1. DARKNESS DRIVING DARKNESS

Hate is a product of living
See you're one and the same
Dredged through the halls of truth
Under the crescent today - the cross tomorrow
Be without fear in the face of your enemies
May the weak cower - all they perceive will be your laws

Armies crushed by fear - cripple the wounded mass
The will to dominate in an instant

Deceive as you bathe in the blood of the innocent
Seek thy enemy of faith, the version you find will be your God
Crucify your religion to the cross of shame for all to witness
Deceive as you bathe in the blood of the innocent
Seek thy enemy of faith, the version you find will be your God

Darkness Driving Darkness


2. DAYS OF VENGEANCE

Desire
To hear you plead
Conspire
Set their hearts ablaze
To keep them close
A liar's game

Rake your eyes to erase what's seen
Devils' play resists protest
To believe you let them guide
Days of vengeance are at hand

Raised in splendor, servitude and disgust
To raise the scythe against your flock could only mean damnation
Count your days upon the earth
The willing need of mortal men
Has erupted on the dueling innovators
Of human torture
The dead will pleasure their souls
And feast remains of your withered... corpse

What you see is sham
Creation
With reason
That which they call obscene
Vengeance

Bred in murder
Apathy hides contempt
Breathe in the pain
A thousand ways to count the sorrow
Led the frail astray
Secure in your self-created paradise
Vengeance still follows

Hollowed-out white tombs
All lined up for their guests
Step into your den
You're a coward
Welcome to your doom

What you see is sham
Creation
With reason
That which they call obscene

Rake your eyes to erase what's seen
Devils' play resists protest
To believe you let them guide
Days of vengeance are at hand


3. END OF ALL TIDES

Whosoever passes judgment shall prey to extinction
Stinking drunk with greed, the soothsayers offer no reprieve

No profit here
Rush to demise
Penetrating
Deepest depths
Lamentation
Has no meaning
Realization
Will be crushing

Existence of pain, of life, of love
Of hunger for knowledge, of pain and pleasure

All things imagined
All that you knew was real
Nullified

All you've loved is wasted emotion
Frustration sets in as memories cave in
Eclipsed, the moonlight is blinding
See it rise, end of all tides
