1. Rooms of Sleep
Dreaming - hagridden through my fear
By the circe of awakening
Stranger - take away the dark and
Save me from insanity
In this place unknown
They seek for souls
From the shadow zone
They're crawling into rooms of sleep
Creatures - are haunting my domains
Seeds of hell in my paradise
Screaming - dreaming that I dream
That I'm awake in this evil dwell
I am awake but I only dream
That I'm awake in the dream within
In a place unknown
They seek for souls
Hear the demons call
When they're crawling into rooms of sleep
Into rooms of sleep
Drowning - in my bed of pain
Falling deeper and deeper down
Stranger - take away the dark and
Wake me up from insanity
I am awake but I only dream
That I'm awake in the dream within
In a place unknown
They seek for souls
Hear the demons call
When they're crawling into rooms of sleep
Into rooms of sleep
2. What Am I
In the darkness I see her shadow
As a lonely sad silhouette
I'm remorseful but my pride still
Is too strong to accept my regrets
I sit in silence crouched in a corner
I hear the hollow ticking of the clock
My mind is chasing thoughts that are fleeing
Oh god of mercy! Do I know what I have done
I rest my head in hands that tremble
I'm repressing thoughts of what I am
I am scared of the power of my feelings
I can't bear the burden of the deeds
I can't trust the nature of my being
Cause my hate is fiery and profound
Each passing minute feels like an eon
Time seems unreal in the presence of death
I'm spinning deeper into my madness
Clinging on to traces of hope
I rest my head in hands that are shaking
I'm denying the facts of what I am
I close my eyes but the scene I'm seeing
Keep's repeating again and again
I can't leash the fury I'm feeling
I cannot break the circle of my rage
I can't trust the nature of my being
'Cos my hate is fiery and profound
3. Alley of Oaks
Let's take a walk a sunny day
And find those hidden roads
Which goes to secret places
And to magic nooks
Can you hear the whisperings
From the trees
They're fortelling memories
Creatures you've never seen catch
The gossip from the sizzling leaves
When we walk the alley of the oaks
To where those diffuse shadows loom
Underneath that mound of stone
There lives the beings of your denial
Shadows, luring eyes behind trees and
boulders, oh world of wonders
Can you see, can you see them
They are here closer than you
Wanted them to ever come to you
But it's for real not a fairy-tale
When we walk the alley of the oaks
To where those diffuse shadows loom
Was there something behind me?
What did move over there?
Hear voices and laughter
It's something else here!
4. Soldiers of the Holy Empire
Look into the dragons eyes
In the mist of dark forgotten times
Summon up the beast of flame
Unchain the warlord call its name
Children of the sun
Let him reign the chosen one
And save you from the night
In which you fear to die
The dragon rule with iron hand
Through blood - he'll reposses the land
From the dungeon to the throne
From the darkness freedom has been born
Soldiers of the sun
Let him rule the chosen one
And save you from the night
In which you fear to die
Soldiers of the holy empire
Hail the dynasty - the dragons eyes forsees victory
Soldiers of the holy empire
Hail the dynasty - make the enemy crawl
Soldiers of the sun
Let him rule the raging one
Into dawning light
The time of fear will die
Soldiers of the holy empire
Hail the dynasty - the dragons eyes forsees victory
Soldiers of the holy empire
Hail the dynasty - make the enemy crawl
5. Paradise Lost
I am the lord of the fallen
The ultimate rebel from paradise
A philosopher free thinking breed
The sovereign of anarchy
Legionaries of every tribe
This is where we dwell
A place of eternal dusk
We are the dignitaries of hell
Here we shall rule
Even though it isn't hell
I will retake
My lost paradise
Into the garden of Eden
As a serpent I come to tempt
I offer you to taste the fruit
From the tree of knowledge
I make you a demigod
I give you my thoughts
I want to make sure that you will be
A rebellion to the trinity
Here we shall rule
Even though it isn't hell
I will retake
My lost paradise
Fallen into the abyss of fire
Fallen into the abyss of fire
6. Nowhere Island
I miss the evenings the small talk that we had
I miss your presence the good things and the bad
I smell the morning air the colours of the dawn
Things that matter now when it's out of reach
All the things I took for granted
I do now esteem
Every thing that I neglected
I wish to redeem
In this silence on nowhere island
I can see the life I had passing by
In the place of dying I'm weeping crying
Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies
In this nowhere I'm looking back on life
What was my vision in life before I died - I know
That this place of emptiness a castody for souls
Will not bring me back no one hear my calls
All the things I took for granted
I don now esteem
Every thing that I neglected
I wish to redeem
In this silence on nowhere island
I can see the life I had passing by
In the place of dying I'm weeping crying
Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies
My destination the cold eternity
I will forever roam through infinity
And I am doomed to silence in this astral skies
I want to be again I wish I were alive
All the things I took for granted
I do now esteem
Every thing that I neglected
I wish to redeem
In this silence on nowhere island
I can see the life I had passing by
In the place of dying I'm weeping crying
Too late to be forgiven for my sins and lies
7. The Mirror
What's beyond the chamber mirror
The evening coloured secret window
Is there just an inverted picture of
This room's reality
I have witnessed tiny little changes
Within that darkened reflected room
Things have altered seemingly in wrongful
Places of false dimensions
Hypnotised my soul is waiting
Horrified my senses fading
The mirror stares into my soul
Suspiciously I'm moving closer
And I wave my hand before me
In disbelief I watch the image of myself
Yet standing still
I'm staring deep into my eyes
Touch the mirror while I wonder why
In that moment my reflection grabs my arm
And pulls me through
To a room that is reversed
My common sense I feel it burst
The mirror takes what god forsakes
The mirror
Screaming - in silence
Staring out from the mirror
Reality - fades away
And I am locked beyond the mirror
Shadows - near me
Whisperings that scare me
Help me - take me out
Crush the mirror of despair
The mirror
8. State of Intoxication
You're nude just screwed
Your dick is in pain but you're in a good mood
With nothing in mind almost blind
Your pecker's a mess but you do feel fine
You're gucked you're sucked you've fucked
You're glued to the sheets like a piece of rock?
White stains on her behind
Fruits of the labour of the bump and grind
State of intoxication
I'm flying high on love
Make love no way
It's a physical act with no foreplay
Doin' the deeds that your boner needs
Drain your balls into the pussy you feed
You sweat you howl you growl
Fornicate her with your heart and soul
Dirty deeds done dirty sheets
A combination of sticky and sweet
State of intoxication
I'm flying high on love
Romance no chance
Extacy is like a woodoo dance
A fuck is an act not a shameful crime
It has been done since the dawn of time
What do we do? We screw!
Armadillos are doin' it too
A matter of course our source
Nature is an unstoppable force
State of intoxication
I'm flying high on love
9. Cold World
What a cold world we rule
Preparing for war to keep the peace intact
White lies, politics and dirt
Thrown in our eyes
And where do we stand
And what are we thinking of
When so much is wrong
Why do we not care
Segregation and hate
Opinions and words of the fools who seek to rule
Shaved heads, lunatics with flags
Marching the streets
Oh, where are we now
And what are we going to
Is the world so insane
Are we doomed to lose
I will speak my mind if I so want to
This cold world sucks have we all gone crazy
When religion decays
Bullshit will save the faith, praise the lord
Brainwash, talk in tongues to god
Who'll never appear
Where will we be
And what will the future hold
We're listening to fools
And play by their rules
I will speak my mind if I so want to
This cold world sucks have we all gone crazy
10. Lord of the Rings
Three rings for the elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for the mortal men doomed to die,
One for the dark lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie
One ring to rule them all one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie"
The lord of the rings
The one of them all
The lord of the rings
Gets into your soul
Three rings in the elven-land defying the dark
The dwarf-lords have lost their rings three have been found
By the mortal men now bearing Sauron's mark
The war of the ring begins on evil ground
In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie
One ring to rule them all one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the land of the dark lord where freedom dies
The lord of the rings
he one of them all
The lord of the rings
Gets into your soul
11. Last Rites
He lies awake with his eyes closed
As he thinks of eternity
The last meal served on silver plates
Left a taste of cold steel
His memories haunt him
Though what's past is so far away
He's drowning in fear of death
But does anyone give a damned
First light of the morning
Will witness his fall
At the end of a rope he'll hang
Feeding the crows
As he walks to the gallows pole
The priest reads his last rites
Twelve feet to the ground
Then there's just six more to god
First light of the morning
Will witness his fall
At the end of a rope he'll hang
Feeding the crows
From the end of the gallow
To the land of the dead
He has joined with the hallowed
In the land of the dead
From the end of the gallow
To the land of the dead
He has joined with the hallowed
In the land of the dead
From the end of the gallow
To the land of the dead
He has joined with the hallowed
In the land of the dead
12. Dying Evolution
In this time of desolation
In this time of apathy
In the age of desperation
We're dying to be free
I will live in hell until I die
I will crawl this earth of dust and fire
My dying expectations
My dying will to live
The plague of radiation
I have no more to give
I will live in hell until I die
I will crawl this earth of dust and fire
This barren desolated place
Where evolution dies in disgrace
Dying evolution
We hailed the war
That devastated earth
We're now before a
Dying evolution
In this time of desolation
In this time of apathy
In the age of desparation
We're dying to be free
I will live in hell until I die
I will crawl this earth of dust and fire
This barren desolated place
Where evolution dies in disgrace
Dying evolution
We hailed the war
That devastated earth
We're now before a
Dying evolution
13. The Secret Doctrine
In the secret doctrine I have read,
From the creation and its manifoldness has sprung
And that the hord of evil is not dead
And that armageddon already has begun
About forgotten places I have read,
And secret paths to heaven and hell
Names of angels, life and death
All that is mentioned clear and well,
In the secret doctrine of heaven and hell
