1. The Summoning

[Instrumental]

2. Of The Nile

apophis the destroyer
the ancient spirit god
of evil and destruction
here to devour
the sun boat of Ra
ensure the world will be
consumed by darkness
bring forth your demons now
to plague mankind
allow the wicked and
the wretched to control
now impel the flood of Nile
bestow eternal night
a vile cloak enshrouds your being
your lurid grin of jagged fangs
drip with blood of the meek
an ungodly abomination
your noxious venom
plagues this earth
brought forth from your clench of disposal
calamitous whirlwinds of sand
asphyxiate the most powerful lungs
now in command the plunder of abydos
ensues to retrieve all past pharaohs might
slithering on
in the tenth region of the night
with Egypt overcome
the throne has been relinquished
your hypnotic gaze entrances all
the cursed sun shall never rise again
the underworld now prowls the earth

3. The Age Of Fire

deep-seeded hatred
toward what is a mockery of a god
compels the blackest souls
to assure his demise
the purest vengeance swelling
from the deepest depths of hell
enshrouds this fetid earth
just as the moon shall blot out the sun
an infernal reverence
is the only option for mankind
now feast your mortal eyes
upon the devastation
what was will be
and what is will be no more
an infernal reverence
is the only option for mankind
now feast your mortal eyes
upon the devastation
justice shall reign
through the might of fang and claw
as it was in the beginning
it shall be once again
on a mountain of bones
you sit on a throne of blood
in the castle of suffering
hear me, o god of the abyss
your power is needed now
on this day of consummate darkness
now is the era of evil
dominate enslave and punish them
we summon thee forth
to fulfill the prophecy
of the age of fire
with the very fabric
of existence at your fingertips
impose your will
constrain the tools
which do yield defense for mortality
and empower me
only with the blackest of the black
lessons not learned in human blood
by man are soon forgotten
this is a day of reckoning
we summon thee forth
to fulfill the prophecy
of the age of fire
with the very fabric
of existence at your fingertips
impose your will

4. From Whence They Came

shrouded with the black of night
our ranks move forth to align for war
at dawn a horde of foes
approach from the horizon
i see a flickering
their swords and shields reflect the sun
i close my eyes and forsee the devastation
with the first advancement
i draw my sword and slice at will
no hesitations here
with no question why I've come to kill
decapitation and severed limbs
feeding the flames of fury
until this battles' end
what an immaculate desecration
of carcasses of slaughtered ones
what a blasphemous glare in the eyes
of all the dead
it is clear now that their strength
is dwindling yes they are finished
there is little now the few that
they have left may soon diminish
now the time is upon us to scour
this putrid field of battle
in search of the still breathing opposition
grasping onto dear life and finish them
no foe from this encounter
shall receive the mercy of being spared
to slither back into the darkness
from whence they came to tend to their wounds
and regain strength to fight us once again
many of our great men have been slain
but we may now at last breathe free
ours is the blood of honor courage and strength
let us forget not what
has been accomplished here this day

5. Oh The Horror

insidious display of wrathfulness
that the dark one shall give
to the feeble parasitic human kind
an earthly genocide
merciless unending torturous
his power limitless
and without hesitation he will have
our souls within his grasp
a blinding flash shall illuminate the sky
unfurling a tidalwave of flames
consuming everything in sight
with synchronous destruction
of buildings man and wildlife
a sick manifestation of his might
human flesh disintegrates
an unequivocal suffering
presenting skeletal remains
of another soul which shall be claimed
you have become a servant of my legion
you will bow before me or face the highest
of torment this foul realm can offer
your nightmare will never end
vengeful father unhallowed be thy name
unto you i will bow in service for eternity
dark desires up from the depths you bring
now this human world is doomed once again
exalted one i feel you
flowing through me with hate
compelled with your intention
sedulous immortality
oh the horror
unknowing world
theres no escaping your extinction
a blinding flash shall illuminate the sky
unfurling a tidalwave of flames
consuming everything in sight
with synchronous destruction
of buildings man and wildlife
a sick manifestation of his might

6. Conjuring The Damned

[Instrumental]

7. Impure Divinity

as i face the night
i find myself grasping toward feelings
i thought had passed
until we crossed paths
now i can't help but imagine
your corpse dressed in flowers and thorns
i long to see you helpless tortured
blood draining on the floor
tightly fastened to the table
as i feast away at your flesh
as you're screaming in horror
my darling you're trembling, be calm
it won't be much longer, i promise you
til this homemade injection makes you numb
and poralisys does set in
allowing this dismemberment to begin
so i may gratify my full spectrum of desire
so graceful i carve your skin
with this gleaming tool
of a doctors precision
i excoriate so i may wear
this beautiful mask of your face
you're drifting away now
are your final moments before death
the tranquilise droplets
of blood dripping on the floor
has nearly depleted from you
as you lay there watching
this unveiling of hidden truth
i sever your heart
from the gaping chest cavity
to obtain as a keep sake
as i face the night
your pale rigid corpse is
spread eagle below me
with a cold blank stare
my insemination of fulfillment
seeps through your still body
what a perfect portrayal of euphoria
a sadistic example of
a depravity so diabolical
oh this carnage behold
a perpetual fervor
to ravage and torture
this is pure divinity
as close to perfection as i have come
i cant help but feel more desire
for sanguinary rapture
enthralling my loins
an urge i require
left now are only sections
of your former self
i feel no remorse or compassion
for my vicious actions
under the floor boards you go
with the others i have adored

8. Monstrosity

in the graveyard
a full moon light pervades the sky
thusly waking a demonous beast
six feet under encased
to arise from its transient slumber
with senses transcendent
as the smell of human flesh
engulfs its nostrils
an irrepressible fervor within
draws the beast to attack
expeditious pursuance initiates
with a sheer look of horror
this man is frozen solid
his skin pale with white
prognosticating death

the beasts serrated claws
slash into human flesh
tearing him limb from limb
with ease
left at its wretched hinds
a mound of mangled man
a ghastly picture
of what is yet to come
feeling the power of its first kill
its thirst only increases now to extremes
an insatiable hunger
as every mortal it will devour
shall only fuel its strength
onward to murderous conquest
traverse the scented trail
with great haste
through the severely thickened wood
an unsuspecting settlement
of heedless villagers await
a most untimely slaughter
logs of the bonfire
it throws to torch huts
extracting its victims
in an utter flurry of chaos
to lure them out to their death
the thunderous howling
of this beast and dying men
echos in villages afar
unnerving terror resurrect
from temporary slumber
monstrosity

9. Black Mass

countless christian prayers etched in reverse
mask the stone walls of this decrepit church
in hooded black vestments the cult stands in rows
as goats blood is drunk from a large human skull
under an altar of naked dead bodies
a newly-born girl now is crucified
then strangled and offered as a sacrifice
with a sacramental oath to the dark lord
a pathway to the altar is
trodden through shattered stained glass
a young child's throat is cut to
provide blood for the black chalice
dilapidated missals bound in human skin
locking their most blessed gospel within
eaten are consecrated wafers of
menstrual blood and semen
buried in sin an eternal damnation
a pathway to the altar is
trodden through shattered stained glass
yet another throat is cut to
provide blood for the black chalice
scarred by an iron brand a sequence of six
while they are all feasting on raw human flesh
a sea of black candles burning surround
a pentagram circle chalked onto the ground
overcome with a possessed gaze from their eyes
pure evil emerges, rise
the king of hell takes human form
again in this mortal realm reborn

10. Story Time

Crawling through tunnels deeper into the earth
stairs appear the torches clear the spindled web
a curse written in stone warns us not to go that if we dare
to take these stairs we will surely die
with skulls above that ran of blood it sent a chill through
all our spines so we agreed that we would see now it was do or die.

descending these steps not knowing where there leading us
we feel the bitter cold of the dead breathing down our necks
A door is clear outlined by the torches light
Ancient markings read to find the key before it chimes
yet we have made it through our quest begins
and so our sins have been left here at the door.
A bridge before us we adore it the canyon and the cross
carries us straight over the night our plight is this
to scale the infinite abyss.
where bodies remain now as cold as clay in the depths of the peril that lies beneath.
Over to the lair our fuel is in the fire.
It's on the other side away from the maze
you better believe it
descendants from sages
we're here to save all of mankind.

The five of us no fear but trust
in all the dark and merk,
these revolt songs we sing,
cause we fall,
its what you do with the weight of the world on your shoulders
just be kind
just be true and be your own
be yourself don't play the fool to anyone
cause i might be the one with the gun
pointed in your direction into your face.

A pathway to another realm brick walls slick with things grotesque torchlight casting eerie shadows.
A gust of wind reduces five flames into one
the corridors to narrow a long cast falls away to a cavernous landscape.
In the distance a red haze the final passage to the otherside,
far to late now to run and hide.
The sky is now a crimson fog,
pools of blood surround us,
pouring down the walls as waterfalls.
The screams and moans of the lost souls deafening.

As the beast approaches a large looming figure rears it ugly head,
while we unleash our vengeance the keeper of lost souls shall pass the power on in defeat,
as he lies his bloody head right here at our feet.

Surrounded by energy (all demise) of the souls we set free,
with our spirits united (comes with time) we've now become what we intended to be.
