The Coven
Outcasts in society
Driven together by creed
Coming together in darkness
Sowing their demon seed
Embracing the Darkness
Together their bodies as one
Worshiping Satan in secret
Until the work is done
Enter to the dark forest
Dance in the shadow of fire
Rise up into the night
The coven worships the dark one
The coven worships the dark one
Making morbid offerings
A sacrifice to Belial
Their naked bodies writhing
Together in bestial lust
Drink the blood of newborns
Fornicate on the black alter
Conjuring Belial, dead of night
To receive his unholy seed
Enter to the dark forest
Dance in the shadow of fire
Rise up into the night
The coven worships the dark one
The coven worships the dark one
Enter to the dark forest
Dance in the shadow of fire
Rise up into the night
The coven worships the dark one
The coven worships the dark one

Banished
The elders of the village
Held their people tight in bondage
Christian Morals, laid down law
When eyes are opened, wanting more
Slaving in the cornfields
Working hard for a selfish God
Dreaming of freedom, wanting salvation
The elders discover my intentions
Inquisition, branded with fire
The witchfinders cruel desire
Stripped and tarred
Banished to the Forest
Waiting in a clearing
The Black Goat of Mendes awaits
"Wouldst thy like to live deliciously"
"Join me, take thy revenge"
The village burning, the elders slain
The women raped and murdered
The children compelled to join with the goat
We wandered back to the forest
Inquisition, branded with fire
The witchfinders cruel desire
Stripped and tarred
Banished to the Forest

Raised in Hell

Raised in Hell
A concious spirit, veiled in black
Feeling the warmth of my Lord
Waiting for my moment
To be born into the world
My mother bore me in bondage
Strapped down on the black altar
The high priest held me aloft
And baptised me in virgins blood
Raised in Hell
Destined to destroy
To burn the tower of God
Raised in Hell, a child of darkness
Nurtured in the coven
Crowned and worshiped as a child of hell
Rising in power amongst mortal men
To hold high office in power
Pretence and guile, my weapons
Leading the world, into war
Civilization, left in tatters
Clearing the way, for my Lord
Raised in Hell
Destined to destroy
To burn the tower of God
Raised in Hell, a child of darkness

Hail the Machine

Hail the Machine
Absorbed in our own creations
Technology leads the way
No place for God in society
Logic heightened day by day
Machines are a gift from Satan
To encourage a loss of faith
Belief in Christ is fading
God is fading away
Hail Lucifer
Hail Satan
Hail the machine
The downfall of the church
Artificial Inteligence
Electronic seance
Counjuring demons to destroy mankind
We've created our own devils
Hail Lucifer
Hail Satan
Hail the machine
The downfall of the church

Left to Rot

Left to Rot
Tortured and hung in the gibbet
For crimes against the church
A healer, at one with nature
Murdered for loving the earth
Captive in the witchfinders dungeon
Nails torn from his hands
Stretched on the rack for confession
Cursed and condemned to hang
Gentle shaman
Cures our ails
Accused and shamed for witchcraft
Hung in shame, left to rot
(SOLO?)
Life fading away now
Dying in the blazing sun
A final curse uttered in passing
Death to the witchfinders son
Gentle shaman
Cures our ails
Accused and shamed for witchcraft
Hung in shame, left to rot

Praise the Whore

Praise The Whore
Carnal pleasures in the black forest
Gathering to spread the seed
Writhing together, a mass of flesh
Bodies as one, in sexual greed
As the orgy increases in pleasure
A dark form begins to appear
Asmodeus in physical form
To mate with these brides of Satan
Blessed to fornicate with Legion
The whores of hell spread their wings
Burning penetration with demons
As blood drips down their legs
Praise the whore
She'll give birth to the devil's spawn
Now with child, and into hiding
To prepare for the unholy birth
Strapped down to the devils altar
As the demon claws it's way out
Blessed to fornicate with Legion
The whores of hell spread their wings
Burning penetration with demons
As blood drips down their legs
Praise the whore
She'll give birth to the devil's spawn

Inverted Cross
The lamb of God gave his life
Died for all our sins
The biggest lie, told to mankind
His sacrifice lead us into bondage
God is not our protector
A keeper of human pets
Slaves to the 10 commandments
Lambs for slaughter, to empower heaven
A symbol of freedom
To break from the flock
Finding our way in Life
The Inverted Cross
Marked on my flesh
I'll honour the 8 kings of Hell
Slowly and silently moving
To free lost souls from Christ
Opening their hearts to Lucifer
They join our number, to free the world
As churches crumble
Cathedrals will fall
Crucifying God head face down
In honour of Satan, the work is done
A symbol of freedom
To break from the flock
Finding our way in Life
The Inverted Cross
Marked on my flesh
I'll honour the 8 kings of Hell

Warlord
A life time of summoning
Black masses and sacrifice
We looked to the south
We looked to the east
We called your name into the Sky
Riding a white stallion
You answered to our call
Beleth King of Hell
Our master, Lord of War
Failure after failure
I took it upon myself
I stepped into the circle
And wore a silver ring
I called your name into the Sky
Riding a white stallion
You answered to my call
Beleth King of Hell
My master, Lord of War
You answered my call
And possessed my flesh and soul
We'll ride your pale steed together
Nations will fall
As we blaze across the the Sky
Riding a white stallion
You answered to our call
Beleth King of Hell
Our master, Lord of War
