Occult The Enemy Within 1. Souls We the souls of evil unite We the black figures appear Battlefield is near, Occult legion laugh We have no fear, strong and rough We are spawned by forces We are teached by the master We are dressed in black Our goal lies there We stand in pride Side by side We raise the signs Who searches will find The horses are packed armed with artillery The faces paint black, causes more immortality Our weapons are loaded, each one has two Our clothing is strong, forged in blood The storm awaits, high in the air And darkened clouds gather We shall fight forever And blood will flow...They shall know! They cannot kill... They cannot kill...what moves in black They cannot kill...what's stronger They cannot kill...what's already dead 2. Inquisition Of The Holy Holy man, believer in Christ To follow him is the purpose in his life The new doctrine has accepted there's no God Opposition, completely swept away Believers, a menace to society Must be, estinguished to the root Inquisition, of all that is holy A new age has begun today All that is holy hunted yet another day Christianity is no more, the lies have gone away All deceiving priests burnt at the stake Remainder of the flock is starting to awake Searching the houses of believers To prove their believe in God The presence of only a crucifix Results in having them shot Let us burn them on a stake Let us throw them in a lake If this god is not a lie He will prevent for them to die Who died in pain, died not in vain At least we will know, no god will show Inquisition of the holy... Holy man, believer in Christ To follow him is the purpose in his life Conceilling the true believers His safety hoping to achieve Torture will get the truth out of him Cleaning the Earth of all this filth Inquisition of the holy A new age has begun today 3. Crossing The Boundaries (Of Life And Death) Life - The endless way to go Death - Soon I leave to die Life - Is the only way I know Death - About death they lie Soon - I pass away Experience - What will be next? The end - In a coffin I will lay Because - I passed away today Hell or heaven, I know there is something there Black or white. Even color I will share The end or start? I'm hoping for a decent death Pain or pleasure, I thought life was the one that hurted !? When I entered death I felt the torture start Death is more than pain My body screams insane I consider this as hell Through pain and heat I dwell An offer for the master The one who's here in charge The one I obeyed on Earth His servant I will be In hell I burn to see... The pain I deserve... 4. Selfbetrayed Don't tell me there is a God Let me decide for myself I don't believe your worthless lie Just leave me here, let me die Don't tell me there is a God If he would be? Where is he? Preaching mercy, sympathy and faith While there is only revenge and hate (you) say God is good, God is omiscient (you) say God is light, God is your friend (you) say God is kind, God is everywhere (you) say heaven is real, pray to be there I say you fool, are you that blind? This God is false, he will take your mind Belief in yourself and you will find the truth Inside your mind exiled Don't tell me there is a God Telling me to turn the other cheek Satisfaction based on revenge Hear our swords as the clang I control my own life Tell me not what to do If I would like to end it There is no say for you Your religion is just a way To control my mind Therefore I am my own God And I don't serve mankind Stupid fools, you are betraying yourselfs Look at me, I'm free to do as I please No commandments, to tell me what to do Stop praying, there is no God listening you See the truth, and deny your control Don't be a wimp, it's your life afterall So why would you dedicate it to a God? What all he has done is nothing more than a fraud Stupid fools, don't believe all that shit This brainwashing, will drag you down in their pit Priests and churches, institutions for the dumb Don't be a fool, your senses can't be that numb See the truth, and deny your control Don't be a wimp, it's your life afterall So why would you dedicate it to a God? What all he has done is nothing more than a fraud 5. Twisted Words (My Darkest Emotions) Why are my words so twisted That answers turn into questions Misunderstanding, they keyword Finding answers, my point of view... So it seems, its black Can't explain, images of torture Expressions of hate See myself on the edge of suicide So do you, so do I So do you and so do I I can't reveal my fear My anger to the one I hate The innocence from which it starts Grows out to be reality I can't reveal my pain My anger to the one I hate Breaking these rules of this morbid game See it as a relief of mind See it as a relief "Slave of impure behaviour Baptized in unholy water Caught in a maze of fire Searching for answers" Artificial ecstasy... Obsessed, dedication, violence and trust My darkest emotions...arise Obsessed, loyalty, violence and trust My hate...is no obscure Possessed, reality, violence and trust My pain...I can't reveal Confess, violation, hate and trust My fear...I can't reveal Hope you die, so do I Hope you die in pain 6. Through Dark And Light I Dwell Unpleasant signs I have made I drugged myself with alcohol Cut myself with a razorblade A pitty there is no live phonecall (to order) a trip to hell already made Keep going, every step I fall Hallucinate, seeing shades Oh help me up, to face the truth Please, oh please don't let me live I can't stand this all Oh Lord, oh Lord, please send me back To the very depths of hell I'm seeing things that you can't see I cannot stand the heat I feel The burning pain inside me is real Through dark and light I dwell Through dark and light I dwell I feel my life going down the drain Through light and dark I dwell I feel the end of my life drawing near 7. One Way Out Seeing, my life as it is No purpose, no goal, no destiny Feeling...my feelings are numb What the fuck do I care Violence...is my only way Disagree and you will know why Religion hands no answer to me A solution can not be found I don't know what to do Climbing the walls of sanity I can't take it much longer These days of ongoing torment Hatred...is all that remains Directed at all I see Why are you judging me? Point your finger at someone else You stop talking to me I don't believe a word you say No one has an answer for me A solution must be found I don't know what to do Climbing the walls of sanity I can't take it much longer These days of ongoing torment There is only one way out Suddenly I know the answer Blood is flowing from my whrists Soon I will depart this world And will be free... I'm getting cold, bloodflow Grows weaker, I'm almost there I can't await the altered state of total freedom My life is dripping away, it all changes today I will not repent, for now I see my misery ends...free at last 8. Passive Relations Passive relations The lack of knowledge Passive relations Mastering your voice Dull silhouette, moves with elegance Chooses for a life in a fantasy Lives her life in an unreal dream As a shade she glides towards me As I stare in your eyes You see life as a performance Show without a happy end With ideals like life has given them to you Depressed you turn your face away Behind every smile, I feel sarcasm Caught between unknown fires I'm not blind I see you suffer 9. Eyes Of Blood In a land so dark and cruel, centuries ago Figures in black feed themselves with blood A major castle shining in moonlight in shadows Shall I proceed? Shall I go on? The travel to become what I became On the dominion I was searching by night It was something I had in mind Closer and closer deprived of light In the sky I saw an omen of death Trees were waving me in the wind stay left Guidance to the castle of fear Faceless eyes of blood, drawing near Mighty shadows rise Sharpened fangs disguised Entering my veins Warm flow of blood Death as human, reborn as a beast Transylvania... Transylvania... Transylvania... Reborn in...Transylvania... Dying body Seeing statues Hunger growing Quest for blood For centuries I have roamed the night Life as an undead shunning the lights Slaughtering the creatures of God As they see my eyes of blood 10. Until The Battle Death and terror, words divine I seek the enemy, across the line To fight and kill I was born To slay the innocent without scorn Walking the battlefields To check out my yields The death I have caused All slain without loss We will meet again Until the battle We will fight again Until the battle Come in and join the fight Gathering in the night Our swords shine, in the light Enemies froze with fright I kill without conscience I'm under control Don't tell me who to fight I won't obey at all The fight has begun Already we have won Victorious and proud All warriors will shout Until the battle Until the battle Until the battle 11. Delusions I tear no one, my powers are great Stay away, or I will seal your fate What is the change that I feel inside? Challenge me, prepare to meet your doom Mock me, you will see your maker soon What is the urge that I feel inside My head is pounding I can taste the pain I have to face it, it must be inside my brain How can I end this misery?!? This pain inside is killing me Tell me there is a remedy Am I condemned to live in hell? But you my friend won't live to tell I see my hands, but they are out of control I am doing things which aren't planned at all Why did you come here? This can't be my fault My dead friend is laying there on the floor This pain inside, just keeps asking for more I'll have to find some more medicine for me My dear wife, just walked through the door And sees my friend lying dead on the floor She looks at me, I look at her I punch her out, right in the face I stab her, and spray her with mace Chop off her legs, they are just in the way And now it's time for one great lay Finally the pain fades away A miracle that happend today If only this would last But I need some more medicine fast Stalking the streets, so I can live without this pain Luring them home, all their screams will be in vain Smilling with pride, this new work fills me with joy Nowhere to hide, time to get me a new toy All these bodies start to get in the way I'll bury them and then on I slay My backyard must be big enough The neighbours start to smell a rat No problem, I didn't went to them yet Just some more medicine for me This is the way for me to survive At least for now, it will keep me alive Medicine...it's all I need Line-up: Maurice Swinkels - vocals Rachel Heyzer-Kloosterwaard - vocals Richard Ebisch - guitars Leon Pennings - guitars Siors Tutthof - bass Erik Fleuren - drums All songs by Occult Lyrics by Maurice, Leon and Sjors Produced by: Harris Johns and Martin Erfurt, MusicLab Studios, Berlin Released by Foundation 2000 Cover by: Misja Baas website: www.occult.nu
