1. The Enemy Inside
It gained control of me
the dark side of my mind
this hollow shell
A body with no soul
Feeding on me, growing inside, this parasite
dormant within, now it's alive, it came to life
Feeding on me, growing inside, this parasite
dormant within, now it's alive, it came to life
With each breath I take
I feel the pain
It has a hold of me
the thoughts I think
deep within my body
eating me from inside
I can't control
this other self
The enemy, the enemy, the enemy inside of me
Feeding on me, growing inside, this parasite
dormant within, now it's alive, it came to life
Feeding on me, growing inside, this parasite
dormant within, now it's alive, it came to life
Separate from myself
Actions without thoughts
in constant agony
distortion of reality
Alternate emotions
now come to life
my soul asleep
unconscious, but awake
The enemy, the enemy, the enemy inside of me
Feeding on me, growing inside, this parasite
dormant within, now it's alive, it came to life
Feeding on me, growing inside, this parasite
dormant within, now it's alive, it came to life
It gained control of me
the dark side of my mind
this hollow shell
A body with no soul
With each breath I take
I feel the pain
It has a hold of me
the enemy inside
2. Silent Violence
I cut your throat, wide, opening
A hole in your neck
Your blood sprays my skin warm and wet
You can't feel your heart beating
Scream no one is listening
I cut your tongue from your mouth
Dying you feel yourself slip away
Your dead body will be left unburied
No one will find you dead
All is quiet as I force my fist down your cut throat
Grabbing tendons and veins
I pull your insides out through your lipless mouth
Your stiff body is cold and still
Dying you feel yourself slip away
Your dead body will be left unburied
No one will find you dead
Violent
Silence
Dying you feel yourself slip away
Your dead body will be left unburied
No one will find you dead
Haphazardly I remove your spleen
And your liver
There is much blood
Eyes have been removed
While you were still alive
Now I tear your flesh, I am ripping your skin
Dying you feel yourself slip away
Your dead body will be left unburied
No one will find you dead
Fingerless hands, clenched - I continue to dissect
Blood spurting from punctured flesh
Your naked body stripped of skin
Soon you will rotten
Insects infest your flesh
3. Lycanthropy
The blood of the wolf
Infects my body
in the night hear the howling
screaming, flesh chewed to the bone
bleeding, eternal horror
dying in the darkness
now one of us
bitten by the wolf
now one of us
When the moon is full
And the night comes down
Fear all unnatural sounds
Human beast, animal
Curse of the lycanthrope
dying in the darkness
Now one of us
bitten by the wolf
Now one of us
Carnivorous
lust for human flesh
legacy of blood
Another victim
Carnivorous
lust for human flesh
legacy of blood
infected dead
the blood of the wolf
infects my body
in the night hear the howling
screaming, flesh chewed to the bone
bleeding, eternal horror
When the moon is full
And the night comes down
Fear all unnatural sounds
Human beast, animal
Curse of the lycanthrope
4. Still Alive
dead, but now I wake
Rotten - eight years in the grave
smell the ripe decay
No eyes in my skull, but I still see
Alive, I'm dead, alive - something has given me life
Cut me I bleed no blood
stab my skin, out runs the pus
try to kill what's already dead
A dead corpse living rotten
Resting dead - now I rise
from the grave, my flesh is decayed
Alive, I'm dead, alive
You tried to kill me
I don't die that easily
back from the dead
I live again
Alive, I'm dead, alive - something has given me life
drinking the blood from a severed head
living flesh soon will rotten
horrors of the undead
A headless corpse, dead - convulsing
bleeding, no blood left
No way to kill what is dead
Alive, I'm dead, alive
5. Beneath A Black Sky
look to the sky
it's turning black
no sun shining light
day turns into night
no moon above
lost in the shadows
eclipsing the sun
only darkness above
beneath a black sky
All life will end
infinite winter
eternal darkness
thunder cracks the silence
emptiness
above us only black
frozen stiff
nothing remains
beneath a black sky
look to the sky
it's turning black
no sun shining light
day turns into night
emptiness
Above us only black
hollow horizon
No sun rising
6. Human Target
My life, my soul
my thoughts are my own
I live to die
that's why I was born
kill or be killed
the law of the land
standing tall, I'm not running scared
Human target
Scarred, beaten
my bones were broken
bruised, mistreated
for what I believe in
Survive or die
fear for your life
I grip the gun tight
three shots to the chest
one to the head
Standing tall, I'm not running scared
living through the violence
I'm just surviving - there's no way to end this
one more dead, one survives
instinct to live
living through the violence
I'm just surviving - there's no way to end this
living through the violence
I'm just surviving - there's no way to end this
one more dead, one survives
instinct to live
I won't - die
My life, my soul
my thoughts are my own
I live to die
that's why I was born
kill or be killed
the law of the land
standing tall, I'm not running scared
survive or die
fear for your life
I grip the gun tight
Human Target
7. Remains Of You
You saw your life pass before your eyes
I watched your body twist in pain
Rotten bodies, dead
leaking pussing limbs
Separated heads
smell the rotting dead
degenerating flesh
mutilated after death
moulded decayed skin
decomposition
bodily disintegration
I took an axe to your head
chopping rotten flesh
brain is seeping from the cracks in your skull
blood drains from holes in your torso
I took your life from you
Collapsed organs now rot and corrode
Your empty body - bloated
Pus clots on discolored skin
lifeless abused remains
Remains of you
nothing remains of you
once alive
Now just pile of flesh
decomposition
bodily disintegration
I took an axe to your head
chopping rotten flesh
brain is seeping from the cracks in your skull
blood drains from holes in your torso
I took your life from you
I violate the rotten dead
bodies tortured, stiffened carnage
in my mind I need to kill
Amputate, cutting skin, through the bone
disfigured human flesh
leaking pussing limbs
separated heads
smell the rotting dead
I took an axe to your head
chopping rotten flesh
brain is seeping from the cracks in your skull
blood drains from holes in your torso
I took your life from you
I defile the rotten corpse
mutilated after death
moulded decayed dead
Your empty body - bloated
Pus clots on discolored skin
lifeless abused remains
Remains of you
nothing remains of you
8. Suffering In Ecstasy
Suffer inside myself
there is no hope
In this grave
bottomless
the deepest depths
an empty pit
no way to live
dead
It's killing me
this deadly plaque
poisoned blood
runs through my veins
finding pleasure
within the pain
I'm suffering
A step away
from the edge
one more rush
All I need is
A harder push
there is no cure
my infection is self inflicted
I'm suffering
in ecstasy
slowly dying
inside my body
locked away
with no escape
finding pleasure
within the pain
A step away
from the edge
one more rush
All I need is
A harder push
there is no cure
my infection is self inflicted
It's killing me
this deadly plaque
poisoned blood
runs through my veins
finding pleasure
within the pain
I'm suffering
Suffer inside myself
there is no hope
In this grave
bottomless
the deepest depths
an empty pit
no way to live
dead
A step away
from the edge
one more rush
All I need is
A harder push
there is no cure
my infection is self inflicted
I'm suffering
in ecstasy
slowly dying
inside my body
locked away
with no escape
finding pleasure
within the pain
9. Tomorrow's Victim
Premonition, I dreamt of horror
knowledge of the future
i've broken through the barrier
Transcend beyond my body
the spirits call to me
these nightmares are reality
Reflections - of another life
Reflections - in my eyes
Visions, victims
I've seen each death
murder, torture
I know the next - dead
Through shadows of the mind
Reaching for the light
I've seen them die
When I close my eyes
Reflections - of another life
Reflections - in my eyes
I've seen the dead
tomorrow's victim
I've told of places I've seen
but have never been
Terror, fear
as each life ends
Horror, dread
I've seen the next - dead
10. Torn To The Bone
Blood on skin, so pale
Stained and cold
there's something I've wanted
for so long
the taste of flesh
hunger for blood
sever the skin
torn to the bone
fresh blood bleeds
dripping from wounds
veins leak
as skin turns blue
the taste of flesh
hunger for blood
sever the skin
torn to the bone
Bodies ripped apart
skin begins to rot
injest the infection
of the dead
Blood on skin, so pale
stained and cold
this is something I've wanted
for so long
the taste of flesh
Hunger for blood
Sever the skin
torn to the bone
11. Haunted
I hear screams, echoes of the dead
in the silence - screaming
Haunted by the dead
listen
they're calling me to join them
Rotting away
I'm decomposing
Rotting inside
Slow decay
I wake screaming in the middle of the night
burning inside
I'm turning cold
Rotting away
I'm decomposing
Rotting inside
Slow decay
Skin sweating, my heart skipped a beat
something behind me
something I can't see
Rotting away
I'm decomposing
Rotting inside
Slow decay
Haunted - haunted
haunted by the dead
Rotting away
I'm decomposing
Rotting inside
Slow decay
Silence the screaming has stopped
my body hangs dead, swinging from a rope
in the silence
listen
they're calling you to join them
Rotting away
I'm decomposing
Rotting inside
Slow decay
Rotting away
I'm decomposing
Rotting inside
