I'm dying from within Is this the end of the road that I've traveled in sin? Many are the times when I've shed my skin But I can't escape this battle, this one I can never win
You follow my commandments, but do you read between the lines? I'm trapped in a pit where no light ever shines In solitude my prayers came through
[Chorus] Watch me, see how I suffer and die Death is my shadow, this is my goodbye Don't want to live no more, life is a lie So I hurt myself, watch my veins run dry
I'm trapped in this inner hell I once chose to fall and I fell Hiding from the world alone in my shell I think people know what I don't dare to tell
Hear my screams, this agonizing cries I'm standing right in front of you, you watch as I die I hate myself, and I hate most of you too I spit at the mirror, reaper now lead me through
[Repeat Chorus x2]
2. Breathe Through Me
I worship thee, I want to feel your power flow through me Hear my plead, come and rescue me Set my spirit free, allow me to see Grant me the key to eternity
Do I matter? I ask myself How come no one remembers my name? I who served the light Who fell in love with the night
[Chorus:] Free me from my shackles Pierce through my soul's disguise Grace me with the knowledge to see through the lies Make me one with you now and eternally Breathe through me for the world to see
Like sunshine after rain Lift me up, exalt me, release me from pain Remove damnation's stain That torments me and marks me as Cain
[Chorus]
3. The Mirrors Of My Soul
I was alone, blinded, unaware Then their voices came near, now inside my mind they're always there Telling me what to say and do Guiding my path, carrying me through
Now my words cut like blades of anger Gospels of the night, sung under the northern light The thing that once was me is no more human inside I am lost, I am dead yet alive
[Chorus] My eyes the mirror my soul Black, empty, senseless and cold I've lost the lust for life - leave me alone I will exit this existence - I am going home
For my there's no tomorrow, for me there's no today My work is done, I will walk away...
Deeper into darkness, deeper I fell When I close my eyes I see myself burn in hell Anointed in blood, crowned by the damned The tongue of doom, forever I am
I am a demon, an angel, the voice of the insane Messenger of light and bringer of pain When my inner voice command I obey It controls me, like a master his slave
[Chorus] My eyes the mirror my soul Black, empty, senseless and cold I've lost the lust for life - leave me alone I will exit this existence - I am going home
For my there's no tomorrow, for me there's no today My work is done, I will walk away...
4. Odium Generis Humani
Hark to my voice, I speak with serpent's tongue I've denounced the mindless flocks to take the final plunge Into the secret pitch black depths, where burning fury reigns That special place within myself of hatred, rage and pain
I've unleashed the beast, and now I come for thee
I am the force, bringer of your demise With the fury of a thousand storms I'll end your feeble cries I'll take away your dreams, your worthless lives I'll reap Now hear these words that heave the earth while the cattle mourns and weeps
Death's scythe shall sing - embrace the suffering
[Chorus] Misanthropy so deep in me I hate every single one of you, can't you see? So bleed for me, please die for me Odium Generis Humani
Death's scythe shall sing - embrace the suffering
[Chorus] Misanthropy so deep in me I hate every single one of you, can't you see? So bleed for me, please die for me Odium Generis Humani
My wish for thee, death and disease And not even then shall you be free So bleed for me, please die for me Odium Generis Humani
5. The Darkest Road
What is wrong, what is right? I worship the night Into the darkness I wander Bathing my skin the full moon light In this my final hour, in this my final rite
I hunger for the eternal silence To drown in the perpetual sleep To take control and to finally seal my fate All living fills me with hate, so deep...
[Chorus] I walk alone - the darkest road I walk alone... I walk alone - life dethroned I was born unknown, I die alone...
What is false, what is true? Deep within you When everything comes to an end Praise it, embrace it, the everlasting night In this my final hour, in this your final rite
[Chorus] I walk alone - the darkest road I walk alone... I walk alone - life dethroned Born unknown, die alone...
What is wrong, what is right? I've chosen the night Into the darkness I wander Bathing my skin in the full moon light In this my final hour, in this my final fight
[Chorus] I walk alone - the darkest road I walk alone... I walk alone - life dethroned I was born unknown, I die alone...
6. Way Of The Rope
With each single breathe, I pray for death I curse my day of birth, I hate this stinking earth I walk the path of self-destruction Just like your worthless kind, I too was blind But now that I'm awake, this world fills me with hate I've cast aside all false illusions
No more a servant nor a puppet on strings The time has come for rebellion This burden has for far too long weighed heavy on me Release my soul through a rope and a tree
With each step of mine, I cross the line Into where light is dark, and death is the spark That ignites my satisfaction
Oh to enter the sweetness of oblivion
[Chorus] Dark is the path that I wander I curse your prophets, these proclaimers of hope My mind is set, I am finally free I shun this mortal coil and choose the way of the rope
On this my final day, I walk away My body hanging cold All hail the gallow's pole The rope entwined brings me salvation
[Chorus] For the eternal sleep I hunger This existence I can no longer cope It's time to exit, I shall cease to breathe With a snare around my neck I walk the way of the rope Dark is the path that I wander I curse your prophets, these proclaimers of hope My mind is set, I am finally free I shun this mortal coil and choose the way of the rope
No more a servant nor a puppet on strings The time has come for rebellion This burden has for far too long weighed heavy on me Release my soul through a rope and a tree But for the eternal black and tranquility For a cold dark place where life is not And a shallow grace where I shall rot
[Repeat Chorus]
7. Plutonium Reveries
Oh glorious father I call upon Your blinding winds Engulf this world with your nuclear fire Come forth and end this charade This travesty known as humanity shan't prevail This empty void is what I desire
Missiles shall fly Upon the black wings of destiny Brought forth by artillery Into the womb of mankind
[Chorus] Punishing fire I greet thee Come silence this world with your roar Plutonium reveries - open damnation's door Punishing fire I greet thee Come silence this world with your roar Plutonium Reveries - and prayers of war
Radiant demon come cleanse me with your acid rain Pollute this earth with you poisonous breath Come forth and end this charade This travesty known as humanity shan't prevail Unleash your venom and bless us with death
[Repeat Chorus]
Missiles shall fly Upon the black wings of destiny Brought forth by artillery Erasing mankind
[Chorus] Punishing fire I greet thee Come silence this world with your roar Plutonium reveries - open damnation's door Devouring flames I beseech thee Ensure life to return no more Plutonium reveries - and prayers of war
8. Feeding Moloch
Scornful cancer of the earth, I challenge thee Strong as the tallest mountain, I will not break The blackness in my putrid heart, You can not see Born unto this filthy world For no reason but one: to kill your breed
The hunt is on, the scent's been caught, Now I stalk my prey Whipped into a murderous state With halos pure and free from sin Now little piglet let me in
I will steal your young from the cradles Where you thought that they were safe From their peaceful sleep and into the night Towards the blood-drenched realms to feed The flames
[Chorus] Rend the flesh So sweet and innocent I heed to your call (I'm burning them all) Feeding Moloch
Moloch, oh Moloch I call upon thee I bring you gifts of atrocities The sound of breaking bones And the grinding of teeth Moloch has awoken to feed Devourer of infants come forth and bless me With this killing spree I aim to please Your spiritual essence now embodied in me The blood of babies smeared on my cheeks
The finest piglet of them all His severed head nailed up on my wall
I will steal your young from the cradles Where you thought that they were safe From their peaceful sleep and into the night Towards the blood-drenched realms to feed The flames
[Chorus] Rend the flesh So sweet and innocent I heed to your call (I'm burning them all) Feeding Moloch
9. Harvest
Behold the crown of creation Worthy of nothing but scorn Failed abortions that never Should have been born Liars Two-faced, spiteful and vile Your true self well hidden behind A poisonous smile
Deceiver No deed shall go unnoticed, Unpunished nor be undone The hope for reprise is what makes my body go one
Kind words that reek of betrayal From tongues that drip of lies One hand reached our while the other Is hiding a knife
[Chorus] Deceit for a lifetime has taken it's toll An emotional void, I feel numb and cold You're all dead to me now, And has been for long The time has come to reap what you've sown
Scum I detest all of your kind Forever you'll be the greatest travesty The essence of humanity You failure The equivalent of slime A tragic breed, not more than a disease, So stay away from me
[Chorus] Deceit for a lifetime has taken it's toll An emotional void, I feel numb and cold You're all dead to me now, And has been for long The time has come to reap what you've sown This harvest is heavy and bitter it seems In tainted soil it has grown These words are it's venom and my gift to thee So choke on them now and leave me be
A sorry excuse for a human A complete and utter disgrace Not having the courage to speak up to my face
[Chorus] Deceit for a lifetime has taken it's toll An emotional void, I feel numb and cold You're all dead to me now, And has been for long The time has come to reap what you've sown This harvest is heavy and bitter it seems In tainted soil it has grown These words are it's venom in it's purest form So choke on them now, yes harvest the storm
