ATROCITY LYRICS

1. Intro

2. Scorching Breath

[music: T. Bauer / lyrics: A. Krull]

flames of fire destroying the world's illusion
your own created nightmare stabs you to death
listen to your hypocrisy, your everlasting false belief
holy ground, a holy grave
divine fate by divine grace

deathly pallor
funeral cortege
mass extermination
the scorching breath
greedy death mask
greeping barrage
deadly termination
the scorching breath

war-demons, demolition
deep, down from the infernal regions
your dreams of dread
will take you soon to the dead

deathly pallor
funeral cortege
mass extermination
the scorching breath
greedy death mask
greeping barrage
deadly termination
the scorching breath

from pride to the fall - the way is very short
the scorching breath takes the world apart

deathly pallor
funeral cortege
mass extermination
the scorching breath
greedy death mask
greeping barrage
deadly termination
the scorching breath

naked skeletons piled up like stacked wood
iced sea of depression numbed with cold and fear
awaiting fatal destiny, with disillusioned disbelief
holy ground, a holy grave
divine fate by divine grace

war-demons, demolition
deep, down from the infernal regions
your dreams of dread
will take you soon to the dead

deathly pallor
funeral cortege
mass extermination
the scorching breath
greedy death mask
greeping barrage
deadly termination
the scorching breath

3. Deliverance

[music: T. Bauer, M. Roderer, M. Schwarz / lyrics: A. Krull]

frozen minded out of the ashes
see my face in the dust

manic structures, human madness
apocalyptic trance

the battle rages from day to day
endless night begins
darkened landscape, left behind
saturated with blood

all life is lost - in misery
upon the earth - storm rages on
into nothingness - crimson rain covers the earth
impure mankind - perished in pain but still raising the dead

wasted genius and wasted land
how great was your gain?
the answer is: self-importance
never ask for forgiveness

all life is lost - in misery
no one cares - when the reaper laughts:
"into my world - i guide your life to eternity
sorrow and sadness - pain is the law
and love is the crime"

deliverance!

depth of terror, depth of horror
lost edeen pays its' price
perveyor of distress, from the abyss
thy willl be done!
impure mankind - the lost chapter is over now!
into nothingness - nothing is gained, nothing is earned!

deliverance!
"come to my world!"
deliverance! ...from mankind!

the battle of the masses
rages day and night
earth reduced to ashes
the fire that burned the eyes
"and i was a new heaven,
i saw a new earth"
this place won't be given
for a second impure birth

deliverance!
"come to my world"
deliverance! ...from mankind!

[lead: T. Bauer]

4. Blood-stained Prophecy

[music: M. Roderer, T. Bauer / lyrics: A. Krull]

Refering to an old book
one thousand words - one lie
lost in self-adulation
your self-regarded mind

narrow minded visions
spread like poison through the world
posing as the awaited saviour
the last supper prepared

blood-stained prophecy

a lifeless son is your idol
your act of grace is death
canturies of forced conversion
word of god declined

your tonguees speak about mercy
but your prophecy is pain
narcissim and divine benediction
won't save you from ordeal
blood-stained prophecy

[lead: T. Bauer, M. Roderer]

5. Love Is Dead

[music: T. Bauer, M. Roderer / lyrics: A. Krull]

i feel a cold breath of wind
black sky in mourning-veil
i see no worth-living reason
oh no,
it's driving me insane
pangs of love
never thought i would feel this way
i see your face in every cloud
and i say to myself
don't let me, lete me fade away

love is dead

i walk through desert fields
black ravens surrounding me
i have no more jest for life
no more,
i'm bleeding from inside
a once opened heart
never thought i would feel this way
i search for any reason or cause
which i could never find
so i blame myself for things i don't understand

love is dead

all my life is pain
drowned in tears
never thought i would feel this way
everyday i die once more
my heart turns black
never again safe and warm

love is dead

[lead: T. Bauer, M. Rodere]

6. We Are Degeneration

[music: M. Schwarz, M. Roderer / lyrics: A. Krull]

degenerate!

we ar degeneration

your downfall is our aim
we suck your brain
we brind you pain
we are desperation
leading your son to slaughter
common grave diggers
mass-murderers, fellow travellers
a selfdestructive point of view
we drink your blood
we eat your heart

we are degeneration

we are transfiguration
this planet won't survive
decadent morality
malicious insanity, beneath dignity
a selfdestructive point of view
we suck your brain
we bring you pain

we are degeneration

[lead: M. Roderer, T. Bauer]

8. For Ever And A Day

[music: M. Roderer, T. Bauer / lyrics: A. Krull]

i'm watching the moon-set
walking through the woods
tasting depth of winter
morbidity and doom

i saw one million faces
i saw one million deaths
colours are in dark-grey
veil of emptiness

stalking in a nightmare
i was lost long ago
i gave all my love
spirit's feeling low

sorrow - i'm dead-tired, tired of life
eternal dusk my dungeon and desire

shadows - dark face in autumnal tints
covering me, lost in immortality

crossing the old bridgeg
like one thousand times before
sadness, autumnal equinox
sunbeams - nevermore

soulful - my heart is bleeding, my soul is seeking
for salvation and release
soulless - no more longing, no more loving
just the ashes of my thoughts

for ever and a day
death is the salvation
for ever and a day
life is the damnation
for ever and a day
ghosts are hunting me
for ever and a day
death is the salvation

stamping underwood down
plot revenge that kills
leaving life behind
sowing death and thrills

i saw one million faces
i saw one millions deaths
colours are in dark-grey
veil of emptiness

sorrow - i'm dead-tired, tired of life
eternal dusk my dungeon and desire

shadows - dark face in autumnal tints
covering me, lost in immortality

for ever and a day
death is the salvation
for ever and a day
life is the damnation
for ever and a day
ghosts are running free
for ever and a day
death is the salvation

sorrow in shadows
soulful but soulless
throughout time and space
misantrophic race
manhunting, echoing pain
endless night starts again

for ever and a day
death is the salvation
for ever and a day
life is the damnation
for ever and a day
ghosts are hunting me
for ever and a day
death is the salvation...

[lead: M. Roderer, T. Bauer]

9. Seal Of Secrecy

[music: M. Roderer / lyrics: A. Krull]

a deep grey nursery
creche a poor and dirty cage
dreams of wonderland
will never come true in this world

born into this misery
never knowing any reason why
cowering on the dirty floor
bed-ridden, beaten - every day

...under the seal of secrecy

eyes full of pain
belonging to the weaker sex
staring into space
so many years of hopelessness

in prison without any guilt
the children of no home and love
and they sing:
nursery rhymes out of their mind
without sense - sad cries for help

...under the seal of secrecy

growing into apathy
enduring every use of force
body like a numb limb
without ache - but soul is still alive

...under the seal of secrecy

[lead: T. Bauer]

10. Down Below

[music: M. Roderer / lyrics: A. Krull]

here, now and then
sin and hate
shall dominate
i have seen the fall of man
wages of sin
is death

in the still of evening
night frost on the eaerth
seven continents are bleeding
seven seas in red

posterity will never find
rapture or peace of mind
goddess of luck, bearer of glad
buried by mankind

down, down below
there is no love
at death's door

with life, life of sin
we have been
blessed and doomed

the nightfall of humanity
together we obtain
loosing sensibility
reaching death's domain

fiery temper growing strong
engender fiendishness
graven image taken wrong
trying to surpass

eclipse of the moon
down below
phantasmagoric creation
down below

down, down below
there is no love
at death's door

sun will never rise
only darkness beholds the eyes

irruption of spitefulness
celebrated chaos
deep beyong there are no rules
survival of the fittest

in the still of night
world torn to shreds
seven continents are gone
seven sease are dead

eclipse of the moon
down below
phantasmagoric creation
down below

...down on earth!

[lead: T. Bauer, M. Roderer]

11. The Hunt

[music: M. Roderer / lyrics: A. Krull]

sinful i have taken life by life
mortality a gift you have to make
blood and sweat is the nourishment
bloody victim the hunt is your painful eend

nervously your skin is turning wet
merciless i stab you in the back
steel of sword is reaching tender flesh
lustfully i cut your hear from neck

panic, butcher
bleeding for my need

never enter my hunting-ground
`cause i get you and i smash you down
i cut you, slash you till your death
i slice your heart and steal your breath

the hunt is on!
manhunt is on!

i slaughter you, i slice your throat apart
i punish you, your neverreesting soul
gruesome, black and obscure night
entirely i have given death's delight

panic, butcher
bleeding for my need

you and me - the chosen ones

the hunt is on!
