1. The Death Heritage

For this is your empire
This is your playing court
Here you own the night
Let them fear you all

The only true is blood
Staring through the eyes of death
Hear the howling beasts
Fear their bloodlust

I see the splendour
The secrets of hell
From the ashes
Again the death will rise
You show no mercy
Unleash the ancient fears
The Death Heritage – we live for the kill

I hear the tortured screams
Where the fight has just begun
Feel the hopeless breath
Agonizing sound of Death

Paralyzed through fear
Struggling for our will to lie
The final curtain falls
Where the last stands still

My blood – my fear – my soul
The sounds of Death
It's time to bleed

My blood – my fear – my soul
I shoot your faith straight to hell

You rise up from the deep
To bring the end of time
Extinction awaits for all
Pure and endless pain

The rage that burns inside
When we all are gone
Unleash the night
A new world is born

He ruled the night
He filled our soul with dread
Suffering despair
Die for fearless pain

The fire that burns around
We went through living hell
The dead reborn

2. Buried Alive

In the land of broken faceless minds
The fury of the mighty shield, God's curse
Captured in lies, sentenced
As the rage of blood flows like rain

For the power of lions and men
We let them suffer in pain – again!
We lead the forces – our path has been laid

You will never see what they see
When you die for your dream
You will never feel what they feel
Because you're buried alive

We reach the gate, the tunes of war are blown
The buried smell of death, your fear
We suffocate their life!
They need a slave to do the kill

Walls of temple, a broken existence
The price of war must be paid
Dead – free of all our sins
I see the fire again

Nothing will be like when a dead man cries
Suffocate, I'm buried alive
Nothing will be heard, tremble with fear
Blind, I'm buried alive

3. Blood, Torture And Death

Once we were scum of the Earth
Now we're forces of death
Struggling the souls of human race

Bound by chains, the savior of hate
Awaiting the day to die
Soldiers defy – my final breath

Broken and defeated
Bring me to the afterlife
Bring me to the end
Blood, torture and death

Blind the hate of the world
Crush the enemies of hope
Conquer the land of the slaves

Spread the seed, change their way
The world falls into dark
Fuelled by hate, crucify (the might)

Blood, torture and death
Blood, torture and death

Broken and defeated
Bring me to the afterlife
Bring me to the end
Blood, torture and death

Once we were scum of the Earth
Now we're forces of death
Struggling the souls of human race

Bound by chains, the savior of hate
Awaiting the day to die
Soldiers defy – my final breath

4. To The Empire Of Madness

I pull the trigger, release the faithless fear
The sign of daemons appears
He's been called where the crusher strikes back
The age of terror, illusions and death
One thousand years of tyranny and blood
Soon a new world will arise from the deep

We fight once more against the Age of Fear
From ashes to ashes and dust to dust
We keep the faith alive, now everything will burn
Sons of fire – release me from this world

To the Empire of Madness
For all the blood and death
To the Empire of Madness
When all is gone, we turn into dust

We fight to die – my hate will grow again
We stand alone – I will have revenge
The demons' army – the weapons they fear
The number of the beasts released
And those who chose to stand up and fight
Leave the land; the flame arises again

There is no time to hesitate
The old time leaves – no rest in peace
In the face of certain death

We fight once more...

5. Downfall Of Heaven

Death will strike again

I feel the wrath – this is the final stand
I feel the shame – when I cross your path

I want to hear the screams
I want to feel the pain
I will control your mind and thoughts
I've searched for blood – the vengeance unfolds
For every single thing – your destiny is mine

Your destiny is mine!

I walk the path of life again
This is something I shall not forget

Never doubt the power of life
I will stand my ground for my god
Guard your strength
Approaching the end

Light your sign
March toward Death

I see your world – before it starts to burn
I feel the hate – when you crushed the ground

Open the gates of hell
I see the fire burn
A new-found path – and endless wrath
The army rises – the shadows of past
Only vengeance will give me pleasure

So now we fight the world again
An ancient legion breaks the chains
We draw our strength rising to the sky
Let the Heaven fall once again
Let the Heaven fall once again

I brought to life
My legions unleashed
With dark deception
they serve to kill
The downfall of Heaven
It will never rise again

6. Stillborn

Explode the fire of ravage
Five times I face the breathless
My thoughts are ruling the world
In search for freedom I draw the lines

One million times before I die
To feel the dark as I fall apart
Struggle against the way of life
In search for dreams
I cry for my soul

Caught in the lie of godless crime
You are stillborn – no feelings are mine
Don't throw the page – don't throw the life
You are stillborn – vanish through the sky

Living between life and death
Feeling the blind so unreal
Losing your mind as gone blind
Reborn without a sense

Screaming, dying, fearing the dark
Shattered frames of death
Reborn a goddamned lie
Stillborn – there's no way back

Reborn a world of silence
Five times I walk the path
Again I'm fearing the unknown
A deadly poison – the only way to be

Living between life and death
Feeling the blind so unreal
Losing your mind as gone blind
Reborn without a sense

Feeling empty inside yourself
Shattered frames of death
Reborn a goddamned lie
Stillborn – there's no way back

There's no way back – stillborn

7. Liars To The Lions

Their lies are falling
A thousand smiles
No matter how you scream
For vengeance

I wanna see you bleed
A thousand dead
to drain you to a quiet place

I see the Death
Torture your soul
You call the name of your god

Can't waiting, can't breathing
Until I'm final death
Still lying, still praying
I'm not afraid of you
Can't seeing, can't screaming
I've reached the end of life
I'm waiting, I'm fearing
Until the lions' law

And now your life is ending
For all the lies you've done
The flesh ripped in half
Throw away your soul

Your blood spilled out
We don't give a fuck
Bleed for the gods
Terminate with fear and hate

I dread his wearing
A thousand times
It sets me free to fear your hate

My thoughts are crushing
In thousand pieces
How long it takes until you fall

I see the fear
I rip your flesh
And you will never rise again

Can't waiting, can't breathing
Until I'm final death
Still lying, still praying
I'm not afraid of you
Can't seeing, can't screaming
I've reached the end of life
I'm waiting, I'm fearing
Until the lion's – the lions' law

8. Rise Again

How do you breathe in the fire,
How do you walk with fear?
Tell me what's so grand
Tell me is this the end

Fire – let them burn
Fire – kill them all
But a growing pain cannot explain behavior

Fire – strike back
Fire – no escape
Throw your blood, I'll be waiting for resistance

When time is despised
The mindless goes blind
What will there be left?
Your blood on the field
And there will be dead
Beside the new-born
A fear of the unknown
Death in the shape

In Death – we shall conquer the night
In Death – we are searching for more
In Death – we swallow the lies
In Death – we will rise again

9. Son Of Lies

I have destroyed every sign of your life
Rot in hell – son of a bastard rise
There is no lie that I can't survive
Your self-deception, killed by your god

When it's time to dying
It's always time for crying
Can't you see, I'm not your enemy

Son of lies
We stroke the fear so deep
Son of lies
Your visions still remain

Into the lies

Arise from the sea of lies
Escape towards my fears

The shades of vengeance
Stand before my eyes

Despise all the weak
Unfold forgotten time
The death revenge
Terrorize with pain

Will you lie again?
Will you fear me?
You have to die for me
I have to be the one

You have to be the one
Son of lies
You have to be the last one

10. Nocturnal Hymns II (The Death Anthem)

We suffer their lives
The chains of despair
Eternally we'll crush and bleed
Running through woods they're so black

Prophets of lies
Be free from their pain
They fear the night of the unholy shield
Before we die by war

So the death finally comes to us
The foreign might could be crushed
We face the death with pride
Only proud men stand 'till the end
And all the night seems to fade
A dark night – the ravens fly
With raw and brutal force
Unholy legions break the temple doors

Out of the night – into the dark
Where demons – dance by my side
And godless creatures – fight for their lives

The might is strong – The fear of the sword
The legions are ready to fight

No mercy for life
No fear of the line
Only a crowd of the brave

The ground at their feet
Soaked with blood
Our enemies' bodies around

I hear the thunder ashore
Awaiting the battle
No fear of the death

They shall be crushed – erase them from Earth
Shattered will – the demons unfold
My face is the last thing you will see
Pray for the beast – a desperate cry
Their hearts pound like never before
The world shall be your grave

The sign for a demon to attack
As the legion marches on
Ravenous crows drenched in seed
All that's left are the echoes of their cries

Behold the wrath of the fallen
The darkest pits in the abyss
The gates of hell open wide
Hear the anthem that speaks of our death

Hear the anthem of our death
