HEAVENSENT
I feel down as ever
my mind has spun astray
black rays breaming through my head
innards burned away
tears fall frozen from my eyes
that's how cold I am
stiffened finger on my trigger
my temple I would ram

Burning bullet speeding high
rip apart my mind
never think such thoughts again
one less of my mind

Fill: Lundemark

Heaven send angels to fall
clearest, darkest void of all
become all I wanted to be
Heaven send angels to me

Lead: Murphy

In my heart the stones are cold
essential to the wall that is me
both mind and soul are locked
on life without end
mind like a machinegun
body like a trigger
if you come to close to me
my blood and yours shall mingle

TIME WILL HEAL
Spent time to mend this thing
but the fire is still burning
no one can touch my own
next of kin, hah everyone take care of their own

You can't take it away
can't bleed me
not for another day
I stand for what's my own
and your greedy hends won't own
just to mend this, I cannot repent shit
the blood in my veins runs for myself

Lead: Murphy

I am the one
I can't take more from you
your candle's lit, burning at both ends
it won't be long, before the flames meet
and then, my friend, you'll see your lies are history

But the sun is still shining
the days are light and bright
with all my heart rejoice
and cherish the days and the nights of my life

Time Will Heal

CROWN OF THE EMPIRE
The Crown Of The Empire
to achieve they conspire
shackeling the righteous one
the fallen king's infant son
gone to the holy land
to kill the ungodly man
presumed to be dead
so the Trator mounts the throne instead

Lead: Murphy

Unholy
Rape and Sacrifice
Return to my God
with Tears in my Eyes

Lead: Lundemark

In The white tower
the children are waiting
each sound freezing their blood
they know what's acoming
a true bloodline
beckons their fate
the royalty in their veins
will die in their wake

THROUGH MY VEINS
Your body the temple
that I will possess
dead-like but sprung into life
in your cells can live
spell your death with a whispered word
coming to you from another world
my form and shape
redefined you'll be like me

Redefined
through my veins run life-divine

I am no one
I threaten all without prejudice
my sole purpose is to eat
your life-divine
I will not begone
yet begun, cannot save your breath
hold it down, then exhale
last sifting noise, as you pale

Lead: Murphy

THE RECKONING
Lead: Murphy

I can't forget about the past
who was our redeemer
truth, that I thought I found at last
but truth become deceiver
tried so hard to better myself
my soul, my hearts contributor
so many times before my life was worse
today I am my keeper

In time we'll see our enemy
show us his strength and weaknesses
power befall us, or he will crush us
as we travel through the ages
writing history's pages

I am the link between the future and the past my ancestors blood in me
my blood in my children
all their powers derive from me, their future in my hands
these are the words of the watcher
these are the way that befall us

Past and present revealed
the future concealed
but readable to the wise ones
incomprehendable to the common sons
time tells all tales

This book, teller of stories, our lives on display
the way we were, may be the way to be
our future is nothing but our past repeated
tomorrow is today, when yesterday was this day

MISERY
Your face reflect what you are thinking
smiling face, flashing eyes
but all they really are
two holes of extinguished life

Lead: Murphy

You can't fool me
you can fool no one but yourself

At night under the blankets
those feelings will return
what is coming
what will happen while you sleep
what if you never wake again

Lead: Murphy

The sunrays to your window
and you're awakened by the light
take a deep breath of life,
and taste the morning air
knowing the day has followed the night

What a grand day
to again accomplish nothing
on this evening of your life decided
to live is just to die

INHUMAN
Through the dark our eyes at night
scan the woods for those misfortuned
know this our eyes are on you
we came your way
fall prey on your knees and bleeding
knowing this as life is sifting
death swift, impaling, we came your way

Eyes gleaming, fangs flashing
our kind are swarms at night
know this, our eyes are on you
we come your way
so thirsty and so hungry
abide with just one law
eat, fuck, and then we eat some more

We are the last ones on earth
fewer than these
as time is passing on us
never roam free

Lead: Murphy

So at the gates of hell
fear in your heart of seeing
knowing our eyes are on you
we come your way
wish all your life unto me
you want to be like me
hate, in your eyes it burns
now you know

I am the god of my own world
and my patience is gone

MY BELIEF
What is my belief you ask
stare at me with hollow eyes
but I won't even start to shiver
Think
Hopw I look through empty eyes
you can see that I don't care
I give a fuck about direction
choice of faith and common lives
other lives
theire concern not mine

Lead: Murphy

So what if thousand die this minute
as long I don't go down that way
so what if armies trample millions
my army is my mind
ever cold, ever careless
never tempted by defeats
fuck you, fuck this and fuck that too
there's nothing I can do for you

My Belief
