(Instrumental)
2. Hellstorm
Hellstorm
it never rains
unless it pours
catch your death
in the eternal storm
eternal storm
heavens open
the downfall
soaked to the skin
join the deathroll
sound the deathbell
hellstorm
climb aboard
the death wagon
you can't escape
the rain
hellstorm
3. Life chain
Life Chain
recognise your chains
you create your own slavery
masters forge the locks but...
you give them the key
hoping your shackles rust in the rain
your just another link in the life chain
take control - life chain
recognise your own potential
break your bonds with your inner power
no amount of ties can hold you down
throw away your mask
take control - life chain
recognise your chains
take control of your life
rip the head from your tormentor
grind their bones to dust
life chain... RUST
take control - life chain
4. War machine
War Machine
a red dawn
turns to black
another day of..
the war machine...
MACHINE
waves of hate
crash against the shore
alone we swim in a
sea of war
a child falls and screams
under the weight of the war machine
now at last we are as one
although it means nothing anymore
master and begger die as one
the final chapter in the final
WAR
to this twisted world I leave nothing of worth
except my bones to litter this earth
in a land that has no sun, destroyed my home but who has
WON?
but who has won.. won?
5. Evilution
Evilution
progress? one step backwards
look what we've done to our homes
evolved? regression, yes
we're now at full speed
and no one's in control
forward? technology bliss
but for all our knowledge
we know nothing
heading towards a total halt
the beginning of the end
has long since past
they came... and destroyed
progress? one step backwards
look what we've done to our homes
evolved? regression, yes
we're now at full speed
and no one's in control
6. Rise of the serpent men
Rise of the Serpent Men
the serpent men led the sect
to the catheral
falling over bodied of wars before
in the name of their master
MASTER
so they slayed and were slain
for the legacy of eternal life
blind to the church's profligacy
blind to their evil lies
LIES
the legacy of christ
handed down to surpress again
the insane pave the way
the rise of the serpent men
SERPENT MEN
7. The final war
The Final War
looked up at the sky for the last time
so much to learn, now I never will
we screamed out in anger at their stupidity
a million souls cry out as one
so they finally sent them on their way
cruising across the sky and...
LAND
the world exploded in my head
the life blood poured from my veins
arrival time... ZERO!
we lay to waste our world
now face to face with our exodus
we now curse our own apathy
much to late to defend
we're doomed to see our planets end
so they finally sent them on their way
cruising across the sky and...
LAND
the world exploded in my head
the life blood poured from my veins
arrival time... ZERO!
we lay to waste our world
OUR WORLD
the final war
