- Agonised
Agonizing road to ruin
Fright filled roots of soul
Iconoclasmic nightmare watching
Grief now uncontrolled
Uncertain loss, my pain - frustration
Now to reign regret
Wreaking havoc, near undoing
- Ashen Epitaph
Dedicated to Julian May, author of "The Many Coloured Land(The Saga of the Exiles in the Pliocene epoch)
The rupture of the brain from flesh, children of the black.
Devouring mother, call her blessed, with impetus they lack.
Glorified spineless triumph, sick polluted mind.
Grusome child in void, evolution of humankind.
Operant child in unity. Unseen, unheard this day.
Floating mind is veiled in blood, the body is taken away.
Stripped of appendages, ungiven choice.
- Blood From Stone
Roasted visions unherald the call
Pay the piper or face the fall
Unpleasant benevolence
Undesired, it's your defence
Rotting flavoured retribution
Burning hotly in your throat
Perished antiseptic inner domains
- Carcinoma Angel
CARCINOMA ANGEL
Benediction / Darren Brookes
A stark contrast to bleakly view
Monochromic ways
Fecund creeping ulcerate
Cancer feeds on me
Begin my solstice, forth of twelve
- Deadfall
I lie screaming
Remembrance of the past
Emotions betray me below
Adversity - My martyrdom
Rancid breakdown bethothed
Memories of passion overwhelming me
Corrupted love is displaced
- Denial
You guard your mind, your thoughts must not devour
Your soul at crux will cower
And the image is mine
Taunting you, unleash eternal time
Am I what you see ?
Rising doubts will forever be set free
Torment, I return
From thoughts you¹ve had and are now left to burn
- Destroyer
Originally performed by Twisted Sister
he spent his life
a silent sentinel
for all to fear
he walks, he talks, he thinks, he feels,
but no dare go near
he takes in all he sees
- Down on Whores
"What they have in store for them...
...do I desire..."
"They will suffer just as I...
...revenge on the whore."
Take the eyes, take the head
Leave them all for dead."
"My hands are cold...
...my heart... is colder still"
- Easy Way to Die
You'll get a taste of the forbidden fruit
Of what I have to give
Temptation can be so sweet
To feel what it's like to truly live
[Chorus]
All the depravity
All the crime and sin
- Eternal Eclipse
Another sunrise swathes the earth in light.
The sun, a symbol of innocence, inverse of the night.
Yet with all this energy comes a certain weakness.
'O hear it's silent cries as the blackness envelops.
Amass, congregate. Form an ashen shroud, asphyxiate.
Secure restraint reigns, mummify the sun.
- Foetus Noose
Cloying blackness
Within the womb
Unwanted child's
Fleshly tomb
Umbilicus
A weaven choke
Hung in time
Frail neck is broke
- Forged In Fire
Scraping the Earth in search of the essence
Metallic rock ore where iron is present
Extraction smelters burn hot with phosphorescence
Rivulets of sweat steam hot in the mold
Splashes in magenta, yellow and gold
Glowing sparks flashing too hot to hold
- Griefgiver
Writhing in pain
Your third eye blinks, untamed
We were one to live
Now there¹s but grief you give
Griefgiver
Dread the hurt
Crush me in the dirt
Panic, extol
- Grind Bastard
Grind Bastard - return of the weapon of war
Discharge my stigma
Now I'm back to even the score
Bastard - was condemned through dignity
Mark my soul eternal
Abasing physically
Reduce your will coz I am the Grind Bastard
- I
I am the wind that tears your sails
The broken cross rejecting nails
I am the holy crucified
Yet sinful are my lusts and pride - I
I am ashes I am dust
I'm always held within disgust
Don't follow me for I mislead
- I Am The Disease
In a world of noones
I'll be the freak
Turn and hide from the mask you see
Misshapen face of fear
I will be your obscenity
I will be the depraved
I will be your deepest fear
- I Bow To None
I looked within myself and I turned
Many laddered mental maze burnt
Forever is the time that I walked along
Sufferance in silence is my syndrome
Take my path - Never last
In ruthless pain - I'll always reign
Silent sound - Stalking ground
- Immaculate Facade
Amidst the elegance
Amidst the starving suffering
The supreme predator in an age of dogs
Their wound will never heal
Dim witted trusting populace
Cloaking in discarded death
An oral tracheotomy
- In Our Hands, the Scars
Corruption and disfiguration
Those serpentine debauched
In retrogressive torment
Claw at the scabbed Gordian knot
Blistering skin, burns from within
Cremate and char
Composite death, draw your last breath
In our hands, the scars
- Jumping At Shadows
It had to be done!
Conspiring web
Killing me, the end
Let me haunt you
A chilling tale
Most fulfilling
- Magnificat
Follow the bleeder, undamned you decry
Consummate spirits ne'er follow the lie
Open your heart towards that your mind feels
Death is to conquer all that is surreal
Fortune's enlightenment, hopeful rays of light
Dramatic abundance, shattering the night
Grow biting conflict, halted to an end
The future is certain, the hope we defend
- Nervebomb
Fear is the mind killer, fear will infest
Gratify the nihilist, begin brain arrest
Nervebomb - emaciated nervous tract
Nervebomb - to this torture I react
Panic inside cracking skull
Abrasive aggravate
- Neverwhen
Vast tracts of isolation
Weaponizing time
Laid to waste and conquered
Neverwhen live and/or die
States of flux
Lambasted to the core
Finality’s insight
A Neverwhen of war
- Nightfear
NIGHTFEAR
Benediction / Darren Brookes
There's a disease a wrenching bane
Adverse twisted minds
Grip of fear within the flesh
Is eating you alive
Ruins the lives of innocent
- Painted Skulls
PAINTED SKULLS
Benediction / Darren Brookes
From the museum of sleep
Unliving eyes see death's subtle jest
In my sorrow they mourn the past
Yet celebrate their eternal rest
- Paradox Alley
Thoughts through the window
Of my mind's eye
Bring another slice of terror
Yet away with my fears
I cross this pitiful world's end
Drawn to the mortification
With the creeping of my flesh
Arising lair of wounds
- Rabid Carnality
The moon demands the blood
This desire, slake its thirst
Under lunar loyalty
It’s my progeny, my world
A damnable life and death
Wretched curse appeased
Consuming hearts, hot and raw
Worship the disease
- Riders On The Storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm
- Scriptures in Scarlet
One incantation summons
From Kandarian scrolls
Out of isolation’s plane
Begin devouring whole
Scarlet script recite
Invoking acolytes
Possession will reprise
Deadite colonise
- Soulstream
In oceans of light
Haunts the bleak river
Mindless spectre
Summons malice without thought
Insane paradox of dreams gone awry
Stalked and thrown onto funeral pyres
- Stigmata
They will bear my mark
I can not be stopped
This mission sent from god
To teach these poor lost souls to die
There a moment of stillness before the attack
Silence surrounds and invades me
I have had vision, men covered in blood
- Subconscious Terror
Swirling void, unfathomable dark, inner cranial conflict.
Wading in detached reality, infinite illusion.
Dark abstract, vice, like grip
Subconscious terror!
Never underestimate the unseen.
Brain producing fear and hate.
Overpowering images, the macabre side of you.
Physical untruths, fuel for it=B9s cruel tricks.
- Suffering feeds me
Deep in the darkest mental recess
There dwelt a force within the abscess
That you called fear
You were never alone
One final victim's dying dreams
An ecstasy of filth and screams
Emancipated nightmares
- Suicide Rebellion
Scale the walls of hopelessness
Lungs breath blackened tar
Abusive instinct takes control
No more hope left under darkened star
Staring down a bottomless pit
No escape, no way out
The only way through is down
- The Blight at the End
Decimate spurious idols
Screaming in demise
Apocryphal apocalypse
Lords of the deep arise
From within the chasm
Crawling from the gorge
Arising out of darkness
The fires of evil forged
- The Bodiless
Final state, rejuvenate - Acquiring the world
of mind without a host - Dreams unfulfilled
Ominous mental man - Leave me bodiless
Percept disincarnate - Physical regress
The Bodiless - Mindforce progress
This scattered Ash - Our Epitaph
- The Crooked Man
An errant brain in overdrive
I could suffocate alone
This mortal seam is crooked now
Identity a disfigured drone
Abandon it beyond
Reality that breeds
Serpentine is spawned
The Crooked Man, a legend that
- They Must Die Screaming
They Must Die Screaming
Destined for great power
Hidden secret of twisted faith
From sacrificial squalor
To disinterring amoral disgrace
Following in the footsteps
In the wrecking trail of the elusive witch
- Undirected Aggression
Your life means nothing.
Parting isn't such sweet sorrow.
Dripping with hate.
Words from the inner soul.
Realization of my ways.
Evidently unapparant.
Ignominous behaviour.
Physically repulsed by you.
- Unfound Mortality
Normalicy in threat evermore
Taken apart within the mental core
By ones who walk the wounded land
Uncanny destiny so damned
Mortal eccentricity
Overrule the weird in alacrity
Contradiction tragedy pays
Immortal, shallow, fearless and empty ways
- Violation Domain
Crawl on our knees through the gutter
From an untimely demise
By remission of all sins
Forsaking old and wise
Violation of domain
An area of conquest
- We Are Legion
On the night of twelve, all Devils drawn
The prophecy intoned
Adamantine gates pitched wide
Heralds return to the throne
Cursed god-adorers deny the beast in man
Tooth and claw
Of Hell possessed, alien elite
Legion in arms to war - War!
- We the Freed
Harvest growth to captivate
Liberate your mind
Seek the truth, co-operate
Removal of the grind
Supposition, theorise
Germinate and seed
Draw into aseity
- West Of Hell
An odd unreality
Macabre life at home
Dominating Father figure
Sadist to the bone
Ape-like looks the doting parent
Prone to fits of rage
Sadist and a Mother's boy
Deflowers come of age
