DEAD TO THIS WORLD LYRICS

1. I, The Facilitator

CHOSEN I HAVE BEEN
TO CHANNEL THAT SPIRIT
VOYEURS THEY’LL COME AND IN NUMBERS
AUTHENTICITY THE SIREN, THE GRAIL THAT ALL MEN SEEK
IT’S WHAT I’M CAPABLE TO PROVIDE

I WILL CHANNEL MY WILL DIRECTLY THROUGH THEM
THEY WILL BE THE CONDUIT AND I THE HAND OF DEATH
I WILL BE THE FACILITATOR, THE CULT OF PANDEMONIUM
THE BLUEPRINT OF EVERY DEMISE

FOR I COMMAND ATTENTION
AND I’M AU FAIT WITH WHAT I AM SELLING
MY THROAT WILL BELLOW ODES OF PLAGUE AND PESTILENCE
MY BREATH WILL BE PESTIFEROUS, CONSTRICTING EVERY LUNG
THE AURA OF DECAY WILL PERVADE EVERY NOSTRIL
ITS FILTH SCATTERED ACROSS THE SHOULDERS OF THE WORLD
I (WILL BE) THE ARBITER OF DEATH
I WILL USURP
I WILL PROVIDE
I WILL READY EACH AND EVERY MAN
FOR THE TRANSITION FROM LIFE INTO THE EYE OF ARMAGEDDON

WHEN THE SEED OF GOD IS BUT DUST
AND THE DREAMS OF SALVATION ARE CRUSHED UNDERFOOT

WHEN THE SMOKE AND FLAMES ARE ALL THAT REMAINS
WHEN EXQUISITE DREAMS OF HEAVEN ARE GROUND INTO DUST
AND EVEN THE MOST PROFOUND LONGINGS
ARE BUT RUST
COME DRINK FROM THE CHALICE OF CESSATION
SUCCUMB TO THE ENCHANTRESS’ LURE
FORSAKE YOUR FLOCK, RELINQUISH THY FLESH
THE BLOOD IS NO LONGER THE LIFE

THE MOST LEGENDARY DEATH COULD BE YOURS
SUCH GRANDEUR IS MINE TO DISPENSE
COME BASK IN THE FIRES OF MY WILL
COME RELISH THE MAJESTY OF DESISTANCE

IT’S NOT INSANITY THAT I WEILD
BUT A PROMINENCE BEYOND ATTAINMENT

2. Night Of The Necromancer

TRANSCEND THE RELUCTANT FEELING
I RISE INTO THE SHADOWED LANDS
IN THE HOUR OF PERFECTION, HEALING
ITS ESSENCE PURE AND BLACK HEREIN
I BELONG HERE, MEANT TO BE
THEY SING FOR ME
IN DARKEST DREAMS I COULD FORESEE
AMONGST THE WEEPING
TERROR RISES, EVER WATCHING
BY BREAK OF DAWN WE STRIKE AS ONE
NEVER CLOSE YOUR EYES
NEVER LOOK AWAY
RISING FROM GROUND BEHIND YOU
CAREFULLY, INSTINCTIVELY
NEVER STIR THE WATERS
NEVER MAKE A SOUND BECAUSE
THIS IS THE NIGHT OF THE NECROMANCER
THIS IS THE NIGHT OF THE DEAD
SPIRITLESS IN NOTHINGNESS
JAWS OF DEATH SET YOU FREE
CLAIMS YOUR LIFE
PIERCING PAIN, BURNING FLESH
PILING BONES INTO GRAVES
STRIP YOU DOWN
PROCREATE THE STORMING DEAD
INTO WAR, SPITTING FORTH
JOIN THE DEAD
WITH THE POWER FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE
WE SHALL AVENGE OURSELVES
NEVER CLOSE YOUR EYES
NEVER LOOK AWAY
RISING FROM GROUND BEHIND YOU
CAREFULLY, INSTINCTIVELY
NEVER STIR THE WATERS
NEVER MAKE A SOUND BECAUSE
THIS IS THE NIGHT OF THE NECROMANCER
THIS IS THE NIGHT OF THE DEAD

3. Shadows Of The Cross

THE CHRISTIAN MYTH PROJECTS THE BELIEF
THAT SUFFERING OF FLESH WILL SURELY SUCCEED
BEYOND THIS PHYSICAL FORM AND INTO THE UNKNOWN
BEYOND THE ANGUISH WE’VE KNOWN
HOW COULD A SOUL POSSESS EARTHLY FEELING
THE ESOTERIC THREAT DEFIANT OF REASON
SUBSERVIENCE WON ON THE MOST FEEBLE PREMISE
WE DEFINE REASON
MANIFEST THESE OBJECTIVES
RELIGIOUS FERVOR REVOKED
THIS IS THE FINAL SUPPER FOR FAITH
THIS REVELATION IS PURE
CLEANSE THE VIRUS OF BELIEF
INFECT THE PORTAL TO PROVIDENCE
CAN YOU FEEL THE FIRE THAT BURNS IN OUR HEARTS?
IT’S FORGED IN A BLAZE OF COMMITMENT
UNTANGLED WE ARE, SINGULAR IN PURPOSE
WE QUEST TO ENLIGHTEN ALL MEN
FROM OUR MANTLE WE’LL IMPOSE THESE WORDS UNTO YOU
A WEAPON THE LIGHTENED SHALL WIELD
A PLAGUE THAT DEVOURS THE CHOSEN SPIRITS
AND LIBERATES THOSE WITH THE WILL

MANIFEST THESE OBJECTIVES
RELIGIOUS FERVOR REVOKED
THIS IS THE FINAL SUPPER FOR FAITH
THIS REVELATION IS PURE
CLEANSE THE VIRUS OF BELIEF
INFECT THE PORTAL TO PROVIDENCE
CLANDESTINE IN OUR QUEST
WE LURK IN THE SHADOWS OF THE CROSS
TO SET A FIRE IN THE HEARTS OF THOSE ABLE TO HEAR
OBSOLETE (NOW) THE OLD LAWS
AND THEIR FAVORED REWARDS
WE ARE THEY WHO LEADS THE RATS INTO PARADISE
(TO SET) A SCOURGE UPON THE HEAVENS
GOD’S AN ILLUSION
A DELUSIONAL CRUTCH
THAT CAN NO LONGER TRUSS YOU UP

AKNOWLEDGE. ACCEPT. OBEY

[REPEAT 1ST VERSE]

4. Goatpower

WE AWAIT YOUR DEATH AT FUNERALS

HIS POWER HAS BEEN PASSED ONTO ME
BLEEDING DEATH THROUGHOUT OUR VEINS

FEAR FOR YOUR LIFE
AS WE TRACK YOU DOWN
MAKE NO SOUND
MARCHING THE STREETS
REEKS GOATPOWER EVERYWHERE

TONIGHT WE WILL FIGHT
UNLOAD DYNAMITE
ON MY SIGNAL AIM AND SHOOT
CHARGE ARTILLERY
VOTE MISANTHROPY
THE GATES OF HELL
HAVE BEEN REOPENED
AND THE DEMONS NOW
SWARM THE SKY
REPENT OR YOU DIE
BLOOD SPILL, FIRE AT WILL
CRUSH THE HOLY LIE
CHARGE ARTILLERY
VOTE MISANTHROPY

GOATPOWER NOW

REINFORCE PENALTY
SUDDEN DEATH, VICTORY
45 RPM THRASH METAL
TILL THE END

WE’VE GOT THE POWER TO DETONATE LIFE

5. 1942

THE EXECUTION ENDS, ANOTHER ONE LINES UP
WE WAIT IN SILENCE ON THE MISTED HILLS
WE RAISE OUR BARRELS, AND THE STORY HERE BEGINS
THEY TOOK OUR MEN, BUT LET’S JUST SEE WHO WINS
IT WAS A NIGHT WHICH SEEMED TO LAST FOREVERMORE
WITH SPLINTERED BONES AND BLEEDINGS WE ARE APPROACHED OUR RANGE
A BULLET WITH MY NAME THEN SHOT ME TO THE GROUND
I SAW TWO FEET IN FRONT OF ME, RED CROSS ON HIS ARM
MERCENARY:
“UNLESS YOU WANT TO DIE NOW, STAND UP
RAISE YOUR HEAD, CHARGE YOUR WEAPON INTO WAR
NEVER GIVE IN TO THE ENEMY
KEEP YOUR MIND SET ON YOUR SANITY
UNLESS YOU WANT A SHALLOW GRAVE, FIND YOU STRENGTH
PICK UP YOUR BULLETS. ON YOUR FEET. BETTER RUN
WE NEVER GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT, NEVER WILL
BE A SOLDIER. THAT’S AN ORDER, NOW GO!”
WITH AMMO IN OUR GUNS AND GRENADE IN OUR HANDS
WE LIT THE NIGHT WITH FLAMES SO HIGH. WE FOUGHT OUR WAY
COMBINING STRATEGY WITH A HUNGER FOR THE KILL
WE MADE IT THROUGH THE BARRIERS. FIRE IN OUR WILL
PILES OF BODIES AS FAR AS THE EYE COULD SEE
A SMELL OF DEATH COMBINES WITH BURNING GASOLINE
IT IS A VISION I SHALL BEAR INTO MY GRAVE
I’D RATHER TAKE A STAB OR TWO AND HAVE THEM SAVED
WITH ALL THE HATRED IN THIS WORLD, WE SHALL AVENGE
THE TWISTED BODIES WHO CANNOT SEEK THEIR REVENGE
WE TRIED TO SAVE THEM, (BUT) NOW THE PLAN IS LAID TO WASTE
GOT TO FIND THEM, HUNT THEM DOWN

WE CAUGHT THEM ONE BY ONE. NO MERCY COULD PROTECT
THE AIM WAS KILL AND KILL AGAIN TILL NOTHING LEFT
FOR EVERY DROP OF BLOOD THAT FELL UNTO THE EARTH
SHALL JUSTIFY OUR HISTORY FROM HERE INTO ETERNITY
STILL TO THIS DAY I CAN STILL HEAR THEM SCREAM
EVERY NIGHT THEY COME TO ME TO SET THEM FREE
THE STENCH OF BURNING FLESH IN EVERY BREATH I TAKE
HOW I WISH I COULD GO BACK AGAIN…

PILES OF BODIES AS FAR AS THE EYE COULD SEE
A SMELL OF DEATH COMBINES WITH BURNING GASOLINE
IT IS A VISION I SHALL BEAR INTO MY GRAVE
I’D RATHER TAKE A STAB OR TWO AND HAVE THEM SAVED
WITH ALL THE HATRED IN THIS WORLD, WE SHALL AVENGE
THE TWISTED BODIES WHO CANNOT SEEK THEIR REVENGE
WE TRIED TO SAVE THEM, (BUT) NOW THE PLAN IS LAID TO WASTE
AT LEAST WE GAVE THEM HELL AND LIVED TO TELL

6. Into The Light (Baphomet Rising)

IRREVERSIBLE
POWERS TO BE, POWERS THAT WERE
AN UNDYING BALANCE
FEEDING UPON THE FLESH OF THE WEAK
CONSUMMATE ME
DESCEND YOUR WISDOM, MAKE ME AS ONE
WITH YOUR EVER STRENGTHENING
THE INDESTRUCTIBLE
ONWARDS AND DRAWING NEARER
SPIRALING INTO THE NIGHT
NONE SHALL FOLLOW
WHEN DARKNESS MATERIALIZES
THE OCEAN ALL-CONSUMING
THE MOUNTAINS CRACK
THIS BLEAK ILLUSION
SHAKEN OFF MY BACK
GRANT ME YOUR VENOMOUS
YOUR TREASUROUS LIGHT
GUIDE ME ON MY WAY
SO RICH AND EMPOWERING
THESE WALLS ARE CRUMBLING
I AM SICKENING MYSELF
NEVER TO RETURN
THIS BODY LEFT TO BURN

RISE WITH FIRE
EJECT FROM PAIN
THIS HUMAN ERROR
BROUGHT TO LIFE IN VAIN
CONNECT MY SPIRIT
FEED THE ANCIENT FLAME
COME LIT THE SKY
MAKE ME PURE AGAIN

LEAVING THIS MORTAL SHELL
BECOMING THE UNCONQUERABLE
BLEEDING ALL LIFE AWAY
ENTER THE DEADLESS REIGN
COUNTDOWN FOR MAN TODAY
SHOW ME MORE…
LEND ME YOUR EYE TO SEE
WIDE OPEN GATE FOR ME

7. Unholy Inquisition

TASTE THE BLOOD IN YOUR MOUTH
FEEL THE RUSH OF ECSTASY
THE DAY HAS COME FOR US TO BE FREE
CAN’T YOU SEE?
DEVASTATING TRUTH REVEALED
MANKIND ON ITS KNEES
PUT THE GUN TO YOUR HEAD
PULL THE TRIGGER, MASS RELEASE
THIS WILL COMPLIMENT YOUR SOULS
LIKE A VULTURE IN THE NIGHT
TEETH GRINDING JAWS
ENDS YOUR LIFE, FREEING SOULS
WIPE THE CLOTH OF THE EARTH
PYROPLECTIC AGONY
HAIL THE HORDES OF THE NEW SUN
WE WILL BE…
THIS WILL COMPLIMENT YOUR SOULS
FEEDING LIFE TO THE GRAVE
HUNT YOU DOWN, NOONE SAFE
SPREAD YOUR WINGS, ANGEL SINGS
KILLING SPREE, SET YOU FREE
DEAH TO LIFE, MUTINY
BLEEDING BODIES EVERYWHERE
DETONATE, RECREATE
BODIES BURN AT THE STAKE
BURN THE CROSS, NOT TOO LATE
SHALLOW GRAVE, HOLY SLAVE
FUCKIN HELL, WE SHALL TELL
THE STORY WHEN IT WENT SO WELL

8. To Free Death Upon Them

“OH, ANCIENT EARTH…WHAT UNGODLY CREATURE AWAITS FOR THY FINAL COMMAND IN THE DARK CORNERS OF YOUR WOMB? HAVE I NOT STARED DEEP ENOUGH TO REVEAL ITS PLAGUE UPON THEM?”

I FEEL ITS HUNGER…IT’S COMING
LIVE BAIT IN THE DEAD OF THE NIGHT
BLACK STEEL SHARPENS THE LANDSCAPE
COLD ARMOR SHINING SO BRIGHT
I AM READY, BRING US TO WAR
CHARGE WEAPON, GIVE HEED TO THE CALL
ALL LIFE CONNECTS TO THE WARNING
FIERCE WIND STOPS AS IF IN AWE

REVEAL YOUR DARKNESS UPON THEM
GIVE STRENGTH TO THE HIGHEST OF LAWS
WITH YOU, MY SOUL SHARES WISDOM
GROUND SWALLOWS ALL MEN NOT OF KINGS

BRING ME THE ONES WHO CAN NOT FATHOM WHAT LIES AHEAD
AND I’LL GUIDE HIM DIRECTIONS TO SUDDEN DEATH
FOR AS THE HOUR DRAWS TO AN END, ALL LIFE SHALL PERISH
AND THE GROUND SHALL OPEN AND ERASE THAT WHICH WERE
…AND JUST AS DEATH SETS FREE, I SHALL FREE DEATH UPON THEM
FOR THIS IS THE NIGHT WHEN ALL THE OCEANS OF THE WORLD
SHALL RISE AND WASH AWAY ALL LIVING THING
MASS SUICIDE AND MURDER SHALL BREAK OUT
AND ENHANCE THE COMING OF THE FINAL SWEEPING WIND
AND AMIDST IT ALL, FIREPOWER SHALL BE HANDED OUT TO
EACH AND EVERYONE, AND IT SHALL BE THEIR NEW GOD
A NEW SUN SHALL RISE, FOR IT IS A BRIGHTER SUN
AND DEATH SHALL BE NO MORE…

9. Hammer Of The Gods

CUT OUT THEIR TONGUES, REMOVE THEIR SONS AND DAUGHTERS
FOR THEY DO NOT KNOW THEIR WAYS THROUGH PAIN
IN TIMES OF WEALTH, THEY STILL DEPEND ON THE OTHER
SPIRITLESS AND BLIND THEY SHALL FOREVER REMAIN
UNSEEN TERROR
FROM THE PAST
STRIKE NOW TO PRESERVE THE ANCIENT WAY
RISE UP TO INHALE THE GOD OF GODS
IF NOT NOW, WHO SHALL FIGHT AND HOLD FORTRESS?
WHICH ONES HAVE THE RIGHT TO EVER COMPLAIN AGAIN?
INSTANT TORMENT
WITH THE WIND
CRAWLING NEARER
COUNT ME IN…
