1.	The Cursed Evil 05:48	lyrics	buy track
The sun is swallowed by darkness The deep night comes down from above In the still of the night The moonshine is bright The howling of wolves And there is no light They held this meeting in secret Disciples of the black magic rites The sabbath is near The thirteen are here The evil awakes And begins to appear From the magic sphere The cursed evil is born The rite must be done The power of darkness is growing from The chanting of spells The dancing like hell The air is filled with their yell! They summon the goat of Mendes His voice is spilled out of hell You can not feel The black magic is real Just wait and see His spirit is free The evil spell has been chanted The ceremony is almost complete The unholy feast The cult of the beast Taking the brew And they end with a screw The cursed evil is born The rite must be done The power of darkness is growing from The chanting of spells The dancing like hell The air is filled with their yell! The sun rises over the darkness A new day bestows holy light The ritual is done The thirteen are gone Under the spell Evil will dwell The cultists are sealed for damnation While the ancient force spreads in the air Slowly decay Wasted away The price will be paid But It is too late The cursed evil is free As they mean It to be They've got the power and dignity But they could not see The damnation is near And they'll pay the highest fee
2.	Witches of the Night 05:09	lyrics	buy track
At night they're leaving Leaving their secret place Flying high in the sky full of grace Their spells are bullets Cursing with the diving bombs Riding their biplanes in the dark Hail of thousand bombs Turned Earth into a burning hell Witches of the night You can not hide from their spell Turn off the engine Complete silence in the dark Getting closer, ready to attack The wind is carrying The devastating kiss of death Bringing their vengeance with bated breath Hail of thousand bombs Turned Earth into a burning hell Witches of the night You can not hide from their spell No fear One by one They come and disappear Screams of air-raids Pierce the night Far and near Burning land No one will shed a tear Striking from within And fighting back Fighting back Foreign invaders Are raping their motherland Spreading in the country like a plague Defend or nothing Got the order «No Step Back» On and on they carry on attack Hail of thousand bombs Turned Earth into a burning hell Witches of the night You can not hide from their spell
3.	Damien 05:27	lyrics	buy track
He came to Earth from wolfmother's womb What's done is done. Who is at fault? Awaited child was killed in quite Shame on the priest that he would not deny He's marked by satan. It's 666 Try to prevent It? He made the list Who dares to stand there on his path He wiped them from existence with wrath The child was born to feel Prediction was so real It's hard to carry destiny Little Thorn was growing older Time waits not. He was getting smarter At 13 years he realized His destiny. He was surprised Possessed by evil. He sought his rival The answer was found in the holy bible False messiah summoned his suite Black ravens, dogs and mobs of fiends The child was born to feel Prediction was so real It's hard to carry destiny The blackest crow wheels slowly Above his prey No one will stay alive You'd better pray Our Father, which art in heaven Hallowed be thy Name Thy Kingdom come Thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread And forgive us our trespasses As we forgive them That trespass against us And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil Amen He came to Earth from wolfmother's womb What's done is done. Who is at fault? Awaited child was killed in quite Shame on the priest that he would not deny He's marked by satan. It's 666 Try to prevent It? He made the list Who dares to stand there on his path He wiped them from existence with wrath The child was born to feel Prediction was so real It's hard to carry destiny
4.	In the Hands of Fate 07:34	lyrics	buy track
I've had enough and I'm feeling tired It's coming closer to the edge Suck my brain and tear my heart apart My chest is broken by the rage Envenomed thoughts are poisoning my mind I feel the screams beginning down inside In the hands of fate It seems I've lost all the chances Could I start again? Tell me how and when Thinking it's too late Now there's no time for changes Lying in the bed With choices I have made Remember well all my mindless days Why did they leave me? Am I free? I know for sure that's nobody's fault But time is sweeping right through me I'm falling down and givin' up for lost My bills are paid by this bitter cost In the hands of fate It seems I've lost all the chances Could I start again? Tell me how and when Thinking it's too late Now there's no time for changes Lying in the bed With choices I have made All hopes are drowned And my mind melts in the darkness Melts in the fears How long could I stand? I'm feeling down It seems like It will last forever ever, forevermore But what doesn't kill me Makes me strong, stronger That's all I love, that's all I hate Oh, Lord I have no time to regret I can't be sure just when it ends I know the good life will begin How many times I swear to myself To be stronger and gather the will that I have But every morning I see no light of day I ask the mirror: is there a way? In the hands of fate It seems I've lost all the chances Could I start again? Tell me how and when Thinking It's too late Now there's no time for changes Lying in the bed With choices I have made In the hands of fate Chances Thinking It's too late Changes
5.	Street Jackals 05:53	lyrics	buy track
Out in the streets into the night They're running in a pack They're no wolves they're ruffians You'd never turn your back The smell of danger is in the air Your skin is breaking into sweat A lump in throat, only despair There's no time for your regret For now you are playing by their rules You're cornered in the alleyway Their knifes are sharp like jackal's tooth They're gonna make you hurt this way Can not hide They'll be all over you Fear inside There's nothing you can do Ain't no sound Except your scream at night No way out You feel the jackal's bite We play upon your hidden fears Don't look for trouble in the dark You'll never know when we appear Just listen for the bark The waltz of knifes will take It all The deadly dancing in moonlight A haze of pain. You have to fall It could be better to stop the fight Can not hide They'll be all over you Fear inside There's nothing you can do Ain't no sound Except your scream at night No way out You feel the jackal's bite The shadows slide straight down the wall The moving figures are standing tall You are surrounded by the pack The silence is broken by the scream You can't believe that's not your dream You turned your back for the attack Can not hide They'll be all over you Fear inside There's nothing you can do Ain't no sound Except your scream at night No way out You feel the jackal's bite
6.	Judgement Day 05:20	lyrics	buy track
Staring into the crumbling sky How could I deserve to die? Behold the last sunrise Oh, I realize The doomsday clock is ticking faster Mother Earth is ready for disaster Time is up, our days are numbered Preparing for nuclear thunder Day by day increasing strife Contradiction twists the knife See pure children, let them pray So really who's to blame? Who will get shot in his head? How long must we suffer this senseless bloodshed? What will we do when all is lost? All that we know will turn to dust All hopes and dreams will be washed away Humanity meets the Judgement day Our Leaders hold a course to nowhere We eat the heresy everywhere The news are feeding with their shit How many errors they will commit? Who will get shot in his head? How long must we suffer this senseless bloodshed? What will we do when all is lost? All that we know will turn to dust All hopes and dreams will be washed away Humanity meets the Judgement day Don't let this history unfold Forgotten future slowly rots They crucify our narrow mind The answer is hard to find The final hour is coming nearer How soon the world will be disappear? The people are waiting for the end It's the harvest of our hatred
7.	Insanity 04:40	lyrics	buy track
Unreal enemy lives in my head Pointless fight. I am almost dead Appearing in visions and sitting deep inside my brain I will feel the misery, but you will feel the pain Beware! It always tries to seize me inside Second self that's from my mind No way! The plague of madness is striking my brain It's all driving me insane Bouts of insanity. Is It a devil's gift? Hearing voices. Head gave painful shift Breeding despair, commence to kill My actions don't belong to my will Beware! It always tries to seize me inside Second self that's from my mind No way! The plague of madness is striking my brain It's all driving me insane I can't make a choice Hearing just one voice I tried to heal My mental wounds It's against my will Feel horror and thrill That swallows me within Now I'm climbing a tower to the top To cast my own judgement. I'm like dynamite! Palms on my remington are getting wet Shooting at targets in a cold sweat Beware! It always tries to seize me inside Second self that's from my mind No way! The plague of madness is striking my brain It's all driving me insane
8.	Ravages of Time 11:28	lyrics	buy track
The night before I saw a dream Of a man his figure was so clear The lines were carved upon his face I heard the warning that he gave Then he said "Yearn for the past Fear of today You spent your life In a wrong way" The cruel time walks like a plague There is no cure, there's no escape The sleep is gone. A new day has come But in the mirror reflects the old man Reflects the old man Deep inside the ancient mountain There are three Fates who are holding time in their hands The first is maiden who spins the thread of life And her sister measures where and when the third comes The third is a dead one. In her pallid hands She is tightly holding her sharp and abhorred shears The three fates sing in unison The Siren's song The things that were, the things that are The things that are to be What d'you search for on your path Strove to catch the wind, strayed in the doubts Thrown down in the hands of fates Strife is in your mind. Isn't time to be afraid? The cruel time walks like a plague There is no cure, there's no escape You'll never know when, where and how Your thread is pulled and the shears are reaching out Like a rover you're rambling through the sands It seems the desert full of years But If you think that you hold all within your hands Through your palms It disappears Time flies away without delay Don't lose your sands in vain I'm waiting and calling to the senseless time Take me back, give me please delights of life
