Megaton Therion
03:46
|

Priests of Armageddon raise the nuclear dagger
And strike down, blind attempt to dominate
Under bloodred skies of death they do attack with spell
Loathsome demon forms annihilate – at war
Look, behold, the demon beast is raised to execrate
Blind destroyer none can understand
Envoys of Gehenna come to thwart and ruin and desecrate
Heralds of disaster scorch the land in havoc
Megaton Therion
Now the time is come at last to kiss your ass goodbye
All nightmares come to an end and now it’s time to die
Megaton Therion
Now the warhead soars above the winter will arrive
A night to do away with those who happen to survive
All is lost like ashes swept away the wind has blown
And as you die your spirit now departs to the unknown
Megaton Therion

Pyres in the Night
02:44

Αθάνατον Αρετήν
We are the fated fighters whose hearts in battle burn
We thirst for life yet know our death may lurk behind each turn
For one knows not when singing if a song will reach its end
Lest swift death falls upon us and clasps us in his hand
The dark night holds the blazes
Pyres for the ones who died
Once proud warriors we were, yet our swords now turn to rust
And travellers tread the paths made from our bones and dust
But the days of glory past are beacons to inspire
All those who behold as our bones burn in the pyre
Red flames reach the sky
Sending smoke the wind to ride
In legend we live on although our time’s long gone
Faint echoes of the din of battles fought and won

Doomed to Death
04:05
|
|||
|
On a slate you lie awake
Time is nigher to expire
Visions of a dark past
Are with you to the last
Numb lethargy assaults your limbs
But your mind drifts away
Is this in truth what it seems
The opening of the gates
Doomed to death
Into the beyond
Doomed to death
Journey into fear
Who will judge your many crimes
So many places, so many times
Will you be allowed to rest in peace
Or will torment not cease
You lie and wait, paralised
Landscapes flow, memories
So much deceit, so many lies
Vile hatred to appease
Doomed to death
Doomed to be the one
Doomed to death
Dying now and here
Doomed to death
Your sins you now atone
Doomed to death
Dying here alone
Doomed to death
Infernal agony

Nothing Left to Kill
04:24
|
|||
|
The wind sweeps the debris
Strewn among half-fallen walls
Tokens left behind
When civilization falls
Beneath the pale red skies
A ruined dead Earth lies
Sad witness to a species
That caused its own demise
The calls of birds fell silent
No sounds by beasts or men
And scattered vinyl records
Never can be played again
Vacant are the seats of power
Empty are the thrones
All at last are equal
Contaminated bones
Radioactive skulls
Now devoid of will
The dead cannot rise
There’s nothing left to kill
No humans are left here
To leave a further mark
Only grinning skulls
That shine green when it’s dark
Humans caught like mice
Fell in their own traps
No one could deter
The ultimate collapse
Now this swirling planet
Is just a giant tomb
A monument to mankind
Who plunged into their doom

Proud Pariahs
04:34
|
|||
|
We are here among you, the children of the night
Easy to acknowledge or hidden in plain sight
Underground we used to thrive and many still remain
Remembering the days of old and keeping the old flame
Our faith oppresses none – Metallic liturgy
Our only commandment is to always remain free
We accept no dogma and we follow our own rules
And we care not about the words of authoritarian fools
We’re the proud pariahs gathered in the name of steel
Metal flows in our veins, always has and always will
Our life forged on the altar of the true eternal sound
We are hellbound
Proud
We can never stray away from this path till we die
Metallic
For this is what we are and there’s no logic reason why
Burning flame
Flames that burn like hellfire, the Metal lava flows
Forever
Cathartic and eternal the power it bestows
We are the fierce guardians of the true ultimate art
We will never break the oath until death do us part
And even then we’ll deafen Charon across the dreaded Stygian
Electric legion
Joined in bestial gatherings our altar is the stage
Our chants are high in decibels and guitars scream in rage
Supporting true Metallic bands and labels like Stormspell
From the shore of Heaven to the fiery pits of Hell
Our faith none can destroy, neither man nor time
Should Metal be outlawed we would live a life of crime
Those who moved away from Metal were never true at all
But many never changed – many never fall!

Purgatory Whorehouse
02:53
|
|||
|
Demons fly with ghastly grins from a sky of frantic void
Fearsome dreaded canvas of old Hieronymous
Alighieri strolling idly amongst the broken stones
Black bones of a landscape of the mind
Purgatory whorehouse
Redemption is denied
Enter the pathway of all vice
My soul has ascended; my trial is harsh
Deemed unworthy, doomed to fail the reward
I turn my back scornful of the virtuous path
Purported bliss that I now shun
To a redlit tower I now head with contempt
More inviting than the supernal gates
I yield to temptresses in lust
Purgatory whorehouse
Voluptuousness unchained
My soul is lost and cast away
Questioning the dogma
I indulge in heresy
And choose the path of the accursed
Milton at the doorway bids me welcome to this fucking den
A red and sinful pitfall now beckons from within
The doors are shut behind me not to be opened again
My choice is made, I embrace sin
Purgatory whorehouse
The carnal feast begins
And the angels sing their song

Death to All
03:17
|
|||
|
Death to all!
Death to all backstabbers whose ends justify the means
Death to all for whom material gain their conscience cleans
Death to all
Death to all the preachers who would put me to the flame
Death to all the hypocrites who burden sex with shame
Death to all bigots who need stupid crutches
Like homeland or colour or vain ancestry
Death to all tyrants oppressing the masses
Who crush fellow man with false authority
Death to all!
Death to all who kill and rape to plunder what they can
Death to all who validate that man is wolf of man
Wolf of man
Death to all who would see me led astray from my path
Death to all these fucking maggots, may them soon meet death
Deathspeed!
Death to all who sell their art, following the trend
Death to all false Metal, may it meet a painful end
Death to politicians, who will give us smiles with lies
Sentencing whole nations caring not who lives or dies
If might is right will you be willing to carry the weight
Of guiding your whole life under the flag of hate?
Will you be held accountable for whatever you decide
Or are you truly just a bully, of darkness terrified?
Death to all sadists who despise the underdog
Thinking themselves to be above the rest
Death to all cogs in the wheel who conform
And who think that to bow may be all for the best
Death to all!

Shadow of a Man
05:28
|
|||

Bury the expectations you had for your life
For they were the victim of unfathomable fate
Weak, unable of control, a wreck that’s cast adrift
Feeble attempt to resist, too little and too late
Sucked into a vortex of disgrace you’re overwhelmed
Desperate, seeking for some sense, as madness takes the helm
Mercilessly your world crumbles into dust
And you retreat; you’re the shadow of a man
Vile and crushed, craving respite
Endless pain you cannot fight
Haunted by dreams, living in dread of the night
Lost in a quest that is far beyond your might
Self contempt, pitiful scenes
Fatal wounds, felt but unseen
You cannot escape the vice of a reality deceased
You try to cope and fail
You reminisce...
Months and years will pass before this dark time’s finally undone
Pain will always last but in the end serenity shall come
Bid farewell to what’s dead and gone
Once you were a shadow but now you have grown strong

Fire Unleashed
04:27
|
|||
|
Aeschylan word-weaving
Buried in sands of the past
In a hoard of man’s lost knowledge
Waiting to be found at last
Among ancient scrolls is kept
The dark tale of a titan’s might
Enchained to a gloomy crag
For many a day and night
Valiant
Defiant
Titan
Bringer of light
Opposer
Master
Give us
Fire unleashed
The ocean sings for the victim
Of a whimsical decree
Who waits in patient torment
For the time when he’ll be free
For the hero that will come
To release him from his plight
Shackled above the waves
For many a day and night
Did Prometheus do an action out of love for humankind
Bringing fire from the heavens for us to thrive and learn
Or was Zeus a wiser god wanting to protect a child
Knowing if you give them fire children will burn
