| Yesterday is dead and gone |
|---|
The fire's inside us tonight
These bridges will burn so bright
Tomorrow there's no life
No more power 's chains
Reaching for the life beyond
We will rise to the dark again
Ready to fight for what we believe to be right
Yesterday is dead and gone
[Pre-Chorus]
Breaking the chains
Shaking the cage
Heed our war cry
Let there be no doubt
We walked out
This is reckoning time
[Chorus]
We are standing in the flames
Reaching for the sky
Fight to the end
Yesterday is dead and gone
Under a blood red sky
Our voice will be heard
In a world
Where compassion is lost
You try to control us
This is so absurd
Freedom will be won at any cost
[Pre-Chorus]
Breaking the chains
Shaking the cage
Heed our war cry
Let there be no doubt
We walked out
This is reckoning time
[Chorus]
We are standing in the flames
Reaching for the sky
Fight to the end
Yesterday is dead and gone...
...Yesterday is dead and gone...
[Pre-Chorus]
Breaking the chains
Shaking the cage
Hear our war cry
Let there be no doubt
We walked out
This is reckoning time...
...This is reckoning time...
...Yesterday is dead and gone...

| War eternal |
|---|
Friend or foe there's no way to know
In the battlefield of life its kill or be killed.
So many times its a matter of degrees
From being up on your luck to down on your knees.
Its a hellish inferno
This is war eternal.
They try to change you, crush and break you.
Try to tell you what to do
They love to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are.
It's time like these when lines are drawn
Which side of the fence you are standing on?
There will come a day not so far away
When the hunter becomes the prey (and you will pay).
Its a hellish inferno
This is war eternal.
They try to change you, crush and break you.
Try to tell you what to do
They love to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are.
This is fucking war!
They try to change you, crush and break you.
Try to tell you what to do
They love to have control of you
Back against the wall
In danger of losing it all
Search deep inside
Remember who you are.

| Ravenous |
|---|
I am hunting for your soul
It dwells within your heart
I lacerate the pounding flesh
Your spirits shall be mine
So rise my spirit rise!
Revel in this dead mans' body
Grip his soul, sip the blood
Life is death
A holy carnage
Ravenous
I will be god
Carnivorous Jesus
I need your flesh
Ritual slaughter
Fill up the chalice
With the essence of your life
Liquid strengths
Trapped in your veins
I crave your blood
You must die!

| Stolen life |
|---|
Everything so clear now
It's written on your face
In a world within a world
I can smell the bridges burn
Sharks ever circling
They never go away
In these dark, murky waters
So hard to navigate and so easy to hate
Paint me black, demonize me, this is how you pay me back?
Do you ever really know someone until you look away?
Misplaced my trust, only to learn...honesty is just a word
This is a stolen life
Before you walk away
Don't forget to turn the knife
What's next, more betrayal?
Have I not suffered enough?
You made me feel so alive
Now you're just killing me killing me
Carve away the rotten flesh
It's time to burn
Strip away the dirty lies
Expose the ugly truth...

| My apocalypse |
|---|
Sudden implosion of silenced emotions
Buried beneath a scarred heart for too long
Delusions of hope fading away
Dying like leaves on frozen soil
My apocalypse is near
I can feel the end... Coming here
Neglecting existence, repulse and repent
An endless journey into the morbid
Whispering voices distorting all senses
Buried beneath a scattered heart for all too long
My apocalypse is near
I can feel the end... Coming here
The bitter taste of a dying dream
Shine the light on our shadows and illusions

| You will know my name |
|---|
The judging eyes watching me
The judging eyes watching me
It's all I've ever known.
When I tried to open up my heart
I am ridiculed and torn apart.
You tell jokes I'll never get to hear
Behind my back at my expense.
There's something inside me
And I know it's good.
I'm not evil, just misunderstood.
Do you see me now?
Do you hear me now?
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you fear me now?
You will know my name!
To try to break my silence
Strip you of your dignity.
Tear down your perfect world
Your perfect lies!
No more jokes I'll never get to hear
Behind my back at my expense.
There's something inside me
And I know it's good.
I'm not evil, just misunderstood.
Do you see me now?
Do you hear me now?
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you fear me now?
You will know my name!
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you hear me now?
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you fear me now?
You will know my name!
You will know my name!
It's all I've ever known.
When I tried to open up my heart
I am ridiculed and torn apart.
You tell jokes I'll never get to hear
Behind my back at my expense.
There's something inside me
And I know it's good.
I'm not evil, just misunderstood.
Do you see me now?
Do you hear me now?
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you fear me now?
You will know my name!
To try to break my silence
Strip you of your dignity.
Tear down your perfect world
Your perfect lies!
No more jokes I'll never get to hear
Behind my back at my expense.
There's something inside me
And I know it's good.
I'm not evil, just misunderstood.
Do you see me now?
Do you hear me now?
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you fear me now?
You will know my name!
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you hear me now?
You will know my name!
Do you see me now?
Do you fear me now?
You will know my name!
You will know my name!

Gripping you start to believe
All danger trust
In the end there is no relief

You're breeding thorns

Thy honour truth in humanity

| Under black flags we march |
|---|
Your hate is our trigger
Revolution now
The more we have to suffer
The more we will fight
With Our Fists up in the air!
Legions marching - Ready to fire
These streets will burn - Let the black flag rise
Legions marching - Ready to fire
Empires of corruption - Crash and fall
Under black flags we march...
The voice of rebellion - Calls your name
Servants of the truth - Are standing tall
With Our Fists up in the air!
Legions marching - Ready to fire
These streets will burn - Let the black flag rise
Legions marching - Ready to fire
Empires of corruption - Crash and fall
[Harmony lead - Michael & Christopher]

| As the pages burn |
|---|
As the pages burn
secrets can't be unlearned
Silence can't be unheard... Knowledge is burden
power is onus as the pages burn
Rejecting cognition as the pages turn
sinking in a pool of either
the past is washed clean
Rip apart the world
word by word
inch by inch
Sever your timeline
silence your conscience
[Chorus:]
Sweet amnesia here to free you
as the pages burn (burn!)
All you trials solved bye fire
as the pages burn
As smoke fills the room soon to pass... heavy gloom
The wind will whisk away the past
a blank page stares at you
Nothing left
where to start?
A second chance carries expectation!
The books you'd written no longer exist
The future is in your pen
ink to paper now begin
Rip apart the world
word by word
inch by inch
Sever your timeline
silence your conscience!
[Chorus:]
Sweet amnesia here to free you
as the pages burn (burn!)
All you trials solved bye fire
as the pages... burn!
Rewriting history
starting now!
Erase the misery
Let the flames eat your doubts
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus:]
Sweet amnesia here to free you
as the pages burn (burn!)
All you trials solved bye fire
as the pages... burn!
[Solo Guitar]

| Dead eyes see no future |
|---|
Giving our blood
To the doomsday machine
Fighting for ravaged land
A worthless gain
Marching on a dead end road
A violent new disorder
Feeding off mistrust
Forgot what we were fighting for
A worthless aim
A victory stinking of despair
Dead eyes
See no future
Falling from grace
We are coming home
Battalions of hate
Seeking shelter in hell
Bloodstained memories
Will we ever be forgiven
Our twisted fate
Time will tell
|
|
| Avalanche |
|---|
A fistful of fear in my hands
A bullet of betrayal in my brain
No progress comes from pleasure
We smile in ignorance and learn in pain
Willful deceit was your plan
Desperately avoid the blame
Who will you answer to now?
Sharpened your shovels
Just to dig your grave
Stand up because the ground is in your way
I won't give you any piece
Yet still you talk
Try to fight but I will watch you fall
Fall
This is sweet revenge
And karma's a bitch
You glutton for punishment
What did you expect?
Sick, sick, sick
I'm sick of being your martyr
Your inglated ego is just dead weight
Bask in all the eyes upon you
Before you know it
The'll have turned away
Stand up as the whole world turns away
I won't give you any peace
Yet still you talk
Try to fight but I will watch you fall
Fall
This is sweet revenge
And karma's a bitch
You glutton for punishment
What did you expect?
Wait and see
Cry yourself a lonesome creek
Your decaying corpse
Can feed the roots
Of my towering free
Just wait and see
You're dead to me
Yet still you speak
Trying to justify what you're doing to me
I will watch you fall
Fall
This is sweet revenge
And karma's a bitch
You glutton for punishment
What did you
What did you expect?

| No gods, no masters |
|---|
Here I am, back to the wall,
I picked the fight against the time,
Free at last I go my own way,
I will resist them, till the day I die,
I am who I am; my time has come.
I am who I am, take it or leave it,
A rebel at heart,
No gods, no masters,
My time has come.
There is no second place,
No perfect world,
Your head is whole,
Freedom in your heart,
Be strong; take this chance,
Make your way; a better future comes.
I am who I am; my time has come.
I am who I am, take it or leave it,
A rebel at heart,
No gods, no masters,
My time has come.
No gods, no masters.
What doesn’t kill us make us stronger.
Locked and loaded ready to strike,
You stand loud and proud, united as one.
I am who I am, take it or leave it,
A rebel at heart,
No gods, no masters,
My time has come.

| We will rise |
|---|
Tear down the walls
Wake up the world
Ignorance is not bliss
So fed up with second best
Our time is here and now
I am the enemy
I am the antidote
Watch me closely
I will stand up - now
We will rise
Rise above
Stereotype Fools
Playing the game
Nothing unique
They all look the same
In this sea of mediocrity
I can be anything
Anything I want to be
We will rise

| Nemesis |
|---|
We walk this Earth
With fire in our hands
Eye for an eye
We are Nemesis
We are with you
Countless vicious souls
Fight! - Fighting for freedom
United we stand
We are legion
Voice of anarchy
This is revolution
Creating new disorder
We are enemy
Opponent of the system
Crushing hypocrisy
Slaying the philistine
One for all - All for one
We are strong - We are one
Nemesis
A malicious fever burns
In our hearts, In our veins
Your blood, My blood
All blood runs the same

| Fields of desolation |
|---|
On the fields of desolation
We are all alone
Crying in each others arms
In fear of the unknown
Feelings of uncertainty
We are all doomed
To live in solitude
And never ending gloom
On the fields of desolation
Eternal life or termination
Why don't you cover me
I need your sanctuary
This sea I'm drowning in
Might be where the end begins
In times of grief and sadness
We're searching for the light
Seek for a place of safety
Seek for a place to hide
God turned his back on man
In divine resignation
Torn between two believes
Eternal life or termination?
As we drown in darkness
Weak and depraved
On our final journey
Too late to be saved
We've gone through places
Where the cold wind blows
Is this the end of it all
I don't know, I don't know
[Pre-chorus melodies - Michael]
[End solo - Christopher]
