(Guitar Solo Lorz)
Underneath a blood red moon.
Rotten bodies, flesh of doom.
With burning lust to desecrate.
Profane rites, the dead awake.
* Necromantic Ritual *
You´re dead, deceased and torn apart.
I taste your flesh, a kiss of death.
With evil spells, the dead will rise.
Spawned by necromantic rites.
* Necromantic Ritual *
(Guitar Solo Guerra)
With rusty blade I shed your skin.
Tearing out what´s within.
Releasing demons from inside.
My morbid body sacrifice.
* Necromantic Ritual *
(Guitar Solo Lorz)

FINAL WAR - Live 2019
04:38
|

Violent - the war is raging on.
Taken - the enemy by storm.
A trail of destruction.
Trenches - drowning in mud.
Body´s - covered in blood.
Fire - is burning through the night.
Marching - together side by side,
into devastation.
Taken - the enemy by storm.
Violent - the war is raging on ... and on and on.
* REFRAIN *
Defiant without fear, still marching on.
For bloodshed and destruction, we shall overcome.
Descending, no way back, here we stand to face the truth.
Nothing will remain, the human race exists no more.
No escape from this war, there is no turning back.
To be in mortal agony, we´re ready for attack.
Bloodshed and damnation, smell of death is in the air.
Nuclear destruction. Devastation everywhere.
* REFRAIN *
(Guitar Solo Guerra)
* REFRAIN *

We lived with the dead, arise from the grave.
The company raise hell with eyes full of hate.
We bring you destruction, suffering and pain.
We are poisoning your blood,
long forgotten our name.
We are the living dead, we do deeds of disgust.
From the soil to the skyline our world turns to dust.
Listen to the words, we cast our final spell.
We´ve come to take your life.
Your souls are damned in hell.
* REFRAIN *
We´ve come to trade your flesh
HAIL TO THE COMPANY
Welcome the lord of blood
RISE OF THE FLESHGOD
We´ve come to take your souls
HAIL TO THE COMPANY
We are flesh traders
RISE OF THE FLESHGOD
You only can survive with our sign on your skin.
The terror of the living dead, the slaughter begins.
Crawling death, creeping. Remember our name.
Infected creatures walk the earth,
infecting human brains.
* REFRAIN *

MY FUNERAL - Live 2019
04:21
|
|
||
I was born into a world of human misery.
I´ve never been redeemed, I never felt free.
I´m tired of humanity, I´m tired of my life.
I take it in my hands, I force myself to die.
I open my veins, a kiss of the blade.
Goodbye to all you hypocrites, your ugly faces fade.
Blood is pouring down, all colors turn to grey.
My last words are laughter as life slips away.
* REFRAIN *
One step inside my grave. One step away from human race.
This is the highlight of the day. Now welcome at my funeral.
(Guitar Solo Guerra)
* REFRAIN *
(Guitar Solo Guerra)
Ladies and gentleman, this is my death.
Now you‘re welcome at my funeral.
Now my eyes are closed, surrounded by black.
From inside the coffin there ain´t no turning back.
I celebrate this ritual, a good place to rot.
Maybe I will rest in peace or maybe I will not.
* REFRAIN *

Blood is the message, blood is my sin.
Constricting burden from long time ago.
Crushing reliance with nails on my skin.
My heir is legend, my victim are you.
The ritual of killing, the one I know best.
Predictions of diviners have clearly told.
Dig out the corpse of my mother distressed
to hail what her loins have born.
* REFRAIN *
Kneel down to the king
Sacrifice your flesh and bones
No judgement, no sin
Obey the bloody crown
Master of man, destroyer of worlds
Your nightmare from hell
I am your king!
The demon from hell, obvious to me.
Never I´ve doubted the truth.
The need to survive, like the legacy told.
There´s nothing to win and to lose.
* REFRAIN *
(Guitar Solo Guerra)
You cannot blame me for what I will do,
for what I have done in the past.
Salvation of souls will be never allowed
as long as my kingdom will last.
* REFRAIN *
I am your king!

The world bursts into flames, human being turns to dust.
The end is near, it´s coming. All the living shall be dead.
Raging fire rises up as blood rains from the sky.
The world shall be a hell of flames. Soon mankind will die.
* REFRAIN *
Possessed by fire - by fire
Possessed by fire - by fire
Possessed by fire - by fire
Possessed by fire
Hear the sound of darkness grumbles where horizons end.
Tormented screams of tortured souls bow down in blazing flames.
The gates of hell are open wide, comes deep down from below.
All life shall be devoured, withered in the black abyss.
* REFRAIN *
Possessed by fire - we are born.
Possessed by fire - we take control.
Possessed by fire - we touch the sky.
Possessed by fire - we will die.
(Guitar Solo Lorz)
Dominion of humanity shall fall, just ashes will remain.
We claimed the earth and judge ourselves, the circle starts again.
Possessed by fire - by fire
We are possessed by fire

KNOCHENMANN - Live 2019
02:59
|
|
||
Gehüllt in Schemen, schwarz gewandt
durchschreite ich Der Toten Land.
Es lockt die bleiche Knochenpracht,
durchdringt gar funkelnd tiefste Nacht.
Kreuze, Götzen, Kerzenschein. Schier endlos such ich mein Gebein.
Die Namen in den Stein geritzt, in welchen wurde ich geschnitzt?
* Ich bin der Knochenmann. Ich habe Knochen an. *
Dort ein frischer Hügel thront. Die Gruft darunter, neu bewohnt.
Da liegt´s, mein Grab in dunkler Nacht. So leg ich an, der Schaufel Blatt.
* Ich bin der Knochenmann. Ich habe Knochen an. *
Ich hebe aus, die tiefe Gruft. Ein Hölzern Sarg dringt an die Luft.
Gelöst von Haut und Fleischeslast liegt vor mir dar, die Knochenpracht.
(Guitar Solo Lorz)
Im Leben wie im Tode mein,
sind Geist und Körper nun vereint.
Ich dringe tief, tief ins Skelett.
Erheb mich aus dem nassen Bett.
Der Sinn aus Sagen und Gedichten
weiß stets von Geistern zu berichten.
In Kinderzimmern unter Betten,
dort werde ich mich nun verstecken.
* Ich bin der Knochenmann. Ich habe Knochen an. *

They came at night and tore me from my dreams.
I did not know, what they have planned with me.
I felt their anger, their never ending wrath.
And I think to myself: this means the end, my death.
Endless Pain. Eternal Darkness.
I hear them scream: „Burn the witches down!“
The fire burns, I can feel it through the night.
They scream: „Burn the witch!“
BURN THE WITCH
BURN THE WITCHES
I was tortured many times again and again.
I must confess my agony should end at last.
Now they come, lead me to my last way.
On earth I will revenge. For this they‘ll have to pay.
Endless Pain. Eternal Darkness.
I hear them scream: „Burn the witches down!“
The fire burns, I can feel it through the night.
They scream: „Burn the witch!“
BURN THE WITCH
LET THE WITCHES BURN
(Guest Guitar Solo Wehner)
They did not know who I was and what I do.
They would not ever be allowed to challenge me.
I will destroy them, Satan stands on my side.
I will follow him forever, his dying bride.
Endless Pain. Eternal Darkness.
I hear them scream: „Burn the witches down!“
The fire burns, I can feel it through the night.
They scream: „Burn the witch!“
BURN THE WITCH
BURN THE FUCKING WITCH

Ich steige empor, treib den Sternen entgegen.
Nur der Mond scheint mir hell auf meinen Wegen.
Meine Seele entrinnt meinem sterbenden Leib.
durch Aeonen, durch Raum (und) durch Zeit.
Ich entfliehe der Welt, die aus Schmerzen gebaut.
Lass die Hülle zurück - aller Lasten befreit.
Stoss ab alles leben, es verblasst was mal war.
Auf dem Weg in die Träume die ich einstmals gebar.
Mein Geist erhebt sich, Schwingen breiten sich weit.
Werd von Stille geleitet, (bin) vom Leben befreit.
Ein glühender Schweif zieht durch Zeit und durch Raum.
Auf der suche nach Freiheit - dem endlosen Traum.
Flieg durch luftige Höhen, wie ein Rabe dahin.
Durch Gebirge und Täler, nur Erlösung im Sinn.
Der Gewissheit entgegen, endlich frei zu sein.
Ein Gefühl, ich komm näher, bald schon bin ich daheim.
Es fallen die Lider ein allerletztes Mal
Durch den Atem entweichend, still und starr liegt Er da.
Ein Blick auf den Leichnam, erloschen (ist) die Glut.
Zum Abschied wink ich leise, ziehe dankend meinen Hut.
Ich ward geboren zu Leben in Schmerz und in Pein
Wähl den Tod zur Erlösung um endlich frei zu sein
Erlösung
Es fallen die Lider ein allerletztes Mal
Durch den Atem entweichend, still und starr liegt Er da.
Ein Blick auf den Leichnam, erloschen (ist) die Glut.
Zum Abschied wink ich leise, ziehe dankend meinen Hut.
