Dark times - hard times coming; challenges, lie ahead
Buckle up, draw on cunning, wipe the tears, fight instead
Read the signs, keep it brief, stand in line, gritted teeth
Read the signs, swallow grief, look beyond to what lies beneath
Into the fire, Into the heat,
Into the blaze, do not retreat
Panic and fear, well up inside, draw on strength, you decide,
Overcome, and cast aside, embrace the challenge, embrace the ride
Look at the paths, look at the threads, be ready, ignore the dread
All your risk, has been spread, Now you're ready, to go ahead
Into the fire, Into the heat,
Into the blaze, do not retreat
Drawing from deep, inside yourself, crossing over, spanning the gulf
Obstacles, all will be dealt, one by one, those challenges melt
The final battle, you got well timed, now it's over, all defined
Ground yourself, clear your mind, the final hurdle, it's now behind
Out of the fire, Out of the heat,
Out the blaze, now you're complete
Out of the furnace, Out of the hole
Dust off the ashes, cleanse your soul
Out of the fire.

alluring nymph, humble and meek
spreading her scent, preying on the weak
wanders the land, for eternity
seducing men, ignore their plea
blind revenge, instills dread
caught between, living and the dead
Primal force, remains unleashed
Final revenge, from a ghostly beast
demonic goddess, jealous with grief
dysphonic presence, your disbelief
betrayed by love, tortured by loss
rejected from above, and by the cross
Primal force, remains unleashed
Final revenge, from a ghostly beast
watch your back, walking at night
hackles are up, your fist clenched tight
senses high, your resolve cracks
in the moonlight, it's you she attacks

Earthbound spirit, mutated form.
Earthbound spirit, repent and reform
Earthbound spirit, kicking up a storm
Earthbound spirit, too late to warn.
Unknown spirit, making things fall
Unknown spirit, climbing up the wall
Sinner!
Reform!
Sinner!
Conform!
Unknown spirit, cease and desist
Unknown spirit, stop! I insist.
all those markings, stains and footprints
all that noise, scratching and rustling.
Sinner!
Reform!
Sinner!
Conform!
Earthbound spirit, I challenge you!
Earthbound spirit, your leave's now due.
Earthbound spirit, demise ensues.
Earthbound spirit, I purge you!
Evil spirit, get out of my head.
Evil spirit, kill me instead!
Sinner!
Reform!
Sinner!
Reform!
Conform!

A monster lurks, beneath
Heavily stained, dark brown teeth
Huge gaping, wide mouth
Burning hot, to the touch
Famine!
Feed!
Drought!
Greed!
Visible vapour from the body
Chomping jaws swallow non-stop
Eating corpses from the morgue
From the gutters, scavenging offal
Famine!
Feed!
Drought!
Greed!
After his death, the corpse rots quick
His gullet was found to be abnormally big
Pus filled body, his abdominal cavity
Filled with putrid leaking ulcers

Empty houses, Empty homes, empty streets, empty roads
Empty villages, Empty towns, Empty castles, with empty crowns
Empty faces, empty minds, hollow people, with empty lives
Manufactured, in our mold, automated, we're controlled
Fake and fractured, it's untold, all the same, in a digital world
The smoke and mirrors, we can't see, creates this illusion, of being free
Manufactured, in our mold, automated, we're controlled
Smoke and mirrors, we can't see, creates an illusion of being free
Empty houses, Empty homes, empty streets, empty roads
Empty villages, Empty towns, Empty castles, with empty crowns
Empty faces, empty minds, hollow people, with empty lives
Empty promises, insatiable times, with empty policies, all hope dies

I said, "Francis, what's that hole in your hand?"
I said, "Francis, is that blood on your hands?"
Wide eyed you stare into space
Wide eyed you stare into space
Wide eyed you stare into space
Wide eyed you stare in the hell hole
I said, "Francis, what's with the entourage?
All those people rolled into one
All those people succumbed by one"
Wide eyed you stare into space
All that burden in one place
He said, "do you know my name,
He already knew, that you knew
do ya", know my name", do ya"?
Lucifer, lucifer
Lucifer, lucifer
Goin' down the tubes, goin' down the flush
waiting for so long, waiting for too long
Join me!

Echoes In The Night

Beasts of, a degenerate clan
Spearheaded by, a vicious man
Incest was rife, his family thrived
In the darkness, strangers died
KILL, AT NIGHT
FEAST, BY MOONLIGHT
From time to time, discarded body parts
Washed up on beaches, mainly after dark
KILL, AT NIGHT
FEAST, BY MOONLIGHT
More and more went missing, after dusk in the night
Blame fell on those, who last saw them alive,
More and more went missing, locals stayed indoors at night,
Body parts washed up on the beach, rotting in the cold dawn light,
KILL, AT NIGHT
FEAST, BY MOONLIGHT
In response, to night time raids, villagers searched, in coastline caves,
One dark night, a soldier proclaimed, he'd found a cave, of human remains,
Their macabre den had been revealed, cannibal acts at last revealed.
The scene of many, murderous acts, clan captured, finally trapped.
One of the daughters, fled and ran, but soon was caught and promptly hanged
The rest executed/burned alive, will never repeat this frightful crime

It Crawls Inside Me
02:58

Take a scorpion, or a poisonous spider.
Impale it and let it dry.
Pound it up into powder and sprinkle it on the intended victim's food.
In time, live scorpions will grow in the body, and not only will they cause discomfort by their very presence, but they also will secrete their poisonous venom into the victims veins.
It crawls inside me.
living things, feasting on my live flesh.
It crawls inside me.
living things, feasting on my live flesh.
Get some tapeworms put them inside a fish.
Fry the fish and serve it to the victim.
In three days, the victim's intestines will be rife with worms.
It crawls inside me.
living things, feasting on my live flesh.
Get two creatures, usually spiders or snails.
Kill one put them both in a jar.
Leave them undisturbed.
Eventually the live animal will eat the dead animal.
Then, kill the live animal and dry it over a flame.
Powder it up and feed it to the intended victim.
In nine days live creatures infest the body.

Splintered Mind

thoughts are throbbing, thru my head
why can't I be, normal instead
what's the point, I can't say
why i do this, every day
am i normal, are you normal
what is normal, I don't know
am i normal, are you normal
what is normal, I don't know
thoughts are churning, in my head
why can't I be, normal instead
some are really, freakish and odd
about the world, people playing god
paradoxical, conflicting truths
is it all lies, on the TV news?
shown to distract, from the truth
not to inflame, but rather sooth
am i normal, are you normal
what is normal, I don't know
am i normal, are you normal
what is normal, I don't know
thoughts are churning, in my head
not today, I'll stay in bed
-----------------------
-----------------------
Look in the mirror, what do I see
many faces, looking back at me
i don't mean to cause offense,
all my nonsense, makes no sense

Heading into the darkness, from our shining light
Will our achievements slump into decline?
This speed of progress; can it maintained?
In times past, we've stagnated and decayed,
Western self obsession keeps us blind.
We think we’ve realised our full potential.
Most of the people that you meet,
Are now at their least resourceful ever
When compared to any time in human history.
We have lost touch with our roots,
Let’s hope that we don’t regret this.
Democracy supports progress,
we rely on our technology,
One day we’ll return to simpler lives,
Autokarkical ways are lost from western minds,
We’ve become a much too specialist a group
We can only thrive when confined to our rooms
Western self obsession keeps us blind.
We think we’ve realised our full potential.
Most of the people that you meet,
Are now at their least resourceful ever
When compared to any time in human history.
We’ve lost touch with our roots,
Let’s hope that we don’t regret this.
There’s no way that the volume of people,
Could cope with a western decline
If it came right down to it
It’s unlikely that you’d survive.
