Lyrics

1. TRAPPED IN THE NIGHT

What was that noise
Off in the dark?
Something that's poised
Waiting to spring
And rend her flesh
She is the victim

Her cheeks are wet
They taste of salt
Her innocence
Won't go unharmed
Only fifteen, there's no escaping her plight

She runs aimlessly, trapped in the night
Fleeing from monsters and murderous wights
The trees around her are
Malevolent beings, fiends who'll hunt her down
The ground is painted red with her blood

He runs alone
With nothing there
To help to guide him
The stars are lost
Amongst the clouds
Their light won't find him

Oh how he cries
Tears in his eyes
His innocence
Will come to harm
Only thirteen, there's no escaping, no flight

He runs aimlessly, trapped in the night
Fleeing from monsters and murderous wights
The trees around him are
Malevolent beings, fiends who'll hunt him down
The ground is painted red with his blood

She runs aimlessly, trapped in the night
Fleeing from monsters and murderous wights
The trees around her are
Malevolent beings, fiends who'll hunt her down
The ground is painted red with her blood


2. AND YOU CRY

Chained down hands and feet you find yourself
With pain shooting through your every single limb
Deprived of sight you have to feel around
But there are walls on every single side and

They seem to be closing in on you
Shivering with fear you feel the panic rising

And you cry
With your chest constricting and your
Sightless eyes
They are burning holes into your
Aching head
You heart is failing and you are
Filled with dread
Fear consumes your soul

You find you hands clawing at something
Just to realize it's your face they're scarring
Frantically you go on pawing
The warmth of your own blood almost soothing

Leering hateful faces fill your head
Jeering voices that want you dead

And you cry
With your chest constricting and your
Sightless eyes
They are burning holes into your
Aching head
You heart is failing and you are
Filled with dread
Fear consumes your soul

Leering hateful faces fill your head
Jeering voices that want you dead

And you cry
With your chest constricting and your
Sightless eyes
They are burning holes into your
Aching head
You heart is failing and you are
Filled with dread
Fear consumes your soul

And you cry
With your chest constricting and your
Sightless eyes
They are burning holes into your
Aching head
You heart is failing and you are
Filled with dread
Fear consumes your soul


3. WHO'S GONNA BURY ME

The ground is wet
Underneath my boots when I walk again
Across this old graveyard
Tombstones
Sight with me when I start to
Digging my way

Oh feel my arms aching
Oh feel the soil braking

Who's gonna bury me, when I'm old and done?
Who's gonna lay my bones to their everlasting home?

Buried my father
And everyone I ever knew
No daughter, nor son to get me through
I'm ageing with these
Trees around me and the stones sigh
As I pass them by

Oh feel the times changing
Oh feel my arms aching

Who's gonna bury me, when I'm old and done?
Who's gonna lay my bones to their everlasting home?

Oh feel my heart breaking

Who's gonna bury me, when I'm old and done?
Who's gonna lay my bones to their everlasting home?


4. DAGON

Down in darkness
In the ocean
Lies the baleful lair of the deep ones

Part monsters
Part human
Life eternal live these creatures

Done their deed
Done their duty
Sacrificed their lives for his glory

Another breed
Lost their beauty
Ain't from tales for bedtime story

Plunge down there and meet your fate
Worship him or confront his hate

DAGON - The elder god of evil
DAGON - Before his might you'll kneel
DAGON - Or devour you he will
DAGON - And no one hears your squeal

Sleepy village
Hides a secret
They revere this ancient demon

All arrivals
Will be tied up
And then offered for ascription

Of the females
All the fertiles
Have to bear a scion for him

Spare the details
For causing thirlls
Of those children's deformed limbs

Plunge down there and meet your fate
Worship him or confront his hate

DAGON - The elder god of evil
DAGON - Before his might you'll kneel
DAGON - Or devour you he will
DAGON - And no one hears your squeal

Plunge down there and meet your fate
Worship him or confront his hate

DAGON - The elder god of evil
DAGON - Before his might you'll kneel
DAGON - Or devour you he will
DAGON - And no one hears your squeal

DAGON - The elder god of evil
DAGON - Before his might you'll kneel
DAGON - Or devour you he will
DAGON - And no one hears your squeal


5. TILL DEATH TEARS APART

In a dim room lies this
Old and bitter man
Hence the gnawing illness
It is all he can

Grievous pain he suffers
Enormous agony
It nearly crushes him but
Still he wants to be

Alive to avenge the
Loved one he once had
Departed violently
By murderer gone mad

Devoting rest his life to
Getting his revenge
Never found the killer
Hatred had to quench

Sorrow, has overwhelmed his mind
Hollow, is his life of some kind
Shadows, lives within his heart and
Follows, till death tears apart

Time is standing still but
He just holds on tight
Blinded by the fact that
He can't win this fight

Now the Death has arrived to
Reap this draw so sour
Only waiting for the
Raven winged hour

Sorrow, has overwhelmed his mind
Hollow, is his life of some kind
Shadows, lives within his heart and
Follows, till death tears apart

Sorrow, has overwhelmed his mind
Hollow, is his life of some kind
Shadows, lives within his heart and
Follows, till death tears apart


6. TROOPS OF ARMAGEDDON

Ages has man walked the globe
And ruled on top of the food chain
All along without hasitation
Abused, raped and looted the earth

Till one day we woke some menacing
Evil that is hard to explain
Lain dormant it had for eons
Proving now, what it's worth

The predators has turned to the prey
There is nothing more to do but to pray

The legion of batwinged devils unleashed
Seeding destruction, they can't be appeased
Annihilating the mankind, blood darkens the sun
When dust has settled, survivors are none

The formation of grisly demons
Maiming everyone on their path
Followed by the metallic monsters
Leaving behind the scorched earth

The cohort of rude behemouths
Tears down every stucture with wrath
When it comes your turn to face them
You will regret your birth

The day of the doom has arrived
The troops of Armageddon ride

The legion of batwinged devils unleashed
Seeding destruction, they can't be appeased
Annihilating the mankind, blood darkens the sun
When dust has settled, survivors are none

The legion of batwinged devils unleashed
Seeding destruction, they can't be appeased
Annihilating the mankind, blood darkens the sun
When dust has settled, survivors are none


7. SHADOWS FALL

Shades appear around you

As you lie down to sleep

Silent whispers in the dark
Horrid shapes, deformities
Cringe and close your eyes
Beg the horrors, "leave me be"
Alone you face your beast
Shuddering as you weep

Shadows fall, the night's here
Faces haunt my dreams
Cries from times forgotten
Of Old evils

Visions roam your mind
Sunken cities, forgotten crimes
From dark corners of the earth
Tales from wicked times
Yield to the fear
Alone and battered in the dark
The nightmare now reality
A hollow shell, insanity

Shadows fall, the night's here
Faces haunt my dreams
Cries from times forgotten
Of Old evils

Shadows fall, the night's here
Faces haunt my dreams
Cries from times forgotten
Of Old evils


8. THE HEADSMAN

The morning sun beam
Finds a man in black
With cruel face, no marks of grace

The tools of his trade
Seem scary on the back
Against a wall, he uses them all

Seeing him makes grown men weep
The eyes of him their flesh to creep
And his axe puts them to sleep eternal

Doomed in line waiting for the call
Staring at the traces of blood all around
Fear lined faces hearing the sound
Of the man's head dropping to the floor

Falling axe sprays blood on the wall
Another head to the top of the mound
Quiet whining echoes from the walls
The last words before the blood pours

Master of his craft
Everybody scare
His gloomy skill, it is to kill

In solitude lives he
Cause no one dare
To be with him, his name is grim

Seeing him makes grown men weep
The eyes of him their flesh to creep
And his axe puts them to sleep eternal

Doomed in line waiting for the call
Staring at the traces of blood all around
Fear lined faces hearing the sound
Of the man's head dropping to the floor

Falling axe sprays blood on the wall
Another head to the top of the mound
Quiet whining echoes from the walls
The last words before the blood pours


9. THEY'LL EAT US

Our days are numbered, one will be the last
When lived lives start sliding to the past
They await us then under the ground
Those slimy creatures down there abound

They'll eat us
Defeat us
They will feast with our rotting flesh

We're equal
Ones sequel
Our white bones they will caress

The feasting starts when we are laid
To rest in our crowded grave
In the end there's just a pile of bone
Under a cold and lonely headstone

They'll eat us
Defeat us
They will feast with our rotting flesh

We're equal
Ones sequel
Our white bones they will caress

They'll eat us
Defeat us
They will feast with our rotting flesh

We're equal
Ones sequel
Our white bones they will caress


10. MOONLIGHT SHADOW

The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Lost in a river last saturday night
Far away on the other side
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through

The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven one day

Four A.M. in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star was glowing in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
But she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven one day

Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
The night was heavy but the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven one day


11. BURNING FLESH

Bound and gagged
By her hair
She is dragged
To a fate of fame and pain

She was just
She'd done no harm
And still we lust
To see her die in agony

God is pleased when we kill his enemies

The smell of burning flesh
Fills the air around us
The heat is her defeat
She lights our hearts with hope
Her inhuman screams
Carried on the wind
Tell all of mankind
That the evil witch is dead

She seemed serene
In the face of it
Though she could plainly see
That her fate was sealed with certainty

We have made
Orphans of
Her little ones
But God will take care for them

God is pleased when we kill his enemies

The smell of burning flesh
Fills the air around us
The heat is her defeat
She lights our hearts with hope
Her inhuman screams
Carried on the wind
Tell all of mankind
That the evil witch is dead

The smell of burning flesh
Fills the air around us
The heat is her defeat
She lights our hearts with hope
Her inhuman screams
Carried on the wind
Tell all of mankind
That the evil witch is dead

The smell of burning flesh
Fills the air around us
The heat is her defeat
She lights our hearts with hope
Her inhuman screams
Carried on the wind
Tell all of mankind
That the evil witch is dead
