SONG LYRICS & CHORDS

New blood joins this Earth and quickly he’s subdued / Through constant pain disgrace, the young boy learns their rules / With time the child draws in, this whipping boy done wrong...

You have returned to the torture-chambers / To find peace among the rotting corpses / You have returned to the execution place...

Daylight has finally reached it's end / As evenfall strikes into the sky / Far away in the dark glimpsing moonlight...

The battle raged on and on / Fuelled by the venom of hatred for man / Consistently, without the eyes to see...

Reis deg opp / La oss bestride / Den tanke fra vår lend...

Minnenes ekko stiller timen / Kneblet i tungsinnets lenker faller jeg ifra / Ikke lenger vil jeg være boltet fast i vemodighetens anker...

Oh, look at those lifeless leaves / All their precious pride is taken away / A lost creation for a graven image...

Illness and plagues, torture and blight / Is what she brings / Mocking holy standards, deceiving feeble fools...

My decent is the story of everyman / I am hatred, darkness and despair / My decent is the story of everyman...

Hence I will anoint / And whisper wholeheartedly / The creed of Hades and beyond...

Passenger on confessional course / Unlock with the key you behold within / Repair the shadow of your mind...

Wash your back so you won’t stab mine / Get in bed with your own kind / Live your life so you don’t see mine...

Been here before, been here before, been here before, been here before / Been here before, been here before / Been here before couldn’t say I liked it where do I start writing all this down...

I see my reflection in the window / It looks different, so different than what you see / Projecting judgement on the world...

These are the eyes that can’t see me / These are the hands that drop your trust / These are the boots that kick you ‘round...

In the name of desperation / In the name of wretched pain / In the name of all creation...

Sound is ripping through your ears, the deafening sound of metal nears / Bodies waiting for his whips, the taste of leather on your lips / Hear the cry of War louder than before...

Slaves! Hebrews born to serve to the pharaoh / Heed! To his every word, live in fear / Faith! Of the unknown one, the deliverer...

Blacked out / Pop queen, amphetamine / The screams crashed into silence...

Hey! I’m your life, I’m the one who takes you there / Hey! I’m your life, I’m the one who cares / They! They betray, I’m your only true friend now...

I can’t remember anything, can’t tell if this is true or dream / Deep down inside I feel to scream, this terrible silence stops me / Now that the war is through with me, I’m waking up I cannot see...

End of passion play, crumbling away / I’m your source of self-destruction / Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear...

Come unto me and you will feel perfection / Come unto me and dedicate / Come unto me, you'll never feel rejection...

So close no matter how far / Couldn’t be much more from the heart / Forever trusting who we are...

Say your prayers, little one, don’t forget, my son, to include everyone / I tuck you in, warm within, keep you free from sin till the sandman he comes / Sleep with one eye open...

Bitterness and burden / Curses rest on thee / Solitaire and sorrow...

Alright! / Scanning the scene in the city tonight / We’re looking for you to start up a fight...

Guilty as charged but damn it, it ain’t right / There’s someone else controlling me / Death in the air, strapped in the electric chair...

New blood joins this Earth and quickly he’s subdued / Through constant pain disgrace, the young boy learns their rules / With time the child draws in, this whipping boy done wrong...

When darkness falls, may it be / That we should see the light / When reaper calls, may it be...
