Nightfall instrumental 4. Mask of Malice Demon god-enthrone the rat Empower the great slut Sacrament of bewilderment Rites of deprivation-broken mirror Guilt of the slave-serve, serve as you bleed Serve as you bleed Look behind the mask of malice See the grimace of viciousness Rip apart the mask of malice To face the truth-can be so hard Pass the deep dark hallway Into another bitter night Unwilling to turn the other way Scared of the voice within Pure poison all the lies Nightfall, nightfall of the soul Look behind the mask of malice See the grimace of viciousness Rip apart the mask of malice To face the truth-can be so hard See the bloodlines-writings on the wall Foretold-the end of it all Look behind the mask of malice See the grimace of viciousness Rip apart the mask of malice To face the truth-can be so hard Shine down-silver is the light Estranged from myself-promise me nothing All has to fail-all has to fade Rip apart the mask of malice Rip apart the mask of malice 5. ... And Out Come the Wolves We are all we are-a horde-a pack We are chained-death in our eyes A force that cannot be tamed Out of control-yet so cold Trained to kill on a silent night Show your teeth and smell the fear Out come the wolves A damned division Death to all traitors Outcome the wolves For victory we strike Our will is our testament Try us-weak as your are Somewhere caught between the lines Right or wrong True or false-good and The instinct for extinction Out come the wolves A damned division Death to all traitors Outcome the wolves For victory we strike Our will is our testament The scent of fresh blood Fills the midnight air No place left to hide Now, lead us to war Hear us scream We call for you 6.

Hades Resurrected Dominion - evil pure - redefined The sulphur throne empowered by the beast Armed to the teeth - the troops of gomorrah March into the rising storm Winds of blackness - beholder of the dead Bark the curse into the night I-i am forever - praised art thou-thy will I-i am forever - praised art thou-thy name Hades melas-hades pelorios-hades aldelos I am the one Hades phonios-hades krateros-in all eternity Disembodied screams predict the arrival The black goddess will rise Armageddon - ominous are your ways Calamity will reign I-i am forever-praised art thou-thy name I-i am forever - praised art thou-thy will Hades melas-hades pelorios-hades aidelos I am the one Hades phonios-hades krateros-in all eternity Lay siege to the temple The cult has to die Extinguish the holy flame And let ashes rain-let ashes rain The troops of gomorrah March into the rising storm The black goddess will rise I-i am forever-praised art thou-thy name I-i am forever-praised art thou-thy will Hades melas-hades pelorios-hades aidelos I am the one Hades phonios-hades krateros-in all eternit 8. The Devil Grins Drowning - swallow the sun In this solitude of this cold embrace Laughter wakes me - makes my skin crawl Endless, worthless - fear takes over The shades are down - stuck here again Silence won't last - panic and sorrow The high is gone-i am alone The devil grins-my demons salute mm Hall to addiction-i hear them whisper Bury the treasures - bury them deep Of what once was - that will never be Scar the face - rip off the spit Dim the lights - for my time has come I fail again The devil grins-my demons salute him Hall to addiction-i hear them whisper More is enough - forever this night Damn the dream a my flag is black Inhale - the fire of temptation Silence screams within my despair Yet there is no answer Waiting for the dawn Exhale - the wisdom of distinction Gone with the first rays of light Gone with the first rays of light The devil grins-my demons salute him Hall to addiction - i hear them whisper The devil grins-and i smile back Hall to addiction-hall to isolation 9. La Serpenta Canta The path once known now forgotten Vanished before our eyes I seek-i will never find the astral door The gateway to extinction Last in the eternal void-of nothingness and sorrow My friend-we shall resist-resist to exist Forever and a day La serpenta canta Songs of loss and grief La serpenta canta Songs of rage and fear Crawl in the cave-light failed to exist We breed in holes and pools of blood Corona diabola-corona eternal I bend my knee and lay this burden down Junk of minds descending into bleakness We are nothing-for all there is the final vow Broken the shell-i remain in destain... My truth is set free-by those words i believe... My friend-we shall resist-resist to exist Forever and a day La serpenta canta Songs of loss and grief La serpenta canta Songs of rage and fear La serpenta canta ...shriek of the diabolical siren La serpenta canta And so on 10. The Loss Wasted youth Childhood like a painful trauma Ignorance in every act Don't feel a don't ask Lies heard in every word A loss you cannot bear Closed eyes tell the truth The border is in sight Days like endless nights All lined up before my eyes Believe in lies Abuse of faith and hope Till you cannot trust anymore You paid your dues Long ago-too far away A loss you cannot bear Closed eyes tell the truth The border is in sigh Days like endless nights All lined up before my eyes I still don't believe I remember every word Time heals nothing Days like endless nights All lined up before my eyes Every fucking night-a lifetime lost The future's sealed-by empty hands Every fucking night-a lifetime lost I remember every word Some wounds will never heal Scars won't tell the truth
