Metathronon 03:30
I am the one for perceiving the soul I am the most high Protecting the realms of all of the earth come here when you die Chorus: Producing a new race from dust reducing the fallen to ash Seven pillars of unholy wings tremble before me in fear glowing white eyes too see through your soul the hour of doom draws near Holding the blueprint for all creation governing all of life creator/destroyer master dethroner he who brings light

Cause and effect Saviors in their own minds Violence on violence Working to a mad extreme We have our next war The neo-men and sons of Allah One that he powers that be United in chaos Will make it critical to fight for Spreading war worldwide An enemy that never existed Leadings us to die A threat that we created In a tied of our own blood Fighting to be gods chosen cause Freedom rung anew Innocence in the crossfire Deception is the rule Reaching for a phantom conclusion Drag us all into a bloodstained labyrinth A screen of values in place Total revolution An invisible threat at the door Ignore the consequence Political turmoil domestic chaos All roads lead to tyranny Echoes of a lunatic A fanatic’s mentality Filling an ocean of desperate ears Chorus: Locked in a radical schism Leaving the world behind Contrast in perception Foundations untwine Don’t trust reality A reckoning is nigh Sacrifice the ethos For the flag and god almighty Weakness to destroy Strength to employ Freedom and revolution Epidemic corruption American justice for Arab blood Islamic glory with American lives They see a worldwide condition An apocalyptic infection Failed revolutions Utopian deaths A grave in Manhattan The scars of Afghanistan A chokehold on the earth Diabolic strategy To write the pages of history

I'm here to take your pain away it is my only calling inject relief into your veins the guide to the other side On a morbid mission driven by insane conviction apply twisted medicine begin this morbid repetition Take my hand of mercy out of this shell of life the cold effect of my empathy take my hand of mercy you have no choice the self appointed reaper one body after another the calculated murder An arsenic prescription the hidden poison Injected and ingested suffocated in their beds an act of grace in my head Take my hand of mercy out of this shell of life the cold effect of my empathy take my hand of mercy you have no choice Hiding in the system for years Cyanide flowing free Praying on the weak and sick healing with a tainted medicine Driven by untold urges with so many bodies left behind I'm a man of compassion compulsively playing god Take my hand of mercy out of this shell of life the cold effect of my empathy take my hand of mercy you have no choice

Green inferno Beyond the modern world Primitive Destination Exploitation to be sold Nothing is impossible No act of cruelty Obscene spectacle Blatant inhumanity On a journey to find sensation With savage intent Relentless violation, unforgivable transgression No one leaves the same, swelling bloodstains Bodies on their spikes Rotting with the insects Burial in a drooling mouth Taste a primal conquest Castrated decapitated Digested in the arms of nature Ripped to bloody shreds Scream with your final breath On a journey to find sensation With savage intent Mindless denigration, cultural invasion No one leaves the same, terror burned in the brain Society forgotten Stepping back in time A hunger for the profane Sacrifices will be made In arrogance they kill In agony they die Contest of malice The savage way and the savage mind On a journey to find sensation With savage intent Modern abomination, ruthless elimination No one leaves the same, echoes of pain

Binary Swipe 03:40
I can no longer function inside these walls Fuelled by your corruption my sanity takes its toll Chorus: Dead in a house of ashes brains on autopilot Binary Swipe lack of life out to buy no reason why onto death to the last breath Gone is my perception of time going full stride a figure now surrounds me trust me you'll be fine I can no longer function inside these walls A swipe of ones and zeros to make you feel absolved

It came from the earth to be bestowed upon mankind teteahydracannibinal it is the only way Chorus: Will you have the genius to grow or shall you be left behind in the sour diesel ride A monolithic terror standing 100 feet tall devour all in its path rise the end epic failure of genius watch oh so closely breed the final strain

July 1943 Operation Citadel On the fields of the eastern front A major German offence Waiting and then striking east again Pincer movement North and South Surround the Kursk salient Send the panzers and infantry through Destroy all Soviet resistance Ignite the fire of the carnage beacon The world is lost in the blaze Onward through the smoke and dust The mechanized ranks are thrust Roar of guns endless Grind of treads relentless Behind miles of trenches wires and mines The red army prepares and waits Artillery awakens hell in the dawn of July 5th Army Groups 5 and 9, Assault Zhukov's lines Caught in a fortified web. Bleeding out over the days. Attrition back and forth. Fighting for all their worth. Ignite the fire of the carnage beacon The world is lost in the blaze Onward through the smoke and dust The mechanized ranks are thrust Roar of guns endless Grind of treads relentless At Prokhorovka A massive armored clash Black smoke fills the sky No sight of a winning side Emotionless weapons, the world at war The burning carcasses of iron beasts Shock action, Steel melee Ignite the fire of the carnage beacon The world is lost in the blaze Onward through the smoke and dust The mechanized ranks are thrust Roar of guns endless Grind of treads relentless After 8 days of fighting. The offence has been spent Tanks by the thousands. Lie wasted in the fields. Thousands dead in a doomed gamble The motherland has again endued The Reich's downfall has begun

On the pacific ocean during the second world war The Allies land in the Philippines The last stand of the Japanese Imperial Navy, all forces committed Operation Sho-1, their massive plan To smash the invading fleet Fatal Mission To meet their honor in death Roaring Guns Ships ignited in flames Their war Is over Sinking to the ocean depths Commanded By Fate Up the Surigao Straight The American Admiral Oldendorf Must defend the invasion force. With 6 battleships, savaged from Pearl Harbor Low on ammo with no air cover The ships begin patrols, Waiting for their enemy. Fatal Mission To meet their honor in death Roaring Guns Ships ignited in flames Their war Is over Sinking to the ocean depths Commanded By Fate Up the Surigao Straight Counting on divine assistance to their cause The Imperial navy sails on in the dead of night Torpedo runs by PT Boats and Destroyers Sink the battleship Fuso spotlights search for targets, radar screens glowing bright onward they press exchanging fire on dark waters, At the edge of Leyte Gulf The T is crossed, on the Allied battle line All guns brought to bear, full broadside firing Erupting on the ocean they rip the night apart Rails of lethal light, the shells collide Men vaporized on impact An era on the sea has ended The overpowered Admiral Nishimura could not retreat Down with his flagship dead in defeat Burning outlines of their vessels Oil and bodies filling the ocean Fatal Mission To meet their honor in death Roaring Guns Ships ignited in flames Their war Is over Sinking to the ocean depths Commanded By Fate Up the Surigao Straight

Perfect Aura 05:05
To keep away all of the fear All trust is born blind and fanaticism grows fast. My eyes have seen the madness and the coming of our fall Deception, deception, halleluiah! all truths are marching on. Walking graves in lock step enamored with a persona Death squad with a school yard crush As Above As Below As Before As it Will We cannot think when they speak We don't want to ruin the dream Emotion in a chokehold Strike the doubt away kid its time to "hope" again National figure with a ringer Surrounded with a perfect aura Streaming live and worldwide high definition interpretation controlling the world with a face neutralize your suspicion between celebrity and reality needing a mountain of salt to believe it all again. As Above As Below As Before As it Will We hear what we want to hear Emotion in a chokehold Strike the doubt away kid Its time to "hope" again National figure with a ringer Surrounded with a perfect aura Living beyond all contempt They rule with less Screaming crowds and confetti clouds full press obedience on podiums and stages nailing slogans to your mind from political movements to product lines As Above As Below As Before As it Will Adonis, Venus Put a spin on Narcissus Emotion in a chokehold Strike the doubt away kid its time to "hope" again National figure with a ringer Surrounded with a perfect aura

Psychoactive chemical, pervasive in nature Dimethyltryptamine South American origins Indescribable visual hallucinations The most potent psychedelic on earth Frozen Mimosa Hostillis Placed in a water vinegar solution Mixed with Sodium Hydroxide Conversion of the Alkaloids to salts Filtered, measured then soluble Signature of a synthetic smell The edge of the human experience End of time, end of space The only secretion, removes reality You cannot endure this A yellow crystalline form A homemade portal to see the immortal Create the next evolution Or a fool's illusion Serve yourself to an unbelievable power animated feelings of a spoken reality senses placed in limbo While you change impossibility But it could all be simple insanity Oral application Enhanced by Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors Strong dose over 30 milligrams Preceded by a 24 hour fast Beware of volatile circumstance Full intoxication Effective in seconds with frightening strength Physiological Russian roulette The business mans trip Spiritual or sacrificial The edge of the human experience End of time, end of space The only secretion, removes reality You cannot endure this Drastic symptoms of the drug Muscle spasms, psychotic upheaval Full dilation of the pupils Increase in blood pressure Chance of madness to manifest Believed to show the face of god With neo chemical mechanisms A dream of discarnate entities and creatures Sacrament of the Santo Daime Can be transformed into poison The edge of the human experience End of time, end of space The only secretion, removes reality You cannot endure this

Under cruel gods and frozen skies Ancient terrors prepare to strike Keeping our watch for the long night Where malevolent winds blow The truth is that winter has returned While wars destroy the realm Our massive barrier of blood and ice Built to last for all time Knights, heroes and lords With no wives or lovers Rapists, thieves and traitors No longer who they were Oaths taken before all gods No crowns, titles or thrones A solemn duty, defend the realm Only in death may your watch end. Chorus Cloaks of black with binding words Unbreakable for life This is our fate that we may serve To die at the wall. Our ranks have thinned, our task is great But in this frozen waste we stand Under the crumbling towers of castle black Guarding the edge of our land To our people our deaths be gifts None will morn our lives Tales we take to our forgotten graves Where the stranger waits for us Chorus Cloaks of black with binding words Unbreakable for life This is our fate that we may serve To die at the wall. Wilding raids and a turncoat king Ungodly blizzards ripping our flesh Elements that have killed before Hopeless soldiers in an eternal war Out beyond the reach of the seven Evil rises once more Ruthless and inhuman The others, the while walkers Frozen hearts and frozen disgrace Riding in this snowbound waste In a land of wild cries Where no tale of joy may rise 3 blasts of the horn Bloody fields and flashing blades Arrows fly and men scream Dead again by dragon glass and valerian steel They from parts beyond us The embers in their eyes With the fires of seven hells Glowing blades in cold grips Dark omens arrive on dark wings Under the snow old legends stir again We wait for what trials the gods bring The song of Ice and Fire plays on From Eastwatch by the Sea To the Shadow Tower On the border of westeros Nights Watch, Swords in the dark Chorus Cloaks of black with binding words Unbreakable for life This is our fate that we may serve To die at the wall.
