1. Hollow Minds
Hollow Minds
Text: & Musik: Jens Ekedahl
- Verse one -
Awaken, can´t remember my self
I´m too blind to see, have lost it all
My dreams have faded away
Long gone, I´m now back, what´s the sense of this
My hope is gone, my life is done
Why exist when there´s nothing to live for
Don´t lie no more, I can see you´re sore
You are just another thing to ignore
- Verse two -
Burn me, bury me, I don´t care
Take me to the infernal regions
Eternal suffering makes no difference
It can´t be much worse than this
- Verse three -
I can´t make no dreams come true
Though I believe in you
I can just make one come true
And that´s the one I carry
- Pre Chorus -
Devastated suffocation with no more than less to give
Within filled emptyness and missing remains we will live
- Chorus -
A world of hollow minds
In darkness I grow
Left the ancient peace behind
I´m lost among the blind
2. Enemy At The Gates
Enemy at the Gates
Text: Micke Jakobsson; Musik: Micke & Netherworld
- Verse one -
Vers1
The battle has begun
Into a place of fields
You're watching the soldiers
As they're running for the fight
- Pre Chorus -
You will see an end
Filled with pain
- Chorus -
Enemy at the gates
Will drive you into pain
Enemy at the gates
Is your fate
- Verse two -
Your mind is filled with rage
Take a rifle in your hand
Now you must shoot them down
And it'll be your destiny
3. Through The Dark Lands
Through the Dark Lands
Text: David Wallin; Musik: Micke Jakobsson & Netherworld
- Verse one -
My life has been given back to me
So I can set things straight
And save us from Berlious
- Verse two -
This threat has been dormant all along
Like a shadow over us
Just a legend through history
- Pre Chorus -
Through the dark lands
I must find my way
Through the dark lands
It's my destiny
- Verse three -
I'll search with moonlight as my guide
Through endless fields of war
And deliver us
- Chorus -
No matter the time, no matter the day
I'm ready to fight for you
All mankind depends on whether or not
I'll get that stone in time
And so it's up to me
To find the Diamond if Life
4. Soul In Disgrace
Soul in Disgrace
Text: David Wallin; Musik: David, Micke & Netherworld
- Verse one -
I, an ancient warrior
Have risen from a shallow grave
Awakened by the wizard's spell
The quest he's given me
To find that sacred stone of his
- Verse two -
"Rise, take heed and follow me
There are things out there that you must know of
Watch, the evil Berlious
He'll use the Diamond to rule the world
He's making haste as we speak
Now find that sacred stone before him"
- Chorus -
In a dream you can't escape
A soul in disgrace
On my knees for his grace
- Verse three -
I, was given a second chance
To prove I'm worthy of my name
Awakened by the wizard's spell
"The journey starts right here"
"Now find that sacred stone of mine"
5. Falling Into The Shadows
Falling Into the Shadows
Text: Micke Jakobsson; Musik: Micke & Netherworld
- Verse one -
With my fear of imagination
Believing in everything that I see
I don't know what to do
It's a struggle inside my mind
Lots of illusions
Everywhere I go
- Pre Chorus -
Take me away from this place where I am
Wake me up from this dream I can't escape
- Chorus -
I am falling
Falling into the shadows
I am falling
Falling into my dreams
- Verse two -
I will have to free my mind
I hope that it will be a better day
Trapped in my soul let me go
Set me free from this evil dream
Lots of illusions
Everywhere I go
- Pre Chorus -
Take me away from this place where I am
Breaking my chains, so I can fly away
- Chorus -
I am falling
Falling into the shadows
I am falling
Falling into eternity
6. War
War
Text: David Wallin; Musik: Jens Ekedahl
- Vers one -
I'm running through fields
And feeling the force
The taste of blood is in my mouth
My teeth are red
And they'll tear your flesh away
Feel the strength of my sword
Here the sound of breaking bones
As you're brought down
By my hand
And I'm swiftly moving on
This is war
- Verse two -
I was deceived
I made a mistake
I trusted a man with evil plans
His eyes turned black
And I couldn't see the truth
Now I search and I'll find
I will hunt that warlock down
As table turns
I'm your bane
And I'll crush you easily
- Chorus - x2
I'm in control
And feeling the stone
And I won't let you
Get away this time
Through endless fights
That stone is mine
And I won't let you
Get away
I'm in control
And feeling the stone
And I won't let you
Get away this time
Through endless fights
That stone is mine
Soon I'm close enough
You won't get away this time
7. Hollow Minds (live)
8. Beginnings
Beginnings
Text: David Wallin; Musik: David Wallin & Netherworld
- Verse one -
Through the mud, maggots call my name
Mother earth is speaking' to me
No last rites, unholy burial
And now there's nothing' stopping' these voices
Through the ashes comes the whispers
"Hear them whisper"
"Hear them whisper your name"
- Chorus -
"Now rise, take my hand"
"Let me guide you through the soil"
"Wake up from your tomb"
"Come do my deeds!"
- Verse two -
I was struck down, a mighty warlord of my time
It was hard for my people to replace me
200 years, and not that much has changed
Soon daylight shines
And orders being' handed out through whispers
Hear them whisper
Hear them whisper your name
9. Sleep
Sleep
Text: David Wallin; Musik: Jens Ekedahl
- Verse one -
The mighty warlock's face looks troubled
The last hope for mankind, extinct in a single blow
If only I hadn't been so easily fooled
Thought that lying man was filled with good intentions
The only time I ever saw him satisfied
Was while casting that final spell
No trace of humanity could be found in his expression
Disappeared quickly, left us scared and alone
- Pre Chorus -
We were caught by surprise
Now we're scared and alone
- Chorus -
I was only trying to do what's right
I never meant to 'cause him this much pain
I didn't get here fast enough
I don't think I fought the best I could
And so we're burying him today
As he is put to final sleep
Now the hearts of the world must weep
'Cause our destiny is sealed
- Verse two -
His eyelids won't open
They're close forever more
Now she's sitting beside him
Mournfully she cries
And this is all my fault
His blood is on my hands
And now it's up to me
To seek his revenge
- Pre Chorus -
We were caught by surprise
Now we're scared and alone
And his final words as he left us:
"My spirit still lives on"
10. The Final Battle
Final Battle
Text: David Wallin; Musik: Micke Jakobsson & Netherworld
- Verse one -
In the end, when there's no one to turn to
And all you have is your inner voice to rely on
You should've known better
Than trying to fool the forces of evil
Oh no, but you had to make sure
That there would never be another tomorrow
- Verse two -
In the end, there'll be no one to cry to
All your hopes of a new world shattered to pieces
