Sweet Oblivion
05:18
|
|||
Skies open wide
Bring forth their death
Whirlwind chaos
Unleash your wrath
Devastation
Twisting, turning
Callous, black hand
Souls left burning
Winds of plague, disease falls
Raining down, suffer all
Thunderous fury
Pestilence looms
The sirens sound
Signal the doom
Darkness descends
Chokes out the stars
Clouds grip the ground
Gouge out new scars
Winds of plague, diseased rains
Tortuous pain, end of days
Sweet oblivion open your arms
Embrace our despair, suffer no more
Wind burning eyes
Vortex rips earth
Cyclonis sweeps
Pandemic scourge
Dark torture clouds
Black death ballet
Decimates all
Hell comes our way
Winds of plague, bodies rain
From the sky, thousands die
Sweet oblivion open your arms
Embrace our despair, suffer no more
The wailing of damned souls echoes
Signaling the coming crescendo
Sweet oblivion open your arms
Embrace our despair, suffer no more pain

The Wicked Divine
03:24
|
|||
At the cross of cavalry
Righteous knaves fall to their knees
Snakes and thieves tempt their fallacy
Descending through their hypocrisy
Darkness falls
For three hours
Golgotha quakes, dead saints will rise
A man’s death, two-thousand years of strife
Forsaken
Roll back the stone, the burden is yours
Enslaving the masses, the suffering’s ours
All forsaken
Jesus Christ prophesized
His “chosen” will worship in paradise
But with his thorns we are scorned
To wallow in torment forever mourned
His bleeding side canonized
Commands us to kneel and be paralyzed
By human hands and God’s command
A tome of lies thrust upon all of man-kind
Psalms and scriptures written in verse
Spread like a plague to poison the earth
Pilate’s sins wrought the wicked divine
Persecuted their entitlement shines
Forsaken
Demons of hell’s delight, serpents in paradise
That are deceiving us all with the blood divine
All forsaken
His sallow eyes rolled to the skies
Damning us all with his sacrifice
The savior bleeds, guilt to belief
While heretics revel in blasphemy
Satanic rise, crush the divine
The frail, the meek, the paralyzed
To our delight, the world ignites
The smoldering ruins of paradise
At the cross of cavalry
Righteous knaves fall to their knees
Pilate’s sins wrought the wicked divine
Persecuted their entitlement shines

Chains from the Abyss
03:11
|
|||
No tears please
It all ends here
With us, the disciples of Hell
Our disfigured forms
Are but a glimpse of the hell to come
And the pain that awaits you there
Demons to some, angels to others
But no hope for mercy either way
Jesus wept
For the souls
Abandoned to the servants of lament
We have an eternity
To know your flesh and bone
And the chains spew forth to drag you down
Demons to some, angels to others
Kneeling only before Leviathan
We’ll tear your soul apart!
We’ll teach you a lesson in sorrow
We will not waste good suffering
We’ll teach you lesson in pleasure and pain
We’ll make you one with oblivion
Desire brought you to us
No deadly sin will go untouched
Now desire reaps its own rewards
Shared with us for eternity
We’ll teach you a lesson in sorrow
We’ll teach you lessons in pleasure and pain
No deadly sin will go untouched
Shared with us for eternity
The hellbound heart summons the chains from the abyss

Caldera
03:43
|
|||
Day fades to night as the darkness rides
The moon to its throne upon those who’ve died
The ember of ages long past bled
Simmer on the surface of a world long dead
The righteous, the pious, the mortal saints
Sharing their fate with the sick, and the damned, and the dregs
Hope burns as fire rains upon us all
Souls yearn to be set free to meet their God
Rapture, the judgment days has come and gone
Left behind to burn in the caldera
Water to blood as the light subsides
From below the magma begins its rise
The stink of the ages long past dead
Choking the stars that the heavens bled
The righteous, the pious, the mortal saints
Begging for mercy from the sick, and the damned, and the dregs
Hope burns as fire rains upon us all
Souls yearn to be set free to meet their God
Rapture, the judgment days has come and gone
Left behind to burn in the caldera
Souls trapped writhing in this tortuous grasp
Faith falls, no solace in His providence
Rusted nails but no cross to die upon
Here we die alone in the caldera
Day fades to night as the darkness rides
The moon to its throne upon those who’ve died
The righteous, the pious, the mortal saints
Begging forgiveness from the sick, and the damned, and the dregs
Hope burns as fire rains upon us all
Souls yearn to be set free to meet their God
Rapture, the judgment days has come and gone
Left behind to burn in the caldera
Souls trapped writhing in this tortuous grasp
Faith falls, no solace in His providence
Rusted nails but no cross to die upon
Here we die alone in the caldera

The Undead Shall Inherit
04:04
|
|||
Undead armies walk the earth
Humanity extinguished for their thirst
A charnel house of death and pain
Even stars shall cower at their reign
These putrid corpses take the living as their slaves
And drag them down to rot with them beneath the graves
Hell stands waiting to receive them
Gates wide open
Undead armies stalking the night
Terror unfolds
Darkness descends to retrieve them
The meek lay dead
Horror unleashed upon all mankind
Death in the fog
Cemetery soldiers pillage
All within their path
Forced to slake their infernal hate
Eve’s children faced their wrath
The undead shall inherit this forsaken land
The sun is black, God’s turned his back, they’re in death’s hand
Hell stands waiting to receive them
Gates wide open
Undead armies stalking the night
Terror unfolds
Darkness descends to retrieve them
The meek lay dead
Horror unleashed upon all mankind
Death in the fog
As they orally eviscerate you
The undead spell your doom
Rotting entrails torn asunder
All flesh has been consumed
Hell stands waiting to receive them
Gates wide open
Darkness descends to retrieve them
The meek lay dead

Perverted Sacraments
02:24
|
|||
Scorch the earth, salt the dirt
Blacken the skies and hear the cries
Screams of pain, sulfur and rain
Fall from high and burn your eyes
Drain the blood from my veins
Do this now in remembrance of me
Flay the skin from my bones
Do this now in remembrance of me
A borrowed throne which mankind owns
Awaits the return so the profit will burn
Poison the wine with piss and swine
Mold the bread with the reek of the dead
Prophets of God, Perverts of Nod
Where man first stood and threw him down
We’re all just slaves to an ancient knave
Open your eyes to unlock the skies
Drain the blood from my veins
Do this now in remembrance of me
Flay the skin from my bones
Do this now in remembrance of me
Rip the life from my shell
Do this now in remembrance of me
Scar your soul
Do this now in remembrance of me

Crushed to Dust
03:34
|
|||
Gazing deep in the eyes of death
A stare that chokes my soul
Yet through its grip, the hourglass slips
The sand continues to flow
And as we fight in our final nights
God’s grace has left us cold
The light, it fades, as the shadow gains
Consuming all we know
Pain and despair hang in the air
Tainting our dreams, turning them rancid
Blood to ichor, hair falls to earth
Dead skin to dirt, turning us putrid
The maelstrom’s coming
The sky is falling
And death is stalking us
Our reckoning
Everything we love
Is warped and crushed
Death screams forth for us
It’s beckoning
And everything we love
Is crushed to dust
Temptation, salvation, redemption
A fallacy
Our path to perdition is lined with
Our enemies
Bring forth death, our last breath, the rank stench
Of suffering
Tears of blood, weep for us, please spare us
Our misery
Our reckoning
Everything we love
Is warped and crushed
Death screams forth for us
It’s beckoning
And everything we love
Is crushed to dust
Our waking nightmare
Lays our life’s guts to bear
And twists the knife of fate slow
Blood gushing from veins
And falling like rain
Our end is drawing near now
The ashes of man
Returned to the land
At the wake of innocence bestowed
The spirit of man
In the palm of death’s hand
Monolith of defiance betrothed
Ash to ash
Crushed to dust

Seeing through your eyes
The life I’m denied
The reflection of a man
That’s withered and died
Hearing through your ears
The shrieks of damned souls
The echoes of a man
For whom the bell tolls
Fused in the womb
A violent, silent tomb
The dark half of your decay
Clawing your mind away
Wanting to destroy your life of waste
A monster hides behind your placid face
Deep within begins a violent turn
I’d give anything to feel you burn
Touching through your skin
The world that you know
I quake from within
Through your blood I flow
Willing what you do
Heed my commands
Run yourself through
Your blood on my hands
Fused in the womb
A violent, silent tomb
The dark half of your decay
Clawing your mind away
Wanting to destroy your life of waste
A monster hides behind your placid face
Deep within you feel the violent turn
I’d give anything to feel you burn
BORN! Together as one
HATE! Together as one
BURN! Together as one
DIE! Together as one

Corpus Satani
04:29
|
|||
You blasphemed in his name
Now you worship in vain
But your soul belongs to
The dark creature of Hell
Fall down on your knees
Burn within his majesty
And bleed in torrents
Suffer for your blasphemy
Lament for your sins
Comes too late to stop the pain
Your scorn brings forth the
Scourge of Corpus Satani
The kingdom’s lost, ripped from your grasp
Your pyre now awaits
As he died so shall you hang
And writhe and scream in pain
Spikes through your palms, nailed to a cross
You’ll weep tears of blood
A feral moon eclipsed by the suffering which
Your blasphemy has sowed
Condemned to rot in Hell
For all eternity
Consume your salvation
Feast on Corpus Satani
The kingdom’s lost, ripped from your grasp
Your pyre now awaits
As he died so shall you hang
And writhe and scream in pain
Spikes through your palms, nailed to a cross
You’ll weep tears of blood
A feral moon eclipsed by the suffering which
Your blasphemy has sowed
They promised you Heaven
The kingdom of gold
Christ, your Messiah
The lies that were told
Condemned to burn in Hell
For all eternity
Consume your salvation
Feast on Corpus Satani

Descension
04:39
|
|||
We dwell in darkness
Revel in pain
We spill their blood in wrath
In our master’s name
So run in terror
Pitiful mortals
We bring apocalypse
Your life will end in fear
Of your impending doom
The sky grows dark
You’ll writhe and scream in pain
At the end of it all
Comes the apocalypse
Cities will crumble, turning to dust
The streets will flow with innocent blood
The world will die in flames tonight
The souls we’ve won cast into Hell
Comes the apocalypse
Our world forever
Your pain, our pleasure
Destruction, blood from flames
Blasphemy, forgive them
Inspired by night fall rise
Dark force awaken the night
Demons invoking the rite
Solace eluding the light
Rotting of flesh, mortal decay
Ecstasy slipping so slowly away
Somber dank mist, mourning in bliss
Desperately eluding death’s last lonely kiss
In rolls the storm, a cloaked figure adorned
Scythe drawn to Heaven to reap his reward
Blasphemy tears at the walls of my sanity
Bleeding our purity until we are sin
We are apocalypse
