Transcend the flames, Transcend the pain A cruel world free from desire The cult of Ba’al, destroy them all And for our god, we die tonight A serpent’s wish, The dragon’s kiss And now the time Take her away An evil priest, the tragic feast And now the time, come sacrifice The cult of Ba’al destroy them all And for our god, they die tonight A serpent’s wish The dragon’s kiss Another life Swallowed by flame

The Alleyway 09:07
Don’t want to hear it Don’t want to know your name I like your style girl Why don’t you come with me I’m going to take you to my place It’s a place of pleasure, sorrow and pain Why don’t you beg me please Get down on your knees Come to my alleyway We are gonna play To my alleyway You will scream my name Jennifer, Emily or Jane It doesn’t matter Because it’s all the same Two shots of Jager, a bottle of champagne Take me to heaven I’ll take you to hell and back again Panties by your knees Won’t you beg me please Come to my alleyway We are gonna play To my alleyway Never be the same At that place by the sea At that place I’ll always be Every Saturday, by the bar I’m going to take you Behind the cars

Falling angels from the sky But you won’t wonder why Your life will be the price Take a look, your book of sin But they won’t let you in Seek the man who will be king Too late to take your vows No god can save you now To the sky you clutch your cross But the time will be lost Your life will be the cost Stick to your book of lies Your twisted paradise It’s the end of your life Now they’re falling from the sky ( x4 ) Testify Through the street the horsemen ride The end is coming neigh It all stops tonight Through the slick and blood-soaked streets Hear the sick and twisted screams It’s the day of defeat Falling from the sky ( x6 ) Falling from the…

Black Beetle 03:21
The black beetle’s in the sky And your time will pass you by A darkness within the trees A haunting familiar breeze In the setting of the sun The black beetle he will come All the demons on the run A black beetle overcomes The black beetle Time to testify The black beetle Life will be the price Take the beetle for a ride And he will change, change your life In the shadows standing tall And you will never ever fall For the demon’s forever tall But the time comes for us all The black beetle A time to testify The black beetle Life will be the price

Sitting staring at my screen Dreaming of reality You know this life, it aint so bad Show me things I just can’t have Leave me here in misery Why won’t they let me be But all these things you’re giving me They won’t set me free I am your life, I am your dream A living nightmare Your fantasy You are my slave, I hold the key I am the architect of your misery Down here I have you Wired into me I have your heart Glued to the screen It’s electric hell It’s electric hell One more soul to sell I am the one, I’m what you need I am your life, I am your greed I am the hope inside your dreams I am the master of reality Down here I have you Wired into me I am the one Your every dream It’s electric hell It’s electric hell One more soul to sell

The Wire 03:15
Writing, I’ve seen the writings on the wall Its time to take your stand and let those bastards burn Walking, you know we walked on broken glass I’ll take our lives in chains and give it to their brats Life, as strange as your desire But time is short, and we’re living on a wire Hardest, I’ll make the hardest of them fall And we can break them down no matter how tall Life, your life slips from control And soon your time will come and then you’re going to crawl You know I want it now I want to see you fall You know it’s coming now You’re gonna crawl A grumbling among the masses The end is coming soon The death of a system Now revolution looms

Insular, secular Walled up in the mind Head held high Force-fed a nursery rhyme Plastic power struggle Covering all the bases Another grey December In a world that never changes Victims of the rouse, simplicity holds true Paper crisp is shaking hand You’re killing the man Ruthless, powerful Fortress in the sky Kept in lies A slave until you die Catatonic vision Covering all their faces Another fairy tale In a world that never changes Victims of the rouse, simplicity holds true Paper crisp is shaking hand You’re killing the man

Liquid Gold 03:41
Life lived in a bottle A choice that’s easy to swallow In a heart of liquid gold It will take you, beat you Leave you in the streets till your blood runs cold Your heart’s gone cold Liquid gold Blisters on your face Life a complete disgrace Searching for the fuel that keeps you alive Begging on the streets Knocking down the doors All for a fix of your liquid gold Your heart’s grown cold Liquid gold

Memento Mori 06:30
March of time but I can’t find So lost inside my mind Cold chill, a frozen rain Nothing left to kill the pain Memories of a distant past Of a time that love would last All is lost like melting snow Now I’m trapped out in the cold The memory of you and I Of a love that never dies Slow clock of ticking time Only witness to our crimes There he stood but now no more Now he’s trapped behind the door Keep on searching but you won’t see Only love will hold the key Fall down on bended knee Thinking of what used to be The memory of you and I Of a love that never dies But still alive inside With no reasons left to try The memories of you and I But even love… Even love must die Never thought you’d say goodbye Never thought I’d wonder why Never thought that I could cry Never thought I’d want to try Memento mori Even love… Even love must die

The sound of distant screams Forever soothe his righteous mind Another day in heaven’s black Killed by the wrath of our kind Toxic pursuit of justice The right wing spreads his blood and gore The march of the pig A trail of blood across the shore The rats seek sea for shelter Try to escape this sickly cull Forever engraved their innocence Their futures now annulled Cut them down with wicked axe Every bullet’s an icy blade The march of the pig Send them all to the grave All is quiet on the shore tonight A fallen angel in the hero’s fight The lacerations they glisten in the night A mother’s horror when she sees her son A father’s horror when he sees the gun A bitter justice, the devil’s won March, March of the pig ( x4 )

Thunderfuck 05:20
Deep inside a dream Shaken from a magic leaf The crystal falls like snow Get up you’re ready to go Pursuit of perfection Mankind’s directions Rolling desire Erect your funeral fire You’ve been thunderfucked ( x4 ) Lungs full of smoke Life through a cloud of dope A trip of the mind Take you further than any ride Pursuit of perfection Mankind’s infection Rolling desire Stoking your funeral fires

In the shadows the secrets lie Through the walls the sound of cries A family of forgotten souls Hidden in a darkened hole Once a week the beast arrives Torments the lives that he’s disguised Twenty years now out of control Hidden in a place called home Once a week the beast comes down Through the doors and underground Looking for his love so dear In his den of hate and fear In the corner there she lies, All the pain she can’t disguise All the children run in fear Because they know that Daddy’s here Steel doors and magnetic locks Bricks walls and daddies cock A frozen mattress, A windowless cell Tale of a life lived in hell Of a love gone horribly wrong Trapped in this dungeon for so long Daddy’s girls now a concubine Incestuous children, forbidden life Four loves born of desire The fifth one burned in fire Grandfather, father’s one and the same Products of his twisted game If I were free, if I could see the light But I’m trapped in this endless night I wish for a hero, I wish for a spell But nothing can save from this hell In a corner naked and hurt A daughter lies in incestuous rut She wished for the hero, she wished for a spell But nothing can save from this hell
