Everyone Is Dead We fought the light We fought the time Prepare yourself Bricks aimed at your head It’s up to us Which side to trust Prepare yourself Bricks aimed at your head Intimidate Still dominate Bring out the Dead Things aren’t what they used to be We fought the light We fought the time Prepare yourself Bullets aimed at your head It’s up to us Death line is crossed Prepare yourself Bullets aimed at your head Things aren’t what they used to be

The Cicada King Resurrection ends Transformation upon the enemy Wicked is my face Blackened eyes decayed in infamy What the hell have I become A cult of violence in my mind The system has beaten you down Blood on my hands I’m done I am the Cicada King Bow down defore me Death is my ecstasy I am forever I am the Cicada King Long live the king Hostile, Rejection Cut throat smile Elation to return to form Reveal identity Long live the king I am the king Long live the king I am forever

Wardogs 04:19
lyrics

Wardogs A thousand sons called to war for the land A thousand suns, blackened earth, blackened man Memories, bittersweet ‘til the end One by one, you will fall, return to land We are the damned We are the wardogs Unmarked graves infest the town, infest the land Corpses line the battlefield, reign of pain Suicide of the masses at the gate Search your mind, you will find there is no truth No lessons learnt The history of man Dies upon the blade Wardogs marchin’ on and on We are the war Create a dying plan Excuse yourself Wardogs marchin’ on and on We are the damned We are the wardogs Concrete jungle, shattered earth, a world in ruin Dust to dust, limb from limb, the power planned Suffer now, cut the throats, watch them crawl Martyrdom, straight to earth, straight to hell

Bestow The War 06:36
lyrics

Bestow The War Bestow the war upon me Like the plagues of sin we freed Centrepedes are marching on and on Like a holocaust of angels You’re dawning for the masses Pillars of death for all to see This is flawed, this is man, this is war Cutting throats Warring dogs Iron gods Break the lines Adorn me with these gifts Like the god you thought you knew I was wrong for all these years Blood upon these blades we fight We are ready for war Life is not yours to take Bestow the war upon me ‘cause the death frees me Bestow the war upon me Dying time is here!

AOW 04:41
lyrics
buy track
AOW Let it go, not a god, poison seed Trust yourself show the need Crippled pain, wisdom gains Clenched by chains, show it all never change You’re tempted now, she will show you how Lose yourself, judge yourself, no one else A young man, easy prey The rest go lead the way, lead away One last chance with you tonight One last dance forever Rise up Rise No sorrow for this world One last chance with you tonight One last Dance forever No sorrow for this world No soul for you tomorrow

Destroyed By The Sun 05:25
lyrics
buy track
Destroyed By The Sun A cold blooded killer, to pillage and plunder Indestructable, To ground all anger To move forward we weaken, he seemed sincere To battle the beast, who hates us all Bring it down The morning approaches, a self projection On the brink of death, it’s human form Exile formation, there is no bias Patient for victims, he hates us all Destroyed by the sun

Thorns 03:54
lyrics

Thorns One kill, inspired death One kill, execution Curse of war The Blessed dead Congregation of the damned Betrayal, you got it Murder, you got it Deceit, you got it Torn apart Shallow graves, rises up Show the dead, expose the truth Curse of war The Blessed dead Congregation of the damned

Arrival 04:12
lyrics
buy track
Arrival Fallen down, from the sky See the fallen come alive Opened eyes, opened mind Your religion, is a lie They’re comin’ to take me away Troubled times, troubled lives Makes the light seem so devine Escape with me, this life is cursed Run with me, this life is yours Never gonna take me away Falling skies, world demise Never thought I’d see this with my eyes Taking lives, moving dial Planet sets, life expired They’re comin’ to take me away Lost mind, lost thoughts Lost life with no cost No hope, no cause No serenity I’m taking this life Never gonna take me away
