The Tomb Within

[Music and Lyrics: Reifert]

You're dying inside
Every heartbeat closer to the last
Immortality a fallacy
A perverted pipe dream of the past

[Chorus:]
The tomb, it needs it's hunger
An unforgiving force
Your blown mind reels in torture
True doom locked on its course

Your blood it flows in torment
A testament to weakness
Your deathday clock is ticking
you'll surrender to your creatures

[Chorus]

[Lead - Cutler / Lead - Coralles]

Your graveyard eyes unseeing
your mind drowns in the crypt
construction of the perfect beast
Your senses have been stripped
Look over your shoulder
Damnation's waiting there
Your run slows to a crawl
The casket calls to your despair

Abyssmal hopelessness - Down on bloody knees
There's madness in your soul - A swarming of disease

Cemetery visions
Eyes peeled red and open
Curled up in a coffin
Mind and soul are broken

[Chorus]

Merging with the void while encloaked by total doom
Feel the reaper's breath as you slip inside the tomb
Wake up dead and mourning with a knife tight in your fist
thank the blood red skies
For with death you have been kissed...

My Corpse Shall Rise

[Music: Cutler, Lyrics: Reifert]

My corpse shall rise!

In the cemetery now you have arrived
To finally see my flesh from which you stole the life
Though you never were discovered, you're still free
I've got a curse on you, I've haunted all your dreams

You can't believe I'm gone
You must be sure, it must be real
Panic stricken, to the grave
The truth must be revealed

[Lead - Coralles]

With shaking hands and sickening thoughts
You find my resting place
With pounding heart and bloodshot eyes
The shovel desecrates
The time has come to face reality
And visit death
To see my corpse and stop the dreams
To see it knows no breath

[Lead - Cutler]

At your feet, uncovered is the box
You're almost paralysed with fear
Feel the bile creep up your throat
Lift the lid and know I'm here

I lie here rotting, maggots burrowing, feeding, swarming
You can't hold back the nausea
Help won't find you
Stomach twisting, violent retching, defiled by vomit
Now my vengeful corpse begins to rise
I've been waiting here for you
Now it's time to see you die

Seven Skulls

[Music: Cutler, Lyrics: Reifert]

I've got seven skulls
One is staring back at me
Atop the rotting stairs
Is where my family waits for me

At night I go to see them
(No, I am not insane...)
Unlock the door forbidden
That only knows my name
This room is filled with knowledge
Of nightmares, dreams and fears
They all flow through my mind
The real world disappears

I've got seven skulls
seven boxes in a row
Seven spirits free
I'll join them soon, they call to me

One night they made me do it
I woke at four A.M.
I felt their desperate pleading
Their prisons tortured them
They wanted to be free
They said I was the one
My brain was filled with voices
As I picked up my gun

Human Genocide

[Music: Cutler/Reifert, Lyrics: Reifert]

All human life is engulfed in dead flesh
Mindless corpses with worms in their head
Up from the grave the nightmare has begun
A woman screams as the dead eat her son

[Chorus:]
Doomsday is here, the dead walk among us
The people are dying to rise up again
The crypts breathe new life
As the inhabitants emerge
Creating a hell beyond comprehension
Ripping and shredding the flesh of the living
Corpses are walking to prey on the live blood
Decapitation of women and children
Flesh eating zombies devour their guts

Feasting on flesh and bathing in blood
Where there was life, now there is none
Maggots burrowing deep inside
The dead take over, human genocide

[Chorus]

[Lead - Cutler]

Mutant Village

[Music and Lyrics: Reifert]

Desert screams on plains of doom
Your mind will snap beyond the dunes
A village ahead, the stench of disease
Nauseating wasteland, distorted dead trees

[Chorus:]
One eyed vultures feeding
On twisted malformed prey
Are these hallucinations
In this place of foul decay

An image in shadows, radiation diseased
A figure of sickness... No eyes, nose or teeth
You see it comes forward, you freeze up with fear
The horror's upon you as others appear

[Chorus]

An array of the nuclear deformed
Cursed with plague, with wounds they are adorned

A vision of hell, their food you will become
Cannibals beneath a sickened sun
Mental lapse, this nightmare can't be real
Sanity cracked, your brain will not be healed

[Lead - Coralles / Lead - Cutler]

Your dried up scream makes not a sound
their hunger is upon you now
Horrific limbs and faces twist
Your throat is slashed, cease to exist
