1. Threshold
2. Awakening
Hear me, we stand on the threshold
Soon it will fall
Through me, an army is rising
We will conquer all
So you can't see, Can you still believe
Fear me, you paperback heroes
Taste reality
Face me, come out of the shadows
I will set you free
So you can't see, Can you still believe
Live for the night, Now we arise
Creatures of sin, My awakening
Banish the sun, Now we are one
Voices within, My awakening
Now we are one, Black is the sun
Open your eyes, Now we arise
Power is driving us on
Burning with savage desire
Freedom, In battle our fortunes are won
Fueling the fire
3. The Name On the Bullet
Emptiness I have become
Stare right into the sun
Everything's out of control
Black hole
Vanity mirrors the mind
Sinking hooks and lines
Sanity covers the rage
Soul cage
The taste of metal in my mouth reveals
The bullet bears my name
This is the cross I crave
So nail it to my brain
Satisfy every belief
Weave this web of deciet
Glorify rats in the race
Loose faith
Penetrate like a disease
You're all too eager to please
Generate reality
Find me
The taste of metal in my mouth reveals
The bullet bears my name
This is the cross I crave
A self-destructive game
Some things will never change
4. Let the Torment Begin
Lock your doors, Lock them tight, Shut out the night
Call them down, The haunted sounds of broken light
Now they come for you, Nocturnus breathes
The fear inside your mind will never leave
Glass is smashed upon the floor
Lights surround the ouija board
Pools of darkness, Deep with sin
All Hell screams, Let the torment begin
The summoning of entities that should not be
Released, the undead legions of eternity
Spiritual survival, Masterplan
You mess with things you do not understand
Evil unleashed and chaos reigns
The highest stakes to play the game
Cross the threshold deep within
All Hell screams, Let the torment begin
Evil angels wrap their claws around your spine
You're such a fool, You've lost the game, lost your mind
Now they live through you, Nocturnus sighs
Consumed by pain, your body slowly dies
Until another plays the game
Only battlefields will change
Fallen angels rise again
All Hell screams, Let the torment begin
5. Time Is the Enemy
My dreams I left behind
A place I could not find
I walked a trail of tears
where memories disappear
I tried to lift the veil
The breath beneath was stale
I stared along the trail
I failed....
A thousand second chances rob me blind
There's no time....
Unlock the secrets in my mind
If death gives me the answer I will find
There's no time....
To fight the demons as I die
I watched the candle's flame
Through darkness I could tame
The demons of the night
I swore that I would fight
I found the wings to fly
Revealed the open sky
If living is to die
Can I?...
A thousand second chances rob me blind
There's no time....
Unlock the secrets in my mind
If death gives me the answer I will find
There's no time....
To fight the demons as I die
6. Once You Were Here
Don't let me fall into this night
Don't let the troubled waters clear
Until the stillness of my mind
Answers the questions that I fear
I never saw the bridges burn
Maybe now you realise
Left with nowhere else to turn
With you the final answer lies
Father hide me from this fate
Where will you go when your not here
Will it help me if I pray
Or will it justify my tears
I never saw the bridges burn
Maybe now you realise
Left with nowhere else to turn
With you the final answer lies
Mother I've done all I can
I just can't seem to fight the changes
I've tried to be the things I am
But somehow I feel wasted
I never saw the bridges burn
Maybe now you realise
Left with nowhere else to turn
With you the final answer lies
And you never said goodbye
And I never cried
Sometimes I feel you by my side
With you the final answer dies
7. The Needle's Cry
Yeah the hands are 'round your throat
You're face against the glass
You've nurtured self-destructive seeds
They've grown to block your path
Now the lies pour thick and thin
You're rage against the past
Your eyes still burn the truth within
But now you're falling fast
You can hear the needle's cry
These promises will help you lie
Such a lovely way to die
'On your knees', the needles cry
You can hear the needle's cry
Raise your hands up to the sky
Screaming out when pain replies
'On your knees', the needles cry
Reaching out, we took you hand
We swam against the tide
The voice of hope cried out in vein
a f.... waste of life
So turn away and crawl the line
Blood trails lead to pain
Can't face the facts, this mirror cracks
And you're alone again
You can hear the needle's cry
These promises will help you lie
Such a lovely way to die
'On your knees', the needles cry
You can hear the needle's cry
Raise your hands up to the sky
Screaming out when pain replies
'On your knees', the needles cry
8. Paradise Road
Time, is time to fight illusion
Pain, is not the knife's conclusion
Fear, is not an institution
Don't hold on to life's confusion
It all seems so easy
Raise it to the sky
Here's to love, Love to hate
On the road to paradise
Touch of daylight, Can you see me now
Lying far beneath the ice
Silent screaming, Can you hear me now
On the road to paradise
Now, is how you make corrections
Hate, leads you to hate infection
What's the point of resurrection?
Choose to make a change, direction
It all seems so easy
Raise it to the sky
Here's to love, Love to hate
On the road to paradise
Touch of daylight, Can you see me now
Lying far beneath the ice
Silent screaming, Can you hear me now
On the road to paradise
Here's to love, Love to hate
Look through the glass to see it straight
Here's to truth when truth is blind
Here's to the road I've left behind
Touch of daylight, Can you see me now
Lying far beneath the ice
Silent screaming, Can you hear me now
On the road to paradise
9. Machines of War
