1. Coffin Maker
Hammer of human bone
Nails of cold forged steel
Like a stone faced visage
I drive the nails to seal
A shiny, black casket
A vile coffin of sorts
To hold the corpse inside
Sheltered from the world
Sail a river so calm and black
On the river Styx, there's no turning back
Charon at the rudder, eternally nail the coffin
Fathers' eyes stare coldly, feeling he lacks
Is there a name for this sort of goulery?
As I think to myself, the death roll summons
Dirt falls and the hole grows shallow
Lead the legions for I will follow
2. Crionical Death
I was put away, for a hundred years
Frozen body, frozen tears
Ruptured cells, died in my soul
Couldn't survive, in the cold
And I see... my older years
Slipping away
And I feel... my tissue crack
I'm melting away
Was revived once, but death came soon
Being frozen meant my life's doom
I was kept alone, waiting for cures
Thought it'd be soon, mind no longer stirs
And I see... my whole life
Fading away
And I feel my body frozen
I'm melting away
3. Infanticide
Power of evil lies deep in your soul
Conjur the dead for the life you hold
Children's bodies lay deep below
In their graves, in their holes
You love to kill in the midnight moon
Another kid dies, almost too soon
Feel your anguish, feel your need
To kill children and unborn seeds
Your fantasy reinacted through events
Upbring of life you prevent
Social-genocide, the way of the streets
Kill in graceful, mechanical heat
Infanticide, to kill the children
Hide 'em below your infectious building
Pain and anguish, you hold your hell
Fall deeper and deeper, to the pits of hell
Mournful parents hunt you by day
Trying to bring back the kid you killed today
Infanticide, the way you kill
Fall deeper to the anguish of hell
You may think I'm on your side
Now its time to bid you goodbye
'Member that girl you killed first?
She was mine, time to quench my thirst
4. Human Candle
Encroach upon me now
Oh, master of the underworld
Take me back with you
I'll suffer upon the pyre of hell
Internal! Pain! What's wrong with me?
Burn! Now! Fire from the inside out
Ashes! Dust! Spontaneous...Human combustion
It's so very hot down here
Live and burn just to die again
Fires burn white and laugh with glee
Damned for sure, eternal darkness to see
Contend! Comprehend? Why must I burn?
Confusion! Dismay! My charred body remains
Forever! Damned! Spontaneous...Human combustion
Explain this death I've endured
For eons I'll burn, a human candle
My soul reeks of torment and brimstone
Extinguish this flame and set my soul free
Human candle
5. Whispered Dreams
Dream, with me tonight
Close your eyes and whisper goodnight
Sail across the sea with me
Seems as though you'll be
I'll be dreamin' of that day too
I'll be there for you, day after day
Flowers of the midst of
Someone like you
Remember our love
It means that a dream, is just a dream
Live a memory deep inside me
Thank god you'll finally see
I'll be dreamin' of that day too
I'll be there for you, day after day
Flowers of the midst of
Someone like you
6. War Machine
