Reality crashed down, as you drown inside your pain. Ending without a sound, die for what you held in vain. No longer shall you rise, your fate is sealed today. I bring about demise, no god shall keep you safe. The source of all your fears, shadows of long ago. The source of all your fears, your destiny is sewn. (Chorus) This is the end of tyranny, crushing all you stood for. I bring down lies, deceit, not afraid as before. Fear the light as it burns your flesh. For your sin, you'll never rest. Damnation grants you suffering. As your life lies crumbling. No longer you're enslaved, as chains fall off your soul. The light that's now engraved, makes you stronger, makes you whole. Never to fear again, the pain of yesterday. Never to fear again, the healing touch of grace. (repeat chorus)

The flies they tear across battlefields, skin turns to as as victims wail. The armies rise, the armies fall, slaughtered as lambs, I kill them all. There's no escape from the death that ensues, talons tear flesh, your body's reduced. Streets are now crimson as blood flows strong, all trace of life is fucking gone. (Chorus) I am all you fear, I kill all that's dear... Creator of flames, your world's now engulfed. The purest of hate, mankind is lost. Pain is eternal, never to rest, I am Fire, I am death. Smoldering waste of city in flames, an omen for all empires around. The mountains you've moved, now you're entombed, hellfires rage from out of the sky. (Chorus) I am all you fear, I kill all that's dear. Flee not, you're gonna die. I am fire, I am death. I am all you fear, I am fire, I am death.

Darkness, fills the sky, as the burning dread enslaves the soul. With the slaying of our king, we are left with tidings of woe. Knowing not, what will come, madness swells withing the halls. All for one or none at all, I shall not let kingdom fall. (Chorus) Time to rise, stand and fight, we are here to slay tonight. Show no fear, burn with rage, enemy shall know our hate! Forward, on we march, silent wraiths upon the planes. Fire, in our eyes, with tunnel vision blood lust reigns. Like cattle they flea, peasants line the streets impaled. Death greets all souls, final gasp to no avail. Ashes, all around, bodies fuel the pyres high. Silence, deafening, for no mortal's left alive. With the end of our quest, spirits raised by those atoned. Ignorance shall infest, as enemy is erased from stone. (repeat chorus)

Lamia 03:27
Lamia, succubus of the gods. A treacherous heart, devourer of child flesh. Driven insane, by the slaying of your kin. Never to rest, you spread to all unholiest sin. Feed! Teeth sink, into the child's beating heart. A scream of pain, as the bastard's ripped apart. Drink the blood, to wash away the pain that swells. Sadness fills, to leave you in this desolate hell. Hera grins, seeing what you've become. Never again, to feel the comfort of the sun. A heartless wretch, slayer of a parent's love. No regrets, to all emotion you are numb. You are numb. Lamia, what have you become? Murderer, of the innocent. Devourer, of the living children. Gatekeeper, to the underworld. (repeat) Lamia, succubus of the gods. A treacherous heart, devourer of child flesh. Driven insane, by the slaying of your kin. Never to rest, to spread to all unholiest sin.
