1. Weight Of The World
shelter the continent
bury in ice
deny the obvious
forcing the way
forcing the weight of the world
grind away the axis
the cosmic will is churned
this one's for the old ones
forcing the way
forcing the weight of the world
into the coldest of nights
a storm of detestation
the ice is taking your life
you will go, never to know the way down
forcing the weight of the world
forcing us to new directions
into realms of unknown
rip apart old dimensions
oblivious to the cold
buired deep, long forgotten
in a tomb made of ice
i'll awake all the old gods
and watch the world fade away
into the coldest of nights
a storm of detestation
the ice is taking your life
you will go, never to know the way down
forcing the weight of the world
into the mountain of ice
a storm of detestation
the ice is taking your life
you will go, never to know the way down
forcing the weight of the world
shelter the continent
bury in ice
deny the obvious
forcing the way
forcing the weight of the world
2. Cross Contamination
total total fallacy
i am total heresy
spread plague, spread pestilence
old hands, cold testament
fuck
total total fallacy
i am total heresy
far gone, removed from its roots
cold, dead, hangin' from the noose
the cross remains
despite its congregation
falling prey to faith
cross contamination
spread plague, spread pestilence
old hands, cold testament
the cross remains
despite its congregation
falling prey to faith
cross contamination
total total fallacy
i am total heresy
spread plague, spread pestilence
old hands, cold testament
the cross remains
despite its congregation
falling prey to faith
cross contamination
3. Antarctica
fire is all
all they see
they won't believe anything
they won't be cold
until they freeze
they won't speak unless they scream
follow the footsteps of an empty god
forget, forget the past
just like a nightmare that you can't wake from
to antarctica
leave me here, i'm not afraid to die
i'm already dead
they won't be cold
until they freeze
they won't speak unless they scream
follow the footsteps of an empty god
forget, forget the past
just like a nightmare that you can't wake from
to antarctica
leave me here, i'm not afraid to die
i'm already dead
i won't be cold
until i freeze
i won't speak unless i scream
follow the footsteps of an empty god
forget, forget the past
just like a nightmare that you can't wake from
to antarctica
4. Irritating Spectre
in an endless world of endless death
frozen in their screams
icy hands bringing icy death
cold eyes and frozen breath
frozen in their screams
haunted
tortured
by this irritating spectre
in an endless world of endless death
frozen in their screams
icy hands bringing icy death
cold eyes and frozen breath
frozen in their screams
haunted
tortured
by this irritating spectre
pushed to the edge
of the abyss
staring down
a million eyes are staring back at me
violence, torture and pain
all in the name of a ghost
damned yet free
silence as icy hands close
their cold, dead hands around my throat
i will scream
spectre
silence as icy hands close
their cold, dead hands around my throat
i will scream
spectre
irritating spectre
5. Termination
from high mountain, coming down, below smoke and burn you out
termination
coming down, doesn't mean that i'm down permanently
treading water, frozen sea, let me drown, leave me be
blackout sunrise, burning trees, poison letters, set me free
termination
coming down, doesn't mean that i'm down permanently
treading water, frozen sea, let me drown, leave me be
6. Research And Destroy
burnt all the offerings
blackout the tombs
learn to forget it all
too many names to know
cut out the witches' tongue
throw it in the old well
crusade the old way
too many names to tell
where's the wisdom handed down?
we were told to behold all that's found
and just knowing is killing me
so it goes, on and on
research and destroy
i keep searching, it will never die
it lies hidden behind the all-seeing eye
and the pressure is killing me
so it goes, on and on
research and destroy
it's not forgotten, it's not destroyed
it's only buried in our souls
burnt all the offerings
blackout the tombs
learn to forget it all
too many names to know
7. Road Dogs From Hell
fuck the four horsemen
we're hungry like wolves
we're covered in filth, we smell worse than death, we'll ruin your world
let's trash this party
let's break all this shit
let's light it on fire and burn it to the ground, 'til it's a smoldering pit
we are the road dogs from hell
we are the road dogs from hell
we're shit out of luck, don't give a fuck, this is the life we chose
we are the road dogs from hell
from the highest of mountains
to the bottomless swamps
we're bringing you hell with a terrible smell, we won't ever stop
you can't see our stripes
we aren't ever clean
the life of a demon, the shape of a dog, do you see what i mean?
we are the road dogs from hell
we are the road dogs from hell
we're shit out of luck, don't give a fuck, this is the life we chose
we are the road dogs from hell
fucked up forever
'til death do we die
we won't even die, so don't even try
fuck the four horsemen
we're hungry like wolves
we're covered in filth, we smell worse than death, we'll ruin your world
let's trash this party
let's break all this shit
let's light it on fire and burn it to the ground, 'til it's a smoldering pit
we are the road dogs from hell
we are the road dogs from hell
we're shit out of luck, don't give a fuck, this is the life we chose
we are the road dogs from hell
8. I See Demons
taking possession of human remains
everywhere i go, it's always the same
when i close my eyes, i can still see the faces
frozen dead eyes and the coldest embraces
no chance of survival, no way to escape
they creep out of darkness and into my mind
holding me hostage with unblinking eyes
slowly, they'll strangle and render the flesh
mangling bones, they'll devour the rest
i am frozen in sleep, i am paralyzed
when i'm down so low
holding out your cloven hoof
sing our songs up from the grave
into the blackest of nights
taking possession of human remains
everywhere i go, it's always the same
when i close my eyes, i can still see the faces
frozen dead eyes and the coldest embraces
no chance of survival, no way to escape
when i'm down so low
holding out your cloven hoof
sing our songs up from the grave
into the blackest of nights
i
see
demons
inside my mind
