Sometimes the voices can't be hushed They force me to remember all the pain and death I've pushed So many times I've catered for my lustful need I finished sobbing then looked back - an angel lies in demon seed In ecstasy reborn Oh those crossed out eyes on beauty torn After midnight, calling of the small hours My inner peace is sacrificed to bloody truth At least it seems that this it what it means 'Cause thе need for fucking absolution justifies the means A simplе plan that's fantasized by man In all the crudest ways I beg and long for harmony, in vain It feels like ages since those times I can't bear it anymore, the cries to answer for my crimes In all the madness just a bit of clarity prevails I hurl myself, up the stairs, to even out Justice's scales To the tower's top I creep The garret window my destination may the final leap grant peaceful sleep After midnight, calling of the small hours My inner peace is sacrificed to bloody truth At least it seems that this it what it means 'Cause the need for fucking absolution justifies the means A simple plan that's fantasized by man In all the crudest ways I beg and long for harmony, in vain I tiptoe shaking to the glass And take a look how far down till I kiss the devil's arse I undress, in distress to serve this final mess No self-flagellation will suffice, it's blood for blood and nothing less I down a poisoned chalice, slit my wirsts, once and for all! Yank open the window, step to the ledge and plunge into my saving fall! I wake up, soaked in sweat, my heart still pounding in despair I cough and vomit, drenched in tears, still feeling the grip of this nightmare! But as I look around, I see them gathered, all white and pale With empty eyes and open mouths they grasp at me to end my tale!

Wailing voices, failing cries! Canto twisting eerie sighs! Unreal cacophony of wisdom from the Otherside With hands in clasp we sat entranced, dismayed, dead-eyed We convened in a place of tragedy The deserted mansion on forsaken soil As seekers of arcane knowledge, we beseech the spirits In answer they chanted, whispered, howled and screamed Beset us with foolish whims and ghoulish dreams As we sat in seance our calls were answered manifold I heard my name called, softly, as if from behind surrounding walls I felt my mind wander, could not see my body anymore Just the hallways around me, and then I found the unlocked door I entered a vision of pain and sorrow. Of betrayal and lies Of broken faith. Of violence and horror. Where all good had died Images flashing! The taste of cold ash And the slithering, tentacles of madness lashing out! A dire fate unveiled A scene of hope that failed In long gone days of yore, arrogance bred vile fallacy A brotherly bond before, turned to treacherous jealousy A vision of blood and gore, murder spread its shadow on A toppled chair on the floor. And dangling feet Woken startled, broken spell Nightmares cast back down to hell! But what the hell is this? Streaks of blood everywhere! Alone I'm left, my mind bereft of sanity, in this cursed lair In panic I storm outside the manor house. The whereabouts of them unknown An unnatural twilight! And all the others gone An abysmal, sickening sight! Tombstones as far as the eye can see I mouth a harrowing cry. But sound there is none My hands are scarlet-stained too... I stumble through this vast and ghastly graveyard And find a set of freshly hewn stones With names on them I know too well... Right next to them, a heap of earth, a shallow grave, still undisturbed No epitaph reveals the name... Cold shivers down my spine! On knees I toil to excavate. A rope 'round the neck of the buried late But the countenance arrests my heart! His face... his face is mine!

Lashed by the waves through the heart of the storm The shore only vaguely in sight The beam of the beacon radiantly warns Of cliffs lurking nigh For the ship to pass by But the rain distorted vision leads the freighter awry In the thickening fog, a shadow takes form Cleaving the wafts, a monstrous figurehead appears A vessel spewed out from the guts of Hell With artillery full ablaze it draws deadly near The freighter's crew feels thе grip of doom closing, all too well The undead marinеrs appear! Warlike howls on deck! Waving jagged blades in bony fists, coming for their neck "Oh father have mercy, let us be spared!" A dead scared young sailors desperate prayer Through the smoke and the fog, the cannons blast forth Wood burst to shreds, the cargo ship’s sails ablaze Awaiting the onset of the frothing horde The victimized crew has seen the last of their days Grapnels thrown, the stygian fiends leap on board Slowly A commanding gait The captain comes forth Death incarnate! The battle cries quite down The commander's face, a frown In its black hollows lies A set of haunting human eyes Uniformed, keenly dressed A gaping hole in his chest A simple gesture of his hand Resumes the onslaught of the Damned! "Oh father have mercy, let us be spared!" The young sailor, fatally wounded, he stares The undead finishing blow inbound! Grappling hooks on deck! The lad sees the deathless captains eyes, coming for their neck A glimpse into the dead man's past, a memory still warm He’d left his heart with the lighthouse keeper's daughter, and sailed into the storm His ship and life claimed by the sea, never to return again! Fire amidst the crashing waves - his lure, his bane! The skeletal raiders board their prey aloud Swords are singing, men are screaming, death is wandering about Amidst all the fighting and dying the demon captain turns To a shine, horrifying, among the burning planks The young seaman's corpse splayed on the broken deck A heart-shaped pendant, gleaming from the fire, around his broken neck His features so familiar, even in this lifeless state Recognition strikes the fell-commander way too late The locket on the dead boys chest, more than a lucky charm A gift from an aching mother, to save her child from harm The tragedy sealed by a wail sounding cross the watery plains And only endless damnation remains

The prize of pushing past what no one ever dared An unforgiving, horrifying bestial glare Bleeding! Panting! He feels his life expire Chased through the night by their threatening cries Fleeing! Panicked! Tearing thorns and briers Impenetrable like the overcast skies Out of the evening gloom he came into the village No one knew his name or his face The townsfolk stared and whispered 'bout the stranger's image What he was up to at this time in this place Blood-caked claws and dripping fangs were bared... Well later that night, in a tavern rank of piss and drink All the inebriated sots avoided him But then he set his sight on a buxom wench, whose luring wink Led him to the back room, where she bestrode him with an eager grin She rode him sore, behind closed doors His grip was tight, he felt his cravings rise She gave him more, on all her fours Delighted he went on with burning zest in his eyes Groaning, moaning, full of crude desire She scratched and bit him bloody, kindling his lust Screaming, longing, she set his loins on fire Then things went horribly wrong in ways they never must Bleeding! Panting! He feels his life expire Chased through the night by their threatening cries! Fleeing! Panicked! Tearing thorns and briers Impenetrable like the overcast skies! Blood-caked claws and dripping fangs were bared... The prize of pushing past what no one ever dared An unforgiving, horrifying bestial glare Bleeding! Panting! Spent and deadly tired He ends his flight despite their threatening cries! Kneeling! Panicked! Tattered by thorns and briers He looks in terror to the shifting skies! The roaming clouds unveil the moon... Worn out, cornered, lost is all hope Eventually he reached the end of his rope He barely fled alive as he indulged her whim And that inhuman bitch, sneeringly turned on him Shadows in the woods, the raging villagers nearing Bloodlust in their gaze! The hunters step into the clearing "Oh holy Luna, full ablaze!" One by one, howling, they shed their human skin! With bared fangs and claws alike they tear into him! The trespasser had seen it all and so his fate was doomed His journey ended savagely, under the full moon Blood-spattered thicket. Again the night was still And kept was the secret of Lupusville

War and terror have raped these lands! Through the turmoil, he's on the run with blood on his hands With heavy limbs he sneaks down hidden trails When did his flight begin? His memory fails... With unfirm step by step he toils his way back home A piercing pain, searing deep inside Unbearable the longing for his love and their only child A dim but fainting glimmer of hope has kept him marching on It feeds the furnace, it keeps it burning Death has paved his way Through war-marred lands Past piles of skull and bone Just as the wind, he hears them rise From deep bеlow, the aching sighs The fallen calling! Thеir claim appalling Creeping crawling death is all there’s left for him! But then his weary eyes start to recognize He made it back home! The searing pain, slowly moves aside Joy abounds! Soon he'll be with his love and their only child The once fainting glimmer of hope, now a raging fire! Euphoria ignited! They will be reunited A shade of mocking doubt, settles on his brow Three figures in the distance right in front of the homestead Who is that man? What's his business on his land? A childhood mate of his with his wife and child in bliss How long was he gone? Something is truly amiss Staggering, he walks towards them And when they suddenly turn their heads towards him He sees their faces, with a smile he raises his arms Longing for their warm embraces Horror! Dismay! Dread in their eyes as they back away Screams in fear as if death came by! They turn and run, they flee inside They shut the door and lock it tight With shattered heart and crumbling will he stumbles to the window sill He steals a look inside to beg them for admission But the reflection in the pane Reveals the truth, drives him insane The fallen calling! His face appalling! Creeping crawling worms had gnawed the flesh off his skull! And then his eerie eyes start to recognize He’s been long gone!

A frightful night, even spiteful night Where footsteps hurry fretfully on grounds where the lifeless lie "Be quiet! Lest we attract attention of the keeper's eyes!" Two figures hunching low, digging through the soil Of the cemetery. In grim pursuit, uncovering it's spoils Through mud and rotting wood, the stench of cold demise For silver studs or golden teeth for their morbid enterprise A sudden noise, a sullen voice In shock they hear it beg Believe me Please help me I did not mean to touch then tear apart A grate on a grave! As if to keep their likes away But who pled to them so miserably? And left their faculties in disarray... Shaken to the bone they peek To find a tomb, quite new and neat Richly adorned as if to speak "Come hither! Take whither!" Gathering their senses, fueled by curiosity Not even solid metal bars diminish their greed And they dismantle it A sudden noise, a sullen voice Again they hear it beg Release me Set me free I did not mean to maim and eat the heart Someone's buried here, alive! How can it be? Where they revived? Craving riches, wit-deprived they dig deeper and deeper Shovels hitting solid stone, black marble coffin, like charcoaled bone Can barely move the lid alone, the scent of death grows sweeter Air... Light... Moon... Night... Warmth... Blood... Taste... FLESH! Madness grips them, stops the heart The lid cracks open, breaks apart Screaming, scrambling, up they start Out of this hellish hole But something rises from the pit Hunger and hate, so full of it Bone breaking snap, a fatal hit Another hearty meal is served A frightful night, even spiteful night Where corpses lie with open ribs on grounds were the undead rise "ARISE! The lord of all unliving things commands you back to life! "ALIVE! Yes, we return to take the world by black surprise!"
