1. STRANGE FACTS IN THE CASE OF P.E.BRUSS

"I've always had a feeling for the thing beyond - the Intangible, the shadowy.
Out of the shadows we glimpse
The yawning fangs of the Eternal..."


2. ELABORATE FUNERALS

Lo! I hear my funeral toll, let those bells be still Forever,
Broken now my mortal shell, my enemies,
They wished me hell & here in state I'm laid to fester.
Fools! They loved me for my wealth,
My castle keep & all its splendor
One by one they came to call, they gathered in my entrance Hall,
I fooled them all those vile pretenders!

How shall my bequest now be read?
My requiem how be sung?
How surprised you all must be to see my face -
The plan has worked, the trap is sprung! Avaunt, Avaunt!
From the crypt below I have emerged from death's embrace.
My experiments have brought me back from hell
To put you down there in my place -
Behold the devil's face!

Death becomes an art & you are on display
Corpses play your parts in my gruesome masquerade!


3. ASTROPHOBOS

In the midnight heavens lurking reaching from extinguished Stars,
Horrid beings with wretched yearnings from ethereal depths Afar.
Where we told ourselves we were shining worlds of happiness Unknown,
Little did we know were hiding armies serving Yuggoth's Throne!
Winged wraiths in black descend with the last of sunlight's Rays.
Veiny wings & claws extend snatching men to stygian haze.
Faceless are their mocking minions as their harvest men's Brains.
Hope dissolving to derision canonized by boundless pain!

Now you've heard the fiendish tale that you took for lies Before -
Men are cattle for their stables, we are this & nothing More!


4. SCEPTIC SPECIES

The rotting trees have snag'd the sun from out the skies
No longer can her light ward off the things who do not die
At night we'll congregate, your gates won't keep you safe
Locks & doors are not the law, with just our touch walls Will fall & fall
Lo! The cold moon rises!
Death metal fiends rise from their graves.
Your wretched faith folds no surprises,
Forsake your cross & be our slaves or we send you to the Grave...


5. ROTTING MASTERS

Masters of morbidity, preachers of the perverse
Forsaking all divinity we've embraced our earthbound curse
Splendid in our decay, like dead trees on the left hand path
Steeped in the wine of decadence, squeezed from grapes of Wrath
Now, the masses all are in a fright
Your rotting masters have arrived, now learn to fear the Night!

Secret enchantments & formulas
Taught to all members who've mastered their arts
Master of the laboratory & command of the beasts that there Haunt -
Join our cult!


6. LURKERS IN THE LAB

Lurkers in my lab search through what's mine,
They're not prepared for what they'll find
Thieves & curious fools all must be taught
Interloping flies in webs are caught
Scientific minds that operate within the laws will never Know
The dark results that I've obtained.
Tricks & traps await those who brave enough to meet their Fate
Those whom I catch will never see the sun again!
Who sent you tonight? Was it my old foe?
He was once a student here, you know!
He sent you here to spy & plagerise
All his ideas came from mine -
You'll see with your own eyes!
My plans demand I have fresh remains,
You'll find my methods quite a pain!


7. MOAT OF BLOOD

Breathe in the nocturnal fumes - the wolf's bane blooms
Undead eyes light up the gloom
The master plan-
At magister's command the graveyard blossoms with dead hands
In dungeons dank we experiment, we members of the secret Guild.
Skulls are drilled & black bile filled,
The mutants are revived then killed
Realizing the world's worst nightmares is our master's Decree
In the name of debauchery & filth we have sworn to the creed
Armies of necroborgs are released - the envoys of the damned
Your society is just a disease & the cure is at hand.


8. LOST AMONG DEAD TREES

Lost! Between the tombs rotting mushrooms have bloomed
The frozen winds swirl, a din of dead fumes
Not strong enough to snuff out her perfume
She is the master here, Her every breath brings new death to The atmosphere
The mirror shows us, she chose us to die
Dead mean don't dream up alibis
I heard the whispers of witches & wargs,
The lullaby that you lust after most
The only reason you fought was to feel the pain
The reassurances you sought should not be in vain
The worm has turned, salted wounds never healed
My secrets have been revealed...


9. THE SHUNNED HOUSE

The Harris house on black street holds our secret still
Standing starkly, leering darkly, looming up there on the Hill.
Her haunted hallways, what horrors do there hide?
Timeless terrors bid their time until that night we went Inside!
We went at nightfall, in through unguarded gates
Basement bound we crossed the grounds to mount our fearful Wait
The burden of our proof, to make ourselves a name
We tempted fate that night for fame
But for his death I'm not to blame! I'm not insane!
His hands upon me, his eyes like liquid dread
He cried out with rotting mouth
The words he said still fill my head:
STAY AWAY!


10. PLASMIC EATERS

(Instrumental)


11. UNNATURAL SCIENCE

Religious thieves of minds & hearts enslave
The young & curious minds
Why do you fear so much the secret arts?
Why must you weaken all mankind?
Secret truths only find the wise,
Those we deem can take the strain
We will show you things that to your eyes would previously Seem insane!
Dragon's blood, antimony & bitter ash,
Glauber's salt & bismuth glance
Ebon behemoths waken from their caverns vast
The spell is cast, they come at last!
Compose your epitaph!


12. THEY CALLED ME MAD

When twin blades raised divide the night,
You'll find me lurking in the moonlight
My eyes pierce deep through shuttered doors,
In through cracks my shadows pour,
My cruel hands grope to steal your hopes,
And traced bruised paths on marbled throats
I'll haunt your children's dreams tonight,
Sing them this song by candlelight!
Tonight I'm calling forth foul fiends,
Brought from the nether planes
And with the end of man's domain,
Dark times will reign again...
