1. Nothin' Left
Cold sweat in nightmares
The desolate one.
Deceived by betrayers
Alone in a crystal ball,
All hopes are shattered dreams
Through the lens of a neon screen,
The hourglass is sifting
Terminal from the final incision,
SEND SIGNALS to Space
BURNED BRIDGES too late
The loner is rising
Beware... I've Nothing Left
Nothing left...
A silhouette of disfigured
Transparent hypocrisies
A cry through sullen walls
I laugh with despise
Running through the corridor
I've opened the door
The hourglass is sifting
Trying to heal from the final
SEND SIGNALS to Space
BURNED BRIDGES too late
The loner is rising
Beware... I've Nothing Left
Nothing left...
SEND SIGNALS to Space
BURNED BRIDGES too late
The loner is rising
Beware... I've Nothing Left
Nothing left...
My lips are cracked from the heat
In the desert of pain,
The sandstorm cracks my feet
Getting over the storm,
The crystal balls' open highway
Has opened the door.
In my climb I'm like a mirror
Your reflection shatters on you
Nothin' left...
2. The Unexpected
3. The Day at Guyana
4. Never Surrender
They spit in your eye
You'll never retreat�
You resist their attack
We await the command�
Together we stand
With mace In our hands�
The comet burns bright�
The Age is at hand...
They'll kidnap your child
Dishonor your creed�
You�re clenching your fists
Your hammer�s up high...
I'll finish the war
And even the score ...
Barbaric approach
Their intent to destroy...
Sweat drips from your
Their kiss of Judas
(chorus) DON'T GIVE IN NEVER SURRENDER
DON'T GIVE IN NEVER SURRENDER
As Orion burns
All Race and Planets collide
Through vengeance Command
The troops drawing near...
As destiny stands
The tactics are clear
Relinquish the fear
The conquest is near�
The comet burns bright
The Age is at hand...
(chorus) DON'T GIVE IN NEVER SURRENDER
DON'T GIVE IN NEVER SURRENDER
(harmony solo)
They spit in your eye
You'll never retreat�
You resist their attack
We await the command�
Together we stand
With mace in our hands�
The comet burns bright�
The Age is at hand...
5. Mad Locust Rising
Their mating has started, there's no way to stop them,
Brushed by the wings of the King, Nostradamus
Thundering black of the swarms are upon us
The cup of the wrath, the winepress of death
The whore and the beast, are having a feast
On mankind and his weakness
The scabs of the lustful, the womb is distrustful
Subsiding with pain, The Abyss
A small open country with wide open fields
The Villagers run from the pain that they yield
The bite of the locust, the witchdoctor's potion
The curse of the insect's infection
Deceit is upon us, the sores that won't heal
The signs they're preparing are being revealed
They fly in a pack, prepare for attack
Carnivorously lusting your flesh
Flying, striking spreading their wings
There's no denying their presence
The prophecy's done, they warned us they'd come
Soon they'll be coming for you
The battle is won, but losing the war, 'Geddon is so very near
They've broken the seal, their coming for you... ATTACK
Locust and Plagues, Locust and Plagues
Locust and Plagues, Locust and Plagues
The Mad Locust Rising, revealing his wings
Preparing to fly once again
Soon others like him will rise up and fight
ATTACK, the bloody command
The Swarm's moving north will attack destroy
Cities and Kingdoms we've built
Slashing, Chomping the ends of the Earth
They seek to recapture the child
Across te waters the swarm moving closer
Their destination unknown
Commanded by vengeance with blood thirsty teeth
The blood of the Martyr's they shield
The woman repents, but still she is spent
There's no hiding guilt once brushed by the wings
The threshold of fate, the furnace of pain
It's waiting for you, the coming of Locust and plagues
6. The Ripper
You're in for surprise
You're in for a shock, ahh
In London town streets
When there's darkness and fog
When you least expect me
And you turn your back
I'll attack
I smile when I'm sneaking
Through shadows by the wall
I laugh when I'm creeping
But you won't hear me at all
All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper
You'll soon shake with fear
Never knowing if I'm near
I'm sly and I'm shameless, nocturnal and nameless
Except for the ripper
Or if you like "Jack the knife"
Any back alley street
Is where we'll probably meet
Underneath a gas lamp
Where the air's cold and damp
I'm a nasty surprise
I'm a devil in disguise
I'm a footstep at night
I'm a scream of the fright
All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper
The ripper
The ripper
7. Evil Eye/Evil Minds
The night sheads it's cold mist on luminous streets
The revenge that you seek will all come back to you
Do you know what you've done?
No justice was won
Exaulted will be who were trampled upon
There will come a time when judgement is near
The black cloud above you is clear
Love for your enemies, forgiveness you must
Instead you want locusts and plagues
A better world we can build for us all
The simple factor is life
Search for the answer it's inside of you
Your heart should anchor the rest
Evil eye...
Evil minds!
Now Armageddon is bringing you down to you knees
Fighting the ways of the truth there's no way to win
Hypocrisy festers in those who believe but decieved
What you do unto others, others will do unto you
Accepting my paybacks how long will it take
To show my intention was real
This world that we walk in is full os mistreaters
Who strip your heart, mind and soul
Your lust for revenge selfishness right
You're doing it all of spite
The things that are taken without justfull reasons
Will someday come back to me
Evil eye...
Your lust for revenge selfishness right
You're doing it all out of apite
The things that are taken without justfull reasons
Will someday come back to me
Evil eye...
Evil minds!
8. Bleed for the Godz
Mid-day heat is low
Sun torches victims skin
Priests rise to command
Blood spills the altar stairs
Sacrifice to their gods
Sun sets the slaves all die
The hearts of humans left to dry
Burnt offerings to the sky
Temples built for priests with high
Messages and desperate dries
A message from a higher place
Condemning all your human race
Cowards run the rest await
Pious-virgin congragate
Offered to their godz from space
Watching on their human race
Looking into the darkness
From towers awaiting their signs
With fire they draw on our mountains
Their calendar tells us it's time
Bleed for the godz
Suddenly lightning about us
Outside a vanishing light
Looking around for the traitors
The seeds that will be left behind
Sacrifice to their godz
Sun sets the slaves all die
The hearts of humans left to dry
Burnt offerings to the sky
Looking into the darkness
From towers awaiting their signs
With fire they draw on our mountains
Their calendar tells us it's time
Bleed for the godz
Looking into the darkness
From towers awaiting their signs
With fire they draw on our mountains
Their calendar tells us it's time
Bleed for the godz
Bleed for the godz
9. The Rager
