1.	St. Barbara's Light 04:39	lyrics	buy track
She was born of greek descend, became faithful to the lord Caged in a three-windowed tower, the holy maid Swore no man should ever have her, a virgin for god “Oh Lord, he is mad!” I will lay my life into your caring hands Guard me underground so I shall come out again… Back to light, beneath the sun, Your name is written in the sky Out of the night, her spirit’s so bright Keep St. Barbara’s light. Fleeing from the mad and hiding in a cave A shepherd would betray her and turn to stone. Torture wounds should heal, sentenced to a young grave Lightning for the father, martyr for the one I will lay my life into your caring hands Fearless where no light shines with my patron saint. Guard me underground so I shall come out again… Back to light, beneath the sun, Your name is written in the sky Out of the night, her spirit’s so bright Keep St. Barbara’s light. Santa Bárbara bendita, que en el cielo estás escrita con papel y agua bendita al pie de la Santa Cruz, padre nuestro, amén Jesús

Pain – Night is falling down Wrath – The anger burns in me Fear – Try to escape (from) your destiny The reaper – The end is near Not – in control Only – Life’s extasy Sure – cunning, humble, modest Inexplicable – destructive theories Inexplicable – destructive theories CHOOSE YOUR WEAPONS – down to your knees OBEY TO MY WILL – for me to please MINE’S THE DAY – down to your knees A dream of pain, a dream of life! My mind – is seeking asylum Wartorn – it rages on. Life’s end – my vision, it gets grey Ocean soul – await the forlorn CHOOSE YOUR WEAPONS – down to your knees OBEY TO MY WILL – for me to please MINE’S THE DAY – down to your knees A dream of pain, a dream of life!
3.	The Devil and her Sins 04:09	lyrics	buy track
Hurry up, time is closing in, oh my God, saw the devil and her sins. must keep an eye to find a way out! Feeling weak every day of my life Losing power every hour, eternal strife Like glass turned to dust I scream and shout! I’m alone, enshrouded in my own eternal darkness I am alone, oh take away this hellish pain from me! Objects in the rearview mirror Coming close, always drawing nearer, Driving me into my innermost. Kneeling in a cold and empty room, The reaper’s scythe will end all soon. Don’t forget the lost, remember the forlorn! I’m alone, enshrouded in my own eternal darkness I am alone, oh take away this hellish pain from me! Sharpened blade cuts the skin Ending now this nightmare dream Life’s pulsing from the veins Leaving the mind finally sane. I’m alive, I found my dignity again I am alive, soaring free Saw the devil and her sins every day of my life, eternal strife I scream and shout in a cold and empty room And life’s pulsing from the veins Alone The reaper Finally sane Remember the forlorn!
4.	Ghost in a Shell 05:57	lyrics	buy track
A dream of silence, silence full of it, burning ardour in fantastic skies. Raining leaves of flowers, dance right before my eyes. Carry my burden in a capsule, lost in time and space Always fearing to fall from grace. Carry on, oh flame storm, keep me burning! Wild and free Carry on, my kin, be awarded my secret sins. Like a ghost in a shell living in mind’s hell Straight ahead took the wrong turn, willing to crash and to burn! The steps are made and the road is paved, I rode the snake into a silent grave… With tears in my eyes I dance A hell for the daytime, a hell in the night, Caught in the friendzone, in a daily strife. Of hearts and of lust, of silence and laughter, Of a day’s perfect make-up, of the tumbling thereafter. Carry on, oh Ice-queen, keep me burning! Wild and free Carry on, my queen, devour my soul! Like a ghost in a shell living in mind’s hell Straight ahead took the wrong turn, willing to crash and to burn! The steps are made and the road is paved, I rode the snake into a silent grave… A ghost in a shell… Straight down to hell Live in the inferno, burn out in the flames. Never satisfied, never ashamed. A touch burns like hell, a smile to extinguish. Never wept tears in my eyes! Like a ghost in a shell living in mind’s hell Straight ahead took the wrong turn, willing to crash and to burn! The steps are made and the road is paved, I rode the snake into a silent grave… Silence
5.	Arise of the Mammon 04:20	lyrics	buy track
Nuclear fire: Efface the moonlight, Hell’s wrath breaks loose, ablazing the night. Ghastly effigies haunt the land, rape the innocent’s souls. The lightbringer’s time has come, hatred’s beyond control. Heads have to roll And death takes its toll Lost all control – The demon arises – Fire on the street An astral accretion Mankind’s defeat – The demon arises – NOW! Spread two-faced the tale, who’s the greatest fool? Divide et impera, ancient lore to rule the earth Corrupting demon Mammon, enslaves the raped souls. The lightbringer’s time has come, hell’s out of control. Heads have to roll And death takes its toll Lost all control – The demon arises – Fire on the street An astral accretion Mankind’s defeat – The demon arises – NOW! Exaudi nos, Satanas Surge te ex abysso! Sume animi nostri et face nos minister tuus O princeps tenebrorum Relinque abyssum Rege orbi. Face ovis servis Et cena corpora vestris Surge ex flammis! Appare!
6.	Inferno 05:28	lyrics	buy track
From far away and yet so near, silently I gaze at you No one knows what’s happening inside of me. Love to see your sparkling eyes, uncovered, shining wild and true An affectionate smile, you grant me what I love to see. Sweet like morning dew, clear morning sky Dominate my dreams, reign my foul fantasies. Strong and yet fragile, be your secret alibi Light up the fire… only in my dreams Inferno’s coming – but stays under the surface of my soul Inferno’s come – leave my soul touched drink from the bowl. On a journey through the dark, hellish fireblast Cunning predator, alluring the prey Fire to fire and dust to dust An addiction, still imperfect to you. Inferno’s coming – but stays under the surface of my soul Inferno’s come – leave my soul touched drink from the bowl. Keep every soul at distance, I see an ocean of a soul Only look, don’t touch – It’s been a touch too much A near soul will only hurt, so keep them in safe distance I’ll be by you in light and dark, a promise… untold. Life at first gaze, I wanted to stand and stare. What did you do to enslave – oh – my entangled mind? Every morning smile compensates for the loneliness Gives me the fire, the fire, the fire to carry on
7.	Voices 03:51	lyrics	buy track
An old dusty book with ripped out pages And everything turns black before my eyes I feel you, I can see you standing there breathing down my neck, a shadow made by anger and despair I'm losing myself inside a maze of fear, of what I have become I feel you inside, you’re poisoning my thoughts Woohooohooohooo I hear your voice inside my head ‘though the words I speak are mine, I'm scared how much we sound alike Woohooohooohooo A sound that's echoing the past and I’m tearborn out of pain and hatred Through haunting dreams and repressed memories I live, I matter, you dominate me I know you and I know you're part of me Poisoning my thoughts Woohooohooohooo I hear your voice inside my head ‘though the words I speak are mine I'm scared how much we sound alike Woohooohooohooo a sound that's echoing the past and I’m tearborn out of pain and hatred
8.	Strigoii Vii 03:56	lyrics	buy track
Emptiness, agony and pain, dealt by smiles that chose to drain Happiness and joy from heart and brain Driving minds insane! Victims fulfill their need Without thinking, at full speed, In ignorance of souls that bleed To fulfill their misdeed – in vain Strigoii Vii, feeding from my love Devotion, dedication Strigoii Vii, there is no hope for the dying Suffering in loneliness Raising her to holiness Reduce myself to meaningless Dealt with a felonious Madness, pain and grief Living in full belief Resulting in a life debrief In constant unbelief – of happiness Strigoii Vii, feeding from my love Devotion, dedication Strigoii Vii, there is no hope for the dying Te urmăresc, tu la mine vii! Dragoste și ură îți dăruiesc. Tot mai mult se strânge lațul! Îmi aparții! Strigoii Vii, feeding from my love Devotion, dedication Strigoii Vii, they bequeath a trail of ashes
9.	Time runs slowly 04:30	lyrics	buy track
Time runs slowly… is steadily running A body – bruised, a mind – cunning Little angry, rebel punk A life wasted, tumbling junk? At birth I was told to call the shots in your lives But all you gave me was a world full of stripes. The holy cross was your belief or just some decoration To hide the face of a ravenous beast, so far away <<FROM ETERNAL SALVATION>> You took your lives, where did you go? Is it heaven? Is it hell? Your nirvana or just some other place? What do you see when you look at me? Are you proud of your boy? << YOU WERE NOTHING, YOU ARE NOTHING AND YOU WILL NEVER BE!>> Screams inside my soul life slowly – steadily – slides out of control. TIME RUNS SLOWLY Inner peace I long to find Life lasts too long to die – too young! TIME RUNS SLOWLY Blinded by hatred your soul you forgot Your offspring, your inner, left to die – soul lost! Without guidance to grow but with vodka and violation In your illnesses lost, no grandeur, no consolation. What are you seeing with your dead eyes? Was it all worth all the pain, all the lies? If you would live again, would you change what you did You can’t turn back my time, can’t find a cure for this shit <<YOU CALL MY LIFE>> Is this the truth? Is this my lie? An inner freedom for me to find? What is a family – denied me my wish, My most precious gift, my soul’s pains to banish. Screams inside my soul life slowly – steadily – slides out of control. TIME RUNS SLOWLY Inner peace I long to find Life lasts too long to die – too young! TIME RUNS SLOWLY Where I have to go, I go alone, no one’s here my path to follow. Take a bite from darkness, hoping I can chew – all of this. You could never imagine these pains in your child`s soul All ties severed clean – the less I have the more I gain – wander on! <<WHEREVER I MAY ROAM>> Screams inside my soul life slowly – steadily – slides out of control. TIME RUNS SLOWLY Inner peace I long to find Life lasts too long to die – too young! TIME RUNS SLOWLY
10.	We rule the Night 05:05	lyrics	buy track
Scanning the crowd, some shiny eyes to see That live for the moment, who will it be? I feel the lust for life’s delights, This moment is right, now spread open wide! Eyes have met, exhaustion I want to see Insanity reigns the scene – scream for me! See my finger pointing straight to you The mouth of seven, straight way to heaven, I came here for you! We rule the night! Fire’s burning bright! Out of the shadows WE STRIKE, We rule the night! We rule the night! We were not made for the light! Out of the shadows WE STRIKE, We rule the night! The curtains fall, we haste to the dark Adrenaline’s high, struck fast as a shark. We live for this moment, just you and me A deep explosion no one will see! We rule the night! Fire’s burning bright! Out of the shadows WE STRIKE, We rule the night! We rule the night! We were not made for the light! Out of the shadows WE STRIKE, We rule the night! I know you remember my name! Only the strong will survive, we are the cast out of light Remember that you have been warned! We rule the night! Fire’s burning bright! Out of the shadows WE STRIKE, We rule the night! We rule the night not made for the light! Out of the shadows WE STRIKE, We rule the night! We rule the night, ours is the night!
11.	Claymore 4.0 06:32	lyrics	buy track
Out of thin air, appearing in the light. Rise again with power, dusted off, fury burns bright. For I am the Warlord, arisen in might, You should have expected me. Now I bring obliteration to every foe in sight, Expel you from your sanctuary. Me friends, who you’ve been true to me, Raise that cup of wine! These times will again be glorious, Celestial, divine! CLAYMORE - Sword of the gods CLAYMORE - Against all odds CLAYMORE - To holy steel we pray CLAYMORE - Every enemy to slay Put on ye armours, get ready for the battle Begin the battle choirs, the enemies shall tremble. Rearrange the lines, foot soldiers to the front Prepare for the destruction. Riders to the flanks, begin the wild hunt In total seduction of death. Me friends, who you’ve been true to me, Raise that cup of wine! These times will again be glorious, Celestial, divine! CLAYMORE - Sword of the gods CLAYMORE - Against all odds CLAYMORE - To holy steel we pray CLAYMORE - Every enemy to slay Dominus belli, Imperator ferri, Magister proelii Inducite nos ad victoria! Obey to your Warlord, Follow me into the might! Together, united, we are strong, steel is by our side!
