Wings of Geryon

Flaming tombs and scorching hail
Tortured spirits weep and wail
Clergymen and mighty kings
Can't escape the demon's sting
Honored men from up above
Slashed by swords and daggers shoved
Boiled 'live in reeking pits
For mortal sins they did commit
Come and see this world of mine
Realm of pain and doom divine
Harpies feast on carrion
Ride the Wings of Geryon
Demonic sadism appeased
Frauds inflicted with disease
Perfect anguish every hour
Fattened gluttons are devoured
Putrid swamps and burning sands
Face the wrath of God's left hand
Torment now and for aeons
Ride the Wings of Geryon
Come and see this world of mine
Realm of pain and doom divine
Harpies feast on carrion
Ride the Wings of Geryon

Dark Prophecies
04:24
|
|||
|
The spirit holy
Bestowed unto me
These dark prophecies
Lend me your ear
Be still and hear
Of what is to be
Mankind will stray
From the true faith
And pursue his greed
Scripture abjured
Great apostasies
Rising heresies
Their minds will darken
The light they'll distrust
Give in to passion
To violence and lust
Exchanging truth for
The vilest of lies
Everything righteous
Reviled and despised
Woe to this selfish and wicked
Bloodline to come!
This creation flawed
To degeneracy, applaud
Utter madness made law
Wisdom despised
Morality denied
For the teachings of frauds
Idolatry, savage gluttony
Substance dependency
Malicious glares
Ascending to warfare
Over territory
Fathers will butcher
Their sons with the sword
Daughters to murder
Their mothers in scorn
Even those young ones
Will not escape death
Sacrificed on altars
Their throats slashed and bled
Woe to this world in the future undone
Woe to the nations in excess succumb
Woe to this selfish and wicked
Bloodline to come!
Oh, how the Virgin's heart breaks
Seeing a world given to hate
The snake has entered the church
Distorting God's holy word
The priests have gone insane
Kings have become deranged
The bishops from their homes, retreat
As the dark one takes his seat
Now that you've learned
Acknowledge my words
And change your ways
Repent and fast
It's the only chance
That your world may be saved
The Great One above
And His son beloved
Have given a choice
Turn away from sin
Love your brethren
Save those lost
From the void
Ignore this warning at your own peril
Should you flee from the gateway narrow
To choose to pursue carnal fulfillment
Expect in the end a great chastisement
Woe to this world in the future undone
Woe to the nations in excess succumb
Woe to this selfish and wicked
Bloodline to come!

The Allure of Evil

Welcome to the land
Where piety goes to die
Where angels dare not tread
But the demons indulge and thrive
Won't you join us, friend?
Taste our pleasures
Have a bit of wine
Why do you base your life
On the rantings of a foolish old man?
Leave his nonsense behind
And partake in the Dionysian clan
Have some more wine...
Stay here for a day
And you'll never want to leave
Give in to all sin
Don't deny the ecstasy achieved
The so-called right hand path
Is nothing more than
A means to deceive
Ignore the sacraments
Just look to
These ancient texts profound
Renounce the kingdom of light
And pay homage to
The serpentine hound
One of us eternally
In this land of hedonists
One of us eternally
Dare ye not to resist
One of us eternally...
One of us!
NOW YOU ARE ONE OF US!

Enoch's Vision
05:15
|

I see many citizens
Falling to perdition
So given unto transgression
They worship an evil
From an era primeval
And stir up much upheaval
Virtue means nothing
To this fallen world...
I see a lake of fire
With a scorched, screaming choir
Burning in this infernal pyre
And with them, the demons
Every one of their legions
Suffer alongside the heathens
Damnation will be
Their final reward...
I see a kingdom
Unblemished from schism
Made of bejeweled prism
And from His throne
Who made all things known
Has seen the malice sewn
From His very own
Breaking the seals
My vision revealed
A world soon healed
Through a great judgement
Terrible chastisement
Soon to assault the defiant
And the tyrants

Days of Darkness

'Twas on a cold night
Not a single star in sight
The moon was gone
And the thunder roared
Wind was bellowing
Men were cowering
Something's wrong
It can't be ignored
The ground began to quake
Structures crack and break
Run for your lives! RUN!
The beasts have grown silent
And to their lairs retreat
Something wrathful this way comes
The wind grows violent
Temperatures rise with heat
Cries arise in many tongues
Light the sacred candles!
Lock your windows and doors!
Confess your every scandal!
Pray like never before!
We were warned
Yet we ignored
Indulging in our sin
The prophets we mocked
Their advice scoffed
And now the hour
Of chastisement begins
Lo, it's gone awry
Fire rains from the sky
Scores of soldiers, incinerated
A pestilent fume
To further seal our doom
Piling corpses, mass extinction
Castles crashing down
Monuments fall to the ground
Civilization, annihilated
Not a single soul
Will exit unscathed
Should they survive
Three days and nights
Every last noble
Has no hope of escape
Swallowed hole
By fissures deep and wide
Light the sacred candles!
Lock your windows and doors!
Confess your every scandal!
Pray like never before!
We were warned
Yet we ignored
Indulging in our sin
The prophets we mocked
Their advice scoffed
And now the hour
Of chastisement begins

They thought they saw the last of me
All believed I was a lost cause
They said it was tragedy
A Horrific fate, my time had come
Guess again, my simple friend
On this night I rise again
Gaze in fear for I'm not dead
Come closer, my sweet
I hunger for meat
You shouldn't have buried me
I'm not dead
My cryptic warnings you did not heed
On your fragile innards I'll feed
Drink my wine from your hollowed head
Now YOU'RE the one who is truly dead!
