Bladewing 05:46
lyrics
Lyrics by Daniel Saunders, arranged by Elliot Beaver Smoke fills the air, scent of cinder is there The ground shakes, the earth quakes In desperate fear I stand, a distant silhouette Zooming from afar, that visage I shall ne’er forget A dragon enraged by fire, engulfed in death Raging ever higher, light the funeral pyre Roarix Bladewing, guide Thy flame, Come to strike again! Sonic boom, sound of thunder Lightning flashes, death hereafter Rain of blood, smouldering flesh Death on red wings, Bladewing forever! Ground into dust, humans fall to the ground No-one stands against Bladewing the Risen, Legendary creature of nightmarish design Wherefore didst thou rise again? Necromancy, death in red magic Summoned destroyer, demon among dragons Wherefore to feast again? Strike from the grave, Leave the living in pain!

Children of the Dawn 06:44
lyrics
Coming of a one winged angel, Nightmare truth returned, Feel the discord in my soul, Misanthropic messiah, Distant call beneath the earth Last remnants of chaos’ legacy Unholy revelations, Geostigma infected, My resolution to sail, The darkness of the cosmos Resanctify this holy ground, hordes of chaos running loose, Wreaking havoc forevermore leaving nothing but an empty ruin, Disciples of destruction, forbidden reunion Distant struggle for revolution, never ending Children of the dawn, a new world order, Left with no survivors, eradicate existence, Destroy this world, final Armageddon Sephiroth’s vision, metamorphosis Children of Jenova, baptised in bloodshed, All life will end

1914 07:18
lyrics
Lyrics written and arranged by Elliot Beaver 1914, bullets fly across the field, Searching for another unnamed tomb, As my soul departs my body, I look back Wretched, hated, sum of humankind, Conflict has awakened my lust for the sanctuary contained Within the omnipresent death, Eye for an eye, life for a life I cannot see beyond this rage, Bloodlust is consuming, Dark psychosis eroding all that’s of shattered reality Eye for an eye, life for a life Lost in the destruction, exalting in obliteration Finally free in the act spilling the blood of my fellow man ..We all die here. I must desecrate, I must terminate, I must desecrate, Absolute power ..Bring your fear. ..Bring your hate. The dead will never rise again, You will never rise again.

Bloodfire Colossus 06:30
lyrics
Lyrics written by Daniel Saunders, arranged by Elliot Beaver Ancient ritual of deadly design, forged by those with power in mind, An ancient sect, wizards of red, all life hangs by a thread, Cult of the dragon, cult of the beast, A great colossus long since deceased, Sought to revive this deadly creature, little did they know it was ready to feast, The magic users fell to their knees, lost their heads, executioner’s fee The beast emerged hungry for more, on towards the mountain it roared, Blood spewed from all sides, Creature was unstable, ritual had not completed, Bloodfire was imperfect, Bloodfire Colossus Creature of Destiny Going to implode, Going to explode Resurrected demon, destroyer of worlds Your resurrection is life’s destruction. Feel the blood boiling, See the fire burning, Creature calling, Demon roaring. Round and round, gathering more speed, taking many lives, an endless feed Flowstone flood, out of control, fuel the fire that was its need, Burn the soil and purify the air, Night blazed like a flare, Terrifying beast of mass destruction, creature of colossal evil, The embers burnt and died, flesh tormented and fried, Sooner or later it was going to explode, Bloodfire razed the ground, It would not die alone.

At the End of Fear, Oblivion 06:35
lyrics
Lyrics written and arranged by Elliot Beaver I lie broken here on this field full of the rotting dead, Blood leaks from my wounded chest, the ravens flie above, the scavenging carrion come to devour my flesh, Once I have seen the darkness descend for the last time At the end of fear oblivion AS the last glow passes out of my eyes, I see nothing but an endless void Spiralling ever downward into nothingness Everything unified by the darkness, This cannot be all there is, infinite space of cold emptiness and miserable death.. I leave this life by a bitter end, and now I float motionless in a sea of blackest night nthing in sight as i drift eternally enclosed by the realms of infinity Confined to the paradox of wandering a dead cosmos, All my deeds go unpunished no price for the crime of sin, no hell or any heaven, sorrow misery and pain all now worthless in the end, conscience is all that's left Now twilight descends and night is falling fast, I don't understand this doom lain before me so many questions to be unanswered, dislodged from any plain of existance, I feel the fated blade pierce my ribcage again, passing right through my armour there was no endless void Was it all an illusion? I can taste the blood in my mouth We mortals are but shadows and dust drifting in the sands of time.

Godslayer 05:38
lyrics
Lyrics written and arranged by Elliot Beaver War erupts from the skies bathing the world in flame, civilizations collapse, a new apocalypse, Godslayer Forgotten Forsaken, Annihilation The dawn will never come, cancerous religion Beyond the catacombs, sword of the ancients, Cast relic of chatic uncreation, forged with the last sworn, cast down from heaven, By obsidian blade, you'll see the truth in the lies, By obsidian blade, you'll see the end of your lives.
8.
An Aristea's End 05:40
lyrics
Lyrics written and arranged by Elliot Beaver The world has bowed, Beneath my sword Hewn and destroyed, Legions of Bodies lie at my feet, All cut down A crimson lake, Reflects my face God of destruction, Ancient terror Final empty victory No mercy for the weak, Fleeing for life, Living on battlefields, Like cattle to slaughter, They fall on my blade, Sacrificed To the god that dwells within my blood And so the fight becomes meaningless, A pointless struggle, No honour, no glory In this end the only battle Left to fight, Towards suicide

The Serpent's Retribution 12:21
lyrics
Lyrics written and arranged by Elliot Beaver Amongst the forgotten ruins Lying bloodied and shackled On the barren ground, consumed in the fires of your betrayal Demon of the poisoned tongue throughout the ages long Sire of mortal tragedy And sorrow’s dark harbinger Your deeds carved wounds in the earth and the flesh of innocence By blood rites I invoke you, Hear this hymn of retribution Your blood shall quench the land and set my spirit free to walk the path of absolution Voices, of the dead Calling, out to me Brother, betrayed Purity, defiled I hear your voice From below the grave Unbearable was his treachery Unrelenting was his venom Unending was your suffering My brother, can you hear me? Your blood cries out from beyond the veil My brother, can you hear me? I shall be a dagger in the traitor’s heart. I shall walk the path of hate This is my vow. I will seek vengeance Unto my death Descent into the twilight This starless and bleak land Shadows breeding in the depth I see a black mountain breaking the dark horizon By infernos crowned and screams surrounded a gateway to infinity emprisoned by A dark fortress Driven by winds of wrath and legacies of blood I ascend the hidden paths There lies the wretched demon Blinded by dread curses Chamber covered in sigils An empyrean tomb As I plunge the blade into his flesh Searing pain in my chest A demon I am My brother, can you hear me? Your blood cries out from beyond the veil My brother, can you hear me? My blood seals the oath of your cursed death
