DISC 1

1. .44 CALIBER BRAIN SURGERY

Incarcerated by my fear
Paranoia!
I’m condemned to live a wretched life
Confinement in a sterile world
Isolation!
Disconjunction with society

Boiling my food to exhume the parasites
Diet infectious
Water flowing through filters for distilling
Organisms infesting oxygen tanks
A breathing apparatus perpetuates vitality

Beleaguered by repulsion of defilement
Functional disorder of the mind
Obsessive aberration of absolute purity
Neurotic compulsion

Accursed affliction
Gnawing lamentation

Deteriorating intellect
Distortion of perception
Self proclaimed diagnosis
Drastic resolution
Self prescribe a red-hot slug
White knuckle pistol grip
Load the chamber, hammer cocked
Jam the barrel in my mouth

Need a reprieve from my misery
Unrelenting anxiety

All I ask is one final plea
44-caliber brain surgery

Surgery!

Purgatorial euphorium
Banish my affliction
Lead forged entry wound exempting me
From melancholic psychosis
Cybernetic annihilation
Finally set me free

Released from my coma
Denied death’s crushing jaws
Prolonged tortured existence
Informed by physicians
An amateur lobotomy
Deprived of an autopsy

Psychotic abortion
Grey matter negated

Premeditated remedy
Procedure of extremity
Thought I had a master plan
44 in my hand
Assassination was my goal
Polluted filthy world I loathe
Suicide with no success
Abolished my obsessiveness

Propelled the cure emphatically
Change convictions radically

Practicing without a degree
44-caliber brain surgery


2. SEE THE SIGNS

I see the signs of a corrupt nation
Living off the blood of humanity
The poor got nothing and nowhere to run
And the rich got more than they know what to do with

Yeah, don’t you see the signs?
Got our homeless on the park bench with nowhere to go

Yeah, don’t you see the signs?
There’s people suffering everywhere and no one seems to care
Yeah, don’t you see the signs?
We got our children begging for money with no food to eat
Yes, it’s true!

I can’t believe it (no!)
I can’t believe it
I can’t believe
The signs I see (no!)
I won’t receive it (no!)
I won’t receive it (no!)
We go to end the misery

I see the signs everywhere I look, yeah
People try to escape through material game
I look around at society
I can’t stand what I see

I can’t believe it (no!)
I can’t believe it
I can’t believe
The signs I see (no!)
I won’t receive it (no!)
I won’t receive it (no!)
We go to end the misery

Stand up, stand up and fight
Don’t be afraid, freedom’s your right
Revolution set yourself free
This world belongs to you and me


3. SISTER FUCKER [PART 1]

Screw mommy, mommy screwed
Lick golden sky like rain
My sight sees storm weather
Weathered like wood

Peer into glass yellowed
Curtains stained with smoke
Melancholy crush
In love with hurt the rust

Burn her
Burn her
Burn her

Rape!

This ink is dripping
A certain somebody
Whatever these words
Stood for I’ve gotten over
We live down the road
Things were at their worst


4. MASTER KILLER

In time my wounds will heal
As they give your name
Rivals meeting face to face
Fate sealed, you bow down in shame
Run, run, you run so far
Escape to nowhere
I smell the path you’ve fled
Turn your head, you’re dead

I am the master killer! Fall to me!
Pray for a way out which you can’t see
I the master killer! Strike you down!
Can’t be defeated, I own the crown

Your solemn sanctuary has become mine
Crawl upon your victims
See the tears of fear in their eyes
Watch them bleed
See as they writhe in pain
No one will answer
I’ve taken your mind and soul
Only escape is your fucking grave

I am the master killer! Fall to me!
Pray for a way out which you can’t see
I the master killer! Strike you down!
Can’t be defeated, I own the crown

I am the master!

The end has come for you
At the cost of your life
Now I stand atop the mountain
My killings have no end in sight

I am the master killer! Fall to me!
Pray for a way out which you can’t see
I the master killer! Strike you down!
Can’t be defeated, I own the crown


5. NO EDEN

Teeming billions
All diverging
All diverging
Teeming billions
All diverging
All diverging

Pleasure sought and pleasure found
Pleasure sought and pleasure found

All to Pandoran
All to Pandoran
Innocents until the pleasure
It came unbound

Sacrificial man
Keep your head down
Keep your head down
Sacrificial man
Keep your head down
Keep your head down

Teeming billions
All diverging
All diverging
Sacrificial man
Keep your head down
Keep your head down

Pleasure sought and pleasure found
Pleasure sought and pleasure found

All to Pandoran
All to Pandoran
Innocents until the pleasure
It came unbound
It came unbound
It came unbound
It came unbound
Keep your head down
Keep your head down
Keep your head down
Keep your head down


6. THE HUNTER

A force of light, an angel
Sent through time to destroy
Avenging the dark ones
Descending angelic force

Heaven sent the hunter
Her mission to crucify
Slay the hellspawn
His offspring demonic force

Descending from heaven
The angel sworn to bring him down
The hunter, the thunder
The wrath of heavens coming down
Descending from heaven
The angel sworn to bring him down
The hunter, the thunder
The wrath of heavens coming down

She swore an oath, an allegiance
Armageddon is in sight
To be the thorn in the devil’s back
To make him weak, the final fight

Descending from heaven
The angel sworn to bring him down
The hunter, the thunder
The wrath of heavens coming down
Descending from heaven
The angel sworn to bring him down
The hunter, the thunder
The wrath of heavens coming down


7. OH MY FUCKING GOD!

“Well gentlemen, a great deal of money has been invested in this project and we can't allow it to fail”

“There are no difficult tasks. Each action must simply be adapted to the challenge...”

Dream on, dream of God!

There is no insanity rather a super sanity
More suited for life at the end of the 20th century
Where everything is art and everything is trying to express it
Where everything is art and everything is trying to communicate it

All intelligent beings sleep
The dreaming of dreams and they’ve all come up
To meet me tonight although while in the morning
All their wonder and their glory was turned ugly and quite simple
Like a venue when you’re loading in gear

“A geological event of cataclysmic dimensions”

This is the night it all changes

Sexuality, eroticism in asexual persuasions
Man or woman makes no difference in the outcome
No fashion, no tolerance, for stupidity or ignorance
“Adidas” or “The Arch Deluxe” and time is now an object

Oh my fucking god!
Oh my fucking god!

Oh my fucking god!
Oh my fucking god!


8. BLACK

Born out of flames descending upon the earth
The master of games for what they are worth

One with the darkness
One with my soul
Black is all power
Black is control
It is my control

Black
The color of greed
The answer of hope
The essence of light

Black
The heart inside you
The soul inside me
The power of night

Black is the meaning of life
I hunger for the black of the night
Black is the meaning of life
I hunger for the black of the night

I hold the keys to unlock your dreams
Pleasures beyond this world has ever seen

I am desire
I am control
I am the light and darkness
Inside your soul
I’m inside your soul

Black
The color of greed
The answer of hope
The essence of light

Black
The heart inside you
The soul inside me
The power of night

Black
The color of greed
The answer of hope
The essence of light

Black
The heart inside you
The soul inside me
The power of night

The color of greed
The answer of hope
The essence of light
The heart inside you
The soul inside me
The power of night

The color of greed
The answer of hope
The essence of light
The heart inside you
The soul inside me
The power of night

Black
The color of greed
The answer of hope
The essence of light

Black
The heart inside you
The soul inside me
The power of night


9. RISING

Rising!
Rising!
Rising!
Rising!

Rising!
We’re so bright we are blinding
Rising!
Somehow we keep reminding
Rising!
Grafted from a hybrid breed
Survivalist unique and hard as concrete

I’m not going to let you let me die
So damn easy when you’re living a lie

Haven’t you heard cream rises to the top?
I hope you know we ain’t never gonna stop
Some cock blocking, others coping much love
To the fans ‘cause we’re still rocking!

Rising!
Rising!
Rising!
Rising!

Rising!
All I see are Kinko’s bands
Rising!
Nothing new just recycling the fans
Rising!
Skip to the loop in cement shoes
Breaking free up out of this cesspool

I’m not going to let you let me die
So damn easy when you’re living a lie

Haven’t you heard cream rises to the top?
I hope you know we ain’t never gonna stop
Some cock blocking, others coping much love
To the fans ‘cause we’re still rocking!

Rising!
Rising!
Rising!
Rising!

It doesn’t matter to me anymore
Who you think I am?
I am all I can be
It doesn’t matter to me anymore
Who you think I am
I am all I can be?
And I’m rising
And I’m rising
And I’m rising
And I’m rising
And I’m rising
And I’m rising
And I’m rising
And I’m rising


10. WHITE WORMS

It’s almost night
The clouds are streaked with violet
And the moon is bright
Banish your innocence

There is no breeze
Disquiet lurks in silence
By this place of power
Your sins must escalate

What has come before
And recurs perpetually
Is on its way
Cherish each atrocity

Woodland dark surroundings
Ill lit by twin beacons
A black car approaches
With two men inside it

With the right temptation
Murder needs to prompting
The man-riding shotgun
Has just killed his own son

To nurture the white worms

Still and isolated
The wood frame house stands vacant
Humans that once lived here
Can no longer be found
And yet all are present
Well-fed and ghastly white
In the mound of moist earth
That sits just by the road

His rigid features inexpressive
He flings his son’s blonde head upon the heap
This last act earns him his metamorphosis
For he who built the house is at the wheel

To nurture the white worms

Darkling souls, though larval
With each sin can mutate
Into something dreadful
Before dawn, you’ll pupate
And feed on innocents
Nourished by more like you
To someday haunt the aether
In obscene evolution

The house is hell
With it’s windows all agape
Through these come some worms
And they have sprouted wings

Fear is forever, the objective
To goad the rest of humanity
Into acts of pervert nature
And bring out the worm in all of us


11. SECOND SKIN

Now I peel my skin
Now I shed my skin
Now I peel my skin
Yeah, my second skin

Now I peel my skin
Now I peel my skin
No more shedding skin
Now I peel my skin

You don’t have the love
It takes to give it all anyway

I’m through shedding skin
Sick of running thin
Are you so-called friends?
Are you there in the end?

No more shedding skin
No more shedding skin
No more shedding skin
No more shed...

You don’t have the love
It takes to give it all anyway

You turned your back on me
Why’d you give up all that we’ve built together?

I should’ve known when you told me
It was hos before bros

Why must it be like this?
Be like this, be like this?

Sometimes I look back on the times we had
The reason that you quit was something else
Sometimes I think of all the times we had
The thought of all that shit just makes me sick...

You turned your back on me
Why’d you give up all that we’ve built together?

I’ll never forget the day you told me
It was bros before hos

Why?!
Why?!
Why?!


12. PLAYING DEAD

What the fuck are you?
What the fuck are you looking at?

What the fuck have you become
Through the course of a conversation?
Ignorance rears its head and I turn away

Playing dead
Playing dead

Ignore what was said
Lay down all my pride
Bury my conscious behind a smile

Playing dead
Playing dead

Never again will I compromise
This tongue has bled one, two, many times
So I’ll stare in the face of confrontation
And I’ll spit in the eye that see in black and white

I will not pacify myself
I will not play dead

What the fuck are you looking at?!


13. SOUL DEVOURER

I’ve seen the angel with sad eyes
Holding the flames of pure damnation
Bearer of light might evil one
Banished from heavens to rise again
Surrounded by thousands of serpents and beasts
Cursed child of damned god’s spawn
Angel of abyss, devourer of souls
Evil effigy shines the ancient rebirth
Supreme chants of necromantic prophecies
Throughout spheres of fire and light

Embraced onto infernal revelations
Deep in the darkest abyss
I evoke the almighty curse
From the light-binged god of rebellion
I see the sun dies
As I hear the children cries
Decipher of the seven seal
Lucifer!

Emperor of evil spheres
Purify with unholy wrath
Lord of the antichrist legacy
Summoning the light for pain
Desolation all thru the centuries
Enthroned as god as the curse remains

The curse has been fulfilled
Before the holy alliance of perpetual fallen
Destiny fated for chaos and destruction
Usurper prince of devouring death
Atrocious Sabbath, desecration of sacred blood
Shadows and darkness descends
As the shine of the most infernal curses
Ascends raising the dead again

Raising the dead again!


14. OF ONE BLOOD

Abandon this search for an ultimate reality
Your words only used to conceal the true meaning
Never speaking from the heart as you’ve built a wall of lies
Silence falls awakened all that you despise

These lies, our chosen roles
Force-fed your values and your goals

Why? You won’t see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally
Why? You won’t see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally

Reincarnation of the eternal soul
This struggle forever in our blood boils
Withstanding these attacks
Lay waste to all your claims
Kept chained no longer
Finding strength in all your shames

These lies, our chosen roles
Force-fed your values and your goals

Why? You won’t see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally
Why? You won’t see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally

Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity
Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity

These lies, our chosen roles
Force-fed your values and your goals

Why? You won’t see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally
Why? You won’t see
Truth: unity
Bound eternally

Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity
Forgiveness for those who stray
Protection through unity


15. THE RIVER DRAGON HAS COME

Today the warning came in the flood
Architects and fools never cared for poor men’s blood
Cursed to repeat the past they are
The river dragon swims upstream
They’ve built another wall

The three will save us from the flood
Washed away we drown
(The three will fall)

The river dragon has come
Souls wash away
The earth has spoken and taken them to their graves

Those who cannot remember the last
Fall away, far away
The distance meets its task

The three will save us from the flood
Washed away we drown
(The three will fall)

The river dragon has come
Souls wash away
The earth has spoken and taken them to their graves
The river dragon has come at first light of dawn
The earth has spoken and in the crush they are gone

The three will save us from the flood
Washed away we drown
(The three will fall)

The river dragon has come
Souls wash away
The earth has spoken and taken them to their graves
In the mass destruction the bringer shows his form
Technology the beast, the seventh crown


16. CONFESSIONS OF A LESSER KNOWN SAINT

Down the path of resistance
I find myself stumbling through
My wants and my failures
Weaker than the thrill
Temptations attack our loyalty
Both the idea and institution
An equation of emotion
Too thick for calculating
But in the solution 1 and 1 are 3

So when you see me pass me by
(Crossed my fingers)
Crossed my fingers wish that you won’t notice
Red-letter days still end with night
(Red-letter days still end with night)
In sleep we remain hopeful

Pay back to February
And heavy eyelids see plots unfold
To movie endings
Searching a bed room ceiling
Finding subtleties, finding flaws
But never answers
For what you did or what you do
I know the past still stings
But deafened ears waste apologies

So when you see me pass me by
(Crossed my fingers)
Crossed my fingers wish that you won’t notice
Red-letter days still end with night
(Red-letter days still end with night)
And dreams to wake and find another
So go to sleep, turn off your ringer
(Just close your eyes)
Afraid of what is left to find out
Until the daylight drips in our eyes
(‘Til the daylight drips in our eyes)
In sleep we’ll remain hopeful

There is nothing left to say!

So when you see me pass me by
(Crossed my fingers)
Crossed my fingers wish that you won’t notice
Red-letter days still end with night
(Red-letter days still end with night)
And dreams to wake and find another
So go to sleep, turn off your ringer
(Just close your eyes)
Afraid of what is left to find out
Until the daylight drips in our eyes
(‘Til the daylight drips in our eyes)
In sleep we’ll remain hopeful


17. BROKEN PROMISE

Arcane events bring new vision
The claws you wield are visible

Echoes of souls you have taken
Cry out, cry out in anguish

I uncloak anger
My anger I have for you
Broken promises
Turned your back on me

Surrendered my own judgment for you
Fell victim to your charm
Surrendered!

Broken promise turned your back on me!
Broken promise turned your back on me!

Found in you no wrong
Would have traded life for you

Arcane events bring new vision
The claws you wield are visible

Souls cry out in anguish!
Souls cry out in anguish!

Would have traded life for you
Found in you no wrong
Found in you no wrong
Would have traded life for you

Broken promise turned your back on me!
Broken promise turned your back on me!

My skin now hardened by mistrust
Fell victim to your charm
Reality awaken by your hollow touch
(Surrendered my own judgment)
Permanent scar now remains

Broken promise!


18. WITHOUT WATER

Hey yo, check the vertical damages
We’ll wrap you up in bandages for real
My heart is made of flesh
My tongue of steel
Eradicating the nervous system
Spinal cord retraction, head lock
We flowin’ rugged and nappy
Like Jamaican dreadlocks
Eclectic episodes
This cat is maulin’ on blocks
And I’ll have you spinnin’
Like a dozen of beers crawlin’ on rocks
And ya state of self corrodes
It’s like I told you before
You can’t walk through the profits
Without livin’ the raw
Knockin’ on doors
Sometimes I had to sleep on the floor
With nothing but steady oxygen
And spit flows for dinner
We’d be burning in the summer
Freezing in the winter
We’d be rockin’ the latest flip flops
To avoid the wooden splinters
From the depths of the grimy earth
Until I reach the heavenly borders
From the depths of the grimy earth
Like four dogs without water
And yo I peeped it from the get
I saw them coming
Through peripheral lenses
Military action for my defenses
Take ya chances with these dogs
And this fortified gate
And if you think ya rhymes
Are phat you better gain some weight
Gain some weight!

Sleep in my wounds
Crawl through
Attend to the hives
The dragons shall elude
Slave

Speak your foundations
Words that guide
Dwell within without water
Left of kin
Dry

Inflammatory languages
Serpents from inside
Setting
Blind with no advantages
The roots evolve into the fire
Wasted
Idle talk supposing dead
Selfish
Cursed is the womb that lies infested

Cracked bones inflicted
Secreting all the parts of thine
Search for purpose weighs
Aim the arrows at this heart of mine
Dehydrated left to die
Man of earth scheduled to expire
Smothered by desires

Where’s my brethren
I hold you close to my heart
More precious than the gold
Friend

I will build you up
Drink this breath of mine
Jars of clay without water
Quench the blaze
Drench

Hey yo, coma’s coming through
With service and a smile reaction
I told you on beyond reasonable
The first song was faction
At the time the death was comfortable
Left to die in a ditch
At the time my breath was combustible
So my scars would stitch
Slow bleed, reflections of black gloves on a fist
Unleash the hounds if they try to resist

The heart reveals
The man to himself
The sharks shall conceal
The vibrant man from himself
Still tempted by the palaces of the earth
Symptoms of a devil
Stones that cast a shadow
Spitting flesh with words
Black hole yearning
The flesh still now burning
Appetite of the vermin shall persuade


DISC 2

1. WHITE GALLERY

You feel the nearness of compulsion
Slow creeping fear inside of me
No reason to escape the assault
No reason to break my world

No more twisted illusion, or are they real
Born to a second illusion to kill yourself
No reason to escape the assault
No reason to break the world

White gallery

Why don’t you put me to death?

Take my hand and rescue me
Escape from an obstinate memory
No reason to escape the assault
No reason to break my world

Remember yourself in fear
Distortion of life so near
Illusion of death comes slow
It’d be the wrong way to fall

You feel the nearness of compulsion
Slow creeping fear inside of me
No reason to break the assault
No reason to escape my world

Buried in my own privacy
Locked out from humanity
No reason to escape the assault
No reason to break the world

White gallery

Why don’t you put me to death?


2. INTO THE GRAVE

Enter the gates, gates to madness
You feel that the end is near
You know that your end is hear
Shadows from hell reflect in your mind
Into the dark side you go for eternal rest

Winds of death are blowing cold
Annihilated earth is what it leaves behind

Funeral in the night, open grave
Your coffin stands open
Your face is pale
Servants of the dark are taking you
Into the dark soil you descend your soul

Into the darkness, into the grave
Your life on earth belongs to the past
Into eternal death, your faith has died
Into the darkness, into the grave

Face the death
Look him in the eye
You can’t turn back
Once you’ve come this far
Pray for your life
To a non-existing god
Realize that it’s over

Into the darkness, into the grave
Your life on earth belongs to the past
Into eternal death, your faith has died
Into the darkness, into the grave


3. CRUSH THE CENOTAPH

Naked bodies stand in line
Waiting for their turn to die
Echoes of tormented souls
Slaughter that has been unfold
Frenzied eyes look into the past
Wasteland forever it will last

Hatred has returned
The cross that now will burn
Result of centuries
The prophet only sees

Chambers, incineration, death
Ashes blown away by divine breath
Almighty hand closes the book of lies
Eternal peace is glowing from their eyes

Fifty years, the overkill begins
From the graves the bodies will rest in
People deny their sickened sides
Wars, they are sacred rites


4. THE IMMORTALS

Rise
My armies with power
From hell we march

When all their power’s gone and nothing’s left but shame
We are the evil ones, a pestilence they say
We tear their souls apart by just being what we are
And to forever be the ones to blame

There’s nothing here for us in their world of love and trust
We vomit in their eyes and face them with disgust
We are the tyrants of the darkness as they say
And we will never obey

So rise
My armies with power
From hell we march

We leave your god behind, he’s shaking with fright
See the hatred in our eyes shining so bright
Possessed by hell itself we stand up to charge
And rise from the flames

This is the time for vengeance now their end is near
We strike with hateful power, we have no fear
We are the immortals of a never ending race
And we shall fight ‘til the end

Now the time has come
For all the fools to pray
Come on, face the slayer
Now’s your time to pay

So rise, immortals
With power and might
We slay


5. FLAGELLATION

Pleasure in pain
Desire of mortification
To achieve the extreme
To know the ultimate

To be a slave for a moment
The body offered up to cruelty
To the lash which whips on the skin
Which slashes the flesh
Lacerates the back

To feel the blood
Thick and warm
Flow over my wounds

Flagellation
Flagellation

To thrust aside the limits
To say “yes!” to death
Without fear, without remorse
To give up oneself to torture

Punishment and reward
The whip is ambiguous
It distills vice
In a perverse refinement

To be a slave for a moment
The body offered up to cruelty
To the lash which whips on the skin
Which slashes the flesh
Lacerates the back


6. WHATEVER THAT HURTS

Decoction of Jimsonweed
Slimy trailing plants distil
Claustrophobia and blood mixed seed
Cursed downstairs against my will

Cobweb sticks to molten years
Cockroaches served with cream
I wipe the silver bullet tears
And with every tear a dream

With every tear a dream

Honey tea, psilocybe larvae
Honeymoon, silver spoon
Psilocybe tea

Energy trickles with the tide
Masterminds and the suicide squad
Drink acid water by my side
Stake the saviour of their daily fraud

Overfilled toothpaste tubes
Sleepless and timeless faces
Drippety drop on sugar cubes
The one eyed’s eye twinkles and gazes

Twinkles and gazes

Honey tea, psilocybe larvae
Honeymoon, silver spoon
Psilocybe tea

Honey tea, psilocybe larvae
Honeymoon, silver spoon
Psilocybe tea

Psilocybe tea
Psilocybe tea
Psilocybe tea
Psilocybe tea


7. NEPENTHE

Think about all the good in your life
(It’s only temporary)
Think about all the positive sides in life
(They never last forever)

So drink to forget and drown all your sorrow
Bury your dreams and choose mind refinery

All the tears and the fears
And the lies and the cries and the...
(Nepenthe)
All the tears and the fears
And the lies and the cries of the past

When the light of the chosen has died
When the master is slave to his life

All the tears and the fears
And the lies and the cries and the...
(Forget)
All the hate that you hate
And the hate for you, my love

When the light of chosen has died
It is time to do something right
For once, goddamned!

So drink to forget and drown all your sorrow
Bury your dreams and choose catharsis!

When the light of the chosen has died
When the master is slave to his life

All the tears and the fears
And the lies and the cries and the...
(Revenge)
All the hate in the world
Is the power to bring you down!

When the light of chosen has died
It is time to pay back for their crimes


8. STRANGE MACHINES

It has always been in the back of my mind
Dreaming about going to the corners of time
I always wanted to fly in strange machines

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And feel it with my hands
Touch the World War II and Cleopatra
Flying...

Could it be that my dream would come true?
Building a machine that would actually do
What I want it to do

Russian Revolution
Let’s do that in one day
Beethoven and Gershwin
I think that would be o.k.
More than anything I wanna fly
In strange machines

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And see it with my eyes
Watch Jesus rise if he ever did
Flying...

I wanna do centuries in a lifetime
And feel it with my hands
Touch the Renaissance and the Chaka Khan
Flying...


9. OPIUM

Opium
Desire or will?
Inspiration bound from an elegant seed

Subversion, through smoke I foresee
Erotic motions of lesser gods in ecstasy

Opium
Bring me forth another dream
Spawn worlds of flesh and red
Little jewels of atrocity

Opium
I sleep in debauchery
And burn with you
When you burn in me

Opium
We fantasize
As we fuse with your root
You are a strange flower
We are your strangest fruit

Opium
It burns in me and you
Opium
It burns for me and for you

“Por isso eu tomo opio é um remédio.
Sou um convalescente do Momento.
Moro no rés do chão do Pensamento
E ver passar a vida faz-me tédio.”
(Fernando Pessoa)


10. ARCHON

Vision comes true
A dead man that returns
A mythic horse pronounces him
As an emperor returned

Archon
The shadows call
Archon
The planets call
The echoes in the other world
“Emeron, I’m over all”

Followed by black moves
Contrast the white horse
Aliens’ dark motives
The army of the beloved

Archon
The shadows call
Archon
The planets call
The echoes in the other world
“Emeron, I’m over all”

The chapter goes right
The prophecy will be done
Time signed the last king
Who’s buried under ice?

Vision comes true
A dead man that returns
A mythic horse pronounces him
As an emperor returned

Archon
The shadows call
Archon
The planets call
The echoes in the other world
“Emeron, I’m over all”


11. SOUL POSSESSED

Transformed into the night
I’m at one with the dark
I have life within my strength
Yet it feels like I’m dead

I feel hate!

Born as a man
Raised as a demon
Only death will do us apart
The beast in my inner self awakes

A lord from within
A demon inside
Together as one
We will grow strong

We feel hate!

The wrath I feel inside
Is like the devil himself
This feeling I have learned to love
Has corrupted my soul

A lord from within
A demon inside
Together as one
We will grow strong


12. OCEANS RISE

Deify the depths of intimate caprice
The noble morsel of the grand eternity

Face the furious and black domain
From where all the wisdom once came

In the eyes of the elementary existence
May the fallen of eternity explode

As a weak and stunning flare
Yet so completed and clear

When the oceans rise and thunder calls
The shape of furious manners fall
Where the oceans rise

Between dimensions asunder
The maze of fragmented flare
Harvest the pain of the will and despair
Where the seeds of chaos grow

Where the almighty substance bow
Millenniums are falling
Millenniums are calling
Hail! The dawn of a new era


13. DESTINY CALLS

Who holds the secret?
Who sets my destiny?
When will I find out
What lies in the path for me?
Who bears this knowledge?
The secrets of all to be
Foretell my future
Is the answer inside to see?

So I stand up and shout at the world
For my questions to be
But the powers are out of my reach
Here I am still right back from the start

Destiny’s calling
Leaving my future to be
Destiny’s calling
Screaming in anger
My thoughts are out of reach

Who’ll light my way now?
Now that I stand alone
My past still haunts me
My friend is my enemy

So I stand up and shout at the world
For my questions to be
But the powers are out of my reach
Here I am still right back from the start

Destiny’s calling
Leaving my future to be
Destiny’s calling
Screaming in anger
My thoughts are out of reach

I hold my soul inside of my hands
The future is my past

So I stand up and shout at the world
For my questions to be
But the powers are out of my reach
Here I am still right back from the start

Destiny’s calling
Leaving my future to be
Destiny’s calling
Screaming in anger
My thoughts are out of reach

I hold my soul inside of my hands
The future is my past


14. MY WINGS

Slip out the door and fly
I’m lost in time
I hover as an angel, I hover
Embracing all myself I reel
Through the storm that is shaking me
I don’t know where
I don’t know why
I know I’m not going to fall

Butterflies are flying right beside me
(Fly away)
As I ascend to the clouds

No, I won’t delay
No, I won’t delay
Time is like a knife for me now
I just won’t delay

No, I won’t delay
No, I won’t delay
Time is like a knife for me now
I just won’t delay

(Time is mine)
(I got the blade)
(Change your mind)
(I’ll make you stay)

Slip out the door and fly
I’m lost in time
I hover as an angel, I hover
Embracing all myself I reel
Through the storm that is shaking me
I don’t know where
I don’t know why
I know I’m not going to fall

Butterflies are flying right beside me
(Fly away)
As I ascend to the clouds

No, I won’t delay
No, I won’t delay
Time is like a knife for me now
I just won’t delay

No, I won’t delay
No, I won’t delay
Time is like a knife for me now
I just won’t delay

(Time is mine)
(I got the blade)
(Change your mind)
(I’ll make you stay)

Butterflies are flying
And I just won’t delay

No, I won’t delay
No, I won’t delay
Time is like a knife for me now
I just won’t delay

No, I won’t delay
No, I won’t delay
Time is like a knife for me now
I just won’t delay

(Time is mine)
(I got the blade)
(Change your mind)
(I’ll make you stay)


15. SEED OF HATE

The shape of all my doubts
My fear
Come closer
Trust me

Here I stand in the falling rain
There is no joy inside these tears
I see the world through a twisted and bitter stare
To be where I have been
To see what I have seen

Is it a dream?
Or can I believe?
The memories will haunt me
For evermore

The shape of all my doubts
My fear
Come closer
I trusted you

I am not the man you used to know
I am different, everything is different now
When you left me you planted a seed of hate in me
Nothing is stronger, stronger than this

Is it a dream?
Or can I believe?
The memories will haunt me
For evermore

Is it a dream?
Or can I believe?
The memories will haunt me
For evermore

Is it a dream?
Or can I believe?


16. THE ONE YOU ARE

Slip into my outfit
Dress up like it shall be
I’m correct, I’m an ideal
There are thousands to be led
To be led

I see divine visions
We’ll rise as high as the sky

I look into the mirror
Is this my face I see?
I’m deeply involved into a brand new hast
And I hear him say:

“Break the chains that tie you down and be again the one you are!”
“Lift the weakness off your heart and be again the one you are!”

You’re like the rolling thunder
Your heart is made of steel
Undefeated on the field of honour

I believe, he is holy
Electrifying each and every soul

I look into the mirror
Is this my face I see?
I’m deeply involved into a brand new hast
And I hear him say:

“Break the chains that tie you down and be again the one you are!”
“Lift the weakness off your heart and be again the one you are!”

You’re like the rolling thunder
Your heart is made of steel
Undefeated on the field of honour

Oh! My dear husband
Open your frozen heart
I miss so much of you
Where has all your love gone?

(And she says:)
“Break the chains that tie your soul and be again the one you are!”
“Lift the shadows off your heart and be again the one you are!”

“Are you still the loving father your children can look up to?”
“Open your heart again for humanity!”


17. THE WONDERS AT YOUR FEET

Deeper shades of red descending
Smear our names, the stains unending

Turn forgiveness
Break the lens distorted
Crush the infidel and turn about
Famine in our hearts
Bring up the silence louder
Eradicate the lungs and take us higher

These are the wonders at your feet
These are the wonders at your...

Weighed upon a wider scale
Afraid to see what takes us down

Sing destruction
Sing of unfulfillment
Search abandoned
Let the blood be fevered
Ridden of the self provided things get easier
Ignite our minds and let’s burn brighter

These are the wonders at your feet

These are the wonders at your feet!

These are the wonders at your feet
These are the wonders at your feet
These are the wonders at your...


DISC 3

1. HISTORY OF HATE

Thousands of years
Ruling of the power
Power and the glory
And aristocrat terror
Never ever justice
Never equality
Underdogs born underdogs
Never become free
Talented and given
No matter if or not
No chance for a better life
The poor burned hot

Religious warriors slaughter and mutilate
Justice is always a minute too late
The rich get richer, the poor poorer
The way the third world got treated by emperors

Sucked out colonies
Beggars on their knees
The cross was taught
Taught by the sword

The peasant owed
Their will is bowed
Treated like shit
Paid with spit

Feeling the boot in the neck
Upraise people let ‘em all wreck
Hoping for revolution
2000 years
The weak is fucked
Forever he bears


2. MORBID WAY TO DIE

You are captured in a forgotten world
Where blood is fire and death is god
You feel lonely but you’re not
Surrounded by mutants you will rot

Your end is near
You are going insane
You are still alive
Slowly rotting inside

It’s a morbid way to die!

Your life fades away as you wish for death
You beg for help to take your last breath
The plague has arrived, you will turn to dust
Putrefacted body rotten inside

Your end is near
You are going insane
You are still alive
Slowly rotting inside

It’s a morbid way to die!

It’s a morbid way to die!

Brought to die among the gods
Your flesh is dust
In your dreams you are lost

Morbid way to die
Morbid way to die


3. MANITOU

Across infernal wastelands many miles of sunburnt hell
Tribes are scattered limbs and dust all laying as they fell
Open lies the challenge to all warriors now men
Let the spirits guide the winds until Manitou ascends

Manitou
Manitou
Manitou
Manitou

Watch the unseen burial eclipse the blazing skies
Feast the wings of death with Manitou the soul shall vie
Distant beats the war dance echo screams out liberty
Patience stalks the crow, white man’s scalp brings victory

Manitou
Manitou
Manitou
Manitou

Mighty be the powers of the old medicine man
Whispers of his rain dance flow across the desert sands
Guardian of the elder spirit summoning the storm
Awaiting his arrival, Manitou of flesh is born

Manitou
Manitou
Manitou
Manitou


4. THE DARK ONE

Stalking through the utter dark
Evil eyes glow in the distance
Prepared for a battle in rage
The end for the cruel adventurer

Blow to side
Strike through eye

A battle-axe wields to charge
And separates head from body
Darkest blood flowing free
My eyes are filled with pleasure

Blow to side
Strike through eye

A hunt for an ancient treasure
No herbs to restore his life
To die by an orchish arrow
Victorious the Olog-hai

Slow you’ll die
The dark one smiles


5. FUCKIN-4-$$$

6. SYSTEM’S FAILING

The system is failing
The common man
Well the rich get richer
It’s a part of the plan, yeah!

Paranoia, that’s the government
It’s our only source of our discountence

The system is failing
For you and me
The game spirit
Just God could misguide Cain, yeah!

Brutality is what the nations saw
Doling me doesn’t help at all
Wake up!

The system is failing
Justice is burning
The people are calling for order
The system is failing
The common man

With crimes are showing even on TV
You can beat the system
Disgrace meets penury, yeah!

Insanity with an evil past
In deepest chaos you forgot our past
That gotta bit the crime

The system is failing
Justice is burning
The people are calling for order
The system is failing
The common man

The system is failing
The common man
I won’t be untold
I will follow the plan
Adolph before me
Poison survive
The victim of feelings
Laughing behind the door

Paranoia, that’s the government
It’s our only source of our discountence

The system is failing
Justice is burning
The people are calling for order
The system is failing
The common man

The system is failing
Justice is burning
The people are calling for order
The system is failing


7. ATAEGINA

Na Ara da Vida jaz uma morte
A ti te lanco a minha sorte
Ataegenia triade fatal
Palida Deusa, doce e teu mal

Centenas de corvos sobre a rochedo
Cantam em coro historias de Medo
De Primaveras que a morte abraca
Em ti encontram a sua desgraca

Devotio Ver Sacrum
Devotio Consecratio
Capitis Dirae
Rainha da Noite, Rainha Natura
Saudoso berco primaveril

Devotio Ver Sacrum
Devotio Consecratio
Capitis Dirae
Rainha da Noite, Rainha Natura
Saudoso berco primaveril

Ja se choram filhos perdidos
Para terras amargas sem retorno
Onde a voz dos Deuses Perdidos
Bebe o povo o sangue do corno

Corcas alvas trazen esperanca
Lembram destinos, a vitoria
Nobre Guerra, furiosa danca
Do po sai um rumor de gloria

Devotio Ver Sacrum
Devotio Consecratio
Capitis Dirae
Rainha da Noite, Rainha Natura
Saudoso berco primaveril

Devotio Ver Sacrum
Devotio Consecratio
Capitis Dirae
Rainha da Noite, Rainha Natura
Saudoso berco primaveril

Devotio Ver Sacrum
Devotio Consecratio
Capitis Dirae
Rainha da Noite, Rainha Natura
Saudoso berco primaveril

Devotio Ver Sacrum
Devotio Consecratio
Capitis Dirae
Rainha da Noite, Rainha Natura
Saudoso berco primaveril


8. ADRENALINE

What makes you forget is the structure
You’re in all your life
Can’t you feel there is the animal inside?
Growing roots, still, inside your mind

Suppress your underbeing and let them rule
You don’t care, yeah!
You don’t give a damn as long as you’ve got your car
Do you actually go so far as giving in your adrenaline away?


9. INDIFFERENT

Three a.m. and my TV has an interesting program for me
A girl had won the biggest prize in commercial history
I try to walk with her, but she just passed away
And then she sits on glory’s throne, but in my room it’s cold again

Four a.m. and my machine’s got the next big hit on the screen
A worst-case in a power plant, they’d lost control surprisingly
I try to deal with it, but things just passed away
And while they play with elements, in my room it’s cold again

And I feel quite indifferent
And I feel quite indifferent
Outside there is indifference
So I feel quite indifferent

Five a.m., no sleep in sight my little vision-thing sells more delight
A crisis in the western world, but solution is in sight
I try to get things clear, but life just passed away
And as they drop the bomb on it, in my room it’s cold again

In my room it’s cold again
In my room it’s cold again

Six a.m., God said ‘Hi’ to me and tells me that he lost belief
When time and space collide without getting into confusion
Around me all the chaos shines, in my world it’s cold again
Around me all the chaos shines, in my world it’s cold again

And I feel quite indifferent
And I feel quite indifferent
Outside there is indifference
So I feel quite indifferent


10. NOAH

All the love I give to you
You take away
And all the love you bring to me
I take away

Release the pain
From all the love that I give
Don’t take away
From all the love that I give

Yeah I’ve been through denial
Yeah I’ve been self-deprived
What will it take?
What will it take of my friends?
...of my friends?
...of my friends?
...of my friends?

I’ve been through denial
I’ve been self-deprived
What will it take to feel again?

No!
You can be working on me
Don’t take away
All the love that I give

Yeah I’ve been through denial
Yeah I’ve been self-deprived
What will it take?
What will it take of my friends?
...of my friends?
...of my friends?
...of my friends?

I’ve been through denial
I’ve been self-deprived
What will it take to feel again?
I’ve been through denial
I’ve been self-deprived
What will it take to feel again?

...of my friends
All the love I give of my friends
All the love you give of my friends
All the love I give of my friends
All the love you give of my friends
All the love I give of my friends
All the love you give of my friends
All the love you give of my friends
...of my friends


11. DIGGING THE GRAVE

It would be wrong to ask you why
Because I know what goes inside
It’s only half of what comes out
Isn’t that what it’s about?
To remind us we’re alive
To remind us we’re not blind
In that big, black hole
Comfortable

Digging the grave
I got it made

Let something in or throw something out?
You left the door open wide

I know you have a reason why
That knot is better left untied
I just went and undid mine
It takes some time
And the shadows so big
It takes the sun out of the day
And the feeling goes away
If you close the door
Comfortable

Digging the grave
I got it made

Let something in or throw something out?
You left the door open wide

Comfortable

Digging the grave
I got it made

Let something in or throw something out?
You left the door open wide


12. THE JOURNEY THROUGH TIME

(No lyrics available)


13. DIVA SATANICA

Divine queen of evil
Sowing her seeds of hate
Mistress of pain
Diva Satanica
Master of temptation

Medusa, abuser
Both beast and beauty
Seducer, she’ll use you
Bring you to your knees

Blinded by her infinite beauty
You are lured into the temple
The smell of incense burning
This carnal pleasure yearning

Bride of Satan
Transgress the rules of this world
Too late you realize
This love is ripping you apart

Medusa, abuser
Both beast and beauty
Seducer, she’ll use you
As fodder for her dreams

Drinking the blood, eating the flesh
She’s getting high on you
Watching you die gives her a thrill
There is always more blood to spill


14. COLORS

Walking in the subway
Alone late at night
New York City gangs
Everywhere in sight

Your feel their anger upon you
You feel their hateful eyes
Walk a little faster now
You’re fighting for your life

As they walk on closer
Their eyes burn down your back
You feel a thousand cries
Not prepared for their attack

A mission bell sent sign
A sign that you board soon
You’ve come this far, no turning back
We hope you make it too

Don’t expect sympathy
We don’t know the word
Your walked my turf, insanity
But in this place you die

Your life is wasted
Your blood is tasted
As it drips down the blade
You didn’t make it
You couldn’t take it
You walked the subway you paid

Your money’s gone
Your clothes they’re torn
You’re lying in a pool of blood
You know you’re leaving
We watch you grieving
But in this place you die

Don’t expect sympathy
We don’t know the word
Your walked my turf, insanity
But in this place you die

You walk my turf
You’re gonna fuckin’ die!


15. CHILDREN OF THE UNDERWORLD

We are the children of the underworld
We are the children of the long lost dream
We lie in wait for our time to come
Floating on a never-ending stream

Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day
Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day

We are the masters of decadence
We are the rulers of the deep
We aim for the final lucidity
The pristine, twenty-four carat sleep

Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day
Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day

We lie in wait for our time to come
We are the children of the underworld

Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day

Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day
Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day
Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day
Make no stay
Meet us all by break of day


16. SEAS OF SLIME

(No lyrics available)


17. EXPOSURE

Rise I say, yes, rise above!
‘Cause evil is as evil does what evil does to me
Down you go to lands below
‘Cause evil is as evil does what evil does to me

They who reign in sand take this brightest strike
In their so-called castles now with walls of glass
I can see, I can see, I can see
All your deeds, all your needs, on your knees
So I’ll crack your feeble shell

Can you even see the works of what you fear?
‘Cause evil is as evil does what evil does to me
Further inside ‘til all you have is mine
Evil is as evil does what evil’s done to me

Dreams he said, dreams he wore
Dreams he wore, dreams he wore
Hope he said, hope he wore
Evil he said and evil he wore

I’ll strip you down
I’ll tear you down
I’ll burden you with tears
I’ll bring you down
‘Til nails come off
I’ll turn your bed of lies
Dreams upon a night
Dreams upon your thoughts
Dreams upon your fears
And dreams upon your love

Blind to your eyes, blind to your mind
‘Cause evil is what evil does what evil does to me
Taste and you’ll see the fruit you took is foul
Evil is what evil does what evil does to me

You who turn to others with everything you lack
A face that bears not seeing then I’ll turn my back
I can see, I can see, I can see
All your deeds, all your needs, on your knees
So I’ll crack your fuckin’ shell
