Square Hammer |
[Verse 1]
Living in the night
'Neath devils torn asunder
You call on me to solve a crooked rhyme
As I'm closing in
Imposing on your slumber
You call on me as bells begin to chime
[Chorus]
Are you on the square?
Are you on the level?
Are you ready to swear right here, right now
Before the devil
That you're on the square
That you're on the level
That you're ready to stand right here, right now
Right here, right now
[Verse 2]
Hiding from the light
Sacrificing nothing
Still you call on me for entrance to the shrine
Hammering the nails
Into a sacred coffin
You call on me for powers clandestine
[Chorus]
Are you on the square?
Are you on the level?
Are you ready to swear right here, right now
Before the devil
That you're on the square
That you're on the level
That you're ready to stand right here, right now
Right here, right now
[Chorus]
Are you on the square?
Are you on the level?
Are you ready to swear right here, right now
Before the devil
That you're on the square
That you're on the level
That you're ready to stand right here, right now
Right here, right now
Right here, right now
Right here, right now
Right here, right now
Right here, right now

From The Pinnacle To The Pit |
You have the power
You wear the crown
From the pinnacle
To the pit
It is a long way down
You wield the scepter
You wear the gown
From the pinnacle
To the pit
It is a long way down
In your empire
They stare and frown
From the pinnacle to the pit
It is a long way down
You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You will wear your independence like a crown
Cruciger globus
You stand your ground
The orbus figure
Whatâs flat looks round
From the pinnacle to the pit
It is along way down
You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You will wear your independence like a crown

Is the lust in your eyes
"Blasphemous"
Would not suffice
Perverted

Elizabeth |
Underneath the monlight of old hungerian skies
buried in the blood-drenched earth
These barren lands of ice
She was an evil woman with an evil old soul
Piercing eyes emotionless
a heart so black and cold
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
Her pact with Satan
Her dispisal of mankind
Her acts of cruelty and her lust for blood
Makes her one of us
Our ancient countess was refused her desires will
To bathe in pure fresh blood
She'd peasant virgins killed
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth
Elizabeth, in the chasm where was my soul
Forever young, Elizabeth Bathorii in the castle of your death
You're still alive, Elizabeth

Body And Blood |
This grave hill stinks of death
A reek from the ground
Catches whiff of the hound
A dead ones breath
The casket lid is cold
Waiting inside
Is someone petrified
That odors old
His body and blood
Sharing in common
His body and blood
His body and blood
Serving Messiah
Son of God
The bitter taste is sweet
So eat Nazarene
And you kiss the obscene
Anointed feet
His body and blood
Sharing in common
His body and blood
His body and blood
Serving Messiah
His body and blood
Sharing in common
His body and blood
His body and blood
Serving Messiah
Son of God
Receive, consume
Receive, consume
Digest
Defecate
His body and blood
Sharing in common
His body and blood
His body and blood
Serving Messiah
Son of God

Cirice |
I feel your presence amongst us
You cannot hide in the darkness
Can you hear the rumble?
Can you hear the rumble that's calling?
I know your soul is not tainted
Even though you've been told so
Can you hear the rumble?
Can you hear the rumble that's calling?
I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you
(2x)
A candle casting a faith to whom
You and I see eye to eye
Can you hear the thunder?
How can you hear the thunder that's breaking?
Now there is nothing between us
From now our merge is eternal
Can't you see that you're lost?
Can't you see that you're lost without me?
I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you
(2x)
(Solo)
Can't you see that you're lost without me?
I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you
(4x)

Ghuleh / Zombie Queen |
Ghuleh
Ghuleh
Ghuleh
Ghuleh
Putrefaction
A scent that cursed be, under cold dark dust
From the darkness
Rise a succubus
From the earthen rust
Hyiistea, once a majesty
Now exposing bone
From the darkness
Rise a succubus
And usurps the throne
The moon is full, and shines an evil blinding light
Under a monolithic likeness, marble white
Zombie Queen
Zombie Queen
Black light guides you!
Ghuleh
Ghuleh
And from the stinking pit she rises, ghastly pale
She is shifting soon... but now she's rigid, stiff and pale

Year Zero |
Belial, Behemoth, Beelzebub, Asmodeus, Satanas, Lucifer
Belial, Behemoth, Beelzebub, Asmodeus, Satanas, Lucifer
Since dawn of time the fate of man is that of lice
Equal as parasites and moving without eyes
A day of reckoning when Venice is to burn
Countdown together now and say the words that you heard.
Hail Satan, Archangelo
Hail Satan, Welcome year zero
Hail Satan, Archangelo
Hail Satan, Welcome year zero
Belial, Behemoth, Beelzebub, Asmodeus, Satanas, Lucifer
Crestfallen kings and queens cavorting iller faith
Unbeknownst to them is the presence of the wraith
Since fate of man is equal to the fate of lice
As new dawn rises you shalt recognize now behold the Lord Of Flies
Hail Satan, Archangelo
Hail Satan, Welcome year zero
Hail Satan, Archangelo
Hail Satan, Welcome year zero
Hail Satan
[Guitar solo]
He will tremble the nations.
Kingdoms to fall one by one
Victim to fall for temptations
A daughter to fall for a son
The ancient serpent deceiver
The masses standing in awe
He will ascend to the heavens
Above the stars of god.
Hail Satan, Archangelo
Hail Satan, Welcome year zero
Hail Satan, Archangelo
Hail Satan, Welcome year zero.

He Is |
We're standing here by the abyss
And the world is in flames
Two star crossed lovers reaching out
To the beast with many names
He is
He's the shining in the night without whom I cannot see
And he is
Insurrection, he is spite, he's the force that made me be
He is
Nostra vos pater, nostrama mater
He is
We're hiding here inside of thee
and all our doubts are now destroyed
The guidance of the morning star
will lead the way into the void
He is
He's the shining in the night without whom I cannot see
And he is
Insurrection, he is spite, he's the force that made me be
He is
Nostra vos pater, nostrama mater
He is
He is
He is
He's the shining in the night without whom I cannot see
And he is
Insurrection, he is spite, he's the force that made me be
He is
He's the shining in the night without whom I cannot see
And he is
The disobedience that holds us together
He is
Nostra vos pater, nostrama mater
And we are falling
Over the precipice

Mummy Dust |
I was carried on a wolf's back
Here to corrupt humanity
I will pommel it with opulence
With corpulence and greed
In god you trust
My mummy dust
My mummy dust
Your cavalier of crapulence
To this feast of rapacity
I will bury you in treasures
Just to feed your incapacity
In god you trust
My mummy dust
My mummy dust
You are the possessée of avarice
I am the ruler of the earth
I will smother you in riches
Until you choke in sordid mirth
You are summoned in cupidity
Purulence and lust
I am the magnet for stupidity
Divine you feel my thrust
In god you trust
My mummy dust
My mummy dust
[The Collective sings]
In god you trust

Secular Haze |
You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the diseaser sees no cure
You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the intents remain obscure
Forevermore
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable wall-less maze
A secular haze
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When she sees eye to eye with spears
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When youth and innocence disappear
Forever lost
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable, wall-less maze
A secular haze
He is divinity omniscient
Seeing the world revolve with spite
The surge of humanity oblivious
To the divine bringingeth light
Let there be night
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Fog weaver
Come mist eternal
Come mist eternal
Come secular haze.

Absolution |
Ever since you were born you've been dying
Every day a little more you've been dying
Dying to reach the setting sun
As a child, with your mind on the horizon
All the vultures, even prizes you keep your eyes on
Trying to be the chosen one
All those things that you desire
You will find there in the fire
Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution
Even now when you're here you are moving
Hysterically seeking out what needs improving
And you're still asking for the sun
All those things that you desire
You will find there in the fire
Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution
You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry
Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution
Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution

Ritual |
Tonight we're summoned for a divine cause
Remembrance - No
But for their future loss
This chapel of ritual
Smells of dead human sacrifices
From the altar...
Beduins and nomads
Carried through the times
Through pestilences and famines
These ancient scrolls of rhymes
"Our fallen angel vexed
Was banished from the sky
Recite now from the text
Pray for ALL to die"
This chapel of ritual
Smells of dead human sacrifices
From the altar bed
On this night of ritual
Invocing our master
To procreate the unholy bastard
"Our father
Who art in hell
Unhallowed be thy name
Cursed be the sons and daughters
Of thine Nemesis
Whom are to blame
Thy kingdom come
nemA"
Tonight we summoned for His unholy fiend
Now celebrate
The End
This chapel of ritual
Smells of dead human sacrifices
From the altar bed
On this night of ritual
Invocing our master
To procreate the unholy bastard

Monstrance Clock |
To the sound of the monstrance clock
Air is cleansed, assembled flock
Black candles burn, all minds aligned
To the sound of the monstrance clock
Air is cleansed, assembled flock
Black candles burn, all minds aligned
As the parish sighs in smoke
Enters lady revealed of cloak
To the haunting sound of the monstrance clock
Singing:
[Chorus:]
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
To the sound of the end of day
Mesmerized, the assembled sway
Black candles burn, all minds aligned
Hypnotizing horns of ram
Paralyzing pentagram
And the eerie sound of the monstrance clock
Singing
[Chorus:]
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son

Ashes |
Ring a ring of roses
A pocket full of posies
Atishoo, atishoo
We all fall down
Ashes on the water
Ashes in the sea
Ashes on the riverside
One, two, three

Rats |
[Verse 1: Cardinal Copia]
In times of turmoil
In times like these
Beliefs contagious
Spreading disease
This wretched mischief is now coursing through your souls
Never to let go
Never to let go
[Refrain: Cardinal Copia]
Them rats! (rats-rats-rats-)
[Verse 2: Cardinal Copia]
Into your sanctum
You let them in
Now all your loved ones
And all your kin
Will suffer punishments beneath the wrath of God
Never to forgive
Never to forgive
[Refrain: Cardinal Copia]
Them rats! (rats-rats-rats-)
(Aaah whoah)
Rats! (rats-rats-rats-)
(Aaah whoah)
Rats! (rats-rats-rats-)
(Aaah whoah)
Rats! (rats-rats-rats-)
(Aaah whoah)

Faith |
[Verse 1: Cardinal Copia]
There is a scourge in the guise of sanctity
A perpetrator with a quill
Although it's...
Not perceived and although it's not mystery
The accuser sends the bill
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall
[Post-Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Because faith is mine!
[Verse 2: Cardinal Copia]
The Luddites shun the diabolical
A fecal trail across the land
Although it...
Stinks, feels and looks identical
And a pack of fools can take the stand
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall
[Post-Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Because faith is mine!
[Solo: Nameless Ghouls (Fire & Aether)]
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall
I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall
I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall
[Post-Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Because faith is mine!

See the Light |
[Verse 1]
Many a sin I have witnessed and in many indeed I have been
Many a rat I have befriended and so many a thorn stood between
But of all the demons I have known
None could compare to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Every day that you feed me with hate I grow stronger
Every day that you feed me with hate I grow stronger
[Chorus]
Drink me, eat me
Then you'll see the light
[Verse 2]
Many a mind I have haunted and in many a way I have been
Often the one to have flaunted an image grotesque and obscene
But of all the dark roads that I roam
None could compare to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Every day that you feed me with hate I grow stronger
Every day that you feed me with hate I grow stronger
[Chorus]
Drink me, eat me
Then you'll see the light

Dance Macabre |
[Verse 1: Cardinal Copia]
You'll soon be hearing the chime
Close to midnight
If I could turn back the time
I'd make all right
[Pre-Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
How could it end like this?
There's a sting in the way you kiss me
Something within your eyes
Said it could be the last time
'Fore it's over!
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Just wanna be
Wanna bewitch you in the moonlight
Just wanna be
I wanna bewitch you all night
[Verse 2: Cardinal Copia]
It keeps on giving me chills
But I know now
I feel the closer we get
To the last vow
[Pre-Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
I don't wanna end like this (Like this, yeah)
But the sting in the way you kiss me (I'm loving it)
Something within your eyes
Said it could be the last time
'Fore it's over!
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Just wanna be
Wanna bewitch you in the moonlight
Just wanna be
I wanna bewitch you all night
Just wanna be
I wanna bewitch you, one last time in the ancient rhyme
Just wanna be
I wanna bewitch you all night
[Solo: Nameless Ghouls (Fire & Aether)]
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Just wanna be
Wanna bewitch you in the moonlight
Just wanna be
Wanna bewitch you all right
Just wanna be
Wanna bewitch you in the moonlight
Just wanna be
I wanna bewitch you all night
[Outro]
All right!
Woh-woh-woh, wohh!

Pro Memoria |
[Verse 1: Cardinal Copia]
Lucifer, whispering
Silently into your mind
Who walks behind
Who walks behind
Standing tall, invincible
But do not forget your knives
To save your lives
To save your lives
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die
[Verse 2: Cardinal Copia]
Don't you vomit savage slurs
Spewed up wickedly
To hide from me
To hide from me
Navigate all alone
On this tempestuous sea
To ride with me
To ride with me
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die
[Solo: Nameless Ghoul (Fire & Aether)]
[Verse 3: Cardinal Copia]
Lucifer, whispering
Silently into your mind
Who walks behind
Who walks behind
Had you had the chance today
You would've sold out too
Ain't that right
Sweet Saint Peter?
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die
[Solo: Nameless Ghoul (Fire & Aether)]
[Chorus: Cardinal Copia]
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die
Don't you forget about dying
Don't you forget about your friend death
Don't you forget that you will die

Witch Image |
You have never stood this close to where you want to be
You have always waded in the shallows between me and the deep blue sea
You would never want me to appear
You never want this to be over
You never want it to reach out to the edge of time
While you sleep in earthly delight
Someone's flesh is rotting tonight
Like no other to you
What you have done you can not undo
I have always kept you closer than you have known
I am riding in the shadows behind you on a pale white horse
You would never want me to appear
You never want this to be over
Someone's flesh is rotting tonight
Like no other to you
What you have done you can not undo
While you sleep in earthly delight
Still your soul will suffer this plight
Like your father in hell
What you have sold you can not unsell

Life Eternal |
Can you hear me say your name forever?
Can you see me longing for you forever?
Would you let me touch your soul forever?
Can you see me longing for you forever?
I know the light grows darker down below
But in your eyes it is gone before you know
This is the moment of just letting go
She said, if you had life eternal...
Can you hear me say your name forever?
Can you feel me longing for you forever?
Forever
Would you let me touch your soul forever?
Can you see me longing for you forever?
Forever
We dance once more
I feel your hands are cold
Within your heart, a story to be told
This is the moment of just letting go
Can you hear me say your name forever?
Can you feel me longing for you forever?
Would you let me touch your soul forever?
Can you see me longing for you forever?
Forever... if you had life eternal?
