This Ending Crowned in Blood 1. Crowned in Blood From the shadows he emerges Behind a shield of deceit Fearless and triumphant Determined to wear this crown of blood – at any cost Sitting on my throne Having visions of what must be done All bow at my feet This is the vision of "our" destiny I will save you all From what you thought was a normal life I will show you all That my dreams are also yours Obey and your dreams will be mine My halo will guide you in your doubts Do as I say you will be pleased When I bless you crowned in blood In the end you'll see – That every part of me Wish(es) you only well -On your trip through hell Obey and my dream will be yours You will soon see it in full force While you drown in the mud "Our" glory is now crowned in blood Wash away the sin -in a cleansing pact See the crown of blood – Built by flesh and ash With my scepter I will wield With my crown of blood and shield I will preach the dreams of mine In a way that is so grand Make you see, make you believe That all will kneel before "our" might Through our foes into eternal night Obey and all dreams will be mine An empire built on flesh and lies A testament to all that's false Our legacy crowned in blood Wash away the sin ¬-in a cleansing pact See the crown of blood -Built by flesh and ash All dreams end We now walk in the garden of death Seeing this blasphemous coronation Forced to kneel before a throne of lies Rivers of blood running into a well of now poisonous water 2. Birth of Evil Thrown into a grave of boiling turmoil By the ones supposed to hold us safe Life's lost value, now born to die Obvious to see what lies ahead Corpses piled wherever we may tread Hidden in the ground beneath our feet The birth of evil, mankind's defeat Blinded by the gruesome acts now done No longer human, evil grows inside Turn into beasts, or perish in our sights Obvious to see what lies ahead Corpses piled wherever we may tread Hidden in the ground beneath our feet The birth of evil, mankind's defeat Can't we see that we are lost? We must awake at any cost Will this be the end of days? Or can we be the wave of change? Will we hold our ground and stand? Or idolize our master's hand? Try to change the path ahead Mother earth unites us when we're dead Hidden in the ground beneath our feet The birth of evil, we must defeat In darkness grows our hope To stop this evil breed This poison in our veins The birth of evil 3. Devils Ripped and torn Falling through all floors A blinding storm In a moment all was gone We had seen the darkest dreams Come to life through all the screams All that was, no longer stands All the words, they had their plan Stripped of all that we once had All our dreams, they now seem mad Forced to see how all derailed Forced to see the birth of (this new) plague All went wrong Humiliation of the new goal Turned into devils The psychosis became too strong To break the spirit The devils' dream Taking all there is to take Bringing pain was no mistake Devils wear a deadly grin Devils hide beneath the skin Pushing further digging deep Bringing forth the devils' deeds If you raise your hand and scream Mouth is filled with gasoline 4. Will of Iron Heart is bursting through the chest A racing pulse of imminent disaster A shock to the system In this moment of unreal terror Lost within terminal chaos Burnt out housings, burning bodies Mutilated by infernal powers Now gather our strength – we must arise With a will of iron Now we will return – hunting them down Will of iron When the fires have ceased burning Nothing is quite like before – a new life – a new dawning Seeing corpses of the damned In ruins, we stand Now gather our strength – we must arise With a will of iron Now we will return – hunting them down Will of iron Hunt them, hang them, maim them – Will of iron Hunt them, drain them, burn them – Will of iron Hunt them, drain them, burn them, will of iron Now gather our strength – we must arise With a will of iron Now we will return – hunting them down Will of iron With a will of iron 5. Blood King 6. A Venomous Prison In the cover of night You will atone For sins, you're told you have committed Giving you answers to questions not asked Repeating the lie, it is the truth A venomous prison where thoughts go to die Don't drink their water It will blind and corrupt Believe in realities so far from our truth Being trapped in a well of poisonous water It colours the world into infinite grey Feeding the sickness, bleeding the mind Self-preservation, the way of the blind Blurring the vision, (it) sees only lies No antidote but a wide open eye A venomous prison where thoughts go to die Don't drink their water It will blind and corrupt A venomous prison Chaining down rational thoughts 7. Hope in Inferno Beautiful from a distance The light of the burning fields The land is left barren Life lays in ruins Must see beauty in mayhem – hope in inferno This is the darkness Harvesting hope The shadow of death Looming around us Now it has arrived Burning fury, burning eyes Try to take you all alive To consume you, to enslave Make you shiver, make you beg Seeking beauty in this mayhem Seeking hope in inferno Try to survive, hold on to life Avoiding the jaws – the shadow of death Seeking beauty in this mayhem Seeking hope in inferno Seeking beauty in this mayhem Seeking hope in inferno 8. Lord, Master, King and Emperor - All in One A consuming urge has been awakened An overwhelming wave of grandeur To be lord, master, king, and emperor – All in one The almighty and eternal vessel of torture and plague A beast in a long-lived peaceful slumber Slowly awakens and sharpens its teeth While smirkingly smiling saying all is at peace To be lord, master, king, and emperor – All in one Surrounding you with its snake like arms, A quick strangulation would be best for both parts A wave of destruction set in motion A turbulent thrive of forceful submission To crush and grind down all in its way To be lord, master, king, and emperor – All in one Wide open hungry mouth It will devour all in sight Flesh ripped apart, furious frenzy, blood drenched smiles The smell of death, would make them bow, make them obey Something is off, why do they rise, why don't they crawl? The smell of blood, awakened rage, must not fall prey. What happened now? Have the dying once again arisen? Or did they hide? Underneath the ground, in their ashened vaults? This newfound force, like hitting hard into a wall Not in the plans of a mad hungry demi-God This should not be, it's not the plan. What would be, has not passed Judgment day wouldn't last All is now unforeseen and so dark To be lord, master, king and emperor – All in one 9. Awakening Against all odds, we kept the beast at bay Searching for weakness, looking for the signs We will await the stars to soon align With burning fury – we'll drive this darkness back to hell We must awake them – the sleepers where they dwell Open their minds – so they can see that they are bound We will await the stars to soon align With burning fury – we'll drive this darkness back to hell Our will is undiminished – each death will make us strong We've set our aim – tear the beast limb from limb Awake the sleepers – now aware They've been dreamless – unaware Clean the water – open minds Seeking wisdom from the well No longer waiting, the stars have now aligned A new awakening – has driven this darkness back to hell 10.
