St. Barbara's Light
04:39
|
|||
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

Dream of Life
05:28
|
|||
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!

The Devil and her Sins
04:09
|
|||
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!

Ghost in a Shell
05:57
|
|||
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

Arise of the Mammon
04:20
|
|||
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!

Inferno
05:28
|
|||
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

Voices
03:51

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

Strigoii Vii
03:56
|
|||
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

Time runs slowly
04:30
|
|||
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

We rule the Night
05:05
|
|||
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!

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!
