Nightmare – angels playing the dirge Fire kills the earth Oceans turn into blood Wormwood’s fall Mankind – falls into despair Darkness answers their prayers Black smoke filling the air Abaddon strikes Locusts and plagues are unleashed Man-faced demonic beasts The age of chastisement begins for all those who could not be cleansed Chorus: Seven Trumpets Play for the damned Seven Trumpets Armies – dissipating the plague Heaven’s deadly embrace Sinners facing their fate Genocide Warning – Thunder utters its wisdom Messengers of the kingdom Preaching among the bedlam Blood will flow The two prophets killed by the beast Finally stand on their feet Their enemies tremble in fear Aware that their end is near Chorus The kingdom of G-d will settle on Earth The dragon awaits for the holy child's birth Heaven will bleed the echoes of war Cast out by Michael he'll come back for more... WAR! The snake will emerge from the sea Proclaiming its authorithy With soldiers all over the Earth Professing that heaven shall burn Chorus

You can still hear their screams inside your head A morbid gift of all the lives you took without regret A sudden change, strange events you can’t explain They’re back somehow, hungry for revenge Chorus: Forever haunted – By the souls you’ve damned Forever haunted – Ice cold revenge Forever haunted – Pay for your debts Forever haunted – Until you’re dead A deviant sex life, only satisfied When you see the light fading from their eyes So many victims, buried, nameless, left to rot Their souls won’t rest until they make you stop Chorus You’ve lost control of your own game Time for the predator to become the prey Justice is calling from beyond the grave Sooner or later your sins will be paid Your deepest nightmares finally came to life You cannot escape them, there’s no place to hide Just turn yourself in, give up and confess your crimes Or maybe kill yourself and meet them in the afterlife Chorus

You preach moral lessons to braindead hordes Your hate speech incites their desire for blood Promoting yourself as a holy man But deep down you know that your soul is damned DAMNATION... DAMNATION Chorus: Phony Smiles, Empty Words Your true thoughts no one has ever heard The saviour role, you play it well Don’t fool me... Cos one day I’ll see you in hell Salvation’s a gift for the chosen few Excluding the ones who cannot buy “G-d’s will” They do as you say but don’t do what you do Cos you are the shepherd, your sins are excused SALVATION...SALVATION Chorus

Immersed in the ancient teachings Gateways beyond flesh and blood A once forbidden type of knowledge Is unveiled to be learned All those who seek, one day shall see The place where wisdom dwells with lunacy Infinite knowledge, endless gifts Mind over matter paradigm shift Careful What you wish for Beware With the line that you’ve just crossed Into the occult! Too many answers for one question Riddles of the afterlife Dogmas kept us from the whole truth Blurring the universal signs Disciplined by fear and torture No room for curiosity No institutions will be needed When the last of us break free All those who seek, one day shall see The place where wisdom dwells with lunacy Infinite knowledge, endless gifts Mind over matter paradigm shift Careful What you wish for Beware With the line that you’ve just crossed Into the occult! Cosmic understanding Breaking barriers of the mind Behold the awakening Set sail to the endless tides Careful What you wish for Beware With the line that you’ve just crossed Into the occult!

Genocide All life on Earth is damned Suicide A tempting way to escape Survival of the fittest World order rearranged Just pack your guns and ammo The dead are on our way Steamrolling through the cities Dead rotting corpses rise An endless path of gore Is all they leave behind Supplies are running low More shelters going down Survivors losing hope Awaiting for their fall Chorus: We’re surrounded by the dead We shoot ‘em and cut off their heads Walls might just keep them out there But we are the walking dead! Living on borrowed time here Stealing the minutes from them Walls might just keep them out there But we are the walking dead! Brutalized Death haunt us day by day Justified The embrace of violence When murder is like breathing We cannot lose our heads Cos we’ve learned that the living Are still the biggest threat Deceiving scared survivors Psychotic leaders rise Omission leads to oppression No longer civilized Communities at war An unforgiving slaughter A chance of future for us Is something worth fighting for Chorus 2x

Twisted catholic conspiracy Formed to get rid of the heretics Public displays of atrocity Strike fear to save Christianity Hidden perversions, forbidden desires Sexual repression adds fuel to the fire Twisted convictions, sadistic delights Murderers under the banner of Christ Chorus: Ashes and blood Sermons and Lies Ashes and blood Impious genocide Holier than thou extortionists Masking the true nature of their deeds True faith subdued by their bloody greed Fed by the loot of their casualties Innocents held by the leash of the Church Tortured in basements and sentenced to burn Scapegoats to fill their deceitful plot Murderers under the banner of God Chorus Fabricated enemy Fiends that no one else could see Infanticide, misogyny Justified with piety Bloodthirsty exegesis Led to a land of plague and feces Serpents in the house of God Spreading venom through its hordes Chorus

The Knife – cuts the flesh Exposing – guts and lungs Frying – My heart in a pan Just to feel the taste of blood Slowly – dosing the anger Trying to remain controlled As the movie inside my head Is starting to unfold Pure hate, concentrated, Cannot set it free Pure hate, concentrated, Burning inside of me There must be a way to vent This never-ending hate I must tame the beast inside Before it swallows me Chorus: Feeding on my hatred – Six, Six, Six! Questioning my reason Face to face with evil – Six, Six, Six! I calm down the demon My mind is shattered Shrinks work in vain Living under tension Voices call my name Vigil – to resist the influence Bars – to lock the doors When sulphur fills the air The serpent will claim my soul Pre chorus Chorus Solo Chorus

The time is now You’ve figured out the puzzle Unveiling a new world Where you’ll feel joy and suffer The boundaries of flesh No longer exist And soon you’ll learn to take this as a gift Hooks and needles pierce your skin and let the blood flow As Leaviathan’s dark angels start to rape your soul Chorus: So much flesh Different pleasures You will find Hidden pleasures Demons to some, angels to others Bow down to your new masters No turning back Your soul belongs to hell There is no escape From this eternal cell No good or evil There’s only flesh No longer human Forget your past Hooks and needles pierce your skin and let the blood flow As Leaviathan’s dark angels start to rape your soul Chorus

Unnapeasable nature The root of suffering Cessation of the cycle To finally break free Dukkha Tanha Nirodha Magga Neverending thirst Ignorance of self Temporary joy Cling us all to hell Chorus: Wake up! Open up your eyes! Realize! Life will pass you by...pass you by! A suffering-laden cycle Of life and death Ephemeral convictions Still keep you trapped Dukkha Tanha Nirodha Magga Confinement of cravings Cutting all your ties The utmost understanding Will lead you to the light Chorus A suffering-laden cycle Of life and death Ephemeral convictions Still keep you trapped Dukkha Tanha Nirodha Magga Confinement of cravings Cutting all your ties The utmost understanding Will lead you to the light Chorus Om mani padme hum
