1. LEVAY-ATHAN

Freeze in the stare of the cold full moon
And burn in the glare of the judging sun
Spill the blood down the serpent's stairs
You'll never be free until you break away

No streets of gold with the Lavey-athan
No pearly gates with the Lavey-athan

Slit the throat of the offering lamb
And hang the thralls from the holy branch
Congregate in the circle of stone
But you're just a piece of shit seen from the holy throne

No streets of gold with the Lavey-athan
No pearly gates with the Lavey-athan

Bow to your genetic needs
Revel in the comfort of a prophecy
Surrender reason for dependency
Nurse at the bosom of divinity

Shrouded in the clouds or in the heavens above
Dwelling in the deep or on a mountain top
Ambiguous writings lead the thousands by the hand
Get your sense of purpose from the clergy man

No streets of gold with the Lavey-athan
No pearly gates with the Lavey-athan

No streets of gold with the Lavey-athan
No pearly gates with the Lavey-athan

Lavey-athan
Lavey-athan


2. ZOROAST

There's a breeze in the midnight air
Eyes are weary but still I stare
Atop a tower I hold my watch
For planets in line and suns that burst

Bring forth the undoing of this world
Ba'al Lord claim thy prize

The sky is never what it seems
Stars align the end of time
The Beasts' they live inside your dreams
There's a full moon rising
The sky is never what it seems
Stars align the end of time
The Beasts' they live inside your dreams
There's a full moon rising

Studies burn the midnight oil
Over charts and algebra I pour
My work parades the signs from God
Come save thy servant oh Ba'al

Come forth the signs beyond our Earth
Blessed Ba'al and Marduk for thee I search

The sky is never what it seems
Stars align the end of time
The Beasts' they live inside your dreams
There's a full moon rising
The sky is never what it seems
Stars align the end of time
The Beasts' they live inside your dreams
There's a full moon rising

The Beasts' they live inside your dreams
The Beasts' they live inside your dreams
There's a full moon rising


3. NETHERWORLD EMPEROR

From my blackened chariot I travel my domain
Slaves and subjugates they tremble at my name
I've lived one thousand lives and will live one thousand more
I rule this Netherworld I am the Emperor

Black and damp my land resides
On cloven hoof across we stride
An Iron Fist to rule this world
The might is mine to rule and to reign

To rule and to reign

Thunder shakes the mountains high and lightning fills the sky
Eclipse the work of God and surpass his feeble try
Victorious on we march for none shall us defy
Save your breath of misery save your pitiful cries

Cower in your House of God
Your faith is now all too vain
Sweep aside the weep of pray
I enter now to rule and to reign

To rule and to reign

Creation - Damnation

Crack the whip of intolerance
Eternal life of abolishment

Ambassador of deceit
To orchestrate your defeat
Revel in hypocrisy


4. NOSFERATU

From a sleep to a slumber now wide awake
Hear it whisper at your door
Now back from the brink of extinction
Eradicated no more

In the hall of the kings once mighty
Impotence and ignorance a tendency for negligence

Pitchforks brandished in an age of distrust
Let the sands drink the blood
Fear of the plague makes hostility just
Dance around the golden calf

Resurrect the undead for the battle
A million move as one it has just begun

See Evil Walk
See Evil Talk
See Evil Rule
Nosferatu

Behold the sun set instead of rising
Addiction spreads for the easy way out
Fires lit sets the stage for the rally
Hand the noose around your throat

One step from here to the unknown
Indifference and assumption a recipe for corruption

See Evil Walk
See Evil Talk
See Evil Rule
Nosferatu

See Evil Walk
See Evil Talk
See Evil Rule
Nosferatu

Failing in relevancy
Embrace your soon corpse to be
You'll be an accessory
Accomplice to a mass degree
Oblivion welcome me

See Evil Walk
See Evil Talk
See Evil Rule
Nosferatu


5. THE BURNING OF SALEM

Villagers gathered 'round the witches trail
Holds the signs of mass hysteria

Women scorned and kinds accused
Reason is left when the mob's to rule
A trial is held a travesty
A show of power from the ministry

Neighbor rat on neighbor as the act of a devout
Eager to seem more pious so they sell each other out

Accusations to vilify
Perjury to save your life
Random acts of heresy
Heinous accounts of devilry

So Burn - So Burn - So Burn

By the powers vested in me
God's will be done zealously

Verbal abuse roars from the stands
Once on trial there's no legal chance
Faith is held at the maximum
Praise the Lord his will be done

So-called victims made to testify
Bearing witness of the Devil's might

So Burn - So Burn - So Burn

By the powers vested in me
God's will be done tirelessly

In the year of our Lord June 2nd 1692
I, William Stoughton chief magistrate of this Grand Jury
find you all guilty as charged of acts of witchcraft and heresy
I sentence you all to be hanged by the neck until you are dead.
May God have mercy on your souls

So Burn - So Burn - So Burn

By the powers vested in me
God's will be done endlessly


6. GILDED FANG

Starting with a whisper deep in the night
Jumping from the rooftops they swarm in evil might
Clawing at your window clawing at your door
Lusting for your blood and they only want more

Obey and raise the gilded fang
Together we will bleed the land

Bitten by a bearer smitten by their thirst
Driven by a hunger that'll make your jugular burst
Trapped in a corner you know you cannot flee
Bid farewell to your sanity

Obey and raise the gilded fang
Together we will bleed the land

Feel the fever burn - burn in your veins
Feel the hunger yearn - slowly go insane
Feel the fever burn
Feel the fever burn

Running with the pack now your former life has past
You are now immortal learn the Hunter's craft
Can you hear them singing the creatures of the night
Praise the gilded fang bask in its might

Obey and raise the gilded fang
Together we will bleed the land
Obey and raise the gilded fang
Together we will bleed the land


7. EMPTY TOMBS

Gabriel his trumpets blows
The end of days the darkness glows
The rise of seas and mountain falls
The dead shall rise judgement to all

There's a hole in the sky
There's a quake of the Earth
Nowhere to hide
Nowhere to run

All tombs are empty
All tombs are empty
On that final day
All tombs are empty

Angels usher forth the heard
Your deeds are about to be heard
Tremble in fear of the scale
Tipping the scales descend into Hell

The restless dead now leave their beds

All tombs are empty
All tombs are empty
On that final day
All tombs are empty

Insurmountable light of God
Pass thy judgement onto all
The meek will inherit the lands
The rest the fires will fan

All tombs are empty
All tombs are empty
On that final day
All tombs are empty

Empty - Empty Tombs
Empty - Empty Tombs


8. IN WARM BLOOD

Bend forward and uncover your arms
This will only take a second
Little girl there's no need for alarm
Approach the tub when you're beckoned

Gather round the young ones now
They will make you stronger
Hold the key to immortal life
Wither away no longer

Wash the countess in warm blood
Elizabeth Bathory

Oh but hey wipe those tears away
You want to follow your friends don't you
They're back below playing outside the keep
Now hurry up to join them

Maybe you'd want to look away
But see it was almost painless
You feel sleepy yes so please have nap
Join your friends slumbering dreamless

Wash the countess in warm blood
Elizabeth Bathory

Enter Countess and drop your robe
Slip into the pool of life
Hold the chalice above your head
Baptize yourself a beautiful red

Rise up and behold your reflection
Drenched in blood a woman of perfection

See the steam from the gilded tub rise
The taste the metal is rich in the air
Candles barely lit the darkened room
As the inner door swings open

Wash the countess in warm blood
Elizabeth Bathory


9. ESCAPE FROM DUNWICH VALLEY

Who are you to tread these lands
Your presence is not welcomed here
The residents here are not to be disturbed
Now run run before they awake
The unspeakable dread of the deep
Right now they're restless in their sleep

The signs are rife
It's a deathlike night
Fear of the deep

Chills run down your spine

Something is moving there in the dark
Is it too late to get out
The hunt might already be on its way
Silent feet prepare to attack
Running fast through black
But the forest on its own is holding you back

The signs are rife
It's a deathlike night
Fear of the deep

There are places of sleep
Hidden in the deep
Never meant to be provoked
The old world does not fit with ours

Escape - from Dunwich Valley
Escape - from Dunwich Valley


10. FEED THE GUN

Grab that rifle and buckle that strap
Keep your head down and prepare to attack
A million men are waiting along the line
A million men are waiting along to die for what

When you hear that whistle sound
The guns will roar like never before
So get up get out and gain that ground now
Not a single step back attack

Feed the gun
I said hey
Feed the gun

Starring out at no man's land
The darkness rips apart and the shelling starts
Mausers and the Maxims rip through swaths of men
Not a single step back defend

Feed the gun
I said hey
Feed the gun
Hey feed the gun

Feed the gun
Dry bones will litter this ground
Feed the gun
A nationwide funeral mound


11. OATH BREAKER

Who are you to break the Oath
You know the punishment
The sentence has been cast
A traitor will never last

No one will stand in our way
Victory will be ours
We wait just out of sight
You will know when our time has come

An Oath is sworn
Do what has to be done

An oath is sworn the dice are cast
Each day might be our last

Hidden signs with hidden consequence
Whispered words and blind obedience

Blind obedience

An Oath is sworn
Do what has to be done

Order - The time of consequence has come
Execute - Approach the traitor as one

Candles burn
Daggers jab
Curses heard
Silence falls
A life is had
The Oath is all

An Oath is sworn
Do what has to be done
