The End of the World Open the gate Feel the wind Of devastation Of desolation Blows like the breath of a thousand vultures Wheeling above your head In Nomine Patris Et Filii Et Spiritus Sancti You know it's coming Nothing or no-one will save you now Forsake your life What's the use of waiting for a salvation? Now it's too late Did I do everything I wanted to do? Did I forget something I could regret? I know the end is near I feel cold like ice It's as if I was already dead I know our time has come Open the gate Hear toll the knell Kneel down Pray the lords Did you ever think about how will be The end of the world? It smells like death It smells like past Like two thousand years Like millions of dead men It smells like... The end of the world The Inner Pain Back to reality For the first time in my life I thought it was good to be alive But I was wrong... The dreams of yesterday faded away There is no more hope No more hope Back to reality Where all is dull and grey Where living is everyday an ordeal Where everything can break down in a split second What a mess I've made of my life Will I have the strength to live one more day like today? Blinded by a past I don't want to see anymore And a future from where a bleakness is all I can see What a mess I've made of my life Will I have the strength to live one more day like today? Back to reality For the first time in my life I thought it was good to be alive But I was wrong... The dreams of yesterday faded away There is no more hope No more hope I just can't carry on this way... Down Under Ground Deep into the dark We all look for a way out Is it our eyes? Light was just an illusion We all fall into the hole Sinking into the dust Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Down under ground And the ache keeps growing And the pang keeps digging And the pain keeps creeping And life keeps fading away We all fall into the hole Sinking into the dust Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Down under ground Deep into the throes of hope we are all waiting for a sign But the only thing we cannot doubt about Is that we have to decline We see no light We cannot fight We live into the night We are under ground Following the Funeral Path As we are taken out of the womb The only certainty we have Is to end in a tomb Following the funeral path Like a funeral procession We are all walking towards our end Heading for disaster From womb to tomb Is the story of our lives Day of Suffering I kneel and shut my eyes Hoping tomorrow never comes How could I forget all these dull memories of my life? Do we have to hope against hope? Deceiving ourselves with lies How to keep faith in life as we all fall down one by one? One by one... Each new day is another day of suffering Of shivering flesh Here in the cold And as the day is dawning I know a part of me is getting colder Compare the joys and pains that occured in your life And tell me if you want to go on living I kneel and open my eyes Wishing today had never come How could I see in a world where only blind can see? Do we have to hope against hope? Deceiving ourselves with lies How to keep faith in life as we all fall down one by one? One by one... Nothing Left But Silence Sometimes I wish I had no past No future No history No family Sometimes I wish I came from nowhere And went nowhere I wish I had nothing to hang on to Nothing to give me the will to live Or to die I wish I was just passing through the years Sometimes I wish I was out of time Sometimes I wish I was no-one Sometimes I wish I was nothing Sometimes I wish I was no-one Sometimes I wish I was nothing I wonder how it is when there's nothing left but silence Still Alive For how long shall life be considered as a gift of God? I'm still in the land of the living Still alive But for how long? Ice-cold Half-dead Sick at heart I'm alive Anguish Perish End it all I'm alive Anguish Perish End it all Dead How many dead? How many alive? I'm still in the land of the living Still alive But for how long? Ice-cold Half-dead Sick at heart I'm alive Anguish Perish End it all I'm alive Anguish Perish End it all Dead Dead Waste of Time Ignorance is a gift that no-one should lose... Condemned to live in a world of disaster Condemned to contemplate our won disaster Blessed are the poor in spirit Blessed are the sick Blessed are the starving Blessed are the merciful Blessed I am not But cursed from birth... ...and for eternity Like ridiculous puppets we are running after time But time slips away Inexorably Relentlessly We will all die Just slipping away As if we had never come to life Just fading away All of us De Profundis Let me drift Stay away from me I'm bleeding Let me sleep For a hundred years I'm bleeding What will be my very last words? I'm bleeding What will I feel when I'll breathe my last? I'm bleeding How time flies How years go by I'm bleeding Watch us laugh in the wind Our fate is sealed I'm bleeding Everything fades to grey I'm bleeding Everything is so desolate I'm bleeding Life is but a gaping wound I'm bleeding I feel like the end of the world I'm bleeding Lyrics in plain text format	Line up Duke: Vocals, guitars, bass, keyboards, programming, sampler Artwork Info Recorded and mixed at the frozen citadel February / March 1998 All songs written, produced, recorded, mixed and performed by Duke All artwork by Bomb Photo by L.077 Review Every once in a while I get to listen to a cd I never heard of by a band I never heard of, and it turns out to be great. Godkiller definitely is one of those. It's a very unique style of metal, and for the people who heard the Godkiller song on the "In Decay we Trust" collection cd, it's also very different from that. This is a kind of Industrial black death metal, maybe a bit like a mix of Samael and Fear Factory. Very nice to hear something so different from this one-member band. Rating: 8 out of 10
