Lyrics


(1)Ritual Genocide
(Music & Lyrics: M Hems)

Awaiting your time
to expire upon the altar
A presence divine
has a hunger for your life
(Glory to those who are martyred in blood)

Your still-beating heart
is the prize the priest desires
Open your chest
to the fury of his knife
(Lifeforce receeds in arterial flood)

Slit, Writhe, Bleed, Die

Slick are the stones
that descend about the temple
A sea of demise
quells the wrath of the Gods
(Ancient and vengeful for all who revile)

No tomb for those
who are chosen for the slaughter
No grave awaits
left to rot upon the pile
(Bloodless and cold for the vermin to defile)


Fear, Plagues, Fires, Rage

Ritual Genocide
The Gods return on crimson tide

Free us from the horror that no mortal can survive

The prophet child has seen our fate
to perish in the flames of hate
A vision of impending pain
as flesh decays 'neath sulphur rain

Gaping Abyss
Spewing brimstone and thunder
Blacken the sky
Sowing panic through the streets
(Punishment through unnatural night)

Shaking the earth
like the voice of countless demons
A deafening howl
of hatred unleashed
(Woe be to those of such merciless plight)

Bones, Crack, Skins, Black

No sign from the Gods
Of recession of this torture
No solace for man
in exchange for their lives
(Sanctuary in the clutches of death)

Bloodletting failed
to abate the doom impending
the saviour is deaf
to the wailing of the damned
(Writhing in pain till the last burning breath)

Burn, Skies, All. DIE!

Ritual Genocide
The Gods return on crimson tide

Free us from the horror that no mortal can survive

Its your time to die


(2) The Age Of Conquest
(Music: S. Miller/Lyrics: D. Glover)

The battlefield soaked in bloodshed
yet here we rise
with valour and honour we see you die
the art of war, the art of drying
the price thats paid
in The Age of Conquest

Over seas and lands
through hardship and death
the will of the gods
will keep us in check

In legions we conquer
In legions we kill
Our empire expands and fear we instill

Cold steel on flesh
Cold blood in our veins
Your land is ours
Your gods are false

Stale bread, stale water
regardless we wont falter
In times of war, in times of death
in the Age of Conquest

A civilization's demise
Lost to us, the peoples cries unheard
Pillage, profit, destruction
for us to take home
Surrender for us
The writing is in stone

Over seas and lands
through hardship and death
the will of the gods
will keep us in check

Cold steel on flesh
Cold blood in our veins
Your land is ours
Your gods are false

In legions we conquer
In legions we kill
Our empire expands and fear we instill


(3) Wasteland (The Fallout's Desolation)
(Music: M. Hems/Lyrics: S. Miller)

From the dawn of mankind we praised the sun
Worshiped it as a god and yearned to recreate it
When the nazarene came to earth
we learned his father was the architect
When God was dead science replaced him

Phyiscs was the cure, unlearn old thoughts
create new ones, split the atom
Manufacture hate, find the enemy
Start the program, justify it
Believe in the cause, brainwash soldiers
Build the weapons, then unleash them
Destroy their culture, make no future
Watch the results, end it swiftly

It's time to prepare
For the coming dawn
Fire up the planes
Lead the soulless

In dark times,
We prayed in our darkest hour
for the almighty's power
In war times,
We harnessed our brightest minds to surpass his glory
Only for devastation, bring them to hesitation
They will see a new dawn made of ash

You can see the burst, lighting the sky
Bringing fury, feel the shockwave
You can feel the heat, creeping slowly
Melting concrete, create chaos
Utter devastation, count as victory

In dark times,
We prayed in our darkest hour
for the almighty's power
In war times,
We harnessed our genius to create God
Only for devastation, bring them to hesitation
They will see a new dawn made of ash

Wasteland, the fallout's desolation
A loss for both sides as we assure complete destruction
Maelstrom, extinguish all creation
with blazing fury blacken the earth beyond recognition

Death is in the air, indiscriminately
taking children and their elders
fear is everywhere, soldiers bowing
armies crumbling, shift the power
And of course the fallout
natives on the outskirts
horrible mutation
assured revery

In dark times,
We prayed in our darkest hour
for the almighty's power
In war times,
We harnessed our genius to create God
Only for devastation, bring them to hesitation
They will see a new dawn made of ash



(4) Hatred For All.. Mercy For None
(Music & Lyrics: M. Hems)

Pestilent and dismal beings
Contagion of mentality
Hunted untill extinction
By cold steel the enslaved are free

Punishment befallen,
their blood absorbed into the ground
the saviour's grave has opened
Upon your clefted skull our crown..

Hail! The Godless
Who stand against the righteous
Cast off the chains of faith
and take the path of might

Malice burning in our eyes
Striking forward with our wrath
Destroy with Hatred For All
and show Mercy For None

Blind in their delusion
the servants of deception cry
In mourning for their kingdom
Now smouldering in ruins lie

Defiant to the bitter end
Envenomed within our blood
A burning vitriol so fierce
Unable to contain

Eliminate the parasite
with torture to purify
Dismember their establishment
and smite the tongue that preaches lies

Hail! The Fearless
who reject the infection
spread forth the word of vengeance
and leave the weak to rot.


(5)The Gods Who Speak Through Fire
(Music & Lyrics: M. Hems)

And thus for traitors
with wrath we raise our swords to thee
A den of serpents
both venomous and vile
For your betrayal
the punishment is most severe
The book of torment
rewritten with your blood

Despair, despair, despair and bow before me

I am divine requital
my vengeance is supreme
I feed on castigation
languish in the obscene
witness the grand ascension
from fetid to sublime
In linguo deus morte
engraved upon your mind

Lords of the labyrinth
Lords of eternal pain
Invoke the art of torture
inscribed with sorrow's name
Lusting for violent pleasure
perverted and insane
The Gods Who Speak Through Fire
will rise again in flames

Violent catharsis
explosions of unfettered hate
prodigal vengeance
the yield of crimson earth
extermination
with rebirth comes a wave of turmoil
A tyrants bloodthirst
not sated by the dead

Despair, despair, despair and bow before me

Lords of the labyrinth
Lords of eternal pain
Invoke the art of torture
inscribed with sorrow's name
Lusting for violent pleasure
perverted and insane
The Gods Who Speak Through Fire
will rise again in flames
