Innocence tainted by pure lunacy
Cursed by the slash of a shape-shifting beast Oh no, this can't be Demonic infection, a doomed changeling His future concealed as he begs to be told A kiss from the gypsy, he'll never grow old Oh no, this can't be Demonic infection, a doomed changeling (Chorus) Even a man who's pure And says his prayers by night (He won't hear your prayers) Man become a wolf When the wolf bane blooms, And the autumn moon is bright (There's a full moon tonight) Man may become a wolf. He who is bitten by a wolf and lives Possession soon follows, no use to resist Oh no, this can't be Cursed by the moonlight, a doomed changeling The madness a turmoil that swells up inside To truly find peace is to truly die Oh no, this can't be Cursed by the moonlight, a doomed changeling Now comes the rampage, a killing spree Hunting his loved ones comes instinctively Oh no, it's maddening A shape-shifting demon of pure lunacy A shot from the darkness tears through its flesh A bullet of silver lays it to rest Oh no, it's maddening An innocent victim finds his peace. |

So the beast resides in me
Deep down I always knew I never really did fit in So diverse from all of you Let him who comprehends Know the number of the beast It's a number of a man A number just for me As the boy becomes a man Father's minions pave the way Set in motion now, Armageddon, Final conflict, end of days I embrace the hounds of hell And the power they oblige For the task that lies ahead The Nazarene I'll crucify They'll see the raptures of our kingdom They'll see the truth to mankind I'll show what hell truly is The monotony of their lives (Chorus) When the Jews return to Zion And a comet fills the sky The Holy Roman Empire rises And you and I must die From the eternal sea he rises Creating armies on either shore Turning man against his brother Till man exists no more Nazarene, what can you offer? Since the hour you vomited forth from the gaping wound of a woman, you have done nothing but drown mens' soaring desires in a deluge of sanctimonious morality. I was conceived of a jackal. Your pain on the cross was but a splinter compared to the agony of my father. I will drive deeper the thorns into your rancid carcass, you profaner of Isis. Cursed Nazarene, I will avenge thy torment. Now Disciples of the Watch See your Prince of Darkness rise Through famine and destruction The Four Horsemen at my side I demand a victory, I demand your sacrifice Or spend all eternity In the flaccid guts of Christ! (Chorus) When the Jews return to Zion And a comet fills the sky The Holy Roman Empire rises And you and I must die From the eternal sea he rises Creating armies on either shore Turning man against his brother Till man exists no more |

I...I am a bastard son
Conceived of a hundred men Now I'm the Chosen One Back, looking back Father William called me Johnny But my mother called me Jack I...I scream out to you As I see them take you Hell, it put me through You...you gave me life Then ripped out my emotion And replaced it with a knife I cut you once, I cut you twice You're my midnight sacrifice You shamed me...you shame God You scream my name, and now you're gone I've seen the rain wash over you a thousand times Your flesh summons me God knows why Repent your sins to me Now...you're no different now Still the same, the Devil's whore Lilith on the prowl I...I've got something for you I know what real pain is And you will too I cut you once, I cut you twice You're my midnight sacrifice You shamed me...you shame God You scream my name, now you're gone |

Every time you think about it
It tears you up inside You curse the day your mother told you, your father died Now you're always searching Searching for the reason why I've gone But I will always be here By your side, through the darkest night Here I'll stand on the firing line Here I'll walk through the field where I died I will fight and let the voice ring true I am the ghost Standing next to you Every night you go to sleep You pray the Lord my soul to keep You don't know I've not gone away You see I watch over fighting men So they can have peace again And maybe someday you will all be free Here I'll stand on the firing line Here I'll walk through the field where I died I will fight and let the voice ring true I am the ghost Standing next to you You speak to me And I feel your pride Assuring me I'll never die I write Mother... "He's here with me..." He's in our minds He's in our souls Of sacrifice his story's told He holds the flame of freedom for all to see Here we stand on the firing line Here I'll walk in the field where I fight I will fight or die for liberty With the ghost standing next to me Don't tread on me...live free or die!!! To our fallen brothers You died to keep us free To our fallen brothers Who gave us liberty!!! |

Since the dawn of time, he's been here
Forgotten son, testing all our fears Nature's mistake, he sees no end The dragon's child, walks among man For centuries past, many tribes know the tales Of men not returning, when they've gone there And those who've returned, can't describe what they've seen Their hair has turned white, and they've gone insane Chorus: Oh, beware the blackened water The creature has come to take you away Oh, beware unholy water On this dying day |

A mastermind in the old watchtower
Prying eyes must never find. Playing God in the final hour Insanity, such a fine line Overwhelmed by the mourning process And the loss of his dearly loved The Doctor's work is now obsession What is life? What's beyond? He wants to know what it's like to be God Creating life with his own hands To reanimate lifeless tissues The Devil's work, the doctor's plan A man of wealth and a genius mind A slave to passion and his morbid side Robbing graves of the newly dead Erratic tendencies, a troubled mind I will create in my own image If God can then why can't I? No thought of the consequences I've got to know the meaning of life Lightning strikes, it's the witching hour The monstrosity comes alive A victim of man's vanity Born in delirium, a deranged child He turns his back on his own creation Chaos ensues, the innocent die Who's the monster? Who's the victim? Crucify!!! Crucify!!! |

Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in destiny? True love may come only once in a thousand lifetimes... I too have loved...they took her from me I prayed for her soul, I prayed for her peace When I close my eyes I see her face, it comforts me When I close my eyes Memories cut like a knife The blood is the life, and Christ I defy My sworn enemy...birth of a new creed Is this my reward for serving God's own war? The blood I've spilled for faith fulfilled To damn her, a disgrace, you spit back in my face I served you loyally, and you spew blasphemy I avenge with darkness, the blood is the life The Order of the Dragon, I feed on human life There are far worse things awaiting man than death Come taste what I have seen I'm spreading my disease I will feed upon His precious child The human race will bleed, they will serve my need I avenge with darkness, the blood is the life The Order of the Dragon, I feed on human life I am the dragon of blood, a relentless prince of pain Renouncing God of His throne My blood is forever stained For true love, I shall avenge I defy the creed that damned her |
