1. Cenotaph
Cenotaph
Alone you stand - The final parody
Destined to silence - A memorial to mortality
Carved in stone - A tribute to the dead
For nameless victims - Whose litany is unread
Never forgotten - Wars memory lingers on
A dark reminder - To mankind's oblivion
This solemn image - Constructed with resolution
A monument - To wars terminal conclusion
Cenotaph
2. Destructive Infinity
Destructive Infinity
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 agonising pain
Killing for pleasure, only the strong shall remain
An arising slaughter, as hatred and terror now reigns
Destructive - The world now ripped apart
Infinity - A never ending fear
Destructive infinity
3. Prophet Of Hatred
Constructed with vengeful hate
The extinction of life, man's final plight
We strive until the end
Though none shall be taken alive
A killing machine, programmed for death
To destroy all that comes within his sight
Mindless, created insane
Mankind shall never survive
Never survive
Strength becoming weaker, as fear grows within
Faced with eternal damnation, the end shall now begin
Profane creation, the dawn of a new age
Technology's progression, over man machines reign
Enslaved without compassion, new masters of the earth we dwell
Human life is worthless, in this automated living hell
In the quest for perfection, life becomes obsolete
Humanity faces deletion, this nightmare world is complete
As we wait for execution, in silence we stand in line
The total extinction of the existence of mankind
Our futile life's now ended, free from the suffering and pain
Our systems now are loaded, we have been created profane
Profane creation, the dawn of a new age
Technology's progression, over man machines reign
Enslaved without compassion, new masters of the earth we dwell
Human life is worthless, in this automated living hell
In the quest for perfection, life becomes obsolete
Humanity faces deletion, this nightmare world is complete
As we wait for execution, silent we stand in line
The total extinction of the existence of mankind
4. Realm Of Chaos (live)
Realm Of Chaos (Live)
Enter the realm of Chaos, your nightmare has just begun
You may wake up screaming, but there's no place left to run
The ancient prophecy of dominant supremacy
Find strength through your salvation, the need for domination
Past life you deplore, present life abhor
Future life is so unreal, intense despair now you feel
Mutated creatures round you stare, at your limbs they all tear
It's too late now to say a prayer, for your Gods have no care
Welcome incursions of Chaos, you know you cannot resist
To serve, worship, obey them - Is the only way to exist
Your foretold destiny of perpetual lunacy
The final requisition, is no longer your decision
The obscure depravity blinds you, now you cannot see
What they've made of your world as your blood is turning cold
Now it's time to pay your price - The ultimate sacrifice
Gasp at your final breath - Cleansed now in your death
Your death
5. Spearhead (extended remix)
Spearhead
(Extended Remix)
Spearheads
Spearhead - Pierces through you
Fear numbs my mind, persecutes you
Spearhead - Marching onwards
Take my soul, sacrificial offering
Your initial strike taken by surprise
Now left alone, condemned by my pride
Drained of all emotion - Body now an empty shell
There's nothing left - You've taken all away
Adrenaline flows
Now filled with anger
Just what will be the outcome
Mass confusion tears my mind
Spearhead - No victory sublime
Another fallen victim - I will not beg to you
Spearhead - To which I cannot hold
With clear perceptions my destiny unfolds
I look to the reflection, fail to recognise what's seen
A figure clothed in hatred, I pray that this cannot be
Faced by this total stranger - Aware of your creation
No vision of your former self - Controlled by your instructi-
ons
Onward you advance, left in a mindless trance
Hypnotised by your will, desire is now instilled
Now staring face to face, your eyes filled with hate
Held by your contempt, both by weakness and by strength
Adrenaline flows
Now filled with anger
Just what will be the outcome
Mass confusion tears my mind
My mind
Tears my mind
Spearhead
6. Crown Of Life
Crown Of Life
Rising - From mundane existence
A new world - Seen through your eyes
To deception - Give no resistance
All your hopes and dreams are now sanctified
Blind to the hypocrisy
Goodness is all that you see
Your past life - Is cast aside
In false truths - You now confide
Pledged to a life of divinity
Superior through your own piety
Holier than thou - Alone you wear the crown
In your private asylum
Look to what you have become
Condemned to misery and strive
Alone you wear the crown of life
The crown of life
The crown of life
7. Dying Creed
Dying Creed
Fallen are the people of a decaying race
Now proclaim the legacy inherited too late - Too late
Mankind - The dying creed, reared on ignorance and greed
On suffering we feed, devouring all beyond our needs
A path of self-destruction they cannot see
Regarding their only interest in profitability - They cannot see
Open up your mind before it's too late
Unlock the chains of confinement that we create
Grasping all you can - Overloaded capacity
Nothing can conceal instinctive rapacity
A movement to disaster could this be the final plan
Blinded by our avarice the closing chapter, extinction of man
Mankind - The dying creed, reared on ignorance and greed
On suffering we feed devouring all beyond our needs
8. Lament
Lament
The time has come to leave this place - Never to return
Nothing's left but ashes - My body now is spurned
Your sorrow will subside in time - My one, true, only friend
There is one thing we can do - To avert this bitter end
Up amongst the stars I dwell - Tranquility is found
I look upon the earth - To which all human life is bound
Alone I wander aimlessly - For now my spirit's free
My soul exists within you as I guide your destiny
The tears of grief you weep for me - Through uncontrolled emotion
You have given me your all - A life time of devotion
So come my friend take my hand - Together we shall see
The pathways through the darkness - For all eternity
9. World Eater '94
As silence roars through gathered masses
You stared waiting eagerly
Approaching darkness decreasing your life expectancy
The tension is now rising
The calm before the storm
See your life flash before you
Will you live to see the dawn?
The enemy is now approaching
With bloodlust in their eyes
Intense fear is overcoming
For now death - you will defy
As the battle raged all dead and wounded
Bodies, carnage all you see
The white hot blast - melting flesh
The screaming pain in agony
You stand alone
The final parody
As you realise - your mortality
For you cannot change your destiny
To die at the hands - of the unknown enemy
Your death - you can't deter
As the silence - returns
World-eater
10. Overlord
Holocaust, nuclear Annihilation
Final blow, life eradication
Night turns to day, a blinding flash
Total deafness from the blast
No warning, no time
Split second, no chance of escape
Confusion of mind
Panic sets in, uncontrollable state
Crimson clouds melt the skies
Acid rain, slaying storm
Massacre lifeforms destruction born
Radioactivity
Total possession of the atmosphere
Oxygen capacity
Extiction is drawing near
Hide from the air nobody breathes
Eyes see pain, body bleeds
Poisonous gas, chokes your breath
Active fallout, burning flesh
Asphyxiation
Gasping for air, suffering you lay
Slow suffocation
Torment as time slips away
Survival craves in the minds that live
Hunger to take, no more to give
Living dead, parasites feed
Contaminations, mutations breed
Disease takes it's toll
Wiping out thousands each day
Infection controls
Pray for death as the living decay
Toxic chemicals, pollution stays
Terminal madnss seeks it's prey
Life takes life, mass genocide
Desolate void opens wide
Mass suicides
Ending it all tho ease the pain
Fear rots inside
Suffering now drives you insane
