1. THE WAY OF THE MOON

Waiting for stars to take shape
Watching their every position
Fear of what they will tell me
When they shine too bright

The cycle revolves again
Like oil in water I begin
The devil returns from within
The way of the moon is shrouded in sin

Vicious in every way
Unable to stop his spree
My soul's trapped within the monster

Feel the sense of hunger within
Fight the urge to kill the the innocent
Fire in my eyes as I end their lives
Blood covers my hands
I know what I've done

Taking the night from the sky
And give in to the moon and the nightmares I've been tortured by
Watch as the blood of denial trickles in a spiral
Blinding which I have truly become

Taking the night from the sky
And give in to the moon and the nightmares I've been tortured by
Watch as the blood of denial trickles in a spiral
Blinding which I have truly become

My soul's trapped within
I know the monster is me
The way of the moon


2. GRIM REAPER

In my final hours on this earth
Visited by the harvester himself
In an unknown reality
In the dimensions of my mind
Where hell meets earth

I must escape but theres no out
Nowhere to hide, to run is to die
Try to forget the curse of my demise
Let the visions consume my mind
Blighted memories pass through my eyes

Kill with a wretched appetite
He needs me to destroy
With a torture involving blood
I cause limitless pain
Reap the souls of the living
When it's their time to die
An evil I hold within
A black fate you can't escape

Forced to do god's bidding
Told who is to die next
My blood is up to burn
A presence looms over every turn
I feel the heat of his breath

His crystal eyes staring back at me
Piercing holes through my soul

I must escape but theres no out
Nowhere to hide, to run is to die
Try to forget the curse of my demise
Let the visions consume my mind
Blighted memories pass through my eyes

Kill with a wretched appetite
He needs me to destroy
With a torture involving blood
I cause limitless pain
Reap the souls of the living
When it's their time to die
An evil I hold within
A black fate you can't escape

Fresh blood is warm to the touch
Satisfies my hunger for destruction
Of a living mind, tortured on and on
Left to die under his wrath the reaper claims another soul

Windpipe crushing under pressure
Each breath closer to the end
Heat like fire on my skin
Burning up again
Hell is my final destiny


3. SCOURGE

Ritualistic cult of disgust
Sacrifice to an elder being
Blood drains from veins and runs out
The soul of a young girl burns
All that remains is the flesh disposed deep beneath

Antiquarians who knew such things
Of where souls ascend in the afterlife

The scourge of the demented
A most horrific exit
Stripped of life inside and left to burn

A hidden room beyond closed doors whose secret is locked away

The ichor is gathered and bestowed
Vampiristic, they drink of the gore

The scourge of the demented
A most horrific exit
Stripped of life inside and left to burn

Once laid upon the altar, she's innocent
Bloodletting causes flesh to turn pale and lifeless
Gods watch this act of torment, satisfied
Death in the name of those who shall never appear
The sacrifice is complete, it's too late
Cast off to the endless realms of hell to suffer
A most horrific exit
A final expression of terror

The scourge of the demented
A most horrific exit
Stripped of life inside and left to burn
Left to burn


4. DELUSIONS OF MURDER

Enter oblivion's wake
Endless portals of dream
Drifting in and out of sleep
Cannot be this way
Calloused fingers
Caress the smoking gun
The streets are filled with pools of blood

All in a dream
Can't tell what's real
Can't hear my screams
Wake up to the fire

Running out into the night
Thick fog darkens shadows
Days since the light receded
The moon is all I have
Sounds of footsteps close
The dark night conceals me
I live the lucid nightmare
Chaos in my mind

All in a dream
Can't tell what's real
Can't hear my screams
Wake up, wake up

Earthquakes within my soul
I tear myself from this world
I am forever yearning
When there was fire in my eyes
What have you desired that keeps the clock ticking
Keeps the stars spinning
Revolving in my head

All in a dream
Can't tell what's real
Can't hear my screams
Wake up to the fire


5. INTROSPECTION

Bow down to the god who knows all
With ultimate power
He who controls time and space
Force over physical matter
Plagued by mental affliction
Desire to create excellence
The imperfect mind, our creator
Infested with foolishness
We will be consumed by the blaze

The moon shines on the earth
When light reflects off the ocean
The sky is in both planes
Peace in emptiness

You believed him to be the image you need
A figure to guide the light
Introspection

Spit in the eye of the faulty god
Who knows nothing of perfection
He who cannot fathom penance
Ascendance over no creature
They who think the god is righteous
Disciples to imagination
He dreams of divine formation but creates destruction
We will be consumed by the blaze

The moon shines on the earth
When light reflects off the ocean
The sky is in both planes
Peace in emptiness

You believed him to be the image you need
A figure to guide the light
Introspection
