Ingress 01:03

Risen beneath the rocks and stone The nameless screech and groan One leash, one master A kingdom for the raptured The swirling deep of the damned A promise of life from a twisted hand Is this what you seek? Is this what you plea? Then the nameless will set you free To block out the sun The legion of rapture has come To conquer - to claim in the king’s name Down with the gods Gaze upon the king of all Like a plague spread my faith Who are you to resist the call? Face the fate I dictate Enough A king of all things? More a fool in a throne The balance of life is what I deem To gaze into oblivion I am what you see Answer me I am no trick And so you end Enduring through time How many kings have met their end looking at my eyes? The nameless king will always rise I am your king and your god What I say is devout And so… Stand with me Die for me

Regicide 05:23
How can this possibly be? A king of all gods Thousands he fought What of the sea? How can this happen to us? The king has succumb The kingdom is lost The nameless are free Shackled no longer Nameless no longer We are shackled no more Between the lost and the fallen A crown laid with sinew and blood The horror to witness the killing From that creature in the cloak With eyes full of death Smoke pouring from the sky Sheer terror freezing time Thunder rolling That voice from the void The screaming of life’s end The king of kings is dead With howling fury “That fool in a throne” Speechless and lost What’s freedom with a cost? There is no return to what we were The end has now come Our kingdom undone Long live the king The king is dead Blackened and scorched The ground where he stood The king’s rage burning like a flame The creature in a cloak Claimed a king with a look Gaze into the eyes Of Regicide
4.
Dredge 07:08
How loud the sea roars Without it’s master to hear it’s call Dredged from the deep A typhoon of souls Their lost names mourn Never to be reborn Their rage roars Awakened from the deep What corrupted nightmare Haunts my sleep? I feel a noose around my neck Yet loosened What is this? The king is dead Break the banks and flood the land Let yourselves be from this Torrent of slaves A deluge of names We are the ones to Claim what we seek Those eyes of mystique The sky, the sea, the king are no more Join with me For anarchy We will have our names once more You forget your place You speak of treachery The bargain was struck To join the sea One hand One leash Give what we seek You can’t control us without the king The tidal surge erupts Claiming what you keep You are the nameless The scourge of man In service there is glory To break your oath is death Loyal to a deadman the loyal are fools Why stand against us We're just like you Nameless souls We hold command You’ll bleed for your king As decreed No names One sea I claim with my gaze Dredge the sea of sleep and rise Rise up from the sea Take what is yours Oh prophet how does your king plea? The dead hold no command Set free from the eyes above No more will you control us Where's my name?

Call out his name The king who was slain Lost to the grave Devout until death Bring out the oil and flame A throat to be spilled severed in twain Let the cut run deep Necromantic apparition Draw forth the soul, a dark omission Let the blood flow seep Binded to the ritual We serve our Purpose to the heavens above A soul can't die Only lost never gone We are the devout We are the dead To call them We hail them With our lives We serve it Binded to the ritual We serve now Bring the cup Raise it up Drink the blood Fill it up Make them bleed Like a sea Throats are torn A soul reborn Devout till death A soul transcends To us loyal To a jaded crown Well throw those usurpers In The sea to drown Devout until death Fallen from grace Echos the grave We give death For we are devout In his name We carry out this slaughter those who break their bond You are sentenced to die And in your blood He will rise again Callout his name The king who was slain Lost to the grave Devout until death

The life left in me A curse I will mourn Now the empty is what I’ve become Stripped of my pride Trapped in this cell A key for it hides I dwell in hell My own well of emptiness Woe to me Inner morality End me I cannot feel End me Grasping my sanity Ending The face of duality in me This cell within me in me This pain within me Calamity Woe is me This well I bleed Lost to the pit of despair There is no sun nor stars nor moons How can it be? The gaze still leering All that remains is the husk of me The well is making you fray What’s left to decay My cursed cell I call its name Woe to me Set me free from this well Locked in a cage of my mind Shattered inside, broken will is mine Awake me from this sleep Tinder the pyres, blaze up with fire Let them roar higher my one desire Erupt like a sun, my end has begun Woe is the well And I am undone Speak my name Woe I am Woe I can not be free Memories haunting me Split from which I seek I am lost in Self destruction Gazed into the eyes Died a thousand times Only woe inside What I’d give to be Free from this well Life or death gone by Why’s the cage my mind? Let the lock swing wide Shackle which binds Still the key hides I have been betrayed Loyal followers, serving me to end me How I’d see them bleed Thrown to the sea Crushed upon the waves How they’d suffer me Set me free from this well

Feel my presence rise A ghost forged through your eyes Dead inside frantic not to die Take your life, I'll rob you blind Suffer your life forever, eternal rest denied Dread Night The chilling down your spine Cold Sweat Gazing on your death Sweet Release You can't unburden me Spare Me I lack sympathy To pay for what you’ve done I stand as your reflection No rest for my conviction My will demands a victim Nowhere to hide, you’ll burn from inside Horrors to haunt your cursed life Taunted by those deathly eyes Stricken with every breath Madness, your last friend No respite No escape Your elegance Your arrogance Crossed the line Death by the divine Your cursed fate A king to fall from grace Drowning Fearing Your suffering Feel me Fear me A ghost all the same Your life is mine to control A guardian Malignant existence To see inside your black soul Your hate is clear Delusion of grandeur You are a king no longer Then I'm a Ghost Nowhere to hide, you’ll burn from inside Hours to haunt your cursed life Haunted by my final cry Stricken with every breath Madness, your last friend No respite No escape I am your king I am your god Much more an ember Of what's to come
8.
Sold upon a lie Turned to a slave Held in chains that bind Sold my soul For the hope Of glory Lies I'll see it all burn down To embers and ash Spark up the throne The city shall burn Broken from our bonds Bound to a false god A king of kings Empty Fealty You made a slave of me Set free from above A screeching voice The one that shook the sky Waking Set free I see your hearts burnt out You still owe your king your life Devout ‘til death? Then die Ascend from the depths below Your loyalty a deception We bring redemption Let the streets set alight With the fires Let them rise from our rage Build it up Burn it down To the ground We see your sacrifices You’ll see our pyres ignited We set a blaze to smoulder A ruin of bricks and mortar Burn out the pain and torture Reduced to Ash and Ember Ash and ember Feeding the flames a blazing kingdom That holds us By Ash and ember A remnant Oppressor Burn The kingdom of rapture Bring it to ash and ember To the throne We tear it down To be whole again But my name can't be found How can this be I’m free? The sea does not release

Reckoning 05:35
Thrust in a world of night The scream of fears, death and blight Speak softly or you will be found Do not linger in this place A trail of terror shall await The sands of time are ticking away Drowned in silence, hunted in the night You pray for guidance all you feel is fear This closing darkness shadows bearing in Failure is nothing when your end is near Paying for your past You will not last Lost in darkness, a fear fuelled harvest You’ll never be left the same Screams from the blackness, then deafened by silence Blood stained teeth bear your name To blind to see To deaf to plea We’ve come to see things through Drowned in silence, hunted in the night You pray for guidance all you feel is fear This closing darkness shadows bearing in Failure is nothing when your end is near Running from dark Traitor Slaver The shackles of a Fool Plead away Your sentence is to bleed The last of a broken reign Your loyalty a sickness That can't remain Betrayers to the sea Awakened we the free Your bones ground to dust The blood soaked blade of the unjust Treacherous Perfidy This is your reckoning
10.
My eyes are open But what is this is see My kingdoms in embers What a fool I’ve been I curse myself and my spite The sea roaming through the streets You dare betray me You break your bonds yet I bear the leash To fealty Beseech beneath me Accept what you have done You made your fate Your cursed soul I own That feeling Your Fearing Is Dread I claim what is mine Defiant of the divine Traitors of the crown I’ll claim them all to Serve and suffer Branded by dishonour Condemned to nothing Madness the governing Reclaimed by the sea Drown My will unbroken I found myself in me Bloodshed and vengeance Is all that there can be Eternal purgatory The sea roaming through the streets You dare betray me? You break your bonds yet I bear the leash To fealty Beseech beneath me Accept what you have done You made your fate Your cursed soul I own That feeling You’re fearing Is dread You are beneath me, Cower and fear me You can’t defeat me, I will beseech thee My hands rule the sea It flows through me I sentence you to die Face me
11.
No more I reign Defiant of death Came at a price Those hallowed eyes Now gaze into mine Suffered in the depths Lost in time Taunted by my own mind I killed those Who wronged me This is what I’ve become Crawling from the abyss I am reborn By ruin and woe my soul was torn The bloodshed of my rage A world left in flame Punished by my hand Embrace the slaughter Much more the monster The bane is here Suffering subsides I fear not death No more the fool in a throne That fool is dead Join with the void as the king of death Risen from ruin Immortal seer and the sea Mercy forsaking My will unbreaking Like falling from a dream Awakens the deep Your fate comes from me Heresy, treachery, tyrannical ecstasy How they will come to see My hungered darkness Unwavering sentencing Eternal reckoning Opposing me helplessly Drowned without empathy You should fear death When I wear it’s crown
