THE PROJECT HATE MCMXCIX LYRICS

1. Holy Ground Is Not Safe Anymore

Fire, be my guide
Walk with me, burn with me,
join me in the stages of sacrifice
Fire, be my God
Bleed with me, perished be all
that they think is their paradise
I will deceive you, trapped in the fire ashore
My legs are broken, I can walk no more
I will reveal you, I will set you free
Fire in blindness, I will make you see
Bring to light our devilry
Bring to light the insanity
Deliver death to His majesty
Hell no! You can't pass through
The message will burn in the fire of The Majesty
Your voices will be kept down
Step down, you unholy creature
I'll let the sunlight wash your sins
Take aim, I frame, you blame me
for your broken crown
Holy God, I'm gonna stand my ground
Holy war, I'll never let you down
Holy God. Hell no! You can't pass through
the message will burn
Holy war, I'll never let you down

I will stand in shining white,
look down upon a grunting beast
I will praise my guardian angels,
I will let them join the feast
Fire, be my Son
Walk with me, talk with me, join me
in the stench of sacrifice
Fire, be my Daughter
Burn with me, perished be the lies

I stop just to catch my breath
I'm the first one to confess
Holy ground is no safe anymore
Rites of passage, rites of cleansing,
rites of absolution
Rites of sacrifice, rites of death,
rites of carnal bliss
Rites of passage, rites of cleansing,
rites of desperation
Rites of sacrifice, ride towards death,
rites of insanity
Why would I spare you? Why should I not fulfill?
I've come to accomplish The Majesty's will
I've come to accomplish The Majesty's will
Seen from above, eyes of the sparrow
I will love you forever, never let go
Trust roses and fairies
Beautiful voices singing in perfect harmony
Rip off the head of the statue of God
And paint their souls with ashes and blood
The crest of the damned is the sign of my path
I'm born as The First, I'll die as The Last

Tear down the statue of God
And paint their souls with blood
Become the aftermath
I am The First and The Last
Tear down the statue of God
And paint their souls with blood
Become the aftermath
I am The First and The Last
When it's all over we'll see who's standing tall
When the guilt is shattered, dark forces will fall
I am The Lie, I reside in the eyes of the fallen
I'm the Savior, but I will never die for your sins
I will never die for your sins
A chalice full of venom
Drink, my child, drink the wine
In heaven there is no haven

I'm godless through all times

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

Through centuries of darkness
You have walked towards the light
You will find no haven
You're God is non-divine, and so am I

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

I, divine or not divine, I live to see the light
I, divine or not divine, will always shine
Servants, you have served me all so well
Legions, you have scorched the Earth for me
Hey, servants! You're weak without your Master
Master - will you scorch the Earth for me?
Hey, Master! Your legions are out of circulation
Hey, Master! Light will shine upon your insanity

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

Gather the bringers of insanity
Bring to light our devilry
Feed us the sickening ways of morbidity

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

2. Behold As I Become The Great Cold Betrayer

[Solo: Mike Wead]

It's in my eyes, your blood is raining from the sky
I wonder why, I wonder why you had to die
I'm still alive, I'm still alive, I'm flying higher than the sky, I'm still alive

Evil spirit will not win, cannot win, shall not win
When the saints go marching in, marching in, marching in
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
When your death comes marching in
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
When the saints go marching in
Incinerate and recreate
You have brought this upon yourselves
Masticate and desolate
Sewn shut mouths with nothing to tell
Time has come to wear His crown
Blessed are they to be lied upon
Deny The Word, embrace the war
Celebrate the scorned

Rivers are dry, there is no water left
Blinded by visions of life after death
I think I'm going slightly mad
Ask forgiveness at my feet
Who are you to be the one to decide what I have done
Ask forgiveness at my feet
Who are you to sentence me
I don't believe in death penalty
Deletion of the light within
is a reason for mankind to sin
For I am Vengeance, the one you fear
Hear us summon darkness and despair
Through the gateways I guide the hordes
Prepare for eternal war
Finalizing the greater plan with the slaughter we bring to Man
Inside my beating heart lies grief
All of mankind is my disease
Consuming light and will to live
It's never too late to forgive
Heaven weeps tears of blood

They vanish in the sands of time
What once was yours will now be mine
The cries are futile
We've traveled down this path before
You are forgiven but not forlorn

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

My spit burns like acid in the eyes of The Traitor
I'm destined to ruin the work of your Creator
My spit burns like acid in the eyes of The Traitor
I'm destined to ruin the work of your Creator
Be one with the light of your Lord and Savior
Stand by his side, The Great Cold Betrayer
Your God is irrelevant, His kingdom's a farce
His paradise is obsolete, I am The Great Wrath
Paradise can be deceitful
Wasted hopes and buried dreams
Masquerades and broken hearts
Are buried in the halls of blasphemy
We are opposers of humanity,
the bringers of all light
The trumpets sound for the final call,
the victory is in sight
So reads our message, so reads our elegy
We revel in the afterglow of the purgatory ecatsay

There are no trumpets, no victory in sight
There is no laughter in the glory of the fight
The broken wings of passion must be repaired
There can be no grand rebirth as long as you are here

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

Listen to the heartbeat of the universe
I keep trying to fight but I'm cursed
Listen to the screaming voices in your soul
Raping my mind, raping my soul, gaining control
It cuts like a knife in my heart

I'm going back to the start
I have to reboot my soul
The only way to be whole
The war continues, peace diminished
Let me tell you, I can't breathe in
The Valley of Death
I gaze into the sky, this might be my last breath
The war continues, peace diminished, this is my last call
I can't breathe in The Valley of Death
I gaze into the sky, this might be my last breath
Ravishing vengeance, I am your downfall

A declaration of war for centuries to come
Our manifest of lunacy, our legions come at dawn
Behold the massacre in The House of God
You will never see your Savior reborn
You have been bleeding for me for far too long
It's time to resurrect what's long been gone
The eternal salvation and its bloodsoaked wrath
Heaving Earth, grotesque rebirth
The eternal redemption and its bloodsoaked wrath
Heaving Earth, undo the rebirth

[Solo: Lasse Johanssen]

One pair of footprints in the sand
You can still reach my hand
It's never too late to forgive
I'll give you one reason, all reasons to live
One pair of footprints in the sand
There used to be two pairs of footprints
I carry you in my open arms
One pair of footprints, my heart's beating
One pair of footprints, our hearts keep beating
'Til the end

3. You I Smite, Servant Of The Light

Vengeance and immortality
We spill your blood, let it all run free
I am the bearer of blasphemy
You are a God of nothing
I am the lie, I reside in the shadows behind
Becoming Judas, war coming through us
Dethroning Jehovah, you can't undo us
Parasite, you I smite, opposer of the light
I am Judas, you cannot fool us
Dethrone Jehovah, bleed Him through us
We are the lie, we reside in the shadows behind
I shall destroy your kind
Parasite, you I smite, defender of the light
I am eternal night
Annihilation, revelation, bring us all to life
Become the venom of Christ
Destroy Jehovah, make Him undone
There will be massive mental failure
Implosion of the universe, I become the storms
War seems inevitable
We have got to break the spell, undo the curse
I become the storms

In the eye of the storm, the sky is clear
I will be reborn, there's nothing left to fear
The sky is clear, the sky is clear,
there's nothing left to fear
It's a high price we have to pay
for the sake of our sins
Bleeding down the waterfalls of eternity
Try to stay above the surface of your own blood
And swim against the stream
I can hear myself screaming
You've got to row, row, row your boat downstream
We can still make it although we can't swim
Row, row, row your boat downstream
Down the waterfall, down the waterfall
Row, row, row your boat downstream
We can still make it although we can't swim
Row, row, row your boat downstream
Down the waterfall
Spewing forth my vengeance
We spill your blood, let it all run free
I am the carrion of godliness,
I am the God of everything
The gathering of the soulless,
all lying dead in my trails
I am the vulture of the fearless,
I am the God who never fails
Never take anything for granted
I am the unreliable factor
I can turn everything against you for I am the opposite reactor
Rejoice, redeem, repent, reborn

Preaching, preaching, I can't hear myself thinking
Silence, silence, I need silence to stop the violence
I become the storms
I travel on the wings of your storm
I'm fearless and newborn, I become the storms
Rejoice - and speak His name
Redeem - and become one
Repent - be one with shame
Reborn - The Bastard Son

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

You're preaching to deaf ears,
your lies are not heard here
I am the one you truly seek, Judas Incarnate
You're preaching to deaf ears,
your lies are not heard here
I am the one you fear to be, I am Legion

[Solo: Henrik Danhage]

I travel on the wings of your storm,
I'm naked and stillborn
I travel on the wings of your storm,
I'm naked and newborn

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

For every question I am the answer
For every Devil I am God
For every fire I am the water
For every desert I am the flood
If I die today there will be no tomorrow
If I die anyway, today is the day
Father, your time has now come
Creation be gone, you're dying alone
Emerging from chaos, darkness be with us
You're preaching to deaf ears,
your lies are not heard here
I am the one you truly seek, Judas Incarnate
You're preaching to deaf ears,
your lies are not heard here
I am the one you fear to be, I am Legion

When you fall asleep
and you close your eyes
Come with me take my hand
To the path less traveled
And follow the footprints in the sand
When you fall asleep
When you close your eyes
I'll carry you in my open heart
To a foreign land

I can still see footprints in the sand
I can still feel the warmth of your hand
I can hear heartbeats within
I can still feel the warmth of your skin
Can I hold you one more time?
Rest inside your mind, I'll give you all
Or is this goodbye?

I can still smell the burning of flesh
I can still sense it in the air
I can still feel it crawl on my skin
I can still taste it everywhere
I can still taste death on my lips
It is still inside my blood
I can still be your final regret
And I can still be your eternal love
Parasite, you I smite, servant of the light

4. Defy Those Words Of Who Was, Who Is, And Who Is To Come

Hold your fire! Turn around, turn around
You're intruding sacred ground, sacred ground
For all those who have died,
for the ones we have lost
We wade through the river of blood
By the end of this era you will all know my names
For it is Endless, Infernal, The Mighty Profane
The bloodriver is endless
The bloodriver is breathless
Into the river of blood I dive
I struggle between dead or alive
What if I die, no one can tell
The difference between heaven and hell
My tongue is split in two,
like the snake I have become
I lurk in the depths of the kingdom below
I am the kingdom below

Solo: Lasse Johansson

Dragged into a black hole
Blindfolded by mental pain
Everywhere I look
I see the world has gone insane
Oh God, I think I'm falling, can't stop
I'm coming all the way down
Down, down, down, down, down

The tide is rising, my world's colliding
But I can still breathe, I can still feel
The wind is rising, my life's capsizing
I prayed for wings with diamond rings
And here I am flying like a hurricane
I prayed for the things the Devil brings
I bow for none, I'm the Glorious Divine
The Phosphorus showing the way
Through centuries I will lead,
through centuries I will command
I rape The Promised Land
For Christ sake Lord, you stabbed me
with your sword, I can't believe I'm dying
It pierced right through and
there's nothing I can do
I spread my wings, I'm still flying
Serenity is pointless
after what you have done
The skin torn from angels is now my abode

I'm soaring high above the clouds
on diamond wings
And I'm in love with all the things I fear
All the dirt is washed away
Up and down, back and forth,
inside out, it's all real

I wake up to the sound of footsteps
marching on the ground
I'm in a shelter, but deadly wounded
Without a sound I turn around
Wake up, wake up!
It's time to wake up
And continue my mission
Wake up, wake up! It's time to wake up
and take my position

They will be one with the world
Where I conquer all
Thy kingdom is burning in perpetual flames
I corrupt, I kill, I enslave
The Garden of Eden is a garden for heathens
I burn in perpetual flames
The Garden of Eden is a garden for heathens
Defy those words of who was, who is,
and who is to come

Solo: Lasse Johansson

It's in the air, so much hatred and despair
Pulsing fiercely underneath
mankind's eternal grief

I know your words, Ye Of The Earth
Defy those words of who was, who is,
and who is to come
I know your works
Defy those words of who was, who is,
and who is to come
Come, come knock on my door
I will attack and settle the score
Come, come, I'm having fun
I'll rip you to pieces so you'd better run
Or burn here with me for all eternity
I bow for none, I'm The Devious Divine
The Serpent Man leading your kind
The hooved beast who's misleading you
I am The Promised Land

The wind is rising, the wind is rising
The wind is rising, the wind is rising
A new day coming, there's still hope
There's still hope for mankind

5. Into The Mouth Of Belial

Face to face with my enemy
Face to face with my remedy
I see the outcome of what you did
I am the act that God forbid
Stare into the abyss
and feel its wrath engulf you
Forever marching forwards
through blackened tribulations
Hooves and sulfur in perfect orchestration
The day of darkness grants us
the massive devastation

Your madness is your weakness
The time has come to confess
The violence and disproportionate wrath
Has turned into a total mess
Evil minded creatures
wrapped around my finger
Suit yourself if you can't resist me
I can catch your filthy soul
in the palm of my hand
This is where I stand, kill me if you can
You have come to take what I have to offer
In a world of sheep
I'm the wearer of wolf's skin
I speak to your sons and daughters
The gospel of the horns,
the flesh and all sins

I open the door to anybody out there
Welcome to no man's land
Just for one day, just for today
No more killing if you're willing
to accept my wish
No more killing ground, no more death around
No more killing ground, just for one day
No more killing ground, no more death around
No more killing ground, so come what may

I have crossed the border
I will cross the border again and again
Where insanity reigns and darkness is eternal
I am King, The One Superior
You double crossed the light
and let the high priest consume you
Surgery of the soul. It's too late, can't wait
Surgery of the soul
Close your eyes and let this priestess seduce you
Surgery of the soul, execution the only solution
Surgery of the soul
Bearer of plagues - I will be your bearer of chaos
Bearer of death - You will be my bearer of pain

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

Light will shine through darkness
Chaos is my order, ashes to ashes
Du kommer aldrig bli förläten
I feel it's time to kill and now I know
I'll punish every man, I am the fire below
Light will be my darkness, blood will be my water
In ashes I will perish, du kommer aldrig bli förläten
I am the fire below
In ashes I will perish, du kommer aldrig bli förläten
Hands are tied, lips are blue
The vows you gave are no longer true
Marching on the brink of extinction
Gasping for air while searching for you

Everything is everything, this war is so devastating
Born to live, born to die
The bond that is between us we can't deny
I deal in pain and mass destruction
We must regain The Plague Attraction
I burn in Hell with all the others
I will be the answer that matters

The bridge you cross I will burn with pride
The everlasting fire is where you'll die
Mourn me not, for you know what's to come
When all is said and all is burnt,
my mission here is done
The mother of all whores,
abominations of the Earth
Filthiness and precious death
is brought down with His birth
Glorified in harlotry, unclean, ravished, divine
I am the Beast and your flesh is mine
No way, this is not okay
Keep your filthy hands off of my dignity
Everything is everything
This war is so devastating
Life to death, death to me
Your pain is everything, now I see

You try to tell me you can save me
You curse the Devil, I'm his lady
You're like me, you'll to become this horror
We can be in union with each other
No weapon that is formed against me shall prosper
And every tongue that rise against me I'll condemn
This is the heritage of the servants of the dark
And the righteousness is in me
You make me laugh, you make me cry
You make me wish that you will die
I can't be free while you're around
I'm going back to solid ground

I've tried so hard to catch the rainbow
The more I try, the less I see
I'm going to quit trying
I'm going to rest my tired feet
I've come to this final conclusion
As long as I bleed, I am free

[Solo: Henrik Danhage]

Only one last prey in my wildest dreams
No one's going to turn me around
I can't hold back my feelings no longer
I've traveled too far, I can't let this one slip out
of my fingers, can't let go

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

6. The Gospel Of The Flesh And All His Sins

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

Nightmares and horror visions abandon all hope
My body's hanging from a burning rope
Waiting for my time to come, let creation be undone
I'm facing down, my mouth is full of blood
But I'm not dead yet, I'm not dead yet
Time to watch me give my life for you and your dead
You have signed my grave, made me your slave
I am Hell, I'm inside you,
forever from this day I am the way

You're on your knees, your eyes cry blood
You seek forgiveness, now where's your God?
The serpents gather, dethrone The Father
Redemption is nowhere to be found
First resurrection, then second death
Admire the fornication for she will not repent
The birth of King Serpent, The Stillborn, our chaos
I know thy words of those who've betrayed us

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

Fight 'til you drop, fight 'til they stop
Don't be afraid, it's their time to pay
Out of the ashes, my flesh is warm
I rise like a Phoenix, once again I'm reborn

The tide is turning, the moon cast its spell
Law of nature seems in order for a while
We are drawn to each other
by the laws of Mother Nature
We can fight against each other
But in the search on the verge, we will merge
Left, left, left, right, left
I'm going to sneak up from behind
Left, left, left, right, left
And take what's rightfully mine
Left, left, left, right, left
What did I just say? Who can it be?
Left, left, left, right, left
Something's taking over me
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
Searching, searching, I'm still searching
I know that you're out there lurking
Left, left, left, right, left
Show yourself, I have you surrounded
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
There's no way out
Left, left, left, right, left
Left, left, left, right, left
HALT!

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

They shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God
Spitting lies in the face of the fallen
Blaspheme his name, Ye Of The Earth
Welcome centuries of torment, welcome our death

The Earth will rest after the war
It's scourged and deeply sore

King of kings, lord of lords
Slain and conquered, all forlorn

You shall all fear me and glorify my name
For I am Sin Incarnate, the last burning flame
I scorch the Earth with fire, with fire I am one
I burn the holy scripture, your Savior is undone
Burning, keep burning, keep burning, burning
You will burn in your own flames
Burning, keep burning
Queen of queens, whore of whores
Saved and slaughtered, denied, reborn

Save me from this darkness I've been dragged into
I made a promise that no Savior will come true
You open your mouths and curse this day
Bless this day
Rejoice in massacre, demons awake
I'm awake, I'm awake
Hear their prayers, feed their dismay
See me betray, I shall not be, you are not me

[Solo: Lasse Johansson]

Cast all fear aside, eyes are open wide
The only way down this road
Is to merge my divinity
with your insanity and implode

Here is nothing but war
Feel my wrath, hear me roar
For this I've come, for this shall be mine
There is no Earth I will leave unscorched
We're running out of time, we're running out of time
What's rightfully yours is now mine
And what's mine, we can no longer define
Coe join me for a dance, one last dance
Help me, use your fire
Help me, with my desire
There is no Earth I will leave unscorched
