Rise of the Dethroned
08:19
|
|||
The time of this war has gone on for too long
Innocent lives lost for the cause of nothing
We can only gain nothing but pain
What is there to reign if all has turned gray?
Peace traits which couldn’t be reached
Motionless masses hold each other at bay
Where does this end? The whole world bleeds on this day
Peace traits which couldn’t be reached
It’s time to make a stop to what couldn’t be ceased
One man against his very own nation
Otherwise we’re heading straight towards damnation
What have I done to earn all of this?
I knew it you fucking betrayer!
I loved you I trusted you
We’re not done, you’ll get what’s deserved!
In the land of corruption
Where only death can transcend
Betrayed for money and power
He shall have his revenge
Arise, my brethren and take back what’s ours
You betrayed us and now you shall pay with your blood
Hatred is all I can feel but now, it’s your turn to die
This is the Rise of the Dethroned
Death marching through the hallows, castle walls in the horizon
The battlefield filled with corpses, each one to raise our strength
Prepare yourselves for your atonement is near
We shall reconquer what belongs to us
At the rise of the dawn you will feel my wrath
There’s no escaping us for we will never rest
This infection you spread I am the cure
Through flames we’ll stand there is no stopping us
You have been prevailed, your time has come
Our undead odyssey has come to an end
The screams of agony as we feast on you
The time of your tyranny has been revoked

The Fractured Light
04:13
|
|||
Abysmal hatred, addicted to sorrow
Inhale deceit, concussion
World of color, now motionless, clouded by shadows
Inject disdain, indoctrination
Perception of reality, now gone forever
Illusion of life, fall to nihil
Harvester of guilt, retribution
An illusion of what was supposed to be
Hate designing my head
Violently continuing to break me
Illuminate death's presence
In absence of sanity
Schitzophrenic hallucinations
Excursion through existence
Forgive my annihilation
Self-destruction to extraction
All I've had
All I've lost
All that's left for me, this
Fractured light inside me
All I know
Drifts away
All is fading with this
Fractured light beneath me
Hate designing my head
Violently continuing to break me
Illuminate death's presence
In absence of sanity
Schitzophrenic hallucinations
Excursion through existence
Forgive my annihilation
Self-destruction to extraction
I fall into depravity
Awakening the beast in me
Annihilate the reason to forget
The conflict between me and my head
In absence of sanity
Awakening the beast in me
My life slips away as
I step into The Fractured Light

In the Shallow Ground
03:51
|
|||
Wake up dead but still alive
How could I redefine?
Dorment mind of black desire
Infected matter beyond my eyes
Decaying reality of solitude
I'm on the road to perdition
These cursed remains
Definition between life and death
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
Condemned to eternal life
Enfolding the passive fire
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
Condemned to eternal life
Desperately I wish to die
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
Requiem for a lifeless ghoul
Obliterate me on my own
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
A sane mind behind lifeless eyes
Eternal agony, a life I'll decline
Through darkness I wander alone
Unrecognized, with no love
A lifeless wraith I can't deny
Eternal dream yet feels so alive
Aberration of human life
Bereft of self-control
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
Condemned to eternal life
Enfolding the passive fire
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
Condemned to eternal life
Desperately I wish to die
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
Requiem for a lifeless ghoul
Obliterate me on my own
Infected with a restless soul
Bury me Six Feet Under
Paranormal
Dissonance
A spawn of
Abhorrance
Abstention of
Interference
-
Please help me,
Hear my cry
Help me regain me
Clarify
Abandon my
Eternity
Stuck here, between two worlds
Left my soul trapped in void
Cosmic dreams of eternal sleep
Now seem only a footstep away
Coffin made of obsidian
Dug my grave, now lay me down
Release me now from this life
Grant me now my pain's demise!

Retribution
06:01
|
|||
You took everything away from me
But I promise I’ll take it back
Your imperium will fall down
Dystopia, from the dust I rise
Despised reflections
Show us your obscene nature
Unholy revelations
You have to confess
If I die tonight
I’m taking you with me
We will see this world burn
This is my retribution
My eyes deceive me, it’s black and white
I can’t forgive, what’s done is done
We’re none immortal and I’ll prove it tonight
Your defiance, the days are gone
Despised reflections
Show us your obscene nature
Unholy revelations
You have to confess
If I die tonight
I’m taking you with me
We will see this world burn
This is my retribution
Your darkened heart will suffer
You’ll face what you’ve done to us
You will feel your touch of death
This war you just can’t win
The blood flowing underneath me
This is the day of annihilation
Despised reflections
Show us your obscene nature
Unholy revelations
You have to confess
If I die tonight
I’m taking you with me
We will see this world burn
This is my retribution

Impending Doom
03:21
|
|||
Take a moment to reconsider
This fucking harvest of human sorrow
You are the man of many faces
None of which you stand behind
Extermination of all living species
Coming is the end of our essence
This is your empire of dust
As everything else has ceased to exist
Machines of life, that deny our existence
You think you are a god, but you're not worth shit
I am no longer a slave of your own demise
Fuck your obsessions and fuck your oppression
Your fractured reality corrupted by power
I will make a stop to this with my own crusade
When the grass turns to ash we know we are facing
Impending Doom!
Pollution spreads as you take your last breath
Think a moment for who made you the king?
A future in mud awaits for you now
At the gates of hell I'll be laughing
They'll break us down!
All hope is gone
No more lies!
Don't break us down
Fuck your life!

Path to Salvation
08:00
|

Dug me up from six feet under
Another chance to change things right
Gave me life after death
Made me serve my debt
Acolyte of my demise
Preparations for the ritual
I adore you, I worship you
You divine, unholy goddess
The time for our new ruler has come
A dark crusader from the underworld
Tyrants of the light be defiled
Unholy requiem for us all
For you I give my life
To live immortally
As you are the one
To eternally set me free!
My life shall light the flame
Death is my destiny
My life shall light the flame
Death is my destiny
The time for our new ruler has come
A dark crusader from the underworld
Tyrants of the light be defiled
Unholy requiem for us all
For you I give my life
To live immortally
As you are the one
To eternally set me free!
Reborn, yet not invigorated, why am I forsaken?
I don't want to be forgotten, left in this purgatory
Chaos, decay, destruction I am to inflict
Color fades towards grey, shadow shall overcome
The ritual has began, the new rise of death
From dust to ashes, degenerate all lifeforms
Declaration of defense, our last offense
The final act before fall of men
Through darkness I am to ascend
Endless slaughter, unnatural selection
To unearth the false god of this world
Creation prevails the fractured evolution
From ashes I rise
To dethrone the kings
Inflamed by hatred
To the depths I descend
Human race doomed from it's birth
In the brink of annihilation
Inferno shall rain upon thee
A fiery death to whole mankind
Where is your god
To save you from this fate
Death of a martyr
To reclaim your dignity
An illusion of resurrection
A false habit of failure
The garden of Eden now
Engulfed in flames
Reanimated corpses
Fill the scenery
With eyes of white
Flesh they desire
The lifeless scourge
Answering to the summon
A walking nightmare
Has entered this world
Desperate cries
of hopeless mercy
All beauty beyond
Shall face destruction
Beneath my aura
Breeding the darkness
Despair eternal
All existence now leveled with darkness

The Crusade
11:33
|
|||
On this dawn the sky weeps blood, frightened soldiers, silently they weep
Living in here, it makes you think: how could we know if there was a god
Politicians calling the crusade against communism, a massacre unseen
The storm won’t stop until the last man drops, no long we fight for our cause, at this point it’s just us or them
Deep down I fear
I fear that my end is near
Death’s lurking everywhere
A machine gun firing from afar
Bodies pile up on the riverside
Pinned down there's no escape
All along this was our fate
A dark tunnel is what Charlie calls home
Dim light my trusty Colt in the other
One mistake would be my end
A way out it’s all I want to find
The crusade to wipe out all evil
It turns the good into monsters
The horror in the woods
I wouldn’t even know it’s there
The napalm falling from the sky
I can still hear them scream in my head
The jungle haunts my mind
The morningrise will bring us down
Humans tearing up this world
Piece by piece tearing it apart
Burning the wild break the sight
All we can see is the horizon ablaze
I can still feel the fear
What if I’ll end back there?
The war has ended, but
I’m still fighting
A dark tunnel is what Charlie calls home
Dim light my trusty Colt in the other
One mistake would be my end
A way out it’s all I want to find
The crusade to wipe out all evil
It turns the good into monsters
The horror in the woods
I wouldn’t even know it’s there
The napalm falling from the sky
I can still hear them scream in my head
The jungle haunts my mind
The morningrise will bring us down

Demons Within
08:26
|
|||
I know I haven't always done right for everyone
But at least I've tried the best I can
I keep seeing this living nightmare
Of which the shadow I am
Disconnect myself from emotions
Demonic blood runs through my veins
I can't control myself
Please, stop, before it's too late!
I am the servant of chaos my mind is in turmoil
Forcefully I continue this crusade of death
What have I done to earn this? I descend into desperation
I've been obsessed by the Demons Inside!
Live images of my victims, they haunt my memories
The people who trusted in me, eternal exile; the only solution
This is my curse to carry
Oh, please, God, make it stop!
Disconnect myself from emotions
Demonic blood runs through my veins
I can't control myself
Please, stop, before it's too late!
I'm sorry for all the
Bad things that I've done in my past life
But nothing I've done can justify
This hell you put me through
A simple fuck you for
Everything you've ruined from me
All in all I'm forced to watch as
All I've loved turns to dust
My enemy from within what is it that you want from me?
My rapture is awakening I slit my wrists, now set me free!
I am the servant of chaos my mind is in turmoil
Forcefully I continue this crusade of death
What have I done to earn this? I descend into desperation
I've been obsessed by the Demons Inside!

The Final Destination
13:26
|
|||
Today I stand alone here in the hands of death
I keep peeling my skin off as I watch my world collapse
From the depths of my heart, this war that I've fought
It's finally over, to the noose my road leads
The dusk rises as my color fades
Anxiety fills my mind, it lights my eyes inside
I am suffocating, inner annihilation
I'm on the path to my final destination
Locked in a prison in the ruins of my mind
Fractured pieces of me try to take a look inside
What the fuck am I here for? I don't want to be alive
If everyone has their time I guess my time is now
No-one to mourn for me, the knife cuts in my flesh
The blood escapes my veins, now I shall reach my peace
Forgive me for what I have done
It’s just the only way to get rid of the pain
I am becoming my own shadow
There’s nothing left for me here
My agony unbearable
I feel like I’m falling down
I am feeling this urge in the depth of the night
What could I do? I am losing this fight
I push my smokes straight into my bones
I can see the pain, but it just ain’t there
The smell of burning flesh, this is my favorite stench
If I shed a tear would I man up to face it?
You think hell is where I’ll end up, but
Hell is what I carry with me every single day
My flesh opens and the blood runs out
I am done with this life but why do I doubt?
The rope hangs on a tree next to a cliff
I tie it to a noose and place it to my neck
On the edge I'm standing and I wonder
I try to think of a reason not to step down
Reality unknown
I’m drowning in my sorrow
Destiny foreseen
Blackened excursion
My life, my curse
Death is my rapture
Voices from within
Mental insurrection
Finally, I am released
Tonight, my breath has ceased
My blood runs cold, I am on my own
Oh, my beloved soul just let me go
Forgive me for what I have done
It’s just the only way to get rid of the pain
I am becoming my own shadow
I have nothing to retain
The dusk rises as my color fades
Anxiety fills my mind, it lights my eyes inside
I am suffocating, inner annihilation
I'm on the path to my final destination
The dusk has risen, my colors have faded
Anxiety fills my mind, it lights my eyes inside
I am suffocating, inner annihilation
I have reached my final destination
