Sea of Rage 04:02
Wind within its nose Steam rose up from the heat Caused the deep to boil The raging of the sea Dragon in the sea Speak soft words unto thee Lie trick and deceive But you don't deceive me... Power of the waves The sea it raged until the dawn The ships within were gone Cursed red moon shined As it hung overhead The water ran red With the blood of the dead The hour is near Don't give into fear Be strong and be aware And always be prepared
2.
Catastrophe 03:52
As black fills the sky Whirling of wings The sound is unbearable As gas fills my eyes I cannot see Where did this come from? Run and run my feet ache I cannot see the way I run I run as I scream Why did this happen to me Out in the dark Alone on my own I cannot see the sun I twist through the trees Recoil as I bleed Take a moment to sit and breathe Climb to the top of the mountain Set ablaze the trees Fly the wind in the desert This cannot stop me As the string was cut from the doll Puppets dance and sing Twisted trance one mind as they gather To bring an end to everything
3.
The road ahead is dark Been said a thousand times before Sunset left these streets empty People went to their homes But I have to go down the road To get home I have somewhere I need to be I must down the road and it's dark I will not give in to fear or sleep I have my map Compass too I know which way to go But will I make it through Travelling down the road To get home Through the valley of death The shadows linger as I pass Through the trees I hold my breath I'm on my way I'm on my way I'm on my way I'm on my way I'm on my way I'm on my way I'm on my way
4.
Why 04:07
How many things will be taken from me? Am I asleep and is this all a bad dream? I can feel the river pouring out of me A sorrowing stream, it takes everything not to scream And I mean How much more can I take Before this levee breaks How long must I wait I fear it will never come Heart broken I hesitate My spinning head it aches What did I do to deserve this fate I really don't know I cannot discern it here How much more can I take Before the levee breaks How long must I wait I fear it will never come And why does it always rain on me? Every time I try to survive the waters wash me away And why does it always rain on me? Every time I try to survive the waters wash me away
5.
Gathered in the midst of them Tall in winter's dark Black coats in the snowy mist The ashes cast a fog Smoke goes higher The fire lights the sky A strong desire For the blood of sacrifice Paint the town red Paint the streets with the rolling heads Black hearts shining The black star is blinding In the absence of their eyes The silent staring death Blinding heartbreak up the mind There is nothing left When the bell tolls The dogs of war will cry and moan Rip the flesh off Tear it straight from the bone One, two, three, four, Who's that wolf knocking at your door? Five, six, seven, eight, What is on your plate? When the sky falls World will turn upside down When the bell tolls They'll spill our blood until they drown
6.
The Number 03:13
Here comes the hurricane Here comes the pouring rain Nobody Nobody Nobody knew Here comes the thunderbird A voice as yet unheard Why can't we Why can't we Why can't we leave? Tangled down in the stars above For their hate they had all love Absence of the unique mind Lord destruction: love unkind Shift its countenance From the between the balances Count the hour, now count the cost The number of a man, the sign of the cross Upside down hanging in the sky The hour of death draws nigh tick, tick, tick Six, six, six The number of a man Listen close to the frequency Try to understand
7.
Hanging 04:38
As the sun does set I sigh a heavy breath The tree has me Hanging with the leaves Hours go by, sun is in my eyes Will I ever see Don't leave me be Blood it fills my head Don't leave me hanging When will I leave? Cut me from this tree Hours go by Tears I cry Fill the ground But nothing changes... Changes... Changes... Waiting with the leaves They start to fall but I keep on Holding on As the end draws near I'm filled with fear So much fear Hours go by Tears I cry Fill the ground But nothing changes... Changes... Changes... Blood it fills my head Don't leave me hanging I cannot bear it Anymore...
8.
Eighty Eight 05:44
What will I see standing there before me? What will I see on that day? Choices laid at my feet but I do not know the way I looked up above so I would know A comet fell from the sky From four directions they gathered there They knew it was the time Caught in a trap It's an eighty-eight Destruction on both sides Why can't I see What'd you do to me? The thunder tears through the sky 1, 2, 3, I can't see. I can't see I need, I need to be free 1, 2, 3, I can't be, they won't let me be, And nothing in this world brings relief Nothing makes sense Everything's wrong The sour notes are stuck in my song I cry all these tears but the stain still remains I need to be free of this pain... The wheel it spins but when will it end Eights in it's eyes were twice destruction Eighty-eight, eighty-eight When that hour comes do not hesitate Eighty-eight, eighty-eight A smile so vile it would desacrate Eighty-eight, eighty-eight The empty space where the heart's been erased Eighty-eight, eighty-eight Who's that standing in your place?
9.
Pale Horse 03:56
One two three four I beheld a pale horse Fire hand the leader of the band The world within its hand A process made to end the world Danse macabre idealized Burned out stars in its eyes Crisscross the six was nine Circling the skull Swallowing the cosmos Consuming everything Can you hear the voices in your head Weeds shift through the garden Peace and love revenged with blood Oh no what have you become? As the sky turned black Swarm rose to attack There's no turning back This is the end Beat the sound of drums The fires in the slums This cannot be undone The pale horse descends Standing tall within the fog Wearing a woman's face I try but I cannot perceive what this is Are those hearts within its eyes Or are those only holes I see it rising up out from the pit
10.
Too Late 04:38
The wax has melted to the floor Lock the windows and the door I don't know why I am suprised I knew where this would go And as the shadows linger on I know It is too late This world is already gone As it is above, so it is below Nothing left here but shadow Tempered vexing of the state Cowards hide behind their plate Coming round, full-circled rule Transgressors came to full Don't you hear or understand Are you deaf or are you dead? Or is everything static In your head I don't want to fall And I don't want to fail And I don't want to wither away I want to be strong And I'm going to win And I'm tired of being afraid The end of time suits our kind well We are ready for the black iron bell
11.
What are you doing here Waters run red with fear Look in the sky But you don't know the reason why The sleep is disturbed Mind unnerved Cannot perceive the end of things In the end it all falls away Every single moment of every wasted day Running fast into bleeding pain Seeking death but there is no escape You'll fall down to your knees Beg and plead and plead On deaf ears fall your screams The time has passed for forgiveness Head full of dreams and sickly sleep In darkened mirrors patterns repeat Over and over beat by beat Nothing ever changes in this world
12.
To all those that hear this song The hour will not be long Make peace with your life Cause this is the end of the line Trouble on the rise The storm in the sky, eye opened wide Hurricane and tide Who will survive this violent time The hour is right there Clouds of despair, but who would dare? Line in the sand So who could stand? Oh who would stand? The time has come For all our fears to become Reality Can it really be? So I sing along Sorrowful is my song There's nothing to be done Let the disaster come Do not be afraid Those that know will be saved Keep your Savior close He is our only hope Stars in the sky Stamped out the light, eternal night Busted head Gushed and bled, the garden fed Gnawing for more Rats at the door, they smell the gore Swing from the trees The gathering the fallen leaves The time has come For all our fears to become Reality Can it this really be? So I sing along Sorrowful is my song There's nothing to be done Let the disaster come
13.
Water withheld above its head To seperate the above and below Cascaded down to drown the land The waters then overflowed Out of the sky Down from the sky Outta the sky the water fell Tumbling down Opened its mouth Drowning the earth, it filled the well Storm of the day Grizzled and bay Flooding the plains as a fountain The valley, the dead Bloodstained and red Run for the top of the mountains Down into hell it buried its head To instigate the above and below Rising up from the dead The blood then overflowed Up from the ground Up from the ground Up from the flowers grew Up from the ground A chariot's sound Up from the ground with wings they flew Hell broke loose They put our head in a noose They lit the fuse and burned it down Up from our graves The time has come to pay For everything that they took away Run run run the sky's falling down down down Falling down to the ground Run run run but you can't run away From the sound, the sound Time and time and strife Do you know what it's for? Did you spend your life seeking death's door?
14.
Forsaken 04:50
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.
Time will tell on you Thought you could outrun the truth? Out from the mouth It comes Reveal us revelation Let us see the abomination Horror beyond reason Temporary season Build it up, bellies filled Bloody bloody hands What have you done to the children? What've you brought upon this land? The time has come, you must face the truth The price you must pay is on your head Build your altars, build them all The sacrificial law But who will answer your twisted prayers When Jesus comes to call? Down the road to oblivion You desicrate your souls Tore down everything sacred Nothing left but the hole Dig down to your grave Your life's mistake You better run Here he comes
16.
Open heart Falling apart Pumping blood into the veins Dancing in the rain Waiting for the sky to fall Waiting for the end of it all Come forth Soon the hour Closer now I feel the power Jagged pieces fall into place Shattered glass turns earth to waste My heart inside burns and throbs I call you forth My God Come forth How soon the hour O Jesus come I feel your power Bleeding heart In the dark The hour's hand Forsaken land I call you down I call you down I call you down I call you down
17.
As the pictures moved and danced The people knelt down entranced Feeble minds could not contain The endless pain On that day, they fell away Fell away As they stared up at their star They wandered who they are A master to lead The voice of the screen: It says, "I am he, and you are too You are me and I am you" "Come together, come together The nations of the world surrender Come together, come together Let's remove these walls" As the sky opened wide The eyes were blinded by the sign On that day, they fell away Fell away
18.
As the shadow of your grave Falls on your face, the fear and disgrace The blood of the innocent you betrayed The world will know your shame Tick tock as the hands on the clock Start to rattle and move Faster faster faster they spin As they forget the tune Here it comes Upside down Here it comes There's no way out The sun's been eclipsed by the moon The lunatics cry out of tune The eyes have it, but what's in their view? I think we're through... Ruiners One and all Broke the rules And now you'll fall Build your kingdoms quickly now Brick by brick by brick Ashes to ashes they all fall down Sickly sickly sick Don't you know you can't run from the light Paint the blue sky black The pinholes piercing through your eyes Never coming back
19.
Phrases I carry burden is heavy Blood bound to my task I am standing at the gate How long must I wait From my mouth the words pour out Let me then speak them all I am prepared to die Anything for my song Open the gate The palace awaits Their teeth are a gnashing sound Rain wash away The time that it takes Seep into the ground Time come today I call your name Jesus come down I call the storm Power of the Lord Armageddon bound Broken hearts hypnotise With beautiful words and sweetest lies Worshiping their ruined souls Digging deep in the hole Look up unto it, can you see through it The sky is painted red The blood on the battlefield The streets are flower beds Open the gate The palace awaits Their claws make a scratching sound Wash it away Wash it away Let the rain come down Time come today I can barely wait Feet firm on the ground Smell of a storm Ready to be born We're armageddon bound Let them rise up then The time must come I see them marching Toward the sun With their torches They set ablaze With gasoline they scream "Open the gate"
20.
Show You 04:04
Curtain call the time of the stage is upon us We have an audience Let the roses fly at our feet Cheers and applause we will meet The time is near the stage is set The audience is waiting We will perform our acts on cue Let the show go on I say I'm through with all the waiting The time has come to show you Open your eyes Look and see What is that Approaching? Trembling they cry out with anticipation "What will the curtain reveal?" Oh how they do not know What horror is about to appear The time is near the stage is set The audience is shaking To them it seems out of the blue Let the show go on I say I'm done with all this waiting The time has come to show you Open your eyes look and see Something is approaching Curtain drawn why can't you see It's the end of everything!?
21.
Back Away 04:21
At last I see past the fog In the distance In the distance At last I can breathe I can see Run for the darkness To the valley of Gehenna Into the earth You must stay Back away Back away Back away Back away I've been down I've been down on the ground In the terror and the rain Was cast down I suffered so much pain As I rise Ascend into the sky I'm determined burning bright Power in my wings as I fly I was tired of fighting So long I tried to achieve But now I've found the power Now I say... Back away Back away Back away Back away Back away Back away Back away You have no power here I fill your bones with fear Run to and fro To the dust you will go
22.
Ashes fall upon ground Burning city's coming down As the sky's polluted black There is no turning back As above, so below Feel the wind, feel it blow I can feel it now, can't turn around The ashes fall upon the ground Fall down fall down Who'll be there to save you when you Fall down fall down Lost and never found I have direction in my parts Clear understanding in the dark As above, so below The sky is full of shadows Secret out into the dark Like thieves we will depart Let the blood flood the streets Let them scream their scream Not allowed to live my life Stolen in the night As the sky above cries Trees below twist with fright I know which way to go As above so below I know which way to go As above so below
23.
Full Circle 03:31
Guide me to where I need to be Let the words come to me My time is not yet I've made up my bed Washed my hands Cleared my eyes Looked up to the skies The time is come Hear me now Prepare to leave your house Train your mind to withstand The strain and the pain A choice will be presented But there will be no choice at all Fashion of fear drama of tears Masquerade of mirrors and strings You must do your part or you'll die on your knees Radical revolution Change the sky to dark Fallen from the sea To the air From the clouds There's the crown The scar and the seam And the star Oh come down then Tear down the wall I am ready to die Let the axe fall
24.
Enter the stage The final act has begun Enter the age It is almost done Look in the mirror what did you see Who was it looking back at thee? Through the glass I could see Something shown to me Was it an image of what I could be A vision my eyes could see Look up above what did you see? The god of the people was TV Patterns of people fill out the stage Same thoughts they think; They walk the same way Every one saying, "I am unique," But inside you are all the same We are through the looking glass We are on the other side We have become what we have seen Transformed by color and light Oh is this the end? Opened up the lens The light shone past Through the looking glass
