The Arcane Order The Machinery of Oblivion 1. Prologue: The Machinery of Oblivion 2. Infinite Ghost Anathema I have this unholy vision inside my head I am attached to the darkest anchors Armless and flameless and ready to die To the sound of a loveless tragedy I'm counting the number of strangers Attached to the darkest anchors I serenade to the darkest The beast within me Through the darkest hours in my deathbed I'm about to die This summer's the darkest salvation The sound of infinite souls I have felt all of your presence In those dark wars I slay the heart of origin I'm about all this anger, outrageous Outrageous to the promise... I serenade to the darkest The beast within me Through the darkest hours in my deathbed I have to live with this vision inside my head Faithless dark days led to all my dark nights Through serenades of the unsung Ignite the essence of fire This summer's the darkest salvation The sound of infinite souls I have felt all of your presence In those dark wars I slay the heart of origin I'm about all this anger, outrageous Outrageous to the promise... 3. The Superior Collision In your flames awakened Severed by the hands of betrayal Forgiveness is for the weak Vengeance is what I seek There is no truth No truth to be found There are only lies Corruption thrives on the glow In those black eyes This is a war of tyrants Death to us all I bleed in vain for a dead cause Babylon is ready to fall In tragedy beloved Through nightmares unloved Unearthed to reign again All my battles left in victory In tragedy beloved Through nightmares unloved Unearthed to reign again Forever my motivated resist There is no love No love to be found There is only hate Corruption thrives on the glow In those black eyes I have longed for a war embraced by myself Nothing remains to be loved again Something that in the end becomes the wire that will rip off my head In tragedy beloved Through nightmares unloved Unearthed to reign again All my battles left in victory In tragedy beloved Through nightmares unloved Unearthed to reign again Forever my motivated resist Corruption thrives on the glow In those black eyes All hail the darkness that has evolved Like the fire of thousand burning suns We are born of the darkest hearts May our hearts burn forever I am nothing. 4. In a Hail of Deadly Bullets There is no determination On hate I thrive to avoid oblivion Faithless - There is still blood on the floor It's so authentic you better just admit it Endlessly pursuing the dark that lies in you Smothering on the failure of others A threnody we bare witness to This is the last time We ride after gold Burning forever in the sky Everytime I fight for revolution A part of me is dying My youth is lost In a hail of deadly bullets In a hail of deadly bullets This is the last time We ride after gold Burning forever in the sky Everytime I fight for revolution A part of me is dying My youth is lost In a hail of deadly bullets ...Of all the others A threnody inside these infinite structures. 5. Servants of a Darker World In the land of holy where terror reigns Trails of damnation marks the lands Servants of a darker world with fanatic minds Disciples of the unlight with eyes so blind Victimized by acts of evil Obscure thoughts like from the devil The frantic rage of legions coming To reap the earth of light Servants of a darker world are rising With faith burning like a thousand suns Hordes of blind believers breeding insanity Black souled beasts to murder again Infidels caught at the mercy of madness Illfated mankind doomed for eternity Victimized by seeds of hatred Terror reaps the earth forsaken A world of chaos rises and destroys The promise of eternal life above In the land of holy where darkness rules Life enslaved by scriptures written in books of old Servants of a darker world with fanatic minds Disciples of the unlight with eyes so blind Servants of a darker world are rising With faith burning like a thousand suns. 6. Bloodlust Redefined in the abyss of a predator’s mind A vampiric feast to satisfy my hunger I kill in a serial thrill to collect in the night I stalk through the fear I have created Merciless in a serial thrill The ungodly thirst and sacrifice Elaborate the vice inside the Bloodlust - the ungodly thirst and sacrifice Bloodlust - the darkness has fallen I am right behind you And out for blood Like the seeker I am Eleborate the vice inside the Bloodlust - the ungodly thirst and sacrifice Bloodlust - the darkness has fallen Bloodlust - modulation of the heart I only persist in the absence of passion In the decadent hours of mistrust Oh how I bleed... I perceive through the callousness of dying And now I feel the other side The revolt of violence - the dark interior The revolt of violence - the inferior in me My lifelessness is the unrest in my soul I kill in a serial thrill to collect in the night I stalk through the fear I have created Merciless in a serial thrill The ungodly thirst and sacrifice Elaborate the vice inside Bloodlust - the ungodly thirst and sacrifice Bloodlust - the darkness has fallen Bloodlust - modulation of the heart I only persist in the absence of passion In the decadent hours of mistrust Of mistrust I bleed the daggers I'm bleeding out the words of my soul. 7. A Sevenfold Condemnation Only through failure have I found essence of security And through this struggle I separate the uncertainty You are kept deep inside my undying darkness My bitterness has been building up years For I am praising what I create through all my fears Now tearless I rest in the arms of the unfaithless The scars left burning in the phase of a thousand lies Our love will fade away A sevenfold condemnation In a thousand dying hearts A thousand dying hours A thousand... Only through failure faithless Can I accentuate true convalescence Free from the everlasting torment Free from your dark empty stare Your dark empty stare The scars left burning in the phase of a thousand lies Our love will fade away A sevenfold condemnation In a thousand dying hearts A thousand dying hours ...Frozen and closer Only through failure have I found essence of security And through this struggle I separate the uncertainty As shadows devour enlightment The grief of the unsung awakens the tormented The scars left burning in the phase of a thousand lies Our love will fade away A sevenfold condemnation In a thousand dying hearts A thousand dying hours A thousand... Transcend security to be illusion. 8. Breathe the Poison In clouds above vultures are circling the sky Waiting to feast on the remnants of your mind Your mind is a place in which all demons dwell Haunting your soul imprisoned in this hell You tremble with fear As you walk the barren lands The world seems like an empty place as you reach out your hand Sombre truth Awakens you A rush of blood runs through your head and you feel the world So cold All is said all words seem obsolete The path is long the path is dark and obscene The will to live the lust for life has decayed In a soulless state slowly devoured day by day Swallow your pride Forget the rigid past You are your own worst enemy bound to fail at last Lick the wounds Erase the pain The twisted riddles in your head leave you with No hope Breathe the poison Breathe it in Let it burn under your skin Breathe the poison Breathe it in Let it be your final sin Cries from within echoes in your mind Like the undead you walk the earth leaving life behind Reeking your fear As the end draws near You will be punished for your mistakes and for your bitter lies Embrace your doom Take the final breath Your shattered existence takes your life and buries you Breathe the poison Breathe it in Let it burn under your skin Breathe the poison Breathe it in Let it be your final sin. 9. Flames of Liberation All there is left is liberation Regaining through will As the ashes ignites into embers In the midst of devastation Set this world ablaze Hence the arcane The name of the order The arcane order I will behold a new found glory In desperation of those who cries out For flames of liberation Bring me the horizon For I have fooled myself Into believing that I am invinsible And I will give you flames To bleed the lie for liberation From this history of absolution I am only human Why have we forsaken those who reign In our falling nightmares Ride the wings of pestilence The war is not over Set this world ablaze Hence the arcane The name of the order The arcane order I will behold a new found glory In desperation to bleed the lie I bleed myself inside the horror of this ungodly love Why have we forsaken those who reign We have not won For flames of liberation Bring me the horizon For I have fooled myself Into believing that I am invincible And I will give you flames To bleed the lie for liberation From this history of absolution I am only human. 10. The Sanity Insane Trapped in a world of unbearable existence Shattered by a fate so gruesome and absurd The voice inside your head Like needles deep within Emotions lying dead The insane becomes the sane And you question all the wrongs and rights The pain that burns you from inside A broken spirit beaten and abused A life in punishment and gloom You are afraid to wear your own skin Chaos prevails and spreads deep from within Haunted by demons who feed upon your soul At the end of the rope your death will unfold Nightmares untold The secret lies deep within you Nightmares unfold The pain will always haunt you Panic takes your soul In fear of the unknown In this silent hell Forever you will dwell Repulsed by your own fragile personality Try to escape from the horrors of the past The mental torment weakens your sense of reality Your destiny sealed and damned for all eternity Nightmares untold The secret lies deep within you Nightmares unfold The pain will always haunt you.
