1. The Man Of Steel
Ultimate in body and soul
Every cell hard as diamond
Every thought crystal clear
Unbending
Unbreakable
Untamed free and wild spirit
Fearless, obeying no one
The man of steel
Able to stand the heat of god-forsaken deserts
And the cold breezes of nordic hells
Crushing with the embrace of sole power
Cold and strict life force
The man of steel
Forever going
Never stopping
Never surrendering
Extreme in brilliance and courage
Rise with the man of steel
Strike with the man of steel
Drink in honour of the man of steel
Hold the banner of the man of steel
March with the man of steel
Rejoice with the man of steel
Die for the man of steel
Obey every command given by the man of steel
2. Death Bride
The mortuary horses
Were galloping merrily
When taking her away
For it was not just her funeral
But also our wedding day
In the hearse
Her beautiful coffin
Our blessed nuptial bed
How sweet and delicate the bride
So lively, even when dead
I vex my heart alone
She is at rest
They buried her
With a stone on her chest
I inhale her decay
I take her into my breath
I come upon the grave
My bride in death
3. The Rotting Trophy
Suck the blood from my veins
Cut me down, desecrate my grave
Bleed me dry and burn my skin
Grind my bones, let the journey begin
Like an empty vessel
Desolate
You have it now
But my spirit reigns again
Now, you down!
The tide has changed
There is no way out
You are gonna pay
In my destination
There is no use for hands
The secrets of that world
The eyes cannot see
In the comfort of my earthly grave
Lies the rotting trophy
Of your shallow victory
I let the worms devour my flesh
I am done with this planet's bloody mess
4. Curved Horizon
The agarthian masters sitting in their throne room
In deep meditation watching the surface-world's doom
The greed of mankind turned the world into a disgrace
Now everything will be destroyed by the ancient superior race
The purifying death blow beneath the earth's core
Seven deadly saucers rising through the ocean floor
No tears are shed when the exterior world dies
Into the polar opening our vimana flies
Winter darkness I have faced
And the shine of the summer night
Now I have come down here
To the world of eternal light
The forbidden city Shamballah
Beyond the curved horizon
The shrine of the greatest wonders
I've ever laid my eyes on
5. When The Wind Howled With A Human Voice
People standing silently
Staring at the sky
The colours there gathering
Suffering trees sigh
There is no one to warn them now
No one to raise his voice
The shadow passing by
All that is living is starting to die
The May rain will fall
The end of it all
The end of the world
Buried under the ruins of the city
Burnt by the shattering sun
The failure of the creation
The end has begun
Drifting in the river of life
Polluted by the human hand
The shadow passes by
No one left to stand
The May rain will fall
The end of it all
Nature cries, the view is shivering
Air is too heavy to breathe
Trees dance in anxiety
A civilization too proud
The concrete jungle collapsing, falling to dust
The angels of the blind god laughing
The lesson of babylon forgotten centuries ago
Ears are bleeding
Under the waves of unbearable noise
Nature cries
The wind howls with a human voice
People standing silently
Staring at the sky
The colours there gathering
It's time to say goodbye
The end
6. Heavy Drinker
I am on the streets again
In my head a chaotic swarm
This night will be cold
Infernal liquids keep me warm
Left alone, no friends in sight
The streets are full of human scum
Don't know where I shall sleep tonight
Will tomorrow even come?
Lord have mercy on my soul
I feel sick inside
Unable to find my goal
Out of the blue, a familiar face
A bottle of nitrate in my hand
I am led to another place
Sniffing and drinking
Swallowing unknown pills
Laughing and crying
In every corner new thrills
It's seven days and seven nights
Since I was shanghaied from my home
Now I lie in someone's basement
And I do not know where to go... next!
7. The God Behind The God
Passionate onanists standing under the crucifix
The heavens are pouring tears for the nailed one
A wall of flesh is build with human bricks
When the demiurge reigns supreme the true god is done
The false prophets of the Old Testament vomiting a thousand lies
Man-made rules tied together with the saviour's blood
But the ones within the truth are opening their eyes
Fearlessly encountering the god behind the god
Sacred names printed with gold on black parchaments
Truth decoded from meaningless paraphrases
Underground sects performing pure sacraments
Summoning the hermaphrodite god of multiple faces
The children of Bethlehem are buried under the mourner's bench
But their souls dance high above in the heavenly hall
Transcendental flowers cover the profane stench
At the feet of the pharisees the earth-bound maggots crawl
"Now when the heavens had consolidated themselves along with their forces and all their
administration, the prime parent became insolent. And he was honored by all the army of angels. And all
the gods and their angels gave blessing and honor to him. And for his part, he was delighted and continually
boasted, saying to them,
"I have no need of anyone." He said, "It is I who am God, and there is no other one that exists apart from me.
I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight:
I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron.
And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest
know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.
I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God
beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me.
That they may know from the rising of the sun, and
from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the
Lord, and there is none else.
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace,
and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the
iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third
and fourth generation of them that hate me."
And when he said this, he sinned against all the
immortal beings who give answer. And they laid it to
his charge.
Then when Pistis saw the impiety of the chief ruler,
she was filled with anger. She was invisible. She said,
"You are mistaken, Samael," (that is, "blind god").
"There is an immortal man of light who has been in
existence before you, and who will appear among
your modelled forms; he will trample you to scorn,
just as potter's clay is pounded. And you will descend
to your mother, the abyss, along with those that
belong to you.
For at the consummation of your works, the entire
defect that has become visible out of the truth will be
abolished, and it will cease to be, and will be like what
has never been."
The god behind the god.
8. Perpetual Motion
You gave yourself to me
That was not enough
I need more than anyone can ever give
I won't stay middle of the road
I will go to extremes
I want to learn what it means to "really live"
Now I purify my soul in the flames of your hatred
I offer my flesh to be burnt in your hellfire
But I will never return to the temple of your heart
I will never be captured
I set fire to our love's funeral pyre
When the new day dawns
I am gone
Here I go again
I am on the run!
