Legion Of The Damned - Cult Of The Dead lyrics



Tracks



01. Sermon Of Sacrilege (Intro)

We the damned souls of the cursed legion
Rise to subvert the cult of the dead
The lord of the cross we deny
And for the sins of life we die

We the damned souls of the cursed legion
Rise to blaspheme the cult of the dead
To burn the book if lies
To mock the god who dies

We the damned souls of the cursed legion
Rise to destroy the cult of the dead
To set their temples on fire
To invoke oblivion for the liar

02. Pray And Suffer

Dying priest
In a pool of blood
Dying priest
In the jaws of death

You speak of god
And his son who died
You speak of god
Saviour of mankind
You speak of god
Phantasm built on lies
You speak of god
Who does not rule this world

Suffer in a world of sin
Pray and suffer

You speak of god
And seven deadly sins
You speak of god
Divine punishment
You speak of god
And the holy ghost
You speak of god
Kneeling before the cross

Imperfect and impotent
Jehovah is no redeemer
Cast aside, irrelevant
Jehovah is no redeemer

You speak of god
Whose pale reward you seek
You speak of god
Who celebrates the meek
You speak of god
For whose mercy you plead
You speak of god
Who left his son to bleed

Imperfect and impotent
Jehovah is no redeemer
Cast aside, irrelevant
Jehovah is no redeemer

Suffer in a world of sin
Pray and suffer
Suffer

Oh dying priest now your end is nigh
You live without regrets when you die
Are you so sure about heaven's reward?
When you are left to die as a dog

You speak of god
Whom I cast aside
You speak of god
The architect of lies
You speak of god
His realm oblivious
You speak of god
Archon of suffering

Bleeding priest
In a pool of blood
Bleeding priest
In the jaws of death

Pray and cling to your cross
Pray and cry like a dog
As the blade thrusts through the veils
And you are left to bleed to death

Imperfect and impotent
Jehovah is no redeemer
Cast aside, irrelevant
Jehovah is no redeemer

03. Black Templar

Nocturnal mass, irreverent
Celebrate, rites of hell
Templar court, will condemn
Those shackled to the cross
Lay down in the coffin
Let the lid be closed
Face your fear of death
And go beyond the devil's pass

Black templar, fall from grace
Black templar, kiss of shame
Black templar, sacrilege
Black templar

Burial, stifling air
Succubine, manifests
Temptation, born from hell
Liberating, indulgence
Self denial gone
Death to the great abstinence
Passing the ordeal and drink the wine
Of bitterness

Black templar, fall from grace
Black templar, kiss of shame
Black templar, sacrilege
Black templar

Seven sins, seven deaths
Seven slaves, seven hells
Seven sins, seven deaths
Seven hells and rise again

Nocturnal mass, irreverent
Celebrate, rites of hell
Templar court, will condemn
Those shackled to the cross
Lay down in the coffin
Let the lid be closed
Face your fear of death
And go beyond the devil's pass

Black templar, fall from grace
Black templar, kiss of shame
Black templar, sacrilege
Black templar

Mock the prayers, break the cross
Renounce the lord, and his son
Beyond the pass, Christ undone
Serpent crown, kingdom gone
From levantine prophecies
To heresies from the east
Our priesthood reclaims
The devil's throne

Black templar, fall from grace
Black templar, kiss of shame
Black templar, sacrilege
Black templar

Black templar rising from the cryptic tomb
Black templar rising, Satan's brotherhood

04. House Of Possession

Rugged mountain forests
A cabin lies alone
Unspeakable evil
Channeled from the unknown

Between stones and dying trees
Five come unaware
Pounding wood on wood
Hell's gates were opened here

Not dead they lie but dreaming
Slumber from Sumerian lands
The ancient sleep is broken
Through the book of the dead

Bound in human flesh
All nature be demented
Many died and more will follow
Gate of possession

Caught by the trees alive
She feels the piercing rod
Pain mingles with delight
Another soul lost for god

In eternal possession
They hear the devil's roar
Insane murderous frenzy
Until we have you all

Possessed will be the next
Axed to pieces was her fate
The others soon to follow
Dismember and decapitate

Gauging eyes, gushing blood
Nails mauling bloody limbs
Fear the swallowing jaws
And the dreadful howling winds

Kill her if you can
Trapped in a maze of madness
She suffers in eternal torment
Kill her if you can

Kill her if you can
Trapped in a maze of madness
Possessed by all that is evil
Kill her if you can

Possessed white eyes predict
One by one all will fall
Gnawing flesh, human flesh
Soul swallowed body in thrall

In eternal possession
They hear the devil's roar
Insane murderous frenzy
Until we have you all

Kill her if you can
Trapped in a maze of madness
She suffers in eternal torment
Kill her if you can

Gauging eyes, gushing blood
Nails mauling bloody limbs
Fear the swallowing jaws
And the dreadful howling winds

05. Black Wings Of Yog Sothoth

The presence to be felt
The darkness in the night
The lurker at the threshold
Flashing lightning strike

Incantations chanted
Howling winds soar
Yog-sothoth is evoked
From the forgotten lore

From the depths of chaos
The black winged god appears
Oneiric intrusions
Twisted tongues speak
Three lobed eye burns
An offering to be made
The blessing is bestowed
When we sacrifice the priest
Through the stellar gate
Revelations to be seen
The nameless cult waits aeons
For the outer one to come
The stone temples fall
Under the weight of devastation
All in one, one in all
Cosmic predator from beyond

Turn the crosses down
Turn the crosses down
Turn the crosses down
Turn the crosses down

Turn the crosses down
Altars to be broken
Monotheist gods
Rendered powerless they are
Smash the crucifix
And utter blasphemies
Speak in ancient tongues
Evoke the chaos gods

The cult was ever here
The rites were never gone
The holy scriptures ripped
And the saviour stays unborn
Stellar Darwinism
Existence redefined
This is the new age
Where the Christian god expires

Turn the crosses down
Altars to be broken
Monotheist gods
Rendered powerless they are
Smash the crucifix
And utter blasphemies
Speak in ancient tongues
Evoke the chaos gods

06. Cult Of The Dead

The holy cloth, the foul priest
The holy cross, hands that bleed
Unholy prayer, my sacrilege
A coward's crown, my blasphemy

Cult of the dead
Curse the saviour
Curse him until death
Cult of the dead
Curse the priest
Until his last breath

The shepherd's call, they congregate
The mindless herds, I desecrate
Flesh turned to bread, for us he died
Blood to wine, the sacred lies

Cult of the dead
Curse the saviour
Curse him until death
Cult of the dead
Curse the priest
Until his last breath

Cult of the dead
Curse the saviour
Curse him until death

Torment of the flesh, submission to him
Church of damnation, heaven be denied
Fear of the beast, inevitable doom
Submission to sin
The heretic's soul, in fire consumed

Cult of the dead
Curse the saviour
Curse him until death
Cult of the dead
Curse the priest
Until his last breath

They prey like vultures on the masses
Of the living dead
The foul servants of the Christ
The crucified son
Let him bleed til death
And spit on his rotting corpse
We celebrate the death of god
Pierce the side of Christ again

07. Necrosophic Rapture

Night side perspective
Hidden during the day
When darkness has set in
The time has come to prey

Prowling in the night
Culling is the game
The cards have been dealt
In this lethal game

Eternal cosmic cycle
Of endless death and birth
Neverending stream of corpses
Consumed by this earth

The wheel of time turns
Existence does not matter
Only death can show
Necrosophic rapture

Equal in death
Culling is the game

Death is just transition
Submit to your fate

Covered in the ashes
Of the cremated dead
Drinking from the skull
Collected from the grave

Meditate upon
The act of violent death
My nocturnal calling
Is the sadean lust for life

Beggar or prince
Kill without distinction
Murder sanctified
Deadly absolution

Do not pledge for mercy
Your cries are in vain
Senseless life ends
Deliverance from pain

Nightside perspective
Hidden during the day
When darkness has set in
The time has come to prey

Prowling in the night
Culling is the game
The cards have been dealt
In this lethal game

Covered in the ashes
Of the cremated dead
Drinking from the skull
Collected from the grave

Meditate upon
The act of violent death
My nocturnal calling
Is the sadean lust for life

Beggar or prince
Kill without distinction
Murder sanctified
Deadly absolution

Do not pledge for mercy
Your cries are in vain
Senseless life ends
Deliverance from pain

08. Enslaver Of Souls

Sorcery out of slavery reborn
Memories revived on distant shores
Invocation of the necromantic lord
Calling for a blessing
From the realm of the dead
Voodoo drums beat
And chanting in the night
The body starts to twist
As the loa comes inside
Ritual dislocation of the human mind
Living vessel for the gods to ride

Divine possession
Body in trance
The death's lord blessing
Reaper's dance

Baron Samedi
Guardian of the graves
Lord of the cross roads
Grant me a soul to take

The Bokor conjuring
In a graveyard rite
The loa of the dead
The baron's skull smiles

Divine possession
Body in trance
The death's lord blessing
Reaper's dance

Baron Samedi
Guardian of the graves
Lord of the cross roads
Grant me a soul to take

Phallic and disruptive
Tobacco and rum
The lord of resurrection
Maletic poison curse

The death spirit
Ti bon ange
Astral zombie

Sorcery out of slavery reborn
Memories revived on distant shores
Invocation of the necromantic lord
Calling for a blessing
From the realm of the dead
Voodoo drums beat
And chanting in the night
The body starts to twist
As the loa comes inside
Baron cemetery nods
And your soul I will take
The astral zombie curse
Stuck in a living grave

09. Solar Overlord

Solar overlord
Warrior priest of the sun
Pillar of the ancient order
God and beast as one

Solar overlord
Spawn of the invincible sun
Spartan discipline
Imposed on the militant monks

Solar overlord
Warrior priest of the sun
We are the sons of death
Calm in the storm

Solar overlord
Spawn of the invincible sun
Kali yuga reigns
This cycle of regression

Overman, titan height
Promethean thrust
Radiant anger, bursting hatred
Burning lust
Overlord, shade of Hades
Bringer of death

Bow down for the solar overlord

Kneel down for the solar overlord

A million sun storms in my mind
Transcending mundane madness
Ascending to heights unknown
I will unleash the thunderbolts

We are the thrusting horns
The order of the bull
The blood will be spilled
To celebrate the black sun
Raven of dispersion
Brought to the streets
Explosive charges and debris
Chaos to be unleashed

Overman, titan height
Promethean thrust
Radiant anger, bursting hatred
Burning lust

Solar overlord
Warrior priest of the sun
Pillar of the ancient order
God and beast as one
Raven of dispersion
Brought to the streets
Explosive charges and debris
Chaos to be unleashed

10. Lucifer Saviour

Fallen angel
Cast down in the abyss
Heaven's throne
By the father denied
Defiant, rebellious
No submission to him
Lucifer, saviour
May I forever be thine

Fire angel
Lucifer saviour
Godless angel
Fallen one

Serpent slithering
Inside the depths of my soul
Vice eternal
To Belial I am sworn
Carnal desires
Formenting the lust for sin
Son of darkness
Has come to settle the scores

Fire angel
Lucifer saviour
Godless angel
Fallen one

Sodom sighs
Under temptation's spell
Seductive pleasures
In Lilith's dominion I dwell
We are seeking
The endless fires of sin
We'll burn, burn
Forever burning in hell

Southern storms
Raging within my mind
Restless vigour
Determined to make the world mine
Lordship infernal
Raping the holy ghost
We will, we will
We will take on the throne

See the world burn

From the fire of endless damnation
We come to avenge the dead
Merciless blows to the tyrant above
Are dealt by the savage left hand
Lucifer's blessing bestowing the power
To follow the master's path
Heavenly palace is set on flames
As I treat on your god left dead

Fallen angel
Cast down in the abyss
Heaven's throne
By the father denied
Defiant, rebellious
No submission to him
Lucifer, saviour
May I forever be thine

Southern storms
Raging within my mind
Restless vigour
Determined to make the world mine
Lordship infernal
Raping the holy ghost
We will, we will
We will take on the throne

See the world burn

Lucifer's blessing bestowing the power
To follow the master's path
Merciless blows to the tyrant above
Are dealt by the savage left hand

11. Final Godsend

This is the end
This is the end
This is the end
This is the end

The final godsend

Behold the promise of eternal bliss
At the feet of the prince of peace
After the angels of extermination
Their songs of Armageddon sing

The final abomination
Subterranean apparition
The ancient dragon rising
Ten horned tribulation

Seven seals are opened
And seven trumpets call
Thunder roars, lightning strikes
And seas are red with blood

Seven mouths spew blasphemies
Seven heads tear angels flesh
The saviour will not come
And the only truth is death

Apocalyptic revelation
Prediction of the end
Expiring existence
The final godsend

Soaked in the blood of the lamb
Inhale the stench of his blood
The old serpent is raging
The devil storms the gates of heaven

Those who shall seek death
Shall find nothing but torment
Dominus exterminator
Mass murderer divine

Seven seals are opened
And seven trumpets call
Thunder roars, lightning strikes
And seas are red with blood

Apollyon commands
Legions from the bottomless pit
At war with a merciless god
And the holy truth is death

Apocalyptic revelation
Prediction of the end
Expiring existence
The final godsend

This is the end
The final godsend
