1. Walking Back to Hell
Worship the flame bow to the fire
Light the match and ignite the pyre
Take a knee for the lord of the flies
Give your soul to the father of lies
[chorus]
You made a deal and now you are mine
Your wounds will not heal through time
Promised me a soul that you would sell
Hand in hand we're walking back to hell
To the deciever you pledge your loyalty
To the fallen one the grand deity
In the night the ritual fires burn
Your deal is granted for your soul in return
I am your last shining light
the black candle thats burning in the night
When everything else has past
I am your golden calf.

2. Architect of Armageddon
If you want someone dead, I'm the man you need
I'll make no mistakes that's my gurantee
I'll bury the bodies under rubble and ash
Anything is possible if you've got the cash
[chorus]
If you're needing a demolition man
Tell me your ideas tell me your plans
And I'll be your Architect of Armageddon
I can build you whatever ya need
Do you want em dead, or just to bleed
I don’t care which side you’re on
Just gimme the cash and I’m gone
I will never do business face to face
But you know, I’m worth the money I’m paid
Our deal is done, but only in cash
The blood I spill will cover my tracks
[chorus]

3. Atmos-Fear
4. World of Hate
You're watching me but who is watching you
Feeding me lies while big brother turns the screws
One hand helps the system to get on track
While the other hand is stabbing me in the back
Now that your system has failed to succeed
There is simply nothing more that it can bleed
[chorus]
A slight of hand and carefully arranged words
A campaign of propaganda whatever works
You've got a perfect world that you want to create
That perfect world has turned to a world of hate
If you disagree then you will be killed
Anything to stop more oil from being spilled
Society is crashing and how will you protect us
Those streets of gold are turning to dust
You say we must launch our counter attack
Before they have the time to react
[chorus]
You promised us peace and brought us to war
Just as your father did once before
More propaganda that suits your needs
So long as big business doesn't bleed
It don't matter just how many will die
Cuz the numbers are so easy to deny

5. Controlled by Chaos
Skies filled with fire
The rivers run red
Fields piled high
With the bodies of the dead
The great river burns
It's your final grave
You're looking to the sky
Crying to be saved
[chorus]
All of our ways
Have been lost
We're all controlled
By chaos
Our lives/ It will cost
We're all controlled/ By Chaos
repeat
On through the night
The legions march
A path of destruction
And you are marked
Zyklon and mustard gas
Lights the night
Those that resist
They will die
Look to the figures
You follow so blind
Living on your knees
Only bought you time
Look to the new rule
It reigns supreme
The blood from war
Only blankets your scream

6. Bitter Reality
Caged and held till all desire is gone
That was your plan all along
Tied up and beaten by all of your views
No release until I become just like you
When I do something that you don't agree
You point it out to make an example of me
Take away freedoms til all that's left is hate
my mistakes your insults you rub in my face
[pre-chorus]
You can't control what goes through my mind
A clockwork orange that you'll never find
Beaten into submission to see your ways
Leaving my mind crippled no more to say
[chorus]
This is what is left of my bitter reality
Are you happy with what you've done to me
Conform or die a prisoner in this hell
Retreat back into my own little shell
Emotions freeze until all love is lost
Gotta get away no matter what it costs
Invited me in and now it's my prison
All hope that I had it is all gone
Can't change the things I feel in my heart
Rehabilitate me until I play a willing part

7. Halo of Flies
(acoustic part)
Now that I'm here, I feel the betrayal
On the path to death, the people I have failed
Death awaits on the hill among slaves and thieves
The people await the spectacle all on their knees
(repeat with heavy verse riff)
To take a nail for your mortal sins
The slain lamb awaits the crucifixion to begin
The captains last words "we welcome you to death
To rise again in three days the prophet said
[chours}
They believed my words to all be lies
They crowned my head with a halo of flies
repeat
Put me to death for what you don't believe
Try and persecute all who follow me
There will be plagues to fall on the Earth
To take the first born son right from birth

8. Dragon Head
Here they stand, One by one
A line of death, a prediction of life is done
The world you saved, ripples beneath your feet
The blood you’ve shed, runs through the street
[chorus]
From the abyss rises the dragon head
Upon it’s seven horns hangs your dead
There’s no prayers left for your dead
Now you’ll all bow to the dragon head
You waited for the rain, to jump on the arc
The prophet of sorrow, circling like sharks
Lead the mob, heed these words I say
You’ll hear the seven trumpets, of the angels play
Turned your back, on your god so long ago
Now they’ve dropped another fallen hero
Deny the truth, denounce your god and who you are
Now you wish for god to heal the devils mark

9. Kingdom of the Worm
You are what you said you'd never be
You've proven that you're no friend to me
I know you put me down to lift you up
Something in your head seems so fucked
It sucks hearing people defending you
Cuz what I say you know it's true
You have no friends left anymore
Not that you had any before
[chorus]
I trusted you and then I learned
You're a snake in the kingdom of the worm
You used me up and left me burned
You ate me alive in the Kingdom of the Worm
There is one thing that I hope to see
And that is payback for all of this misery
You deserve everything that you get
You say you're my friend well eat shit
There is a lesson that I hope you've learned
Dont' cross the bridges that you've burned
Sorry if I seem to be so blunt
But you've been a.. well you know what

10. Winter
Without warning or reason
Mushroom cloud changed the season
There is no air for us to breathe
The ones that lived they are diseased
[chorus]
Ash falls from the sky
And millions will die
Human life begins to splinter
And we prepare for a Nuclear Winter
We all hide as the planet melts
Far and wide the fallout is felt
All life disappears without a trace
A barren wasteland left in it's place
No way to stop it once it's begun
Either way no one has won
The cities that stood so tall and proud
Now cover bodies that litter the ground
