2. REALMS OF CHAOS

Back from the arms of chaos
Into the gleam of perpetual light
I've found my way in the darkness
Now I return as impeccable sign

Searching the land for corruption
Tracing the signs of the weakening faith
Granting no hope of indulgence
I shall devour the fallen from grace

Tremble with fear and surrender
All your mischieving will soon be exposed
Open your mouth and confess now
Don't you believe that your chapter is closed

The dark prevails
It's deep in your mind
The dark prevails
It's killing your kind

And by the sign of the almighty cunt disappear
You upholy spirit of chaos and lust
Don't leave no trace of your wicked existence down here
Cause these are the words of the father we trust

The dark prevails
It's deep in your mind
The dark prevails
It's killing your kind

And now you're done
A perfect defeat
But I'll carry on
No chance for deceit

I see you through
Your nice little ways
You're not true
I withstand your gaze

And by the sign of the almighty cunt disappear
You upholy spirit of chaos and lust
Don't leave no trace of your wicked existence down here
Cause these are the words of the father we trust

And by the sign of the almighty god
We don't care for justice, we don't care a lot


3. OF SHEEP AND SHEPHERDS

From the trinity of Heaven
To the realms of triple six
From the banks of River Jordan
To the waters of the Styx

There is no place that's human
It's just evil or divine
Not a single word to answer
The burning questions of our time

Heal me, save me from this books of law
Clean my wounds just like I did before
No surrender, no more giving in
No more bloody nightmares of a life in deadly sin

If Christianity was sacred
(Or) the Islamic way was right
If Judaism held the truth
Why would we need to fight?

If holy books were worth a dime
Not a question would remain
No business for the lecturers
No need to go insane

And it's here
Where worlds collide
In darkness and despair

Have no fear
Demystify religion
And beware

It can be done
It's nothing wrong
A new life can be found

A better way
To make the day
And break some brand new ground

From the home of holy martyrs
To the very depths of hell
From those who die in fire
To those forever dwell

If holy books were worth a dime
Not a question would remain
No business for the lecturers
No need to go insane

And it's here
Where worlds collide
In darkness and despair


4. HORSE BRIGADE

Beneath the open sky
Across the barren land
We saw many die
Blood was on our hands

An ode to victory
For, oh, so many times
We've written history
Let them hear the chimes

And now we're here
A long, hard ride
We have no fear
And we will fight

And the glory of our days will never fade
No tomorrow, no regrets, it's too late
Pride and passion in the eyes of those who fall

Our mother's tears will flow
And this is not a shame
As soon our fathers know
We've made it to fame

There is no hope for you to try
The wings of death now pierce the sky
There is no place for you to run
The end of days has just begun

We breathe the dusty air
The smoke is all around
Our enemy's everywhere
Waits another round

We wade through pools of blood
Onto the cross we're nailed
We face an awful lot
We came - we saw - we failed


5. HAIL THE NEW AGE

Night falls - out of the silence
Hear the litany begin
To the universe
Lord, have mercy - teach us sin

Into the darkness
Ancient steps shall guide our feet
Melt our arrogance
Take us where believers meet

Blood runs - into the chalice
Feel it stronger than before
To the nameless dead
Come the threshold, come the door

And see - and feel - belief

A chorus of angels singing
So sweet and with rage
The guns and the bells are ringing
And they say hail the new age - HAIL

This is the consequence of all the years of false
Religious tolerance - it has got us by the balls
As long they're few they try to shelter under law
But a majority will raise another holy war

Madness reigns this sacred place
Smiling at the world we face
Now the witch hunt has begun
Soon our mission will be done

A chorus of angels singing
So sweet and with rage
The guns and the bells are ringing
And they say hail the new age


6. VOICE WITHIN

I am the wind that brings the rain
A sudden lightning from the sky
I drive the wicked world insane
Make believe that everyone must die

I am the voice within
I cut you down
I keep you free from sin
Six feet under ground

I tear you from the womb
I watch you fail
I guide you to the tomb
But still I will prevail

I am the answer
I am the one
Growing like cancer
Second to none

Bringer of sorrow
Torture and pain
I'm the one who guides you
Out of the rain

I breathe - you die
Second coming of the Lord, they say
I paint the world with blood
In a mere expression of the pain I've got

Death tolls - at night
Creep the city 'till the morning light
I find your doors unlocked
And I kill your offspring as the cradle rock

Taste me!

I am the voice within
I cut you down
I keep you free from sin
Six feet under ground


7. 1943

Out in the fields we are falling
Frozen to death in the cold
Undeniable - we were bought and sold

Asking each other for nothing
Paying a horrible price
Disillusional - is our sacrifice

Winter - the coming of dark ages
The north wind screams and rages
The fire - the fortune - the victory is (gone)

Watching the hell fires blazing
Clutching the frost bidden ground
Inevitable - hear their wailing sound

Bones are all trembling and shaking
Visceral shock waves explode
We're not capable to bear this heavy load

Winter - the coming of dark ages
The north wind screams and rages
The fire - the fortune - the victory is (gone)

We walk this long, dark road
Until the end of time
The future once forebode
Turned out a deathly crime

But time and time again
The hardliners prevail
Throughout all history
The sensible must fail

Winter - the coming of dark ages
The north wind screams and rages
The fire - the fortune - the victory is (gone)

Hunger - a dying feast on nothing
Where one by one we're passing
All glory - all hope is lost and gone

In the cold Russian winter of 1943 it became obvious
That Germany had lost the war, once again


8. WELL OF POISON

I hear the voices of those in the dark
The miserable creatures of night
They're screaming from hunger, they're longing to see
The power and glory of light

For aeons they've waited for this time to come
To open the gates to free will
And it's written that once in a two thousand years
A child will be born to fulfil (the prophecy)

Drink from the well of poison
See the empty throne
At the well of poison

Taste from the well of poison
Now you're all alone
At the well of poison

There's no hope to stop them if once they're released
No force can't reject them at last
The armies of chaos, the hordes of the beast
The end of our days' coming fast

I deny
I defy

Drink from the well of poison
See this empty throne
At the well of poison

Taste from the well of poison
Now you're all alone
At the well of poison

Taste from the well of poison

Know that you're always a -
Feel that you're always a -
See that you're always alone


9. TASTE MY REVENGE

You've gone too far - now you must pay
With all your blood - it's Judgement Day
See me like a demon from the deep
I will always haunt you in your sleep

Taste my revenge
When the stars are shining
And the moon is full
Revenge!

Hear my voice - the beast within
Every word I say a touch of sin
Burning like a fever in your dreams
Every night awakened by your screams

Taste my revenge

My vengeance 'till you wish for death
(Taste my revenge)
Pray this was your final breath

Now spend your days in fear
And blind your eyes
You've let the demon in
Let me hear your mournful cries

Now you know - what it is like
Got nowhere to go - no place to hide
Feel me as I break into your life
I will never let you out alive


10. SHIP OF FOULS

And from the eastern world
A clairvoyant appears
He speaks of Heaven
And he plays with people's fear

He makes a fortune
As he quotes the book of rules
He is the captain on a
Giant ship of fools

So if you meet him
You'd better be aware
He is a gambler
He walks across the air

He's skilled with magic
And he loves to roll the bones
He takes you higher 'till you
Hit the cobble stones

Out of the silence
You can hear the thunder roll
First strikes of lightning
And the world's out of control

He is the healer
And he loves to take a twist
He is the ruler
Of the shadows and the mist

There is no watcher in the sky
No one to listen when we pray
There is no watcher in the sky
We'll have to find another way

Burn down the heavens
Bring down the throne
A new age is rising
We are alone

There is no watcher in the sky
No one to listen when we pray
There is no watcher in the sky
We'll have to find another way


11. FIELDS OF JOY

In the distance there's a song
Swords will meet, you know
It won't take long

I can feel it in my bones
It's in the voice
Of the stones

Higher and higher
We'll burn the stakes of fire
We will
Rise from the shade of dreams

Deeper and deeper
The shadow of the Reaper
He will
Follow the crimson streams

Into battlefields we ride
Crush our enemies
With one big strike
And it's getting to the core
Stronger than before:
"Now you're a soldier, little boy
these are fields of joy!"

And the season has begun
Time has come to kill
For everyone

Like a slaughter of the soul
No more the bones
Have to roll

Into battlefields we ride
Crush our enemies
With one big strike
And it's getting to the core
Stronger than before:
Now you're a soldier, little boy
These are fields of joy!


12. LA TRISTESSE

I am - the one
Who makes you bleed
I am - the sun
The force you need

I come to take over
I gain control
Your only lover
Now pay your toll

Wipe away the teardrops
From these chaos ridden eyes
Your sacrifice is taken
We don't no need no alibis

Your suffering is over
And the story is complete
Pass away in dignity
This world is full of greed

The world is dark
It's in my mind
The world is dark
It's so unkind

I hear - you breathe
My heart is wide
You're begging, please
Now time is right

Your heart beats so slowly
Your spirits fade
Last wishes unholy
It is too late

Wipe away the teardrops
From these chaos ridden eyes
Your sacrifice is taken
We don't no need no alibis

Rescue me eternally
Save me from decay
Last of hope that I can see
To take the pain away

Rescue me, oh, rescue me
All the blood so red
There is nothing left for me
I wish that I was dead

Rescue me, rescue me
Turn my heart to stone
I am passing gratefully
At last I'm not alone
