Mirrors of iniquity Lethal munificence
Vile hypocrisy Scars of insanity
Mirrors of iniquity Lethal munificence
Vile hypocrisy Scars of insanity
Forge your own path Do what
Thou wilt As blood is spilt

Whine to the Divine Constant complaining
Never explaining Mysteries of life
Belief... Be all lies!
Even as ideas change
Everything still remains the same
Belief... Be all lies!
Even as ideas change
Everything still remains the same
Labelled and numbered A lust for life;
Desire to sate You are what you create!

2. FIRE FEAR FLAMES

Fire
A burning ambition, the final decision
A vicious vision, a lethal transition
The soul journeys forth distant
And confused Another mind, brain-damaged; born to lose
The voracity for veracity,
Strengthened by tenacity
Consumed by heated passion, overwhelmed by
Fear
Another nightmare becomes reality Blind belief - the downfall of reason Mitigated by treason, treachery,
And deceit
Forgiveness and failure Malice and majesty
Infinite tragedy, sublime reality Until the smoke clears
Fire
Fear
Flames!

Stare into the mirror Abandoned, forlorn,
Lost Engulfed in,engulfed in Flames

Feel the fire Animated desire Alacrity
And persuasion Brutal honesty
A dubious conversation Personal reflection
Trapped under vice Warned
And warmed by the healing touch of
Fire, Fear, Flames....
O' Armageddon, prepare for the eschaton non-chalant,
Cold, distant, relevant a fading memory of the future past Vibrating, pulsing, piercing, scorched, by
Fire, Fear, Flames
Never, and always the same The mind travels through myth History reveals Infinite regress Deception Ignored
Shadows of intimacy Power, pressure,
Desperation Sincerely seared by
Fire Fear Flames!
O' Armageddon, prepare for the eschaton non-chalant, cold, distant, relevant a fading memory of the future past Vibrating, pulsing, piercing, scorched, by
Fire, Fear, Flames


3. IN THE NIGHT

In a shady place in the fearfull night
Come in close can you feel the light
Your smile fades from your pretty lips
As it all fades out of sight,out of sight.

When you thought of the love you lost
Didn´t you feel you were all star crossed
A cold white hand leads you away
Now you know what addiction costs,Count the cost.

Can´t you hear it calling baby
The smile with iron teeth
Can´t you feel it crawling baby
As you stare in disbelief….

In a shady place in the fearfull night
Come in close can you feel the light
Your smile fades from your pretty lips
As it all fades out of sight,out of sight.

When you thought of the love you lost
Didn´t you feel you were all star crossed
A cold white hand leads you away
Now you know what addiction costs,Count the cost.

Can´t you hear it calling baby
The smile with iron teeth
Can´t you feel it crawling baby
These teeth are pearly white
Pearly white,Shining bright!!

Can´t you hear it calling baby
The smile with iron teeth
Can´t you hear it calling baby
The smile with iron teeth
Can´t you feel it crawling baby
These teeth are pearly white
Pearly white,Shining bright!!

One more line drags you out of the light
What will it cost you tonight?


4. NOT HUMAN

Reflected from the glass
My soul begins to fade
A waiting demon inside
Lying in a shallow grave
Lighter than the shadows
Darker than the sun
A growing emptiness
Has only just begun.

Crawings lie deep
Inside empty veins
A madness in mind
Far greater than insane
A past unforgotten
Lies six foot deep
I can not breathe
I can not sleep

I´m not human,i´m not alive
How can i still live a life
I´m not human,i´m not alive
Somehow,someway-i still live this life.
I am me
But someone else
To dead to be saved
To far gone for help
I am of the night
The moon and the stars
I am a vampire
Trapped behind life´s bars

I still live this life

Reflected from the glass
My soul begins to fade
A waiting demon inside
Lying in a shallow grave
Lighter than the shadows
Darker than the sun
A growing emptiness
Has only just begun.

I´m not human,i´m not alive
How can i still live a life
I´m not human,i´m not alive
How can i still live a life
I´m not human,i´m not alive
Somehow,someway-i still live this life.


5. MIRROR MIRROR

Mirror,mirror,
Lie to me
And show me what I want to see
A world untouched
Un-harmed by love
A world not cursed
That soars above

Mirror,mirror,
Lie to me
And show me what
I wish to see
A moonlit night
Not pouring rain
Tears cried of joy
Not cried for pain.

Mirror mirror lie to me
And show me what i know can´t be
A world where death is not a choice
A place where i can´t hear his voice
A world where cuts don´t bleed or scar
Where i can watch life from afar
A world where i can hide away
To die again another day.
Mirror,mirror
Lie to me
And show me what
I hope to see
A world where pain
Cannot occur
Where tears don´t make
My vision blur.

Mirror,mirror
Lie to me
And show me what
I pray to see
A place where i
Won´t need to feel
Where time and life
Are not so real.

Mirror mirror lie to me
And show me what i know can´t be
A world where death is not a choice
A place where i can´t hear his voice
A world where cuts don´t bleed or scar
Where i can watch life from afar
A world where i can hide away
To die again another day.

Mirror,mirror
Lie to me
And show me what
I need to see
Reflect a world
Unlike my own
Where what is real
Is never known.

Mirror mirror lie to me
And show me what i know can´t be
A world where death is not a choice
A place where i can´t hear his voice
A world where cuts don´t bleed or scar
Where i can watch life from afar
A world where i can hide away
To die again another day.


6. END OF REIGN

Why do I have fear?
My weaknesses exposed
I am a warrior
Without a sword
My defences have fallen
At your arms
No victory in my hands
This war is lost

[Chorus]
The end of reign
This throne has been destroyed
The spears of the enemy pierce my soul
I am a warrior overcome
The end of reign
This is my fall

Why do I stand still
When I should stand my ground?
I'm a protector
Without a shield
My boundaries are broken
I'm at your knees
Don't spare me this life
How can I live?

[Chorus]

Defences have fallen
At your arms
No victory in my hands
This war is lost

[Chorus]

The end of reign


7. THE PROVENANCE OF A DEAD MAN

No evocation of beauty
There’s no need for poetry
The reaper had cursed the crib
Where a child once lay to sleep
Been condemned since creation
No emancipation
From tethers and chains

Sorrow spreads from head to toe
Wreaking havoc on this throne
Flooding the empty shell of his
With permanent self-demise
No longer a living being
He’s somewhere in-between
Decay and destruction

[Chorus]
This is the provenance of a dead man
His fate be damned
His book was dipped in blood
Before he took his first breath

Tormented in this purgatory
An endless chasm of pain
His silent screams remain unheard
Echoing his nightmare song
When heaven and hell collide
Infliction by the scythe
Of his oppressor

Befriend an army of grim souls
His now a soldier of death
A deity of dark and light
Who reaps the living when dead

(Been condemned since creation,
No emancipation)
(No longer a living being
He’s somewhere in-between )

Open the gate of perdition
That accepts him into gloom
A perished desire to live
When the coffin is his home
With life he longed for freedom
Waiting for an Eden
Never to be seen

[Chorus] (x2)


8. ANCIENT RIDER

Stoke the fires of Oblivion; Iron Horses in flight
Like scrambling fighters, twisting roads;
Lead us into the night
There are no hours, no minutes here;
Just wind shear and the roar
A hundred mighty guns at once; will shake you to the core
We tower over blacktop roads; this narrow world we stride
The throttles twist in armored fists; filled with our Ancient Pride

[Chorus]
At last the battle rages, the Oskorei drawing near
The blast of horns are sounding, The Ancient Rider is here
The God of Death is with us, The Wild Hunt knows his call
For on the battlefield the Ancient Rider owns ye all!

Like warlords in a hungry band; wolves race on the attack
A hundred golden pentagrams; blaze bright upon our back
We fly across the waterways; on groaning hulks of steel
The twisted arms of viaducts; stretch across as they kneel
The Goddess inside keeps us warm;
The gale will fail to chill
As in our mind she blazes on, we cross the frozen hills

[Chorus]

Down Into the valley we go; the grove of darkened ground
The rumble sounds in the valley; echoes dance all around
We stop and we cast the circle; a fire burning bright
The ghosts will all rise before us; stand guard against the night Sleep at last from our libations; we’ll greet the day again
A hundred golden pentagrams will rise and face the wind

[Chorus]


9. DECEPTION IGNORED

Invite the light
Into your life
Go and live....stay and die!
All deception ignored
Events in concealment
Never lose your humour, Man
While watching the world


[Chorus]
Riders of Doom wield their raging steel
Systems of death...the traitor's fate is real
Pledge to die, feel the mortal dread
Suicidal lunacy as the brave man falls dead
(x2)

Suffer serious brain damage
From the thing within
Beyond the light...on the shores of sin
Scattered by the winds of death
Defend the Metal Law with your last breath
Your death wish is to die in Hell!

[Chorus]

Behind the harlequin's mask, discover all hidden truth
Reveal the personal vendetta sworn in your youth
Secrets of steel, spill the dragon's blood
With the violent omen
...Time waits for no man


Towers in darkness
the rough road of life
Drugs and corruption lead
To power, pain, and strife
This is your journey to deathrow
Signed, sealed, and delivered
All deception ignored

[Chorus]


10. BLACK AS COAL

The darkness is creeping closer now
Do you think we will survive?
The fear in our souls as we have to bow
We´ll never come out alive.

As the darkness grew within our minds
it was like God closed the door.
Stalk the earth with no light to find,
It is darker than before.

Black is my life
Black is my hate
Black is the color of my fate.
Black is my mind
Black as coal
Black is the color of my soul.

We thought we marched against the light
Never believed it could get this dark
Now when there´s no dawn in sight
I can feel the claws ripping out my heart.

And just behold the black and bitter hate
It will eat you alive and spit you out.
Just wait and see it´s all too late
Never realize what it was all about.

The darkness is creeping closer now
Do you think we will survive?
The fear in our souls as we have to bow
We´ll never come out alive.

Black is my life
Black is my hate
Black is the color of my fate.
Black is my mind
Black as coal
Black is the color of my soul.
Black is my life
Black is my hate
Black is the color of my fate.
Black is my mind
Black as coal
Black is the color of my soul.


11. EYES ON THE BETRAYER

The one who crawls to the Czar
The one whose mouth went too far
I hope it bothers you, I know who you are.
the wise words meant for my ear?
What led you running in fear?
To point that sharp instrument behind my back

Kiss your crippled God and his dying light
When you showed your true colors, I saw black and white
You can deceive yourself but no one else
When you sleep with the Devil, You won’t wake up with Christ

I hope that you get a bullet; I hope that you get a knife
I hope that you get a life
But I won’t be there or care if you do.
Because your roof of steel is built on walls of glass
And you can bet your ass, it can happen to you.

You must be full of surprise
To see that I didn’t die
Took it all to the top but wet birds can’t fly
I may have eaten some dirt
I may have suffered some burns
My cheek doesn’t turn and this worm dieth not.

The one who crawls to the Czar
The one whose mouth went too far
I hope it bothers you, I know who you are.
The wise words meant for my ear?
What led you running in fear?
To point that sharp instrument behind my back

Kiss your crippled God and his dying light
When you showed your true colors, I saw black and white
You can deceive yourself but no one else
When you sleep with the Devil, You won’t wake up with Christ

I hope that you get a bullet;
I hope that you get a knife
I hope that you get a life
But I won’t be there or care if you do.
Because your roof of steel is built on walls of glass
And you can bet your ass, it can happen to you.
I hope that you get a bullet; I hope that you get a knife
I hope that you get a life
But I won’t be there or care if you do.
Because your roof of steel is built on walls of glass
And you can bet your ass, it can happen to you.


12. VORACITY FOR VERACITY

In the dim light of the windy city
Eerie and forlorn she stands alone
Feeling endless pain and sorrow
Broken down to the bone

Eternal maternal presence denied
When she was so very young
Did this made her stronger,
When put to the test
Always thinking of others first,
She strives and endeavours to do her best

Speaking truth with sincerity
Forthright conviction, brutal honesty
Serving others with alacrity
Seek and you will find your own...

Voracity for Veracity

Just a boy beyond any expectation
Keen, aware, asking so many damn questions
Innocence and filled with awareness
Kindness and ever so precious, relentless !

Call him son, call him Demon
Is he more than meets the eye
Is it really ours to question why

Speaking truth with sincerity
Forthright conviction, brutal honesty
Serving others with alacrity
Seek and you will find your own...

Voracity for Veracity

Serendipitous: A noble man out of time
A smile his personal gospel
Thinking good things, sublime
Free of any judgement
He walks in the incandescent light
Heartfelt Passion immediate action

Yours is his grace

Constant Guilt inculcated on the mettle mind
Play the blame game, feeling only shame

Hers is your life embraced

Ecstasy and empathy
Time to enjoy the free ride

Free from the past, facing forward
Living in the now, for tomorrow
We are heading onward
With trusted companion by your side

Freed from vendetta
Feeling no need for revenge
Signs of maturity
Some much life to salvage
Voice of sobriety

Speaking truth with sincerity
Forthright conviction, brutal honesty
Serving others with kindness and alacrity
Seek and now you will find your very own

Voracity for Veracity

Live and let live
Now it is time to forgive
Appreciate what you already have

Here today gone tomorrow
No more life of sorrow,
Forget fears of regret


13. GOD OF SHIT

Why have you gone and forsaken me oh mighty god of shit?
Why have you left and forgotten me
When i´ve fallen in defeat?
Why do you leave my prayers unheard
When i´m in a time of need?
Your words i will no longer trust,
They pierce my soul and make me bleed.
Disquiet feelings stir up my mind oh mighty god of shit
They make me numb they make me blind
To a world that my life doesn´t fit.
You leave me chained in a dismal world
And you call yourself a savior?
You show me hate so I can never love,
Forever i´ll be your prisoner.

Oh mighty god of shit-Keep those blessings that deceive
Oh mighty god of shit-I confess that I no longer believe.

Why have you gone and forsaken me oh mighty god of shit?
Why have you left and forgotten me
When i´ve fallen in defeat?

Disquiet feelings stir up my mind oh mighty god of shit
They make me numb they make me blind
To a world my life doesn´t fit.

Oh mighty god of shit-Keep those blessings that deceive
Oh mighty god of shit-I confess that I no longer believe.
