1. Follow The Reaper
++++++++++++++++++++
Loosing the war I'm feining to win
though I never tried to to strive deep
from within. Life could be beautiful
for anybody it's for, but I'd swear this
mothafuckin' shit is rotten to the core.
The portal has been past and it's time to make a turn,
to follow the reaper until the point of no return.
When your blindly death-raying blade
sweeps the griefs and fears away.
I cross my heart and hope
to die thy freedom will be mine.
Sinking down in the ocean of severe emotions.
Grab a bottle to drink up the pain-reliefing potion.
But after all, that got boring too, so no matter
what happens, I couldn't give a damn or too.
The portal has been past 'til the point of no return.
No more lines to cross, no bridges to burn.
Now when your blindly death-raying blade
swept my griefs and tears away.
I'd never go back to cross that line.
I cross my heart and hope to die.
2. Bodom After Midnight
+++++++++++++++++++++++
[Hang on] got to go
Preview what they oughtta know
Keep your head down and fucking die
[Wake up] rise and shine
Gotta take another pint
Dig heads and watch out for the night
When the sun comes down and the moon comes up in the sky
The battle of the day and the night
[Kill, kill, kill] go fuck another one
Candlelight burns in a (? wood so high?)
On a carpet [flying high] take it down to the other side
The way beyond it may lie
When the moon comes up and is rescuing under the night
The reaper is on the other side, let's go
Bodom after midnight
Bodom after midnight yeah
3. Children Of Decadence
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Running under cover of the moonlight shadow death row.
At the night we're running wild with no hope for tomorrow...
No tomorrow!!!
As we're walking through the fire, that burns within us all.
If ya wanna take a glance to the blaze of pain, you'll never be the same.
You wanna get closer and get a taste of death?
I know ya wanna fuck me down til' I'm bleeding red.
I couldn't care less, I'll end up rotting in mud,
so c'mon mothafucka and gimme yer best shot.
You really thought you'd see through what I am and what I need,
we are children of rebellion, we'll fight, we'll bleed.
Don't try to come to preach over us and over me,
we're children of decadence, we're right, we're real, we will fight,
we'll bleed, we're mothafucking dying breed, we're dying...
All wrecked and fucked I wonder if this is the way I'm supposed to go.
But that is all I ever got, that is all I'll ever get, so I just let it go...
4. Every Time I Die
+++++++++++++++++++
The faint blaze of the candle of my life,
slowly dying like a fire in a pouring rain.
No sparks of hope inside,
no shooting stars on my sky.
On broken wings, no flying hight...
Another night, another demise,
Cadaverous wind blowing cold as ice...
I`ll let the wind blow out the light
cuz its gets more painful every time i die.
Out of strenght to fight.
I cannot take another night.
I cannot take it no more.
Lust of light slips through my fingers
like blood on my arms.
Black candle wax has buried me...
Another night, another demise,
Cadaverous wind blowing cold as ice...
I`ll let the wind blow out the light
cuz its gets more painful every time i die.
7. Hate Me
++++++++++
I was born in ashes of molten hatered
Raised by demons in abodes of the end
The Reaper's scythe I fall upon to light my path
Wrecked by mangled wounds of life
I have become become the resurrection of the Evil one
'Y know that I don't fucking care if I live or die
I need a bishop preaching fire to get away with my sins
I despise everything I see so I don't give a fuck if ya hate me
Ain't got respect for humanity
Never lived or wanted immortality
The Reaper's shadow I fall upon to obscure my path
Every day I'm being battered up until I bleed
You motherfuckas just leave me be
Ya could never give me cure for the pain I feel inside
Led by the Reaper I walk in the night
Show me the way to yer kingdom come
I believe in Armageddon, I've been baptised in alcohol
I'm enbodyment of Antichrist
I'm living for my own demise
9. Kissing The Shadows
++++++++++++++++++++++
Hight above yer shadow smiles at me.
Way down below I hear your serenely breathe.
I`m running after you throughout
the valleys of tormented souls,
don`t you be afraid of me only kissing your shadows...
You`re so far away, I can your scent,
when i carries your shadow,
and if you truly want I`ll cross the line I`ll follow.
I`m dreaming my way out from down below.
To get wherever you haunting from, I`ll go...
I`m kissing the shadows you surround me with,
to feel my pain vanishing away from me.
Your touching the shadows I`m surrounding you with,
so together in pease we shall be.
I`m running after you throughout
the valleys of tormented souls,
don`t you be afraid of me only kissing your shadows...
You`re so far away, I can your scent,
when i carries your shadow,
and if you truly want I`ll cross the line I`ll follow.
10. Don't Stop At The Top
originally recorded by Scorpions
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
You never take the easy way
The wind is blowing straight into your face
You never close your eyes
For any trouble that may cross your way
There's no risk that you're not taking
Not a mountain that's too high
Spread your wings, you're gonna make it
To the best time of your life.
Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Thouch the sky before you drop
(Thouch the sky)
Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Thouch the sky before you drop
(Thouch the sky)
You never make a compromise
Your will has got the power that won't break
You never say a never
To a challenge, that will come along the way
There's no risk you're not taking
Not a mountain that's too high
Spread your wings you're gonna make it
To the best time of your life.
Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Thouch the sky before you drop
(Thouch the sky)
Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Thouch the sky before you drop
(Thouch the sky)
Never Stop! Never Stop!
Don't stop at the top.
Never Stop! Never Stop! Never Stop!
Don't stop at the top
Don't stop at the top
(Don't stop at the top)
Thouch the sky before you drop
(Thouch the sky)
Don't stop...
11. Shot In The Dark
originally recorded by Ozzy Osbourne
++++++++++++++++++++
Out on the street I'm stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill but it doesn't it seem right
Something there I can't believe in
Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them I can hear them
Vanishing memories of things that were said
They can't try to hurt me now
But a shot in the dark one step away from you
A shot in the dark always creeping up on you
Taught by the powers that preach over me
I can hear their empty reason
I wouldn't listen I learnt how to fight
I opened up my mind to treason
But just like the wounded and when it's too late
They'll remember they'll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now
But a shot in the dark one step away from you
A shot in the dark not a thing that you can do
A shot in the dark always creeping up on you
But just like the wounded and when it's too late
They'll remember they'll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now
But a shot in the dark one step away from you
A shot in the dark not a thing that you can do
A shot in the dark always creeping up on you
Back
