Tracks



01. Coming Of The Storm

Roar of thunder
Shatters the dawn
Eyes of the world
Awaken as one
Deviant power
Starting to form
Witness the fury
The coming of the storm

Hail the new order
The kingdom to come
Means to an end
That's already begun
Balance of power
Force the hand of time
A final solution
Too late for mankind

Coming - speaking words of war
Coming - rising nevermore
Coming - No one can answer why
Victims of fate left to die

All that you fear
Happens today
Powers of doom
Turning life to decay
Armies in chaos
Nowhere to retreat
Deathg from above
The gods of war meet

Souls fill the sky
Seeking salvation
Carried aloft
By god's invitation
Unholy procession
Eager to rule
Hail the new order
The legion of fools

Coming - speaking words of war
Coming - rising nevermore
Coming - No one can answer why
Victims of fate left to die

Coming - speaking words of war
Coming - rising nevermore
Coming - No one can answer why
Victims of fate left to die

Victims of fate left to die

02. The Inner Circle

To the voices of reason
Resistance decays
Progression of society is the aim
Poisoned by power
Losing the game
A slave to the I sought to gain

All our lives so many years
Fighting back so many tears
Tearing my heart out inside
Knowing what I want to be
Shackled by reality
Faith in my belief will light the way

Time will tell what will become
Tomorrow only knows
The promise has lang been fulfilled
The inner circle grows

Time will tell what will become
Tomorrow only knows
The promise has long been fulfilled
The inner circle grows
The road to destiny is clear
Oblivious to their lies
The inner circle never breaks
The inner circle never dies

It never dies

03. Stranger Than Fiction

Forever I have wanted
A hunger obsessed by your form
You will never know me
I want you just the same
The dragons eyes reveal
The purpose of your pain

My audience now certainly captive
The candle brings life to their eyes
From its pale light
Comes the greatest truth of all
Your mirrored eyes reflect
The imagine of my soul

My life is contradiction
Truth is stranger than fiction

Mercy - The human heart
Pity - The human face
Love - The human form divine
Cruelty - The human heart
Secrecy - The human dress
Terror - The human form divine
My life is contradiction
Fate can be stranger than fiction

04. G-13 (Devoid Of Thought)

[Instrumental]

05. Mein Madness

A master tactician
The leader of the Reich
I slay the inferior
And all of their like

My nation deceived
To believe I am right
Forging the youth
To go forth and fight

The cost of my dream
Demands a great price
Summon your pride
Give me your life

My people are wretched
Cities aflame
Seeds of destruction
Born in my name

My legions will crawl
To the edge of the earth
Nations will crumble in pain

Living in a bunker
Beneath the slums
I'll not wait for victory
It never comes

Death is my will
Such was my plan
The work of the devil
Not only a man

Millions killed
Global war
Power is nothing
To die for

Men of peace
Free at last
Look to the future
And learn from the past

06. Time And Time Again

Appealing to my past lives
My conscience never hears
Recurring metamorphosis
Mutation now appears

My soul's never sleeping
I've lived a thousand lives
A witness to man's treachery
Through a thousand different eyes

Violent death comes ripping
Throughout this shattered frame
Regenesis beginning
Another life of pain

My soul's never sleeping
I've lived a thousand lives
A witness to your misery
Through a thousand different eyes

Time has taken its toll
Keeper of my shattered soul
Transformation taking form
Immortal I am reborn

Centuries are lost in solitude
Screaming to the sky
My fate is cold and certain
Trapped within the jaws of time

Time has taken its toll
Left behind my shattered soul
For me there is no end
Dying time and time again

07. Digitator

Masters become inferior
Their slaves rise superior
No one knew who would ever tell
Man's creation became his hell

Far too blind to see
Enslaved by technology
Mankind will fall to me
To reign for all eternity

Dictator- Your anodized son
What have I become
Dictator-
My metal heart knows no mercy

No one can say who's to blame
No man can count the cost of your pain
Your miserable lives will go on
A product of science gone wrong

Dictator- Your anodized son
What have I become
Dictator-
My metal heart knows no mercy

08. Between The Lies

Looking in your eyes
Hearing you speak
Nothing more than lies

Can I believe
A word that you say ?
Should I care anyway ?

Something - behind your eyes
Some truth - between the lies

Heir to a world
Of fear and mistrust
A hell that you never asked for
All that you love
Turns to dust
All that you do leads to madness

Something - behind your eyes
Some truth - between the lies

Time will tell - right or wrong
I can show you - to be strong
The only way - is through me
A process of insanity

Walking through life
With your eyes closed
Never wanting to see
The part you play
Is not reality

Something - behind your eyes
Some truth - between the lies

09. The Last Word

Awakening in horror
The silence haunts my dreams
My eyes blinded by the sun
Thoughts of never
Return to me
Cannot escape reality

Symphony of sadness
Beckons eternity
Nothing to pretend
Fearing the future
Knowing the past
Has brought about the end

Longing for tomorrow
For what can never be
Can't escape reality

Look into my eyes
Fear the face you see
Listen and remember
What has become of me

Cold steel
To silence the fear
Something to end the pain
Some are born into misery
Others will kill to attain

Time flies, dying young
Destiny won't wait
I never learned to live
And now it's much too late

Face the face of fear
What has become of me

10. The Promise

Silent one my only son
So cold and pale
How can I stop the pain you bear

All the things I feel inside
Are spoken in vain
Though words mean nothing

I stand in silence
Your soul it speaks to me

Cannot stand to see your pain
As the days turn to years
The heavens weep for thee

I stand in silence
Your soul it screams to me

Close your eyes now forever
What will be will be
All time has frozen
From life I set you free

Close your eyes now forever
What will be will be
All time has frozen
In death I set you free

And forever you are free
