CENTURIONS GHOST LYRICS

1. The Supreme Moment

Tonight follow the way that the black sky leads
Villains, lustful the thirst of the night
When we become something else
Prowl ground leave not a trace of the prize that's found
Curse this, or display your displeasure
Banished to darkness forever

Aloud, all hell breaks loose when they hear that sound
Hounds cry, the chase is about to ignite
And it's my head that's the prize
Anger displacement
I cannot trust in their patience
For the wrong I have made
The guilt I must feel for the part that I've played

An image has replaced your name
We will suffer this together, forever
For crimes committed you're now shamed

I hear fallen angels speak my name out loud
United by guilt they sing the anthem, sing it proud
We will suffer this together, forever
For crimes committed you're now shamed

And at the supreme moment
The seed springs forth

Carving lines in the wall
How the legends can fall
History repeats again
The age of men know not blood
They just know fear is weakness
Yet they don't speak it
Where is the tongue?

Karma aims a lightning bolt at the few,
Eternal sleep overdue
A blackened mass stand and wait at the door
And at the supreme moment
The seed springs forth

2. Let Sleeping Corpses Die

Infinity is nothing
In the garden of the dead
The hand of doom put under
Six feet of earth
And a coffin for bed

Dead bodies walking
We don't know why
Hate, fear and loathing
Is useless
Let sleeping corpses die

Infinity is all
In the meaning of life
Always there, no tear at your skin
There is nothing left
But soul sacrifice

Dead bodies walking
We don't know why
Hate, fear and loathing
Is useless
Let sleeping corpses die

The dead are walking and are coming your way
You better watch out cos they ain't here to play
They want to catch you and to tear you apart
To greet you, to eat you and that's just the start

Death toll rises as the zombies live on
They won't stop until the meat is all gone
Bones and dust is all that will be left then
They've got you, now you too, are now one of them

Dead bodies walking
We don't know why
Hate, fear and loathing
Is useless
Let sleeping corpses die

3. Only The Strong Can Survive

Never I thought my journey to be
The riding of waves upon this cruel sea
Titan awakes, in my mind evolves
From shanty of seadog and stories of old
Black dawn horizon beckons me forth
Into the abyss we ride
Set sail on course over boundaries of men
Where only the strong can survive

Embracing the moment in our time to come
The legend of iron men spirit lives on
Questioning nature and mans fear of god
Under the wasteland where we all belong
Black dawn horizon beckons me forth
Into the abyss arrive
Set sail on course over boundaries of men
Where only the strong can survive

Timbers crack beneath my feet
To expose the mysterious deep
Fingers breaking
I can't hold on
Torn apart by Neptune's song

Only the strong can survive

4. Black Hearts Will Break

Elation, sanctuary instilled in me
The words ring true
Spoken wise they lead me
Write my obituary
Fears grip won't keep me in
It's thrown my life the key
When will the end be
Cruel intentions
Through the darkness they will feed
All your minds inventions
I would love to believe
Sit back a shock implodes straight
Coal black hearts will break
Another fatal mistake
Leads me to the conclusion vile

In the shadows of the lost man
Lives a soul of strength
And with the pain to vanquish
He will rise again
In the valley of the demons
Lies a mist of mind
Yes the home is where the heart is
But I rot like wasted wine

You gave me the chance
Redemption I could believe
I loved you all the way to your grave beneath the trees
But it must be this way the shape it cannot alter
A mission sent from god, a plan that will not falter

In the shadows of the lost man
Lives a soul of strength
And with the pain to vanquish
He will rise again
In the valley of the demons
Lies a mist of mind
Yes the home is where the heart is
But I rot like wasted wine

5. The Great Work

"The Great Work now, as we move into a new millennium, is to carry out the transition from a period of human devastation of the Earth to a period when humans would be present to the planet in a mutually beneficial manner.
Our own special role, which we will hand on to our children, is that of managing the arduous transition from the terminal Cenozoic to the emerging Ecozoic Era, the period when humans will be present to the planet as participating members of the comprehensive Earth community."
[- Thomas Berry, The Great Work, 2000]

6. Bedbound (In The House Of Doom)

In the house
The walls are filled with stark reminders
Stains of glories old
Aspirations die
Blown away like dust
They settled for too long
Through the grief I feel I must be strong

I understand why you run and you hide, because I am the night

Doors slam that I thought were locked
Driven insane by the tick of the clock
I find a man that I must assume
As I'm bed bound in the house of doom

They scream my name
I'm hearing things again
The solitary silence marks a breakdown
I fell in my brain
Objects come alive
Point the finger, ask the question
Am I in control?
Or is this just a self-conscious suggestion

I understand why you run and you hide, because I am the night

Doors slam that I thought were locked
Driven insane by the tick of the clock
I find a man that I must assume
As I'm bed bound in the house of doom

7. Specimen No.7

[Instrumental]

8. In Defiance

Adversity embraces me
In a world of cruel device
In my mind I'm so frustrated
I can't get no respite
People smile then cut me down
The moment my back's turned
One day soon they'll realise
It's them that I have burned down

Anger burns as my temper rages
I keep it all inside
In defiance my fist it clenches
I'll leave you all behind

Soaring high into the sky
On a doomsday revelation
There's no way that you can beat
True grit determination
Follow me and you will see
That we'll get there somehow
It's too late to bring me down
You can't stop me now

Anger burns as my temper rages
I keep it all inside
In defiance my fist it clenches
I'll leave you all behind

9. Walking Through Walls

Especially to blame for
The damage that's been done
Intent to wage war upon
Mankind all creation
It just needs to be done

You must stand to fall
Work for one
Brand them all
Worship thee
This will be eternity

This will be the benchmark set forever

I walk through walls you have built inside your minds
I am the crushing fear that waits behind you

Upon the surface bliss
But underneath seathes something deadly
Thoughts so divine
Take time to judge a situation
Once over looked we shall befall you
Ending your line

You must stand to fall
Work for one
Brand them all
Worship thee
This will be eternity

I walk through walls you have built inside your minds
I am the crushing fear that waits behind you

Existence now rotting slowly

10. I Am God, You Are Denied

How can we search for the meaning of life
when death comes at a price for us all
The fact we exist for the right to be free
but at the end and the start we all crawl
to where we need to be

Time has me entombed
A filth encrusted womb
A dream I must pursue
To be born into a place I dwell upon

Time will be the death of all this bliss
I can't find a way to get through this

Moments passed will all intertwine
when your rise is exchanged for your fall
Natural instinct and the fortune we crave
gave the answer we seek above all, why we exist to be

Time has me entombed
A filth encrusted womb
A dream I must pursue
To be born into a place I dwell upon

Time will be the death of all this bliss
I can't find a way to get through this

Pushing and pulling me to the dark side
I realise how this establishment slides
Stone has been cast to decide
The fact you forgot the place you reside
All of my dreams multiplied
When I am god and you are denied

Time has me entombed
A filth encrusted womb
A dream I must pursue
To be born into a place I dwell upon

Time will be the death of all this bliss
I can't find a way to get through this
