November 04:51

Lyris: One man said to me That mankind never learns from history Now I understand so well his mention Memories of long lost time I'm facing all my doubts inside Is there something I should know That you won't tell me? Senseless actions Devastating realistic genocide The threshold bursts upon the point of climax Forgotten years CHORUS: I'll hide my tears I'm feeling that I'm thrown again Down for execution Through the floury shades of mist I see a light shining Gates of love and gates of hate Facing insignificance All I ever dreamed about Buried in the rain of tears Ride the snake and ride the thunder Through the acid tears we cry How could we forget the celebration? Chilled to the marrow of serenity Or is it still the pouring rain? We know it's not the rape of virtue November fears, November tears Abuse them all, abused for years Being torn is our contribution November fears CHORUS November fears

Xenophobia 05:10

Lyrics: Feelings of an ocean in pain Dreams of wars I can not explain I thought about the ancient blood I watched the frozen pictures from our God The 10 commandments are they so real? You shall not murder, you shall not steal Jesus Christ they wrapped in chains Ancestors of the ghost of Cain Witches convicted to burn in flames The inquisition played their holy games The crusaders with their cross of the dead A machine gun etiquette is the head CHORUS: I can't go on, I'm falling from you I can't go on, feels like I'm losing ground I can't go on, tearing all our lives apart I can't go on bowing to your God With one foot in the new millennium The other buried in sanctum sanctorum Frightening shadows of history Holy wars, the holocaust, nothing but misery The words are venomous disguised to thrill Should the image of God destroy, rape and kill? CHORUS You shall not murder You shall not steal Should the image of God destroy, rape and kill? I won't bow to a killer in disguise I won't bow to a xenophobic agitator I won't bow to the churches or the priests I won't bow to the Lord of Lies The Lord of Lies A killer in disguise The Lord of Lies A killer in disguise Jesus Christ An erotic sacrifice

Into The Dungeon (Version) 05:20

Lyrics: I'm waiting, I'm waiting here again I try not to tell you how I am The mirror's laughing, I'm running in the rain An echo surrounds me, the screaming of a lamb This nauseous feeling tears me apart From right or wrong, God did I try The almighty God well is this art? I couldn't stand to tell you why... CHORUS: Into the dungeon there's no recall I'm waiting for the death next door The Devil and the seven steps Are waiting here forevermore I'm waiting, I'm waiting by the phone I have some questions, why won't you call? You know I can't reach you on your dark throne I had the faith in you now watch it fall Your dreams of me were true about you The webs you spun, you had me in your net The wind blows me away from you as I knew What you are is what you get What you get, you deserve it You deserve it, you deserve it You bastard how could you do?!?

Consealed Behind The Chequered Flag 04:25

Lyrics: We can never understand What's truth or lies about the world these days In the western civilization We watch the new God called dollar, pound and mark But when you sit in your 1000 square meter house The pain and loneliness marks your face You see money isn't everything That makes the world go round, you live in the dark CHORUS: The goal you set will forever tell you lies You're struggling in vain for your own greed Sit back and watch your life is rushing by The success you want to reach is out of sight You're going to die without the feeling that you've been alive The life you lost, the love you wouldn't ever feel There's no control, there's no sense of living There's no time to die God bless America The land of opportunities, the melting pot Glory, glory Hollywood We're watching the young men dying in the gulf The both sides of the coin they show Makes no success for me, for you For us, for them, for no one CHORUS We're not supposed to die In the bonfire of vanities We're not waiting here for nuclear waste We're not crying until the end

Question Of Sacrifice 05:12
lyrics

Lyrics: The darkness keeps me in the distance I hold it back, I keep it out of reach from the light Will they ever hear a fervent prayer? Will they listen to me Will they ever take me out from the night? I cannot choose my own destiny But what's the purpose, I hope it will be a merciful fate Come dance with me, we'll hide together And share your strength with me To break the hypocrite's gate CHORUS: Is it a question of time? Is it a question of love? Is it a question of being kind? No it's a question of sacrifice Are these raven's of gold, or are they of ashes? If the kingdom will come, I've been waiting so long But life is short, I'm getting older With all running figures around These are the days we belong The bloodstained faces appears in the attic Full of lies, full of hate, full of double moral bullshit The drowning truth, what's the problem? When nothing makes sense I'll never be the one to admit CHORUS Why is it so hard to say: I'm sorry? Why is it so hard to say: I was wrong? Why is it so hard to say: It was my fault? When it is so easy to deceive, lie and betray

Lyrics: I'm sitting here alone again I'm praying for time Time to heal my wounds And time to make up my mind I don't want anybody to touch my soul Just leave me alone 'Cos I've been burned once before It is in the air, it is everywhere The smile on your face is on a dead skull The air is thin, my mind is filled with darkness and pain And I am the clown who forgot how to laugh Love brings you problems and worries Love brings you hatred and lies Love is never what you want it to be So why should we fall in love In love, in love, in love Falling in love I think about the past, how I was fading away Away from reality, rebirth in midwinter pain I can wait for hours, I can wait my whole life I can watch the stars above and wish I'll go there Some day... It was in the air, it was everywhere The smile on your face, my God it was a dead skull The air was thin, my mind was filled with darkness and pain And I was the clown, but I couldn't laugh I will never watch myself turn back again My suffered brain just screams: "No more!" As I know that you will find it everywhere So I just want to be alone Alone, alone, alone Leave me alone Falling in love, in love, in love Falling in love Leave me alone, alone, alone Leave me alone, alone, alone I'm sick of you I'm sick of it all I'm sick of everything...!

Last Rites 04:40

Lyrics: He watches from a dull old thousand land Over the smoke and over corpse's mirrors As the whispers of sadness if he should forget it all And kill as they want to cause the effect Rage and ravage, exterminate and kill on the road to sorrow He took the mourning train to watch the sun go down Bodies floating over the Messiah never returned And bodies floating over Europe, blood is all around CHORUS: Watches from a pale and bitter face What went wrong? Watches from a pale and bitter face These last rites Conjuring to the time to hold on for a second An ancient gallery of memories flows up into his mind A picture of his mother as she kisses him goodbye The day he marched away to finally be a man This world of fireworks and guns of insanity There'll be no such things as saints and martyrs Engine calling on the electric way, laughing corpses This is not his country, or religion He shouldn't be there at all CHORUS Purgatory's closing in

Lyrics: Taken away, does freedom exist? Taken to Hades by the Iron Duke's fist Children are dying, women are mourning The truth is in jail, ravaged and torn The night was so cold No fire, no guns so they told Well I thought the revolution was over A hypocrite with war to cover CHORUS: Kissing away to war Cover their hate with love Driven away in blood The truth is drowning in lies In the suffocated ground No, they should have known Not to play with the people that own Who gave the right to make that suffer He's got it now, the awarded assassin Yesterday a whole worlds hero But tomorrow the ground was too low The want to grow up, not to blow up CHORUS Now get him! ...in lies... Use your experience Your common sense They want to breathe So pack your lies and leave CHORUS (repeat) ...As we marched away to war We kissed the ground of ancient lands...

Face The New World 06:14

Lyrics: I watch a world under siege I watch a world out of relief The twisted bodies of our youth Taste the shame of their own blood The age of wrath, we're all doomed to die But justice is far from our hands I don't know what they're trying to prove Hate your neighbor if he's not like you CHORUS: I could stand here just for the night I could watch the children cry Burning houses, empty rooms Face the new world A young sweet girl is going to bed She's anxious 'cause she's not going alone Her own father wants to feel her Sex! Sex! Sex! Sex! It's not sex, it's not love, it's awful waste She will never feel the love to a man His incestuous addiction destroys her life It's not a fiction, it's everywhere Take me out of this place, out of this hate The Chaos surrounds us hour by hour If the world is Charon then what is hell? CHORUS Come to me Come and see Come to me CHORUS This path is long, an eternal inferno Who gives the right to take a life in one's hands? If you don't have the knowledge To resurrect one from the dead You should not be so eager to deal death sentences While they're killing themselves on the Balkan For country, for colours, for religion We're all the same We're all the same CHORUS If God exists, well is he proud of this? (repeat)

Faith (Resurrection Mix) 05:03

Lyrics: Remember how to live in the dark Still remember snowflakes in my throat I was dragged in, who dragged me out How was I supposed to get it through? CHORUS: I can still wake up frightened Afraid of going back God I'm so glad it's over Who has the faith in me? I thought I had the size of the ocean I didn't know I was just a pond I took the keys, I took the truth Just for going down and watch Lucifer smile CHORUS And the light was guarding me Through the gates so open and wide for me I could watch the flowers, I could watch the sun These things that has been held for me so blind And I looked at my shadow who lived in vain I tore it apart, I threw it away And finally I had reached the dawn Finally I could seize the day, but CHORUS These days were covered in black Black curtains of suicide As I thought my time was over I saw the eyes of faith I can still wake up frightened Afraid of going back These days were covered in black Black curtains of suicide God I’m so glad it’s over Who has the faith in me? As I thought my time was over I saw the eyes of faith

Nazgûl (Morgul Version) 05:35

Lyrics: "One ring to rule them all One ring to find them One ring to bring them all And in the darkness bind them In the land of Mordor Where the shadows lie" They were once nine kings with power in their hands But they hungered too much, too far, too loud So the dark lord heard their crying for more lands More lands to reign, their vanity took their pride They should have listened to the voices in their minds You can get no power by being other's slaves Now they'll hear him laughing as they're fading away He took their minds, their hope, their hearts, their souls Now they're after a little man from the north who didn't know The power and the magic in a little ring which he keeps Guided by Sauron they gathered at the ford, they said: "Give us the ring and come with us to Mordor" "I will give you nothing", he replies "I will give you nothing", he replies Hide, rise Hide, hide, rise, rise! In the land of death you can be no king Now they're just false replicas of what they once were They say eternal life, I say eternal pain The sound of death and pain is in their cries So now the nine riders are making the dark lord's will They have forgotten their names, just oblivion in their minds They are addicted to him, they are addicted to his ring Their only vulnerability is reaching their home The little man is carrying their lives in his hands The face of Angmar doesn't fear this man on his way He's approaching the Mount Doom to throw it away, down there In Orodruin's fire they remember his words "I will give you nothing", he replies "I will give you nothing", he replies "I will give you nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing", he cries "I will never ever give you anything", he cries
