Fire (Live) 03:14
Fire burneth out hate, Fire in me, There's a fire in me, My spirit's on fire, So, let me dance to and fro, Spirit up and go, Let this fire light, Bring forth holy fire, Burn red embers, burn, I cometh, I stand, I'm on fire, on fire, I run through this pagan land, Burn away, The tin and dross, I'm here, I burned the cross, Power spirit, Take flight, Cometh day, Away night, Burn away, Burn away, Fire, fire, fire
2.
It is the darkest hour, The time has passed away, No more will the sky be blue, It is the end of days, Out among the field, My hands are cracked and bruised, I feel the falling rain, I hear the thunder boom, I feel a change coming, I hear the distant rumbling, I feel the earth shake, The heavens are about to break, O Harvester, I beg thee come, And reap what you have sown, The time is near, the hour is here, So, save us from our woe, Gather up the last good fruit, And curse this rotted tree, Jesus, come, and pluck us up, And burn these wicked weeds, Burn them, burn them down, Ahead is the hardest part, I know it's my part to play, And though, I will suffer much, The tears will be wiped away, A fool builds his house on the sand, And drinks from the bitter sea, The smell of death is strong, And the smoke makes it hard to see, I feel a change coming, I hear the distant rumbling, I feel the earth shake, The heavens are about to break, O Harvester, I beg thee come, And reap what you have sown, (Reap what you have sown) The time is near, the hour is here, So, save us from our woe, (Save us from our woe) Gather up the last good fruit, And curse this rotted tree, (Curse this rotted tree) Jesus, come, and pluck us up, And burn these wicked weeds, (Burn these wicked weeds) Burn them, burn them down, I've been drenched in autumn rain, The wind blows through my hair, Blinded eyes and muted skies, The savor of despair, Carried on through desperate odds, Fire burns inside, The rotten tree beneath my feet, I will not denied, O Harvester, I call you down, Do what must be done, Take revenge upon this world, For every drop of blood, We call to thee, we beg you see, Our blood calls from the grave, Our final cries, our sacrifice, Jesus, we must be saved, Harvester come, harvester come, Harvester come and save us, Harvester come, harvester come, Harvester come and save us, Harvester come, harvester come, Harvester come and save us, Harvester come, harvester come, Harvester come and save us!

Blinding freeze as it all falls down Twisted trees wither to the ground Sick disease spreads out like a cloud It grabs my arm as I cry out Shuddering in the view of it There's nothing to be done Time bleeds on like a saint The end is near no time to wait The hour will disintegrate Crumble neath our heel There's nothing left here to save There's nothing left to heal So, let the curse unfurl Cover it over the whole world Break their teeth and bust their bones The seeds have been sewn I'm willing to suffer it all Just to watch the pieces fall Justice must be paid For what they've done this day Don't hesitate when it's at door An hour's wait and then no more Short a space keep your faith Freedom cometh in strange ways So just hold on, just hold on The day has almost come
4.
Today is the day The fire is stoked The key has been turned And shoved down our throat Blackened the air by reason of it Down falls the witch into the pit And up comes the smoke They breathe and they choke The locusts escape their jail Statue on the sea Oh, liberty One more coin down the wishing well Run to the east, run to the west There's no escape from this Rip your heart out Straight from your chest Raise it up high, your valentine Offered to the master mind The bloody lips sang, "You are mine" "You are mine" "You are mine" Oh, burn the witch, gather the sticks We gotta get the fire high It's coming down, they're (coming) now Still they don't understand why We built you all, so you'd fall And everything fell into place You will obey, because we say This is the end of the human race This is the end, finale has come We have eaten the sun We are the worms and we are the judge So pray and obey, repent and abstain We stand in your holy place So deck us in gold, with fortune untold God reflected is what we behold Today's the day Today's the day Today
5.
Back, back, back, Back, back, back, Touch not the anointed, Do the prophets no harm, Sound loudly the alarm, Caution to the wind, No such thing, I'm carrying the message appointed, Jump on my steed and go, My armor has been polished, It shines in the night sky, No fear is upon me as I ride, The trail is before me, Though dark and cold, I'm rising in the spirit, Beware to those before me, I've waited all my life, For this moment to go forth, So I ride, sword at my side, I ride. My armor has been polished, It shines in the night sky, No fear is upon me as I ride, The trail is before me, Dark and cold, I'm rising in the spirit, Beware to those before me.
6.
The sirens were singing, told me where to go Their tale was misleading to where I didn't know Broken and reeling, lost grip on my soul Laying there bleeding like a rabbit in the snow Oh. then the hour The moon cast its shadow The unholy gaze Gathered in place What have I done? Oh, where did I go? Why have I come here? I don't know... Who even am I? My face is a ghost Who's laying here bleeding Face down in the snow? Chasing the sun, counting our days Everyone left me, alone and afraid I'm out of time, no deal I can make They finally caught me, there's no escape Our time here is fleeting, everyone knows Laying here bleeding, a rabbit in the snow
7.
You can't stop me You can't stop me Spirit rises and conforms Spins inside like a storm I know you wanted me Desired me But I am free, I am free, I am free Stop now, I say, in Jesus' name Back away, back away, back away Climbing to the top I'll never stop Steel I am steel I am Reinforced Mission-bound A great rebuke unto thee Begone dark one from me I am free You'll never, never stop me You can't stop me! You can't stop me! You can't stop me! You can't stop me! You can't stop me! You can't stop me!
8.
A child I was when I was young I had someone to hold my hand Then, one day, I put my toys away Stood up and became a man Took up my cross, and my burden, Shod my feet and I went Walked the path, kept moving forward I knew my task was Heaven sent Standing at the threshold Sword in my hand Take a breath and bravely go A child no more, I am a man Heavy cross, burden to bear Hidden pain down deep inside Summon strength in my despair I'm not weak, I will not hide Going toward the day of reckoning I know I will surely die But as I a man I keep going Unlike a child I will not hide Stand up tall and face you burden If you believe you will be tried Put away your wicked playthings Get on your horse, go forth, and ride
9.
Waiting here I am Standing here with sword in hand Ready for the end Come not against me You will have no victory Try and you will see Spirit-filled, anointed Touch me not I say Back away back away You know these are the end of days! Standing here I am Stood in darkness now in light Standing here I am Those in darkness have not sight But standing here I am Visions of failure get away! Standing here I am I will stand until that day! And standing here I am Fall upon your knees Do not come against me The wind upon the trees blowing Jesus in the wind The storms and rain will rip and rend You know this is the end! This is the final hour Growing now is my power The shadows shift the wine is sour The field is covered with dying flowers Still here I am
10.
Complacent and vacant Visage to behold Vermilion floods my vision My blood runs cold Take one step forward Fallen off the board There they are where they shouldn't be In the Temple of the King Violence sick had their pick Of the opportunities Smiled at me, like I couldn't see Exactly what they think Over and over, I try just to see We try, how we try just to proceed Here comes the shadow dance Mad romance, bloodstained hands Do you think the gallows are reserved for me? That severed head, crimson red Turning blue, the word is gone from you Do you think you won't be brought down too? Here it comes, here it comes, rain down Vermilion blood, so much we'll drown Raining down, rain it down, oh Rain it down on me, I'm ready, I'm ready, steady now Take a breath as the power Overflows, overflows I'm not afraid Can you say the same?
11.
Stumbled in this place Wind upon my face Sky wept in vain Broken frame Torment of the saints Ground cried out our names On we go with no tomorrow And on we go into the unknown I feel alone In space on my own Am I the only one? Fallen out of hand Buried in the sand There's nowhere left to stand Beset surrounded on all sides By smiling antichrists Bring me home Bring me closer I want to feel the warmth of your light Jesus come, This world's been undone There must be an end to this night Masquerade this pain Broken in the rain Feeling obstruct again The scene in me Buried by the sea so deep Broken in defeat trampled underneath To make war with this beast For Jesus Christ, we're prepared to die Our final sacrifice Open wide the mouth of madness in the dark Abyssal bleeding heart Flood out like skin flailing in the wind Abomination of desolation standing In the mirror of your eyes Inside, it will arise Like the flies on the dead The voices in your head become a flood As the blood trickles down Your bright eyes shine like the sun
12.
I saw them in a dream or was it on the screen In time, were gathering, I saw everything Time will prove all these things I show to you Come what may, I will not be moved There, in the center of them all, standing tall Pale and faceless, my mind cannot discern You have no choice, I heard them say You have no choice, you will obey We are the law and we are fate Some changes have been made Behold and kneel to our iron will Men of steel have been unsealed The crystal palace awaits Open up the gate They stood within Where they ought not I beheld the rot Silent and still I could not breathe The moment had come Fear had taken me Do not let them take you away Do not allow your mind to break Stay on top of your senses Our vital, most important mission Run away, fast as you can There is no hope for this land This is it, our moment's come We must escape oblivion The crystal palace awaits Open up the gate A game of fate He is the eighth Standing tall in the center of them all Down comes the wall, down fell the wall
13.
Suffer the little children, To come unto me, You will never be forsaken, I see, Man has a short time upon this clay, As they ponder how to serve me, The days are swept away, The fears of the children have watered my land, Now the days are numbered as the sand, I wipe away your sorrow by bringing it all to end, Suffering little children, I am on my way, My way, hold on... The fears of the children have watered my land, Now the days are numbered as the sand, The fears of the children have watered my land, Now the days are numbered as the sand
14.
Do the words confuse you? Mind cannot receive Cards on the table But you don't know what they mean Open wide The eyes must see The fires burn down everything You should know the hour is near Distorted view's unclear I could scream and scream But you could never hear I tried so hard to call out to you Gave this task my all But nothing ever happened Just a silent pall Forsaken, that is your name You ripped out your eyes, And only you're to blame Tell yourself it'll be okay And nothing is wrong But someday you will find out Eternity is long
15.
Wrong (Live) 05:33
Speechless, peaceless walking through sleepless Tired of trying when living feels like dying, Caught between where I've been, where I'll be Tomorrow is a dream I'll sleep away the darkness But peace escapes me What are the words to this song Everytime I try I sing it wrong Pieces won't fit into place I'm can't stand the sight of my own face Pull me through I need you I'm wrong and unglued And I don't know what to do Nothing feels real anymore Feel like I'm acting on a stage With no audience or applause Nothing but the empty spotlight's gaze Where am I Have I lost my mind I try I really try But time slips by Have you forsaken me? I know that cannot be But why can't I see... I don't want to fall anymore My face is nailed to the floor Jesus hear me please I've spent all this time on my knees I call to you through the dark I hope that you've heard my pleas My song I have sang for your honor All that I ask is that you let me see
16.
Once long ago when I was young I felt the warmth of the sun But now all I see left before me Is dark eventuality Cry for the day but it runs away The dawn will never break And the cruel twist of time The light denied Fear plunged into me like a knife Down come the walls And through they crawl Like dogs, like filthy dogs You could fall to your knees And scream and scream But no one will hear or see We wrote this song For string and key A song for you and me Then came the words This twisted verse The part that I must sing Fall on our head, we need it said It's red, it's bloody red I scream out of key Oh sing with me Of dark eventuality
17.
Suffering in my rags Shambling and dressed in black A witness to a crime There's the wink and that smile Everything must go There's nothing that will stay afloat Covered our eyes with smoke Suffering in the mist Sweating, shivering I admit Afraid but I don't show it to you, Never to you Don't be a fool in time Don't dream of peace or pray for rhyme There is nothing left but decline And I call to you I'm telling the truth I call out to you, to you Our sunshine days are through They cast a fog on us, on us A shadow on our house They have done what they should not have Covered our sky with clouds So dark now is our night So dark is our night Filled the air with fright and a lie The innocent blood will spill There is no avoiding it They have made up their mind to kill Do you need me to illustrate illusion for you? In this shadow of our abuse, our happy days are through They will move like vultures, pick apart our bones Do not doubt their cruelty, they have no heart nor soul
18.
Still (Live) 06:21
Built up the hour Flowers lined the hall Bouquets and champagne As the world did fall "The war: a success!" They cried as they drank Three cheers for the hour As they rolled out the tanks The petals fall but the thorn remains Confused temptation for gain Blood soaked the streets as the heads fell at their feet And the world gasped it last breath of reprieve The world stood still on its axis Time forever changed Oh the screaming cries of the masses The world would never be the same One for the bloodshed Two for the woe Three to surrender And four to go Everything in place As they wave the flag Time to move forward There's no turning back The fruit has soured but the rot remains The wine of damnation sorrow and pain (Go to the place if you say you must go) But know that I cannot, cannot follow Break it apart Still my beating heart The time has come to call In the end we all must fall Stand and face the truth Cannot retain our youth The days have slipped us quickly by Our fate hangs under a pale sky
