Prophet
05:46
|
|||
And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples that wage war, their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets and their tongues will rot in their mouths...
A forked tongue speaks
Enrage the weak
A prophet walks the land
With hooded eye
And practised lies
A prophet walks the land
Feed om your fear
What will you hear
When a prophet walks the land
Twisted outstretched hand
The madness fanned
A prophet walks the land
The seas will dry
Fire rain from the sky
When the prophet walks land
Two headed calves
On burning paths
Signs that the prophet walks the land
A plague on all
The weak can crawl
A prophet walks the land
The Father of lies
The devil in disguise
Fall to your knees and hail the prophet of the land
Gather the worthless, the unlucky, the alone
Muster the cripples the maimed and the prone
Gather the forgotten downtrodden germs
Amass the victims the cast aside worms
Bring me the shameful, the ugly, the wretched
Bring them to our side.....
Come my children my loyal followers they cannot stop us. Spread the word like a disease throughout the lands

Witchfinder

|

Robed in black
Rotten scriptures in hand
Prayer for the righteous
Scourge of the land
He casts his eye
Search for the signs
The mark of the devil
Any symbol that binds
The Witchfinder
Witchfinder
Witchfinder
"You kneel before us in this holy place of worship accused of witchcraft and sorcery.
You shall be removed from this place for examination... If this goes Ill for you, It will the pyre to save your poor wretched soul.
How do you plead...?
May God have mercy on us all"
~ The Witchfinder Rides Again, 1972.
Hunting & seeking
Question the fear
Probing for answers
Eye that sheds no tear
See through the scheming
Finger points the blame
Dragged Cursing screaming
Put to the flame
By the Witchfinder
Witchfinder
Witchfinder
And the priest doth glower
Cowards shield in the tower
The crones conceal the power
Try to evade the scour
Of the witchfinder
Witchfinder
Witchfinder
Witchfinder
Witchfinder
Black hearted Bitchfinder

Dying Wizard
04:20
|
|||
Deadly battle all is lost
Bloodlust woken count the cost
Fallen warriors on the ground
Sound retreat turn around
Beaten comrades working back
Steadfast hearts that start to crack
Mages men were tall and cruel
Defeated beaten & overthrew
Fall back fall back Retreat you fools
Blood drying in dying pools
Confusion chaos running wild
All is gone for the lost exiled
Stand and fight or kneel and crawl
No one heeds the wizards call
So close but so far away
Fall back starts but won't save the day
We fought and fought we've nothing left
The wizards left us to our death.
Fall back fall back Retreat you fools
Blood drying in dying pool
Dying Wizard lost last words
Barely mumbled lost and unheard
A fatal warning for us all
Retreat retreat or you will fall
Fall back fall back Retreat you fools
Blood drying in dying pool
Together we stand
Together we fall.
Together we stand
Together we fall.
Together we stand
Together we fall.
Together we fall.
Together we fall.

Bone-Eater
04:06
|
|||
Buried sleeping for a 100 years
Vilified lothed and feared
The Bone-eater slowly stirs
Comes a-creeping from its lair
Bone-eater Bone-eater
Snapping jaws needle fangs
Seeks the next Sacrificial lamb
Rend the flesh strip the bones
The creature lurks the dirty tombs
Bone-eater Bone-eater
Feeding time now it roams
Beast wants your crunchy bones
Seeking yer marrow suck it dry
Crushing bones make you scream & cry
Bone-eater Bone-eater
Bone-eater raise its filthy snout
Bone-eater'll sniff you out
Bone-eater bone-eater
Never sated never fed
Whispers telling of it's dread
and as the world teeters
Comes time for the bone-eaters
Bone-eater Bone-eater
Bone-eater bone-eater

Ancient Bones
05:36
|
|||
Ancient bones relics in the dust
Fading echos heard at Nights cusp
Hallowed robes frayed and worn
Neglected splendor beyond forlorn
Ancient bones gathered from the one
Ancient bones in the setting sun
Ancient bones gathered from the one
Ancient Bones
Shadowed heroes the spectral men
Unsung deeds lost in time again
Fleeting memory's fade at night
Rage again with the coming light
Ancient bones gathered from the one
Ancient Bones in the dying sun
Ancient bones gathered from the one
Ancient Bones
New day raising comes ablaze
Flaming torches burn dawns haze
We'll rise again we'll fight once more
For the one that we all adore
Ancient bones from the one
Ancient Bones in the dying sun
Ancient bones works begun
Ancient Bones nothings won

800 Years
06:08
|
|||
800 years of waiting
800 years of pain
Trying to feel the daylight
He's trying to taste the rain
Darkness in the dungeon
Locked up like a thief
Hidden from his people
Wrapped up in his grief
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Feel the Wizards pain
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Crawling from the tunnel
Stumble from the gloom
Sneaking from the underground
Digging through the 'shrooms
Stealing from the shadows
Keep in brother moon's shade
Longing for his freedom
Hope begins to fade
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Feel the Wizards pain
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Feel the Wizards pain
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Ease the Wizards pain
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Join the cult of Dirtbird
Sorcery is brewing
Time to pay some dues
Dirtbirds on his way back
The crow gives no clues

Ogres Breath
05:17
|
|||
Slowly lumbers slowly comes
Gravestone teeth loose in gums
Dragging arms Tree trunk legs
Dirty tongue out for the Dregs
Rotten stench heralds certain death
Stinking horrible ogres breath
Crushing fingers grabbing you
Squeeze & squeeze & squeeze until your blue
Skin like stone hard & rough
Terrible eyes staring & tough
Rotten stench heralds certain death
Stinking dirty rotten ogres Breath
Greedy ogre tall and cruel
Ferocious killers in a duel
Hide and cower bow in fear
Stay away from it if it's near
Rotten stench heralds certain death
Stinking horrible ogres breath
Slowly lumbers after you
Gravestone teeth loose in gums
Dragging arms Tree trunk legs
Dirty tongue out for the Dregs
Rotten stench heralds certain death
Stinking horrible ogres breath

Titans
06:13
|
|||
Grasping blindly from the grave
Chill the bones of fearless brave
Ground to dust & ground to dirt
Burnt to ash remove the hurt
Dispair as death rides with us
The oracle predicts it thus
Strive until the bitter end
Titans start their long decent
Weary pilgrims turn their back
Mourning robes a dreary black
Titans fill the empty graves
Overlords turned helpless slaves
Darkening shadows that we shun
Evil hearts we hide as one
And the memory of ghosts
Haunt the Titans become the hosts
And the world burns while we wait
Sacrifice just comes too late
Lie in the grave feel the weight
Grasping blindly its our fate.
Sacrifice just comes too late
Grasp blindly it our fate
Sacrifice just comes too late
Too late
Sacrifice comes too late
Too late
Too late

Home
04:35
|

I have haunted the realms of darkness
Died on trampled green fields
Hid in ruined starkness
Been carried on many shields
Bore witness at the dawning
Raised swords with quiet despair
The life blood ebbs slowly
Broken souls laid bare
Watched disaster sweep the land
Fire, famines and plague
And as plans collapse or bloom
Reasons why grow vague
Wept over countless bones
Encouraged lies & deceit
Bowed before the mighty thrones
Watched them lose that hallow seat
I'll not Wait (I'll not Wait)
I'm coming home (Coming home)
I'll not wait (I'll not Wait)
I'm coming home(Coming home)
I turn my head to home
Coming home, coming home.
