Metu Mortis
Skies are burning
Don't think just hide
From the horsemen
Striding with pride
There's no escape
Nowhere to go
Fire's devouring the life that I know
Plagued by our faith
Too late to atone
Death on us all
All around me
Worshippers chanting their cursed litany
Death and disease
Invoking angels on a killing spree
Metu Mortis
As far as the eye can see
Feasting with their flesh
My instinct takes me further
Chanting his advent
I hear their morbid cry
They call Thanatos
Run Run, don't think just run
Find somewhere safe, before they come
Don't think for a moment to turn back, just run
Madness, all around me
Bodies, piled up, burning
I scream out the last hope left in me
Wake me up
Wake me up
There's nowhere to run
Before my eyes
Everything stops
The one has come
To take my life
I open my arms and I pray
pray for the sweetest of gifts
Free me from all of this pain
Free me from all of this pain
He's coming closer to me
Lost in his eyes I can see
Pure incarnation of death
Free me from all of this pain
Moments of eternity
I Wait for my eternal sleep
Silent he then walks away
And damns me to live

Pulsating memories slow down
As shadows penetrate our mind
Embracing a new world in wonder
Memories cease to surrender
Now silence grows abstract and envelops the room
The man in black spreads his wings and waits in gloom
No mother shall weep, and no father shall cry
We are all mad men, a fallen thief as we die
Behind a veil of sadness
My mind is now my prison
Flickers of recognition
Of the allies I’ve lost
As symbols fade
And seasons pass
Whores gather
And judges shout
And now the silence grows, it envelops the room
The man in black spreads his wings and waits in gloom
No mother shall weep, and no father shall cry
We are all mad men, fallen thieves as we die
Up on the hills we stand
Fearing the red right hand
And now there is nothing more than names on a grave
As they all become symbols of faces that fade
Born in a nameless land we all stand and fall
With black and heavy hearts, so poisoned we crawl
Now silence grows abstract and envelops the room
The man in black spreads his wings and waits in gloom
No mother shall weep, and no father shall cry
We are all mad men, fallen thieves as we die

Come to me at last
A child in the end
Pursue your path
You've witnessed the truth
Right before your eyes
Our true fate
Purged by our hands
In the afterlife
They await
Lost in your word, now I realize
There is a reason I'm here
Saved from the depths of the darkest night
My role is still incomplete
I've seen with my eyes
The corruption of humankind
Doomed to our demise
You've seen our come and then watched them die
You followed my path and you testified
Before your eyes, I've seen my reason to be
There is one last soul to purify
One last corrupted to sacrifice
Torn by the truth right before my eyes
I know the last one is me
I know who I am
The incarnation of pestilence
I will join their end
You've seen our come and then watched them die
You followed my path and you testified
Before your eyes
This is your reason to be
Now I see the end
Purged by your fierce grace
I will cross this gate
Death, my last embrace

Wie schwer ist das Leben als Dummer August
Sein vollständiges Dasein steht im Dienst des grossen Trauerns
Das leidige Trauern endet nur, wenn man seine sterbliche Hülle abwirft und die stumme Maske aufsetzt
In das Sterben tönen die Echos des Lebens mit trister Resonanz
Lasst unsere Taten ewig nachhallen durch die Herzen und Seelen der Zuschauer
Lasst unser Leben weder Verzweiflungstat noch Reflex sein
