Bring me the steel And bring me the fire Annoint the blade Raise the heat higher Procession of rats Halos of gnats Goat heads, angel wings Struggling mass of filthy things Unending funeral Day in and day out Torment eternal Pounded by the blows of doubt The suffering is hidden Eyes won't see the burning An icy realm forbidden The fires of Hell are churning Ice and fire Frozen hail, evil liar Ascend the stairs to the stars Freeze to death upon the barbs Ice and fire Burning rain, earthly desire Descend the steps into the pain Disintegrate within the flames Ice and fire Entombed in darkness This is your prison Slow execution The axe is risen Snakes with two heads Twisting limbs of red Satanic regions Unholy allegiance Unending funeral Day in and day out Torment eternal Pounded by the blows of doubt The suffering's hidden Eyes won't see the burning An icy realm forbidden The fires of Hell are churning Ice and fire Frozen hail, evil liar Ascend the stairs to the stars Freeze to death on the barbs Ice and fire Burning rain, earthly desire Descend the steps into the pain Disintegrate within the flames Ice and fire

This is the centre of space The centre of time, this place All encompassing all of everything And even every corner of nothing The convergence of every world Universes entwined and swirled Spreading out from a single being Expanding onward since the beginning This is the cosmic graveyard Rows of graves backward and forward An unending galactic cemetery This is their universal ossuary ANTITHEIST - DEATH OF EVERY GOD ANTITHEIST - ALL BELOW, ABOVE THEY DO NOT EXIST - GONE IN A COSMIC BLINK ANTITHEIST - YOUR GODS ARE ALL EXTINCT The chains of your mortality Holding you against this fantasy The guilt you feel inside A thousand answers you will never find Ever since man's own inception Locked inside their own deception Thousands of years have passed you by Thousands of gods haved dimmed and died This is the cosmic graveyard Rows of graves backward and forward An unending galactic cemetery This is their universal ossuary ANTITHEIST - DEATH OF EVERY GOD ANTITHEIST - ALL BELOW, ABOVE THEY DO NOT EXIST - GONE IN A COSMIC BLINK ANTITHEIST - YOUR GODS ARE ALL EXTINCT

Discord! Discord is mounting fast Harmony can never last Melody is a twisted din When the suffering sets in And the people dying slow Just a few more years to go Marginalized and left to rot Not enough food and lice filled cots The harmony is shattered Humanity left battered The melodies are broken Humankind's demise unspoken Discord seeps in like a cancer There is one simple answer Stand up against the fuckers Reverse their bullshit and make them suffer DISCORD Poverty is all around us Annihilation of the NHS LGBT forced into silence Minorities forced into violence And meanwhile the great injustice The rich getting richer by exploiting us With our bare hands we build their homes The music now a dull flat tone The harmony is shattered Humanity left battered The melodies are broken Humankind's demise unspoken Discord seeps in like a cancer There is one simple answer Stand up against the fuckers Reverse their bullshit and make them suffer DISCORD

Blue skies in your eyes White sun way up high Green leaves on the heath Nazarene impaled beneath Green trees surround me White moon rising soon you'll see Red blood on my sword Your impaled mythological lord Defiantly against Christianity Defiantly against Christianity Leave a world that you can't see And enter one you can believe

Eyes as wet as the skies This cold rain never dries Blood as black as the night Does not shine within the light No more colour No more light Only darkness Only night No more beauty No more life Only ebon Only strife My world is dark outside me A land where colour's gone My soul is dark inside me It's never dusk nor dawn The sky is black above me The blue's not coming back My heart is cracked within me I'm deep within the black Sighs as deep as the earth This old wound always hurts Thoughts as black as the night Do not summon the sight No more colour No more light Only darkness Only night No more beauty No more life Only ebon Only strife My world is dark outside me A land where colour's gone My soul is dark inside me It's never dusk nor dawn The sky is black above me The blue's not coming back My heart is cracked within me I'm deep within the black

Locked away in the vaults Computers made from human brains A vast network overground Invisible connections make us slaves Batteries powered by our sun Sealed within our primate skulls You and I power their machines They guide our evolution, then we're culled You can see them Everywhere In the shadows So beware Hiding in darkness Watching near and far Dressed to kill We'll tell you who they are... They always wear black As old as the Earth A timeless brotherhood Reshaping the land Oceans once lied, mountains once stood Sharply dressed men and birds Black shades hide their scheming eyes With a single flick of the wrist The cigarette's flying... Now you die! You can see them Everywhere In the shadows So beware Hiding in darkness Watching near and far Dressed to kill We'll tell you who they are... They always wear black

The sea air cold and wet World War II, 1939 To crush the Axis threat Six years sorrow, 1945 The Atlantic was a battleground The RCN and Royal Navy Sail to see the Nazis drowned Our ships ablaze upon the sea The sea was blue The days were blue The blood was red The flames were red The oil was black The nights were black The dead were gone Not coming back The Kriegsmarine sent their ships To fight the Allied fleets Their powers soon eclipsed Our forces had them beat Off the coast of Newfoundland To the ice of the North Sea Wreckage beached upon the sand And bodies lost to the hungry deep The sea was blue The days were blue The blood was red The flames were red The oil was black The nights were black The dead were gone Not coming back

The sky opens above me The clouds now give birth It's not water that falls Upon the sullen Earth With a rancid roar it rains A brownish semifluid mass Unholy and evil storm Shit rains from angelic ass As it rains around me I cry tears of shit As chyme rains around me So long we've prayed for this Where chyme forever rains Where chyme forever rains

Open up your eyes To today's sun rise All that you will find Is that you've gone blind Staring at the sun Staring at the sun Hope I find someone Staring at the sun

Mors larua "Then Saul said to his armorbearer, 'Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised men come and thrust me through and abuse me.' But his armorbearer would not, for he was greatly afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword and fell on it. And when his armorbearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword, and died with him." — Samuel 31:1-5, NKJV MORS LARUA Weaving shadows and nightmares Into a tapestry of obsidian Tying the noose of self-sacrifice Around the throat of religion I am messiah supreme Born from my own suffering No one's father, someone's son Nailed to personal crucifixion And with a crown of knives Worn upon my brow This blade in my hand I am backstabbed somehow Martyr to my own suicide Dead eyes cast wide Black clouds drain This sullen and heavy rain Self-crowned king Where no angels sing A kingdom that has died This realm of suicide SUICIDE MESSIAH SUICIDE MESSIAH Trudging towards the entrance To annihilation On towards The Gates of Depression Ego sum Mors Larua Ego sum Mors Larua Self-crowned king Where no angels sing A kingdom that has died This realm of suicide SUICIDE MESSIAH SUICIDE MESSIAH I am the Death Mask

My princess on her knees No, not a princess, she's a queen A diamond crown upon her brow I love her, but I know I'll die somehow Her mouth is like a fucking furnace Caught in the grip of her holy highness I can't take this anymore My life is ended by this princess whore The heat of her hungry mouth Draining my raging spirit out Writhing upon her blazing tongue My eyes roll back, my soul is numb Forget my name, forget this place My hands trembling on her beautiful face I feel my body start to roast My dying spirit sucked down her throat This is all I'm good for This is what I mean to her My soul is what she needs My life spirals down the throat of greed Her tongue is like a blade of fire Her tongue impales like hot desire My soul is sucked down her burning throat My life is dragged across infernal coals SOUL SWALLOWER ENSLAVED TO HER SUCKING DOWN MY SPIRIT I WILL NOT LIVE THROUGH THIS SOUL SWALLOWER SUCKING AS SHE PURRS DRINKING DOWN MY LIFE I WILL DIE TONIGHT And her teeth graze on my aura My eyes blinded by a hellish aurora I thrash as my skin turns to liquid She's licking her lips, I finish so quick My bones now turned to ash My life extinguished in a flash I am destroyed in a fit of lust And my soul burns to cinders in her guts This is all I'm good for This is what I mean to her My soul is what she needs My life spirals down the throat of greed Her tongue is like a blade of fire Her tongue impales like hot desire My soul is sucked down her burning throat My life is dragged across infernal coals SOUL SWALLOWER ENSLAVED TO HER SUCKING DOWN MY SPIRIT I WILL NOT LIVE THROUGH THIS SOUL SWALLOWER SUCKING AS SHE PURRS DRINKING DOWN MY LIFE I WILL DIE TONIGHT SOUL SWALLOWER
