1. LAMENTS OF THE FALLEN ANGEL

I am a vessel of wrath
I am an instrument to cut away the dead of society
Slowly I carve the soul of your broken body
Dissection...the slicing...to remove the skin (piece by Piece)
Mutilation...you're screaming...is in vain (piece by piece)
Desecration...I'm tearing...your soul apart (piece by Piece)
Disillusion...you're seeing...the truth (piece by piece)
Can you feel these icy hands
Gripping your soul, holding on
Pulling you down into your grave?
I hear laments of despair among the fallen
Our Eulogy is inscribed on the scrolls of the past
I am a vessel of wrath
I see the sun bleached bones of humanity
Lying sprawled across the barren wasteland


2. THE FALLACY OF ONE

We dwell in kingdoms of negation
Cessation of suffering
The path to one will certainly fail
Blindly we submit to this end
We yearn to celebrate the flesh
With desires that can never be met
We yearn to celebrate the flesh
Our needs will consume all
We're strengthened upon the sorrows of fellow man
Our evil is self-consuming
We're drenched in the sins of existence
We seek salvation in the fallacy of one
I refuse to walk this path
The path that misleads all
Regret lies heavily upon our hearts
The truth can be seen as a reflection in the eyes of the Dead


3. THE ESSENCE OF PROPHECY

Visions of apocalypse
Revealed for all to see
A warning of what is to come
A warning of what is to be
Cities fall in ruins
Charred by the fires of greed and tyranny
This is hell... hell on earth
I see only darkness over the horizon
There is no hope...no hope in sight
Revelations disregarded
Revelations ignored
The prophecy has come full circle
Revelations disregarded
Revelations ignored
The prophecy has been full-filled
The heretics cry out
Grieving over this sickened world
All that will remain is a lifeless world
From so many years of insanity
The end is near
Visions of apocalypse
Revealed for all to see
So let the fires rain down
To end mankind's reign


4. ABOMINATION OF THE DESOLETE

You stand on holy ground
Placing your idols upon the altar
Dare you desecrate this temple with sacrilegious ways?
For this will be the hour when darkness reigns
And your messiah can offer you no protection
We are left to our own fate
The wrath of god is upon us
For when the last martyr is slain (is slain)
And the hall of souls is emptied (emptied)
When darkness spread through our bodies (bodies)
Like a disease
Kingdoms rise and fall but the law is eternal
Figures painted in shades of red upon the murals of lost Souls
For the wicked will perish
Drowning in their own aftermath
For the blood shed cannot be washed away
Stained for all eternity
We stand before the thrones of judgement
Where the eyes of Justice pierce our souls


5. THROUGH THE DARKEST DAYS OF TRIBULATION

Nameless are the architects of our destruction
Fallen to the throne of one
A dominion that began 10,000 years ago
A reign of lunacy
The nine voices of distress
Constantly screaming, drowning our all else
A chorus of distress
The voices that wail of the loss of vision,
Failure of purpose, collapse of morality
All the world is in obscurity
A nightmare that will only end
With the angel of death
Sanity abandoned
Sanity abandoned
The flaw of humanity is that we are not humanity
In this conquest
We've conquered ourselves


6. IN THE SHROUDS OF DARKNESS

Sickened souls cry out in horror
Caressed by the misery of life
The souls of millions sacrificed
Enthralled by this dying world
Forced to suffer
All sacredness is lost
The sacredness of life is lost to desensitization
from the womb of creation
The angels fall from grace
Laying hidden among the shadows
Draped in the shrouds of darkness
Caressed by the sickness that infects humanity
But the war we wage against the heavens rages on
And the ashes of the burning sky fall upon the ground
The ground
Will fall upon the ground
The ground
Will fall upon the ground
Wars waged under the guise of righteousness
Such sickness is unparalleled
The seeds they've sown in this dying world
Shrivel under the scorching sun
Bow to your altars of deceit
To your false prophets and to misery


7. MOURNING THE SICKNESS

I see the hosts of heaven
In the blackened sky
I hear the cries of the tormented
Through the tongues of demons
Our past was emblazed
With words of salvation we prostrate ourselves
At whose feet do we bow?
The fallen king of tyre
I've seen the dominion of elohim
Darkness is the river
Into which we were all baptized
Crucified for the age of ages
Continuing with this unholy war
Another seal lay broken
Let loose the four fallen angels
Bound at the great euphrates
To kill a third of mankind
Inwardly I mourn
With heart gripping anguish
Haunted by the dying angels
This is the valley
That pierces me with dread
Where flowing blood mixes with tears


8. INTO THE GATES OF ETERNAL SUFFERING

'Through me you pass into the city of woe:
Through me you pass into eternal pain:
Through me among the people lost for ay.
Justice the founder of my fabric moved:
To rear me was the task of power divine,
Supremest wisdom, and primeval love.
Before me things create were none,
Save things eternal and eternal I endure.
All hope abandoned, ye who enter here.'
