Lyrics:
...The Storms Are Gathering

don´t waste your energy
invisible walls of suffering
you offer me eternal darkness
an inferno that never ends

let me be your dark angel
I will lick away your tears
I´m at your side in your darkest hours
to tell you truths you don´t want to hear

leave my way

the bitter taste of a painful life
burning in the flame you hold
there is no turning back
release your anger, you will not fail

no time to run and hide
...the storms are gathering

(music by FOS, words by Rene)


Cold Sweat

as I wander through this maze
of broken mirrors, broken glass
trickles of red blur my sight
my skin is torn by shards

the cuts go deeper than they seem
my shattered image on the wall
can´t feel the pain, my body is numb
so I go on with my aimless quest

don´t know what I am looking for.
don´t know why I am here
stumbling on the verge of sanity
one step away from free fall

I try to ignore my uselessness
the senselessness of it all
I fight hard against my inner self
the urge to make it all end

now I´m crawling on my knees
there´s the promise of salvation
in every fragment of glass, pointing at my wrist
I´m striving to escape- by any means...

(music by FOS, words by Ulli)


Living The Pain

go on like that, cross my path
one more time and you will die
cross the line if you dare
feel my fury, feel my hate

you won´t live to tell - what I did to you
you won´t live to see - what will be left of you

I´ll rip open your face and crack your skull.
I will slit your wrists and skin you alive
mark my words, I´ll break your neck
just one more step and I will bury you

don´t push me too far, I´m about to explode
get out of my way or you are next

(music by FOS, words by Ulli)


The Price Of Innocence

protest taken to the streets
turned them into battlegrounds
an attempt to reign what once was theirs
opposing countless threats
no hesitation in their onslaught
there is only one law
uncompromisingly taken to the extreme
now warlike violence reddens the morning haze
while boiling blood drowns all common sense
rats are fighting over the bones of the slain
the plague is weaving a shroud
to hide the innumerable dead
the moment is here, long awaited
strive for purification
innocence bought at the ultimate price
no one is innocent

(music by FOS, words by Ulli)


Masters Of Chaos

we slaughtered god, we killed the devil
satan begged for mercy and god cried for help
angels fell to death, struck down by our claws
demons tried to hide, but could not flee their fate
we crushed dimensions, burned the worlds
time is just a word, we bend and twist reality
this is the end of the world as you know it

point a gun at your head- pull the trigger
we await you on the other side
join our ranks of immortal fame
and kill some gods with us
warriors of the void- nothing is holy
souls are worthless, we have no masters
time is just a word, we bend and twist reality
this is the end of the world as you know it

join us, join the immortal
we are the masters of chaos
we don´t need no leader
we don´t need a guiding light
we will march eternally
we will be the end

(music by FOS, words by Ulli)


Followed By Hell

illusions, fake, beautiful lies
we try to alter our reality- success denied
the urge to be special, to be the one
dashing towards the downward spiral

lights fade out, white turns to black
burn the bridges to common sense
the moment is now, why learn from the past
and after us? why waste a thought

that will be the future´s domain

today we are striving for our fall
but will we find it? find salvation?
everybody desires to die
but the biting pain is fleeing and hiding

in the end our fissured horizon will unleash
dark clouds of perverted stench
and pain will come upon all of us
and there will be pain and suffering

(we are) followed by hell
