Dust and bones
Of your ancestors
forbidden by ancient decree
when you would choke
when you would fall and crumble
abstractions fade
Inside ancestral ruins
your master’s chains
held by forgotten empire
eternal slave, enraptured by dominion
lost inside the absolution
the blood pours from your eyes
as you stand in defiance
unwilling to sacrifice
face the end of all existence
no more shall ever rise
Winding through the final nightmare
when you would choke
when you would fall and crumble
abstractions fade
Inside ancestral ruins
your master’s chains
held by forgotten empire
eternal slave, enraptured by dominion
lost inside the absolution
the blood pours from your eyes
as you stand in defiance
unwilling to sacrifice
face the end, the mother of demons
icon of sin must die
you will pay the price
encounter purest darkness
eye of the storm
burnt offerings eternal
this endless pain
is vast and systematic
into the void
close the final gateway
all must bleed slowly
turn the rusted key
reach for your bleeding
bastards receding
intersect creation
circumspect destruction
Unmaker

Dying Earth
04:55
|
|||
Slaughter them all our tanks shall dominate
bring down their cities
lay smashed and in flames
strafing the landscape the combat drones strike
warfare and greed that’s destroying all life
End all life
burn all resistance
world in flames
death by religion
gunships and armour shred all who survive
force of destruction – burning inside
warfare and combat take over your life
watching in horror they send you to die
End your life
burn all resistance
break your mind
crush their positions
lost our way
the human race
burning down
to eradicate
slip away
as you lose control
destroying your life
as your start to fall
centuries reigning destruction supreme
unspoken code of relentless disease
empire of darkness built up by the slaves
limitless lives fall into nameless graves
Lost your way
forgotten haze
can’t escape trapped in your maze
I hear you
I call your name
open your eyes to a world in flames
Fatal distrust as you lie dead ablaze
ending your freedom controlled and enslaved
now you refuse to conform and obey
their new world order shall rise and enslave
you can’t speak
your words constricted
mind enslaved
lost to destruction
Lost your way
forgotten haze
can’t escape trapped in your maze
I hear you
I call your name
open your eyes to a world in flames
Wars you feed
hope is collapsing
world in flames
Eliminated

Lords Of Decay
03:27
|
|||
Plague invades the flesh till it’s grey
life falls into rot
new death every day
Intake of plague
a morbid landscape
An infinite sickness where nothing escapes
Visions of Decay (plague creates decay)
Melting lives away (plague creates decay)
Faith invades the mind till it’s grey
controlled by fear
a man-made mistake
the spreading of lies
the corrupt propagate
wretched the call of terminal blame
Visions of Decay (plague creates decay)
Stripping life away (plague creates decay)
Ascending drones of the plague
Serving the lords of decay
Burnt this place, morbidity reigns
dispose the dead
distorted their shapes
oppressed by fate
chosen to wait
toxic corpse herd to incinerate
Visions of Decay (plague creates decay)
Melting hope away (plague creates decay)
Ascending drones of the plague
Serving the lords of decay

Extinction Of Flesh
05:58
|
|||
carbonized and de-evolved
just another wrath
limitations rendered blind
broken burning on
falling into this black hole eternal aftermath
armour plated to survive broken and you fade
denial obeyed
flesh slowly consumed
follow these graves
as you lived
risen immortal aflame
Brutalised for transcendence
followers are denied
Burning selfish desire
crawling for the common goal
Endless eyes of dependence
human host must die
Corporate breach of
moral function
Ratting out your fellow man
soul remains
Flesh is made extinct
bones remain
Rotting human meat
Flesh prepared for extinction
burning hell in the skies
endless vistas shrouded darkness
putrid hatred arise
Endless eyes of dependence
human host must die
Corporate breach of
moral function
Ratting out your fellow man
bones aren’t hard to break
replace flesh with steel
hope in time will break
flesh becomes extinct
flesh is now extinct
flesh now obsolete
raw the souls they fade
rotting human meat
calling beyond
the veil is lifted
bones reduced to ashes
Calling beyond
the veil is lifted
finally
we rise from hell
tolling
the end of the world
rising towards your victim
far beyond
the veil is lifted
finally
rise from hell
tolling, tolling the end and erasing
violated

Black Roads
05:23
|

Riders of the blackened plague
locusts of the demon age
burning with the chosen hate
riders on the
BLACK ROADS
Forces from beyond the grave
TO YOUR
Wretched carcasses in chains
SLOW DEATH
Suffering to be enslaved
Master of your final torment
Fire, dominion of pain
chosen to suffer, violence in vain
Pervasive ideology, in your mind
weakness held high, the symbol of
the apostate
Spiritual death follows broken path
absorbed and drained drowning in their grasp
Journey to death is to choose this path
souls that will drain on the road to black
Carving skulls for the elders of hate
when the world is withering grey
far beyond killing visions and plague
burning effigies of hate
fires that burn as the visions of hell
take your eyes to a limitless grave
claws begin ripping pieces of flesh
as the body succumbs to plague

Skyburner
04:35
|

In the fiery depths of hell
there is a force more evil than man
he will come straight for your soul
into the unknown it will go
burn
cast down from the skies above
like a biblical plague
to wreak havoc
on the world that we know
this evil is here to stay
soul will burn and you will die
as he destroys you from the other side
fallen one that came from the sky
you will now perish in its eyes
burn
confess yourself unholy one
for your sin
payments due
blood that spills upon the earth
slave resigned to a silent doom
soul will burn and you will die
as he destroys you from the other side
fallen one that came from the sky
you will now perish in its eyes
fiery the angels fell
burning with the fires of orc
moments lost in time
architects of hell

Borne by the oceans
Hunters of the seas
Cold iron masters
Fall to your knees
Waves bring relentless forces
War from the East
Prepare for subjugation
Face your defeat
Run
find nowhere to hide
Blood washes their hands
Ribbons to the blade
ripping through your land
honour is enshrined
temple to the blade
heads lay on the ground
for the shogunate
Borne by the oceans
Hunters of the seas
Cold iron masters
Fall to your knees
Blood
Spilling Underground
Hidden cities fall
ruined and devoured
lightning surge of war
Punished by the blade
Forbidden technology
Ensuring you pain
Never shall you see
Borne by the oceans
Hunters of the seas
Cold iron masters
Fall to your knees
Endless
Blades fly
the scent
of blood
rise to
the sky
echoes of screaming
Cities
Falling
Silenced
By carnage
Shrouds of
Darkness
For honour
No prisoners
A Price is on your head,
you watch your people burn.
Outlawing energy?
A fate that you have earned.
these oceans filled with blood
relentless blades of death
post nuclear federation
can’t stop this massacre
the fall of civilisation
for the imperator

Unspoken
07:19
|

what remains unsaid,
unspoken
words are in my head
in this place, stare into the rain
hear the window shake
hear this creeping pain
you are somewhere else
and nothing is the same
holding on for hope
a hope that’s fading fast
something in you broke
it's given way at last
fading ruined wretch
I’m not the thing you see
see me as I was
or who I could have been
feeling I’m erased
the weight is growing strong
I can’t feel my face
was my judgement wrong
holding on for hope
a hope that’s fading fast
something in you broke
it's giving way at last
what it was you had
was never really there
something that you felt
a loss you are aware
how did it feel
when you walked away
was this not real
I start to fade
holding on for hope
a hope that’s fading fast
something in you broke
it's giving way at last
what it was you had
was never really there
something that you felt
a loss you are aware
my hands are tied
my mouth has been sewn shut
this heart inside
is turning into dust
these chains of mine
are breaking from the rust
do I hold on
or have you lost all trust
my voice
all my nerves are shot
I thought I was
but maybe I was not
I’m growing old
my body turns to dust
must I hold on
do what you must
these chains of mine
are breaking from the rust
can I hold on
or have you lost all trust
my voice is gone,
and my nerves are shot
I thought I was
maybe I was not

Ghosts
03:55
|
|||
War and destruction,
and endless bloodthirst,
nations fighting and killing for cash
knives that are shredding your flesh,
the unholy destroying the enemy’s mind
trapped by a system, designed to destroy,
every fragment of all that you are
cult built of sickness, and dead obsolescence,
a temple to all that has died
A mockery made of the history built from blood of the thousands who died
political dogma outdated religion, these lies that define what we are
thousands of lives that are ruled and controlled by an authoritarian hand
control and manipulate truth into barbs that cause consciousness to cauterise
stumbling in blood as the descending ashes
mutate and destroy all mankind
rage that is barely contained
now emerges blood boiling preparing to die
cities on fire filled with bodies decaying
the earth dying before your eyes
vomiting blood in the Silence and darkness
the species of man has expired
Stay the waiting hand
of the destroyer
descending hate
unfed deception
march of death
armed to the teeth
fall down and die
in ruins
ghosts of war
march of death
armed to the teeth, infra red
fall down and die
they march on
hunger they feed
for combat
