 1. The Devil And The Whore
 
 Around the chapel they gather
 The whore, she lies on the altar
 She waits to give herself over
 She waits to take him inside her
 
 The candle flames start to flicker
 An icy chill fills the air
 The master enters the chapel
 A son for him she shall bear
 
 Tonight the legions amass
 The heavens spill over in tears
 Tonight shall be born a monster
 As saints revel in their fears
 
 Consecrate the most infernal of all wombs
 
 Black clouds flood the sky, the moon turns red
 The Devil and whore consummate
 Their lust, it thickens the air and chokes out all light
 The whore gives in to the devil and allows him every desire and wish
 Every sin, every pleasure, every vice
 
 All the heavens they cry with each blasphemy that the two commit
 Each thrust leading them ever closer still
 All the heavens they tear at the sound of the whore in her ecstasy
 Signaling that the devil will soon spill
 All the heavens they tremble as the devil plants the whore with his seed
 Tonight a beast shall be born to rule over earth
 All the heavens, they wail as the prophecies of old come to pass
 The devil, the whore, and the birth
 
 
 
 
 2. Blackened
 
 Pain, the time has now come
 Heaven set ablaze
 Angels bathe in blood
 Of their slaughtered god
 Darkness covers all
 Light no longer shines
 The wretched take their place
 Upon the throne of night
 
 Death, christ turned into dust
 It's army left to rot
 The kingdom overthrown
 Replaced with blackened souls
 Lamb of god defleshed
 Torn from its holy womb
 Blood poured on the earth
 To sow the seeds of hate
 
 We come to bring you death
 We destroy all that we find
 We are the final war
 The plague that kills all life
 We seek the final days
 We walk the final path
 Onward to the end we march
 As we leave this life behind
 
 
 
 
 3. The Oath
 
 I've watched as your empires have fallen
 And laughed as your gods have all cried
 I've tempted the souls of your pious
 And tainted their minds with my lies
 I've traveled across all the earth
 And I've cursed it with each step I've taken
 I've shed the most innocent of blood
 In the name of that which you call Satan
 
 There are no chains which can hold me
 No sword which can pierce through my skin
 There are no saints I've not slaughtered
 And no evil I've not taken within
 There is no sin I've not tasted
 No blasphemy I have not embraced
 No rule or law I've not broken
 No scripture I have not defaced
 
 The oath which binds me to this world
 For past times and those yet to come
 This oath which has left me immortal
 And allows me to outlive the sun
 Death it shall never embrace me
 It's cold grasp shall not touch my life
 I'm bound by the oath to this world
 Forever free to spread pestilence and strife
 
 
 
 
 4. Slaying The Nazarene
 
 Gathered now are we
 To war against the light
 To watch the kingdom burn
 Crush seraphs into dust
 
 Gathered now are we
 To usher in black death
 Bring armageddon forth
 Slit the very throat of life
 
 Gathered now are we
 To sacrifice the lamb
 To crucify their christ
 Baptize the all in fire
 
 Gathered now are we
 To conquer heaven's throne
 To cast out all his flock
 To slaughter all his meek
 Gathered now are we
 For this final feast
 On the flesh of man
 And on the souls of angels
 
 We will slay the nazarene
 The bastard son of god
 We will slay the holy lamb
 And tear this world apart
 
 
 
 
 5. The Heretic
 
 Pray to the old god for your blood to flow free
 
 Satanic wrath for your mortal pride has blinded you to the path
 Eternal hell will descend upon your kin for transgression you have made
 One thousand earthly suns could not equate the light that will burn your soul asunder
 An eternity of pain unleashed onto you for the final days are here
 
 Cursed is your blood which i'll spill upon this altar in sacrificial rites
 Old gods laugh as your feeble christ cries at the destruction of his flock
 Nighttime sky alive with cries of pain and sorrow as angels burn like candles
 The blood of their wings as wax upon the earth, the final days are here
 
 
 
 
 6. Blackened (The Circle Complete)
 
 Under the moonlight we rode
 To the twilight horizon we marched
 To bring forth the end of all time
 To bring forth the new age of death
 
 At the gates of heaven we gathered
 And stormed through to capture the throne
 We bathed in the blood of the angels
 And ate from the corpse of gods lamb
 
 The heavens replaced with a black cloud
 The earths womb now barren and torn
 Our journey brought us to this new dawn
 Now we bask in the black rays of death
 
 The end is now here
 The circle complete
 The twilight of man
 The end of all time
 
 
 
 
 7. Across The Shores.../Four Suns
 
 Prophecies of old
 legends whispered of the days of wrath
 when the curse of existence is lifted
 and morality a shell long cast aside
 all that lies under the sun
 torn apart from the inside out
 as hatred itself manifests in a glorious
 orgy of destruction and despair
 
 too long has this wheel been revolving
 far too long has earth been cursed with the stench of humanity
 but the bowels of unlife are destined to erupt
 and spew forth great black seas of death
 the skies shall crack and the heavens shall fall
 and all that live will decay from within
 pestilence and plagues, famines and floods
 disease, death, and glorious war
 
 four suns rise in the dawns early light
 a signal the end time has begun it's descent
 that all will be lost and laid to waste
 absorbed to fuel the fires of hell
 four suns scorch the earth of all life
 searing its flesh as it empties it's womb
 the great whore earth raped on her deathbed
 her bastard offspring fed into the glorious fires of hell
 
 eight shadows arise
 enslavers of all that who remain
 they now sit on the throne of death
 and they shall bring hell onto the earth
 
 the first is hatred
 the second is envy
 the third lust
 and the fourth is greed
 the fifth, pride
 the sixth, corruption
 the seventh, bloodlust
 and the eighth is deceit
 
 praise this dark new eon
 praise this return to truth
 praise this massacre of the innocent
 praise this our destiny unleashed!
 
 i will laugh from the edge of armageddon
 as everything you've ever known is destroyed
 as your world falls apart
 as your icons are shattered into dust
 i will laugh at the death of your children
 i will laugh at the death of your gods
 i will laugh at the death of your fallacies
 and i will laugh as i embrace death with open arms
 
 
 
 
 8. Violence And Force (Exciter Cover)
 
 Living in fear in the ditches at the front
 Fighting for my life never knowing what's to come
 Shell shock, heart attack eats me to the bone
 Through the darkest Hell this battle rages on & on
 Enemy attack walls of fire burn the sky
 Fighting with the rats of war, preparing to die
 
 Violence & Force
 Taken by Violence & Force
 Violence & Force
 Taken by Violence & Force
 
 Armed with the weapons the power and the might
 Opening fire defacing all in sight
 Nuclear disaster forget about the war
 A touch of switch no man will exist no more
 Enemy attack walls of fire burn the sky
 Fighting with the rats of war, preparing to die
 
 Violence & Force
 Taken by Violence & Force
 Violence & Force
 Taken by Violence & Force
 
 Life on the stage is like the bloody crypts of war
 Mind ripping metal shouting out for more
 Fire bombs & smoke white beamsfrom the lights
 The scene of a battle burning in the night
 Leave behind the weak we must take the strong in hand
 Together are the wicked violent forces in command
 
 Violence & Force
 Taken by Violence & Force
 Violence & Force
 Taken by Violence &
 Force!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
 
 
 
 9. Take This Torch (Razor Cover)
 
 Searching in the darkness, searching for the light
 Looking to the darkness, putting up a fight
 Iron chains surround you, you try to make a run
 Someone near has found you, and now you see the sun
 Bright lights, now you can see where you are
 Far, out in the universe
 Now, you, try to escape from this spot
 Hot, ready or not
 Take this torch
 Feel the white hot metal, feel it burn your skin
 Experience the torture, pay for all your sins
 Taken to the stairwell, taken to a cell
 Scorches all your body, taste the wrath of hell
