Do you remember that night On our backs in the grass Shaping the stars to fit our path You began to change But I ignored the signs The cold autumn air A reminder of better times You aren’t the person that I once knew I don’t recognize this version of you Do you remember that night? Is it still in your mind? Or did you burn it away With your memories? In your soul is an empty pain Something just isn’t the same It’s a voice in the void beckoning A reminder of better days I can’t stand this obsession Suffocating under the weight I just want to make my escape As I watch your life take shape But I can’t cope with the thought Of your existence without me in it My silent scorn hidden away My hollow feelings on display As he spoke I heard his voice shake I could feel his pain as he spoke of the heartache And when she reared her fangs I begged him to stay But he was in too deep trying to find his way No assistance as he ran her maze Why won’t he listen to me what is this disease? Do you remember that night? Is it still in your mind? Or did you burn it away With your memories? In your soul is an empty pain Something just isn’t the same It’s a voice in the void beckoning a reminder of better days

Haunted by hells monsters seeking my soul traded through demonic sacrifice. I was a pawn in your unending quest to hold ultimate power and might. torn from the bowel of this unholy rite and branded by the mark of the dead. Broken and weak but revenge i now seek. just know this; I will soon have your head. Once, you trained me to be strong, fighting side by side, as brothers in arms. Once, the legion that you served, your fervor in their hearts, our name known far and wide. Now, our spirits cast below, eternally in pain, forgotten to the world. Now, I walk between the plane, of underworld and earth, fighting for my life Sleepless nights, a torturous plight, with no end in sight holding my blade, a satanic raid, the beasts are then slayed the crimson red flies, my rage pacifies, as they have all died Peace is made, as the corpses fade, their feast is delayed your, disciples prey upon, the mortals of this realm, consuming flesh and bone ghouls ,have given up their souls, reprisal for their strength, to rule over the weak I, shall hunt these monsters down, the trail of bodies lead, me closer to your throne Soon, your reign of terror ends, my vengeance shall be met, one day ill see you bleed I Shall Not Yield My Hate Burns Strong You Shall Not Win I Will Kill You I Shall Not Yield My Hate Burns Strong You Shall Not Win I Will Kill You Haunted by hells monsters seeking my soul traded through demonic sacrifice. I was a pawn in your unending quest to hold ultimate power and might. torn from the bowel of this unholy rite and branded by the mark of the dead. Broken and weak but revenge i now seek. just know this; I will soon have your head your, disciples prey upon, the mortals of this land, consuming flesh and bone ghouls ,have given up their souls, reprisal for their strength, to rule over the weak I, shall hunt these monsters down, the trail of bodies lead, me closer to your throne Soon, your reign of terror ends, my vengeance shall be met, one day ill see you bleed I Shall Not Yield My Hate Burns Strong You Shall Not Win I Will Kill You I Shall Not Yield My Hate Burns Strong You Shall Not Win I Will Kill You

The Tragedy 05:38
In the eyes of a child, innocence is reconciled But these monsters walk the earth, taking human form Rotting deep within their soul, their hollow body never whole And where they go, demons follow in a frenzied swarm your crime against humanity, you took a child’s life hatred filling up your heart and soul in rife no way to silence the demons, no way to subside There is no turning back now, you cannot run and hide Fucking Coward Fucking Coward Fucking Coward Fucking Coward So full of life, a kindred soul Something that he could never know No love, in the barrel of a gun no second thought as he stole his chance of growing up At times I still feel numb When I think of what he’s done Because I knew what he would become become More of a man than he’ll ever be And now it’s something we’ll never see because of this violent treachery He created this Tragedy Blegh creeping down your spine It’s now your time to turn the gun on yourself and end life Creeping… Down your spine Its now your time This Nightmare infects your dreams When you close your eyes its all you see but he still shines, within those eyes you carry his legacy At times I still feel numb When I think of what he’s done Because I knew what he would become Become More of a man than he’ll ever be And now it’s something we’ll never see because of this violent treachery He created this Tragedy And May he find rest Where there’s no pain, no death Without a breathe A place of innocence A place of happiness A place where he can rest his head

Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead, the plague has risen Behold the rot and take ahold of them Stench of decay, they wither away Witness the end, Armageddon No escape from the Bubonic plague Flesh necrotized, as the fevers spike Blood is released until they are deceased This vicious disease, continues to feast You can’t fight it anymore As your body fills with sores The Black death takes control Life will be no more Putrescent air The stench of death Bodies blistered With nothing left Putrescent air The stench of death Bodies blistered With nothing left Burn away the decay And hope to end the dismay We are victims of the plague We are victims of the plague Its get’s worse with each passing day Bodies buried in shallow graves We are victims of the plague We are victims of the plague The plague takes hold of the world we know Infecting the young and killing them all The doctors can’t help they only record The bodies they find before they are burned The death rattle in the voices of those As they start their repose all inches from their own demise The remnants as life leaves their eyes This pestilent sea, in which they drown And in the ashes, they all fall down This is the call With each dying breath Bring out your dead Bring out your dead! This is the call With each dying breath Bring out your dead Bring out your dead! Burn away the decay And hope to end the dismay We are victims of the plague We are victims of the plague Its get’s worse with each passing day Bodies buried in shallow graves We are victims of the plague We are victims of the plague Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead Bring out your dead

A hopeless gaze stares through bloodshot eyes No sleep in days, No tears left to cry Twisted nightmare, shaking from the rage Trust is broken, Never knowing Haunted by it, face still clear as day Can't unsee it there is no escape Violation of your purity “just embrace it, you'll enjoy it” Such a precious thing torn away A fraction of yourself Fragile And delicate torn away without warning By someone you once loved How will you carry on All you feel is shame A curse upon your name You've never felt so betrayed Than the day you were raped Fighting with all your might Sheets are imprisoning desperate for help but there's no one to hear your plee Vicious attack from this vile person Restrained and covered up, instrument of desire No escape now as your essence is torn away Violation and there's no end in sight Close your eyes Picture their demise No more cries Take back your life Close your eyes Picture their demise No more cries This is where they die Suffering will come and take these monsters Living to destroy the lives of others Forcing themselves in to take their essence Ripping their souls away for their cleansing Dragged to the pits for their hellish torture The hands of fate they will show no remorse Soon they will fade away through the abyss A fitting end for a violent rapist The world will be cleansed It's time for their death The hour is at hand They will all meet their end
