Death Before Dishonor
Carnival of Fear There's a dead end street on the horizon Where the sun sets and fades to black Is this our final hour And do we have the power To attack, to attack Do we understand that the end is near And the life we live is just a carnival of fear Can you feel the pain It's the torment of the sacred rite We must fight to persevere The master reappears From the light It's a carnival of fear (repeat)

You see the trap door Leading at the top of the stairs But only it's your mind's deeper horror At the touch the warning beneath Descends to your unknown louder key Journey to the tombs of madness Unknown, lost in your soul Journey to the tombs of madness Drifting farther and farther away Incantations in your mind Open upon your life The memory lives on But seems only half understood Then you try to destroy what brought You out of your vast forgotten space Journey to the tombs of madness Unknown, lost in your soul Journey to the tombs of madness Drifting farther and farther away Are you brought down from your forbidden past? Resurrected by a dark evil? Or is it just a lurking fear Of what may hold your future? You see the light of the ebony cross As it shines down upon your soul As your life burns down into the flames of fire The bitter flames burn as your life Goes into a deeper eternal fire Journey to the tombs of madness Unknown, lost in your soul Journey to the tombs of madness Drifting farther and farther away

Heart of the Damned The blood on our hands Given to one Sacrificed his soul he had no control The deed must be done His betrayal of the light Was the ultimate sin But do we know what lies within The heart of the damned (repeat) Cast down to the pit of flames So now nothing remains Of the heart of the damned Was he a victim Of a point in time A desperate man he didn't understand The truth had passed him by Eternal damnation Just sentence for his crime What evil possessed him What did he feel inside The heart of the damned Why do you curse me Master, my heart's in flames Now I burn in hell, for all of you

We all live to die in our own fantasy No place to hide it’s your destiny Keep your dignity never lose your soul Your honor can’t be controlled There’s a blessing in the sky, that’ll make you free So don’t lose sight of the dream Death before dishonor Living a lie ain’t life at all Just a masquerade before the fall Take a look at the way you are Take a look through the eyes of death Did you go the right way Were you twisted into blasphemy Did I hear you say… Death before dishonor

Known It's real to him he feels it inside It's known to him as he takes it upon himself It's his world that seems so unreal Will he and this world ever have peace Is it known or unknown Why can't the world be free We see this hate Why can't eternal love be the answer to me Just like a love. I once knew Like him, I thought she was true She was there, so was he When she left she's still there, so is he So if you find it known in either way Hold on, it grows stronger every day Chorus Chorus

Bed of Nails I am the chosen one So this torment I must face To see those I love Abandon me in disgrace It was prophecy And it was meant to be Now I accept my plight To die for the light My wounds and the blood that I've shed They just can't compare To the pain that I feel for the souls that are lost Now I die in despair You damned fools You're murdering the most high This bed of nails The cross on which I die Hate, fear, jealousy, is killing me Crucify him, crucify him A bed of nails Repeat

Masque (of the Read Death) And so they acknowledged The presence of the red death He had come like a thief in the night And one by one They dropped the revelers in their blood Each died in their despairing posture The light of the ebony clock went out with the dead And the flames of the tripods expired Darkness and decay and the red death Held illimitable dominion over all
