 1.  The Third of the Storms (Evoked Damnation)



     (Lyrics by Tom Gabriel Fischer)       

     (Music by Tom Gabriel Fischer)



 Three days of absolute eclipse

 Introduce the evoked tribunal

 Hailstorms proof.  They told us the truth



 REFRAIN:

 Total destruction

 Mankind to Hell

 Blind and insane

 The misguided repent

 But it's a bit late



 In the heat of infernal lightnings

 And in the shadows of poisoned clouds

 The world will die under the sword of destiny



 REFRAIN



 Go out and see, the omens are here

 A church is red, like blood of an angel

 The rich and the poor, both will fall

 Into the flames of malice



 REFRAIN



----------------------------------------------------------

 2.  Massacra     



     (Lyrics by T. G. Fischer)

     (Music by T. G. Fischer)



 In moments of reflection

 It all unfolds to me

 I walk down through my mind

 And feel a bittercold fear

 What mankind did with pretence

 Of religion and belief



 REFRAIN:

 Away is the sun

 Endless the night

 Mankind's massacra

 Intelligence is dead



 There have been satanic rites

 In blood.  Inverted crosses

 Expulsion of all mortals

 The "good" side isn't better

 Holy inquisitors on arbitrary command

 Through all blasphemic centuries



 REFRAIN



 REFRAIN



 Destruction and hate

 Sewage of faith

 Ignorant souls

 The decline goes on

 Man will never learn

 That religion's created by man



 REFRAIN



---------------------------------------------------------

 3.  Triumph of Death     



     (Lyrics by T. G. Fischer)

     (Music by T. G. Fischer)



 When you have been down in your grave... alive

 Your mind decays and you're the coffin's slave

 And when, at midnight, an uncanny bell tolls

 Terrible noises, the dark graveyard calls



 Limbs break through the dirt

 Decay stinks like hell

 Dark creatures in the fog

 Crusted blood on the dead



 Triumph of death!

 Triumph of death!



 Eurynomos sends his souls

 Buried by horrible mistakes  (Let me out)

 You feel you're eaten by worms

 And the night's alive again



 When you have been down in your grave... alive, alive, alive

 Your mind decays and you're MY coffin's slave

 And when, at midnight, an uncanny bell tolls

 Terrible noises, the dark graveyard calls... you, you, you, you, you



----------------------------------------------------------

 4.  Aggressor    



     (Lyrics by T. G. Fischer)

     (Music by T. G. Fischer)



 Was it tomorrow

 Or will it be yesterday

 When abolished, rotten instincts

 Will, for the last time, be awake

 And malice, slander, and hate

 Will rule the ignorant heart



 REFRAIN:  

 Aggressor -    Deceiver of Reality   - Aggressor

 Aggressor -  Inverter of Protection - Aggressor  



 The final chapter is yet unwritten

 But the trail leads toward greed

 Who will be the traitor

 How many, all of them?

 Ruthless is the creation

 Created through pale ages



 REFRAIN



 Duplicated in confusion

 Horizons of black fire

 Thorns in the chosen's eye

 Stench of false hails

 Decline of all thrones

 When only perception can survive



 REFRAIN



 Was it still tomorrow

 Or yet will it be yesterday

 When abolished, rotten instincts

 Were, for the last time, ruling minds

 Then... eternal silence

 And the future remains the past



 REFRAIN



 Aggressor
