I: OVERTURE (WAR MARCH)
II: DEPLOYMENT
Can you see the sun is setting
as you smash through our defences?
Eerie whispers raise the tension
as the darkness falls upon you.
War is declared as you enter.
Screaming out a gripe provoking
all the hate from conflicts past, you’ll
fall not knowing what has hit you.
Your loss is imminent. Go back to whence you came.
(You’re) fighting what can’t be broke. Now you will fall.
Righteous and daunting, feel fear strike you down.
Draining your fire! Now you’re no more.
As you ignore early warnings,
soldier’s screaming in your protest.
Not knowing when you’re on your knees.
At your behest we will fight you.
Your loss is imminent. Go back to whence you came.
(You’re) fighting what can’t be broke. Now you will fall.
Righteous and daunting, feel fear strike you down.
Draining your fire! Now you’re no more.
III: THE OFFENSIVE
We are the ones who will victor.
We raise our swords to blinding skies.
And when you fall, your soul will fall to hell.
Hear battle cries. It’s time for you to die.
IV: RE-ENTRY
Now you find the World is slipping
from the grasp you once pretended.
Seeking mercy, that’s uncounted.
Winter burns the cold blood you ply.
Your loss is imminent. Go back to whence you came.
(You’re) fighting what can’t be broke. Now you will fall.
Righteous and daunting, feel fear strike you down.
Draining your fire! Now you’re no more.
V: ENDGAME

When the sun begins to rise, there’s only one thing on my mind.
Jump into the passenger seat, and let me take you for a ride.
‘Cause when I see the traffic lights; green means to ignite.
Put the pedal to the floor and hear the roar.
As long as day is light, even in the darkest nights.
I will always be jaunting for more; heavy metal raw!
Accelerate out of a hard right. Nothing stops me and no-one cries.
In the country, or in the town, watch your knuckles turning white.
‘Cause when I see the traffic lights; green means to ignite.
Put the pedal to the floor and hear the roar.
As long as day is light, even in the darkest nights.
I will always be jaunting for more; heavy metal raw!
Shifting gears, engine screams. You and me: here tonight.
Left or right; you decide. Let’s go for another ride!
Flying in a fifty zone, you are here for a fright.
As I push one more time, in my mirror; flashing lights!
‘Cause when I see the traffic lights; green means to ignite.
Put the pedal to the floor and hear the roar.
As long as day is light, even in the darkest nights.
I will always be jaunting for more; heavy metal raw!

Moonlight! Silver plight draped upon the land.
Shadows scattered from tree-to-tree, sanctuary’s frail!
Scars tingle, I’m filled with fear. What have I become?
Pain ignites this terrifying metamorphosis.
Sinking, fangs: deep within my skin.
Tasting blood feeling strange!
My mortal-self: a slave. A mighty wrath’s impending.
Cannot stop; this change. It’s time to wake the beast within.
Blood drunk! Victims limp; humble mortal flesh.
The hunted becomes the hunter, cyclone of peril.
Witch-hunt! Hordes with fire following the trail
finding they’ve become the victims of this plague.
Sinking, fangs: deep within your skin.
Tasting blood feeling strange!
My mortal-self: a slave. A mighty wrath’s impending.
Cannot stop; this change. It’s time to wake the beast within.
Full moon takes away my mortality,
and when the shade disappears I will change
into the beast!
Claws start the change; ripping through my skin.
Shape-shift: Bones unfurl; bristly Hellion.
Pain; jaw expands. Screaming turns to growls.
Fiend! Death bringer, freak monstrosity!
Full moon takes away my mortality,
and when the shade disappears I will change
into the beast!
The beast within!

Embers

It has been far too long since I last saw your face.
The days have merged to one since you finally moved on.
Never felt my heart this way. The flame that you once gave
is slowly dying out but the embers never turn to ash.
Well it’s been far too long and I’ve got no time to waste.
I can’t recount the wrong but memories roughly stay the same.
Yeah, it’s been far too long and I’ve got no time to waste.
The haunting effigies they never seem to cauterize.
It has been far too long since I last felt your grace.
The warmth that you once gave is now a chilling cold inside.
My lips are always sealed; ‘cause I know that you won’t heal.
The pain inside you: that I know that you can never hide.
Well it’s been far too long and I’ve got no time to waste.
I can’t recount the wrong but memories roughly stay the same.
Yeah, it’s been far too long and I’ve got no time to waste.
The haunting effigies they never seem to cauterize.
Well it’s been far too long and I’ve got no time to waste.
I can’t recount the wrong but memories roughly stay the same.
I know it’s been too long but I’ve got to fill this void.
Your spirit’s still with me. It’s killing me, it’s killing me.

Into The Mist

Cheating is the game. Spreads like a roaring flame.
Violent and grotesque; persistent protestor!
Bite the hand that feeds. Devour like a leech.
Mutated viral infector!
Into The Mist, she rides again!
She’ll never look back to find the victim.
With victory she rides into the sky!
A final victim, she seeks in the wind.
Something sinister breaks through the gaping cleft.
No hope for heaven as she is sent from hell.
Braking through the walls, anguish met with blood.
Infiltrate the peaceful locale.
Into The Mist, she rides again!
She’ll never look back to find the victim.
With victory she rides into the sky!
A final victim, she seeks in the wind.
Pungent: her scent. Her steed enslaved.
Virtue is killed as souls are felled.
Intoxicated the rules have changed.
As she lives life like a girl who cried wolf!
Into The Mist, she rides again!
She’ll never look back to find the victim.
With victory she rides into the sky!
A final victim, she seeks in the wind.

A twisted tale: of no remorse. Tell your side of make believe.
What they say is slanderous. Find no truth within the lies.
Tyrant-like, torturing; to get your fix: it’s salient.
Live in fear, (and) shed these tears, no-one knows what hides inside
If I die before I wake pray someone my soul to take.
Streets are filled with empty voices.
Another dream: another lie. Forsaken by the jilted bloom;
vile intent within these noises.
Justice now, vengeance saved. A name of dirt: that you possess.
Twisted truth, whispering: you can’t hide from infamy.
Righteous horde, wrath repressed; you will get what you deserve!
Slated acts, set in stone; now the vermin’s new disease.
If I die before I wake pray someone my soul to take.
Streets are filled with empty voices.
Another dream: another lie. Forsaken by the jilted bloom;
vile intent within these noises.
If I die before I wake pray someone my soul to take.
Streets are filled with empty voices.
Another dream: another lie. Forsaken by the jilted bloom;
vile intent within these noises.

Look in my eyes. I can see you’re fake.
Take my lies and pray they’re wrong.
And when you see your heart is of black; your mind turns cold.
Walk this road, this path you live.
Déjà vu, the trip is slow.
And when you reach your destiny, your mind turns cold.
(It) just feels the same. Who am I to blame?
Don’t feel I belong. Don’t last very long.
Hear my words, they seek your heart.
Feel my touch, my sweet surprise.
And when you feel my heart so warm your mind turns cold.
(It) just feels the same. Who am I to blame?
Don’t feel I belong. Don’t last very long.
Every day it feels like I just can’t escape this.
Sick of the fate! Just want the taste of a new way.
(It) just feels the same. Who am I to blame?
Don’t feel I belong. Don’t last very long.

Puppet master of your dreams: backlash from within.
No escaping from your life, I’m running through your veins.
Spilling blood; without a trace. Immortal nemesis!
Never see me haunting you from beyond the grave.
Seconds last hours, minutes last days. Feel me every day.
Fear and torment outweigh the truth. Cyclone spins in your brain.
Tormenting dark, whispers so loud, bringing the fear from within.
Hear me now, I’m calling you. Sipping courage; in vain.
I rule your brain; you’re going insane, image remains.
Pain, all that you feel, scars are revealed, body won’t heal.
I torture your soul, and swallow it whole, twisting the blade.
I’m the only escape. Carry the weight, fury and hate.
Darkness falls, it’s time to strike. (I’m) lurking deep within.
Decades passed. Torture fast, binded [sic] to a mast.
Pull the trigger, start the chain. Burden turns to rage.
Time stands still, spectres rise staring at the walls.
Seconds last hours, minutes last days. Feel me every day.
Fear and torment outweigh the truth. Cyclone spins in your brain.
Tormenting dark, whispers so loud, bringing the fear from within.
Hear me now, I’m calling you. Sipping courage; in vain.
I rule your brain; you’re going insane, image remains.
Pain, all that you feel, scars are revealed, body won’t heal.
I torture your soul, and swallow it whole, twisting the blade.
I’m the only escape. Carry the weight, fury and hate.
I am hell making you swell. No remorse. I stay the course. You feel the pain make you insane, for I am hate. I’ll give you hell!
Set you free, from this disease. Still feel pain from this disgrace.
I rule your brain; you’re going insane, image remains.
Pain, all that you feel, scars are revealed, body won’t heal.
I torture your soul, and swallow it whole, twisting the blade.
I’m the only escape. Carry the weight, fury and hate.
No remorse! No remorse! No remorse!
