HOLOCAUST LYRICS

1. Leper's Progress

The mercy of the Living God renew your mind,
Unclean! Unclean! I am a survival machine,
Present your body as a living sacrifice,
Don't touch me, don't touch me, I am defiled.

We gotta change inside
We gotta change inside
We gotta change inside

The good I would do - this is what I do not do,
To live by what I hate is my unbroken rule,

Oh my soul!

Leper! Outcast! Unclean...
Misfit! Weirdo! Unseen...
Leper! Outcast! Unclean...
Misfit! Weirdo! Unseen...

I was alive I had my leprosy and pain,
I took a vow to save my life go down the drain,
Above the world, beyond the grave, behind the snow
The work is done, and you are whiter than show.

Oh my soul!

We gotta change inside
We gotta change inside
We gotta change inside
We gotta change it, change it, rearrange it, change it, change inside...

2. Salt Heart

Stone and sea participating in what remains,
The power that's remaining...
Even though I see despite in me, I wonder...
I wonder if at home beyond the Sunbirth sea, do they keep a flame?
A fire to burn away the darkness in my soul?
Salt Heart
Foamfollower
I am Salt Heart... Stone and sea!

Stay by me, beloved Unbeliever,
I shall weep for all the tales you could not tell.
I remain when even sanity is hell
I retain, the vision of the innocent,
Even though I see despite in me, I wonder...
I wonder if at home beyond the blue horizon, do they keep a flame?
A fire to burn away the darkness in your soul?
Salt Heart
Foamfollower
I am Salt Heart... Stone and sea!

3. Return To Dust

Tell me, do you ever get out breath when you go chasing the wind?
Never just let a moment go by because your time is money?
Me, I like my "pie in the sky"...
Do you see how the days fly under the sun?

Does it ever take a hold of your heart, that Eternal God,
Looking down on rebellious man,
Should make a covenant?
An everlasting covenant...
Do you see how the days fly under the sun?

And all our days are vain,
In Self we do trust.
But our bodies and our brains
Shall each return to dust.

The resurrection day of the Eternal Lamb
Has taken death away from those who died with Him.

I'm not afraid to return to dust.
Return to dust, I'm not afraid, no, no...
I'm not afraid.

4. Paradox

White Gold Wielder
Unbeliever

5. The Battle Of Soaring Woodhelven

6. Valley Of Megiddo

So the reign of Satan on this earth shall end.
In this place.
In the Valley of Megiddo.

7. Mount Thunder

The sheer face of the Landsdrop
Rends the earth in twain
For evil banes
Buried deep in Mount Thunder

The domicile of the Despiser
Looks down
On Andelain.

Treacher's Gorge leads us on to the edge of the Abyss.
Goodbye Andelain
Sweet Andelain
Power comes from the glory of the one you serve,
All else is impotence.

8. We Shall See Him As He Is

The day of grace is near its end,
Oh say, can you see shadows lengthening?

Do you often feel the emptiness,
Every woman, every man just a consequence of molecular gains?
But it seems we are a blight upon this blue and green creation,
Running on with fear inside,
Towards Eventide.

The day of grace is near its end,
All our earthly ambition ends in the grave,
Like this song...
Who will hear it when I am long gone?
But I don't shed a tear, because I've been given everything,
And every woman, every man, could have just the same,
Before Eventide.

The day of grace is near its end,
We shall see Him as He is
We shall see Him as He is
We shall see Him as He is
We shall see Him as He is

9. Alexander

Omens, days of blood and toil
Seeds grow in a barren soil
Nothing shall be deemed impossible,
Bring Olympus down
Witness all ye gods,
This is the dawn of the mighty.

Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall
But there has to be an end to it all.

Ah, mirror of the sky,
Odysseus knew thee not as I.
How the seas have changed!
Holy reason comes to the sanctified,
Then everything succumbs!
This is the dawn of the mighty,

Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall
But there has to be a reason.

Never underestimate the Leopard,
Quick, sudden, ruthless.

Is it really so far to the end of the earth?
Is it really so far to the end of the earth?
Daniel, Daniel
Daniel, what did you see concerning me?
Daniel,
Daniel, what did you see concerning me?

Is it really so far to the apotheosis?
Is it really so far,
Is it really so far to the Infinite?

So far, so deluded,
What is Man?
Ashes and dust.
Ashes, embers.

10. The Infinite
