1. Misanthropy
Darkness falls - On your brain
Hear the call - Go insane
Your mind changes - Slowly but surely
Stalk in trance - Scream in fury
Hatred fills your tortured soul
Agression creeps into your body
Now you'll reach your only goal
Hatred fills yout tortured soul
Agression creeps into your body
Now you'll reach your only goal
Misanthropy
The human race is meaningless
There's no place for them in your world
Frantic thoughts confuse your view
You drank of the evil source - All must be new
Darkness falls
On your brain
Hear the call
Go insane
(Repat 1st verse)
Now it's time for you to die!
Misanthrope
2. Protector of Death
At the gate of hell he guards
Welcomes with a look so hard
His duty is to let you in
But not out, pay for your sins
When you're lying in your grave
He sees you coming, a future slave
Belial is his only master
The one who brings the dark disaster
No one escapes from this place
The place of pain and of disgrace
His smile invites you to come near
And then you'll enter a dimension of fear
Forever he'll protect the evil
Stands on his post day and night
When the world is under Satan's darkness
He'll laugh again at the gods of light
(Repeat first verse)
Protector of death!
3. Tantalus
Tantalus son of Zeus
Wellwisher of immortal gods
Tried to exceed their imense wisdom
Invited them to an evil supper
Served his guests the slaughtered son
They recognized the malicious plan
Now - He's condemned to a life in
Hell - Got no chance to appeal for
Grace - Live and suffer forever in
Pain - To atone his stupid crime
Tortured with inhuman hunger
Feel the agony of starvation
Beeing alone with ripping spasms
Tantalus torment
You can't escape
Cruelest kind of torture
You will never die
Imprisoned by the flowing stream
Afraid inside to die of thirst
See the drink you cannot reach
Now - Suffer in
Hell - Without
Grace - Feel the
Pain - For your crime
Tantalus torment
You can't escape
Cruelest kind of torture
You will never die
Growing fear destroys the mind
Feel the boulder above the head
Thoughts go fast please make me dead
Now - He's condemned to live in
Hell - Got no chance to appeal for
Grace - Live and suffer forever in
Pain - To atone his stupid crime
4. Mental Malaria
Mental Malaraia (x 2)
Body functions are slown down
Machines delay awareness
Their engineers don't figured out
To slow down your nightmares
The only cure is good sound sleep
And that just feeds the infection
You can't wake up in deep sleep
The machines obey their instruction
Mental Malaria
Dreadful pictures in your head
Through the dark you'll drive
Wake up fast before the dead
Machines rule your life
Dreams reflect experience
Running down this horror scene
Try to understand the sense
No one hears your fearful scream
Mental Malaria
Nightmares are a chronically recurring disease
Horror figures - bad emotions burried in debrise
(Repeat first verse)
Mental Malaria (x 2)
Dreams reflect experience
Running down this horror scene
Try to understand the sense
No one hears your fearful scream
Sneaking when you're unprepared
Never try to dream again
Feel the things that make you scared
You'll survive when this dream ends
Mental Malaria (x 2)
5. A Shedding of Skin
Born into a world of sickness and hate
Ruined by the feelings of guilt and disgrace
Tortured through our wretched lives
Praying for our sacrifice
Screaming til we go insane
Shrouded in the grip of pain
Hoping for a lifetime that can't be obtained
In a world that teaches nothing but pain
(Repeat second verse)
A point of life for the shedding of skin
Strip away the garments of sin
We loose our flesh now our souls can win
Standing naked our lives begin
(Chorus)
A Shedding of skin (Repeat 3 times)
Through the pain we're forced to take
The outer shell begins to break
And in death our spirits rise
A new beginning to our lives
Dripping blood we're eaten by our leprosy
The jungle destroys us with evil we can't see
(Repeat fifth verse)
6. Lost Properties
Shadows move back to the ground
The sun begins to show
Lay to rest, when it is light
The day it makes them go
Gates of hell are open wide
Resits the savage dead
We are safe at least for now
Recuperate what's left
(Chorus)
Forgotten times before
Fighting an inner war
Living for the future
Today we'll pretend
Empty houses on the hill
Proprietors unknown
Without licence we move in
Take it as our home
In this sick society
Citizens get sick
Fight against reality
With every kind of trick
(Repeat Chorus)
Burning down the walls
The rebellion force
All across the land
Fight in selfdefense
We will make the worse times better
We write down new laws
That help us living together
No one can ignore
You teach children harmony
And to use elbows
In this sick society
Only strong kids grow
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat first verse)
(Repeat Chorus)
7. The Mercenary
Acid blood in the veins
Glaring into a dark future
With hate burning in his mind
And the pleasure of watching you peg out
It's totally in vain
To lick his dirty boots
And ask him for mercy
Because he loves to kill
(Chorus)
Mercyless mercenary
Brings you pain and crushes your face
Banishes your soul into eternal fire
A dark and wicked place
Satan's servant - His mind is void
Follows blind - One of a thousand men
Satan's servant - His mind is void
Follows blind - One of a thousand men
Mercyless mercenary
Brings you pain and crushes your face
Banishes your soul into eternal fire
A dark and wicked place
Once he was an ordinary soldier
With honour and a normal pay
But the greed for gold and money
Made him sign the parchment of no return
(Repeat 1st verse)
(Repeat chorus)
8. Golem
Concentraited powers - mystical formulas
Seven burning candles - hexagonal star
An old and yellowed parchment - full of words and numbers
Limbs of dead material - start to move unsure
A mongolic face - muscles filled with life
A servant to the rabbi - immortality
(Chorus)
Golem Humunculus
Golem Eternal life
Golem Unpredictable
Golem Obedient
Jewish myth - a friend
An old tale - a protector
But sometimes - agressive
Myth? Truth? Who knows?
He's working hard - not resting
But a berserk's inside him
Powerfull appearance
But his eyes spread coldness
Myth? Truth? Who knows?
Feelings are not extant, weakness of the mortal
Golem doesn't care about human foolishness
(Repeat Chorus)
9. Kain and Abel
The mace dropped and crushed Abel's head
He died fast and got lost amongst the dead
Kain laughed loud: "I rule over sin!"
God asked him: "Where is Abel, Kain?"
(Repeat 1st verse)
Kain shook his head, "He deserved what he got!"
The blood on his hands, it was still hot
(Repeat the foregoing verse)
He laughed again and scornfull said to the creator:
"I am good, but Abel was a bloody traitor!"
God burned a sign into Kain's brow
He smiled and his voice was hollow
Kain raised his fist against heaven
"My number is 666, not 777!"
God had failed with his friendlyness
While Kain held a black mass
Kain was banned and spat on his brother's grave
God's nasty love - Noone wats to be his slave
On his way to Nod, Kain burned churches - Hanged the priests
He screamed out: "I'm a servant to the Beast!"
(Repeat the foregoing verse)
Now Kain's heritage lives on forever
God despairs, Kain was much too clever
God realizes that his reign is over
So he turns his back to the world and it collapses in fire and blood
10. Doomed to Failure
Future formed by will of man
Nothing like a word "godgiven"
Everything that's said and done
Can cause deadly chain-reaction
Future in the hand of few
Hands of a "divine" minority
Their own interests, that's their game
And you're nothing but a name
Doomed to failure - Walking blind
Doomed to chaos - Stop to think
Doomed to death - till the last breath
The world is dying, screams for help
Poisoned, raped and violated
We can stop the murderous game
You know you're more than just a name
The people sleep, they don't care
But the future's made today
You and me, we are the pilots
fasten your seatbelts, we take of!
Doomed to failure - Just say "No"
Doomed to chaos - Start to care
Doomed to ruin - Open your eyes
Doomed to death - It's not too late!
(Repeat second verse)
11. The Heritage
Devastation / Consolation
In a time where grass is grey
Where trees can't clean the air
Toxic gas is what we breathe
No escape from this disease
Winds rising into shrieks
Noises piercing in the air
Glaring flashlight on the street
Hear the dying people blare
Clouds of dust
Run away and hide
What has happened
You're afraid inside
This inferno
Erases mankind
Those who died
Escape wars of mind
Starvation / Consolation
Those who said
Let's make war not peace
Lost their life
Falling on their knees
They die young
Leave this life behind
R.I.P.
Is what they'll find
Evisceration / Consolation
Your mouth so paralized with fear
You dare not to speak
Your eyes so blind and hypnotised
You cannot weep
The heritage of a golden age
(Repeat first verse)
Devastation / Consolation
(Repeat second verse)
Starvation / Consolation
12. Humanized Leviathan
Birth through death of mankind
The dogs of war are free
A life in thoughts and wishes
Is now reality
A future century master
The burnt magicians prophecy
Ears are closed to wisdom
But soon they'll hear tomorrows screams
Eternal subjugation
Murderous theory
Chemical suffocation
Millenium agony
Rules the world with fire
A throne of skulls and bones
The octagon is burning
Over ruins and dust
No way back to freedom
The downfall of humanity
The truth is faced with fear
A reign that'll last eternally
(Repeat second verse)
Opprobrium - Forcible
Humanized Leviathan - Leviathan Humanized
Intolerable - Ubiquity
Humanized Leviathan - Leviathan Humanized
Children born as slaves
A life deep down in caves
Forever lost in the dark
Still waiting for Noah's Ark
(Repeat foregoing verse)
(Repeat third verse)
(Repeat second verse)
13. Germanophobe
The mankind always look for scapegoats
And we germans fit very good for that
Well our history is full of blood
But look at the history of other countries
No blood? No war? No killings? I don't see that!
Aggression, violence, invasions everewhere!
Corpses, ruins, killing - the world bleeds
Opression? A leader? Warplans? In our land?
Freedom? Justice? Equality is what counts!
Please learn now, or believe what you want!
Disgusting smiles, defame - oh, so nice
If you don't know better? Please, shut up!
I am so damned sick of it! Wouldn't you be too?
You call us nazis - and Führer's slaves
But we're no nazis - We're no fascists
We're germans - We're humans like you!
Let's free the earth from dictators
History the signpost of the future
Genocide, murder, rasism - stop it!!!
Terror, injustice, fear must leave our planet
Let us build a new, better world
Nobody shall ever suffer again!
Never again!!!
14. Holocaust
Squirting mud and exploding tanks
Corpses strewn over a loamy field
Screaming wounded - Streams of blood
Guts, eyes, teeth trampled into the dust
Dirty holes full of greedy rats
Trenches filled with water and ammunition
Woodcrosses with illegible names
Bare-dead trees, waiting ravens
Ripped - Torn
Mutilated bodies
Mud - Shit
Cover the battlefield
Steel helmets
In the barbed wire
Fog - Rain
Endless nightmare
Minutes like hours - Awaiting the end
Deadly silence - Silence before storm
Covered soldiers - Bearing the mark of death
Like a tornado the fight breaks loose
Hundreds of warriorrs in a big assault
Man against man, mercyless slaughter
Who survives wishes he was dead
Bloody bajonetts on broken rifles
Enerved doctors operating without a rest
Innocent women and children dying for nothing
Years are gone since the last battle
Veterans - Old, sitting in wheelchairs
Eyes that say so many words
But the lips are closed
Still the landscape is marked by the war
Old cannons - Big holes in the ground
Burned-out bunkers rotting trees
A flower growing through a rusty helmet
Millions of crosses
Over the whole world
Countless witnesses
To a senseless war
Silent crying
To the government
Just a word:
"WHY?"
15. Convicts on the Street
Terror daily seen on the screen
Emotions lost - Is it real or a dream
Neurosis drives the man insane
Sickness that we cannot blame
We are not entagled in
To think about it makes us no sin
Unknown victims that were killed
They don't need our full compassion
Hear screams out in the night
It must be another gun-fight
Been alone on the street again
On 5th Ave. there are standing three men
One man said:"How is your trip?"
From now on I am in their grip
It's too hard for me to say "No!"
So I said: "Come on! Let's go!"
Hear screams out in the night
It must be another gun-fight
Feeling like a ship on the stream
Sitting at home, what's happened on screen
On channel "3" is a fight with a killer "T"
Who survives lives for 20 hours free
Convicts on the street (x 4)
Shoot by driving is the game that they play
Later that day I remember I was far away
The criminal movements shown on TV
This sad affair means nothing to me
(Repeat first verse)
Hear screams out in the night
It must be another gun-fight
Shoot by driving is the game that they play
Later that day I remember I was far away
The criminal movements shown on TV
This sad affair means nothing to me
16. Palpitation
