"With Strength I Burn" by Emperor


"Deep Green Dark Chaos
Blinded I run down these paths
By heart I know them
They lead to the searing cliffs
Stout they stand above the water's edge
Lifeless

And this is my foundation
Cold stone
Formed only by winds and time
How invulnerable
Lifeless

Ahh...
I have longed to be at one with this
Yet, the waters call my name

For once I wish to see
The entity behind the voice
The face of this seduction
The beauty of my pain

Am I blessed or am I cursed by thy presence...
What is my crime...
What is my deed...
Is this life my redemption
Shall I repent or proceed

I hate my flesh
It's dimension poisoned my soul with doubt
It made me question the essence of...
The "I"

Slaves are those of this world
Given freedom to lay chains upon The Master
The wolf is no longer free
Release the chains and come for me

[The Elder:]
"Suddenly, his mournful cries were stunned. Out of the cold mist
came three enthralling ships. Sails torn by many a storm, and the
bows adorned by the most fierce gargoyles he'd ever laid eyes upon.
Yet, the crew they bore... Three times twelve in numbers. They stood
motionless, wrapped in grey, worn gowns. And from behind their
shadowed faces the seductive chanting. Bidding him on board.
Without besitation, he accepted. And away they sailed..."

Upon these seas
Wherein I drowned so many times
I scatter the ashes of dignity
Still my flames are in hunger

With fire in my heart
Shall I greet the shores ahead
Though, I know not what will burn

Desire...
Ahh...
In the distance
I hear the waves wash over solid ground
And in this moment I am struck blind

Grant me sight so I can see
That which lies ahead of me
Cursed be my mortal eyes
For dying in the realm of death

Hear my call...

I return to the soaring cliffs
They truly shine of strength
Even though, I nothing learned
With strength I burn..."

"Thorns on my Grave" by Emperor


"I hereby commit my body to the ground
sterilised and wrapped in plastic foil
being an object of this space and time
this body should remain concealed

for it holds every disease
ever exposed
it holds all pain and death
I could ever unleash

beneath deceiving, fragile skin
breathes the ever growing hate within

since the first glimpse of my existence
I have fed this greedy infection

an aimless search for potential persistence
found no escape from the fatal injection of life

for it holds every disease
ever exposed
it holds all pain and death
it could ever unleash

beneath deceiving, fragile skin
breathes the ever growing hate within

I am the father

I am the son
my refugee soul has escaped
this body depraved
of final wishes I ask none
but one
now that I am gone
lay thorns on my grave"

[KyWish]

Children of Bodom-Towards Dead End

No flickering light at the end of the path
Confront repressions of the past
Fear... Prevail... Insanity... Obey!
Draw back in silence to dwell in anxiety
No matter where I am, I'm alone
My dreams are shattered
into thousand running tears
The tears keep dripping down, down,
deep, down from my veins

I'm walking towards dead end I'm walking all alone
Two steps behind insanity
There's no starlight guiding my way throught this downward death row
Soon will be the time I have to go...

Little by little the end is drawing near
Another night and so little blood to spare
(Ya can hurt me... but ya can't possess me 'Y know...)

Kill me, hurt me, FUCK me, rape me, you won't have me!

Draw back in silence to dwell in anxiety,
No matter where I am, I'm alone. I'm crying outloud
the tears of blood I bleed, so FUCK the world,
I'll go now, I don't care. (Who cares?)

I'm walking towards dead end, and I'm walking all alone
Two steps ago I past insanity
There's no starlight guiding my way out this downward death row
So now is the time I have to go

"Inner Logic" by Bad Religon

Automatons with business suits clinging black boxes,
sequestering the blueprints of daily life.
Contented, free of care, they rejoice in morning ritual,
as they file like drone ant colonies to their office in the sky.

I don't ask questions, don't promote demonstrations,
don't look for new consensus, don't stray from constitution.
If I pierce the complexity I won't find salvation,
just the bald and over truth
of the evil and deception.

There is an inner logic.
And we're taught to stay far from it.
It is simple and elegant,
but it's cruel and antithetic.
And there's no effort to reveal it.

Graduated mentors stroll in marbled brick porticos.
In sagacious dialog they despise their average ways.
Displaying pomp and discipline, they mold their institution,
where they practice exclusion on the masses every day.

Decorated warriors drill harmless kids on pavement
simulating tyranny under red alert.
Protecting the opulent and staging moral standard
they expect redemption of character and self-growth.

(no equality, no opportunity,
no tolerance for the progressive alternative...)

"News from the Front" by Bad Religion

Blood is a river,
flowing darkly amidst the tangled roots of the tall shining city.
Crazy flowing mantide migrations
engorge the big ventricle of heartbroken America.
So many heaven hoping, hopeful groping breathers
all tap together quietly and desprately in unison.
Hey, hey, hey, is anybody listening?

News from the front.
News form the front.
We're living in troubled times.
So many fighting for their lives.
Why do the troops despise the news from the front?

Ignorance is the root of fear.
Fear is the kindling of anger.
War is a bringer of shame,
but never has the burden lain so heavily upon the victim
Rage and desolation
Pain and loneliness.
Isn't all of it alarmingly familiar?
Hey, hey, hey, silence is a killer.

News form the front.
News from the front.
Yeah these are troubled times.
How many more will have to die
Before the government can't deny the news form the front?

Break down the barriers, ally the carriers,
what is your motivation? take a good look in the mirror.

News from the front.
News from the front.
So many fighting for their lives.
How many more will have to die?
Why does the government decry the news form the front?

"Worlds Beyond The Veil" by Mithras


"That which lies beyond
Open your eyes, awaken your senses
This I show you, now you shall see
And it will change, your world forever

See to beyond
Past perception and physical senses

We shall fall into the worlds beyond the veil

Entranced by the turning vortex
Its visions of splendour entice me
But yet there are things
Which I do not know or have ever seen
A portal opens
I fall far, far down
Amongst the ones
Who call for me.

Behold! This being gliding with form
Yet no form
Transfixed yet horrified by this angelic enigma
Run! It senses us. It feels us
It's coming
Can it cross the worlds' divide?
Will we escape it?

Wait, there is more than this
Yes, there is terror beyond known terror
But all we have done
Must not be lost
We shall step into the light"

"Withstand the Fall of Time" by Immortal


"Darker and darker skylines of red grew my horizon
on the egdes of my vision a giant grimfaced realm...
Flaming suns crested the horizon shadows born a cloudless day
believers of the rise and set of the moon darkened twilight into night...

Hardening claws of cold tell me we are closer to colder times
through the days of bitterness still the tundra lay untouched
In the final of that day and all centuries after
in eternity and time the same still the tundra lay untouched

Blacker and blacker blinded by shades from centuries behind
shadows of a dark that used to be under heavy winters reign...
The blackening sky never end as we stand the fall of time
yet winds of cold will always blow without tomorrow...

Hardening claws of cold tell me we are closer to colder times
through the days of bitterness still the tundra lay untouched
In the final of that day and all centuries after
in eternity and time the same still the tundra lay untouched"

Emperor-Ye Entrancemperium

Drawn towards these lands again
Seeking death and sacred soil
I ride the longing winds of my blackened soul
Growing stronger once I enter my empire beyond

Emperium
Behold my coming

The fullmoon rise above me
Enlightening my realm in a silvery glow
Yet the shadows crawl beneath my storming sky
Guarding treasures from forbidden light

I still remember, though ages ago it seems
The first time I entered the gates
The revelation of ritual death
By which I became divine
Sacrifice of the life I had among the flesh of the light

And now I enter again
Even stronger, yet amazed by what I see
In ecstasy I mock the world

Suddenly I memorize
Asking what I left behind
Nothing

Can I ever comprehend?
Will my longing ever end?

Never

Drawn towards these lands again
Seeking death and sacred soil
I ride the longing winds of my blackened soul
Eternally

"Posessed by the Serpents Vengance" by Aeternus


"we dwell in purity
beneath a sea of abundance
content with the nurture
of our native land

we are awakened in torment
stabbed by the oppressors blade

a silence
slashed by tyranny's
hostile face

provoke they must
the righteous sons
invading our dwelling
and yield we shall not

restrain us
and we shall strike
at the throats of our
oppressors possessed by the
serpents vengance
hold us down and you shall know
the fury that dwells within

your wrath coiled around the earth
your venom courses it veins
strike at their fear
destroy their kingdoms
with your poisonous rage

revenge

pulsing through seas of a blind age
appear in their dreams
as a hellish crusade
suppression, condemnation
to spit away

probing with your morality
bore us not with your profanity
for those who rose
shall strike
with the serpents vengance"

[-(aaK)- Neil Faz]

Hurt - Jonny Cash

"I hurt myself today
To see if i still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing thats real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar stane
Tried to kill it all the way
But i remember everything

What have i become
My sweetest friend
Everyone i know goes away
In the end

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
upon my lifes chair
Full of broken thoughts
I can not repair

Beneath the stains of time
The feeling disappears
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone i know goes away
In the end

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If i could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

"Erblicket die Töchter des Firmaments" by Burzum



"Ich frage mich, wie wird der Winter sein
wenn ich den Frühling niemals sehen werde
Ich frage mich, wie wird die Nach sein
wenn ich den Tag niemals sehen werde
Ich frage mich, wie wird das Leben sein
wenn ich das Licht niemals sehen werde
Ich frage mich, wie wird das Leben sein
wenn der Schmerz endlos währt

In jeder Nacht ist das Schwarz anders
in jeder Nacht wünsche ich mir die Zeit zurück,
in der ich durch die alten Wälder ritt

In jedem Winter ist die Kälte anders
in jedem Winter fühle icj mich so alt
so alt wie die Nacht
so alt wie die furchtbare Kälte

Ich frage mich, wie wird das Leben sein
wenn ich den Tod niemals sehen werde
Ich frage mich, wieso muss das Leben
ein Leiben sein, das ewig währt
Ich frage mich, wie wird das Leben sein
wenn ich den Tod niemals sehen werde
Ich frage mich, wieso muss das Leben
ein Leiben sein, das ewig währt"

Rob Dougans drinking song, class. ;D

I want to weave a musical spell
That leaves you unwell and thinking of me everyday
I want to play you a tune that leaves you marooned and troubled
Each time I'm away
Is there a melody - that could lead you to me - like a lullabied child lead to sleep?
So for one moment in time, you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep

I want to write a simple song that's so frequently sung
That you call me to have the thing banned
Who's sound so endears that whole nations cheer and sigh
When you take my hand
Is there a melody - that could lead you to me - like a lullabied child lead to sleep?
So for one moment in time you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep

God I'm a gambler that just wants to lose and be allowed to leave
I'm a traveler - with one last mile my journey is complete
I'm like a swallow that wants one long last look, before flying east
Last on my list - and then I quit - to kiss your lips and weep

I want to play a silver note that fills you with hope
And tames you to feed from my hand
A turquoise chord that invites you to soar
And fly... to a faraway land
A symphony that gently leads you to sit and be still with me
And grief doesn't frighten me
As its worst it delights me
'Cause I want to kiss you and weep

For I'm a gambler that just wants to lose and be allowed to leave
I'm a traveler - with one last mile my journey is complete
I'm like a swallow that wants one long last look before flying east
Last on my list - and then I quit - to kiss your lips and weep
Is there a melody - that could lead you to me - like a lullubied child to sleep?
So for one moment in time you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep

So for one moment in time you'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep


Or Furious Angels

Quote:
Like a sentence of death,
I got no options left,
I've got nothing to show now.

I'm down on the ground,
I've got seconds to live,
and you can't go now.

'Cause love, like invisible bullet shot me down
and I'm bleeding, yeah I'm bleeding
and if you go, furious angels will bring you back to me.
They will bring back to me.

You're a dirty needle,
you're in my blood and there's no cure in me.
I wanna run, like the blood from a wound
to a place you can't see me.
'Cause love, like a blow to the head has left me stunned
and I'm reeling, yeah I'm reeling
and if you go, furious angels will bring you back to me.

You're a cold piece of steel between my ribs
and there's no saving me.
And I can't get up,
from this wet crimson bed that you made for me.
That you made for me!
'Cause love like a knife in the back has cut me down
and I'm bleeding, yeah I'm bleeding,
and if you go, angels will run to defend me, to defend me.

'Cause I can't get up, I'm as cold as a stone,
I can feel the life fade from me.
I'm down on the ground, I've got second to live,
and what's that waits for me, oh that waits for me!
'Cause love like a sentence of death, left me stunned,
and I'm reeling, yeah I'm reeling,
and if you go, furious angels will bring you back to me.


Ive just realised, my taste is quite unique

The State of the End of the Millennium Address by Bad Religion

Neighbours, nobody loves you like we do.
Neighbours, your government has triumphed in finally making you a public fit for the 21st century.
Never before has a governing body shown so much concern for the economic well-being of its subjects.
Today we have insulated you from countless factions who threaten your financial viability; such as the poor; the idealistic foreigners still clinging to their childish notions of social welfare; why, you're even kept uninformed of useless propagandist journalism that reports alleged violations of human rights (we all know they wouldn't have been punished if they hadn't been doing something WRONG!!).
And who better to dispense such blatantly evident factoids but a self-appointed authority like myself?

Acid Rain is a thing of the past... too many possible causes, too little significance for our modern thinking public, besides industrial manufacturing is at an all-time low anyway, who needs those narrow-minded labourers, too many mouths to feed, haha, and too much burden on the payroll!
Who needs 'em here in the land of the free time?
Some other ass-backward country will give us what we need by exploiting its uneducated children anyway.

The Internet has expanded our ability to pacify average Americans better than ever by offering fantastical adventures to every corner of the imagination.
Your home office is the window to your world, and the heart of your social life.
Such reclusive behaviour helps clear the roads and public works from overburden like the lower middle class and others who depend shamelessly on their government.
Today you are freer than ever to do what you want, provided you can pay for it!

Remember, the first word in USA is US!
We have arrived neighbours we are the privileged elite.

"I am Vengance" by Naglfar



"Humanity what have you ever done for me?
Denounced and cursed since my birth for I am not like thee
A proud descendant of the ancient seed
Driven forth by the screams of my enemies
I am the plague that shall grace you with an early grave
Exterminate - bring you all into damnation
In an orgasmic rush of pain I mark my coming in crimson sprays

Fools! I shall rid myself from the thorns pierced in my side
The weak laments of your wounded shall be my crown
Anointed in their tears... sweet as wine are they

A waste of flesh is the only thing you are to me
The time has come to destroy your simple entitles
A filthy pack of liars and thieves
Crawling in the stench of your own self-deceit
I am the predator and you are all mine to claim
Hunt you down unto the point of extinction
A genocidal warmachine
Wreaking chaos upon those who dare to challenge me

I am vengeance incarnate, your futile world I shall desecrate
I bear the mark of all demons like an aura that drips of venom
I am the bringer of the final war
Your god lies dead in his own SHIT and gore
Rest assure that all of you will die
You insolent fools shall breath no more

Hatred burns within my veins towards your wretched kind
I spread my creed of suffering in this bloodbath so divine

I shall cleanse the earth from the worms of the human breed
Revel in the blood of my sworn enemies
Grind their bones into the dust... bloodlust!

Humanity what have you ever done for me?
Denounced and cursed since my birth for I am not like thee
A proud descendant of the ancient seed
Driven forth by the screams of my enemies
I am the plague that shall grace you with an early grave
Exterminate - brought you all into damnation
A genocidal warmachine
Grinding down all of you who dared to challenge me

Hatred burns within my veins towards your wretched kind
I spread my creed of suffering in this bloodbath so divine
No mercy is shown for the weak in this blood-drenched fatal spell
Tear the flesh off from their limbs and send their souls to hell"

[KT]

"Life is a misery, don't know how it's come to be
Death, the epitome of all of our days
In the past we had no choice to hear or to be the voice
Close your eyes and visualise the demon to arise

You know that sanity is not as it was meant to be
And now that misery has taken a new stand
In the land of a thousand souls we will carry on through the rain
In the sun we will move along with the memories of the slain
When I see this humanity and the evil that they have come to be
We've come to the point of no return and you beg for just...

One more time to escape from all this madness
One more time to be set free from all this sadness
And one last time to be the one who understand
My soul and my spirit will go on, for all of eternity

Foreign the currency, your payment in blood to be
Death is the desitny for all of our ways
In the dark you hide away for who or what you can't say
When I see the power of the demon come alive

You know that sanity is not as it was meant to be
And now that misery has taken a new stand
On the wings of eagles flying staring on to the sun
Reaching for the gold horizon when the war shall be won
Can you see the debautury and the blade of death that has come for thee
In winds of torment forever more you will cry for just...

One more time to escape from all this madness..."

'blood is falling like the rain' - paschendale - iron maiden

i dont know, ive always liked this sentence, gives me the chills when ol brucey sings it
