1. Time Will Destroy
Death, the threatening black
Has won a space in our hearts
By the law of infinite fear
It kills beauty and joy
It shouldn’t but it does when we let in
In the depths of our souls we confess the sin
Yes… no…
No, the denial of what is lost
Yes, when you value the cost
Time will destroy
To the grasp of breath
Darkened and grey
The wrinkled hands betray
Time of pleasure
For scorn and deceived
Who were forced to their knees
Pleasure when souls are released
Where the world end... the world begins
When all battles swallowing fire
Repeats its place upon earth anger
Fury burning desire
It makes you worthy of pain
Hatred… hatred…
Life… death…
It is when you try to drown your soul
That she sparkles the most
Time of pleasure
For scorn and deceived
Who were forced to their knees
Pleasure when souls are released
Listen to the sound
They call from beyond
Our souls leave the ground
The unknown has begun
To reveal its secrets
Soon we will see
Realise mortality
In the depths of infinity
March down the line of existence
One by one into the depths we fall
Even when we see our lives expire
March, march, march down the line of existence
If you dare to break the silence
If you speak your name aloud
If your standard bows against the winds
You will be swallowed by the crowd
Hatred… hatred
White… black…
Which is mirror to your own deep down
Which is worn as disguise
Time will destroy
To the grasp of breath
Darkened and grey
Time of pleasure
For scorn and deceived
Who were forced to their knees
Pleasure when souls are released
Where the world ends… silence begins
2. Day-break
The day has passed like nothing’s done
The sleepwalk of the awake, nothing’s wrong
I see things happening right in front of me
I live to see, I live to taste
The waste of things you break
Like nothing’s wrong
I can always find you, we are not equal you see
I can always find you where ever you may be
Because I want to touch you
Caress your twisted mind
To take you through the dark forest
Trees whisper of wiser generations
Listen to the silence
Don’t ride failure or success
Ride the storms that rush in your head
The flames from your darkened eyes
I want to touch you
Caress your twisted mind
Leather you stretch on your face
Shows the feeling you have inside
Don’t get me wrong, leather is nice and smooth
But it will crumble in time, not in time
Too late
Like nothing’s wrong
I can always find you, we are not equal you see
I can always find you where ever you may be
Because I want to touch you
Caress your twisted mind
To take you through the dark forest
Trees whisper of wiser generations
3. Stranded
An old man at the shore of his life
In desperation and fear he lies
The truth he has tried to conceal
In his mind… before his flesh will part
He was caught in the web of temptation
That norns had woven for him
He had chosen the faddish path of violence
And sacrifice… for ancient gods belief
He was one of the proud
He was violence unleashed
Bend to his will of power
Or join the hordes of deceased
Now he pities himself for his doings
Told by Christ that his motive were wrong
How come he had tread the evil path
While he felt his willpower strong
At the centre of conscience
My fear stares at me
White rimmed eyes, ceremonial mask
No human face, what I see
Stranded
I pay homage to the tower of flesh
While my spirit roams free
He was one of the proud
He was violence unleashed
Bend to his will of power
Or join the hordes of deceased
Enter now the kingdom of Nastrond
Where the strand of corpses lie
Enlaced to the boundaries of hope
In eternity captured souls cry
He was one of the proud
He was violence unleashed
Bend to his will of power
Or join the hordes of deceased
When the powers of existence
Gazed furious in me
White rimmed eyes, ceremonial mask
I fear the shape… that I see
Stranded
True repentance when your soul dies
With all manner of those who died in bed
He was one of the proud
He was violence unleashed
Bend to his will of power
Or join the hordes of deceased
