1. (Call On) The Attacker

Higher, higher the dragon soars
People fear his majestic roars
Louder, louder the storm brews
Killing the ship's almighty crew
No, no more despair

Slay the monster if you dare
No, no more despair
Call on the attacker
Call on the attacker

In the wind the children cry
All their loves had to die
Dark and wild waves the sea
No weapons left for me

In the wind the children cry
All their loves had to die
Attacker fights for your glory
Blood and guts all so gory
What now!




2. Slayer's Blade

I turn around, it's so unreal,
Dreadful sight, bloodstained steel
Reality begins to fade
All i see is slayer's blade
A warrior who feats on doom
Gathers darkness provokes gloom
Hang 'em high on gallow's pole
Slayer's blade will take your soul

Somehow i feel i don't belong
Hauntingly he chants his song
Dead soldiers in the field
Slayer's blade will not yield

A warrior who feats on doom
Gathers darkness provokes gloom
Hang 'em high on gallow's pole
Slayer's blade will take your soul




3. Disciple

Down, down in the valleys below
Children stare, but they don't know
Magic sparks fill the air
A maiden of beauty oh so fair
Oh oh so fair
Oh she's oh so fair
Oh oh so fair!

Bewildered you are
But do not fear
Bewildered you are
Peace will soon be here
Children once stared but now they know
The secrets that lie in valleys below
Disciple come forth
Eternal life is just up north
Oh it's just up north
Oh, oh up north
Oh it's just up north




4. The Hermit

On a cold wintery mountain
He draws the final curtaln
The hermit cries
As his inner soul dies

Golden sand
Crimson land
He's alone on his world
Hear his plea
For can't you see
His llfe has been hurled

Hermit, hermit alone on a hill
Let them laugh, say what they will
Hermit, hermit, your time has come...

Looking down at the life that was his own
With no love in his heart he is alone




5. Zero Hour

The kings that rule visions
Their visions entangle your minds
Sound of footsteps behind you
Makes sanity so hard to find

Minutes seem like days
While you wait in fear
Hours seem like years
Knowing destiny's here

The queens that launch soldiers
Launch soldiers that cut like a knife
And the peddler of fortune
Tries to make deals to barter your life

Minutes seem like days
While you wait in fear
Hours seem like years
Knowing destiny's here

Well the bride of misfortune
Tries to make you look and believe
With her body of beauty
And her heart that can only deceive
While the souls of the perished
Make you listen and look at the light
Try to give you the courage
To stand up and go for the fight

Minutes seem like days
While you wait in fear
Hours seem like years
Knowing destiny's here




6. Captives Of Babylon

Over raging seas
Crossing desert sands
Armies conquer the land

Captives cry for freedom
Chained without reason
Enslaving of man
Pagan feasts they rage in glory
Worship idols without worry
They live for the gold

People die with their families
Because they pray to their god
They treasure their soul

Gods of power rage like thunder
Gods of wealth wage war
Kings of fury rule the power
Chains of babylon's soldiers roar

Slaves of hope await salvation
Swarmed in masses the time has come
Wicked ruler falls from power
Life's righteousness will be done




7. Desecration

Who is the one
Who has put out the sun
Mother earth filled with fire
From the w0rds of a l1ar
Stands the men with no minds
Who are the leaders of the blind
As the one plants the seed
Who can make all of us bleed

Please hear the cry
Of the ones who will die
As he raises wis hand
Forclng fire through the land
Now the plague starts to spread
To the brave ones who have fled
But comes a man wlth no fear
Of the tyrant who is here
Smashing downward his blade
Forcing vengeance he has made

All is gone, nothing at all is heard
Because it has all been done before
But no one ever has learned

He has come to conquer the one
Destroy the man who has put out the sun

Crushing words of a liar
His vengeance has come to put out the fire

He has come to conquer the one
Destroy the man who has come to put out the sun
Condemn the one who has come up from hell




8. Revelations Of Evil

Fallen ruins of a race no more
Winds howl with silence as they roar
Masses fight the crown we defend
Waiting for their savior to descend
They look for their salvation
Escape their own damnation
To the end
An island of sacrifice was once filled with violence
An island of sacrifice and rituals untold
The presence of evil is disguised as tranquil
A disguise when looked at is folling us all

Spirits of the restlessness
Drinking wine of the dead

Revealing the evil is part of the terror
A terror which cuts down all in its way
The haunting of demons are trying to pillage
A haunting that shivers you right through
Your soul

Spirits of the restlessness
Drinking of the dead

As we sit and wonder of it all
All the untold secrets of before




9. Soul Taker

A story is told, of a demon like man
Way back in the dark, a forsaken land

Taker of souls into the depths of hell
Taker of souls on earth he dwells
Taker of souls can you hear the cries
Taker of souls why do they have to die
A legend tells, of the vicious beast
Attacking the land, killing the weak

Hacking, slashing they fought the beast
Bodies lie scattered slaughtered sheep
Take on this creature, may be too strong
Fate of the village, destiny's born
Ooooh destroy the beast
Ooooh destroy the beast
Fought like true soldiers, for family and god
Losing no option, carry on
Women and children lives are at stake
With blood and sweat they died that day
Ooooh destroy the beast
Ooooh destroy the beast
Destroy the beast...
He'll take your soul, to hell, to hold
You'll never, be free again his servant until life's end
Can't fight this unholy force
In hell, life takes it's course
In hell, life takes it's course




10. Jack

Dark and gloomy London streets
In the shadow lurks this evil
Twisted soul, his heart grows gold
Anger brewing, tension seetheing
Psychopath is on the loose taking life, his hatred crime
No one stops this savage beast
From terrorizing your and I!
Respected by day
A hunter by night
The devil incarnate
Many demons inside

Hiding and watching your every move
He senses the kill closes in on you
The smell of your blood is like a sweet perfume
Pain, suffer his gift so cruel

Why do I do, the things that I do?
What drives my insanity
Nothings clear to me
Why (you didn't have to)
Why (I didn't want to)
Why (she was innocent)
Why (I don't care)

Killing's my pleasure, nothing else can compare
A sick nasty habit (a habit) catch me if you dare
I defy those in power (what power) find me if you can
It's best if you hurry
Before I strike again!




11. Sleepy Hollow

Demons on his black steed
Racing through forests night
His heads is nowhere to be found
It's a terryfying sight
Hew scours 'round the countryside
Silver blade in hand
No citizen is safe tonight
He gets what he demands

In sleepy hollow (your head is up for grabs)
In sleepy hollow (fear for your life)
In sleepy hollow (it's you he seeks to find)
In sleepy hollow (beware the night)

When you least expect it
When the horseman strikes
He flies out of the darkness
You sense something's not right
He wields his sword, you hear the steel
He's bearing down on you
You pray to god to spare your life
Then slice, you know you're thru

He's got some heads, now you would think
His nights work was through
Not until the sunrise, will he stop hunting you
His stolen skull must be returned
So he can rest in peace
Until then it seems my friend
You're probably dead meat




12. The End

Lightning flashers in swollen skies
Thunder rumbles, angels cry
Storms are coming from heavens above
The beginning of the end, has just begun

You were told (to clean up your act, you've got only one chance)
You've been warned (the wrath of the gods would come in every form)
You should have known (to scorn mother nature, deface her creation)
It's now too late
She is judge and jury time to ate your fate
Polar caps melting, tides on the rise
Volcanos erupting, lava slides
Temperatures rising, planets dying
End is coming, people crying

Lightning flashers in swollen skies
Thunder rumbles, angels cry
Temperatures rising, planets dying
End is coming, people crying




13. The Unknown

Burning red
Within my eyes
All knowing despair
Deep down inside
Dark deceiver
Betrayer of man
Blackest of hearts

Chorus:
Escape the unknown
Be led to your demise
Escape the unknown

Spiraling down
Out of control
Swirling confusion
I just can’t know
Being pulled
To the left and right
My faith is dying

(Chorus)

Burning red
Within my eyes
Lights going out
I’m losing I know
Tore my heart
Won’t let go
This is my moment

(Chorus)

You are a riddle
Yet you shrink from me
You are beggar
Yet you take from me
Crawling inward
Fear can dominate
Find the answer
Find the answer

You are a beggar
Yet you took from me
You are a crawler
Yet you walk from from me
Free of your will
Fear will dominate
Find the answer
Find the answer

…you won’t




14. Nail It Down

Four beasts in one man
Soaring down
Shrieks aloud
Fate steals with silent tread
We lived a thousand deaths

By the throat nail it down

Three beasts in one man
Grotesque enigma
Danger gathers
Treasures rise
A fortnight now it’s time
By the throat nail it down
Crush its spine nail it down

Two beasts become one
We’ve fed off our fright
Now unmasked, now revealed
It’s no worse than you or I




15. I Am Sinn

Face your hate
Face your fate
Bleed your tears
Bleed your fears

A secret knock
A new world to enter
A secret knock
Hatred has won

Awake slowly rise
Decide agonize
Shrouds of dirt
Shrouds of poison

Enter the light, come from your darkness
Nothing you do will set me free
Enter my earth, gather your zealots
Nothing you say can make me see

Create, decimate
That’s who I am
Who am I?
I am sinn




16. This Is Power
