Hyenas 02:34
Into the chasm, inside the swarm Obey the blood we have shed Who gives a fuck what we have sworn Let’s just destroyed what’s been gained We are made out of pain Still made by ourselves Out of lust and abuse, of terror and truce Singing none of those words I couldn’t wait to pronounce We either pray or play fast And lose with the truth Eradicate, declare more wars And run your heinous campaigns Who gives a fuck what we’ve been taught A guilty mind betrays itself With a steely composure take on new threats We need more jam tomorrow Some brand new crap Tell me what I need to do Tell me where I have to stay And keep your plastic grin While I spit in your thuggish face Give us more pressure Give us more dirt Don’t stop new murders You matter not as love is the law The law
2.
Never again shall I make myself wake up there Not the heart, not the eyes are what leads too far Out of nowhere comes that fear of the brand new day Feeling the same pain That turns out to be a part of me I’m the only liar to myself As time is passing by I cannot turn around I keep on drifting down the fucking stream The pain I chase away The memories I escape They never leave while I’m away from here I’m just getting closer to the fate I have to follow another prescription to fight the fear And take new swallow of poison that binds Of sadness that kills Into fear that has kept us safe Into paths I have strayed from with you I’ll sail In the land of the strays and waifs In the dirt we have chosen I’ll wake Wish I could leave the things I have been through unsaid If I only could turn the tide, return irreparable loss Embrace you again for the very last time and leave Forever abandoned and dried, unable to find any force I’m pluckless and even too craven to fade in grief There’s only one way out of here Trapped in the spirits To accept the loss If I only could turn the tide, return irreparable loss Embrace you again for the very last time and leave Forever abandoned and dried, unable to find any force I’m pluckless and even too craven to fade in grief Forever abandoned and dried

Niebo 04:34
Under the weight of plight Since darkness has come over When I have lost my light Dropped down into the smoulder So great to hide away and reminisce on who we are Turn our skies from grey and feel the shine Under the weight of time Too afraid of getting sober I shared your breath of life And got awakened stronger One more gaze into your eyes And I’m drowning in the night I trust, I breathe, I feel the warmth inside That night, that dream You brought me back to life If we could only stay and reminisce on who we are Set our hearts ablaze and stop the time I will never forget that affliction in your eyes That weakness I felt And your tears Inside The Sky Being away In joy or in pain Forgiven or lost I’ll know I’m raised from the knees As a part of my soul was left somewhere In the clouds over Wroclaw I will never forget what brought us there Side by side, getting closer, cuddle up And whisper along with the start of The Eve Close your eyes, try to hold on to the last And open your heart when it’s over because We grow, we move, we love
4.
Sometimes I dream of blossoms along that thin road I reckon we’ve been used to taking somewhere close To the land we’ve known, to the land where we’ve grown Undying realm I will never dare call home again O the eagle burnt up in the fire Yet not a feather’s scorched O the eagle swallowed by the ocean Yet not a feather’s moist Can I feel now, feel again Or are we dead We go and flow then and fly on But then we’re dead Contemplations that we pursued Hesitations that kept us mute Everything appears just fake Speculations we had to learn False narrations now bring to ought All this mess we tried to rake The less I held myself the more I seemed to care Why can’t it simply drown in other memories Now that boulevard, those dreadful stones That lazy sunlight, the very place we’ve roamed Thou had shown me void That shaped young man’s voice Back to groves again, the birchwood talks Sweet ideal Christ, the very tales I scorn Thou hast fed me lies Wetted young man’s eyes I don’t know if you realise when your time’s gone That he who marched out of step just heard another drum I heard another drum Awful reasoning and heavy dole The faithful chanting that led us all way home Thou hast taught me faith I must not regret Thou had shown me void That shaped young man’s voice

Red Mistress 02:28
Seven are her guards with the swords No man may come nigh to her Seven are the heads of the beast She gracefully rides upon Compassion, uncover the path To set free the body of light Reflections of sins by the Saints Shall drown in the Babalon’s cup Seven are the hills where she reigns Over the kings of the earth Seven are the lamps at her bed Crafted of absolute gold Compassion, uncover the path To set free the body of light Reflections of sins by the Saints Shall drown in the Babalon’s cup The mother of all men, the womb we are begotten Unveil the purity that we have all forgotten Immaculate and proud, true mistress of the beast Accept my every drop of blood spilled in the mist Seven letters form holy name Red harlot behind the abyss One keeper of the Holy Grail The key to the pitch-perfect bliss

Superscum 04:19
This season we don’t look great enough I’ve heard the fashion shriek No time to waste, we must obtain new stuff Let’s go and buy new things I also heard the winter’s getting cold Where is my credit card I cannot wait to get this furry coat And wear it in my car Everything I wish works out just fine Just check my profile one more time My dress, my car, my dog, my style Please get to know the superstar Please get to know my superscum I’ve killed not once in my entire life Those hunting freaks don’t feel Hail the magic washing flesh free of blood I fill my stomach with After the long day we should celebrate I’ll text from traffic jam And send you address of that night out place With shots, cocaine and men Everything I wish works out just fine Just check my profile one more time My dress, my car, my dog, my style Please get to know the superstar Please get to know my superscum Show me your love and leave your tragedies behind I am your cure, your cancer and your mastermind
7.
The Reason 02:52
You are the reason That I keep breathing Awakened once I left the past behind You are the reason That I keep breathing Awakened once I left the past behind
8.
The manifests we followed so hard Created by thieves, redeemers and priests Our path is the same as the fallen’s Aroused by the lies Alleged as perfect reasons for pride The trophies to chase, the feasts that we make Have turned us as blind as the fallen And frozen our hearts And we’re all to pay once we ablaze There shall be no god left for us to pray One father of life the Chaos shall rise Upon our cross and upon our star Over the axe that uttered faith With a voice of those who bled In thousands of inglorious rhymes In honourless runes and speeches we scooped With a cryptic code of the fallen Abraxas defined The answers had been sunk in wine When questions got raised, when horror was faced With a dying breed of the fallen The truth was denied And we’re all to pay once we ablaze There shall be no god left for us to pray One father of life the Chaos shall rise Upon our cross and upon our star Over the axe that uttered faith With a voice of those who bled And every brand new day I look back at myself One effort to refine, one step to make a change And every brand new day I have to tell myself That I don’t need to die to start to live again

Stalemate 06:32
Out of dusk the pestilence comes by In a way I’m turning blind Every time you take my hand it’d make us suffer Would you tell me more of everything I’ve done Would you dream another virulent desire Another day, the very hate, the very love Release the fire Go burn my bones Help me dissolve Paint yourself red and let the fury run the show Yet here I am Of steam and sands Craving the peace and waiting at the gates of hell Look at me now Staring as through the surface made of glass Staring at the crawling flame Every time you drag me out it’d make us suffer Would you blame me more for what I have become Would you yell another prominent denial Another day, the very pain, the very rum Release the fire Go burn my bones Help me dissolve Paint yourself red and let the fury run the show Yet here I am Of steam and sands Craving the peace and waiting at the gates of hell Look at me now Romance is gone, dim for too long Shattered like dreams, gone just with ease Stalemate has been reached long ago In silent embrace, at a vanishing pace Every line I have still left untold Shall be set ablaze How many days have I denied Just thrown away and left to die So patient, so unused to worrying Towards blurry end There is no place for sorrow Of thousand days I choose the last one The day your fury ends There is no place for sorrow Go burn my bones Help me dissolve And put an end to anything left
10.
From Arctic cols in the North To golden shores of the Caspian I am the ruler of Earth I am the creature that’s born to mind From the ashes of plagues we arise From the schism we revive For our daughters and sons we shall strive After another chiliad From heights the Vulture shan’t fly To depths the Orca shall never dive My power feeds from the wind My path lies beyond the ocean line Known as a predator, feared by every being As one who violently melts his home down into nothing I grip all I own, then sink it or burn Consume all I see, then choke on my greed Until the day we’re dead I shall remain the greatest threat For all the battles and fallen fellows With all our hatred and deadly nature Go ahead, just go ahead For all the secrets I have known I couldn’t keep them anymore I grip all I own, then sink it or burn Consume all I see, then choke on my greed The holy flood, the genocide Nothing can shatter our might The Roman siege, mass suicide We are the end, we are divine We carry death to every kind Until the day we’re fucking dead I shall remain the greatest threat
11.
Put all fragments in line Concatenate them into gradual science What oblivion held and our nature repelled Ancient wisdom by nomads expelled Beyond philistine scope Down the trunk to the roots of the surfaceless world Where the frutions reside and the mastership lies To the essence of luminous tides Believing our novel hollows We’re going under The imminent times Shall greatly disperse modern lies The sequence defined Revealing the light From the soil to the throne From the fear that has never left us alone To the concept of signs and the virtual line That can lead to the great paradigm Reunite every crumb Simulate every moment the land has survived All the way to the guts what the Game Cat prevised Towards edges no one ever found Deceived by all tales and horrors We’re coming undone The imminent times Shall greatly disperse modern lies The sequence defined Revealing the light to the blind Incarnation begun With a fusion of the altered sun Into flames the vows of the believers Shall be zealously thrown In flames your vows Shall forever glow
12.
So cold outside Last walk into the night It drags me down All things have lost the sound The circle ends Figures passing by Yet silent They’re silent That scent of blood And tears turned into dust The track goes down Half buried in the ground Locked in despair Visions passing by Yet silent They’re silent While Panzerlied sheds fear around Under the light of cruel stars I’ll bear your image in my heart And hope to look you in the eyes Until the day somebody finds Six deadly digits on my arm I’ll bear your image in my heart And hope to look you in the eyes
