sight reaches my eyes
For on the very highest step
A gigantic mirror was placed
Unseen in my dream
I was dismayed
With fear I faced the mirror
And to my great surprise
My reflection:
The image of the devil
And behind:
At the very foot of the stairs
I could see clouds
And heaven from above
Through the mirror
I could see heaven's gate
Forever closed for me
All of a sudden
A stormwind came
And put the mirror in spin
Got hold of the thorn
Of the highest step
I see the mirror stop
Yet the wind blows
My image: I am Messiah
Hanging down the stairs
In the reflection a chasm
And the gate in front of me
Was the back of the gate to hell
I was sure to fall
A qyestion of seconds
But once again
The wind came to my help
And saved me from the flames
But trapped in the grasp of the wind
I was violently thrown
Towards the spinning mirror
And I got caught in the spin
New dimensions I saw
But I never saw the mirror again
My last way to redemption
Turned out to be a fatal delusion
I'm condemned
To eternal emptiness
Condemned to play roles
In a thousand worlds
I'm never to be myself again
Leads by Schalin
I am lost in the land
Of withering shadows
Seeking no truth
Finding depth in various things
Weak in their spirit
And shallow are their hearts
Fading away like flowers
Under the sun
And this frailty had to be shared
My true belief was to be declared
The holy man opened his heart
And he let me receive the blessing
Of his lord
Drink the blood, drink the blood
The wine is turned into the blood of Christ
No, I choose to spit on his face
Forever walk the unlighted ways
Died on the cross
Where's your kingdom now?
All your knowledge is worthless
All your efforts are in vain
Sanguinary
Blood-thirst in my nature
Puppets of Christ in consanguinity
But I cut the strings long ago
What does he think of now
When he lies slain upon his altar
Dripping with blood
With the cross stabbed through his chest
Just like he was stabbed in his back
By his blind faith
Chalice fall, let the bell toll!
Transform wine into blood of God
Naked - Unsheltered!
The spirit of Christ
Now spilled outside the holy grail
Soul tread
Now for everyone to see
Now facing stone
Woe to the holy men
Who taste the sacred wine
You lick the wounds of Christ
The one of blessed memory
Through this you make himm breathe
Though the candlelight is flickering
Relieving wind come sweep away
Devotion to his memory
One is the remedy
To let our souls fly free
One is the solution
To put all this to a final end
To end this misery
Let me spit into your face
And at the symbol of your feeble race
This is just what he would preach
His kingdom is now out of reach
Pale utopia's tragedy
I had a dream
That resembled of a dark past
An honorable ancestry
Of a time when weakness
Was no virtue more than prosperity
Awakening in cold sweat
Screaming with agony
Something must be done to end this pain
And one is the remedy
You are the clowns
You simple-minded misguided ones
In the name of God
In the name of insanity
Your ways are so pathetic
Your minds are so naive
You are the worm inside my veins
Blood boils under azure skies
A man astray, obsessed in his search
Exploring vast lands
Deserts of sand and stone
Now heading for the open sea
Where his dreams are at
And his mind is set free
The scornful sun burns, tears his skin
The salt breeze tears his open eyes
And the whirling sand will dry his throat
But the journey must go on
He found his call, he is now a slave
On the mission to find his soul
And eternity seems ever so deep
And with every wish
The distance seems to grow
And then at last
Somewhere by the horizon line
The ocean lies mighty, calm and wide
And just when all his strength was gone
And all his hope was lost
His will was strong
And all that remained but his torn limbs
Covered by dust
Reaching for the distant shore
He raises to his feet but falls
When his feet are sore
A painful effort like a grain of sand
Malicious god gives him a hand
A hand that beats him to the ground
And the cry for help echoes
Without a sound
Out of reach are all the visions
About his mind set free
The sun laughs as he kneels Before his destiny
When ages of burning energy
Flows through a peerless body
And you experience strength
Far beyond what you would never know
Is when you realize that what counts
In the end is the journey itself
So with a smile let your struggle in pain
Be crowned by death
An eternity in the moment
Is when silence screams with emptiness
And when I felt relief
Was when the tide washed away
Sentenced to a life after death in pains
I will not be
As the book of lies suggests
Its basis are unworthy and twisted
By the holy men
Death is older
So are the dimensions
Onto which we shall travel
True servants will be rewarded
As they follow their master's will
Disregarded of to whom
They devote their lives
I shall not listen to the holy lord
If he calls my name
Trying to pull me towards his kingdom
I will choose to die by my own hand
The promised failed
The one of forgiving the unfaithful
Let us stay inside our walls
Sheltered from the holy lies
True servants will be rewarded
As they follow their master's will
This is what we learned
This is what I preach
Eager to view the other side
When the Lord calls my name
Then what is my destiny
What will my reward be
Vast lands: I will be a shadow king
Or infernal gates
With its hidden pleasures to reveal
But what is said
Should never be regarded
As that I follow Him personified
He is merely an expression
For the force that I indulge
The strongest power above all
My truest emotions
My only friend and all I have
To fill my emptiness
To make me come true
Reward in advance
Lies in self-fulfillment
I levitate by seving only myself
To rise above all
I tread the souls of the weak
Then what is to be awaited
Of this we do not now
The only certainty
True servants will ne rewarded
As they follow their master's will
And I follow my own
And with reward in advance I levitate
We struggle towards the end
Serving the one to be served
Achieving what has to be achieved
Collapsing are the walls
that used to protect me
Ground under my feet cracks
My universe is imploding
Since my star died
Or was it me that ceased to burn?
A black hole
Is what's left of my world
Now crushed
Solid, as compressed
A chaos attracting chaos
I run but can not flee
I carry this core inside of me
[Lead: Allenmark]
Under the debris
There's still life but for how long?
I Hear no rescue squads
They can't hear my silent screams
Or does this have to be;
I deserve to die?
Mi9s-grown fate can't be stopped
It's harvest-time
And I did invite The Reaper
To help me with the crop
I used to be an observing satellite
Sent here without a task
Collecting images
That I'd never supply
When a lost satellite
crashes and burns
No one cries
We only know our own world
And can't do otherwise
I blame no one
But wish that I, on this ship
Had dared to believe
The navigator has always been me
Under the debris
There's still life but for how long?
I hear no rescue squads
"God created man
in his own image"
But ever since
the fall of man
Man is but a sinner
who must do penance
That is what
God's servants say
A true believer
was hit by misfortune
Although he had ;ed
a sinless life
"Can this be the will
of an almighty god?"
Clouded skies
are reflecting
his state of mind
Storm rages above him
in the dead of night
But also in his heart
His strength and will
have failed him
And he's beginning
to doubt
Those were even
features of
a higher might
Inside
he feels emptiness
Might reflect
a void in heaven
And the absence of God
Devoid of content
is the word of God
Serves no purpose
in conformity
with his life
As all prosperity
has been washed away
And no support
is to be accounted for
from the "good" souls
He feels named
and alone
as there' no one
to answer his prayers
No angels,
no intervention divine
Would save him
should he fall
All hope is lost but now
he dares not believe
Or live in the lie
that used to be his shield
If the meaning of life;
To honor
and live for God
Proves to be a lie
What's there to live for?
I deny
that there ever was a god
Or a meaning of life
other than reproduction
The rest is up
to each and everyone of us
To seek or create
Scourge
of the philosopher
Can there be a god
if this world is a failure?
The problem is old
but yet to be solved
So if there ever
was a god
Her's either dead,
powerless, or a sadist
Only thing
to know for sure
He's unworthy
I realize as I awake
Life's to be taken to a new level
Belief is not the way
Dogma will dispirit your soul
The only road to mastery of life
Is to determine its extremity
When it shall expire
Lead: Shalin
Choosing victim is easy
Enemies are first in line
You are the sworn
Targets for my crime
Expectations are growing fast
Stronger as I plan
Life's to get new dimensions
Mercy denied, I celebrate
Only road to mastery
Determine life's extremity
Someone's gonna die
Moment of death I release the blood
Awaiting thrills but I'm still cold
Instead of the power I'd possess
Reinjected emptiness
A belief in something
That couldn't fulfill my needs
I feel nausea
With myself, not with my deeds
So I'm back where I begun
But the only way out is another one
Lead: Schalin
Tired, confused, exhausted
I stab the dagger to my chest
My strength is not enough
Enough to penetrate
Pitiful I am
And despite the pain
Laughter from my throat
I just can't restrain
I vomit, I laugh, I suffocate
Ironic no one can deny
Beside my victim I laugh to death
Tempted to believe?
Even I, in my solitude
Cried for help and wished for
That someone would be there for me
Better grieved than fooled
And I'm prepared to accept my suffering
To live with pain
Is the price for a life in truth
Me being the only lord
I'm the one who can forgive
And the only one to create
A future worth believing in
But I live a bitter life in truth
And curse its powerless God
(Lead: Schalin)
(Lead: Allenmark, Schalin)
I can deeply regret
My clarity of vision
Life had been much easier
To live, getting high on faith
Get a reason to live
Have a blind faith in the future
Forever stoned
Forever blessed in cowardice
Me being the only lord
I'm the only one who can forgive
Better grieved than fooled
So I live a bitter life in truth
"Again I offer you my life
Lay down my heart at your feet
But if you accept this offering
Some obligations will have to be fulfilled
Remember to worship no other deity
Leave your earth's steady ground
Pledge allegiance to my gravity
To Mother Venus be forever bound"
Three-legged amphibian with coin in mouth
Save me from this wicked dream
Any kind of magic or miracle
I welcome to redeem my being
"You must promise not to invoke the rain!
Through my walls detect just inaudible storms
Even before they are gathering"
Her thoughts have been heard in my words
Now the ivory goddess
Is sitting small on my table
Offering me this heart of clay
It took too long time to decipher their message
Soft heart was trampled in the mud
Storm crushed the ark
Only wreckage to hold on to in the floo

Three-legged amphibian with coin in mouth

[Final leads by Schalin]
Any kind of magic or miracle
All was settled from the start
Immaculate and pure
I invited chaos to stain, defile
And purity was no more
Demise of the crown, hereditary prince
I stand by the gate of what is not
The castle now has turned
to a hole in the ground
Free fall
Bad gods glare at me
From the horizon line
These gods are for real
But maybe not omniscient creators
I live in a fantasy
And when I dream, let me dream
And never wake me up again
Choke on guilt
Near death experience
And I can not see
The light at the end of the tunnel
Al that was is again
Those I let down have forgiven me
Once more they have faith in me
All I was I am again
Reborn, I am a child
It's but a dream and I hate myself
All was settled from the start...
There's a future looking bright
There's hope, I've got the strength
I've go a life
And a talent for irony
All is dead
All is over
Bury me under a stone
Manifestations of eternal spirits
Confused souls of murdered people
Infesting our bodies
Yet so bizarre
You dedicate your lives to exorcism
Indeed, you're the chosen elite
Of this universe
A vicious and dangerous cult
Thrives by exploiting its victims
Enslaved by mind control techniques
And with a mission to sweep aside opposition
You wish to achieve total freedom
Freed from aberrations
But the delusional contents
Of the subconscious mind
Are instead brought to the surface
And presented to you as truth
So your state of "total freedom"
Is nothing but a state of mass paranoia
A vicious and dangerous cult
Thrives by exploiting its victims
Enslaved by mind control techniques
Downward spiral into madness
Enslaved by mind control techniques
Bounds of the kingdom divine
From the horizons of God
The angel beholds our world in flames
And the crowds who rejoice
In both pleasure and pain
Her heart is filled with tears
Heavy as wings of the raven dark
For her father the lod forbade her
To taste the apple
That fell to the ground
For all the pleasures of heaven are shallow
Though eternal
I would trade this for a day
Among the mortals
For just a day
I would sacrifice all that was given to me
My whitest wings, my faith
And my virginity, so take my soul
Blacken my wings and let the gates
of light be forever closed
Mortals - open your arms
And greet me with what never was
Given to me
Initiate me into all that was
Hidden from me
My hunger is insatiable, my wish for fire
Is deeper than the skies
And like with fallen angels we will ruin
All that is trying to hold us back
Virgin maidens are to be engaged
In the obligations to those of the damned
And the angel prayed
To ascend in our world
As she was given to the flames
For we are not the children of God
And we aim not at the kingdom high
All that is divine is to be dead
And all that ever was is in decline
For shallow are the pleasures of God
And I aim not at the kingdom high
"So give me pain
Teach me to know myself again
For self-denial is the norm
On which all my thoughts
And indentity was formed
So show me pain
Fulfill all my dreams
That have been veiled in vain
For my blood and my veins are of sin
Diagrams, blueprints, sketches are drawn
Infinite calculations so accurate
Lines, circles, angles, images are linked
To perfection be combined!
Feverish movements to fulfill the plan
Frantic operation, sweat breaks on your brow
Foundations of a new world are soon to be seen
As soon as the old one has been crushed
Castles, built in the air
Powered by merely strength fo will
Bulldozers follow pulling down machines
Any remnant of the obsolete
Is soon to be crushed into dust
A new civilization is to be built upon
The steaming tombs of forefathers
Silent, choked, they are meant to be
In their coffins for eternity
Castles, built on sand
[Lead: Allenmark, Schalin]
Oh you dream, oh your dream!
Valid are no scientific rules
The undead will take revenge
Coffins will arise, buildings fall to the ground
The new vilization is now to decay
Blueprints to scorn your defeat will remain
Learn that inside is where to excavate
Intimidate me?
No use, you can't harm me
I have returned for everyone to see
No time for empty threats
Know the new me
Unleash your fear, your hate
Unhurt I will be
Surrounded I am
But lay down your arms and save your hate
Immaterial being
I'm no one you incarcerate
I'm forever free
Unbound by the realm of flesh
You can't kill me
Can't kill what's already dead
I died long ago
Last ship that was passing by
Vanished where the sea meets the sky
You chose not to hear my screams
Turned away, escaped into your dreams
My hands tried to get a grip
To the very end
Saved my last breath for a downwards trip
Sank into the ocean
Was chained to the bottom with moral
All my limbs were putrified
My body's dead, my wraith's alive
So I'm back to intervene
Claim revenge
Blood is to be seen
Nothing to lose
No pain, no infliction
No fear reigns inside my head
Searching everywhere
But always in the wrong places
For something
Anything to make me whole
These open wounds don't seem to heal
Something is missing
Probably just the love for myself
I'm trying to compensate it with yours
So I'm just fucking you over
There's no way to win this heart of mine
Cold heart forged in hell
My hell
Against my will
The more I give the less I have left
My body is on fire but my heart is cold
Company is just physical
Inside I'm alone
Take me, I'm all yours, yours and yours!
I give it all
My affection, my body, my services
Exclusively, but just for a while
To put it simple:
I can be The One, you can only be one
No matter how hard I try
It's been so long since I cared
I've almost forgotten how it feels
Cold heart forged in hell
My hell
Against my will
Inside I'm always alone
Standing in a pool of blood
Amnesia
My beloved ones in piles
Injustice: I'm alive
Blood on my hands
Now I remember their faces
Horrified, in a moment of despair
So you want to be saved?
Then get out of my way
Because your killer
Can never be your Christ
And I bring nothing
But complete demise
So get out of here
I will only bring you down
Save yourself, I can't help
Because I just can't help myself
Blood on my hands
I can imagine your face
Horrified, in a moment
Because your killer
Can never be your Christ
And I bring nothing
Let's walk in a line
Let's do what the person in front of us does
Believ in what he believes
Let's forget our identity
So that we can assume no responsibility
For our lives
And the choices that we make
Or never make
Let us become one
With the bloodless crowds
Consequently, let us throw away our lives
[Q:] "Where are you leading me?"
[A:] "Where are you leading me?"
The leader you follow is a follower too
In a round dance gone astray!
There's no beginning and there is no end to it
Join the round dance to the song of apathy
(Not fully awake... sleepwalk hand in hand)
You could have been a god
But we are keeping each other in place
Cling to the hand in front of us
To the submissive we submit
And we assume no responsibility
For our lives
And the choices that we make
Or never make
Let us become on...
Your future os dpp,ed
If you only do what you're expected to
Depart from the beaten track
Maybe the blind will see
But follow neither you nor me
They'll refuse to dance to the song of apathy
So, where are you leading me?
A call to take your hand
For I'm one with the dark
How dare you come for me
And again you must die
So ancient curse known to me
Behold the powers I unleash
Upon your throne
Know my words, feel my hate descend
Lord of light
I will swarm against you now
Gods perverse
Wickeds at my side
Misery
Thorns to lance your every word
Nazarene
Now I crown you king in pain
Eternal winter, societies drown
To freeze the rapture bring heavens down
Eternal winter, shadows from far
A few chosen wander under the stars
The unworthy god's creation must be
Forever swept away
A new world order must be
Created by man
Men of will, men of depth
And strength in their hearts
Shall ascend above all
A dawning world fell into decay
Due to mental destruction
Caused by poisonous thoughts
Forced upon us
Let us build upon the past
And indulge wisdom far beyond God
Let forever our roads diverge
We shall leave the era of historical fraud
We learned from the past
What's good in a sense may be
Devastating wrong
Self-denial tells the weak from the strong
Dethrone the hypocrites
And crown our spirit in blood and gold
Never again
Shall the twisted word be told
And for those who try to escape
From the scene
And claim their faith in the Nazarene
Hunted you shall be like the sun
When winter comes
And the hunt has begun
We learned from our past
That what is good in a sense may be
Devastating wrong
Self-denial tells the weak from the strong
Men of will, men of strength
And depth in their hearts
Shall ascend above all
The blessing may not come from the sky
Snow may not fall in an everlasting night
Dream, dream of what ways there will be
Still we hail the winter as
A symbol for the time
When Jehovah's kingdom dies
And if some souls of strength
Would survive though repeatedly
Ripped and torn
We shall tread upon these unfortunate
Despise the lie!
What makes you strong is what I hate
The plague that heals your wounds
All you believe makes you sane, strong,
Immune
Truth would destroy you
You would wish for death
If you saw what I see
And you would die, but I would see
You while you would fall
Before me
Fall before me
Soon you will be
Under my feet
And left behind like all conquered lies
If you could cleanse your soul
And leave deception far behind
We would never be equal
Because free I stand, rid of lies
But without lies you would be no more
I do not envy you
I do not want what you have got
I only wish to see you die
By your own hand
Deprived of all that made you live
Tough luck, sad but true
Your vision: a reflection of you
Without substance
No reason
Lead: Schalin
Yes, I want to spread the truth
To all of you who were seeking truth
But reality behind your veils
Is far beyond your frame of mind
Drained of what you thought was life
You would be like an empty shell
Hollow, used and thrown away
Fragile as crystal in my hand
Lead: Schalin
Broken shell, empty and small
What will become of you?
Your life is worth less
Than sand under my feet
Leave deception far behind!
We will never be equal
Because free I stand, rid of lies
But without lies you'd be no more
Can I ever make you see
Or even think like me?
No, you will always feel
Safe like the child
Not knowing his father won't be back
For fire: burn with me
Know me deep inside
For truth: see what I see
Oh how I dream
Pictures of the ancient times
The executioner awaits on the stage
In the eys of the mob
Through which the convicted
Are dragged, scorned
And spat upon
Sinners, soon to confront their fate
Excitement in the air
Lost medieval times?
Former ideals shall be retrieved!
Like me into this body reborn
Lead: Schalin
Judge, executioner, all-in-one
I am the chosen one
Justice to be done
Sentenced, no wait
No wait, decapitate
The victim of my hate
Lead: Schalin, Allenmark
My name shall be God
Lord of heaven, earthly hell
And whatever is in between
I reign in my kingdom of death
I judge the living
And the soon to be dead
Sentenced, no wait
No wait, decapitate
The victim of my hate
Lead this lost world through this maze
Refined are my ways
I'm Messiah
Manacled into submission
You've let go of control
The rules are mine in this game of ours
Face down, don't look at me!
All you feel is my smell
And the steel impossible to wear out
I'm your god, your heaven and hell
Know me, your master
Learn my rules by trial and error
What is accepted
And for what you will be corrected
Disobedience pays
Now submit to my will!
I am mercy, I am pain
Your sovereign, your carer and cane
Let go of all your guilt
I forgive you, my slave
The sound of your cured defiance
Liberates the both of us
Know me, your master
Learn my rules by trial and error
What is accepted
And for what you will be corrected
Disobedience pays
Lessons in obedience
Cures your unbridled behavior
Disobedience pays
A moment of absolute power
Rain falls on my sunny memories
In this trampled heart of mine
I feel sick and my knuckles bleed
I was sold by the goddess
Whom I'd worship and adore
But the price was mine to pay
Left burning at the stake
With hands tied
And the battle raging within
Whore
I worshiped you for long and prayed
For a quick death of my heart
Before the fire would untie my hands
Yet at the same time
For long, I would dream of blood
And that the blood on my knuckles
Too long on the throne, no resistance
You try to own me, possess my mind
Believing you can control my existence
Indoctrination, brainwash by lies
A nation I am
Sovereignty belongs to me
Deep inside infantry
Gather for attack
Prepare for war
All armies unite for the battle
I'm in command
We march to the front
To recapture our land
Attack/Insurrection
Nothing may stand in our path
No prisoners shall we take
Annihilate
No enemy shall ever rise again
Nightfall
And twilight is followed by stillness of death
Count your dead
I let all grievance be branded
Into your mind
Lead: Schalin, Allenmark
Gather hate, dominate
Enemies brought to account
If we shall meet any life:
Exterminate, eradicate!
No allowances we make
We've slain your nation:
Leveled with the ground
Lesson you have learned
Antagonists kneel or burn
We claim the highest throne
Our name is legion
The future is ours
Did you ever feel
it's like you're hanging over an abyss
Your hands are tied,
you can't break loose
You're still hanging
only because your teeth
Have grasped the outermost twig of life
The only that keeps you from falling
Is that you keep your teeth clenched
Your body can struggle
But you just can't scream
You know you'd be crushed
Hitting the floor of reality
You suffer on and feel
Soon you're about to give in
Do you assume a reality
Existing without our perception
I don't believe it is so
The notion of reality is just a conception
Created by senses and mind
Leaving the spirits behind
If you view reality
As existing without the persistence
of minds
Then keeping teeth clenched
may be what is right
But if reality is created by you
Realize
This image can also be modified
I'm speaking of bringing the ground
Closer to your feet
Reducing the distance between
You and reality perceived
Let go and land in this image
of your consciousness
Ready to reconstruct
[Lead: Allenmark]
Deep inside a black heart
A mourning shadow grows
Wolves in their chains growl
Moaning at the azure skies
Dreaming of a dark past
When the strong would reign in savagery
Let us burn our Christian ties
Let us arise again
Let the heavens hate!
Let us chant in blasphemy
Let us sing our heathen hymns
Join me in unholy dance
Let the heavens hate
Under the calm rages a mighty storm
My oceans are waiting to break free
God take thy face away from me
My oceans are
Thrown against the walls I did not choose
And the tide is the pulse
Of my bleeding heart
Soon to drown the land
Of the lord of light
...and the depth of the sea remains
Skies shall break, angels shall fall
Tumbling into swirling dust
Glaring teeth, fastidious tongue
Wolves unleashed hail the new time to come
My heart overflows
Pulsating with the pulse of the moon
And my oceans will crush their walls
Now waiting to break free
God take thy face away from me
Deep inside my black heart
A mourning shadow grows
Wolves in their chains growl
Moaning at the azure skies
Dreaming of our dark past
When the strong would reign in savagery
Let us burn our Christian ties
Let us burn again
Let the heavens hate!
Let us gather our thoughts
Let us use our strength in mind
Join me in the ritual
My powers are running low
My strength is about to die
My soul needs to be fortified
Drain of blood
Powers' flood
How divine
I feel your heart beat next to mine
My soothing hand along your spine
The way to end my inner strife
Goes through your blood
I need your life
I admit my mind is sick
Obviously my strength's anemic
Your death is the antidote
Now your blood runs down my throat
Drained of blood
Rivers flood
How divine
Another heart beats next to mine
My soothing hand along her spine
The way to end my inner strife
Goes through her blood
I need her life
This last injection
Exceeds all expectations
Lead: Schalin
Once again my rivers flood
A haunting ghoul
I am the demon who rapes your soul
Raping your mind I take control
I am the one visiting your dream
I am the one with the vilest scheme
I see you in your dreams every night
I make your body convulse in fright
Twisting your hands to masturbate
With sinful thoughts I thee saturate
Bride of the beast groom I create
I soak the rag in chloroform
You breathe the mighty winds of the storm
As soon as you're anaesthetized
I do everything I've fantasized
This never was a dream
But you'll never realize
Don't be afraid, you will not die
It's the time of the day when I lay down to rest
To impressions of the day digest
But thoughts of my existence emrge
Who am I and why am I?
My consciousness can't be purged
Until a soothing breeze is putting me to sleep
I fall through endless depths
My dreams awake, they're taking over
Take me on a journey within
Lead: Schalin
I see myself and I see my world
I meet people from my past
But can't remember where they're from
They stare at me with hollow eyes
Still disappointment therein lies
I see nations' birth and death
One thousand human lives
Begin and end
I see new religions are born
And they fall into oblivion
I witness the births of worlds
And the old ones wither away
New universes are created in storms of fire
The old ones are crushed inside black holes
I see my old life fading away
And a new one is about to begin
I see water spring
From the well of truth
People congregate
With will to eternal wisdom obtain
Those with false hearts
That taste the water change form
To trembling vile creatures with their insides out
The others are reborn as gods
At the very back of the swarming crowds
I see my tense face, I'm eager with fear
I desire to know but I fear the same fate
The one of others that I just beheld
When monsters with false hearts have expired
And the new gods are sent to conquer the world
As the last one I stand alone by the well
With fear I put out my hands
To finally taste the truth about me
Lead: Schalin
With uncertainty I awake from my dream
What would have happened and who am I?
I seek but can not find the well of truth
And struggle therefor through my life
With fear and eagerness
Do you wanna say goodbye to your best friend, your buddy?
Never wanted to slap your girl, she's your money
I said love, only love
You spread your wings and you fly with the best
it's so bloody, it's so bloody
Love, whoa love, you wanna survive
Love, whoa love, you wanna survive
Take your time, take your hate out
I can tell you, it's a lady's game
You take a life of shit
oh man, you almost went insane
Love, only love
No one cares, and you lie to yourself
It's the wrong place, it's the wrong face
Love, whoa love, you wanna survive
Love, whoa love, you wanna survive
Love, only love
You spread your wings, and you fly with the best
It's so bloody, it's so bloody
Love, whoa love, you wanna survive
Red like the river
Blue like the eyes of the woman who loves you
Red like the river
Blue like the eyes of the woman who hates you
Too many listen for love
Too many listen for hate
Too many listen for someone who wants to be something, someday
I'm gonna tell you something, Or nothing, yeah babe
I'm gonna stick it to someone, or something
I can't use that line
I can't use that line
I can't use that line
Well I was born, I woke up in a hurricane
Too many lights come through than what I'm really used to
You're always drinkin the hard line
you're only laughing at that fuckin line
You've never taken the time to go, oh baby
Well I could get used to
Get used to
Get used to
Get used to
oh baby, well I could get used to
And you were gone, like I've never really seen
You went through a rise, now we bring you to your knees
I hope you know what you came for
You only laughing at the locked door
You've never taken the time to go
Oh baby, well I could get used to
Get used to
Get used to
Get used to
baby, well I could get used to
Get used to
Get used to
Get used to
baby, well I could get used to
You're gone, without a brain, I said, you're gone
You, still get used to...
And you should've told me
you had a nervous fuckin break down
And you should've said to me
you were going down
And I should've told you

And you should've told me

And there's a flip side to that coin

well is there? Is there?
And you should've told me

And there's a flip side to that coin

Get in, the villain stole your true love
And the room, the room, the room that he gave you his hand
and bottle, the bottle he used was just a little heavier, man
Never again, never again, will you refuse this face
Smoking, smoke in his eyes and your love was like, gold
and riding, you thought of riding home alone
and the loop, the loop, the loop that he gave you was planned
and bottle, the bottle he used was just a little heavier, man

Too many nights I said

When you cry yourself to sleep

And you are the answer
to your own secrets in your head
so, so, so, so fuckin sad
Too many nights I said
too many love the two ton bed
And you cried yourself to sleep
'cause your love is always scared
And you are the answer
to your own secrets in your head
Nothing, is gonna survive
And her thing, always alive
Despite on the edge
Well it'll make you cry
It's never ending
and never surrendering
Nothing, is gonna roll
and her thing, out of control
And shame, on the underdog
and who's to blame,
About the other day?
It's never ending
and never surrendering
Nothing, is gonna survive
And nothing, always alive
Despite on the edge
Well it'll make you cry
And who's to blame
about the other day?
It's never ending
and never surrendering
Her end, something new
And nothing, all but you
And the life you want to live
And the life you want to live
When she said the bones

Blast thru the front
Door - High
