The End Is Nigh

Born from the void and still pristine Tranquil, vast and cold See the orb of blue and green When he spake the light shone gold Brought to life, in the image of god In this holy place settled amoung the creatures odd Eve, dear girl, avert thy gaze Claims to love them all his world below Minding not their fall a mirthful show Merriments in the centerpiece Weird things in galore Is this the cradle of the disease that man alone must answer for? Joy and delight, forever ceased Sufferings abloom Eaten alive by the cauldron beast Let the drones ring to the sound of doom

Dark times ahead Thorns deep in my side Earth is turning red Sacrifice for pride Wrongfully accused So many deaths in vain Holy faith abused Have you gone insane? Conjuring the spell Mercury and might I will give you hell I will take your light Don't you look at me With your judging eyes Ere I face the flames I will see you die I will burn forever Torturous endeavour (But...) Hell will not hold me Vengeance you will see Dark times have come Death will become my bride Flesh consumed by fire Soon I'm by his side Now there is but one thing My retribution I will break back through To seek my absolution

On blistered feet Still marching on Hands held in prayer All hope is gone Lash on your back with pure intent Welts on your skin The punishment Raise your whip and flay your flesh Join our congregation True believers come with us In corporeal damnation To feel glory, When sinew is stripped from bone And to feel closer To he who made this our life Embracing the shame Of sins that you've seen It won't go away You are so unclean The pain and the guilt It all seems so sad The penance is just Or deeds gone mad So many lies to bestow upon yourself Smiling through tears and screams with wounds so fresh Guilt ridden, all for nothing, wretched still Mortification of the sinful flesh

No matter at birth Born peasant or king You will meet your end In time they will sing The young child of man Immortally strong Shining vividly But will it be long? The lifeglass of all It can't be unturned Everlasting prime Will only be yearned And before long you will start to decline And age takes its toll Now heed, (and) fall in line Inhale So deep Breathe in The life You cling to desperately Anguish building up inside you Trying so hard to be strong Darkness lifting - Eyes are clearer Feeling lighter - Marching on Inhale So deep Breathe in Exhale The life you hold so dear

Welcome to the show of all shows Front row seats for the murder of crows Draw the curtain, start the play! The cast is ready, join the fray Dead man walking, trumpets blare Death rides by on his bony mare Triumph is certain in the mind's eye Truth hides under limbs piled high The machine of war plows on Neverending it's to far gone Audience gasping, horrified screams Tears running down in endless streams Humanity's lost, eclipsed by war Apocalypse knocking on your front door

Passing by closed doors No sounds but crying These are our chores Accompanying the dying Dressed in black we are Pestilence our vanguard Truly bizarre Our sanity's beyond scarred Rods and beaks, our only shield Funeral pyres light our was Death reaps this forsaken field Then sows only dismay Hear the devils cheers Everyone's doomed in this trial No need to waste your tears You'll join them in a while Heavenly decree Holocaust divine Anno Domini MCCCXLIX

Venturing into the unknown (Here be monsters) The waves crash and the cold wind roars Windows-to-be they cry and moan (Here be monsters) Set sail for far and distant shores Unknown shapes Surfacing From the abyss Tentacles Reaching out Sea serpents hiss All men's got their own holy grail (Here be monsters) Low born or noble, cursed or blessed The reaper's chosen won't prevail (Here be monsters) Six hundred feet below they rest Sinking Slowly No one Will know their fate Passing the point of no return (Here be monsters) Dreams crushed by the weight of the seas Lanterns by night so lonely burn (Here be monsters) No way home for these absentees Sinking Slowly No one Will know their fate Sleeping Soundly Anchors Upon their graves Fettered by cold were my feet, bound by frost in cold clasps, where then cares seethed hot about my heart - a hunger tears from within this sea-weary soul. This man does not know for whom on land it turn out most favourably, how I, wretched and sorrowful, one the ice-cold sea dwelt for a winter in the paths of exile, bereft of friendly kinsmen, hung about with icicles; hail flew in showers. There I heard nothing but the roaring sea, the ice-cold wave. The shadows of night darkened...
