Stalker 02:49
Watch you through the shadows of the day Just so there can be no mistake Can you feel my presence nearing; will you try to stop believing? You are illicit evil pray Grab you from behind I attack Knock you to the ground on your back. I am the endless nightmare I stand here behind you. Nothing left for you but vows and prayers I know what you seek, you try to make believe I know what you crave, to be alive this day I know what you want, your love to tease and taunt I know what I am, I am the stalker Slice you; dice you now you are betrayed. Nothing more to carve on your grave. You've been left behind, tortured for no crime. Nothing left but your own demise

Hypnotise 04:28
Stand upon my stage, look into the crowd. I shout come up, so volunteer now. Hypnotise, feel my gaze. Now your mine, no escape. Swing the old trinket, Catch them in my spell. Like smoke I vanish, to where I shall not tell. Hypnotise, feel my gaze. Now your mine, no escape. Welcome to the horror chamber You’ll be here for life. Follow order to the letter. Or you’ll feel the knife. Welcome to the horror chamber Welcome to your hell. Salvation is your saviour, In your eternal cell. Hypnotise, feel my gaze. Now your mine, no escape. Back in another town. I crack a wicked smile. Never to be caught. I’ve never be caught yet. Hypnotise, feel my gaze. Now your mine, no escape. Hypnotise, feel my gaze. Now your mine, no escape. No escape

The Lycan 04:39
As The Full Moon Rises I Can Feel My Body Changing Through The Darkest Hour Feel My Body Seperating As The Change Takes Place Again Feel My Body Become Divine No One Knows What I Will Be Do You Know? Do You See? And I Feel The Change Within Me Now The Night Is Finally Here And My Head Is Finally Clear I Seek Violence Til I Sleep For the Beast Within Howl, As You’re Running Through The Night And There’s No Place Else To Hide Having The Wind Tear Through My Spine Dark, With My Predatory Eyes I Prepare For Your Demise I Am The Lycan, I Will End You During My Time As The Beast Hunger Forever Is The Master Slaying Then Becomes The Fun No One Escapes Me In My Stride As The Sun Light Comes To Peak I Escape Into Myself Always Seen By None Now You Know, Now You Run And Again I Shall Become Him Now The Night Is Finally Here And My Head Is Finally Clear I Seek Violence Til I Sleep For the Beast Within Howl, As You’re Running Through The Night And There’s No Place Else To Hide Having The Wind Tear Through My Spine Dark, With My Predatory Eyes I Prepare For Your Demise I Am The Lycan, I Will End You Howl, As You’re Running Through The Night And There’s No Place Else To Hide Having The Wind Tear Through My Spine Dark, With My Predatory Eyes I Prepare For Your Demise I Am The Lycan, I Will End You

Quod scelestus vadum hereditas orbis terrarium (And the wicked shall inherit the earth) Terrarium Terrarium Terrarium Hidden in there dusty tombs, elitist plan the world renewed, Built on the dreams of tyrants and there archaic rule. Don’t you want to join the elite? Born to make there plans complete Plans complete Make peace with your destiny, Rites of passage; set me free. Monologues line your gullet, as you fuck around the minds of youth. McGonagall would be proud of your inane truths. Promising all, whilst on your throne Built on foundations of ivory stone Ivory Stone Make peace with your destiny, Rites of passage; set me free Manipulate all your hopes and dreams. Into his barbaric schemes Corrupt, Vitiosus (Corrupt) Corrupt, Vitiosus (Corrupt) Corrupt, Vitiosus (Corrupt) Corrupt, sheep to the flock Corrupt, Vitiosus (Corrupt) Corrupt, Vitiosus (Corrupt) Corrupt, Vitiosus (Corrupt) Corrupt, skulls for the throne Make peace with your destiny, Rites of passage; set me free Manipulate all your hopes and dreams. Into his barbaric schemes Bring forth the sacrifice; take her life like myths of old. Want and terror come as you reap her soul. Seeking visions through one blind eye. Whilst spreading false hope with sinister lies Sinister lies Make peace with your destiny, Rites of passage; set me free The ending comes ever near. Clawing at what you hold dear

Hear forgotten tales, long ago in time. Affront to nature is there crime. Seep to your mind, ritualistic dreams. To tear your reality at the seams Open your eyes, and realise this is the army of darkness Open your eyes, and realise this is the army of darkness Whispering to you, from their hidden realm Deliver everything to yourself While they scream and laugh, from their hidden shell Listen too much; and be damned to hell Open your eyes, and realise this is the army of darkness Open your eyes, and realise this is the army of darkness How can one man damn us all? Can’t you see the darkness, the darkness...? The darkness comes Heretical ideals, malice in there taunts. Purged with fire and shield they baulk. So you wipe the slate, yet they come again. To possess the wills of men Open your eyes, and realise this is the army of darkness Open your eyes, and realise this is the army of darkness Open your eyes, and realise this is the army of darkness Open your Heart, Join them from the start this is the army of darkness. Darkness Darkness Darkness Darkness

To The End 03:24
Release me from this my cage To ignite this subsiding rage Try to obtain which you could not All your dreams are dashed Try to mourn what you have lost Nothing comes to pass Don’t let it, don’t let it pass See the bloodshed in your eyes Don’t let it fade, don’t let it cease Let them hear your hate filled cries Time will pass and scars will heal But I’ll be here to the end To the end To the end To the end Now this rage I have obtained I will not keep this contained Feel the presence of another self Shackles ripped from your mind Tried to control by force of will Now it is released Don’t let it, don’t let it pass See the bloodshed in your eyes Don’t let it fade, don’t let it cease Let them hear your hate filled cries Time won't pass and scars won’t heal But I’ll be here to the end To the end To the end To the end

The Gates of Hades are open wide People screaming as the blood runs down their eyes The red hot shackles, melting my flesh Searing skin as the steal touches the bone The Gates of Hades are open once again. The path to the underworld, where demons drift and play No time for the broken hearts it’s the evil that they fear Hailing the dark prince on stony ground Lashing whips across the back of every bow The three headed dog, defends the gates Snarling, biting he rips the men apart The Gates of Hades are open once again. The path to the underworld, where demons drift and play No time for the broken hearts it’s the evil that they fear Protect us from the devil dog His teeth are gleaming white Defender of the gates of hell He’ll take your life tonight The Gates of Hades are open wide Virgins scream as the blood runs down there thighs The clouded sky, strikes lightning bolts Rising flames as the devil takes your soul Feel the pain as his hand rips from your bones Can’t you feel the rancid air spurt from your chest You’re in hell now as your heart beats once again The Gates of Hades are open once again. The path to the underworld, where demons drift and play No time for the broken hearts it’s the evil that they fear Protect us from the devil dog His teeth are gleaming white Defender of the gates of hell He’ll take your life tonight
