1. Rites of Death
Rites of death
Rites of undeath
We're falling
We're falling down
I told you we're into deep
Transfer life into what's dead
The act of humans playing God
Redoing the acts of medieval
Witchcraft and the worship of dead
We're falling, we're falling down
From our throne, so supposedly high
When we confront the power great
The might of our own creator
Transfer life into what's dead
The act of human playing God
Redoing the acts of medieval
Witchcraft and the worship of dead
The rites of undeath
Is the testament of our own death
2. Old Times Cruelty
Enter the halls of distant memory
Feel your previous actions once again
Your lies and deceit
Your hate and long lost love
Walk through the hallway of your past
Sense evil, like a whip from beyond
The doors keep on forever
Possibility is endless
Wander through one of the bronzecovered doors
And feel the weaves of old times cruelty
Run from the darkness, the endless void
And get yourself cornered by the demons of fear
Running and screaming though these ancient halls
The presence of something unseen carries on
Of old times cruelty
The past haunts you
Of old time cruelty
...Save Me...
The regrets of all actions that you've done before
Has now turned it's way back to you
The demons from the past
Haunts your soul
Walk though the hallway of your past
Sense the evil, like a whip from beyond
The doors keep on forever
Possibility is endless
3. Via Dolorosa
Your ideals are wicked and deceiving
How can you find peace
You seek the rightious, but find the void
Die by the sword or live by the book
Glimpse you're death withing the scunt
Seek the righteous, find the truth
The book of eternal youth
Of generations
Cold as stone, you wander still
Awaiting your inevitable death
Your quest has ended where it began
But is there really a life for me
Is there a place to Dwell
Pleasures of the flesh
Via Dolorosa
Of fear and despair, you've wandered
Of hatred and grief, you've slaughtered
I've seen you in your darkest hour
I know you as myself
But is there really a life for me...
Via dolorosa, Memento Mori!
In you I've found my nothing
In you I can't hide my pain
In you my love has gone
In you I've kept my cold
Captor of sin, you've stolen my past
Via Dolorosa
I've wasted my life for you
My hate you create
My blood is water
My life means nothing
My warmth has vanished
4. Raade
5. The Crown I Carry
The grip no longer holds
When passion abandons
Teh bonds no longer clutch
And the rope screams your name
A path of daggers
But where to step
A hallway of illusions
Of what was
Duty heavy as a mountain
The battle draws near
Your shoulders carry many
Still death seems remarkebly void
You wonder fate in lack of faith
What you consider luck, may be Gods will
A wanderer of the light will never die
Before God give his aproval
A path of daggers...
The crown I cary as an aura above me
Is the proof of who my saviour truly is
My mute cries overheard
My blindness is seen
My tears washed away
My feebleness became my strength
Duty heavy as a mountain
Teh battle draws near
Your shoulders cary many
Still death seems remarkebly void
You wonder fate in lack of faith
What you consider luck, may be Gods will
A wanderer of the light will never die
Before God give his aproval
A path of daggers...
When love is lost, only hate will remain
6. Betrayed
I am in pain
I am the cursed one
Life isn't what it was meant to be
What I didn't ask for has now turned my way
Somewhere in a garden it all turned wrong
Things I once believed in have now turned evil
Yet I pray, 'deliver me from evil'
But another spell pulled me away
Will suicide break the ring of curse
Or is there just another hell waiting out there
Will suicide break the ring of curse
Tomorrow I'll be gone, do don't look for me
I am lying on my death-bed, with chaos in my mind
My life took more than it gave
Betrayed and deceived I will now pass away
And with the gun in my hand, my questions
Are soon to be answered
Will suicide break the ring of curse...
Satan and god, the thought passes my mind
Heaven and hell, it's not up to me
But if the christians that I've seen
Represent the true god of heaven
Then it's not a place that I want to be
But if I'm blinded, please open my eyes
And help me now...
Will suicide break the ring of curse
Tomorrow I'll be gone, then you'll be all alone
7. Vale of Tears
The assembler of souls absorbes all within his reach
His seemingly perpetual glance of doom
would even make the smallest of serenities breach
As he rides the wind being the ghost of doom
Running darkness all around
A knife in her hand
Falling, rising, screaming the name of her beloved
So weak, and so weary
Something blackening her thoughts
A cloud, a force, a weight
Finding her true love lying in red
Is this reality or just a vision in her head
To be the knife as well as the wound
Is all that concerns her
Overwhelmed by a burden, like hordes of fear
The obscurity of the vale of tears
Grasping for safety, which lies all so near
Incresent malice of the vale of tears
Wandering oblivious in the foggy twilight
Shades of an obelisk shines so bright
Incredulous thoughts, bewildering her mind
Is there really a god to find
Halting through the darkest of forests
The obese and extraneous at her tail
This haunting, lingering to the extreme
She is about to quail
Then a formless mass of black, went skyward
Stars began to fade behind a veil of dark blue velvet
She stopped, she listened, nothing
Silence, an eternity passed
The silhouettes of something unseen, a presence
8. The Return
The art of the Y
Is the excellence of X
Corroding is for autumn
Renewing is for spring
The art of the Y
Is the excellence of X
Corroding is for autumn
Renewing is for spring
Recovering of the dead
Impossible for the living
The making of a copy
Is destruction of mankind
The earth is in it's autumn
The leaves have hit the ground
Corroding this earth is dying
Not knowing, you'll face the end
The coming of Christ
Is the return of X
The art of the Y
Is in the new spring
9. As I Die
My hand in the open wound
Teh knife clutches near
Teh blood of my veins spread out
My flesh becomes soiled
This desperate act of loss
The pain of knowing why
My mind slips into a blur
Upcoming questions...As I die
Foreever in search of the truth
I find myself puzzled
Don't you feel the urge
The passionate flow
The endless collision
Of purity and evil
Since we're of the flesh
We are to realize
That mankind must end
If purity will preveil
Forever in search of teh truth
I find myself puzzled
...As I die
Don't you feel the urge
The passionate flow
The endless collision
Of purity and evil
since we're of the flesh
Whe are to realize
That mankind must end
If purity will prevail
Death is my goal/Death, set me free
In my living hell I can no longer be
Please bring me back home
Where i can be free
