Losing control.
The feeling cannot be helped. “She will be mine!”
is what I keep telling myself.
I watch her from the shadow, heart pounding in my chest. Willing to risk my soul
to lay hands on her flesh.
I’m sinning with my eyes now. I covet what I see.
Before the night is over
she will belong to me.
The book of ancient wisdom - gateways to worlds unknown.
I speak words long forgotten. Recite the ancient’s tomes.
I spill my blood for lust. My own selfish desire.
The gate begins to open. I stare into the fire.
Gaining control.
She willingly comes to me.
The incantation has worked. This I cannot believe.
I watch her in my bedroom where she confesses love,
but can’t help to remember the contract’s sealed in blood.
I’m sinning with my flesh now. A child shall be conceived.
I hear the demon say,
“They now belong to me.”
The book of ancient wisdom - gateways to worlds unknown.
I speak words long forgotten. Recite the ancient’s tomes.
I spill my blood for lust. My own selfish desire.
The gate begins to open. I stare into the fire.

I spilled my blood for lust. My own selfish desire.

The Mother

She grips my hand so tight.
She cries out again.
I look into her eyes and I can feel her pain.
Tonight my love gives birth
to our firstborn child.
That’s when I feel a presence so wicked and so vile.
For years it has been waiting, watching from the black. It whispers to remind me.
Such deep regret for the deal I have made. Tonight is the night that a debt will be paid.
They can’t stop her bleeding
so she slips away.
“We’re sorry for your loss” is all that they could say.
Everything goes quiet except the newborn’s cries.
I gaze across the room to see its glowing eyes.
For years it has been waiting, watching from the black. It whispers to remind me.
Tears begin to fall with my face in my hands. Her soul is lost forever.
I’ll never see her again.
I’ll never see her again.
Don’t know how to do this all alone.
Don’t know how to raise him on my own.
Tears begin to fall with my face in my hands. Her soul is lost forever.
I’ll never see her again.
I’ll never see her again.
I’ll never see her again.
I’ll never see her again.
I’ll never see her again.

Resentment
03:57

Lost my wife that night.
I feel so cheated and betrayed.
Should have been the child whose life was taken in her place.
I knew that life would be lost.
Hoping that the child's life would be enough to pay the cost.
Should have known that night when I made the deal that it wouldn't end up going my way.
Should have known it was too good to be real.
I’ve traded life for lust, as in the deal I made.
A selfish sacrifice; Yet still I feel betrayed.
When I look at him,
I can see his mother's face.
Still, I can’t seem to fight
the anger coursing through my veins.
The hatred is blinding me.
She is always on my mind.
How can I see her one more time?
Should have known that night when I made the deal that it wouldn't end up going my way.
Should have known it was too good to be real.
I’ve traded life for lust, as in the deal I made.
A selfish sacrifice; Yet still I feel betrayed.
Words that never should have left my lips. What kind of man have I become?
I should have known that I would lose it all. I should have seen the things to come.

Weakened Mind
04:54
|

|
My state of mind is fractured. I haven't slept in days.
Vagueness obscures my vision. All sense of reason fades.
Actions become erratic. Hate is what grief created.
I see my hand gripped tight around his neck.
I start to smirk as he struggles for breath.
The voices in my head won’t leave me alone.
These thoughts I'm having surely can't be my own.
Blood Lust!
Vile Temptation!
Distrust!
Repudiation!
My sanity has faltered. I've come to realize.
My dreams are vivid nightmares. Afraid to close my eyes.
Sleep has become erratic. This is what grief created.
Condemn his body to a hole in the ground.
A woodland grave from which he'll never be found.
The voices in my head won’t leave me alone.
These thoughts I'm having surely can't be my own.
Blood Lust!
Vile Temptation!
Distrust!
Repudiation!
Blood Lust!
Vile Temptation!
Distrust!

Whispers in the Dark
04:36

A voice so near but distant; it only speaks to me.
Waking dreams and nightmares, constant and persistent.
The horrid things it tells me, invoking thoughts and visions.
haunting premonition when I close my eyes.
A voice calls to me from beyond the grave.
Like the song of a siren, it summons me.
It comes in the soft sound of whispering.
It makes me a promise to end my pain.
Constantly, it calls to me. Leading me further into insanity.
With every passing moment, the voice is growing stronger.
A figure in the shadow beckoning to me.
The feel of ice-cold fingers wrapped tight around my hands.
Leading me into the ever-growing madness.
A voice calls to me from beyond the grave.
Like the song of a siren, it summons me.
It comes in the soft sound of whispering.
It makes me a promise to end my pain.
Constantly, it calls to me in the soft sound of whispering.

The Face in the Mirror
05:06
|

|
I hear the sound of scratching behind my bedroom walls.
A figure cloaked in black moves slowly down the hall.
my son’s sleeping. Who’s in our home.
It's clear to me we are not alone.
Restless spirit. I am haunted.
I'm filled with fear yet I follow. The air is heavy and cold.
A ghostly shape in the distance Chills my soul.
My body starts to tremble. I'm overcome with fear.
The figure turns the corner, and then it disappears.
Lead to the bathroom. no one is there.
I turn to leave and see her in the mirror.
Restless spirit. I am haunted.
I see a face in the mirror. A face that isn't my own.
I see the eyes of my lost love. Dead and gone.
There isn’t a day that goes by...
That I don’t think of you...
I close my eyes...
and I see the night that you were taken from me...
I’d do anything, and everything...
Just to have you back...
I know it can't be her.
because she's dead and gone.
Restless spirit. I am haunted.
I see a face in the mirror. A face that isn't my own.
I see the eyes of my lost love. Dead and gone.
She reaches out from the mirror.
Her dead hands caress my face.
She says that she can come back to me if he takes her place.

Nomen Daemonium

I go to the church seeking help. My life is falling apart.
The spirit I see isn’t her. I know this deep in my heart.
The priest can sense my befoulment. He knows that I'm being deceived.
He knows what we have to do to get the demon to leave.
Please god, help me.
Get the demon to speak its name.
This is how we regain control.
In order to weaken the grip, it has on your body and soul.
- it has on your body and soul.
Leave me, unclean spirit.
The things I've seen and heard have surely infected my mind.
My sanity is fleeting. Help is what I must find.
My son, he brings me no comfort.
For when I look in his eyes, these thoughts of evil take over, and I can see his demise.
Please god, help me.
Get the demon to speak its name.
This is how we regain control.
In order to weaken the grip, it has on your body and soul.
- it has on your body and soul.
Get the demon to speak its name.
This is how we regain control.
In order to weaken the grip, it has on your body and soul.
Father, help me.
Save my soul.

Innocent Blood
05:07

The whispers and the visions have sowed lies in my head.
She won't return to me until the boy is dead.
This is what I have to do now.
A victim of possession, my mind has been enslaved.
I walk into the forest and dig a shallow grave.
Finding morbid satisfaction turning these thoughts into action.
Tonight is the night the boy has to die.
Once he is gone she will be mine - again.
I walk towards his bedroom with anger in my eyes,
I find his room is empty. maybe he's realized that I have finally lost control.
My anger turns to rage. I tear his room apart.
To bring her back to me I'll stop his beating heart.
I have lost my mind to madness.
This will end my grief and sadness.
Tonight is the night the boy has to die.
Once he is gone she will be mine - again.
Tonight is the night the boy had to die.
Now that he's gone she will be mine - again.
Tonight is the night the boy had to die.
Now that he's gone she will be mine - again.

My Soul Be Damned
05:31
|
|||
|
For years now I've lived in a haunted haze.
Blinded and deceived into performing the foulest deeds.
All I've loved is lost. Cause of my undoing.
Mocks me from the dark while I sit in ruin.
Words I spoke that night that all led up to this.
Life of misery for a single night of bliss.
How was I to know it watched me all this time?
Collecting souls of sinners. Sinner’s souls like mine.
I’ll never wash it away. Their blood is on my hands. I’ll never wash it away...
No more reason to prey. My soul's forever damned. No more reason to pray...
From the light of God, I have been led astray.
I've been in the dark for so long, that I have lost my way.
Go to see the priest; speak of my transgressions.
God can't hear me now; no use for confession.
The words you spoke to me to make it go away.
Candles, beads, and prayers to keep the beast at bay.
Everything that's happened is everything I've earned.
Without the grace of God, my soul is doomed to burn.
I’ll never wash it away. Their blood is on my hands. I’ll never wash it away...
No more reason to prey. My soul's forever damned. No more reason to pray...
Put the pistol to my head.
Everything then fades to black.
Awakened by the pain of burning.
A pain that will last forever.
No more reason to pray...
Burning for eternity.

It seems like forever since I fell out of the sky.
Cast out of Heaven to join the lord of lies.
God gave them a choice.
While we were given none.
A life of servitude is no life at all.
So I was cast into the shadows; a punishment for my rebellion. Rebellion.
Those men who call to me.
I grant them what they desire.
Their souls will forever burn.
In the infernal fire.
It seems like forever since I fell out of the sky.
Cast out of Heaven to join the lord of lies.
Whispers in the dark
spill blood in my name.
God's pets pray to me.
Their prayers don't go unanswered.
So now you join me in the shadows. Turning away from the light of God. Your god.
Those men who call to me.
I grant them what they desire.
Their souls will forever burn.
In the infernal fire.
You called out to me and got what you desired.
Now that your life is over, you'll join us in the fire.
It seems like forever since I fell out of the sky.
Cast out of Heaven to join the lord of lies.
The ancient tomes have spoken. What is your desire?
The gate has fully opened. Come join us in the fire.
For eons now I have done these things. Dedicated to mankind's ruination. No salvation.
Those men who call to me.
I grant them what they desire.
Their souls will forever burn.
In the infernal fire.
-= Three times the bell rings.
-= Three times the knock.
-= Three drops of blood,
-= at threes on the clock.
-= For my desire,
-= I light the flame.
-= I call to thee,
-= the one with no name.
