DEATHLIKE SILENCE LYRICS

1. Trapped In The Night

What was that noise
Off in the dark?
Something that's poised
Waiting to spring
And rend her flesh,
She is the victim.

Her cheeks are wet
They taste of salt
Her innocence
Won't go unharmed
Only fifteen, there's no escaping her plight.

She runs painlessly, trapped in the night
Fleeing from monsters and murderous wights.
The trees around her are
Malevolent beings, fiends who'll hunt her down.
The ground is painted red with her blood.

He runs alone
With nothing there
To help, to guide him.
The stars are lost
Amongst the clouds,
Their light won't find him.

Oh how he cries,
Tears in his eyes.
His innocence
Will come to harm.
Only thirteen, there's no escaping, no flight.

He runs painlessly, trapped in the night
Fleeing from monsters and murderous wights.
The trees around her are
Malevolent beings, fiends who'll hunt her down.
The ground is painted red with his blood.

2. ...and You Cry

Chained down hands and feet you find yourself,
With pain shooting through your every single limb.
Deprived of sight you have to feel around,
But there are walls on every single side and

They seem to be closing in on you.
Shivering with fear you feel the panic rising.

And you cry,
With your chest constructing and your
Sightless eyes
They are burning holes into your
Aching head.
Your heart is failing and you are
Filled with dread,
Fear consumes your soul.

You find your hands clawing at something,
Only to realize it's your face they're scarring.
Frantically you go on pawing.
The warmth of your own blood almost soothing.

Leering hateful faces fill your head,
Jeering voices that want you dead.

3. Who's Gonna Bury Me

The ground is wet
Underneath my boots when I walk again
Across this old graveyard
Tombstones
Sigh with me when I start to
Digging my way

Oh feel my arms aching
Oh feel the soil braking

Who's gonna bury me, when I'm old and done?
Who's gonna lay my bones to their everlasting home?

Buried my father
And everyone I ever knew
No daughter, nor son to get me through
I'm ageing with these
Trees around me and the stones sigh
As I pass them by

Oh feel the times changing
Oh feel my arms aching

4. Dagon

Down in darkness, in the ocean,
Lies the baleful lair of the deep ones
Part monsters, part human,
Life eternal live these creatures
Done their deed, done their duty
Sacrificed their lives for his glory
Another breed, lost their beauty
Ain't from tales for bedtime story

Plunge down there and meet your fate
Worship him or confront his hate

DAGON - the elder god of evil
DAGON - before his might you'll kneel
DAGON - or devour you he will
DAGON - and no one hears your squeal

Sleepy village hides a secret
They revere this ancient demon
All arrivals will be tied up
And then offered for ascription
Of the females all the fertiles
Have to bear a scion for him
Spare the details for casting chills
Of those children's deformed limbs

Plunge down there and meet your fate
Worship him or confront his hate

DAGON - the elder god of evil
DAGON - before his might you'll kneel
DAGON - or devour you he will
DAGON - and no one hears your squeal

5. Till Death Tears Apart

In a dim room lies this old and bitter man
Hence the gnawing illness it is all he can.
Grievous pain he suffers, enormous agony.
It nearly crushes him but still he wants to be

Alive to avenge the loved one he once had,
Departed violently, by murderer gone mad.
Devoting rest his life to getting his revenge,
Never found the killer, hatred had to quench.

Sorrow, has overwhelmed his mind
Hollow, is his life of some kind
Shadows, lives within his heart and
Follows, till death tears apart

Time is standing still but he just holds on tight
Blinded by the fact that he can't win this fight
Now the death has arrived to reap this draw so sour
Only waiting for the raven-winged hour

Sorrow, has overwhelmed his mind
Hollow, is his life of some kind
Shadows, lives within his heart and
Follows, till death tears apart

6. Troops Of Armageddon

Ages has man walked the globe
And ruled on top of the food chain
All along without hesitation,
Abused, raped and looted the earth

Till one day we woke some menacing
Evil that is hard to explain,
Lain dormant it had for eons,
Proving now, what it's worth

The predators has turned to the prey
There is nothing more to do but pray

The legion of bat-winged devils unleashed,
Seeding destruction, they can't be appeased.
Annihilating the mankind, blood darkens the sun,
When dust has settled, survivors are none.

The formation of grisly demons,
Maiming everyone on their path.
Followed by the metallic monsters,
Leaving behind the scorched earth.

The cohort of rude behemoths,
Tears down every structure with wrath
When it comes your turn to face them, You will regret your birth

The day of the doom has arrived
The troops of Armageddon ride

The legion of bat-winged devils unleashed,
Seeding destruction, they can't be appeased.
Annihilating the mankind, blood darkens the sun,
When dust has settled, survivors are none.

7. Shadows Fall

Shades appear around you
As you lie down to sleep

Silent whispers in the dark
Horrid shapes, deformities
Cringe and close your eyes
Beg the horrors, 'leave me be'
Alone you face your beast,
Shuddering as you weep

Shadows fall, the night's here
Faces haunt my dreams
Cries from times forgotten
Of Old evils

Visions roam your mind
Sunken cities, forgotten crimes
From dark corners of the earth,
Tales from wicked times
Yield to the fear
Alone and battered in the dark
The nightmare now reality
A hollow shell, insanity

8. The Headsman

The morning sun beam
Finds a man in black
With a cruel face
No marks of grace
The tools of his trade
Seem scary on the back
Against the wall
He uses them all

Seeing him makes grown men weep
The eyes of him their flesh to creep
And his axe puts them to sleep eternal

Doomed in line
Waiting for the call
Staring at the traces of blood all around
Their lined faces
Hearing the sound of the
Man's head dropping to the floor

Falling axe
Sprays blood on the wall
Another head to the top of the mound
Quiet whining echoes from the walls
The last words before the blood pours

Master of his craft
Everybody scare
His gloomy skill
It is to kill

In solitude lives he
Because no one dare
To be with him
His name is grim

Seeing him makes grown men weep
The eyes of him their flesh to creep
And his axe puts them to sleep eternal

Doomed in line
Waiting for the call
Staring at the traces of blood all around
Their lined faces
Hearing the sound of the
Man's head dropping to the floor
Falling axe
Sprays blood on the wall
Another head to the top of the mound
Quiet whining echoes from the walls
The last words before the blood pours

9. They'll Eat Us

Our days are numbered, one will be the last,
When lived lives start sliding to the past.
They await us then under the ground,
Those slimy creatures down there abound.

They'll eat us
Defeat us
They will feast with our rotting flesh
We're equal, one's sequel
Our white bones they will caress

The feasting starts when we are laid
To rest in our crowded grave.
In the end there's just a pile of bone,
Under cold and lonely headstone.

They'll eat us
Defeat us
They will feast with our rotting flesh
We're equal, one's sequel
Our white bones they will caress

10. Moonlight Shadow

[Mike Oldfield cover]

The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
Lost in a river last Saturday night
Far away on the other side.
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
Four am in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star was light in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
But she couldn't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
Far away on the other side.
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
The night was heavy but the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Far away on the other side.

11. Burning Flesh

Bound and gagged
By her hair
She is dragged
To a fate of fame and pain.

She was just
She's done no harm,
And still we lust
To see her die in agony.

God is pleased when we kill his enemies.

The smell of burning flesh
Fills the air around us.
The heat is her defeat
She lights our hearts with hope.
Her inhuman screams
Carried on the wind
Tell all of mankind
That the evil witch is dead.

She seemed serene
In the face of it.
Through she could plainly see
That her fate was sealed with certainty.

We have made
Orphans of
Her little ones
But God will take care for them.

God is pleased when we kill his enemies.
