Verse 1A The Hateful Dead have risen out the grave. They’ve come back to feast upon your flesh. The apocalypse is now. Verse 1B Bleed it out. Bleed it out. Can’t you see them haunting you? Verse 1C I see the dead walk every single day. Outcast, outlaws, rabid packs of apes. Fighting for slops in the dirt. Pre-Chorus They want to make you just like them. Because the dead will always hate the living. Useless, soulless, worthless and empty. The dead will walk in this hell, hell, hell, hellhole. Chorus Primal darkness, vicious fervor. Ruby to red, purple to black. Abyssal shades, unmasked in the wastes. Pile of bones, discarded skulls. So completely numb. Undone and incomplete. This dreadful blackened night, so suddenly a crypt. I dance at the grave that you emptied. Sever back your wrists. Amputate your limbs. None can end their hunger. And through none shall they live again. Verse 2A The end of great humanity is already here. Like a spreading virus, watch us disappear. Aching alone, surrounded by crowds. Verse 2B Deny. I defy. I’m not dead like you. Verse 2C Hollow words, bleeding words, you’ve all become a victim. Preyed upon, swallowed down, you’ve bought that fucking lie. I’m watching you turn before my eyes. Bridge A They’re dead. Dead. They’re Dead. They’re the Hateful Dead Torn by incompletion, they all regret their lives. Let them fucking starve. Let them feed the Earth. Sing their songs of glass. They’re broke beyond repair. Infected and undead, I’ll never buy a word. They speak out for all their pain. A great cathedra of squealing beasts. They’ll feast upon your sanity with blood and shame and sins yet to be paid. They’re dead. Dead. They’re the Hateful Dead. Bridge B The world is full of bleeding gutters, That offer purpose to those who cannot find their own. Bridge C In that gutter of useless paragons, Is the great injustice that men mistake for God. Crying out in bleeding lines for one last birth. One last birth. One last birth. Crawling and breaking through their cannibal divides. Crying out to live, live again, in the broken glass of their wasted life. Verse 3A And so the dead remain, whoring out the Earth. To draw upon your flesh, and rape your sense of worth. And now the great hunger is yours. Verse 3B The moon is full, the mirror black, reflection staring back. The empty eyes of worthlessness where pain is all you had. A darkened void, nothing left , feasted flesh. The ghosts that line your steps. A haunted Jesus that never wept.

Verse 1 I in the limbo of the Christless righteous, I in the wake of this terrestrial Hell. Terminal, and cannibal content. The grave is where you stop and I begin. Prechorus A The doomsday clock creeps along, Because we live in a world that forsakes it's altruists, Distant and haunted as they seem. Prechorus B And all of the blood, the lies, comfort you to sleep. The devils assigned, fading, distant and misshapen. When I lay you down, like a beautiful lie, The lost paradise, The Deathly angels haunt our bones. The kingdom of darkness will take us both. Chorus Never.Never Bleed. Never give the Skeleton promises. Never Bleed. No more dead roses, Gone the way of all flesh. Verse 2 Just another shadow in the swelling sea of shadows, Just another darkest night undone by sin. Cacophonous, the mounting silence, Blood and bone pale night just like a crypt. Bridge You’re bleeding out in empty ascetic lines. Bleed like you’ve bled one thousand times. When you break, break like a man.

Verse 1 A Preacher. The old slingers say that empty streets have been, And empty streets remain, Monoliths to some ancient thing. Something lost in the waiting. The screaming river of hate. Verse 1B Addicts. Of apocalypse digging our own tombs and raping the dead. All humans speak destruction. Universal speech. Now hear us cry out in tongues. Pre-Chorus Come worship destruction. And destroy we will. Finally fearless. Chorus Can’t you hear the screams? The pulsing groan of the phobic currents, Bloody sand will bury you like concrete. Choking down the belly of the great beast. (Second time only) There’s blood in the Nile. There’s blood in the Nile. Oh, there’s blood in the Nile. A new lord in the death lands. Verse 2 I Am. An endangered species, Waiting for you to join us. Nearly extinct, but finally free. The rising crimson tide. To put your bloodlust to the test. Bridge Behold what is birthed by man. The determinately damned. Feed the feast of the rising fiend. Choking down the great belly of the beast. No better than you could have dreamed it. Far beyond what you ever imagined. Just as pigs so fat and foolish, All will hail the new age of ruin. Outro No better than you could have dreamed it. Far beyond what you ever imagined. Just as pigs so fat and foolish, All will hail the new age of ruin.

Verse 1 I am the destroyer. You have never known my name. Verse 1B All these things you let divide you, But I am your common place. Verse 1C I have worn so many faces. But everything you’ve heard is a lie. I’ve been called the Devil. Every prayer lost in my eyes. Pre-Chorus 1A I give all religion reason to fear the dark. Every time I walk among you stretching out my dancing claws. Pre-Chorus 1B I was there in Egypt’s plagues. I called forth the endless flood. Bringing my disease in Black Death waves, but you’d be foolish to call me a God. My true name is Death. CHORUS I am Death. You’ve heard of me. I spread my filthy wings. Now sleep. Drown. Descending down. I am Necro. You’ve heard of me. I am Necro. Pig filthy beast. Let me feast, feed, only teeth. Kings, priests, common man. You cannot imagine how you dance for me. Verse 2A I made the great cancers. Your old age and brittle bones. Verse 2B Seek my name in genocide. Endless gravestones are my prize. Verse 2C I will never know defeat. The only one of the ancient beasts. All have thought me wicked, malicious tyrant fiend. Pre-Chorus 2A I am what you make me. Either way I’ll make you bleed. Haunting all the days of man, the wretched kingdom saved or damned. Pre-Chorus 2B In my throne of paling skulls, Six stud crown for the six foot holes. In my eyes a haunted knowing, That all lives wither in my name’s recalling. My true name is Death. Bridge My eyes bring eternal sleep. I have met every man. All things submit to me. My great unknown and endless deep.

Verse 1A From the blood red weeping sky the locust came. Twisted flesh and mangled shrieks gave way to plague. For now you see, for how I’ve done. Dark addiction like an angry God. It lives. And it is like none other. Verse 1B The great purging had come at last. The ninth plague of Egypt and the reasons for the past. The filthified, demented vice, my whores of choice. Locked away inside myself, my flesh made prison. Underneath I play the beast. Pre-Chorus Seven comes and seven passed. The thunderstorm of hail and fire. Eight descends and eight rides the wind. The next blood storm of the ravening locusts. Come cosmic dark. Bringing endless pain. Chorus Nine swallows all and nine never lifts. Three days of darkness that numb all the addicts. But when I choose to see, my haunted skin disease, The drug recalls me, the whore me, the slut me, the stillborn fiend. This new burdened leper, I’ve become a corpse. The shadow covers all, and I kiss her thorns. Verse 2A The beauty beast I bow beneath, her bleeding broken hands. Winding shadow sacrosanct for how she feeds the damned. They know no better, feast no better. I do know better and even still I crave her needled demoness. Verse 2B Upon us junkies she gave ten plagues. Before the ninth had vanished, we made room for the tenth. Just like Egypt, just like wicked pharaoh. From out the sky, from out the dark, came the great dying. Bridge/Outro The ever great wailing. The tortured crying out. The great destroyer bringing endless sorrow. In her ten plagues of addiction.

Intro And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say ‘Come and see.’ Behold the fabled Lamb. The fourth seal is open. Verse 1 A I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, ‘Come and see.’ Come and see. I looked and behold, the great ashen horse. And the name cast upon him was Death. And hell followed with him. Last of the legend riders. Peeling back the sky with bleeding iron. Verse 1B Pale Rider. With the eyes of the devil. They were given power, fourth of the Earth. To kill with sword, famine, and pestilence and wild beasts. Verse 1C Behind that horseman a great mouth of darkness. The cosmic mouth of the hell that awaits the final purging of man. Chorus I saw him ride out, the last of the four. His brothers victory, and pestilence and war. The mighty horses pounding forward. Breathing out eternal blizzard. Snorting out in brimstone with the haunted eyes of fire. The Great Pale Rider. And he spoke to me. 3rd chorus: ...snorting out in brimstone, masterless eyes of abyss. The great pale rider. And he gave me life. Verse 2A Do you feel death? Do you feel that dark abyss? Walking across all the brilliant designs, The testing of your flesh and the strength of your spine. Cryptic messages of life paid for with my blood. Verse 2B Pale Rider. With the eyes of the devil. At the mouth of hell I stood judgment, For the times I died, and walked with the ghosts. But I would not go. Verse 2C Would not go with the lost. Would not submit to the hell I have known. The rider’s passing I never feared. Breakdown/and Outro I earned my life through blessings of war. Kingdom Come. Kingdom Come. Let it all fall down. Verse 3A Pale rider. With the eyes of the devil. I never failed. I never bowed. I will die with promise. I will die with honor. I will die will like a man. Verse 3B And so the rider made way for my grave. As the dirt fell over me, he gave me the peace I had made. In that all consuming waste.

Verse 1 Welcome to the congregation. You have gathered here to witness the hanging. The great casting down. The great casting out. Lowered down into the river, the hollow void of eyeless crowns. For in that place, the blind man is King. Pre-Chorus That same insistent reaper, eternal in the harvesting. From that place there is no return, A death that is only the beginning. (Second time only) There is no return from where angels go to die. Chorus So my order is given. And so carried is my order. Tie the knot on your halo. Like the blind man now so shall you see. I severed your wasted wings, haunted by how you scream. I severed your wasted wings. Gift of flight you did not value. Eat your wings, choke them down. In the darkened kingdom shall you crawl. I severed your wings, haunted by how you scream. I severed your wings. Verse 2 Rise into the great divine, look upon it a final time. Blood angel cloaked in the sun, binding in blindness to the pale dragon. And sink below the brilliant turnings of paradise. Painful waters of extinction will tomb you. Preacher And so, now we see, a once great divining. A blessed thing, an angel with splendid and beautiful wings. He held the favor of our Blood stained God. And now, for such a great sin of pride and hubris, such a yearning to know, and rule, and to be adored above all others, above all others. Even the great God on His eternal throne. So taken was the sin, and so swift the punishment. Doomed astray. Buried beneath a demonic carcass for all his wasted and slaughtered seeming. He hangs from his halo. That noose overgrown and cruel. Below his chin, slaughtered there. I give you the fallen angel. And below the waters in which we drown him now, you will hear him cry out. Desperately cry out to our God. The same God which casts him down. And in that casting down, there is no return. There is no return from where angels go to die. Twisting away atop the stinking boneyards Beneath his curling horns in that shadow shall you remain in eternal darkness. Angel/Demon And so... slaughtered as I am, I see the true betrayer. It is not Lucifer. Not Satan. No Demon or Devil. But The He that will entertain challenge from none other. The Almighty He in the disgusting heavens. I am unearthed. I am lifeless risen. And with scattered horns replaced, I am the powerless plea in the night. I am He. He the carnal. He the ravage. He the superior. I am He the chosen Devil. And I will destroy you, great creator. Not by challenging your throne, but taking from you all that you love. All your little darlings upon the Earth. And I will come for them, in their weakest moments. In a great gnashing of teeth, I will devour all of them. You have made them a contest between us. And I swear upon the morning star... I will rise again from my wretched scorn. I will give you nothing. But take from you... EVERYTHING. Their bones will build my palace. Their eyes will stud my crown. One thousand bleeding earths will be mine. I will rise from the boiling sea of pain and torment.. that place of peeled skin and hollowed carcasses. I will rise, and when I do... by the endless gallons... There. Will. Be. Blood.

Verse 1 Six foot hole, doomsday clock. Widowed carnival of blood. To the bone, branded carcass. Eyes like two gun holes in her skull. Those gray eyes, empty hollows, A corpse given sight, drawn and pale. Dancing cadaver. Bone caverns filled with despair. Drawn upon the cracking clay. Verse 1B You’re lost in the echoes. Devil’s at your spine. Smell of sacrifice, the bleeding place. (Bleeding place) Decapitation. Beheaded mysteries. Eroded effigies. Wisdom comes. (Wisdom comes) Pre-chorus The great darkness is waiting to break you, Like others break. No release. No reprieve. I see the door. I see the wolf. The same frigid wind still haunts us both. (Haunts us both) Chorus Haunt me, In the bleeding place. Give me your ghosts, And what you fear the most. Because I am fractured here, too. And just as lost as you. So haunt me like they haunted you. Verse 2 Midnight haunter, digging graves, A walk for your pain like tiny dead lanterns of yesterday. Addicted to pain, undone by fear. You fracture beneath all the sweet little ways that you lie your way to sleep. Secrets buried in your skin. Bridge Secrets buried in your skin. Like blood running black in the darkest fantasy, I burned down in the night that came. Temptation returned and locked the door. We became ash. I still haunt me, all things never buried. The six foot hole, haunted by every word. Sick with secrets in these rivers of blood. Six feet is never deep enough. Secrets. Whispers. Addict. Buried. Secrets buried in your skin burn me down. . . . Outro Do you believe in ghosts? Recalled like a blind man sees, Those shifting echoes. Swallowed down like a great throat of darkness. Secrets. Whispers. Addict. Buried. Secrets buried in your skin. Burn me down.
