1. Katana – The Moths And The Dragonflies / Katana – Mud

In the light of the blood red sun
the silhouette moves fast and serene.
Reflecting light from the shining blade,
blinding the sisters, watching the scene.

Grace was never taught to such perfection,
demonstration of the human domination.

In the vacuum closeness of the dark,
the clouds blotting out the stars.
The young boy intensifies the trance
and holds his breath in concentration.

Suddenly from out of nowhere
the air is shredded in explosion.
Wielding the blade so fiercely,
no one can see the motion.

Another moth to the ground,
another feast has begun.
Another moth to the ground,
another feast has begun.

Empty mind, open eyes,
slaughter, empty mind.

"This brainwashed community turned
against us and I can't seem to find the reason.
Recalling my father's memories, his visions and our
quiet life, the green valley surrounded by the hills.

Animosity didn't exist
or was it all a lie,
was it just a dream?"

Frostbitten feet
running across the muddy plains.
The weight on his shoulders,
a burden to carry, a life to save.

The last remains of his bloodline
collapsing on the stone cold floor
as darkness eats his consciousness.

His reason to live,
drawing her last breath but
oblivion takes his anxiety away.

He wakes up to find her gone,
buried under stony soil.
The rage and thoughts of revenge
makes his frozen blood boil.

Tranquilizing wind, deep in meditation,
roaming through my mind to
a time that was before.

In the time of happy days...

"Flashback to never-again,
tears are running down my face.
All was so perfect then in
the time of happy days!"

Flashback to the forbidden
city within the walls of clay,
flashback to the river of peril
and the beautiful day.

Flashback to the time at
the tombs on the emperor's land,
flashback to a night of sacrificing
for the sake of becoming a man.

"Everything was taken from us,
stripped to the core and forced away.
The clan head was executed for revolution,
were we ever so evil to anyone?"

Slaughter, envy,
hatred, humiliation.

You took away my dignity!
why should you be the one who decides
whether I should do this or that?
I'll destroy everything that you are!"

Suddenly from out of nowhere
the air is shredded in explosion.
Wielding the blade so fiercely,
no one can see the motion.

A dragonfly to the ground,
another feast has begun.
A dragonfly to the ground,
another feast has begun.

Katana!

3. The Farmer's Tale, Pt. 3 – Eaten By The Beasts

"Sweden, somewhere around J?nk?ping I've
abducted my client, I hope the pigs are hungry."

Slowly I move alongside your filthy cell
while I enjoy your obvious fear.
As you begin totremble and soil yourself
I mock you, now your end is near.

I long for you to die, it's time to say goodbye
while you're tied up, blind and crawling.
It's time for you to cry, your final lullaby,
I hope your God will hear you calling.

I will make sure you suffer a painful death,
I will define your horrid fate.
The pigs are fierce and hungry, eager to feast,
no time to waste, open the gate.

I long for you to die, it's time to say goodbye
while you're tied up, blind and crawling.
It's time for you to cry, your final lullaby,
I hope your God will hear you calling.

Let in the beasts,
unleash the horrors.
witness the feast,
eaten by the beasts.

Know this, I don't judge you.
You just need to disappear
while suffering!

The smell of blood arises as veins are ripped,
cut wounds from teeth of the giant.
Jaw and bones are thrashed, arms torn apart,
a morbid death awaits my client.

Your screams in agony fill
the cage, eyes in paralyzing fear.
The monsters dismember,
nothing remains but death in here.

Let in the beasts,
unleash the horrors.
witness the feast,
eaten by the beasts.

4. Slaughter In The Desert Room

Hunting my victim in the house of pleasure,
seven rooms to satisfy your every need.
Depravity mastered to perfection,
to the desert room I shall proceed.

"I want him removed and I want him
to know why he has to leave this place.
He should know I gave him all my best years,
tell him to his face!"

Surveillance on stand-by, the cover-up complete,
I'm moving like a ghost through ancient floors.
Focused on my mission leaves me no time to care
what is going on behind the doors.

"I want him removed and I want him
to know why he has to leave this place.
He should know I gave him all my best years,
tell him to his face!"

When the beauty of red has ended her deeds
I enter your world and show you the end of the line.
In the scent of the amazing beauty of red
the circumstances for your demise shall align.

Panic-stricken, frightened
and confused, with no way to
defend your pathetic excuse of
a life that will now end.

I twine my limbs around
you like a spider does a fly.
Heart beating machine gun fast,
I see the fear in your eye.

"I want him removed and I want him
to know why he has to leave this place.
He should know I gave him all my best years,
tell him to his face!"

When the beauty of red has ended her deeds
I take control of when you ought to die.
In the scent of the amazing beauty of red
I push the needle in deep into your eye.

5. Through The Eyes Of The Killer – Filing Teeth

As a ground rule, you don't get to speak at all,
and from now on you only answer to my call.
The agony you experience I can and will not hide,
but the collateral damage is up to you to decide.

Talk and pain will follow,
scream and pain will appear,
curse and pain will come.

Deliverance arrives
only when you whisper
the names I want to hear.

Detachment of lips
or cutting away red flesh,
call it what you deem fit.

Just preparing for the file,
making space, you could say,
for your teeth to be split.

Grinded, grinded to a swarf!

Exit is your only option,
the hard way of leaving,
the way of excruciating agony.

All hopes of continued life,
the sweet life you hoped for.
The most of what you had in mind
are now things that will never be.

Talk and pain will follow,
scream and pain will appear,
curse and pain will come.

Deliverance arrives only
when you whisper the names.

Detachment of lips
or cutting away red flesh,
call it what you deem fit.

Just preparing for the file,
making space, you could say,
for your teeth to be split.

6. Katana – Death Of The Meaning Of Life

My world explodes in ecstasy,
meaning of life exposed in pale blue.
I found my whole reason to be
as I laid my eyes on you.

Awakening the lunacy,
it stays with me forevermore.
Awakening the lunacy,
it stays with me forevermore.

My world explodes in violence as
I see the bullet rip through my heart,
reality giving way to pure red
as I tear their bodies apart.

Awakening the lunacy,
it stays with me forevermore.
Awakening the lunacy,
it stays with me forevermore.

Coincidence, tragedy, desperation...

To lose a love so pure by
the hands of a madman is so
tragically lose life itself,
this calls for revenge.

Breaking the silence,
the all-numbing silence.
Reality returning to me
with massive pain.

Two monsters were slain!

In the midst of a breath of
a broken heart, my broken heart,
a carnage sublime that kept
me slightly sane.

And my ranting train of thought
runs amok and stuns my brain and after
seeing the stars and finding heaven your
scent poured on me like summer rain.

My flower, my beautiful flower
a cosmic twist of the universe.
Stellar Nebula!

Coincidence, tragedy, desperation...

To lose a love so pure by
the hands of a madman is so
tragically lose life itself,
this calls for revenge.

Revenge...

7. Tasered / Ice Cage

Stop talking, soon your ability
to speak shall be no more.
Just let it go, just close the door!

Lying, waiting for death in your ice cage,
punishment for your uncontrollable rage.
Ingestion, while you slowly fade away,
your end is imminent no matter what you say.

Pronunciation of words are
worsening as your lips are growing numb.
Your m's and your p's and your b's are
rapidly deteriorating into nonsense.

Cold is the darkness that settles over me
as I take another life of a stranger.
I see it different than you might do here,
immune to your apologetic cries.

Soon your ability
to speak shall be no more
Just let it go, just close the door.

Lying, screaming for help in your ice cage,
penance to make you realize your flaws.
Waves of shivers are raging inside you,
death will come easy, why don't you cave in?

Cold is the darkness that settles over me
as I take another life of a stranger.
I see it different than you might do here,
immune to your apologetic cries.

8. Goodbye Tina

Heaven sent an angel-deer for me,
I was the saviour that chased the wolves away.
In the course of time betrayal laid its
hands upon you, leaving me in a world of grey.

Just a distant memory now,
a bittersweet mix of emotions.
the gaping hole you left behind filled
to the brim with death and destruction.

Forget the promises I made,
they don't matter anymore.
Now it is another me
reaching another shore.

And you, my dear, sentenced
yourself to end your days in misery.
Rotting away far from home,
your punishment for promiscuity.

Dismembering the surrogate-me,
abolishing evidence of his demise.
Nothing shall remain of his being,
arrivederci to all the lies.

The afternoon sun shining on your perfect body,
an the knowledge that you left me long ago
makes me sad and opens a door to Hell in my
mind and in your new all-time low.

Just a distant memory now,
a bittersweet mix of emotions.
the gaping hole you left behind filled
to the brim with death and destruction.

Forget the promises I made,
they don't matter anymore.
Now it is another me
reaching another shore.

Forget the promises I made,
they are forever gone.
I am another me closing
another door.

9. Tasered / Removal

Dusk, darkness, silence, excitement,
staring into the clients eyes.
Tasered, surprise, numbness arrives
when suppressing terror-reign dies.

A part of your removal, relax,
it's just part of your removal.
A part of your removal, relax,
it's just part of your removal.

Cold is the darkness that settles over me
as I take another life of a stranger but I
see it differently than you might do here,
immune to the apologetic cries.

Stealth, cold, guilt, begging for
your psychopathic life not to end.
Ice cold calculation, indifference
to how you repent.

A part of your removal, relax,
it's just part of your removal.
A part of your removal, relax,
it's just part of your removal.

Cold is the darkness that settles over me
as I take another life of a stranger but I
see it differently than you might do here,
immune to the apologetic cries.

12. Katana – Beheaded

Heat intensifies, pain so
majestic, sun burns through red
skies, the smell of blood so sick.

715 men will die here today
through their honor-bound oath.
Edge of shining metal piercing
skin and muscle, slashing both.

Beheaded...

Beheaded like a razor
cutting through arteries,
spilling blood in the sands.

Your bones will pave
our roads to mighty Seoul!

You've sealed your own tragic fate by
the atrocities committed in this hellhole.
We shall grant you no mercy, may the
Gods accept your rotten soul.

Death intensified, victory so
majestic, sun burns through red skies,
the smell of blood won't go away.

Beheaded...

Never again to spread any fear,
spilling the blood in these lands.
Through the wrath of the blade
your bloodthirst is sealed.

Spilling your blood in the sand, die!
