1. Crushblade

Roadkill on information highway
Stunned by the punch of death
Empire of viruses, no one is safe

The vermin of our age breeding
Ideals stomped to the ground
Battle the invisible, no one can win

Take heed
You cannot hide
We will writhe in agony
Head first
Through the bottle neck
Incomplete and engulfed in flames

Yearning, heart burning
For something I cannot feel (Endless!)
Endlessly searching
For solution to set me free (Crush!)
Crushing, deceiving
All the enemies I see (Within!)
Within, the reason
Tells the enemy is me

Crushed – crushed – you're crushed

Overrun by mass of knowledge
Deathblow to our minds
Encrypted formulas, unsolved for life

Headshot to join conception
Errors in perfect divine
Infinite endless resources = obsolete wars?

2. Paint Me Dead

Haunting visions appear at night
An urge to paint them to store this sight
Empty canvas, empty room
Distorted figure is taking form

Paint me dead with a smile upon my face
Breathe life into my frost-bitten stare

See the world burn in our eyes

Sometimes the dark is far too much to handle
Paint this scene with the colors of your blood and your soul

Painting darkness to save the light
The premonition come to life
Breathing slowly, something stirs
The canvas falls with red moonrise

Paint me dead but with mask of life
Let my chalk white face touch the afterlife

See the world burn in our eyes

Sometimes the dark is far too much to handle
Paint this scene with the colors of your blood and your soul
Preserved in time – this moment I'd forever
Between these frames, life and death will shine as one tonight

3. Ecstacy

Lights are flashing
And world starts spinning
The deadly beat begins to pulsate

Frantic movements
Unawareness
Inner systems sudden overload

Follow me, to ecstasy

Ignite the heat
And come, like the rain
Bright flame burns tonight

Howl and scream
And come, like the rain
Lust binds, our lies entwined

Rhythmic patterns
Unknown figures
In rapidly floating mindstream

Subtle gestures
An invitation
To the clash of godless energy

4. One More Day

The storm is here again to wash the sins away
Do you think there's a sense to it all?
Who still believes in love to last a thousand days?
Who told you what was once there is gone?

Nations will fall again
Destiny calls, I hear it calling me in vain

Turn your eyes, walk away, on this cold winter day
In the center of my world you're sacred
If we try one more day these fears will fade away
I am calling you, calling again

Subconscious design, the pattern of our lives
When I can't seem to face a new dawn
Reaching to the mind, the fire in your eyes
My vision is a glass stained by lies

Inside the fire, safe from the fight
The future is ours if we can just take the pain

Turn your eyes, walk away on this cold winter day
In the center of my world you're sacred
If we try one more day these fears will fade away
I am calling you, calling again

Turn your eyes, walk away, on this cold winter day
When there's no one to turn to I'm with you
If we try one more day till this life fades to grey
I'll remember, remember your name – there's always one more day
There's always one more day

5. Neptune Island

The island lies in agony
Beneath a blazing sun
A man tied down, hopeless
He knows his time has come
They circle around him
High priests of the sun
Their faceless god descending
To take the nameless one

Rain
Fall on the dead
Paint
The skies red

The spell to bring back water
And the favour of the gods
Push the knife in deeper
This life fades to dust

Take me now and give rain to the crowd
Let my blood nourish the ground
I give my heart for this island

Fill the vials with the nectar of gods
And let hope rain to these shores
This is my gift for this island
...For Neptune

Fear now
The end is in sight
Foreseen
We've seen the light

Take me now and give rain to the crowd
Let my blood nourish the ground
I give my heart for this island

Fill the vials with the nectar of gods
And let hope rain to these shores
This is my gift for this island
...For Neptune

Rain
Fall on the dead
Paint
The skies red
Fear now
The end is in sight

6. Ever Since The Dawn

"Since I cannot stay,
Please pass these words along"

Daylight
You can only wake up once from a dream
This cold hand path leads to turmoil

New moon is cold

Tomorrow's gone
Yesterday's no more
Threshold of death in slow crossing

New blood is gone
Heart beats no more
The end's been awaiting ever since the dawn

Midnight
The coldest caress of winter
Seduced by the taste of poison

The taste of blood

Tomorrow's gone
Yesterday's no more
Threshold of death in slow crossing

New blood is gone
Heart beats no more
The end's been awaiting ever since the dawn

"This will be the first of thousand times
The blackest kind of blasphemy"

7. These Cold Deserted Shores

Life is illusion
Yet there's no way to turn
The years that haunt us
What's left for me to learn?
Another life we long for

Fly away on the winds of endeavour
Seek the star that is only for you
Here we stand on this bridge to forever
I know I'll meet you once again down
The path

Life is a season
one summer day of light
I'm comprehending
We must give up the fight
Break the chains of this worlds

Fly away on the winds of endeavour
Seek the star that is only for you
Here we stand on this bridge to forever
I know I'll meet you once again down, down, down
The path

And as you sailed the river, did you get the key?
To mass utopia, and will you wait for me?
Red waves that race against these cold deserted shores
Will drown the tears of living in the abyss forevermore

Oh have you seen it,
The light beyond that sea?
Or are we dreaming
The void won't set us free.
Break the chains of this world
End my fear and anger

Fly away on the winds of endeavour
Seek the star that is only for you
Here we stand on this bridge to forever
I know I'll meet you once again

Fly away on the winds of endeavour
Find the trail that leads out to the light
Sail away, there, beyond the horizons
Feel the starlight guiding you back home

8. Blizzard

We're marching on
Through ice and through snow
Determined to reach our goal
We're sailing forth
To thundering grounds
Don't know if there's an end to this war

Hold on – stay strong – once more
As one – our hearts – beat on

While the blizzard goes on
We have to carry on
We must fight back and never give in
If we stand and stay strong
Hold unyielding through the storm
We may live on to see a new dawn

I know I have
Just minutes to live
Well, there's a whole lifetime to die
Oblivious
To voices outside
Ideals fall like castles on sand

Hold on – stay strong – once more
As one – our hearts – beat on

While the blizzard goes on
We have to carry on
We must fight back and never give in
If we stand and stay strong
Hold unyielding through the storm
We may live on to see a new dawn

9. Zero Toxic

A little luck is all it takes
Let's draw a new line on the horizon
Tonight
The glimpse of hope in its purest form
A virtue in bloom

The moon and sun – they dance with us
The stars are aligned for journey
Called life
Silver linings in path of gold
The reapers and the harvest

Hold – your – ground!
They can't pull you under
Don't – let – go!
They can't drag you down

Nothing toxic, nothing unclear
Blue eyes that hide no lies
Nothing toxic, pure honesty
Innocence will save the world

An enchanting hour in time
Swaying to same tune
Forever!
By glowing embers, a sparkling stone
A new dawn at horizon

Hold – your – ground!
They can't pull you under
Don't – let – go!
They can't drag you down
Take – your – time!

10. Saints Of Sulphur

"Welcome to the frontline. This is our story."

The Darkest Of Winters

Dark rain falls upon the melting snow
Horizon's end is glowing in red

Blood on the snow
A letter from home
Is something to die for

Dreaming of hope
Hoping to dream
Sleepwalking to tomorrow

Come what may
The spirit is alive
And the flame will never
Cease to burn
Like the northern star

No eye from heaven can see
Lost in dreams that will cease to be

Blinded by snow
In winter's embrace
Only the strongest survive

In darkest of days
The homeland's grace
Will shine upon us all

The Outbreak

Alarming sounds break the silence
The attack has begun
Death comes with swift wings
Shrieking cries in air
Satan's waltzer is spinning faster
Who's the next to fall?
Russian roulette with fully loaded gun
That knows your name

Why do we fear?
We're all lost somehow
Doomed from the start
Precious to no one

In for the kill
Fire at will
The mission is to annihilate

"Maintain radio silence on all frequencies..."

The Funeral Fog

"This is it. The scene I saw in a dram.
The premonition come to life.
A battalion of no-hopers lie on the ground in eerie silence.
Funeral fog covers the land.
Slowly I'm falling to my knees.
The burden & relief. This coldness is killing me.
I close my eyes and enter the ever-forgiving darkness."

"Dark as the dead of the night was my world
When I opened my eyes.
Who's that lying on the snow?
A familiar face but I can't remember...
Pool of heart blood. An elegy that no one hears.
No death bed repentance but a sigh for the loss of promised future."

"Through the fog tolls the funeral bell"

The Heartland Awaits

I can hear the voice
The whispers in the wind
That call my name
To leave behind
The six feet of sand
That hides the hearts
Of battlefield

The heartland is calling its own
To coffin home
The heartland is waiting its own
To burial home

I'm coming home
I'm coming home

"Lakes are frozen, rivers are dead
Through the clouds, like ashes
The red moon stares

The wind whispers
The funeral march
This is the last chapter
On our journey home

For the fallen saints
In sulphuric feast
Rest in peace"
