Devil's Law
She'll bring the mountain down to the tideless shore
And fill the ocean with her broken bloody thorns
Black rain descends upon me, eats this hollow soul
She'll cast a shadow on this land ... forevermore
We are the Magistrate of Fury
And She will find your fatal flaw
We are the judge to your jury
And She will bring the Devil's Law
Lady of darkness hears what festers in your mind
She’ll spin a web of lies and vanquish all your kind
Unveils a magic spell - Umlacatatoo!
Now you will follow her into your waiting tomb
We are the Magistrate of Fury
And She will find your fatal flaw
We are the judge to your jury
And she will bring the devil's law
Yes, I think it was today - that she took my soul away
I no longer see my self - Am I lost under her spell?
Yes, I think it was today - that she took my soul away
I no longer see my self - I'm lost under her spell!
Black rain descends upon me, eats this hollow soul
She'll cast a shadow on us dead forevermore

Blind
open your eyes to what’s under the sun
heading to shadow
see what you have done
fire up the minions feed them on your fear
driving us backwards
do you know the year?
Are you blind?
Have you seen the sky?
what have you won
once all we have is gone?
torture the ground and you ravish the seas
how can you sleep as you spread your disease?
you hide your head when we dish out the blame
science and truth can be one and the same
Are you blind?
Have you seen the sky?
Aren’t you wrong?
we could be so strong
Yeah the world we’re fighting for
Dies without a sound
Till the wall of lies comes crashing down…
watch for the reaper to sharpen his scythe
dire consequences for all of your pride
one final poison you drink from the well
power and money buy you into hell

Angels of Oblivion
sunlight streaming through the glass
finds me at my critical mass
angel voices drifting past
hear a calling from the cloud
and the music, clear and loud
lead me to my native soil
close the door on this mortal coil
Angels of Oblivion
Demolish my Dream
Angels of Oblivion
passing time aware that I
have been waiting for a sign
hands of fate standing firm
pave the way for the conqueror worm
Angels of Oblivion
Deliver my Dream
Angels of Oblivion
when and where I might arrive
keep me free, my spirit alive
soaring off to my rebirth
I am no longer of this earth…..

Rise of Evil
The rise of evil plagued us all our lives
As we fell from grace to tomb
Woven winds sang silent death march hymns
Down the hall of golden ruin
The time has come to bare your mercy
Feel your will, slip away
Elijah reborn prophet of the old
Twelve jars of water in his hands
The fateful all fall down to their knees
Brood of vipers claim their god
The time has come to bare your mercy
Feel your will, slip away
Behold, I pray for you
And your soul cast to fire
Pools of sorrow surrounding you
I come to fulfill desire

Black Machine

Black Machine
pounding down your door
ripping up the floor
silencing your screams
The Black Machine
watch your every move
bound to disapprove
a mental guillotine
The Black Machine
await the fatal kiss
the serpent’s bleeding hiss
rising and obscene
The Black Machine
open up your eyes
it's madness mechanized
the likes you’ve never seen
The Black Machine
dare not make a sound
it spots you in the crowd
aiming laser beams
The Black Machine

Lycanthropy
Remember those words
Didn't they come to haunt you?
Leaving a life
free from us all
Seeking of truth
Once was suspended
In your lost world
of flesh and greed
Everyone shall crawl to see the light
Everyone will howl into the night
Hear the calling of the wizard
Feel the evil of the night
Wretched creatures crawling on you
As you fear for your life
I am the wolf
Cut of blood and fury
Lycanthropy
...lusting flesh of man
Everyone shall crawl to see the light
Everyone shall howl in to the night
Hear the calling of the wizard
Feel the evil of the night
Wretched creatures crawling on you
As you fear for your life
Bound to this curse
Under this affliction
I can not change
back to mortal man
Everyone will crawl to see the light
You and I shall howl into the night
Hear the calling of the wizard
Feel the evil of the night
Wretched creatures crawling on you
As you fear for your life

Retronaut

Retronaut
would you try to stop me
if you think you can?
finding my way backwards before the fall began
running from your history
lessons never learned
blindfolded in mystery when mistakes are returned
Retronaut alive
Retronaut in time
ethical disasters wash up on the shore
posing for a death mask
all we do is more
faces never changing
nor whats in the mind
action not intention; a thread that we entwine
Retronaut alive
Retronaut in time
shadow my memories
Retronaut is traveling
marching through the door
you can’t un-ring a bell
or un-declare a war
a page cannot be found
the link is obsolete
climb upon a paper moon
it fell into the street
Retronaut alive
Retronaut in time
curtain of a photo booth
closing in the time
colors change to black and white
words are made to rhyme
written in the rune stones
shall we disappear?
banished into exile
falling out down through the years
Retronaut alive
