1.	Elegy of the Moribund 02:01		buy track
2.	The Last Empire 08:20	lyrics	buy track
Written in the ancient scripts Prophetic day of demise Released complete destruction Nothing ever spared aside Withering light of Monarchy’s decay Atrocities committed Payed in death Saw burning hell Havoc is left Torn away (away) The last empire Torn away (away) Defeat proclaimed Behold! The time has come! Nothing shall be undone! There is no mercy For all this scum Thunders roar Heavy rain falls The anger darkens Forever more Hunted dark curse No way to reverse Withering light of Monarchy’s decay Atrocities committed Payed in death The sacred blade Gods forged in the skies All forces clash Evoking five elements Years of hunger Shall be on wait Raindrops cry red The emperor is dead
3.	Shrine of Sins 04:15	lyrics	buy track
Church of misery In dying apology Locked in prison Shut from reality There is no faith To follow tomorrow Shrine of sins Blasting through the gates Filled with Horrific hate Leaving The poor to rot Not holding back Sick of it all Long forgotten Astray Among the rest Just to stay cold Just to stay dead Kill them all The king In his castle Warriors fight Instead Empty lies Based on belief Shrine of sins Sorrow in death turned to grief Deceiving eyes in wicked schemes Ready for the great betrayal Freedom to men has been denied Religion tames mindless mortals Under the gaze of symbols Let us hear a nefarious mass Worshiping the goat on fire Temples destroyed Burned to none Dark priests of evil With their Obscure ways Shrine of sins Turning men Into sheep For the sake Of corruption Infernal desires begun Revolution begins Few walk the unholy path Atheist Philosophy neglected Truth Has been objected Ignorance is bliss Beggars Have to burn Forbidden To breath All we gave Has been lost Shrine of Sins
4.	Carving Genocide 04:03	lyrics	buy track
Silver kingdom At downfall Empty ways To nowhere Human crimes unforgiven Deserve no absolvation All exiles have begone Overdose of weaponry Foresees abominant Killing spree The beast is present Famine for carnificine Within our wars We rest in pieces Violence is the only answer The ultimate sacrifice We all are victims Of this insane War against all humanity War against all life Final bastion Of our kind Fallen cemetery crows Growl chants of necrosis Carving genocide! The final revolution Carving genocide! The only resolution Carving genocide! From here stand no survivors Carving genocide! A sick world near extinction Soulless bodies Left to rot Limbs spread everywhere Impaled heads left for dead The wind is Blowing strong As leaves fly over tied legs Crushed to the bone The crows laying With their wings spread As angels nightmares Descent straight from hell The murder weapon Of genocide Tyranny carved in their flesh Apocalipse set in stone
5.	Demise of the Forgotten 07:29	lyrics	buy track
A time for displeasure Taking shallow steps Grasp the emotion Take me now I’ve been through so many Discovered horizons Crafting the lifeline I acknowledge my fate A river of solitude A wave of sadness In these lost moments Standing by my side When sadness whispers Grief stops my demise The last picture portrait Is a mere illusion As I feel the cold touch Of vanishing despair I know my time has came I acknowledge my fate As death touches the skin My pale emotions Bring one last gulf Of this dawning misery A fortress of pain, my life Buried underneath the cross My soul expelled from the body Oh death thank you for freeing me Blood stops running Through my veins A dying body A soul left behind Life’s last grasp My fainting light Excruciating agony Moments of departure I seek my way Into fallen oblivion There is no beauty Besides this pain The sky turns grey And forgiveness lost A dying body A soul let alone
6.	When Death Comes Grieving 10:47	lyrics	buy track
When death comes grieving The fall of the damned arises Comes the epilogue of departure When all hope has been lost Bringer of the underworld Have mercy for the lying bodies Hear the prayers of their old fathers Save the spirits that have been lost Why waste the gift of life I haven’t meant to take you Take my hand I will take you to Your final resting place Take my hand I am the one You cannot run from I fear there’s nothing I can do The damage done Does not return Rising from the crates Wielding a damned scythe Condemning every man To eternal emptiness Fighting a half lost battle Riding a half dead horse Waging tremendous disasters Souls return to their dark masters
7.	Lugubrious Silence 04:21	lyrics	buy track
Lost in a limbo between two worlds I grieve the ones I´ve lost forever This aching heart of mine Lost its pace hours ago Alone in the dark Oblivious in my deviations Missing the trail of life Strayed in perdition Granted the eternal banishment Vanishing remembrances dissipate Swiftly gone with the wind Whispering through the cold air For my lugubrious silence Cannot hide my pain Under mournful stance I bear this doleful state My sight sees only grey Existence runs without color Meaningless way of being Haze took the leverage Nature is rotten Inside a mad world Isolated throne Without resolve The end of the funeral The chalice has been drank The terminus of this new world Outlined in our obscure marks One single day Would change it all Lacking strength to overcome Such striking adversity So many hurdles We’ve came across All of us turn wicked To dust we turn again My sight sees only grey Existence runs without color Meaningless way of being Haze took the leverage
8.	Windless Winter 05:31	lyrics	buy track
Footsteps printed in the snow Echoes of the fading sun Frozen gates stood barely shut Iced desert revealed Into the world of the unknown Imagination starts to crumble Silent enclosure of a shadow Bent forgotten lives Glorious return of darkness Sinners perished again The gods complete their task Fulfilling their prophecy at last The trumpets sound As the final call echoes Where will you be When this darkness calls? Feelings of emptiness Invade the senseless A miserable blood stain Thy real pain Hollow like a windless winter Sustained screams from the stones Echoes inside a dark sphere Calling their master Struggle for survival Innocent lives violently taken Not relevant for the matter This cynical disaster From the rising shadows Of an ancient ritual Stone turns to blood And blood turns to nightfall When once ruled an emperor Now stands the omen Decayed throne of monarchy Now pentagram's ruling
9.	The Omen 07:42	lyrics	buy track
Children of the night Follower of the pentagram Apprentice of the goat Leader of the crows Seed of evil Sprouts in our own hands Vicious psychopath Plants in us his disease Sequence of sixes Son of the devil Ultimate revelation Terminator of creation Altered beast arises Enraged serpent strikes In blasphemous moment Upon the cross an omen Only hatred spared As the bones become ashes Once again turned to dust Through the tides of time Leading our own fall Demise of the forgotten Propagate the terror Dawn breaking once more Result of the ultimate sacrifice New millennium at war Evoked by perdition Kneeling for redemption Last merging of fates The end of the world
