The day has come, the innocent blood feeds the ground Feel the fire, no act of mercy can be found One would deny it would once be this way But future’s now, we all die in dismay From the sky the embers of death fall like rain Invaders watch our corpses with disdain But then they vanish within one breath As war’s creation unleashes its wrath Exciter, eraser... Rise the Decimator! Exciter, eraser... From the sky Man and blood are all intertwined in his brain Truth and death are arts of his divine domain And so our shackles are crushed and removed The mankind saved from impending doom Exciter, eraser... Rise the Decimator! Exciter, eraser From the sky... What is this thing and who sent it to help us Now what will it do, will it further enslave us? Or bring us to peace, to be guardian of mankind? So here we all stand, drenched in blood of the nations Unsure of our fate - either death or salvation We’re fully at mercy of steel god from the sky Exciter, eraser... Rise the Decimator! Exciter, eraser... From the sky The judgment from the sky

Faceless.... Forged out of sin, the hatred within Paleness... Scarring his face, a bitter disgrace Lashed by the wrath Condemned to redeem Invoker of Doom The slave to his sins Memories... Of world so clean, of life that gleamed Families... Left to die, derided demise Burning… A hot breeze of ash, like a fiery lash Yearning… Disfigured façade of a fallen God Slaves of Apocalypse Fearless we stand I guess we are all deaf and blind Slaves of Apocalypse The fallen humanity Bound by the weakness of our minds Futile... The sins take control, we have sold our souls Realize... We're destined to fall, we will pay the toll Restless... Hearts sacrificed, to dwell in our lies Painless... We paid the price now we're cut down to size Caught in the darkness and there's no way out Weak and ashamed before the God we have doubt Crawling in dust, life we've disowned Vehement, we've slain all that we've owned Slaves of Apocalypse Fearless we stand I guess we are all deaf and blind Slaves of Apocalypse The fallen humanity Entangled by anger that's rotten our hearts and our minds

Why a good man is always hard to find? No righteous man under the sun But you’re worst of all this mankind A devil’s child in disguise Oh don’t you hide away, you still have your price to pay Wicked man – you will die! Now you’re seeking peace of mind, but it’s not for you to find No, it is time to fade away Lawless Master of evil deeds Lawless Your hated enemy Your dreadful crimes will haunt your body and your soul There is no chance for your redemption anymore And when you close your eyes what is it that you see? Every man you have crossed, your hated enemies

Hey, you fools! Gather ‘round! Come on and get rich while you play I’ve got for you a sack of gold So who’s gonna ride the gravy train? Stick to my promise and you’ll be free But it excludes you being free from me And in the end you realize Your worthless will can’t save you from demise Is there a thing that’s better, than not having to Decide for yourself? Now you can see You’ll never take from me A grip of your feeble brain Blackjack, no gain You call it what you may But in the end it’s dust to dust Ardorless sun – the tunnel ends Just like my brief journey through your veins I brought the pleasure and pain – and now you see Your life was done the moment you met me If you can dream it means you’re still alive But in your life I pull the strings Now you can see You’ll never take from me A grip of your feeble brain Blackjack, no gain You call it what you may But in the end it’s dust to dust Can’t get away

7.	Anneliese (The Exorcist) 06:26	lyrics	buy track
You cry, dreaming awake Morbid voices calling your name When was the last time you heard the latin rites (… Divinam virtute, in infernum detrude. Amen.) Helpless you stand, your daughter cries (… Divinam virtute, in infernum detrude. Amen.) In my veins – genocide In my brain – suicide Once fragile beauty, now agony within (… Divinam virtute, in infernum detrude. Amen.) Atonement over the life in sin (… Divinam virtute, in infernum detrude. Amen.) It’s more than meets the eye Sole virtue trapped inside Praising Satan, speaking in tongues Secluded your body dies In my veins – genocide In my brain – suicide
8.	Eclipse 07:05	lyrics	buy track
Maybe I’m numb to all that flows around me Eyes wide, yet nothing’s seen How I crave to reconcile With the stream that crafted me Grasping greedily every word of advice Yet every wasted night fades into new day’s light Daylight is glowing, but in the light it shines You wouldn’t notice even if you tried That I’ll never become one of them Nor I’ll never be free again Hey you, once you showed me how to pretend My friend… I try to keep your words in my mind They used to give me strength To bear all my demons inside But now they seem to fail I know my stained soul will no longer abide And single frown affects me more than million smiles Daylight is glowing, but in the light it shines You wouldn’t notice even if you tried That I’ll never become one of them Nor I’ll never be free again Hey you, once you showed me how to pretend Scenes recurring in my mind Try to stop the crimson tide Say my name, gaze to the sky Sun has set and I have died
9.	Ghosts of Salem 05:17	lyrics	buy track
Though systems fall and nations wither It seems there’s eternal supremacy Of burning stakes … And every time collective mind decays Awaken ghosts of Salem Each drop of blood spilled for the mass delusion Entrench the shrine of Salem Their vile faces contort in fear They hate for no reason revealed Here comes the time when “they” change into “it” … And every time collective mind decays Awaken ghosts of Salem Each drop of blood spilled for the mass delusion Entrench the shrine of Salem Mistaken for justice – the pure lynch Bloodthirsty mob’s insanity Just common people in the crowd Uncover the grime of their souls Ghosts of Salem...
