1. Carnival of Nightmares (Intro)
2. The Vampire Slayer II
This song is from two perspectives, * represents a narrative type of person, + represents the vampire slayer
--------------------------------------------------------------
* The one, cloaked in shadows
* Only time knows his name
* Forever bound, to roam in the dark
* Protected, by, the vampire's fang
* Holy water burns evil away..
* You will find what you're looking for..
* Immortals are slayed in the Slough of Despair
* Vanquish the evil that resided there
* In the bog of the Damned, the darkness now moves
* Laurels will hide, but the dead will still loam
+ The odor of Death, eminates
* Rest here for awhile, in the cloak of Shadows
* Away from the eyes of the dead
* In search of the one they call Vlad..
+ I impale his, unholy kindred
* More blood shed, he's taken there lives
* Burst into flames, your ashes a sacrifice
* Live forever, yet die by the stake
* To blink an eye, your final mistake
+ I have killed in the name, of my father
+ Through his heart, I kill and rend
+ I have fought my way, through the shadows
+ To find, they never end
+ The banshees call, but they remain unseen
+ Lure the demons, so they can feed
+ Without a sound, I slay Bretherend
+ Beneath pale skin, you are dead
+* With the blood of the damned, upon my hands
+* Peer into your, cold, dead eyes
+* Upon the ground, your body lies limp
+* Realise, i've taken your life away
* With the blood of the damned, upon his hands
* Peer into your, meloncholic eyes
* Upon the ground, from skin to flame
* Back to death, from whense you came
* Forget the lessons you have learned..
* Leave no shrub nor village unturned..
* To an eternal hell, you are bound..
+ Through the legions of Death, I have found
+ Eternal life through, eternal pain
+ I have shed my blood, by blade
+ The shadows call, my, name
+ A full moon.. The wind blows..
+ Demons will roam, in the darkened beloes
+ Upon my skin, puncture my throat
+ Frog's breath and wyrm's wart, a temporary antidote
+* With the blood of the damned, upon my hands
+* Peer into your, cold dead eyes
+* Upon the ground, your body lies limp
+* Realise, i've taken your life away
+* With the blood of the damned, upon my hands
+* Peer into your, cold dead eyes
+* Upon the ground, your body lies limp
+* Realise, i've taken your life away
3. Shredded
1, 2, 3, 4
(Shredded..)
Bound a morbid, opaque, black
I close my eyes and take a breath
To relieve the pain, I seperate
With a metalic kiss, upon my skin
Open my mind to a subtle pain
Through suicide, another failed attempt
I have stained my skin with blood
Meloncholy, the sorrow runs down and fades away
Severed..
To bleed..
Severed..
Forever
Seperated, I let my mind drift away
Seperated, I cut to relieve the pain
Shredded, i've mutilated again
Shredded, from my soul, upon my skin
Seperated, I let my mind drift away
Seperated, I cut to relieve the pain
Shredded, i've mutilated again
Shredded, from my soul, upon my skin
(Shredded..)
Feel it, crawling down the flesh
Inflicting pain, to relieve the stress
There is nothing left, except thin flaws
No more reason to be at all
Dripping down, i've stained my clothes
Crimson infliction, dark red rose
Look in the mirror, at what i've done
Open flesh, i've become undone
Severed..
To bleed..
Severed..
Forever
Seperated, I let my mind drift away
Seperated, I cut to relieve the pain
Shredded, i've mutilated again
Shredded, from my soul, upon my skin
Seperated, I let my mind drift away
Seperated, I cut to relieve the pain
Shredded, i've mutilated again
Shredded, from my soul, upon my skin
(break down/acoustic riff)
Waiting.. for things to..
Change, an ending
It'll never, get better
I've lost all hope in you coming back
Regret, fill my mind
With.. horrible things
Because I still love you
Physical pain numbs my heart
Suicide.. Taken away..
Tonight.. Planned out..
Remember.. But never again..
Suicide.. Taken away..
Forever
4. Memories
Memories of her, still in my mind
Memories of her, I recall from time to time
Memories of her, taking her life from me
Suicide, why not me? I had mine planned out already
I'd give anything to bring you back
It seems like only three days have passed
Since I could last feel her embrace
But in reality a few years have gone by
Thoughts too painful but I must know why
I remember the way your body was lying
Your beautiful form, distorted and broken
I keep a chest full of broken hope
Containing all the memories we shared
I cherish this last look into your eyes
If merely through a picture
I remember the way your body was lying
Your beautiful skin, mutilated and broken
I remember the way your body was lying
So frail, and helpless upon the floor
I, looked, into your eyes
But you weren't, living anymore
I remember the way your body was lying
So frail, and helpless upon the floor
I, looked, into your eyes
But you weren't, living anymore
But i'd give anything to bring you back
So pale so pure I could never forget
Things from our past, but never again
Because of yourself, you're down, you're blue
But no matter what has happened I still love you
I remember the way your body was lying
Your beautiful form, distorted and broken
There has never been an answer
Nor a note, for me to read
I never even got to say goodbye
Why not me? I have mine planned out already
I remember the way your body was lying
Your beautiful skin, mutilated and broken
I remember the way your body was lying
So frail, and helpless upon the floor
I, looked, into your eyes
But you weren't, living anymore
I remember the way your body was lying
So frail, and helpless upon the floor
I, looked, into your eyes
But you weren't, living anymore
Memories of her, still in my mind
Memories of her, I recall from time to time
Memories of her, taking her life from me
Suicide, why not me? I had mine planned out already
5. Beyond Dead
You're dead..
(Beyond Dead) - 8x
Have you ever felt it? (beyond dead)
I feel Death, consuming me (beyond dead)
Everything sprawled in black (beyond dead)
Though I never ment for it to be this way (Beyond Dead)
To, fill the void (beyond dead)
Perhaps shade black, to grey (beyond dead)
Smoke, crumbles when crushed (beyond dead)
But that only provides two or three (Beyond Dead)
BE-YOND-DEAD (beyond dead)
BE-YOND-DEAD (beyond dead)
BE-YOND-DEAD (beyond dead)
FAR-BE-YOND-DEAD (Beyond Dead)
Through, flesh and blood (beyond dead)
I offered my soul (beyond dead)
But, in return (beyond dead)
I got nothing (Beyond Dead)
(Beyond Dead) - 8x
Everything seems so cold (beyond dead)
Through a static scream (beyond dead)
That no one will ever hear (beyond dead)
I bide the time away (Beyond Dead)
Have you ever felt it? (beyond dead)
The chill of your own death (beyond dead)
Thoughts of closing the gate (beyond dead)
Pushed to the back of my head (Beyond Dead)
BE-YOND-DEAD (beyond dead)
BE-YOND-DEAD (beyond dead)
BE-YOND-DEAD (beyond dead)
FAR-BE-YOND-DEAD (Beyond Dead)
Through, flesh and blood (beyond dead)
I offered my soul (beyond dead)
But, in return (beyond dead)
I got nothing (Beyond Dead)
BEYOND
DEAD
6. Ugly
You've marked yourself, with beautiful scars
So frail and tainted, you've given in
A few dozen marks, upon your skin
There they will remain, till our final days
When I look, into your eyes
I can see the pain, you've been hiding
A, blade, carasses the skin
Shut, eyes, cutting again
What I see is overwhelming
Collapsed to your knees from all the bleeding
A crimson flow runs down your arms
A gory array of beautiful scars
I can't change what has come to pass
The horrible trace of a broken past
That'll live forever through memories
One more escape through painful ecstacy
I have looked through everything, that remains
It doesn't add up, through old blood stains
The things that were said, I will remember
Echos of pain, reverberate forever
I place the blade, to my vein
Without a second thought, I dare not hesitate
One deep slice, to end it all
Never think twice, for there's nothing left
What I see is overwhelming
Collapsed to your knees from all the bleeding
A crimson flow runs down your arms
A gory array of beautiful scars
I can't change what has come to pass
The horrible trace of a broken past
That'll live forever through memories
One more escape through painful ecstacy
7. From Ashes, to Nothing
The skin has turned, pale blue
From scars I can, no longer hide
Rest a moment, and subdue
The pain that's felt, inside..
Contorting my soul, and my mouth
From what was, once a smile
Sadness has brought, my demons out
I'll never understand, this denial
(from ashes to nothing..)
I've become numb, i'm coming apart
From the dull ache, of my heart
Show my feelings, that you shred
I've bled life away though i'm not yet dead
Suicide, i've run out of answers
It was never ment to be this way
Suicide, i've played Death's game
Cutting deep because I can't feel the pain
SUICIDE, is all I have left
Yet you still don't understand
SUICIDE, i've said my goodbyes
No turning back, NOT THIS TIME
The shearing of my, heart and pride
Thoughts of you, consuming me
I choose to no longer feel inside
And close my eyes because I don't want to see
(from ashes to nothing..)
The love we felt has turned to pain
Your disdain now takes it toll
Shards, of, your absense
Have severed me, from it all
Suicide, i've run out of answers
It was never ment to be this way
Suicide, i've played Death's game
Cutting deep because I can't feel the pain
SUICIDE, is all I have left
Yet you still don't understand
SUICIDE, i've said my goodbyes
No turning back, NOT THIS TIME
THE SKIN HAS TURNED, PALE BLUE
FROM SCARS I CAN, NO LONGER HIDE
REST A MOMENT, AND SUBDUE
THE PAIN THAT'S FELT, INSIDE
8. Harold
Drudging through shadows, Harold will find you
There's no where to hide from the eyes of the dead
His cold hands will grasp your throat
Through dead eyes he'll watch you choke
The-scare-crow-man
Will-never-give-up
He-will-wait-forever
For-the-right-time..
Harold is waiting to kill again
Harold is waiting to steal your skin
Harold now waits, out of plain sight
Gutted and bleeding he'll skin you alive
Harold now waits, out of plain sight
Wearing the skin of one of his victims
You think you are safe, but he is waiting
You are alone, you feel his glare
You have looked and found there's nothing there
But you can feel his cold dead stare
The-scare-crow-man
Does-not-sleep...
He-will-wait-forever
Harold-will-find-you..
Harold will find you
Harold WILL find you
Harold is waiting to kill again
Harold is waiting to steal your skin
Harold now waits, out of plain sight
Gutted and bleeding he'll skin you alive
Harold now waits, out of plain sight
Wearing the skin of one of his victims........
Harold is waiting to kill again
Harold is waiting to remove your skin
Harold is waiting to kill again
Harold is waiting to remove your skin
Harold is waiting to kill again
Harold is waiting to remove your skin
Harold is waiting to kill again
Harold is waiting to remove your skin
9. Her darkest Hour
With the purest skin, and dark blue eyes
She runs a blade down, her arms and then her thighs
I know it hurts dear, but only for awhile
Down her skin... then onto tile
(She bleeds)
(She bleeds)
She self inflicts, the pain away
A spider bite, makes the mind stray
Lay upon your sacred cloud, never falling to the ground
I cradle you in my arms, to make the bleeding slow
(Never falling..)
(..to the ground)
She self inflicts, the pain away
She self inflicts, the pain away
She self inflicts, the pain away
She self inflicts, the pain away
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
(She self inflicts..)
(..the pain away)
So beautifully depressed, she puts her head down
Everything goes black, another empty potion found
Spiders and bugs upon your skin, the world fades..
A meloncholic black, before a pale grey
(Pale grey)
(Pale grey)
Whispering candles, make the shadows dance
Another breath of dust, and two more are gone
A fragrance oh so sweet, essence of heroin
One last prick, of the spider's venom
(The world fades..)
(..to a pale grey)
She self inflicts, the pain away
She self inflicts, the pain away
She self inflicts, the pain away
She self inflicts, the pain away
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
SHE MUTILATES, THE PAIN AWAY
WHY?!
WHY?!
WHY?!
WHY?!
WHY?!........
10. Redemption Denied
It was you who did this to me, to us, but I forgive you
For I feel, the pain you hide, masked in sorrow behind your eyes
It's as though there's nothing left, except for memories, never forgotten
But I will always love you, for who you are, inside..
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
This is the last..
Time I will fall..
Can you feel me..
Let go of it all?..
Redemption denied
Redemption denied
Do you really, understand
Your decision, and what you've done
You were my life, my reason to be
When you took your life you took mine from me
Redemption denied
Redemption denied
Through death, I still love you, hold my heart, forever
All the memories, we shared, are all I have, left of her
I will always cherish you, and the beauty you held within your eyes
Words could never express the pain, I will always feel, inside..
Redemption denied
Redemption denied
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
Re.. demp.. tion.. Denied
I remember..
That day clearly..
You were taken..
Away from me..
Redemption denied
Redemption denied
I have sat and wondered why
But everytime I can't help but cry
In your absense I cut down deep
I can't live without you near me
(solo)
Redemption denied
Redemption denied
Through death, I still love you, hold my heart, forever
All the memories, we shared, are all I have, left of her
I will always cherish you, and the beauty you held within your eyes
Words could never express the pain, I will always feel, inside..
Redemption DENIED
11. The Final Sacrifice
When the last leaves have fallen (all alone, ALL ALONE)
And the last crow has flown away (all alone, ALL ALONE)
I reflect upon another day (all alone, ALL ALONE)
As the emptiness grabs hold again (all alone, ALL ALONE)
Through memories, I relive what was once
In my mind I can feel the touch
The warmth, of life, before it turned cold
Before numb hands made their final sacrifice
I'll never make the same mistake
Numb it all out, beneath my skin
Erase what has happened, with a razor blade
No more tears, and no more pain
When the last wind whispers by (all alone, ALL ALONE)
And the thoughts have all left my mind (all alone, ALL ALONE)
There remains one last end to tie (all alone, ALL ALONE)
One more noose, for one more sacrifice (all alone, ALL ALONE)
Five long days, have since passed
Though I didn't know it'd be the last
I'd never know joy like I had before
The choice was made, to end the pain
I'll never make the same mistake
Numb it all out, beneath my skin
Erase what has happened, with a razor blade
No more tears, and no more pain
I'll never make the same mistake
Numb it all out, beneath my skin
Erase what has happened, with a razor blade
No more tears, and no more pain
I can't believe, this has happened
You went and ruined everything
But it's not your fault it turned out like this
No more blaming the dead
12. Just Like Smoke (Bonus)
Just like smoke, you fuckin' vanished
You were gone, without a trace
Without a hint, you were erased
Through death you took your life away
Just-Like-Smoke
(You disappeared)
Just-Like-Smoke
(I can't feel you)
Just-Like-Smoke
(I can't find you)
Just-Like-Smoke
(Let it fade away..)
Just like smoke, fall into shadow
Embrace the abyss, and the hollow
Circles of something, no longer there
The final test, has long since passed
Just-Like-Smoke
(Vanishing)
Just-Like-Smoke
(You disappeared)
Just-Like-Smoke
(Let it fade)
Just-Like-Smoke
(Vanishing....)
---------------------------------
A few lyrics may be slightly off, since I wrote and
recorded this song in one day, and never wrote any of
it down
13. Gone Forever (Bonus)
Gone..
For..
ev..
er..
With a blade you took your life
And everyday I wonder why
I can't believe you really did it
You really took your life
(solo)
14. The End of Everything (Bonus)
It seems as though everything has dulled out
Fading from a light, that wasn't very bright in the first place
Perhaps I don't see the point of waking up today
When I know nothing has changed, except the time, and the date
No one cares if I live or die
If i cut myself or commit suicide
I guess i've, had enough
I've reached the end of everything
No one cares if I live or die
If i cut myself or commit suicide
I guess i've, had enough
I've reached the end of everything
Why should we bother to live a life of strain
Stretched to the limits of what we can take
I get the chills when I think about it
About how mindless drones will never give a shit
No one cares if I live or die
If i cut myself or commit suicide
I guess i've, had enough
I've reached the end of everything
No one cares if I live or die
If i cut myself or commit suicide
I guess i've, had enough
I've reached the end of everything
15. (solo) (Bonus)
