1. KIRISUTE GOMEN

He who walks,
the fire breathes!

He who walks,
the fire breathes,
unlike the rest,
living by the bloody creed.

Kirisute Gomen!

Air of battle tasting stale,
reeks of deceit.
Send the bitter straight to Hell,
Kirisute Gomen!

In their wretched guts,
all they want is to feed.
Unending covetous hunger,
known as greed.

As the last legion,
makes it's way to the skies...

I can see in their eyes,
they've already died.
Inside but as for the outside,
I'll take their fucking heads.

Quake has bred with the storm,
conceiving war.
Wicked stampeding hordes,
Kirisute Gomen!

In their wretched guts,
all they want is to feed.
Unending covetous hunger,
known as greed.

As the last legion,
makes it's way to the skies...

I can see in their eyes,
they've already died.
Inside but as for the outside,
I'll take their fucking heads.

I can see in their eyes,
they've already died.
Inside but as for the outside,
I'll take their fucking heads.

I will never be,
what they want me to.
I live by my own path in life,
no turning back now.

I won't be held down,
forced into a shallow grave,
built upon their empty ways.
There's no turning back!

There's Hell to pay,
such disarray.
A bloodied mess,
flesh masquerade.

With all the blood,
making a flood.
You made your path,
by crossing us.

He who spits the fire,
seethes all he detests.
Decapitating bloody creed,
Kirisute Gomen!

In their wretched guts,
all they want is to feed.
Unending covetous hunger,
known as greed.

As the last legion,
makes it's way to the skies...

I can see in their eyes,
they've already died.
Inside but as for the outside,
I'll take their fucking heads.

I can see in their eyes,
they've already died.

I won't be held down,
forced into a shallow grave,
built upon their empty ways.
There's no turning back!

I will never be,
what they want me to.
I live by my own path in life,
there's no turning back now.


2. TORN BETWEEN SCYLLA AND CHARYBDIS

Within struggle, amidst horror,
inside conflict, visceral war.
Make a stand here, vanquish all fear,
don't hesitate, eradicate.

Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feel the fear ripening, go taste it.
Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feast fruits of valor, if you face it.

Walls of carnage,
surround your weakness.
Crash down like oceans,
wait for the light,

In total darkness,
drowning in bleakness,
Awaiting Death's grip,
cry out for life.

Divided by destiny,
torn between Death and Doom.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

Apprehension runs down your chin,
masticate it, suck those tears in.
Life's a battle, perpetual crusade,
one against all, time to wield the blade.

Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feel the fear ripening, go taste it.
Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feast fruits of valor, if you face it.

Walls of carnage,
surround your weakness.
Crash down like oceans,
wait for the light,

In total darkness,
drowning in bleakness,
Awaiting Death's grip,
cry out for life.

Divided by destiny,
torn between Death and Doom.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

A fight that tests the substance,
of all that you call your life.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

Face down that,
which makes you bleed.
Turn it 'round,
and force your seed.

Down!

Face down that,
which makes you bleed.
Turn it 'round,
and force your seed.

Down!

Torn between,
Scylla and Charybdis.
Feast fruits of valor,
if you face it!

Walls of carnage,
surround your weakness.
Crash down like oceans,
wait for the light,

In total darkness,
drowning in bleakness,
Awaiting Death's grip,
cry out for life.

Divided by destiny,
torn between Death and Doom.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

A fight that tests the substance,
of all that you call your life.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.


3. DOWN FROM THE SKY

A chasm grows,
in the cavity of serpentine teeth.
Hunger pains strike,
for the sweet feast of innocent blood.

Of innocent bloodshed,
now here we go!

The vampires feed,
on the wars of mankind.
The vampires feed,
on the wars of mankind.

Growing fat,
on the throne of an empire.
Tyrant rules,
with the threat of a great fire.

I've opened up my eyes,
seen the world for what it's worth.
Tears rain down from the sky!

They'll blow it all to bits,
to prove whose God wields all the power.
Fire rains down from the sky!

The gaping wounds hemorrhaging,
the blood from which they feast.
Eat us alive, consume to feed,
a hunger with no end.

Let's fucking go!

The vampires feed,
on the wars of mankind.
The vampires feed,
on the wars of mankind.

Growing fat,
on the throne of an empire.
Tyrant rules,
with the threat of a great fire.

I've opened up my eyes,
seen the world for what it's worth.
Tears rain down from the sky!

They'll blow it all to bits,
to prove whose God wields all the power.
Fire rains down from the sky!

This battle's not the same,
which they have led us to believe.
A synthesis of propaganda,
terror and deceit.

We are the cattle,
they the slaughter.
Our meat: gasoline!

They pump us through the machine's valves,
to cleanse the world's "disease".
We are the ammunition,
that will cause all life to cease.

Annihilate all those,
who stand in their way.
Obliterate, they'll rain their holocaust,
down from the sky.

The vampires feed,
on the wars of mankind.

Obliterate, they'll rain their holocaust,
down from the sky.


4. INTO THE MOUTH OF HELL WE MARCH

Can't you see, it's not only me,
that feels we're linked to the seas.
Make your way to a massive grave,
if you can't fight for each day.

Torrential rain at the helm of Death,
it drowns the weak, battering the rest.
Black walls of waves pummel to capsize,
the roaring thunder overshadows our cries.

Spires of lightning thrown down from the Gods,
melting skin even in the deluge.
The mast is broken, hull is splitting.
Dear God, the fucking ship is sinking.

I will try,
to pour all of myself,
into this life before I die.

Such turmoil, let's make the blood boil,
make your time count or rot as the soil.
Life is hard, a fucking battle,
the time is now and here's your drum roll!

Torrential rain at the helm of Death,
it drowns the weak, battering the rest.
Black walls of waves pummel to capsize,
the roaring thunder overshadows our cries.

Spires of lightning thrown down from the Gods,
melting skin even in the deluge.
The mast is broken, hull is splitting.
Dear God, the fucking ship is sinking.

I will try to pour all of myself
into this life before I die.
If I go before my time then take
these words evermore into your life.

We crawl out from the wreckage,
fingers dig into the sands of the shores.
Everything we worked for is ripped apart and ruined,
drowned deep beneath our dying world.

The earth begins to open up!

Into the mouth of Hell we march,
into the mouth of Hell!
Into the mouth of hell we march!

Into the mouth of Hell we march,
into the mouth of Hell!
Into the mouth of hell we march!

Now you see, for it is we,
who walk the fire and breathe.
Make our way out of the grave,
and lick the blood from our blades.

Spires of lightning thrown down from the Gods,
melting skin even in the deluge.
The mast is broken, hull is splitting.
Dear God, the fucking ship is sinking.

I will try,
to pour all of myself,
into this life before I die.

If I go before my time,
then take these words,
evermore into your life.

I will try,
to pour all of myself,
into this life before I die.

If I go before my time,
then take these words,
evermore into your life.


5. THROES OF PERDITION

Blind-folded and gagged stood waiting,
with the whole world, my firing squad.
At the edge of the world I'm faced out,
staring the sun right in the eye.

Vultures circle above,
hyenas mocking the kill.
Excrement drooling,
down their chins.

Atop the cliffs I look down,
into the starving Hell mouth.
The rabid foam crashes,
hard on it's teeth.

Their mouth's salivate,
fantasizing my gruesome ending.
This world looks down upon,
a man who can stand on his own two feet.

As they're feeding their guns: "ready, aim".
They say I'll live, if I die for their cause.
Living under the rule of fellow Cro-Magnon fool,
they fear who leads and will kill to stay still.

Their mouth's salivate,
fantasizing my gruesome ending.
This world looks down upon,
a man who can stand on his own two feet.

Without eating from their claws...

Life feels like Hell should,
but this Hell's so cold.
Pull another knife out!

Stick it with rest of them!
When my back is full,
turn me around to face it!

Life feels like Hell should,
but this Hell's so cold.
Pull another knife out!

Stick it with rest of them!
When my back is full,
turn me around to face it!

Such melancholy, burning the stars from skies.
as we melt, drowning inside their bloodied eyes.
Hope is ravaged, running from lacerations,
sob so heavily, we choke, then we die.

Life feels like Hell should,
but this Hell's so cold.
Pull another knife out!

Stick it with rest of them!
When my back is full,
turn me around to face it!

Life feels like Hell should,
but this Hell's so cold.
Pull another knife out!

Stick it with rest of them!
When my back is full,
turn me around to face it...

Sob so heavily!
We choke, then we die...


6. INSURRECTION

Bow not before his creation,
these mortals: "man".
This act of insult,
breeds our discontent.

He turned his back,
on our loyalty.
I will bring my insurrection,
and a war upon Heaven.

I will bring my insurrection,
and a war upon Heaven.
Hellfire be my destruction,
for this war upon Heaven.

Forged from fire,
I declare this war.
A war against Heaven!

I bring upon my scourge,
filled with hubris.
A declaration of war!

It is I who spawns this fury,
torches ignite.
Blaze is set to engulf,
all of which we hate.

Storm in, eviscerate,
every motherfucker in our way.
I will bring my insurrection,
and a war upon Heaven.

I will bring my insurrection,
and a war upon Heaven.
Hellfire be my destruction,
for this war upon Heaven.

Forged from fire,
I declare this war.
A war against Heaven!

I bring upon my scourge,
filled with hubris.
A declaration of war!

Ascend to the Heavens,
to destroy them all.
Ascend to the Heavens,
to destroy them all.

Ascend to the Heavens,
to destroy them all.
Ascend to the Heavens,
to destroy them all.

Forged from fire,
I declare this war.
A war against Heaven!

I bring upon my scourge,
filled with hubris.
A declaration of war!

Forged from fire,
I declare this war.
A war against Heaven!

I bring upon my scourge,
filled with hubris.
A declaration of war!


7. THE CALAMITY

You cannot be,
you're the mistake, calamity.
Sent to destroy all of the good,
on this earth, killing me.

You're killing me!

The mother of ruination,
comes to fuck all.
Mutilating everything,
spread wide open, beckoning.

Beckoning me!

Spiral faster down!
Ripping a hole,
through the air we breathe.

An apocalypse,
encased in a shell,
so beautiful!

The calamity makes it's way to the inside,
I know we are feeling the same thing.
The calamity makes it's way to the inside,
to eat away at our existence.

Spewed from the wound,
of this life's worst cavity.
The nightmare spreads it's,
cancerous lamentations, poisoning.

Force feed the plague!

Drunk from the milk,
of Death's overflowing sick tit.
Nourishing the misery,
gives birth to the ugliness.

That grows inside!

Spiral faster down!
Ripping a hole,
through the air we breathe.

An apocalypse,
encased in a shell,
so beautiful!

The calamity makes it's way to the inside,
I know we are feeling the same thing.
The calamity makes it's way to the inside,
to eat away at our existence.

Isolate the heart,
from the brain.
Permeate,
inject us with pain.

Holding our breath now,
we're screaming without sound.
We're trembling as everything,
falls completely apart.

Meteor crash down,
come crater our woe out.
The banishment of everything,
once alive will start now.

Holding our breath now,
we're screaming without sound.
The banishment of everything,
once alive will start now.

You came to me,
you're the mistake, calamity.
Here to destroy all of the good,
on this earth, killing all.

Killing us all!

Spiral faster down!
Ripping a hole,
through the air we breathe.

An apocalypse,
encased in a shell,
so beautiful!

The calamity makes it's way to the inside,
I know we are feeling the same thing.
The calamity makes it's way to the inside,
to eat away at our existence.


8. HE WHO SPAWNED THE FURIES

The afterbirth has barely dried,
when the king of ruling time,
comes with a sickle in his hand to devour.

Devour...

Descendant of chaos,
castrated the father.
Fearing his overthrow,
swallowed his children whole.

Take your teeth out of me,
I have just begun to breathe on my own.
I don't know what this is,
these eyes can hardly see what is eating me.

The prisoners rotting in their cells,
children of this godless Hell.
Digesting in acidic blood, the devoured.

Devour...

Descendant of chaos,
castrated the father.
Fearing his overthrow,
swallowed his children whole.

Take your teeth out of me,
I have just begun to breathe on my own.
I don't know what this is,
these eyes can hardly see what is eating me.

Take your teeth out of me,
I have just begun to breathe on my own.
I don't know what this is,
these eyes can hardly see what is eating me.

He who spawned the furies,
severed the genitals of his father.
Creating such beauty, the Goddess of Love.
But the blood that fell to the ground,
made the erinyes.

He who spawned the furies!
He who spawned the furies!

Wreathed with serpents,
eyes dripping blood.
Winged tormentors of criminals.

Take your teeth out of me,
I have just begun to breathe on my own.
I don't know what this is,
these eyes can hardly see what is eating me.

Take your teeth out of me,
I have just begun to breathe on my own.
I don't know what this is,
these eyes can hardly see what is eating me.


9. OF PROMETHEUS AND THE CRUCIFIX

I am the Promethean,
tragic figure in this dream.
Dream known as life,
known as life.

I bring spark into the lives,
take the molded, show them fire.
Fire's the spark in their eyes.

My flesh is ripped at daily,
it's the cross I bear.

I feel it tear out my insides,
a pain so heavy I could collapse.
I feel it just may kill me,
I must brave through this storm.

I am made exemplary,
lashed up by the public scene.
For bearing my heart,
my soul's on fire.

I pull my ribs open now,
bleed my heart upon the ground.
Drink of the blood, take me in.

My flesh is ripped at daily,
it's the cross I bear.

I feel it tear out my insides,
a pain so heavy I could collapse.
I feel it just may kill me,
I must brave through this storm.

Chain me down, nail me up!
It feels so cold on my skin.
Flesh cut deep from their claws!
Chew my organs out.

Salivating with hate!
Crown of thorns, deathly boards,
won't make me cease to be.

You've turned this scapegoat,
into the lion that will,
devour you whole.

My flesh is ripped at daily,
it's the cross I bear.
My flesh is ripped at daily,
it's the cross I bear.

I feel it tear out my insides,
a pain so heavy I could collapse.
I feel it just may kill me,
I must brave through this storm.

I feel it tear out my insides,
a pain so heavy I could collapse.
I feel it just may kill me,
I must brave through this storm.


10. LIKE CALLISTO TO A STAR IN HEAVEN

Taken forcefully,
a thing which never can be.
Erased by time,
Since he made you bleed,
so violently.

Painful is the kick,
inside it makes you so sick.
The blood that drips down your thigh,
tarnishes virtue, lies.

Wearing a mask familiar,
a God forced himself on you.
Raping and impregnating,
causing the exile of your life.

Wearing a mask familiar,
a God forced himself on you.
Raping and impregnating,
causing the exile of your life.

Changed like Callisto,
to a star in Heaven.

Hate not the flesh that makes me,
but seek what lies beneath.
My flesh and blood will make the stars,
that shake bones underneath.

Now a forsaken ghost,
in the eyes of her world.
Banished for all time,
since he made you bleed,
so violently.

Painful is the kick,
inside it makes you so sick.
The blood that drips down your thigh,
tarnishes virtue, lies.

Wearing a mask familiar,
a God forced himself on you.
Raping and impregnating,
causing the exile of your life.

but seek what lies beneath.
My flesh and blood will make the stars,
that shake bones underneath.

Hate not the flesh that makes me,
but seek what lies beneath.
My flesh and blood will make the stars,
that shake bones underneath.

Cast out from the righteous life you loved,
vengeance comes down from the skies above.
To wreak havoc and torment the one,
who just gave birth to her true Love's son.

Cursed to roam the Earth alone, a beast.
Witnesses as her son now fully grown.
Readied arm to cast a spear to kill,
can't recognize, all he sees is fear.

Wearing a mask familiar,
a God forced himself on you.
Raping and impregnating,
causing the exile of your life.

Wearing a mask familiar,
a God forced himself on you.
Raping and impregnating,
causing the exile of your life.

but seek what lies beneath.
My flesh and blood will make the stars,
that shake bones underneath.

but seek what lies beneath.
My flesh and blood will make the stars,
that shake bones underneath.


11. SHOGUN

Won't walk the Earth a specter,
won't hold my tongue from lashing out.
This is my writ of honor,
drawn by the blood that I have shed.

The beasts will soon assemble,
conjoining in their putrid flesh.
Their hearts don't beat desire,
they pump violence and poison.

Flesh opens up,
blood's retreating.
Flesh opens up,
blood's retreating.

Death's embracing,
all is ending.
Death's embracing,
all is ending.

Time will not heal,
all of your pain.
I cannot wait for it all,
to come crashing down.

The monsters walk among us,
leeching the blood out from what's good.
Infecting at transmission,
swallowing innocence from life.

Our time has come to stand forth,
the wretched womb from which they feed.
Behold the loathsome demons,
send them into the Hell they made.

Flesh opens up,
blood's retreating.
Flesh opens up,
blood's retreating.

Death's embracing,
all is ending.
Death's embracing,
all is ending.

Time will not heal all of your pain.
I cannot wait for it all to come crashing.
Down on your face, ripping your veins out,
your insides win and kill you from within.

And the seas will rise as serpents,
spawned from the mouth of Earth's surface.
Soon the skies will fall fast, burning.
Open wide and eat the suffering!

The pulse is now quickening.
Softly, it's painstaking.
Look within to calm the storm,
raging inside the form.

There's no turning back!

For I'm witness,
to the changing.

Take all you have brought to sacrifice,
for you will lose much more.
If you succeed in this battle,
you still will lose so much more.

The pulse is now quickening.
Softly, it's painstaking.
Look within to calm the storm,

There's no turning back!

For I'm witness,
to the changing.

Take all you have brought to sacrifice,
for you will lose much more.
If you succeed in this battle,
you still will lose so much more.

Time has come,
to face all evil.

Now the seas rise up as serpents,
spawned from the mouth of Earth's surface.
As the skies now fall fast, burning.
Open wide and face the suffering.

The inferno spews out Hell's horde,
casting the flames upon our world.
As Death eclipses all the light,
we make our last stand 'til death, flight.

Time will not heal,
all of your pain.
I cannot wait for it all,
to come crashing down.

Time will not heal all of your pain.
I cannot wait for it all to come crashing.
Down on your face, ripping your veins out,
your insides win and kill you from within.


12. POISON, THE KNIFE OR THE NOOSE

Don't let this ruin all that I thought that I could be
A life amidst entropy is a fate I refuse to see

As the flames lick our feet
Coaxing us to make the leap
Cerberus drools at the knell
Come join the wicked inside Hell

Fall fast down from grace
The world tries to make me evil
Punished in this corrupt place
Life's so fucking medieval

As the flames lick our feet
Coaxing us to make the leap
Cerberus drools at the knell
Come join the wicked inside Hell

They will try to pull us down
But we won't cave in
We have something that they can't take
We know the truth inside
'Cause I will fight this by all means
With poison, the knife, or the noose at me

Our world
Is a minefield
With explosives ready to eviscerate the living
Sabotage
The devious blindfold
You're helping cut a hole
From here to here below your mouth
A battlefield
This fucking battle's right here
With man killing man, we're only fueling our own extinction

Our world
Is a minefield
With explosives ready to eviscerate the living
A battlefield
This fucking battle's right here
With man killing man, we're only fueling our own extinction

Die if, in apathy, your submissiveness their weapon
Turn inertia into rage and ram it through like a spear

As the flames lick our feet
Coaxing us to make the leap
Cerberus drools at the knell
Come join the wicked inside Hell

They will try to pull us down
But we won't cave in
We have something that they can't take
We know the truth inside
'Cause I will fight this by all means
With poison, the knife, or the noose at me


13. UPON THE SHORES

Wandering endlessly upon the shores
For something that I will never attain
Banished here for a life of nothingness
My only comfort is the sand I bleed on

Hope is gone, it will never be the same
All I feel are the repeated stings of pain
Pungent stench of the sins of the worthless ones
Faithless cries of the sins of the godless ones

Marching on in deathly silence
Upon the shores we go
Crashing tides applaud the violence
Upon the shores we go

I'm dying endlessly upon the shores
For something that I will never attain
Tortured here for a life of nothingness
My only comfort is the sand I die on

Hope is gone, it will never be the same
All I feel are the repeated stings of pain
Pungent stench of the sins of the worthless ones
Faithless cries of the sins of the godless ones

Marching on in deathly silence
Upon the shores we go
Crashing tides applaud the violence
Upon the shores we go

Charon, is this the fate for me?
Is the obolus all I pay?
Cursed to wander the shores of Acheron
My eyes must have been missing silver coins

Maggots drinking the blood of me
Insects licking the tears I weep
Hornets piercing, while wasps are breaking
Every single fucking inch of skin on me

Hope is gone, it will never be the same
All I feel are the repeated stings of pain
Pungent stench of the sins of the worthless ones
Faithless cries of the sins of the godless ones

Marching on in deathly silence
Upon the shores we go
Crashing tides applaud the violence
Upon the shores we go
