Lyrics by David Bertone
A man bound to armor
The savior of humanity
An apathetic villain
Consumes his curiosity
This mortal man
Roams these caves of fire
So abysmal
He's reached the other side
And your right where he wants you.
Beware for the Lord of Demons
Waits atop his throne macabre
Shadows of the snarling beast
Are becoming clear
Keep thy blade steady
Ignore your feelings of failure.
Sing his requiem.
A man bound to armor
The savior of humanity
An apathetic villain
Consumes his curiosity
This mortal man
Roams these caves of fire
So abysmal
He's reached the other side
And your right where he wants you.
Beware the Lord of Demons,
Beware the Lord...

Lyrics by David Bertone
I know why you slept afraid
Waiting for sirens, alarms
Creatures around keeping you from
speech
In the dark with failure
In the light of panic
Laying cold hands around the fire
Off the man
Misled in the wrong direction
Always searching for an answer
That we can find in death
Immanent in your wait
You can't win!
Perspective misconstrued by tradition
Believe the book
Curse the man on the corner
Shouting, "I've seen paradise!"

A Night To Remember

Lyrics by Johannes Jans
My fangs sink deep, as I drain you of your
mortality
Now drink of my blood
Become a creature of the night
Join me to feast upon the flesh of the
meek
Let me wipe that tear from your cheek
Do not cry for you will not miss the sun
Darkness will guide you, your life’s just
begun.
Metamorphosis to misanthropy
Do not cry for you will not miss the sun
Darkness will guide you, your life’s just
begun.
Now listen child, listen
The night was always your fate
Your new teeth in the moonlight glisten
Now come and feast before it is too late.
Seduce your victims and leave them lying
dead
Your constant hunger for their flesh will
never cease
An eternal night if bloodshed
With life you take your strength does
increase
Kindness, and mercy, from you have fled
No longer human, you are truly beast.
Your former loved ones lye limp between
your jaws
Inhuman monster devouring your past
Tear away the skin to reveal Man’s flaw
Consume the heart
Remove it from the chest.

Lyrics by Johannes Jans (*Lines by David
Bertone)
I stand in the highest tower
Surveying the silent battlefield
The soil now quenched
With the sacrifice of nations
Strewn with the bodies of the fallen.
Cessation
A canvass painted red
*Trailing away from our great sorcerer’s
tomb
*Led by the vengeance still left in our
souls
I feel a swelling pressure in my chest
Rising up into my throat
Releasing itself from my mouth
A scream of wretchedness.
Will this land ever heal?
Or will this disease that is humanity
Infect our only hope?
The black sky whispers
More blood shall be shed.

Enjoy The Extinction

Lyrics by David Bertone and Johannes
Jans
How ironic is this?
The ones we've buried now bury us
The undead reborn carnivorous cannibals
How will we survive this
The ones we'e outlived now consume us
A breathing corpse with sunken eyes
open wide.
Instinctual determination pulls it through
the dirt
Face rotten and hungry it rises from its
grave
Instinctual determination makes it walk
this earth
There's no wet tongue to lye within its
mouth
Though its teeth do ache for flesh.
Hide the children and grab the guns
This is not a joke no, this is not for fun
Gather your courage and come to arms
This is your fate fight for the human race.
They will show no mercy
Oh yeah they will eat your brains
So protect your thoughts
Protect your veins
They will never stop coming
They will never rest
Devouring humans
Our bones they digest.
Unexplainable reanimation of the
deceased
We are all doomed
This is Armageddon the beginning of the
end
We are all doomed.
You will soon be one of them
So sit back enjoy the extinction.

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians!
