On a succubic night
02:55
|
|||
the gate to hell
it opens wide
purgatory flames
throw unholy light
myriads
no longer hide
succubi they are
released upon mankind
PRE CHORUS:
they’re after you
they’re after you
CHORUS:
Men can´t refuse
The demon´s desire
Men have to satisfy
The demon´s desire
One can struggle but never defy
These ruttish demons on a succubic night
The devil´s spawn
swarming the lands
joining men as they sleep
to take what they demand
thousand dreams
of thousand lusts
gorgeous nightmares
to breed another incubus
REPEAT PRE CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
Ruttish demons, they get what they desire
On a succubic night, on a succubic night
Ruttish demons, they get what they desire
On a succubic night, on a succubic night

Of a guilty man (IV)
04:11
|

I sit here in darkness once more
As i did last night and many nights before
The candles flame draws shadows moving uncontrolled
Almost living bizarre forms dancing on my walls
I sit here in darkness once more
Calling for the spirit of my love long gone
I know you hear my cries
I know you see my tears
I invoke you give me a sign
Show me that you are here
CHORUS
I can´t stand it, i can´t fight it
The guilt is killing me
I´m so sorry
you see me on my knees
Please forgive me this terrible sin
Before it tears my heart in two
Please have mercy, relieve my soul
I sit here in darkness once more
As i did last night and many nights before
Listening to white noise chaos
Hoping you will make it through
Trying to catch your voice
Trying to find you
I sit here in darkness once more
I want to speak to the one who i adore
Reaching out to the pretty prom queen
that died the other night
reaching out tot he one that i´ve killed
the one i´ve killed with a knive
REPEAT CHORUS 3x

1) Dense are the trees
Where you will find me
Follow my voice and soon you´ll see
Don´t have no fear
Of shadows in here
Keep on walking and i´ll appear
2) thin as a corpse
My bones black as night
Wearing a top hat, my eyes glow white
Your soul is my desire
I´ll wear it as my attire
CHORUS:
You won´t escape, You won´t escape
Tonight you´re dying
Your soul i´ll take, your soul i´ll take
when it is rising
and i put it to my treasury
all the warnings you´ve ignored
now you shall stay forever more
and hand your soul to Walking Sam
3) get rid of all doubts
And Consider to die
Worthless, unloved, a complete waste of life
give up all hope
And let your self go
no one will ever, will ever miss you
4) Over and over
you´ll hear me speak
hear me whisper, whisper so sweet
until you lose your sanity
I´ll make you listen to me
REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT 4)
You won´t escape, you won´t escape
Tonight you´re dying
your soul i´ll take, your soul i´ll take
when it is rising
You won´t escape, you won´t escape
No you cannot escape
your soul i´ll take, your soul i´ll take
it´s mine forever to keep
all the warnings you´ve ignored
now you shall stay forever more
and hand your soul to Walking Sam

Enshrined in silence
04:23
|

So many years have come and gone
Since we´ve met and we´ve become
One heart, one soul and deeply bond
Someone took you from my side
made me fade away from your mind
You didn´t see me as if you were blind
You wasted our common years
You just left and disappeared
But i´ve sworn that i´ll bring you back here
Forever you will stay with me
This ain´t the end of our days
I cannot let you go away
I cannot let you go away
CHORUS
I won´t say
I won´t say
I won´t say goodbye
As your life fades away
I make sure you will not leave
I make sure you`ll stay with me
in my basement you lie on the floor
Stone by stone i build up this wall
to put you behind forever more
and when i cut off your tongue
i must say it didn´t feel wrong
No screams, no cries, no help to come
You look at me for one last time
Please my love don´t you cry
As darkness comes and kills all light
In eternity you will stay
tied and chained you will remain
Never again you´ll go away
Never again you´ll go away
REPEAT CHORUS
You´ll stay with me
I won´t say goodbye
I won´t say goodbye
I make sure you will not leave
I make sure you`ll stay with me
You´ll stay with me

Creatures I call
Creatures i call upon thee
reveal yourself
reveal yourself by all means
lay down your
lay down your disguise
come step into
come step into the shining lights
leave the shadows
leave the shadows so you´ll be seen
come and gather
come and gather around me
The time has come
The time has come to rise
There´s no reason
There´s no reason left to hide
No more fear and no more doubt
Arise from the underground!
No longer they can hold you down
Arise from the underground!
CHORUS 2x
Gone are the chains - Now we are free
their world will change – Painfully
You´re standing tall you´re standing proud
Arise from the underground!
Youc shall prevail here and now
Arise from the underground!
REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS

As the whisper grows
03:19
|
|||
I´m thinking thoughts not mine
of deeds that i despise
yet i don´t know why
but i hear a constant whisper inside
the whisper grew to screams
keep demanding to release
something buried in me so deep
something that has murderous needs
CHORUS
I am gone - now here i am
I am gone – and i will stay
I am gone – this means your end
I will never go away
i really tried to hide
whats dwelling in my mind
from holding it down all the time
eventually i got tired to fight
so in the end i agreed
to let it out, let it free
but as it seems to be
what i discovered is the real me
REPEAT CHORUS
Time to decide who´s lifes i´ll take
to decide who will live today
to decide who won´t fall prey
and to decide who to eliminate
REPEAT CHORUS

Me or you?
03:53
|
|||
my father who abandoned me
he dug out many graves to create me
wanted to be another god
I’ve never lived and wasn´t dead
I am abhorrent that´s what you have said
and so you came to hunt me down
CHORUS A
Are you sure
who is the monster me or you?
Oh, I know
who is the monster me or you
Into the woods i had to flee
not to be heard also not to be seen
it is my end if i get caught
ready to kill you´re coming near
And just like your hounds you can smell my fear
Limitless your greed for blood
REPEAT CHORUS x 2
Why can´t you leave me be?
Why can´t you leave me be?
Why can´t you leave me be?
Why can´t you leave me be?
REPEAT CHORUS x 2
Are you sure
who is the monster me or you?
Oh, I know
who is the monster me or you
With all the cruelty you show
who is the monster me or you?
Oh, I know
The real monster it is you!
The real monster is you!

Slashed
03:35
|
|||
forces I called
in the night
i signed darkest pacts
to keep me from dying
as the devil came
i closed my eyes
to receive immortality
to receive eternal life
PRE CHORUS:
Oh I´ve kissed the fallen star
swopped mortality for a word
(for a word)
now I know the curse of ages
so every night I moan:
CHORUS (2x):
mad angel see me slashed
I cut these gapin´ wounds
(see me slashed)
I beg you leave them open
and leave me too
(see me slashed)
fear and hope are
siblings in life
sometimes truth hurts
but you can’t deny it
my hope - it will end tonight
my fear – i still cant die
take away immortality
take away eternal life
REPEAT PRE CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE (4x)
Let me end here
Let me come to an end
REPEAT CHORUS
(see me slashed)

Forevermore
03:56
|
|||
One night they
came to drag me
out of my home
into the darkness of this cold dungeon
down below
down below
And they were
Bashing on me
and kicking my guts
without any reason they accused me
of witchcraft
of witchcraft
PRE CHORUS:
i harmed no one
i did no wrong
i swear that once i am gone
you will regret what you have done
CHORUS:
I curse you all
My curse shall make you fall
You´ll hear my cries forevermore!
I curse you all
My curse shall make you fall
You´ll hear my cries
hear my cries forevermore!
Forevermore!
And then they
started to look
for demons in me
enjoying torture and torment
and all my screams
all my screams
i could not
stand all the pain
i had to give in
although i was innocent i confessed
all the sins
all the sins
REPEAT PRE CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS 2x

Be my guest
Welcome to my hotel
Have a rest
Your needs shall be fulfilled
Enjoy your stay
In a room that you won´t like
Anyway
You will not leave it alive
CHORUS
I am born
I am born with the devil in me
(born with the devil in me)
I am born
I am born with the devil in me
born with the devil in me
this design
serves only one purpose
homicide
to trap, kill and dispose
you will die
I loved to be your host
Here inside
the Murder Castle of Henry Holmes
REPEAT CHORUS x 2

Wine of gods
03:17
|
|||
finally the day is gone
finally the night has come
finally we join again
once more we will inflict some pain
pain!
Another sacrifice has to be made
made!
Another light of life has to fade
fade!
We won´t let you get away
we are those feasting on fear
we are those drinking your tears
we are those bringing despair
and we, we are everywhere
hey!
Another sacrifice has to be made
made!
Another light of life has to fade
fade!
we won´t let you get away
(PRE CHORUS)
your life´s what we want and
your death shall be granted
(CHORUS)
as we spill
spill the wine of gods
as we spill
spill the wine of gods
you are the ones screaming tonight
you are the ones bleeding tonight
you are the ones - tonight
tonight you are the chosen ones
hey!
Another sacrifice has to be made
made!
Another light of life has to fade
fade!
we won´t let you get away
(REPEAT PRE CHORUS)
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Wine of Gods
Wine of Gods
Wine of Gods
Your death shall be granted
(REPEAT CHORUS)
