Upon Azrael's Wings Riding on the flames of death Into this last night fear relents As we race through skies upon Azrael's wings He has com to set us free from this earthbound misery Father of macabre you possess the key To heavens black galactic morgue Chosen few seek your reward In solitude, perpetual silence Cosmic womb, eternal solace Embracing cosmic mysteries To worlds below he's sent a wreath Elated black angel; our requiem he sings As tears of Nebula fill black holes Drowning galaxies of lost souls We continue our ascent to heavens low No turning back from galactic morgue Chosen few find your reward In solitude, perpetual silence Cosmic womb, eternal solace Colossal grave of shadows, extinction of mankind Eternal morgue or sorrows, no beauty left behind Void of shadows, man's colossal grave Ball of ash to zero fades Nothing left to mourn, all has died, ever born Barren voyage static drone Stark oblivion reigns so cold Dropped out of existence, we've found our home In heaven's black galactic morgue Chosen few have found our reward In solitude, perpetual silence Cosmic womb, eternal solace 5. Corpsecycle Living dead of London town Flesh vessels underground Mourning suits, burial gowns 9-5's doleful sound Pallid faces office bound Mortuary all year round Corpse Cycle is life's circle Life's circle is corpse cycle Life is passing away Society eats your mind away Walking corpses, vacant slaves Banking rottenness, decay Saving cash for early graves Utopia is coffin shaped Wealth hungry drugged rats chase Empty dreams of a better place Corpse Cycle is life's circle Life's circle is corpse cycle Life is passing away Society eats your mind away Truths fading farther day by day, to material enslave Die with the world as you awake, in the rat race you rotate Degenerations zombified Oblivious in the tombstone line Corpses fucking their way through time Corpse Cycle is life's circle Life's circle is corpse cycle Life is passing away Society eats your mind away Life has passed you away, flesh turned to grey Society ate your mind away 6. Fields Of Zagara [instrumental] 7. Oro The Manslayer Under the war-torn sodden skies Bleeding axes anguished lies Fight upon an earth that died Raped by corporate scythe Streets are red, Sun turned to grey Nature's beauty has decayed Swans lay dead on empty lakes Love oh man - Forsakes Fear his wrath as mans blood flows Innocence now no-one knows Rites of virtue we've disposed Heaven's doors solemnly closed Cities crumbled to the ground Deformed crosses mark the land Carnage lingers all around No refuge for the damned [Chorus:] Eyes of death, look upon this earth Destroyed by mankind's curse Retribution, mutilation, desecrate, avenge Oppressive tyrants to him fall One by one he reaps their soul Tearing death from their control Elated by the rising toll Slaying masters and their laws Who destroyed our world with force Oro gives unto the poor swords To join him in this war [Chorus] Battlefield of charnel air Land, sea, earth now laid bare Morgue of solitude we share Shown no mercy for our prayers Laying down his bloody sword Oro leaves us our reward Silent vacuum, endless floor - Gone forever more [Chorus] 8. Beneath A Funeral Sun Ghost of war smiling - damnation is nigh Humanly abandoned - atrocity is rife Moral desolation - future in decline Final devastation - We shall pay the price Funeral sun devoid of fire Hangs above our burning pyre Earth is falling - mother please Save our sinners - father please Plastic churches melting - fanatics get high On flames of Armageddon - God didn't lie Fatal acts towards man's extinction Form the scythe in his reflection Earth is falling - mother please Save our sinners - father please Haunting silence desolate gloom Spectral vision of planets doomed Star shaped crucifixes, cosmic tomb Tranquil void awaits us soon Black drapes overhanging - a vulture's paradise World leaders celebrating - wargasmic genocide Undertakers laughing - at cost of sacrifice Ghost of man is fading no signs of afterlife Funeral sun devoid of fire Hangs above our burning pyre Earth has fallen, no more pleas Mankind's burning - spectre flees 9.
