Walking in the subway
alone late at night New York city gangs everywhere in sight You feel their anger upon you you feel their hateful eyes walk a little faster now you're fighting for your life As they walk on closer their eyes burn down your back you feel a thousand cries not prepared for their attack A mission bell sent sign a sign that you board soon you've come this far, no turning back we hope you make it too Don't expect, sympathy we don't know, the word you walked my turf, insanity but in this place you die Your life is wasted your blood is tasted as it drips down the blade You didn't make it you couldn't take it you walked the subway you paid Your money's gone your clothes they're torn you're lying in a pool of blood You know you're leaving we watch you grieving but in this place you die Don't expect sympathy we don't know the word you walked my turf, insanity but in this place you die |

"Angels Holocaust"
As I walk through the blackened forest Thoughts of hate and anger fill my soul The charred remains of the holy rollers Scream repentance though it's far too late I fight back the laughter at what I see The suffering healers false destined prophecy He didn't think yesterday of the end of his life The brainwashed fools born again of a thousand lies Hate filled screams break the silence Terrifying dreams filling up your head Blasphemy thrusting out, in the masses it reigns The mask of hypocrisy is slowly unveiled Fear the angels holocaust, they're screaming Dreams of pain forever entering your head Death and hatred loathing, on mankind it feeds Earth is dead and gone now, we've brought it to an end For the last time I've been betrayed Never again will I subject myself to this hypocrisy Something is drawing me to the other side Only time will tell my true destiny As I travel through the astral plain I see the break of day As though the sky has burst in flames Before the storm I dread Lightning breaks across the sky Blackish-blue at night Riders ride on dismal clouds I scream at heaven's light |

As I travel through the astral plains
I see the break ahead as though the sky has burst in flames before the storm I dread lightning breaks across the sky blackish blue at night riders ride on dismal clouds I scream at heavens light Storming demons travel through the night the time is almost here I lay in a jacket of steel my scream no one hears I can feel the storm approaching the pain is its' reality the death I breathe is in the air I feel no more, no longer care The trumpets sound as I break free this vision I see just can't be me what is this that I have done why am I the chosen one Fight on, grab on stormrider stormrider Now the rider rides through the night the time is almost here as I lay wrapped in steel my scream no one hears Help me, through this hell inside my life's my own, it's my pride carry on my solid dream save me from this horrid scream Fight on, grab on stormrider stormrider |

I feel, you'll see, the night cold and dead
But watch out, we walk proud Together now until the end In these times we walk that line These frozen times Winter nights Bridge: Look up to the sky, see the moonlit night The winter night sends shivers up your spine But it's deep inside your mind that's where you may find Inner demons and your desire Don't give up, don't give up Don't give up, don't you ever give up If you find you've crossed that line Then it's time, a state of mind Believe in what you see Our sacrifice, reality In these times you walk that line these frozen times Winter nights |

The feeling that you get when we creep inside
You won't see us there, you won't feel our stare But when we're next to you we do all we can do To get the cold sweat out, watch you squirm about And as you try to move we grab and strangle you With all of your deceit and our reality Night Nightmares In the night Hell is coming down, your fate has turned around Too scared to make a sound Now you're frozen there in your human shell It's a nightmare I am the god of fear Night Nightmares In the night |

Once again we have laid another loved one to rest
And as we fight the grief in our hearts We must realize that the fate of death is inevitable Thus in turn we find that through our trials and tribulations Death may be the only real peace of mind |

Look, out in the distant sky
Open, up your weakened minds Feel, what's in store for you The jackals howling at the moon See, the curtain of the night Falling, down into your life Doom, is headed straight for you The night comes shining through Join us in our never ending journey Into the burning lake of fire Let us fill your helpless soul Fill it with sweet desire When the night falls When the moon's full Recall, the look in their eyes The sign of hat, it burns They've come for us, but we'll fight Till death Hypnotizing, paralyzing Brings me to my knees Tantalizing suicide Drives me to the edge When the night falls, when death crawls Frozen in my sleep Rippers slashing, terror laughing Numbers burning deep Join us in our never ending journey Into the burning lake of fire Let us fill your helpless soul Fill it with sweet desire When the night falls When the moon's full |

On the fall of our kingdom time would never be the same
cursed mortals,their ignorance brought about undying pain not of life nor of death light...we'll never see again Entombed, now and forever by the suns blinding light trapped by flesh turned to stone, set free by the night lavish lords that we once were condemned to never die as we watch the genocide from on high Long ago...the first age of earth from the dragons womb we're given birth protectors of our fathers right guardians of primordial light how can we save our dying world from the humans lack of sight The darkest corner of your mind is where we choose to live reminding you of what you've lost in your quest for dominance of our children all is gone except the terror in your soul our image cast in stone, which once was flesh and bone The time will come when we rise and reclaim our domain from the war and deceit which infests our world we are all around you watching, waiting...in the shadows |

The sympathy in my mind is growing cold
Life is like the burning sand so I'm told The time is coming near when solitude appears Take the chains of oppression away Through the sands of time I'm marching on The blistering rays of hate strengthen me The violent mass has shown my destiny Does all of this justify the rage inside Chorus: The desert rain is changing me It's called on me to rise A world of hate and malice Yes, that's the way it seems The hour glass is running out The serpent rides with me We shall rise and conquer Crushing all that's weak All that's light is burning out The serpent rides with me Repeat chorus |

I came into this world
A screaming infant Forced entry into this life As I grow the pain sustains Deep inside my soul Visions come and visions go But hate will never leave me As I grow the pain sustains Deep inside my soul Visions come and visions go But hate will never leave me Life and death never again I shall not return Soul sucking pious man I shall not return The reflection, an aging soul My body's old and cracked Death soon will be with me Coldness, inactive pain Soul sucked at the speed of light Trapped in someone else No please not again Evil reincarnated The cycle's spun once more Soul sucked at the speed of light |

Now I feel that I've reached the end
And the end of my quest is close at hand What have I done I've reached the end And as my life slowly fades away There's not one single thing that I'd change What have I done I've reached the end |

Through the flames I watch
As you plead on your knees The reaper awaits The ride that you take Through the lake, lake of flames Will decide your fate Was all of it worth eternal pain The path you chose to live in vain The river Styx is calling your number The hot winds of Hell breathe your name Bridge: On the night that it came to me It was like nothing I'd ever seen A vision darker than death itself A violent cloud straight from the depths of hell And that's when I saw my destiny As it approached I was frozen still I couldn't move, couldn't scream for help Out of the darkness it reached for me And that's when it planted the evil seed And that's when I saw my destiny Chorus: Travel in Stygian The damned scream my name Travel in Stygian I can't repent it's too late Travel in Stygian Hot winds blow upon me Travel in Stygian No remorse it's too late Bridge The henchman awaits you Yes that's right, step aboard We have a very long journey You owe us You got what you wanted In your mortal life Now your soul is in our grasp It's time Riding on the hot winds of hell Traveling down in the ship of pain I chose this fate no turning back The river Styx has called for me |

What do I see on the icy plains
The desolate one, it's my terrain The wind it blows cold, howling my name I am the king, the king of this waste Can't you see this barren land lain to waste Ravaged, scorched, yet frozen from your neglect I am the formless one, I came to save You are the chosen ones, you'll be my slaves I stand on the glacier above it all Watching them crumble, watching them crawl Iced Earth has risen, nature will fall Death and destruction mark them or fall Can you feel the madness here Drawing you all too near Earth, fire, water and air Save yourselves from despair We are together now Crush the cowards, do it now End the light, end the one We have come to save the young ones So on an on the story goes Destroying yourselves, the pain it shows Music - Jon Schaffer Lyrics - Jon Schaffer |
