"Ghouls Around the Blade" With chants of ghouls Around the blade Throughout the town The bells have sounded Execute the heretic! We shall not suffer The unrepentant! Hallowed be thy name Our lord and savior Who died upon the cross Then arose from the tomb Blessing all mankind With chants of ghouls Around the blade Throughout the town The bells have sounded Execute the heretic! We shall not suffer The unrepentant! By the grace of God be sent To the place of Flames and torment By decree we slaughter thee Then rejoice in celebration Hallowed be thy name Our lord and savior Who died upon the cross Then arose from the tomb Blessing all mankind With blood to wash the sins Away - resides our loving god In the hearts of men Never to be found Unless you're on your knees Praying to the carcass On the cross Hold the cross! Kiss the corpse! This is the story we're told This is the fable bestowed (Solo) Hold the cross! Kiss the corpse! This is the story we're told This is the fable bestowed (Solo) With chants of ghouls Around the blade Throughout the town The bells have sounded Execute the heretic! We shall not suffer The unrepentant! By the grace of God be sent To the place of Flames and torment By decree we slaughter thee Then rejoice in celebration

"Arise in Thorns" With no purpose With no longing to gain Just a will to power A vital force to expend To serve no master Yet to serve the all Existing just to create An 'ever flowing Nothing I will not conform! I will arise in thorns! Defying the deified! I will arise!!! (Solo) With no purpose With no longing to gain Just a will to power A vital force to expend I will not conform! I will arise in thorns! Defying the deified! I will arise!!! Time heals all flesh Though, builds only scars In the fragile mind - a tangled tapestry The sorrow, the pain, and the suffering Draped in the memories that bleed (Solos) Time heals all flesh Though, builds only scars In the fragile mind - a tangled tapestry The sorrow, the pain, and the suffering Draped in the memories that bleed With no purpose With no longing to gain Just a will to power A vital force to expend To serve no master Yet to serve the all Existing just to create An 'ever flowing Nothing I will not conform! I will arise in thorns! Defying the deified! I will arise!!!

"Blood Bender" Interloper! Unseen until you've multiplied! Fastidious and hideous! You grind and glide until you find Your blood meal! Engorge upon your sustenance! So fast to feed! Excess expelled as excrement! Blood born Blood feast Blood defecation Blood sworn Blood beast Blood incantation Blood drunk Blood drenched Blood excitation Blood bound Blood binge Blood bender! Double-terror Parasite You seek a host Infecting on the outside If ingested By your foe In yourself A larval growth Blood born Blood feast Blood defecation Blood sworn Blood beast Blood incantation Blood drunk Blood drenched Blood excitation Blood bound Blood binge Blood bender! Resistance To chemical solutions Diatomaceous earth Is utilized Six months of egregious Facilitating Still there is scratching With worm segments scattered They squirm! They ripple for prey They die as they try! Becoming desiccated A vestige invested Though, now only destined To be swept away! (Solos) Resistance To chemical solutions Diatomaceous earth Is utilized Six months of egregious Facilitating Still there is scratching With worm segments scattered (Solo) You motherfuckers! Why won't you just go away?! I hate each and every fucking one of you! Surviving - imbibing - while irritating You fucking bastards! Bring on the freeze and low humidity! The only good thing about winter Is seeing your numbers despoiled!

"Severely Severed" It's almost unbearable To be awake within this dream To see the light Consumed in black Beyond the flesh Reptilian fiends Manipulate and separate To overtake and populate They gain control Through mental states Devised within Genetic traits (Repeat) I don't want to be here Among the dying herd Severely severed Their souls extracted All that's left are Hollow shells of woe (Solo) It's almost unbearable To be awake within this dream To see the light Consumed in black Beyond the flesh Reptilian fiends Manipulate and separate To overtake and populate They gain control Through mental states Devised within Genetic traits (Solo)

"Cutthroat Proclivity" Here comes the New wave of Shallow laden performers Heralds of the Fated trends Directing the mindless voters With a cutthroat proclivity! Deem the swill to be divine And shovel the shit To assuage the swine (Solo) Here comes the New wave of Shallow laden performers Heralds of the Fated trends Directing the mindless voters With a cutthroat proclivity! Deem the swill to be divine And shovel the shit To assuage the swine (Solo) Shroud the truth Deny the lie Hold the proof To simplify A chain of fools Exemplifies The weakest link Shall typify The crowning error Of humanity (Solo) Here comes the New wave of Shallow laden performers Heralds of the Fated trends Directing the mindless voters With a cutthroat proclivity! Deem the swill to be divine And shovel the shit To assuage the swine Shroud the truth Deny the lie Hold the proof To simplify A chain of fools Exemplifies The weakest link Shall typify The crowning error Of humanity

"The Ideal Torture" Insolent The wretched herd The faithful preach Temerity The lack of comprehensive Truth Belief instilled Audacity To lie in wait Devotion grows With graves filled Of the decomposed From hymns come Casket lullabies Prayers only mask The ineptitude To praise his name Lord of the flies From wounds The wine profane Relish the hellish The ravishing pain! Partake of the Sanguinary libations! The crimson tonic Stultifies the bane The wrath of the lamb Fleeced and slaughtered As the astrakhan Drained of it's life Then fed to the sheep Asleep they weep While gnashing teeth Counting the blessed Dreams of victory (Solo) Insolent The wretched herd The faithful preach Temerity The lack of comprehensive Truth Belief instilled Audacity To lie in wait Devotion grows

"On Jagged Slopes" High in the mountains On jagged slopes Tribal hunters Wearing skins and bones Danced around their fires Singing prayers to their gods Savage invitations Breathing life into their storms Fashion lightning bolts From spears made out of stone We are warriors Fierce - our fates are blessed! (Solo) Fashion lightning bolts From spears made out of stone We are warriors Fierce - our fates are blessed! (Repeat) A once proud people Slaughtered as they slept Ravaged and ruined By those whom languished In the lavish Strung up and flayed For the whole world to see The clandestine occupation Like the harbor to the tide Salvaged the sacred And gifted its noble race With amnesty (Solo) High in the mountains On jagged slopes Tribal hunters Wearing skins and bones Danced around their fires Singing prayers to their gods Savage invitations Breathing life into their storms

"Segue to Satan" Formless presence Shadows of the night Spirit of the wild Roaming through the sky Prowling in the darkness It beckons the time to loom Ageless silence Echoes of the Sun Shining through eternal Strength beyond creation Prowling in the darkness It beckons the time to loom A savage inclination To dominate its prey Exacting, seething, fortitude (Solos) Formless presence Shadows of the night Spirit of the wild Roaming through the sky Ageless silence Echoes of the Sun Shining through eternal Strength beyond creation (Solo) Prowling in the darkness It beckons the time to loom A savage inclination To dominate its prey Exacting, seething, fortitude

"Where Kali Dwells" Emerging from the labyrinth Well beyond all countenance In the darkness with no light The bounty grows and flows With spite Attracted to the fortress halls The single motivation Is to scale the walls Attach to a patch Within the chasm And quietly hide Between the gorge The tactical maneuver Increasing the sense of Accomplishment Guarantees a time to Assess the mores With revelations held Behind closed doors Overcoming all The obstacles The journey of one Becomes the manifold The story, the myth The admiration Awaiting the day To conceive Lunar cycles Of the she-devils Flickering tongues Invoke the scathing winds No logic To the sprawling forces Just incessant howling (Solo) Like the mysteries of The ocean's tides Here unto imbue The menacing scarlet hue (Solo) Ripped away and falling Cascading through A whirling void The river pours Into the sky Where the red Becomes the horizon (Solo) Walking the tight rope Trying to please Jumping through hoops Of fire Nothing can appease The vengeful wraith Where Kali dwells (Solo) Walking the tight rope Trying to please Jumping through hoops Of fire Nothing can appease The vengeful wraith Where Kali dwells (Solo) Ripped away and falling Cascading through A whirling void The river pours Into the sky Where the red Becomes the horizon
