Silent in the dead of night Death draws near where six black horses ride Head in hand, held up high Where the horseman stops a mortal shall die Cower behind your gates in fear An omen of death, your end draws near Scream, cry, pray and yell Nothing can save you from this hell Bone whip of human spine Lashes out the curious eye Beware those who stare at the deeds of the dead Be marked in blood and off with your head A mouth frozen in a terrifying grin Calls your name from the glowing phosphorous of decay Take your final breath Before the ancient embodiment of death Cower behind your gates in fear An omen of death, your end draws near Scream, cry, pray and yell Nothing can save you from this hell

End of Days 04:18
Life’s a fragile virus, clinging to a speck of mud Suspended in endless nothingness Reveal our inner sickness for all to see All shall soon cease to be The human race is a fucking disgrace Eaten up by pride and vanity All the jealousy, hate and insanity Indoctrinated beliefs, none of us are free Borrowed time in a borrowed world And borrowed eyes with which to sorrow it In the last and dreadful hour All of humanity will cower No trumpets to be heard up high The dead shall live, and the living die Screams untune the blackened sky As the entire frame of nature break Into ruin and confusion hurled Destruction all around Stand amidst this dying world Sheets of fire sweeping the world black No redemption, no turning back The end of all unfolds The graves and pits of a billion dying souls Hell raining from the skies Hear the helpless cries Screaming and shouting in vain Until none but dying echoes remain The last bitter hours of cruelty and sorrow No gods or preachers left here to follow Ashes in the wind start to fall Death’s great domination over us all Rain will wash away what’s left of a sad, dying story Last reflections that will fade in the light of the morning The buildings are the last to crumble to the ground Gravestones of an entire world, no movement or sound Ancient creeks run bare among burned trees, rocks and stones Souls of the dead lost between dry skulls and cracked bones

Here we are in our dying shell of existence Not yet lived and nothing learned So arrogant to assume our own intelligence As we repeat the same mistakes over and over again Holding on to the hope of perfection The more we have the more we want Reaching for the stars but we’ll never have it all Crawling closer to our eventual downfall Told to believe such absurdities Making us commit these atrocities Religion the fuel and fire that burned the witch Now all that prevents the poor from killing the rich We are the fractured race Murder, starvation, torture and rape Times may change but people remain the same Vengeful time bombs covered in wounds and sores Treated with the sacrificial rites of war All the pain we cause and time we waste Humanity, the fractured race To assume the universe was designed with humanity in mind So arrogant, so stupid, so blind The story of our past and future remain the same An oblivious humanity slowly withers away Taught to believe little lies since we’re born To later believe the greater ones of the world Justice, religion and equality Adapted to comply with human greed Murder, starvation, torture and rape Times may change but people remain the same Vengeful time bombs covered in wounds and sores Treated with the sacrificial rites of war All the pain we cause and time we waste Humanity, the fractured race

War Bound 03:02
A spectre of vengeance moving like a virus Fulfilling society's primeval need To judge and punish its worst transgressors Destroy the disease Turn away from the light and step into the darkness The blackest night at the heart of the soul Terrifying embodiment of justice Come back to haunt us all War bound! Look into the eyes of anger I know you can see his rage but can you feel his fear? Red mists descend to cloud his mind The path now clear Turn away from the light and step into the darkness The blackest night at the heart of the soul Terrifying embodiment of justice Come back to haunt us all War bound! Burning vengeance fuelled by hate The judged will meet their fate Crimson will sparkle in the glory of the sun Rivers of red flow from the foolish ones

Great evils lurk in the foolishness of the human mind Simple addictions make us who we are Forced to live inside your head Wanting what you want, knowing it would be your end Will the removal of destructive sins Useless game you cannot win See the person that once was whole Vain and glorious downfall Behold the bitten apple Succumb to your atrocity Destroy yourself to find the secret in the ruins Finger on the trigger of self-destruct Internal struggle all that remains A pawn in your own pathetic fucking game Burn your world black with your wicked hands Breed the intolerance of "self" Scar your soul, pretend there is none Until all that holds you come undone Will the removal of destructive sins Useless game you cannot win See the person that once was whole Vain and glorious downfall Behold the bitten apple Succumb to your atrocity Deepening cuts that never bled Waste your days dying in your head Disappear into madness that make and unmake Haunting memories of your own mistakes Now on the brink, no more will There is little left to kill!

Victims behind invisible walls of oppression We don’t think, we’re conditioned to believe Controlled mental repression A raped system spreading the infection Patriotism a product of successful indoctrination Breathe the deception Systematic social regression Blind to the illusion Free to live ignorant and blind Bullshit fed into every mind Generations of indoctrinated sheep Feeding the corrupt media machine Break the shackles and reach out to your freedom Fight the oppression! Break to pieces the lies that keep you imprisoned Destroy their illusion Governments pillage and violate under cover of law, spreading ideology through manipulation and war Information controlled for truth free for all isn’t practical for those wishing to maintain control A Nation tied to history, bonds of suffering Ripping off past scabs of fear and hate More bloodstains on the hands of fate Stunt the life, cripple the growth Politicised from the moment of birth Through lies and propaganda corrupted Society de-constructed The wicked leading the blind Ensuring an ignorant, serving state Nefarious interests behind the scenes Bringing a nation to its knees War & peace a blurry line as we march towards self-destruction A brainwashed nation stained with corruption The doors of democracy are closing down Imperilled by mass-produced ignorance Coexistence with dull group mentality Adapted to the rhythm of dependency Assaulting the equality of community Abuse of the organs of state A long overdue revolution No longer will we sit and wait! A Nation tied to history, bonds of suffering Ripping off past scabs of fear and hate More bloodstains on the hands of fate Stunt the life, cripple the growth Politicised from the moment of birth Through lies and propaganda corrupted Society de-constructed

Illuminati 04:03
You deem yourself elite, enlightened Controllers of the frightened Those cowards, empowered Will leave this world devoured Mistrust and blood lust Our faith has turned to dust How can we have the truth be told? Popes and priests keep the faithful as slaves As world leaders rush us blindly to our graves The eye of Horus, blind as its beholders Blood of betrayers, fill the thirteen layers With deceit as your vision The root of religion You have us wage holy wars Making the world slowly yours Why does humanity fight? For a cause hidden from sight? How can we bring the lies to light? Popes and priests keep the faithful as slaves As world leaders rush us blindly to our graves The eye of Horus, blind as its beholders Blood of betrayers, fill the thirteen layers All your evils forgotten as the world now lies rotten We’re doomed to live in this wasteland Brought upon us by your hand The success of your oath has killed humanity's growth Now we pray for the end Popes and priests keep the faithful as slaves As world leaders rush us blindly to our graves The eye of Horus, blind as its beholders Blood of betrayers, fill the thirteen layers

Lord of Pain 03:16
Just a bit of your flesh and I could show you pain Embrace what was always meant to be Glorious suffering to sweep you away to an inhuman world of terror and decay Like insects they crawl and breed See them suffer, see them bleed Savour the euphoric calm of release as another consciousness starts to cease Accept this offering of blood and pain I sell Join the madness and find excruciating hell I am your monster; I am your fallen angel The master of cruelty revels in violence Lose yourself in a labyrinth of bloody illusions Frenzied victims of vulnerable flesh What a tangible thrill. What a mess… Your eyes wide open but not ready to die In death there is no agony, no scream, no cry In this time that should last forever Hope fades and you start to weep and shiver A supply of never-ending pain surely in time I should sicken of this game Thoughts to destroy this pathetic human race a passionless smile on a bloodstained face Accept this offering of blood and pain I sell Join the darkness and find excruciating hell I am your monster; I am pure evil unveiled Go mad before the last embers of daylight fades away Hypnotized by a hell greater than pain To cure you of this disease called life Despicable, lawless, waste of time
