1. The Hunter
Twelve Times The Bell Doth Chimes
Thus Darkness Enshrouds All
Upon Misty Ground; A Biped Hound
By Moonlight Held In Thrall
Sulphur Eyes Reflects The Skies
As Lanterns Burning Twine
It's Cold Gaze Rapt Upon The Face
From Which Blood Doth Runs Like Wine
I Am Superior, The Perfection Of All Lowly Beasts
The Surpasser Of Humanity - Evolution As Complete
I Am A God-Made-Flesh, A Horror In Your Reality
Bestowed With Immortality - Immune To Life's Disease
Branded By The Silver Moon
To Take The Shape Of A Human Wolf
To Hunt You Down Like The Sheep You Are
Devour Your Flesh, Likewise Your Blood
Pale Light Falls Upon The Wooden Walls
Wherein The Sleeping Lies
Yet Unaware Of The Sinister Stare
Which Through The Window Spies
Handlike Paws Adorned With Claws
Strikes Through Glass So Frail
Thus Pleasant Dreams Ends, So It Seems
As Their Torn-Out Heart Doth Fail
The Snow Lies Tainted With Crimson Stains
From The Bodies Dragged Out Towards The Plains
Blizzard Winds Whips A Face Gone White
With Twisted Features Depicting Fright
Silence As The Wind In Your Breath
Escapes Through Your Wide open Throat
Extinguished Like A Solitary Candle
Left Out In The Midst, Of A Raging Storm
And Thus It Ends, This Dark Fairytale
As The Last Of Your Life Slowly Fades Away
Branded By The Silver Moon
To Take The Shape Of A Human Wolf
To Hunt You Down Like The Sheep You Are
Devour Your Flesh, Likewise Your Blood
I Am Superior, The Perfection Of All Lowly Beasts
The Surpasser Of Humanity - Evolution As Complete
I Am A God-Made-Flesh, A Horror In Your Reality
Bestowed With Immortality - Immune To Life's Disease
I Am Superior, The Perfection Of All Lowly Beasts
The Surpasser Of Humanity - Evolution As Complete
I Am A God-Made-Flesh, A Horror In Your Reality
Bestowed With Immortality - Immune To Life's Disease
2. Wolfman's Lullaby
The full moon rises with its eerie light
A sulphurous orb in the velvet night
A distant howl through the ether fly
Thus begins the wolfman's lullaby
So quiet the night doth seems
For most creatures lies profound in dreams
All so vulnerable in their homes they lay
So assured they will see the coming day
But in the shadows cast by towering trees
The incarnation of a mental disease
By day human, now in lupine guise
For the beast appears when the moon doth rise
And now the daylight ends
So let the hunting commence
Chorus 1:
On a narrow trail a lone man walks pale
Strange noises makes his heartbeats almost fail
For in the chilling dark is heard a growling bark
As feral eyes detects their numb-struck mark
Stepping into sight beneath the lunar light
The very essence of nocturnal fright
By fear frozen still deprived of mind and will
The human prey receives the coming kill
Silence returns to the forest trail
As the ravage corpse is of no avail
The biped wolf left in a haste
For tonight there is more blood to taste
A grotesque silhouette the moon displays
A muzzle sculpted upon a human face
Canine teeth like knives smeared with red
Adorns the jaws of the wolf-like head
A lonely cottage standing in a glade
The perfect target for this nocturnal raid
Housing mortals fallen in deep sleep
The ideal victims for a werewolf to reap
And now their lives ends
So let the bloodshed commence
Chorus 2:
In a bed there lies a woman with closed eyes
Unaware that she will meet with her demise
With the windpipe torn her last breath sounds forlorn
While yellow eyes surveys their work with scorn
Sleeping aside his wife the husband ends his life
Slain by teeth as sharp as the keenest knife
Now come the final hour for the child which cower
A dainty morsel for a hungry wolf to devour
Repeat 1:st chorus
3. Changeling Eve
Now dusk arrives and the day fades with the light
Thus time is nigh to flee the horrors of the night
For when the moon gone round, ascends to spread it's gaze
Any man may change his shape and assume more bestial ways
Ah the razor-like moonlight
How it sears my mind
The lunar spell cracks my mortal shell
Thus begins my subconscious dive
Chorus 1:
Out on a flowery field
A little girl walks lone it seems
Unaware of the stalking beast
Now coming out from the nearby trees
My oh my what do I see with my eye
A sweet and tender tasting human child
My oh my how I want her to die
Her very being drives my appetite wild
Down on the ground in a pool of red she lies
No pain distorts her face for swift was her demise
Devoid of all vital signs her empty eyes still stare
While through her flesh the werewolf's teeth do tear
Ah it's the eve of change
As insanity floods my brain
To hunt and kill becomes my single will
The sole purpose of the beast within
Chorus 2:
Out on a flowery field
One little girl lies dead it seems
She never saw the stalking beast
Now disappearing behind the trees
My oh my in the grass she now lie
The sweet and tender tasting human child
My oh my I had to make her die
Because her presence drove my bloodlust wild
Ah ha ha ha when the moon is round
Shaped as a wolf I will hunt you down
When dawn arrives I will change to deceive
Those who will die next changeling eve
Repeat chorus 2
4. Authors of Nightfear
Deep in the shadows hiding under the trees so tall
Behind rocks and bushes we wait for the night to fall
Ours are the eyes you see gleaming in the night
Pairs of sulphurous yellow illumined by the full-moon's light
We are the shapes you thought you saw coming from behind
Making you think the shadows are playing tricks with your mind
Bridge 1:
But this is all so very real
Just as the panic that you feel
For a pack of werewolves circles 'round
And you are their designated meal
Bridge 2:
Striking with lightning speed
From your head down to your feet you bleed
yet still alive on the ground you lie
as the vicious beasts begins to feed
Chorus:
With a wolf's skill and instinct
And man's intelligence we slay
Thus we are far more superior
Than those who embrace the day
What was that face you saw in the window staring right at you
The very image of a haunting nightmare apparently come true
We are the ghosting creatures in the corners of your eyes
Erected wolves on a midnight hunt bringing you a swift demise
You are all ours to take just like a flock of stupid sheep
Each night is harvest night, and your flesh is what we reap
Repeat 1:st bridge
So why should we hunt and feed upon the lower species' meat
When mankind's flesh does taste so sweet, and is taken with a greater ease
Repeat chorus:
Repeat 1:st verse
Repeat 2:nd bridge
You try to run but you cannot escape
for fear has locked you in a frozen state
Your legs are numb and your throat is dry
So all you can manage is a stifled cry
But no humans will hear you now
For the beasts are about to strike you down
With one slash your throat sprays red
In the instant you hit the ground you will be dead
5. The Forging of a Beast
I am looking through my window
It's still day outside
But very soon the lights will go
All the lights will go out
I can see my neighbors outside
They are all such fools
They think their lives are so safe
Ha, if they just knew
Chorus:
Oh, the moon, the wicked moon
Strike me with your gaze
Forge my flesh into a beast
A man with lupine face
Oh, the pain, the acid pain
Which burns me from within
Do consume my sanity
And let the change begin
Now!!!
In the outskirts of the village some little children play
They seem to have lost track of time, forgotten it's not day
If they still will be out there playing when the moon is round
I will have to devour them whole, ensuring no parts are found
Still I'm looking through my window
Waiting for the night
Waiting for the moon to rise
and soon it will be time
for all those who may be outside
when the night has fallen
To pray unto whichever gods
they might think will save them
Repeat chorus
And so it is time at last
I begin to change from man into wolf
Repeat chorus
Ah, my nails and my teeth
razor sharp to be
Dark gray fur bursts through my skin
Through yellow eyes I see
6. Clad in Wolven Shape
As the first rays of light from the full moon strikes
upon my eyes, my transformation is initialized
The catalyst I need to bring forth the dormant beast
Is the very same as those piercing lunar beams
Chorus 1:
So into the night with stealth I stride
Clad in wolven shape, but walking like a man
Bound to the light of the moon which is my bride
To hunt when darkness falls until the break of dawn
Outside my home I probe the midnight air
And inhale the scent of small human children
Unaware of my presence they still laugh and play
While I slip closer preparing to kill
Chorus 2:
Towards the little ones with stealth I stride
Clad in wolven shape I slay the spawn of man
The only witness is the moon, my nocturnal guide
Which surveys my deeds until the break of dawn
Aah those screams, those futile screams
So filled with pain and sweet despair
Cut off it seems by crimson streams
And silence fills again the air
Repeat 1:st chorus
7. The Coming of Dawn
Through the centuries
Ever since the birth of mankind
I've lived beside them during the day
Then hunted for their flesh by night
In my true form
A ravenous fiend in a werewolf's shape
sinister in mind
I am the scourge of humankind
Time grows short
For very soon the dawn will come
and with it my nocturnal form
will again hide beneath my skin
leaving a beguiling shell
sculpted in the image of a man
And thus disguised
I walk amongst my ignorant victims
Chorus:
I am the one of whom they speak
In deadly fear of falling asleep
Come the night all children weep
For their flesh is mine to take
to ease my bloodlust and hunger sate
They unaware in beds doth lay
of me choosing them as prey
Yes their lives are mine to take
as death is theirs to anticipate
For little children whom of mercy pray
The coming of dawn will seem so far away
Repeat chorus
And as the morning disperse of the night
Butchered children are revealed by it's light
Repeat 1:st verse
Repeat chorus
Come the night all children weep
For the light of dawn to come
For the ravenous werewolf to be gone
For they know that death do come to all
Who receives a visitor past nightfall
8. Lycanthropic Siege
A Cold Autumn Breeze
Through the Desolate Town Doth Sweeps
The Moon Is Full, It?s Past Nightfall
Deserted Seems the Streets
But Things Aren?t What They Seem
The Shadows in the Alleys Come Alive
As Most Mortals Lie and Dream
Howlings Pierce the Air
A Signal to Man to Flee in Despair
Doors and Windows are Locked and Barred
Fear Reigns This Werewolf Lair
So Hide Beneath your Beds
To Venture out when Twilight Falls
Will Deprive you of your Heads
The Light of Day Is Long Past Gone
It Went Away with the setting sun
Now Mortal Man Flee the Night with Fear
Knowing That Dusk Makes the Beasts Appear
The Streets of Giefswald Has Been Seized
By the City?s Lycanthropic Population Unleashed
Clotted Blood Taints the Gutters Red
Reminding All Humans That They?re Next to Be Dead
Caught Amongst His Flight
One Man?s Still Out Even Though it?s Night
Escaping the beasts Seems A Futile Act
As He Falls to their Delight
Now Helpless On the Ground
With One Final Scream He?s Torn Apart
As the Werewolves Flocks Around
Upon His Flesh They Feed
Devouring All With Insatiable Greed
Relentlessly They Deal Out Death
With Inhuman Speed
When Dawn Anounce the Day
The City?s Streets Are Found Adorned
With A Grisly Disarray
Daylight Ends As Night Descends To Cloak the Streets In Black
A Nocturnal Veil Where Beasts Assail All Those Who Sense Doth Lack
