1.	Transcranial Drill 04:33	lyrics	buy track
Blindfolded, you can't see a thing It's your last time Before you go underground The sands of time Are running low for you Welcome to your private hell You don't have the slightest clue 'Bout the horrific torture That awaits you Begging for mercy No one can help There's no escape You're going to hell The drill is pushing Through your eyes and your brain Your flesh is slowly pierced An agonizing pain Transcranial drill Strap your head to the torture device Pray not for mercy, there's no use See the drill heading for your eyes You want to run but you can't break loose Your eyes are pierced You scream in pain The drill is pushing further Through your eyes I'm drilling forward right to your brain No one can hear your desperate cries The drill is pushing Through your eyes and your brain Your flesh is slowly pierced An agonizing pain Transcranial drill [Solo Vlad] [Solo Theo]
2.	Power Corrupts 06:31	lyrics	buy track
[Solo Vlad] This world is rotten By empty words And smart men rule The stupid poor We give them power In them we trust But we get lies and famine In exchange for that [Solo Vlad] Incompetent people Will pull our strings And with their bad decisions Our lives will cease Corruption is A deadly sin Fighting for truth We have to win [Solo Vlad] [Solo Theo] Freedom, stolen from us A hidden slavery Greed, hungry for power Their lies we will devour Power, in the wrong hands They must go down Justice, it will be done Served with a gun

Nuclear warheads Are reviving from the rust Falsehood peace and lots of treaties In those we cannot trust Red clouds choke the sky The humans will succumb Our nation stands at DEFCON 1 A nuclear war will come [Solo Vlad] The war is colder Than it has ever been before A nuclear holocaust Is hiding behind the door One push of a button Will start a new world war The battle between Mark and Tsar Will destroy the Earth to its core The stage is set The superwar begins One minute 'till midnight The apocalypse begins No one will survive This nuclear holocaust The shadow of men will be gone From the face of the Earth When the clock strikes midnight Hell will rise from below Threatening the universe The whole earth will blow [Solo Vlad] [Solo Theo]
4.	Entombed Alive 08:41	lyrics	buy track
[Solo Vlad] You are caged inside A shallow grave Lost within yourself And you are standing still Waiting for The agony to end Your nails are digging in the dirt You shout but you cannot be heard This hell will now become your world Your body now becomes your grave The chains of death are holding tight You cannot win this losing fight Trapped in the void Entombed alive Entombed alive This body is The place where you'll be lost Alone, forgotten you remain Defined by pain Incapable to live Your dreams will always be the same You cry but silence still remains You slowly start to grow insane You try to wake but it's in vain Body's aching full of pain Feeling death calling your name Trapped in the void Entombed alive [Solo Vlad] [Solo Theo]
5.	Gods Among Men 05:26	lyrics	buy track
Deep within the roots Of the frail human life Essence is reborn DNA we'll rewrite Finding the ones That are able to resist The genetic surgery That makes dying obsolete Despair, you weaklings Cower in fear We are gods among men Your end is near We conquered mortality We spat in its face The rest shall fear Death they'll embrace A new formula for the Life that we made No place for the weak No fear of death No more What chance have you With your vulnerable flesh? How can your minds grasp What we achieved today? An endless life we'll be granted Our weaknesses we'll shed The future lays at our feet No prayer for the dead Despair, you weaklings Cower in fear We are gods among men Your end is near We conquered mortality We spat in its face The rest shall fear Death they'll embrace A new formula for the Life that we made No place for the weak No fear of death [Solo Theo] Immortals, put our name to the test Worship us, we're not like the rest No defeat, can't see through our chest [Solo Vlad] [Solo Vlad]
6.	King Of Hypocrisy 05:07	lyrics	buy track
I see you drinking all night and day Talking loud, but you've got nothing to say Your poisonous presence fills up the air You're taking pride in saying you don't care Think you're glitching the system but you don't matter at all Responsibility's ringing but you don't answer the call You're acting like you are a super-star An attention prick, that's what you are! [Solo Theo] Talking much, but only of yourself Goofing around, until you're dead Never accept what you really are Keep calling for help, no one will come The king of hypocrisy has just been crowned! Selling lies, we know you're full of shit A dose of reality is what you'll need I'm sick of the parody you represent Prepare to go down, it's time to meet your end Your rotting mouth keeps on babbling again You're overusing your only brain cell It's obsolete arguing with you I'll smash your teeth in, that's what I'm gonna do! [Solo Theo] A piece of trash feeding on the sympathy Of the ones that you trick into believing That you're a big shot, but I know who you are Just a clown, not worth my time The king of hypocrisy has just been crowned! [Solo Vlad]
7.	Affliction 03:10	lyrics	buy track
Late at night I pray 'Till the dawn of day For a prey to jump For my heart to pump The blood in my veins 'Till nothing remains I feel a burning desire To get my soul on fire Time to roll the dice Addiction Speeding on burnt ice I sharpen my claws I ready my veins Point the needle, get my dose Oh, to feel that sweet pain True stalker at core We hunger for more For you see my addiction Ain't some common affliction Something I can't change Addiction Escape's not in my range [Solo Vlad] [Solo Theo] [Solo Vlad] [Solo Theo] [Solo Vlad] [Solo Theo] Affliction Time to roll the dice Addiction Speeding on burnt ice Affliction Something I can't change Addiction Escape's not in my range
8.	As The Crows Stare 05:37	lyrics	buy track
In a forgotten bowl of dust All the good things turned to rust Man made a total misery All nature lives in agony Mother earth is fed up with The atrocities the humans did A total cleansing needs to be done For all the pests need to be gone [Solo Vlad] As the crows stare Man vanishes into thin air Catastrophic A new beginning for a new born land Tsunamis to wash the land clean Earthquakes to eat what we built Tornadoes to toss our trash Our existence will be gone in a flash From sea, sky and from beneath Upon the earth the turmoil heats Nature strikes, unleashing it's wrath Chaos emerging, life turns to death We brought this upon ourselves Our paradise turns into hell Ashes to ashes, dust to dust There will be nothing left for us [Solo Vlad] As the crows stare Man vanishes into thin air Catastrophic A new beginning for a new born land Tsunamis to wash the land clean Earthquakes to eat what we built Tornadoes to toss our trash Our existence will be gone in a flash [Solo Theo] As the crows stare Man vanishes into thin air Catastrophic A new beginning for a new born land Tsunamis to wash the land clean Earthquakes to eat what we built Tornadoes to toss our trash Our existence will be gone in a flash
9.	The End Of Tyranny 01:37	lyrics	buy track
This world is rotten by empty words... In a society called "The World", approximately 7 billion people Are hit by wrath, by greed, are subjected to deceit And often find themselves the target of misfortune and mistrust! In a world governed by hypocrisy, there is no soul alive Who hasn't tasted this corruption! When Wrath meets Pride face to face Certain doom spells over humanity once their hands shake And when the alarm rings true a new holocaust, it is not a drill. But what happens if we rattle their cages, If we force them to kill their egos and cast a mist over their scheme? When the rhythm of life finds power once more And the tempo of their downfall accelerates? They think themselves as Gods, they thinks themselves As immortals who stare at a dying world, An affliction that comes from their own thirst of everlasting power And ephemeral human ties. Where simple folk claim the lead And their voice echoes across time and space? Power Corrupts no longer!

Danger, danger The queen's about to kill Stranger, stranger Life's about to spill! Oh no, move me out of harm I need a spell and a charm And fly like the wind No pawn, be gone, speed on, and on Kill the king Tear him down! Kill the king Oh, strike him down Power, power Happens everyday Power, devour All along the way Oh no, move me out of harm I need a spell and a charm And fly like the wind No pawn, be gone, speed on, and on Kill the king!
