1. Damnation

You're forced into a world
Of hate and lies
A God forgotten place
Destined to die

My fate I will not face
Your black and cold embrace
Salvation free my soul
May death be my savior

One step higher - evolution - live to die
Feel the fire - revolution - it's a lie
Domination - devastation - heaven sent
Damnation - damnation - it's where we end

War, corruption, terror
Rule our days
The monsters we create
Are here to stay

My fate I will not face
Your black and cold embrace
Salvation free my soul
May death be my savior

One step higher - evolution - live to die
Feel the fire - revolution - it's a lie
Domination - devastation - heaven sent
Damnation - damnation - it's where we end

Listen to my words
Before you die
No one ever dries
The tears we cry

My fate I will not face
Your black and cold embrace
Salvation free my soul
May death be my savior

One step higher - evolution - live to die
Feel the fire - revolution - it's a lie
Domination - devastation - heaven sent
Damnation - damnation - it's where we end


2. Unholy War

Deep in the night in the kingdom of hate
In a land far away and unknown
A false prophet stands on a hill, holds his hands
To the sky and he prays to the moon

He is the betrayer, the liar, the snake
He preaches the ultimate sin
He preaches a war against freedom and rights
Of us all in the name of his God

Stand and fight, kill and die
Until the last drop of our blood has fallen to the ground

Brothers I am calling for the honour raise the sword
Together 'til we are falling, we will praise the gods of war
Brothers I am calling for the glory raise your guns
The battlefield awaits now, our holly war has begun

His people are dying of hunger and freeze
No smile in their face, big dead eyes
They follow him blind, they believe in his words
For a better world they all will die

How could they know what they do, what they feel
All in their life's just a lie
The only thing they have believed in forever
The only thing left of their pride

Stand and fight, kill and die
Until the last drop of our blood has fallen to the ground

Brothers I am calling for the honour raise the sword
Together 'til we are falling, we will praise the gods of war
Brothers I am calling for the glory raise your guns
The battlefield awaits now, our holly war has begun

Look at your prophet, his confident smile
He's laughting and pulling the strings
The strings he is holding like God in his hands
His puppets are damned to obey

So stand up and open your eyes, you will see
No victim of fate you must be
What kind of a God bare you prayed to
Whose prophet's a sinner, his name blasphemy

Stand and fight, kill and die
Until the last drop of our blood has fallen to the ground

Brothers I am calling for the honour raise the sword
Together 'til we are falling, we will praise the gods of war
Brothers I am calling for the glory raise your guns
The battlefield awaits now, our holly war has begun


3. Dark Legacy

A shadow has fallen all over the sky
The curse has begun as the wizard has died
Killed by the king in the name of their god
His gravestone is covered with words of his blood

The king did not care and spit on the grave
Upon his throne felt so mighty and brave
But soon came the storm, a big thrust and disease
Over his kingdom the curse's now set free

Revenge will be mine, these last words I have spoken
The blood of your sins will break the spell

For the blood on your hands for my death you will pray
It's the only way to wash your sins away
For your kingdom to save and for to make your eyes see
Forever remember my dark legacy

Caught in his suffer, the king's torn in two
Offer my own life, what else can I do?
My sons or my kingdom I won't give away
Too late to regret
But it's my turn to pay

Revenge will be mine, these last words I have spoken
The blood of your sins will break the spell

For the blood on your hands for my death you will pray
It's the only way to wash your sins away
For your kingdom to save and for to make your eyes see
Forever remember my dark legacy

The wizard appears, a cold smile in his eyes
The king makes his offer but he just denies
Feel all my pain now for what you have done
Forever he dies then, the spell it lives on

Revenge will be mine, these last words I have spoken
The blood of your sins will break the spell

For the blood on your hands for my death you will pray
It's the only way to wash your sins away
For your kingdom to save and for to make your eyes see
Forever remember my dark legacy


4. Shadows Of The Past

Time's gone by, forever it's lost
Winter of life, eternal frost
Back in time, the early years
A young man full of hope appears

Into the abyss I'm falling
The creature of death now is calling
Beckoning we the hand of doom
I follow, make me see

Sadness and sorrow guide me to the other side
Now as the end is near for me, salvation is in sight
Blinded by darkness am I crawling in the dust
In your eyes I see my shadows of the past

Now it's near, the night has come
I see clear now, it's work is done
The truth is here and it ends like a knife
Willing to hurt me this beast called life

Into the abyss I'm falling
The creature of death now is calling
Beckoning we the hand of doom
I follow, make me see

Sadness and sorrow guide me to the other side
Now as the end is near for me, salvation is in sight
Blinded by darkness am I crawling in the dust
In your eyes I see my shadows of the past

I've lost my will, so many wasted years
I never knew the meaning of fear
After all there will be nothing left
I close my eyes, in peace I rest

Into the abyss I'm falling
The creature of death now is calling
Beckoning we the hand of doom
I follow, make me see

Sadness and sorrow guide me to the other side
Now as the end is near for me, salvation is in sight
Blinded by darkness am I crawling in the dust
In your eyes I see my shadows of the past


5. Pure Evil

Straight from hell appeared the evil creature
Prepared to kill to take away all life
It shares to you and you cannot resist
His black dead eyes so full of hate to mankind

Deep black night is falling down to earth
The end comes near from deep below the diabolic curse
A nameless evil took it's human shape
It's deep inside of all mankind, just waiting to escape

He come to make the human race bow down
Reign of terror, his pleasure your pain
Be his slave until the end of all days
'til the last drop of human blood falls down to the ground

Deep black night is falling down to earth
The end comes near from deep below the diabolic curse
A nameless evil took it's human shape
It's deep inside of all mankind, just waiting to escape

Born out from your rotten tombs
It means war
Hear his name and die in fear
It means war
The gates of hell are open now
It means war
Out of the mirror, it slaves to you
It means war

The essence of evil's coming down on you
No way to refuse, no need to obey
The incarnation of a nightmare comes true
Rips the flesh of your body takes your soul away

Deep black night is falling down to earth
The end comes near from deep below the diabolic curse
A nameless evil took it's human shape
It's deep inside of all mankind, just waiting to escape

Born out from your rotten tombs
It means war
Hear his name and die in fear
It means war
The gates of hell are open now
It means war
Out of the mirror, it slaves to you
It means war


6. Rebellion

When I was young man I've been fighting day by day
Fighting for my dream of freedom for my right to say
I am me, I'm my own nation, going my own way
Me and millions of my brothers, that's the game we play

Come with me, in a union we stand
Come with me, our rights we just defend
Come with me, all against conformity
Come with me, for rebellion shall be our destiny

We bad so much power and a fire in our eyes
Tear down the walls, destroy the system, fighting all their lies
Our burning souls, infinite will, together we were strong
One by one but all united, how could we be wrong

Come with me, in a union we stand
Come with me, our rights we just defend
Come with me, all against conformity
Come with me, for rebellion shall be our destiny


7. I Don't Care

Years ago you won't remember the time forever gone
More than friends we just were brothers
We stood together as one
All those memories, all our dreams and every tear we shared
But now you're gone, you turned to leave and no more I don't care

Can't love you, can't hate you
Don't know you, no more words to say
Don't want you, don't need you
Won't see you, never see you again

Lose or win, pray or sin
I don't mind, it's your affairs
Laught or cry, live or die
I do not worry, I don't care

Never I could understand the reason why this bad to be
Still I see hate in you but it's been leaving me
No more pain, there no more trust in you I won't believe
Play your games and go your way but never count on me

Can't love you, can't hate you
Don't know you, no more words to say
Don't want you, don't need you
Won't see you, never see you again

Lose or win, pray or sin
I don't mind, it's your affairs
Laught or cry, live or die
I do not worry, I don't care


8. The Messenger

Full moon shining cold outside, I'm walking in a sweat
Something strange inside a nightmare, just a shilouette
But now it's coming closer to me, his breath it strikes my skin
Am I insane or is it real, the nightmare I'm still in

Beware of what you dream
Save me from my dreams

Black holes where his eyes should be, a face as cold as ice
A shiver's running down my neck, my throat is hot and dry
I cannot move, I'm turned to stone as he begins to speak
You'll do my deed, you can't deny, the human will's too weak

Beware of what you dream
Save me from my dreams

Every night - he's talking to you
He's by your side - he makes it come true
Deep in your mind - He manipulates
The messenger's here - He's choosing your fate

The sun is shinning bright outside, I'm waking up again
Last night I cannot remember, it's every time the same
I don't care I never wonder, 'bout the strange things that I do
Until the shilouette is back, the messenger it's you

Beware of what you dream
Save me from my dreams

Every night - he's talking to you
He's by your side - he makes it come true
Deep in your mind - He manipulates
The messenger's here - He's choosing your fate


9. Time

Day after day all the years I remember
I have been living like time never ended
If there's a tomorrow, it's so far away
It seemed like my life had a millions of days

When we are young we don't need to look back
When we look forward, horizon is black
Just take a look in the eyes of a child
Infinity's burning there restless and wild

There are thousand ways to go
A million places known
But time once lost will not return
There is so much more to give
The reason why we live
But time once passed (is) forever gone

Time is over, never coming back again
It's lost and gone by no more chance for another try
Time is over, but still it's running on and on
Wherever you hide it will be there and wait for you

Hours go by in those dark rainy cold nights
Sleepless and scared as I gaze at the moonlight
Wondering how it could be that my life ends
Has it been worth all that, what has it mean?

What is now left for me more than remembrance
When I will go there is nothing in my hands
Just take a look in the eyes of a wise man
There you will see how to face your horizon

There are thousand ways to go
A million places known
But time once lost will not return
There is so much more to give
The reason why we live
But time once passed (is) forever gone

Time is over, never coming back again
It's lost and gone by no more chance for another try
Time is over, but still it's running on and on
Wherever you hide it will be there and wait for you


10. When Angels Wear Black

Somewhere in the dark there's a shadow falling down on me
Covers me wherever I go, where it takes me I'm too blind to know
Out there in the night I need to find the light
To lead me on the path we have to go

In a time, in a dark age, known as present day
The legend, the new messiah, he's reborn to end his way
Fear him, he's in disguise, dead eyes, his soul is black
Came for final judgement, it's here now, the beast is back

The angels wear black, holy bibles are burning
The good and the evil, their powers collide
The angels wear black, armageddon is calling
Your souls will be taken, the end of mankind

In his name they will divide the sinners that walk the earth
They sent us to purgatory, our downfall a new rebirth
By his word, his prophecy, fall down on your knees
Damned ones, you shall be cursed, a desert the earth will be

The angels wear black, holy bibles are burning
The good and the evil, their powers collide
The angels wear black, armageddon is calling
Your souls will be taken, the end of mankind

In the end our planet dies, a new age, decay begins
Crucified to wash away the seven deadly sins
The dark one, what has he been, messiah or antichrist
One day, when he'll return, a better kind will rise

The angels wear black, holy bibles are burning
The good and the evil, their powers collide
The angels wear black, armageddon is calling
Your souls will be taken, the end of mankind

Somewhere in the dark there's a shadow falling down on me
Covers me wherever I go, where it takes me I'm too blind to know
Out there in the night I need to find the light
To lead me on the path we have to go
