Call of the Wild
1. Violence Is Golden
Jaws snap!
Driving onward with relentless will
Run down, exhaust the herd for the final kill
The spirit of predation
The strength of the wolf is in the pack that moves as one
Howling wild with elation bound we are strong
Gather round your weakest ones
Wall of horns against their fate
Violence is the highest law
And from this fact there’s no escape
(In) fallen age this wall of horns
Protects the feeble form the strong
Built from laws and forged from lies
It cannot hold for long
Violence – is golden
(Cleanse the world in river of blood)
Violence – is golden
(Drowning all nations in hot, holy blood)
The wrath of the outlaw
The threat and the danger
No good can come of your hope
There’s always hate
And what of the others
Those who deceive
And those who would forsake their lives
A fatal mistake
ARISE, TO SEE, THE WORLD
SO BREAK OUT THE DRINKS, THERE’S GONNA BE SLAUGHTER
THE VANDALS THE HUNS AND THE WOLVES ARE BREAKING THEIR CHAINS
THE IRON IS COLD, THE URGE IS PRIMEVAL
THERE WILL BE BLOOD ON MY HANDS, VIOLENCE OUR FAITH
2. Stone by Stone
Self-flagellation
Empty platitudes
Death of a thousand cuts
Hack their way through you
Changing guard
New division
Empire rise
On malediction
A 1000 pious candles
Born by barren wombs
Coward Unter-ratten
Consecrate their tombs
Changing guard
A new division – no submission
Empire rise
On malediction
As dawn chases night
time rusts their throne
Yet new kingdoms rise
Stone by stone
As night follows day
All must lose their throne
Yet new kingdoms rise
Stone by stone
Over time the veil it does burn
If glorious death were my only concern
Plague of fire is my morbid vision
Stone by stone to extinction
Profane is the crime
Tragic is the loss
Neurotic altruism
I deny the new religion
Over time the veil it does burn
If only death were my only concern
I see fires in my great vision
Stone by stone to extinction
New dark age or extinction
So let’s build a new world
Upon the ashes of the old
We will see our kingdom rise
Stone by stone
3. Call of the Wild
A howl in the night, your skin is crawling
Can’t help yourself, the wildness is calling
Under the trance and the spell of the night
A yearning for freedom that comes
When you learn how to fight
Learning to summon relinquish control
Yearning desire consumes your soul
Relish the pain, blood rings you pride
Knuckles split red and you’ve never felt so alive
The call of the wild in the black
The silence that warns of attack
Learning to let loose far from the world
Burning till midnight to wolf you’ll turn
Forcing yourself in dark flame
It’s a sacrifice to the call of the wild
Learning to let loose far from the world
raging in fires of passion you burn
Forging yourself in dark flame
It’s a sacrifice to the call of the wild
Raging like wildfire hunting for prey
Deep in the valley below
Reaping like whirlwinds into the prey
A gift of death they bestow
That night is gone, but alive in your heart
Memories of that night threaten to tear you apart
Taking the long road, hitching with drifters
Riding at midnight like a shapeshifter
4. Trialed by Fire
So has my truth been tested by time
Reckoned by age, trialed by fire?
Was there wisdom in what I believed
Or was it ghosts by whom I was deceived?
The world has now taught me many things
And one I’ll pass onto you
The world that we are looking for,
Well it isn’t coming soon
Dreamers of utopia, delusions and visions
Lay down your arms, repent decision
For the dead and idealists, nothing but liars
This is our trial by fire
Better to repeat just one truth,
Than to scream a thousand lies
For a life without honour is no life at all
(It’s) better to have nothing
Than the promise of fool’s gold
So what have I found on this trail,
Free spirits of lost souls?
The brave, the broken, the ghosts of desolation
Though silent, still they are heard
Reckoned by age, trialed by fire
I climbed one mountainside, to find yet another
An eternity of darkness for us yet to uncover
And my soul pines for rest
In the heat of the flame I desire
