Ghosts Of The Past

Hexed 03:43
Old habits are hard to break, When your tempting the maker. Never give, yet always take. (NO!) Promises don't make things better. I've seen a place with many horrors. The broken land of tomorrow. We're cursed by the way we live. Hexed by our demons, they don't forgive! THEY DON'T FORGIVE! THEY DON'T FORGIVE! Hoping for a painless death, Losing hope with every lasting breath. Change is late now, It's time to meet your fate! We're cursed by the way we've lived. Hexed by our demons, no, they don't forgive! HEX

Underking 03:50
Rise up goblins, (RISE UP) Kin of thee. Walk amongst us, (WALK NOW) Set you free. Spread your power, (SPREAD OUT) Far as can be. Rise above us all for now. (RISE UP) HAIL! HAIL! King of goblins, (THE KING) Son of slaughter. Ruling in the new world order. (RULE NOW) Bring the powers to their knees, Hear the peasants scream as they flee. (THEY SCREAM) The Underking will come and save us, From the beast that dwells within. Eat the flesh, Rise to your feet, Unholy one. Sit yourself upon that throne, (THE THRONE) The one constructed from human bone. (THE BONE) Place that crown upon your head, (THE CROWN) One that fills the crowds with dread. (WITH DREAD) The Underking will come and save us, From the beast that dwells within. Crack the skull, Rise to your feet, Unholy one.

A broken window, A shattered pane The colours fade Slowly from the stain Will I ever feel again? Or will I go on unending? See the path? Stray to wrath? Or carry on pretending?

Black Lungs 04:42
Ever present, I see Everything you are I am all that you fear, All you hold dear The colours fade to black The clouds above you open, Lightning strikes your eyes Now you will learn As you watch the sky burn Fire below, consumes all you know The light above, consumes all you love. When your black lungs fill up with smoke, Suffocating Ever present, He sees Everything you're not I am all you love I'm the evil that you've heard of The colours fade to black The clouds above you open, Lightning strikes your eyes Now you will learn As you watch the sky burn Fire below, consumes all you know The light above, consumes all you love. Watch the sky burn, Thick with black smoke. All hope is lost, Your spirit is broke Watch the sky burn, Thick with black smoke. All hope is lost, Your spirit is broke Fire below, consumes all you know The light above, consumes all you love. When your black lungs fill up with smoke, Suffocating Watch the sky burn, Thick with black smoke. All hope is lost, Your spirit is broke

To My Death 03:54
Carry the weight of the dead on your shoulders, They said to me. Carry them home to the place where the bones are laid to rest Can you feel it? The spirits and the souls. To my death, I'm going. To my death. I'm haunting you. To my death, There is no hope for me, Nothing left. To my death, Open your eyes to see, Nothing left. Ghosts of the past resurrected at last, Feel the darkness compel and expose you. Seek and destroy, hear a voice from the ether. Saving yourself, only cuts that much deeper. But I'll find you. Say your final wishes, 'Cause we're coming for you. I hope that you're ready! Save yourself now.

Witch Hammer 07:05
Here they come bewitched and doomed, Brothers of the blood. Hear their cries of sleepless nights, Souls ripped and torn away. Ripped from the Earth by Godlike hands, Bodies left to decay. Gather the towns and assemble the crowds, Chanting the words of the holy. Leave our lands, Your days are few Speak your truth! Their hammers fall, The witches crawl back from the ashes. They conquer and panic the masses. With fires lit and bottomless pits, Sacrifice the brave. Ropes are ready to, Hang them up! Screams of witchcraft fill the air, The stench of blood is rife. Save yourselves 'O holy ones. For you will die tonight. Many gather, but few survive. Devil's rage inside of them. Bodies will fall like rain from the clouds, Chaos consuming the souls. Chanted the words of the holy. Speak your truth! Their hammers fall, The witches crawl back from the ashes. They conquer and panic the masses. Ropes are ready to, Hang them up! Burn them all! Burn them all! Burn them all! Burn them all!
