[Instrumental]
Ease yourself on down
And if you're bound and frowned
You better put it on down
'Cause 4am, gonna hit it again
Leaving dollar bills on the buffalo hills
The moon's eye is frozen shut
These vacant lanes unknown, uncut
Shredded up and sold for seed
Another tribute sent to a backwards breed
Hear those buzzards flap their heaps
Up above where skies are cheap
For pioneers with chandeliers
Darkened arks in diamond ears
Through those rusty windows
Traffics shoot like venom
Static addicts
Causing us to fly like sticks
Fumes of flags and endless wicks
INFERNO!
Habitrails of garbage pails
I search and strip my stale grails
And when it's time to strike the blues
I gotta let my jive and jack-ass fuse
This pollution is electrocution
Riffs and rags, no resolution
My wagon limps a miser's pace
On borrowed fuels of lice and lace
Hail to the mother man
Can't stand the soul can
Cold sweat, tiger tan
Sold my gold and left this land
Vaccination, cancellation
Tuning in to the two-bit station
Alkaline batteries shot
Summer's all tied
In the hangman's knot
One hundred lives in just one night
The fire took them all
A revolution from inside
Damned to rule our souls
From far away i heard them scream
I saw them burned alive
No one could flee, he came too fast
Impossible conception lies the...
Inferno, Inferno
All their dreams, all their hopes
All that they obey
All despotic fantasies
Erased in just one day
From far away i seen them die
So many burned alive
Damned from our society
Impossible conception lies the...
Inferno, Inferno
Suddennly it really happened
Suddenly it comes to life
The Inferno!
Inferno, Inferno
Suddennly it really happened
Suddenly it comes to life
[1.]
Inserted soul denied
No choice but staying alive
Left hand path laughter
Teh grin strenghts up my heartbeat
So wehere am I to turn
Here where the daylight burns
I'm left for living pain
I've been denied the right to die
[C.]
I feed of sickening
You pain unpuzzles the inferno
I am the labyrinth
My shadow brings you to your death
[2.]
I'm placed to walk this earth
I'm sent to stop your birth
tillborn miscarriage
I'm the reason
I'm to blame
I Spread my blackened wings
Our city's doomed in war
Death is my employer
Abomination non-divine
[Repeat C.]
[3.]
So if you see me look away
Or never again you will see the light of day
The bringer of torture
The bringer of pain
never to die
but always bloodstained
Bloodstained
[4.]
This earth I walk alone
Trapped in the twilight zone
Murder and sickness
Like a hunter, hunting for no prey
I Spread my blackened wings
Our city's doomed in war
Death is my employer
Abomination non-divine
[Repeat C. (X2)]

Music & Lyrics: R. Olson
Severe winds comes in from the east, the air burns in the throat
Humans fall in clouds of steam as the warm skin catches fire
Inferno
The skin breaks up in open wounds, the hair burns on their
scalps a suffocating steaming skin eats into the flesh
Inferno
Dying children lies vomiting blood
Pathetic, wounded, in pain
The withers in the scorching flames
Bleeding, crying in vain
Bleeding
Inferno - Human flames
Inferno - Acid winds
Inferno - Steaming skin
Inferno - The soil shall be drenched in blood
Frustration into relief as the nerves are burnt apart
The pain shall cease as the bloodstains grow
Upon the lifeless ground
Inferno - Human flames
Inferno - Acid winds
Inferno - Steaming skin
The clouds look black tonight
My will to redeem in spite
My thoughts look pitchblack tonight
To follow me on a journey inside
To climb down all the stairs where
The bad is divided from the good
And the crime of being me
Makes me burn forever
Set it all in flames
If this is heaven no angels sing
The clouds look black tonight
As I kill my leader, I kill my shadow
And I will be suffering
Until I see where I'm wrong, if I am wrong
If there is no right, there is no wrong
To be stuck in the middle is even worse
Your inferno isn't worse than mine
You tell me you know what I feel
Stop using me as an excuse for being you
When I look up I see your grin
The satisfaction of kicking me down
Set it all in flames
If this is heaven no angels sing
The clouds look black tonight
If this is hell no fire burns
Set it all in flames
If this is heaven no angels sing
My thoughts look black tonight
music - Deszo, lyrics - Deszo
solo - Ben, Dave
Poles lie twisted in the ruins of Warsaw's shattered line
The Wermacht's strenth has left it's mark with lightening speed and power
The West responds uneasily to face another war
The Axis lords plan their assaults for their territory gains
From frozen arctie wastes the battle rages in the in it's fury
To blazing desert sands the land is overrun with blood
On land and sea in the air the swords of nations clash
The West is stabbed a vicious blow and writhes in agony
Blitzkrieg
solo - Dave, Ben
Continental Europe falls under Axis occupation
But England stands infallible despite a constant rain of fire
The Deutsch luftwaffe fail as the RAF stands strong
So the Fuhrer's eyes look to the east to Russia endless plains
solo - Dave, Ben, Dave, Ben
The Russians lines collapse as panzers smash the Easten Front
But far too large a battlefields ends all hopes for victory
Outmatched by vicious weather, Moscow's walls remain secure
And an army's strength and might lie dead and frozen in the snow
I have lost my way into the wood
Where am I tonight?
Fear inside, I'm lost and so alone
Where will I go?
I have reached a hill and tried to climb
Now the dawn has come
But a Wolf is standing in my way
Won't let me go
Are you real, or nothing but a ghost?
Save me from the Wolf!
|Follow me|, he says, |And you will see what's beyond
life|
On the Hill of Dawn I climb behind him
He's the guide and master
Now in front of us there is a door
Where will it lead?
[Spoken Bridge:]
Per me si va nella citta dolente,
Per me si va nell'etterno dolore,
Per me si va tra la perduta gente.
Dinanzi a me non fuor cose create
Se non etterne, e io etterna duro.
Lasciate ogni speranza, o voi ch'entrate.
[Chorus:]
Virgil
Guide me through this world
Where spirits cry
Keep me safe and tell me how
To live my life
your love inferno
defines your anger
the way you are
my love inferno
angelic candle, gelignite
i'll try to cease the burning of you
how can i enjoy your inferno?
inferno, could it be eternal?
i'll refuse your love
endless inferno
reveals your sorrow
for every rage
i'll try to break
Emptiness around me
There's nothing I can hear
But voices keep on calling
While I'm drifting far away
Watch my eyes are speaking
Gazing like insane
If my throat could only tell you
Hallowed be my name
But my heart's still beating
I'm still living with the fear
That vision could be real
I close my eyes
Softly sinking into dawn
Open my mind
To a world I've never known
I see your cities crumble
Watch your houses burn
Assassinated faith and hope
Never will return
Chaos, death, disorder
Murder everywhere
Meet your children's ashes in the darkness of despair
Fire spitting serpents
Across the blood red skies
Creatures have mutated
To the most aggressive kind
Massive evolution
Ends the last decade
Expurgitates a culture
And the world will be erased
I cannot breathe
This is the funeral of mankind that I see
I cannot speak
Further into the deep
I'm drowning in fear
I'm drowning in real
But my heart's still beating
I'm still living with the fear
That this is not a dream
I'm drowning in real
"Virgil, are you a shade or a man?
Shade am I, that once was man" (from Dante's Inferno)
Guitar Solo: J.J.Angel
Vergelius (Vergelius be my guide) will guide you (You all )
beyond the gates of Hell
You'll join eternal darkness
You'll see the souls that died in sin (Like yourself)
your eyes will burn eternally
"Virgil, are you a shade or a man?" (from Dante's Inferno)
Show me the place where I'll be damned
I have never seen Hell
Vergelius leads me hand in hand
stumbling step by step
Down to the place where I'll be damned
Charon ferries souls
on lurid waters
that darken on the way
for those who fell from grace
"The gates of Hell are open wide
I hear the spirits' cry in the dawnless everlasting night
Justice divine (This is the place of doom)
has weigh'd the doom is clear (Sighs and wailings loud)
all hope renounce ye lost who enter here" (from Dante's Inferno)
"Virgil, embark with me on Charon's boat" (from Dante's Inferno)
Show me the place where I'll be damned
I have never seen Hell
Vergelius leads me hand in hand
stumbling step by step
Down to the place where I'll be damned
Charon ferries souls
on lurid waters
that darken on the way
for those who fell from grace
[Chorus x2: CUTS]
Dan-e-o, making it hot like Los Angeles
Give me a mic son, burning tracks long before downloading was possible!
Welcome to what's best defined as my rhyme show
That petrifies guys with intensified flows
I testify God set the vibe in my soul
So inspect the lines, check for my specialized prose
I pose a threat to rappers and the industry at once
One side is out of luck, the other side is out to lunch
One side don't wanna battle, the other don't wanna budge
And sign me, well screw it, to hell with the whole bunch
I do this for my people supportin' me from the day
Those who got my album and actually had to pay
Let me getcha up to date cuz a lot of shit has changed
Some of it's mad dope but some of it feels strange
Like I'm single now, when in the clubs yo I mingle wild
Years ago, living without my lady, couldn't think of how
More on that later, cuz I'm actually much stronger
Got ideas how to make my rap career longer
Slowed it down a bit, plus my hooks are top notch
Only ride the sickest beats plus the cuss words I watch
Flows are at they best whether smoothed out or hard
Still got a lot to say plus I still love God
Not a fool, I swallowed my pride and found a job
Finished school, then bought a new ride, then turned the knob
On the door where opportunity was knockin'
I'm rap's eternal cradle, I will never stop rockin'
Check it out...
[Chorus]
For my next stunt, a David Copperfield-like magic trick
Make a rapper disappear while I get set to brag a bit
But hold a sec, before I go ahead and take a stab at it
I have to slap a diss on all you niggaz on some tragic shit
It's wack that it's hard to find artists who ain't frauds to me
If you ain't on this record it's because you didn't wanna be
Ask to do a track and suddenly you stopped with callin' D
But that's alright, keep sleepin', it adds to my armory
And now to all of the people who throw me pounds
When you see me on the street or somewhere around town
Tellin' me to freestyle on the spot
Respect my space and privacy and if the time is right, then we'll rock
But cut that shit out, I'm not 24-hour entertainment
Although I'm outstanding like payments from gamblers in Vegas
Okay kids, now that I got that off my chest
Let me a poke a finger in it, while I talk about the best
Where do I start? Oh yeah man, at shows I'm tops
I put more people's hands in the air than cops
When I rock stages, I belong on a throne
I'm like a kid in school on Saturday, in a class of my own
You talk a big game, but when I show up to your festival
Your poise switches like voice pitches on transsexuals
But yo, the best of all is just for spittin' these tunes
I make a living like women in delivery rooms
Yeah!
I watch the TV, it is my world
Takes my mind beyond these walls
The more I see the less I care
For all the people out there
In my room, I see war
In my room, love
In my room, visions from hell
In my room, joy
I like to watch as the newsreel unfolds
I like to watch from behind glass walls
The more I see the less I care
For all the people down there
In my room, I see war
In my room, love
In my room, visions from hell
In my room, joy
I may be alone inside to see you
Memories are born of fire to see you
I can’t make it love and I can't ever sombre
Memories fall out of desires
I may be long so I maybe a reason
Take it away from hurt and make it a hero
I can’t make it love and I can't ever sombre
Memories fall out of desires
Sometimes I just don't feel myself at all
Sometimes I don't feel anything at all
Sometimes
Just feel the inferno
Just need it
Want it
Have it
Love it
Feel the inferno in you
Feel it
Need it
Want it
And breathe it
Sometimes I just need to discover myself
Feel out where I am in the fire
Lying deep inside of me
And as I hide between the covers
I feel the inferno riding up
It’s feelin’ me up
Fire everywhere
I’m burnin’ up
Burnin’ up inside
And do I feel that I’m gonna get a temperature
Just feel the inferno
just need the inferno
Just want the inferno
Just have the inferno
Just love the inferno
Just heal the inferno
Just make the inferno
Just feel the inferno
The beat slows down and
My heart skips a beat along with it and
I can’t rest
I feel like I’ve hit a new low and I
Suddenly walk out on the dance floor
I feel a lil rush over me
Could it be the inferno taking over me
I’m worried that I might lose control before
It’s too late
Hold up now
I think it’s too late
Just feel the inferno
just need the inferno
Just want the inferno
Just have the inferno
Just love the inferno
Just heal the inferno
Just make the inferno
Just feel the inferno
It’s out of control
Just feel the inferno
Let it take over you
Let it burn you up
Just feel the inferno
just need the inferno
Just want the inferno
Just have the inferno
Just love the inferno
Just heal the inferno
Just make the inferno
Just feel the inferno
It’s out of control
Just feel the inferno
Let it take over you
Let it burn you up
Let it burn you funny
Cold this night as you feel your fright
The horns of doom resound
White knight shines and you know why
The sky burns the giants light
Winter ends but what will come
The wolf the serpent the end
This the time for You and I
All Einherjer are gathered to fight
See the ship from Helheim comes
See the dead with Hel in front
I can't believe - Then the sun went down
Hear the roar - The wolves age
The clink of sword - death's rage
Brothers shall be brothers bane
In the end you kill in vein
Do you believe
An old oak shakes and it's wisdom too
Waves are eager to feed
Gods falls as men so do men
The children of Loke the same
Some will be missed some will not
Some live forever in memory
The sun turns black as our mother drowns
The sky is touched by flames
See the ship from Helheim comes
See the dead with Hel in front
I can't believe - Then the sun went down
Hear the roar - The wolves age
The clink of sword - death's rage
Brothers shall be brothers bane
In the end you kill in vein
Do you believe
Now death is the portion of all doomed men
Shields clash and sharp swords bleed
Yggdrasil trembles it groans in woe
Red with spilt blood giants as gods
Garm howls at Gnipaheller
Fumes reek, into flames burst
The heavens split open
Well, would you like to know more...
I can't believe - Then the sun went down
Hear the roar - The wolves age
The clink of sword - death's rage
Brothers shall be brothers bane
In the end you kill in vein
(Fills Solo)
Generation unface
Ringtone terror all days
I am switching through the programs
What can be just sucks
Changing styles in all ways
pretenders of the new faith
the guardians of the new age
better open not their mouths
(make-up wake up)
Sitting on a fat ass
A consuming faceless mass
the imitation of life
We are killing our own style
The lowest level is not reached
The colors of time have bleached
hidden under make-up
we keep ourselves in shape
(wake up dead with a burning head)
Inferno,Inferno,Inferno
The so called trend is dead
Inferno,Inferno,Inferno
and all I see is red
Inferno,Inferno,Inferno
The so called trend is dead
Inferno,Inferno,Inferno
and all I see is red

Heavy clouds hide the sun,
Crying people on the run,
Feel the heat, feel the pain,
Through the smoke and pouring rain,
Flames lick high, scorch the sky,
Time has come, it is done,
People near, feeling fear, it has come,
Man-made sun.
Chorus
Inferno, Inferno, Inferno.
Fireball mushroom cloud,
Heat-wave heat over ground,
Wind of death, melt my eyes,
wall of sound drown my cries,
See my kind dropping there,
Feel the pain on the air,
Run from this I can,
Save myself to understand.
Chorus
Fireball mushroom cloud,
Heat-wave heat over ground,
Wind of death, melt my eyes, wall of
Sound drown my cries,
See my kind dropping there,
Feel their pain on the air,
Run from this if I can,
Save myself to understand.
Chorus
Fireball mushroom cloud,
Heat-wave heat over ground,
Feel the heat, feel the pain,
Through the smoke and pouring rain,
Wind of death, melt my eyes,
wall of sound drown my cries,
Run from this if I can,
Save myself to understand.
You are an inferno, you are on fireYour smoke and your
flames climb higher
You light up the sky, you set the world blazing
You're the heat that all of us are chasing
If I told you I could put you out, I'd be a liar
All I can do is throw myself into you
You make me a liar
You make me a liar
You are a storm way out on the ocean
Fifty foot waves rise up in slow motion
In the middle of the day, you paint the whole world black
Even the air around you is under attack
Watching you, safe out here in the open
All I can do is steer straight into you
You make me a liar
You make me a liar
You are an angel, you are in the sky
You light the world up when you open your eyes
When you breathe you make the warm wind blow
When your tears fall the flowers grow
Nobody can reach you but I'm going to try
All I can do is jump straight up to you
Ooh, you make me a liar
Inferno! Devastation On Earth!
My master satan is coming down to earth.
The stars will gather at the demons birth.
This is inferno! Destruction lays on earth.
Baptized with fire. This is the demons birth.
I worship satan! The bringer of all light!
He has all wisdom and reigns with strength and pride.
My master - I am calling!
Bring us your inferno!
Your demons are bringing
Eternal devastation!
Warfare, warfare, warfare and inferno!
Warfare, warfare, warfare and devastation!
Inside a mind without reasonBringing forth a darkened
season.
Watch the flames encircle me
I feel them burning through the cracks
Emptiness embraces me
I feel I'm never coming back
And I hear stone angel sing
On my knees to the pain they bring me.
And I hear a fallen angel cry
Choking back the tears in my own eyes
And I feel that I'm never ever coming back to my home
My mind is not my own
All these thoughts from memories of old
Trudging back to my bottomless soul
And an angel prays so that she may see
And I know that she yearns to be with me
Now I feel that there is no more love left for this one
I sit in silence by the hanging tree
Look inside my eyes
Tell me what you see
Emptiness and pride
Shattered pains of memory gone
When will it stop
Round and round the shuttered square I stroll
With the devil's arm in mine
No sound but the scrape of his hoofs was there
And the ring of his laughter and mine
How do you feel when you think about dying
How do you feel when you think about dying
How do you feel?
I kneel in front of a gravestone and what do I see
Burning... A nauseating taste
Pointles... Your life is such a waste
Bouncing and battering the beast in my skin
Aggression has come to grow
Forcing my feelings to step out of me
Relentless to the bone
Vengence dwells inside
Fearless I feast on your life
Screaming... My body connect with pain
Outrageous... In havoc I shall remain
Raping the cradle a life filled with sin
Forces below I adore
Your soul might be clean but this game you can't win
I'm back into the core
Vengence dwells inside
Fearless I feast on your life
Into inferno
The result of a failure
Genetic error
A system out of control
Creative energy
Transformed into hatred
A twisted perception of truth
Mankind breeds mortality
Sickness passes on through generations
The effect shows through genocide
Malfunctioning minds
A bite of the fruit
Termination activated
This creation once destined for success
Now violated and raped by one
Given access to the heartland
Evil dominion over their spirits
Divorced from it's creator
Between ice and flames my reign will arise,
where thives and torturer will find their home,
where weak persons' tears won't find love and compassion
but the neverending torture with pure violence.
...sorrow and tears will be the cry of my empire...
Here the only music will be the divine lamentation,
richness and ambition won't be a sin
but a reason of proudness.
Here i'll build up my sweet home and i'll call it
