1. MEMENTO MORI

A look...
A touch...
A smile...
Was enough to make him realize

Dressed in black
With a scythe
Reaping the stars
Draining the light
His touch devours the man inside
It's too late
Welcome to the blight

Memento mori
Memento mori
Memento mori
MEMENTO MORI!

Looking down
From my cliff.
I can see the
Garden of Eden
Looking down
Only to see
Annihilition
Obliteration
I'm pushed
Over the edge
Into demise

Falling down
He would never see the light again
Falling down
Nothing there but blight for him
His ignorant heart
Never looked back to face the truth
It's torn apart And drowned in the fountain of youth

Memento mori
Memento mori
Memento mori
MEMENTO MORI!

Falling down
From my cliff.
No longer see the
Garden of Eden

Memento Mori!


2. OMG

We're not born for heaven
We're not born for hell
We're not born to die
Oh we're just born to live a goddamn lie!

I don't wanna live!
I don't wanna die!
I just wanna watch!
Time passing by. So perhaps

We don't serve a purpose
Maybe it's just a practical joke
So why don't we laugh along then?
Laugh our hearts out till we choke!

Do you wanna live?
Do you wanna die?
Do you wanna watch
Time passing by

Faith is depair
Your throne is just a fucking chair
God is nowhere
Life's not unfair

Follow the path
Least traveled by
Fate's in your hand
You can't deny

What if god was one of us?
Or what if we were just like him?
Just a stranger on the bus
Just like us, full of sin!

I don't wanna live!
I don't wanna die!
I just wanna watch!
time passing by. so perhaps

We don't serve a purpose
Maybe it's just a practical joke
So why don't we laugh along then?
Laugh our hearts out till we choke!


3. NIHILISM

Do not create
Unholy faith
marching the earth
Nihilism's...

Birth
Birth!
Romance is death
Religion spreads
Meaning of life
Nullified!

You can't just run away

Save this world
From damnation
Bring this world
To damnation

Roaring on in overdrive. Overdrive!
Losing precious time of life. Time will fly!
Like a trigger, slowly pulled. Overdrive!
By time's gun, have we been fooled? Time will fly!

Stay! down!
Play dead!
Slaves of
God fearing hypocrites!
God fearing hypocrites!

Stay! down!
Play dead!
Slaves of
All fearing nihilists!
All fearing nihilists!

I feel the light
It betrays me
Burning my eyes
I feel the light

Morality
Nonexistent
Hypocrisy
Will always be

I feel the light
It betrays me
Burning my eyes
I feel the light

Morality
Nonexistent
Hypocrisy
Will always be

Do not create
Unholy faith
marching the earth
Nihilism's...

Birth
Birth!
Romance is death
Religion spreads
Meaning of life
Nullified!

You can't just run away

Save this world
From damnation
Bring this world
To damnation

Roaring on in overdrive. Overdrive!
Losing precious time of life. Time will fly!
Like a trigger, slowly pulled. Overdrive!
By time's gun, have we been fooled? Time will fly!


4. TEAR YOUR TEARS

Wandering through the darkness
Disguised as one of them.
Trudging through the mud like them and
Stabbing my own back.
Try'ng to raise my fist at them but
Never see'ng it back.
Looking all around me seeing
A million copies of me.
Wond'ring why we don't seek bliss
Instead of communal blight.

Why?
Why?
Why?
Don't we Tear our tears?

And now I'm ripping off my human skin
Regaining my own mind.

Why?
Why?
Why?
Don't you Tear your tears?

Why don't we tear our..

Tears and return
To our own minds
Be freed from this
Selftorture? WHY?

Ilook back and look forth,
Look into time.
And soon you will all realize.
You won't tear your tears
And you'll die.
Are you afraid of that time?

You said:
"With you I want to rot away
The rest of my life".

I look back and look forth,
Look into time.
And soon you will all realize.
You won't tear your tears
And you'll die!

I ran away 'cause I
Refuse to believe.
There's nothing more to live for
But my own degration.

Why?


5. DYSTOPIA

Auw?
This is my dystopia
Burning legions
Fighting fire
This is my dystopia
My dystopia

Never seen the lies
Through the mist and decay
Hiding in a cage
Swallowing the key to die
You will never find
The cagey and the sacrificed
I am this old man
Hiding in dystopia

Burning fire, scorching heat
Your victory, is my defeat (x3)

Auw?
This is my dystopia
Burning legions
Fighting fire
This is my dystopia
My dystopia

Burning all the legions
Sacrificed Allegiance
Bound to an old prophecy
fruit of the poison tree

Seeing the faces of death
Stealing the treasures I have
You're building a wall 'round me
Securing my future, my insanity

Auw?
This is my dystopia
Burning legions
Fighting fire
This is my dystopia
My dystopia

Never seen the lies
Through the mist and decay
Hiding in a cage
Swallowing the key to die
You will never find
The cagey and the sacrificed
I am this old man
Hiding in dystopia

Icy water, biting frost
You will win and all is lost (x3)

Auw? This is my dystopia
Burning legions
Fighting fire
This is my dystopia
My dystopia

Burning all the legions
Sacrificed Allegiance
Bound to an old prophecy
Fruit of the poison tree

I'm running around
I'm shouting
Spilling words of anger
Of agony

I scream and I shout!
I want to get out!
I scream and I shout!
I want to get...

Out!
This is my dystopia
Burning legions
Fighting fire
This is my dystopia
My dystopia

Living in dystopia
Aching in dystopia
Dying in dystopia
Rotting in dystopia


6. HEAT

Drown in blood
Eating our own flesh
Bones are crushed
Face thrown in the sand
Bleeding dry
Corpses on a stash. in
Blood we're flushed
Chewing on our hand

Eating
Bleeding
Screaming
Dreaming

In the heat of the desert
In the heat of war
We will bleed and we'll treasure
The cause we're fighting for
x2

Once, and for all
We will kill
Now, we stand tall
And defend
Now, and let all
Who can wield
A sword, go to arms!

I will lead,
Charge and draw
The first blood
And I'll drink
I'll bring a
Toast to thee
You will bleed
Enemy

Like, a grain, of sand
Drow-ning in, the bur-ning desert
Like, a grain, of sand
Drow-ning in, the bur-ning desert
land!

Prepared my steed
Warhorses armored
Make them crawl!
Bring down the tyrant!
In blood they drown
Eating their own flesh
Hang them all! de-
serving no less

Eating
Bleeding
Screaming
Dreaming

In the heat of the desert
In the heat of war
We will bleed and we'll treasure
The cause we're fighting for
x2


7. VERSE REVERSE

Can you hear the voices whisper?
Can you hear them cry?
Nothing on this earth will grow
Your beloved pain will die

Vicious wolves will tear apart
What only eyes can see
Teardrops dripping on the ground
Is What will always be

Your cry only pleases wolves
It will make them howl and laugh
Bleeding eyes, oh bleeding eyes,
They will cut your soul in half

From every river
From every cloud
The earth will cry
The wind will shout
Do not escape
You don't want out
Do not evade
The teardrops dripping on the ground

Your cry only pleases wolves
It will make them howl and laugh
Bleeding eyes, oh bleeding eyes,
They will cut your soul in half

In every mind
In every soul
You'll find it all
The blood you stole

Do not escape
you don't want out
Do not evade
The teardrops dripping on the ground

Still hearing the voices whisper?
Still hearing them cry?
The blood you stole
Your wicked soul
In agony, you'll die...


8. BRUTALITY

From ashes will come
Arise your new king
The phoenix will bleed
Obey the living

From ashes I came
I am your new king
Darkest bloodline
Obey the dying

Brutality!
Brutality!

I'll kill your wife
I'll slaughter your daughter
I'll kill your girl


I'll slaughter your laughter

All houses will burn
All faithful will burn
All corpses will burn
And now it's your turn

And now it's your turn!
And now it's your turn!

I'm chained to my throne
All slaves bow down
A land of my own
Heretics will drown

Wasted life
Wasted death
Wasted laughter
Wasted breath

Wasted!
Wasted!

From ashes will come
Arise your new king
The phoenix will bleed
Obey the living

From ashes I came
I am your new king
Darkest bloodline
Obey the dying

Brutality!
I am your new king!


9. POWER

Thunder screeching downwards
You see the soil burning
Power to ruin the earth
Another body flying
Thunder flows in my veins
And now I'm spilling all my
Power to scorch this plain

Burning footsteps in the snow
But I erase all my tracks
Frozen flame, forgotten soul
Left alone in the cold
Defrosting, I'll ride again
I'll Ride the lightning!
In chaos all will be killed
For I will wield the...

Power to take the field
Awakened by damnation
Thunder; my sword, my shield
Warding off crusaders
Power to make you bleed
I ignore your cries and
Thunder will cure your greed

Praying to your gods in fear
But they will never answer
Sacrificing all of worth
But to me it's worthless
Crawling on the ground for me
But I won't spare you
This is all you mean to me

I am your downfall
You stand no chance
Against my...

Power!
Power!
Power!
Power!


10. GLITCHES

Fall!
Rise!
Fall!
Rise!

Oh you can climb,
And you can rise,
But at the top
Waits your demise!

Scum of the earth
To wealth-drained soil
To the disturbed,
Diamonds and oil!

Scream and run
Onto the
Top, there's none.
And they are
All around
The glitches
Ev'ryWhere

Fall!
Rise!
Fall!
Rise!

For good intentions
The hound is anxious
The road is paved
You'll be enslaved

In threefold hating
The heads are waiting
You couldn't stop
And missed the top

Scream and run
Onto the
Top, there's none.
And they are
All around
The glitches
Ev'ryWhere

Seen the end,
And I don`t want to begin,
Not anymore
Now here I stand,
Feeling the suffering within,
I feel forlorn.

Thundering down
Bouldering down
See it all now

Buying a Flower
Corrupting power
Ivory tower

Taking a step
Missing a gap
Taking one back

This will be our
Balance of power
Ivory tower

Climbing a hill
Lacking the skill
Feeling a chill

Paradise flower
Meteor shower
Ivory tower

Capitol hill
Lacking the skill
Seeking a thrill

Paradise flower
Meteor shower
Ivory tower

I see, what you don't wanna see
I feel, what you don't wanna feel
I see, what you don't wanna see
I feel, what you don't wanna feel

Fall!
Rise!
Fall!
Rise!


11. DREAMING OF SIN

Dreaming of clouds, heavenly white
Curling, moving, no upcoming night

Order, chaos, clouds above
Twisting, painful, tormented love

Dreaming of the forest
Dreaming of the night
Dreaming of clouds above
Dreaming of light

Dreaming forecast
Dreaming the past
Dreaming to win
Dreaming, dreaming of sin

Dreaming of miracles, spectrum of colors
Gazing, amazing, hoping for more

The savage, culture, only to hide
Straight on, enjoying, the end despite

The savage, culture, only to hide
straight on, enjoying, the end despite

Despite...

Dreaming of clouds, again and again
Curling, moving, repeating men

Order, chaos, battle forever
Twisting, painful, sinful together

Dreaming of the forest
Dreaming of the night
Dreaming of clouds above
Dreaming of light

Dreaming forecast
Dreaming the past
Dreaming to win
Dreaming, dreaming of sin
