A pure young soul, thrown into this world
- Left alone out in the cold
A hungry heart burns with the taste for life
But wicked is the flesh and fast the seeds of evil grow
As temptation waits in shadows of the night

We've lit the fuse that slowly burns away our lives
Just like the burning bridges we have left behind
Cold shadows crawling to devour us from within
As the pain eats us slowly from inside

On winds of death we ride

Feed the hunger that never dies -
the flesh needs to be satisfied
Although it kills the purity inside
Innocence long since torn away,
Like beasts we now just seek our prey
Accelerating fast towards the grave

Running through the hourglass of time
Another day passes by
Turning into a sleepless night
Yearning for something I don't know
Tension inside me still grows
Until the new chapter unfolds

Seems no matter how hard you try
The thorn still burns in your side
Throughout this test that we call life
We win and lose everyday
It's like you've heard the Christians say:
"The Lord giveth and taketh away"

Breaking the walls surrounding me
Rising with integrity
Into a new supremacy
Forging dreams into reality
Reaching high into the stars
Beyond what once seemed too far
With the force that lives within
The new chapter shall begin

No scars, no wounds too deep to hide
Yet feeling hollow deep inside
As if something there has died
The restless heart of a child
That keeps visions, dreams alive
Still dwells waiting inside

We come with a calmness
That only years spent out there can give you
We stand out - we wear it with style
From the ranks of the gifted,
A single line of excellence - lifted
It's time purge your ears with flames

Wall of sound - cutting your head -
We trust you've learned your lesson
From the depths - tearing the ground -
The hands that drag you down
One by one - wiping you out -
This siege cannot be broken
Until the end -
This regiment of rumble marches on

Our secret is simple,
We're simply better by far
We stand armed and wait for the sign
The beauty of conquest,
The rush that seems to last a lifetime
It's time purge your ears with flames

"Blessed are those who write their own scriptures,
for they shall be kings of the new world."

Since the dawn of civilization
the so-called men of god
have been lost in their obscurities
their words lead to sorrow
commanding the weak to follow
a desing for tyrants to control and enslave

we subdue not the voices inside us
we only bow down on our prey

fire rains down from the heavens
pouring down on those too weak to learn
on the ruins of the dead religion
standing tall as the enslavin doctrines burn

"Blindly the sheep to their doom,
for their leader came not to bring peace, but a sword."

to lead the flock astray
each cult began their game
they created the face of evil and gave it a name
we take their game and squeeze it
until it brakes in shards
and under the remains the truth will survive

we are the child who questions sincerely
and in our eyes a mirror framed

Somewhere within the darkest moors
between black cliffs like the devil's teeth
a child was born with a warrior's heart
son of the stars, of ice and flame

he marches with pride in his every step
with an iron will and a mind sharp as a demonblade

but darkness builds up in his mind
as a cold breeze moves across the sky
in battle sworn to die
he unsheats the blade with fire in his eyes

warrior soul blazes through the land of frost and snow
his pagan heart and flesh built to endure the cold
warrior soul to the death against all foes he fights
he's born under the northern lights

deep within the shadows of the woods
among the beasts that dwell in the darkness
a child was born -
a daughter of the night and the rising moon
she runs like the wind
and in her heart she carries the secret powers of the elders

but darkness builds up in her mind
as a cold breeze moves across the sky
in battle sworn to die
she unsheats the blade with fire in her eyes

warrior soul blazes through the land of frost and snow
her pagan heart and flesh built to endure the cold
warrior soul to the death against all foes she fights
she's born under the northern lights

solo

in the dark we must find our own way
though we know the winding path leads to the grave
still battles left to fight
we must keep our pride until the end of time

warrior souls blazing through the land of frost and snow
our pagan hearts and flesh built to endure the cold
warrior souls to the death against all foes we fight
we're born under the northern lights

warrior souls blazing through the land of frost and snow
our pagan hearts and flesh built to endure the cold
warrior souls to the death against all foes we fight
we're born under the northern lights
we're born under the northern lights

Here we go
The people show
Victims of tomorrow
The way it goes
It never shows
Emptiness or sorrow
There is nothing left inside
Nothing left to cry for
So I justify my crimes
Things I must die for
So alone
Away it goes
The life that you have wasted
You never know
Where is might go
The sweet success you've tasted
Tasted by a bitter frown
Knowing I must die for
Can't confide, to all the lies
No one to inquire
As I wander, change of seasons
As I realize
That I'll soon be there
I'll let you know
The reapers show
Makes you beg or borrow
He comes to see
The tragedy
His fate he will not follow
Wearing your electric crown
The preacher starts to pray
Shiver as the lights go down
Heed these words I say
As I wander
Change of seasons
I can't ponder
I got my reasons
As I realize
I don't care
All I know is
That I'll soon be there
Now it's gone
The time has come
The people stand in silence
Another dawn
Has come and gone
His fate has been decided
There is no one left inside
A brain without a mind
Traces of a bitter man
Are all you will find
As I wander
Change of seasons
I can't ponder
I got my reasons
As I realize
I don't care
All I know is
That I'll soon be there
That I'll soon be there
That I'll soon be there
That I'll soon be there
