1. Intro




2. This Day All Gods Die

Ten thousand years into the reign of our
Madness and misery
From the fertile womb of the near east born
One lifestyle and tradition
Like a raging storm this brutish culture
Swarmed across the continents and seas
To pillage and rape, with lust this earth to take
Now we stand on the brink of destruction

Outside of nature stands angelic our mother culture
We've been blindly led down the darkened halls
Of a ravaged world deplored
Within this society lay the suffering seed
We must dispel the falsehoods and lies and
Kill the gods they so desperately need

A way of life filled with grief and strife
And a failing sense of mind
For how we used to live, how we used to
Thrive in this global community
But now we stand alone and struggle to
Fulfill the so-called destiny of humankind
To rule this sacred earth, for what the scars are worth,
I will live as a full sworn enemy

Burn the altars upon which their dwindling faith lies
Tear the pages from their holy scriptures
(Prophets speak empty words)
Crucify their convictions
(For love of the world I stray from the selfish path of salvation)
For with each life which turns its back on their beliefs
The gods which make up the base of their culture cease to be
The gifts of civilization and technology which their gods bestow
Are but despair and disease gilded in fools gold

Of what does our voice sing in the chorus of distress?
This day all gods die.




3. Lay This Life Down

Under this bloodred sky
I offer this tortured flesh
To gods under your heavens
My soul spent worthless

Lay this life down

Bring me divinity
To answer crim with their lies
Bring forth the armies of grief
Rancid breath of an angel disease

Feed me tears of a martyr's last cry
My flesh to your flesh to dust as we -- die

In this world bombarded by bellows of madness
I cling to lonely chambers of my mind
Scratching the surfaces
Searching for some sanity

Under this bloodred sky
I offer this tortured flesh
To gods under your heavens
My soul spent worthless

Bring my divinity
To answer crim with their lies




4. Fire of Life

The fire burns within an incandescent flame
Kindled and rekindled
The fire of life burns forever

Self consumed and renewed
Everyplace and everything in this universe
Share in the blaze, no one and nothing is exempt

Humanity - born from the community of life
Yet somehow we seperate ourselves
From the world to which we belong

Nature's laws (diving laws) - we defy
An unrelenting war waged against creation
Through providence
I will surrender my only life

The fading sun caresses the horizon
Now it's time to finish what we've begun

Take a look around - watch this world slowly die
To dust corrupted vision
Human or not - life will go on

Life eternal

Self consumed and renewed
Everyplace and everything in this universe
Share in the blaze, no one and nothing is exempt

The fire of life.




5. When the Heavens Shed Tears

The final war to purge and purify
This sacred world - vilified
One culture interred with righteousness
Weaved from deception
Down on bent knees we cry for salvation
Upon death we feast with blood-soaked deceit

Destruction creeps but demons don't speak
For the truth makes hearts bleed with sorrow
So angels watch the funeral march
And wait for a destined tomorrow

Preyed upon by the pestilence of avarice and ignorance
From the cradle to the grave we forfeit
Freedom to the ranks of slaves

Demons dance to a black symphony
As the war comes quick to a close
And angels on high look down in disgust
To a dead earth that circles below

When the heavens shed tears to a sordid dusk
Rapes their sun scorched machinery of disease
This brutal path we tread etched by tears of the damned
The art of salvation crafted by hands that
Would kill... that would kill

A wasteland, a ruin is all that remains as this
Iron age dissolves life to commodity, our
Souls commited to atrocity, no sort of
Prayer can
Save us now
But...

...Still we will fight down from the heavens
Into the arms of my mother earth
To burn the cradle of civilization - returned
To dust, still we will fight down from the heavens




6. For Liberation

(Into) the birth of carnage
Will you but watch when innocent life
Is born and destined
To an unjustified wretched experience?

I refuse to deny their pain or ignore their
Suffering - I fight for liberation
Ashes on ashes we build their fate
With bloodshed upon our hands

Cries - oh we whisper of their death in blood,
Of their misery to flesh a vicious price
Driven to nightmare while we could sleep

I refuse to deny their pain or ignore their
Suffering - I fight for liberation

Ashes on ashes we build their fate
With bloodshed upon our hands
Ashes on ashes tread our path to degradation

Their blood upon your hands
Prized with gifts of domination
Their blood upon your hands
Our fall towards defilement

A wail in the silence
A shriek from the darkness
One last dying breath

Screaming tongues flexed with cries for mercy

I'll fight for liberation.
