TWIST OF CAIN
-------------
Yea, yea, yea

Broke commandments
And he tumbled like a toy
Blood

Spreading out
From his forehead to the ground

NOT OF THIS WORLD
-----------------
Not of this world
And nothing bites like I do
Nothing screams out loud
In this empty night
Nothing can keep me from you

And you think that you know
The reason I'm alive
Truth is you only
Know the lies

Not of this world
And nothing can hold it back
I am the dawn upon your bloody beach
Come to pass

Not of this world
For I am nothing known
When the seasons shift
They call my name
To carry me home

And you think that you know
The reason I'm alive
Truth is you only know the lies
And I feel all the things
You could never understand
Choose where you stand
Am I mortal
Are you
Man

Not of this world
Nothing bites like I do
Nothing screams out loud
In this empty night
Nothing can keep me from you

Choose where you stand
Am I mortal
Are you
Man
Yea

Not of this world
For I am nothing known
When the seasons shift
They call my name
To carry me home


SHE RIDES
---------
She rides
Let loose upon the world
She is the night
And my loneliness in bondage
She's black
And sin runs down her back
She rides
From the daylight in chains

She rides the night
She rides the night

She slides
Down inside you skin
In time
She will make you scream
She's death
In a cool black dress
She rides
In the night of your mind

She rides the night
She rides the night

Yea
She'll take you down
She'll take you
She'll take you around

She'll take you down
She'll take you
She'll take you around

She rides
Let loose upon the world
She is the night
And my loneliness in bondage
She's black
And sin runs down her back
She rides
From the daylight in chains

She rides the night
She rides the night

Ooh yea
She'll take you down
She'll take you
She'll take you around

She'll take you down
She'll take you
She'll take you around

She'll take you down
She'll take you
She'll take you around

She'll take you down
She'll take you
She'll take you around


SOUL ON FIRE
------------
Angels fall to earth
World heats down
Cool
Now your heart is cold
Waiting on the summer
Of my soul

Devil-girl you must burn
Burn at the touch
Of autumn's breath
Burn that heart of cold
Simmering in the samhain
Of my soul

Gotta wait
On the samhain of my soul
Gonna bring your world
Down in fire

Angels fall to earth
World heats down
Oh now you heart is cold
Waiting on the summer
Of my soul

Gotta wait
On the samhain of my soul
Gonna bring your world
Down in fire

Gotta wait
On the samhain of my soul
Gonna bring your world
Down in fire

Come wrap my love in your house of ice
Melt you down more than once or twice
Make you shake till worlds align
See your body tremble with the blood on fire
'Cause the season in my veins
Will end your world
To the season of the flames you must pray and learn
Change all the things that you've ever seen
Change all vision
Kill all endings

Gotta wait
On the samhain of my soul, ooh yea
Gonna bring your world
Down in fire

Gotta wait
On the samhain of my soul, ooh yea
Gonna bring your world
Down in fire

Gotta wait
On the samhain of my soul, ooh yea
Gonna bring your world
Down in fire

Gotta wait
On the samhain of my soul, ooh yea
Gonna bring your world
Down in fire


AM I DEMON
----------
Hordes of faces
Empty eyes
I see nothing new
Seasoned schemes of slimy curs
Offer up their flu
Am I beast or
Am I human
Am I just like you
Power seething
Really reeling
Reaching out for you

Am I demon
You need to know

Faces of a million hells
Rage inside these veins
Pounding out deserved pain
To anyone in need
Am I beast or
Am I human
Am I just like you
Power seething
Really reeling
Reaching out for you
Am I demon
Need to know

??
??
Wo-oh, wo-oh

Am I demon
Need to know
??
??
Wo-oh, wo-oh

Every world
And every limb
Torn asunder base
Everything I need is me
Everything I am
Am I beast or
Am I human
Am I just like you
Power seething
Really reeling
Reaching out for you

Am I demon
You need to know
??
??
Wo-oh, wo-oh

Am I demon
Need to know

MOTHER
------
Mother
Tell your children not to walk my way
Tell your children not to hear my words
What they mean
What they say
Mother

Mother
Can you keep them in the dark for life
Can you hide them from the waiting world
Oh mother

Father
Gonna take your daughter out tonight
Gonna show her my world
Oh father

Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till you're bleeding

Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's

Mother
Tell your children to hold my hand
Tell your children not to understand
Oh mother

Father
Do you wanna bang heads with me
Do you wanna feel everything
Oh father

Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till you're bleeding

Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's
Yea

Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Till you're bleeding

Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
Wo-oh
Mother
Yea


POSSESSION
----------
I want to crawl inside your soul
Nestle in your brain
Stand you on your head
Crouch you on all fours

Oh I will walk among your dreams
When you think you are asleep
The invitation of your mind
Beckons me to your sin

All the things that you say and feel

For I will be inside your speech
Say the words you must not say
For I will lurk inside your heart
If you can take it and survive

(spiritus, incubus, ?)
As it must ever be
Oppression
(spiritus, incubus, ?)
It's ever been
Through my oppressive black sleeping
(spiritus, incubus, ?)
It has always been
Possession
(spiritus, incubus, ?)
As it must always be

All the things that you say and feel
Become
Possession - riding
Possession - riding you hard
Possession - riding you on yea

And I will worm inside your skull
Make you beg to be my whore
Do my bidding day and night
If you can take it and survive

(spiritus, incubus, ?)
As it must ever be
Oppression
(spiritus, incubus, ?)
It's ever been
Through my oppressive black sleeping
(spiritus, incubus, ?)
It has always been
Possession
(spiritus, incubus, ?)
As it must always be

All the things that you say and feel
Become
Possession - riding
Possession - riding you hard
Possession - riding onto you
Possession - riding
Possession - riding you hard
Possession - riding you on yea


END OF TIME
-----------
The suffering's here
The wait is gone
The streets are filled
With a hollow song
Got a new death
It lurks outside
Follows me home
Waiting for me

Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea

A hum in the ear
Numbness comes
Feeling like you're almost home
The open arms
Tempting embrace
It's always been
Waiting

Waiting at the end of time for you
And you'll be too
Yea

The suffering's here
The wait is gone
The streets are filled
With a hollow song
Empty world
Of listless night
I pray to thee
I suffer blind

Waiting at the end of time for you
And you'll be too
Yea

Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Right

Waiting at the end of time for you
And you'll be too
Yea

Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea
Lost your soul
Doomed and cold
Yea


THE HUNTER
----------
Call me the hunter
That's my name
Pretty young thing like you
Is my only game
Don't use no love gun
Don't need no kissing
When I get ahold of you honey
Gonna light you up like Christmas
Ain't no use to run, babe
Ain't no use to hide
'Cause I've got you in the sights
Of my
Burning

Call
Me deliverance
That's what I offer thee
Gonna do a million little things to you honey
Your life belongs to me
Don't use no love gun
Don't need no kissing
When I get ahold of you honey
Rip you up to pieces
Ain't no use to run, babe
Ain't no use to hide
'Cause I've got you in the grip
Of my
Endless desire

I don't use no love gun
Don't need no kissing
When I get ahold of you honey
Light you up like Christmas
Ain't no use to run, babe
Ain't no use to hide
'Cause I've got you in the sights
Of my


EVIL THING
----------
I serve my perdition
In this private hell
A thousand angers
Have kept me alive
Carve a hole in your distorted soul
I'm here to bang it
Yea

The blessing is a curse
Seduction and thirst
Feeds the hunger

Take a little caution
When you look my way
See the emptiness in my eyes
And the evil thing
That I bring
Soulless light
Yea

Warning is come upon your heels
Feel your dreams slip away
Take a little caution
In the dead of night
Let the darkness rise again

Want the needing
Want to feel you near

Want you
Need your
Life
Want you, need your
Life
Feed it to me

Yea
Blessing is a curse
Seduction and thirst
Feeds the hunger

Take a little caution
When you look my way
See the emptiness in my eyes

Yea
Yea
Want the needing
Want to feel you near
Want your soul

Want your
Need your
Life
Want you, need your
Life, yea
