2. High On Hate

We are not your leaders
We are not your friends
We are thieves and cheaters
We live at the end

We don't want your loyalty
We reject your trust
We ignore your sympathy
We do what we must

Don't you want to die?
Don't you want to die?
If you see us coming, step aside
We are hellbound and high

Don't you want to die?
Don't you want to die?
If you see us coming, step aside
We are hellbound and high

Hate!

Still in control
Down in this hole
Still in control
Down in this
Down in this hole


3. Nightfall

This is the exit
I'm always lost below
Unwashed and callous
Between unholy waves
Eyes never close
Hands are black and cracked
I choose my poison
May not see me again

This is the answer
I'm living lost again
Rewind electric terror
Indulge our dying end
Drown down in ice
Just to keep my stomach full
Cursed to levitate
My spell is chemical

Nightfall
I'm cursed again
Nightfall
May it never end

Nightfall
I'm cursed again
Nightfall
May it never end

I am the wizard
I live in hell you know
You will never see me
But I exist below


4. No Funeral

Fucked up
Strung out
World without color
Details are vague
Blacked out
Done in
Never making contact
No more to exchange

Used up
Bled out
Born below the land
Returned to feast
Let down
Burned up
Face down in dirt
Lie again with beasts

Unknown to the eye
Pure and petrified
Laid unto the ground
Unburied yet unfound

Shot up
Gone down
Living in a trance
And with no others
Shut out
Locked in
From a chosen grave
Return to mother

Unknown to the eye
Pure and petrified
Laid unto the ground
Unburied yet unfound

I run to you
In rivers
I reach to you
From the soil


5. Then Fires

Something has awakened
Now we call to hell
Smoke from pits
Loves my lungs
Wanting to be punished
Now we fall to earth
Time to hide
And forget

Another night inside
Another day denied
The hunger to burn
Take the light away
We destroy the day
In darkness we burn

Something starts to flicker
Crawl inside your flame
Scald your skin
Lick you bare
Reaching out to sorrow
Leave your borrowed life
Live your pain
Love your stench

I always knew
There was nothing
Standing in my way
And no one knew
I was waiting
To take away the day

Another night inside
Another day denied
The hunger to burn
Take the light away
We destroy the day
In darkness we burn

I always knew
There was nothing
Standing in my way
And no one knew
I was waiting
To take away the day


6. Addicts

Death walks in my shadow
Always drawing close
Always here to offer
What haunts me the most
I look him in the eye
Hollowed out by lies

Make me see
Like before
All I want
Is more
Come with me
I want yours
All we need
Is more

I know lots of secrets
Some of them are true
Some of them are gospel
Sermons of abuse
From my point of view
I know more than you

Make me see
Like before
All I want
Is more
Come with me
I want yours
All we need
Is more


7. The End Is Eternal

I came that night
To purge life from me
I plunged the devils claw
Injected fear
You shivered that night
Something was crying
Then in the daylight
We didn't speak
I hold the answers
Now to detach
Now to sever
The unborn from you

Hunted down and taken out
All life's waste
Hidden down in the dirt
In small graves
Residues of our old faith
Gone to die
Left with pathetic dust
And your cries

Bury your sadness
Unchain your grief
The needles are in
The end is eternal

Some blood in the first months
Then just ghosts


8. Blood Trance Fusion

Night falls on these filthy streets
At dead ends, where we meet

Oh doctor
What have you got?

He reaches out a steady hand
In his palm is not my brand

"You can't find this anywhere
And I would know
This will take you anywhere
You dare to go"

Black pill staring up at me
I can't ignore
It's no longer up to me
As I crush and snort

Oh doctor
Give me the dose
Oh doctor
Blood from my nose

Flashes of light
Ready to fight
Into the night
Demons are taking control

Burning with lust
Covered in cuts
Sick in the guts
Poison has swallowed me whole

Plunging a knife
Twisting it twice
Taking a life
And wanting to do it again

Under a spell
Violent as well
Tripping to hell
Then three days later it ends


9. Ruined Life Continuum

Today I awaken
To an empty room
Here we find no love
As my storm gathers
I slept behind a mask
Lied into your heart
In time you'll get nothing
My new enemy

All the lies
Rising high
This has to end
But I can't tell you when
Take your time
Take all mine
Then one day
We may be safe again

Ruined I awaken
In illusion's tomb
And just for a moment
I remember you
You followed me too close
And pried me loose
Today I'm not me
Are you still right here?

All the lies
Rising high
This has to end
But I can't tell you when
Take your time
Take all mine
Then one day
We may be safe again


10. Every Last Drop

Over and over
Ruling my mind
A veil for depression
A fix for my eyes
Out of the city
Into the house
Up through my hallway
To force itself
To force itself down

Down in the night
It's taking me
Down in the night
It's keeping me
Down in the night
It's here with me
Down in the night
And I want it all

Older and older
Fooled more than twice
Used up my chances
Ruined my life
Never a reason
No one around
Nothing can stop me
From drinking it
From drinking it down

Down in the night
It's taking me
Down in the night
It's keeping me
Down in the night
It's here with me
Down in the night
And I want it all
