1. Forgotten Existence
Driven onwards
Past the point of no return
Into the unknown
Of lessons never learnt
Their names - immortal
Remembered evermore
In memory of glory
Forever fallen
Standing proud
Battles raging all around
Fading past
The revelations abound
Anger predominates the mind
Gathering all strength
Tenacity is found
Honour now forgotten
Fear lost inside
Despair no longer
At all wasted life
Their names - immortal
Remembered evermore
In memory of glory
Forever fallen
Now forgotten - all thoughts of years gone by
Fallen forever - forever fallen
Life denied
2. Attack In The Aftermath
Turn around and shield your eyes,
Don't look back as the earth dies
NO tomorrow for eternity'
The apocalyptic prophecy'
Our futile lives shall be no more.
Innocent victims of the nuclear glare,
Are torn apart as they stand unaware.
The whole worlds is radioactive,
None shall escape the fall-out rain,
Our future life shall be steeped in pain.
Feel the chill of the nuclear winds,
Our planets downfall shall now begin.
No excurse for the vast destruction,
Caused by man with no comprehension.
Life expectacy now decreases,
Our foolish games, what have we learnt?
No time for sorrow as the world burns.
3. Psychological Warfare
Turn around and shield your eyes,
Don't look back as the earth dies
NO tomorrow for eternity'
The apocalyptic prophecy'
Our futile lives shall be no more.
Innocent victims of the nuclear glare,
Are torn apart as they stand unaware.
The whole worlds is radioactive,
None shall escape the fall-out rain,
Our future life shall be steeped in pain.
Feel the chill of the nuclear winds,
Our planets downfall shall now begin.
No excurse for the vast destruction,
Caused by man with no comprehension.
Life expectacy now decreases,
Our foolish games, what have we learnt?
No time for sorrow as the world burns.
4. In Battle There Is No Law
No escape, there is no way out,
Of this constructed existence,
A created image of untrue conception,
You cannot find the real you.
Manipulated a hyped invention,
Who is this false identity?
The ideal person, perfect role model,
Beneath you can feel the cracks,
Now your nerves begin to break,
Losing grip, now its too late,
Perceive this no fallacy,
This icon faces insanity,
On the verge of mental breakdown,
Forgotten realms of madness are found,
Now you face the final curtain,
Your future life is now uncertain.
5. Drowned In Torment
You never thought life could come to this
Man reborn to die upon the altar of war
And now we stand, to face the truth
This world now enslaved, bound by hate
In fear of life now that the mindless control
As the flame of hope for mankind now burns away
For now you stand alone to die
Whilst visions of horror infest your mind
Destructive - Man's lust for power
Infinity - A lifetime of war
Destroying your world, again and again
Suffering in torment, through agonizing pain
Killing for pleasure, only the strong shall remain
An arising slaughter, as hatred and terror now reigns
Now reigns
Destructive - The world ripped apart
Infinity - A never ending fear
6. Eternal War
From the gloving fragments of what remains,
The soul shall rise from amongst the flames,
From smouldering ruins the power grows,
Feel the pulse of fear as we regain control.
From the ashes of a million dead,
The children of tomorrow now are led.
Into the darkness as emotions slowly
Memories of the past cannot be saved.
Bowing down to face your new found life,
There is no escape, you must comply,
This resurrected hate can't be denied.
Asking for redemption - we laugh and look away,
There shall be no exception - Revenger on man begins today.
You thought that is was all over, But its only just begun,
For your life is mortal, Look to what fate will become.
Learn to live afraid of what may be,
For we possess this world - All that you see,
Your life is no more than a game to me.
Visions of the future reflected in the past,
Existing in the present which surely cannot last.
From the void terror takes its hold,
Face the wrath as history unfolds.
7. Realm Of Chaos
Psychological warfare
Still bear the scars from a past war ceased
Neurological nightmare
Torture suffered holds the mind from peace
Can't face reality unrestrained mentality
Hiding from the darkness of your insanity
Driven to soul despairs
Madness in your mind tears
No escape from this mental insanity
Captive life, held in past
Deranged memories still burning in your brain
Thoughts of pain, darkest dreams
Self-inflicted torture, eating at your mind
Punishment, no pain release
Captive to the darkness of this psychotic insanity
Tearing in deep mind
Madness dwells with pain
Destruction of your life
Renders you insane
8. Domination
Into your minds now, waiting to unleash
Words of their law, they have come to teach
Growing in strength, draining power from life
The ultimate forces, masters of the seven nights rise
Captives of the timeless wastes
Imprisoned for no crimes
Held by the force of desolation
Damnation for all time
From fallen masses, arisen life
Survivors start to rise
Survival instinct gathered strength
Quest for power burns inside
Excessive violence, fight for control
Aggressive vengeance taking control
Of the power you hold
Deep in your minds now, power out of reach
Hate is their law, vengeance now you seek
Diminished strength, fighting for your life
With subdued forces, servants of hatred now rise
Overthrow intentions growing
Authority of command
Vengeance breeding, justice seekers
Of the barren lands
9. Destructive Infinity
Denial of your destiny
Your future - Your fate - I control
Denounce your past existence
Your life means nothing to you now
Enslaved by the power of fear
The torture - The pain - I unleash
Suffering at the hands of command
Mercy for you is out of reach
Brainwashed, past lost
Now taught only to obey
Mind scan, thought ban
All that exists is all that I say
The future you see
Is my enforced reality
Command me obey
Your mind now belongs to me
The executioner of all recollection
To eliminate the memories you hold
10. Warmaster
You watch in terror, in fear of your life
Their execration revealed, only your death will suffice
You cannot conceal, this reality from your mind
As unknown powers, are unleashed upon mankind
Unleashed upon mankind
Running - in search of safety
No escape - from the deadly wrath
Screaming - you beg for mercy
Silenced - by the searing blast
You are forced to believe, this is for real
Mind frozen with horror, as your body trembles in fear
No prayers for deliverance, your gods you now forsake
Summon courage from within, face your unperceived fate
Unleashed upon mankind
Awaiting - with expectation
Impending - life's annihilation
Annihilation
Mass genocide - the resolution
Now verified - out termination
Now the stench of death, abides throughout the world
As infesting plagues, cause agonies untold
Unleashed upon mankind
You are the final victim, no one else has survived
Alone you now suffer, eagerly waiting to die
The ending draws nearer, our extinction is justly deserved
Through thoughtless intentions, this holocaust incurred
The closing chapter finished, now face the torment and pain
Through death it becomes clearer, mankind alone is to blame
11. After Life
From darkness
Through mists of time
Centuries, acons past
Requiem of mankind
Withdrawn in darkness
Prepared to die
Awaiting silence
Anticipation sublime
A silent demise
Indignant by nature
A tragedy profound
When put to the test
Determination found
Horror within
Dissipates away
Falling to your knees
The time has come to pray... to pray
To have no faith... silent demise
Yet still believe
To have no faith... silent demise
But not deceived
To have no faith - yet still believe
To have no faith - but not deceived
To have no faith - in all the lies
To have no faith - now as we die
12. Lost Souls Domain
War to end all wars
Hatred lost control
Casualties now mounting
Tales yet still untold
Life's cradication
Of man now beyond all reason
Totally insane
Lest we forget - thoughts will always haunt the mind
Lest we forget - the bitterness remains
Past termination
Man made rationally
Complete elemination
Of life beyond brutality
Eternal resentment
Re-occurs time after time
Driven to despair
Extinction drawing near
Commence removal of all things valued in life
The persecution what was once believed right
Humanities objective now totally deranged
When ignorance transpires,
this world becomes insane
