Violent Vertigo (05:55)

“VIOLENT VERTIGO”

Deep Into the Arc of Hydrus / Entering the Var Domain
In the Name of All Before Me / I Must Save All Who Remain
Permeating All Dark Matter / Breaking Barriers of Speed
A Sea of Stars is My Dominion / In the Midst My Enemy

Calling I’m Falling; I’m Cast Upon a Dream
Firing Expiring; I Hear the Silence Scream
Acting Reacting; My System Overload
Chasing Erasing; This Violent Vertigo

Rising From the Blinding Darkness / Thrust In Two Worlds Beyond
Hour of Attack Approaching / Imminent; Our Reason Strong
Shields Engaged; A Line of Terror / Spinning Into Realm Unknown
Laughing As I Alter My Course / Once Again to Meet My Foe

Look Into My Savage Eyes As I Play This Game of Fate
At One With My Machine Am I And Fueled By Fear and Hate
Weapons All Around Me Now But the One I Can’t Forgo
Is the Weapon In My Mind You See; The Weapon in…My Soul

As I Return to Hydrus 7 / Yet Another Mission’s End
A Fleeting Force; Collision Course; But Sovereignty I Must Defend
As I Await Impending Missions / Guardian to Progeny
Astral Plane is My Dominion / In the Midst My Enemy

Calling I’m Falling; I’m Cast Upon a Dream
Firing Expiring; I Hear the Silence Scream
Acting Extracting; My Target Detonate
My Breathing and Wreathing Machine Disintegrates…

I Bleed (06:05)

“I BLEED”

No Yesterdays; A Lifeless Haze
This Reverie Is All I See
I’m Lost in Time; You Freed My Mind
My Sullen Sting; Your Vanishing

Nowhere to Go; All You Bestow
On One Dark Day Was Swept Away
Your Peril Eyes; Now Distant Cries
A Somber Seed Is What I Bleed

I Bleed

You Introduced Undying Truth
Existence Null; Intangible
All That I Find You Left Behind
The Distance Stares But You’re Not There

Nowhere to Go; All You Bestow
On One Dark Day Was Swept Away
Your Peril Eyes; Now Distant Cries
A Somber Seed Is What I Bleed

I Bleed

I Crawl Inside; My Tortured Pride
In Silent Rage Must Turn the Page
Open the Door; Dimension Four
Reality; Just a Memory

Nowhere to Go; Ex Nihilo
On This Dark Day; Just Swept Away
Your Paralyze; Now Distant Cries
This Dismal Seed Is What I Bleed

I Bleed
I Bleed

Nobot 1 (05:06)

“NOBOT 1”

In the distant future, a series of man made “humanoid” robots were created for the purpose of executing high risk and covert missions for the US military. Several years into the project, it blew up in our face, as our metallic ‘friends”, succumbed to the one emotion we should have not programmed into them : the human EGO, and formed a “silent conspiracy” to overtake their creators. Using the scientific knowledge and “human intuition” we had programmed into them, they confiscated even our molecular and DNA structure and took it into the laboratory to perform mutations far beyond human knowledge in a successful quest to become more human themselves.

Hence, they became NOBOTS, the new master race...

Look in Your Mind and See What You Find Mechanical Grind
A Circuit Says Go
Further Within; Your Alien Skin; A Devious Grin
That Makes You Say No

It’s Your Mutated Scream In a Sub synthetic Dream
You Were Mirror-Faced / Technology Replaced

Never You Die A Humanoid’s Cry There’s No Reason Why
They Ever Should Know
In a Scarred Past You Were Made to Last The Future Was Cast
Your Power Would Grow

It’s Your Mutated Scream In a Post Hypnotic Dream
You Were Neuro-Laced / Technology Replaced

Into Your Frozen Heart Run Wires That Bleed
Programmed in Autostart / Intrinsic Seed

In Their Image You Were Cast / A Flesh So Real
Genetic Fusion Crashed / The Truth Revealed

Middle; Solo

Look in Your Mind and See What You Find Molecular Grind
A Circuit Says Go
Knowledge Extract Awakening Act Submission Intact
Device Overload

It’s Their Mutated Scream In a Realistic Theme
You Are Multi-Faced / Implanted Master Race

Every Breath Upon Us Opens the Door

Inside Your Conscience What Do You See?
Delusion of Illusion; A Blind Anomaly
Calming Contentment to Straitjacket Rage
A Day to Night; A Black to White; A Cretin to a Sage

Into the Eyes of Argus Forever More
Every Breath Upon Us Opens the Door
Dignified; Justified; Glorified Oh!

Alone (05:05)

“ALONE”

A Shifting Lie Surreal Appears from Nowhere
Its Presence That You Feel Alone

And Halls of Your Cage One; Alone

Will Think Their Way Inside You

The Creatures From Your Past Return to Haunt You

Their Peril Eyes Deride You
And the Poison Minds of Your Designs
Will Think Their Way Inside You

Revitalize (03:58)

You Crawl Into A Box Can’t Look It In the Eye
The Tigers of Your Trip Are Eating You Alive
So Break Out of Your Shell and Live It Like You Feel
And Start to Get In Touch With All That’s Real

Revitalize. Humanize.
Revitalize. Normalize.

The World You See Is One of Vice and Fantasy
Hallucinations of a Place You’d Rather Be
You Feed the Hand That Bites; A Hand That Clutches Skin
You’ve Got to Get Out of the Fix You’re In

And Every time You Walk a Line of Truth
A Mind to Let Your Spirit Free
You Can’t Escape the Reign of Harsh Reality

Revitalize. Neutralize.
Revitalize. Mechanize.

You Crawl Into Your Cave Can’t Look It In the Eye
The Tigers of Your Trip Are Eating You Alive
So Break Out of Your Shell and Live It Like You Feel
And Start to Get In Touch With All That’s Real

Revitalize. Improvise.
Revitalize.

Re-vital Eyes. Human Eyes.
Re-vital Eyes. Mechanize.

Revitalize.

Polydectes laughed out loud to himself, realizing Perseus’ futile attempt to behead Medusa. However, Perseus, with the aid of the winged shoes and crooked sword of Mercury, caught sight of the Gorgons’ reflection in Athena’s bright shield, thus allowing him to complete this macabre yet mandatory decapitation…

Kill Me If You Can (05:49)

Condemned on Death Row
Staring at the walls.
Counting down the hours
They throw the switch at dawn.
No stay of execution.
No governor's reprieve.
No appeals or dirty deals.
No chance they'll set me free.

Chorus:
I am a monster / I am your disease
My wicked game inflicting pain
Brings you to your knees
No one can stop me
You don't stand a chance
I CANNOT DIE. MY WILL DEFIES.
KILL ME. KILL ME IF YOU CAN.

"Hear my last confession."
The Priest stares at the floor.
"Father,yes, I have sinned.
Since the day that I was born.
Look deep into my eyes
Tell me what you see.
No remorse. A Demon Seed
The Perfect Kill Machine."

Chorus:
I am a monster / I am your disease
My wicked game inflicting pain
Brings you to your knees
No one can stop me
You don't stand a chance
I CANNOT DIE. MY WILL DEFIES.
KILL ME. KILL ME IF YOU CAN.

M-8
My evil is eternal.
And all I've got is....time.

In chains I walk the mile.
They strap me to the chair.
Before I don the hood of black
I give them all a scare.
"Think you've seen the last of me?
Be warned and beware."
"On the day your numbers up,
You'll find me waiting there."
Chorus:
I am a monster / I am your disease
My wicked game inflicting pain
Brings you to your knees
No one can stop me
You don't stand a chance
I CANNOT DIE. MY WILL DEFIES.
KILL ME. KILL ME IF YOU CAN.

Beyond The Grave (06:17)

BEYOND THE GRAVE

The Madness began in 1692.
Evil's loose, Prepare The Hangman's Noose.
Misguided Child you Played The Vexing Game
At Salem, You will Hang! You will Hang!

I Stand alone, the Seeds of Venom sown.
A Shadows' throw from Beyond the Grave.

On this day in Salem, Ye hath been Accused.
Charged with Witchcraft What Say you Miss Good?
Do you Conspire with Spirits? Do you Obey their Will?
Confess or Thou swings on Gallows' Hill.

Tell me who's behind this Masquerade
The Fear, the Pain....and the Lies.
I Pray you Return from Whence you Came
I Bid thee Goodbye.

I Stand alone, the Seeds of Venom sown.
A Shadows' throw from Beyond the Grave.
Before I die my life goes flashing by
A distant cry from Beyond the Grave.

Travesty of Justice. Hanging Judge's Rage.
On The Good Book swear away your Fate.
In the Darkest Hours Truth was told in Vain.
You Can Hear Their Cries still today.

Tell me who's behind this Masquerade
The Fear, the Pain and the Lies.
I Pray you Return from Whence you Came
An Eye begets an Eye.

I Stand alone, a lost, tormented Soul
A Voice unknown from Beyond the Grave.
‘Tis not the end. The dead shall rise again.
So cries the wind from Beyond the Grave.

Beyond the Grave Beyond the Grave
Beyond the Grave Beyond the Grave
Beyond the Grave Beyond the Grave

I stand alone.

On Morrow's Break (04:25)

Three Hundred years I've hunted here.
One Hundred Thousand kills
My Primal Rage - A Lust for Blood
Holds reign upon my will

On Morrow's Break The Stars will fade
As Darkness comes Undone
I'll greet the rays of the Morning Sun
Through The Gates of Hell I Come

Too long I've played this deadly game
I still can see their eyes
How many more must sacrifice
That I alone survive?

On Morrow's Break The Stars will fade
As Darkness comes Undone
I'll greet the rays of the Morning Sun
Through The Gates of Hell I Come

Cursed by the Light. Slave to the Night
Trapped for all Eternity
There's just one way - I Seize the Day
Free me from this Misery

No sympathy. No Funeral Pyre
When it is our Time to Die
Tormented Soul befriends the Fire.
No One cries for The Vampire

On Morrow's Break The Stars will Fade
As Darkness comes Undone
I'll greet the rays of the Morning Sun
Through The Gates of Hell I Come

On Morrow's Break The Stars will Fade
As Darkness comes Undone
I'll greet the rays of the Morning Sun.
One hundred thousand One.

Eyes Of The Machine (03:36)

Ever since the cold war It's reared it's ugly head
Behind a veil of secrecy , It's hunger must be fed
Gross abuse of power, Freedom in it's wake
Civil rights stripped away, hunted by the snake?
 
Integrated entity on a global scale
Codename : ECHELON; The coffin's final nail
Shadows all around you, nothing's as it seems
Slaves to a totalitarian machine.

Control the airwaves, make us believe
They guard the gates against our enemies
We cannot stop what can't be seen
THE EYES OF THE MACHINE
 
Transmission intercepted. Converge at Station 9
R-FID & satellites – No place left to hide
Spies, lies, alibis – Where did it all go wrong ?
Supercomputer chess and we are the pawns.
 
Control the masses / No one is free
Bow Down at your master's feet.
A New World Order / Optic feeds
THE EYES OF THE MACHINE
 
World Domination
Who's behind the scenes?
Subversion repressed, they
Build their Iron Dream.
Super-class Plutocracy,
Directive 51.
The Final Coup d'etat,
The Fourth Reich has begun
 
Control the masses / No one is free
Bow Down at your master's feet.
A New World Order / Optic feeds
THE EYES OF THE MACHINE

We are the masses / Can we be free?
Or will we drown in oppression's sea?
A New World Order – This cannot be
BLIND THE EYES OF THE MACHINE
BLIND THE EYES OF THE MACHINE
BLIND THE EYES….

Quantum Genocide (05:20)

VERSE ONE:
I come from the Future….2036
To halt a Quantum Genocide – the Fuse has just been Lit
Sent by The Collective to Eliminate the Risk
Hawking’s Theory’s Full of Holes; Higgs Bosons Exist.

VERSE TWO:
From the Dawn of Creation, Rippling through Time
The Energy it Generates make Galaxies Unwind
How could your CERN gamble with your Lives?
Implications on the Rise – Catalyst Denied!

Chorus:
I Have Arrived
On the Wings of Time
Another World Gone Blind
Quantum Genocide

VERSE THREE:
The future is my present your present is my past
This is not my first time here but I hope it is my last
Today’s the day I do the deed on me all hope depends
Sabotage the Rabbit Hole before Alice stumbles in.

Can You not See the Paradox?

Event Horizon Primed

Chorus:

On the Wings of Time
Another World Gone Blind

Shadows Of Oth (06:25)

Behind the Churchyard There Is a Secret Square
Unspeakable to Those Who Dare to Enter There
A Silent Portal For All Who Will Transcend
To Beckoned Eyes A Dark Surprise Awaits You Now My Friend

And Then We’ll Ride Together
We Will Abide Together
We Will Reside Together
In the Shadows of Oth / In the Shadows of Oth

A Fright of Passage This Is No Fantasy
Your Deepest Fears Will Now Become Reality
For All Who Know It; Their World Is Argus-Eyed
The Nth Degree Of Sanity So Follow Me Inside

And Then We’ll Ride Together
We Will Confide Together
We Will Reside Together
In the Shadows of Oth / In the Shadows of Oth

Look Up Ahead in the Dark; What Do You See? I Think It’s a Ghost of My Past
I’m Trapped In My Mind; Seeing My Kind; Never Behind the Form That Was Cast
Look Up Ahead In My Path; It’s My Own Wrath And It Is Laughing At Me
I’m Caught In A Bind; Paranoid Kind; Megalomind; What Will My End Be?

Mountains of Sorrow Heal My Weary Mind
Child of Tomorrow Feel What We Left Behind

Look Up Ahead in the Dark; What Do You See? I Think It’s The Wraith of My Dream
I’m Trapped In My Mind; Seeing My Kind; Never Behind This Obscurity

Mountains of Sorrow Heal My Weary Soul
Child of Tomorrow Feels That He’s Losing Control

Uncertain Webbings Will Tangle You And I
You Need Not Worry; I Know Several Who’ve Survived
A Realm of Trepidation; But This One We Must See
No Tragic Tale Will Thus Prevail; Just a Craniotomy

And Then We’ll Ride Together
We Will Abide Together
We Will Reside Together
In the Shadows of Oth / In the Shadows of Oth

Fated To Burn (05:09)

Free the bonds of conformity
From The Land of the Blind
Can you read between the lines of lies

Can you feel it slipping away?
Will we waken too late?
From the darkness destiny awaits

Chorus
I am the Moth drawn to the flame
Into a fiery grave
Jaded truths that I never learned
Lost & Fated to Burn.

As Atropos holds the fate of man
There's no escaping her hand
Never a master - a hopeless slave
I am....oh....

Chorus
I am the Moth drawn to the flame
Into a fiery grave
Jaded truths that I never learned
Lost & Fated to Burn.

We are black in the night
We are death in disguise
We are blood and the knife
We are Judas revived
Oh, tell me why
I'm Fated to Burn
Fated to Burn
Fated to Burn

I am the Moth drawn to the flame
Into a fiery grave
Jaded truths that I never learned
Lost & Fated to Burn

We are the Moths drawn to the flame
Not too late to be saved?
On a road of no return
We are all Fated to Burn....

Nobot 2 - (21st Century Frankensteins) (04:26)

A Festival of Fear

Holy (04:57)

Slithering through the sands of time
Behind, a golden tale
From the pages of a book, I shape the Hammers and the Nails
History has shown, my mark on every throne
Amidst the blood and bone

I’m your savior, I’m the one.
In the dark I hold the sun,
Before your birth you wear my stain
I am HOLY,
You know my name

I was born to elevate, man above the world
Keep him separate from the beasts, from the strange and the unheard
Fear and hate my soil. Ignorance my coil
I bring you shame and toil

I’m your savior, I’m the one.
In the dark I hold the sun,
Before your birth you wear my stain
I am HOLY,
You know my name

Confounded by their emptiness they fill their hearts with lies
Twisted by their righteousness, their wrongs become their rights
Forever living in the dark they pray the end is bright
For the promise of eternity they throw away their lives

Though you’ll never see my face, you’ll never be alone
I’m watching all you do, carving it into a stone
Forgiveness mine to sell, from the garden where they fell
Is it Heaven - Is it Hell ? Yeah !

I’m your savior, I’m the one.
In the dark I hold the sun,
Before your birth you wear my stain
I am HOLY,
You know my name.

The Nightmare King (08:59)

THE NIGHTMARE KING

I) Shadows Of The Abyss

Consider a Parallel Fate Unobscured
Where Fiction and Fact Come Unglued
A Place Where Atrocities Thrive Unrestrained
Where You Don't Want your Dreams to Come True

I Navigate the Nexus The Key to Far & Wide
Amid a Black & Starless Sky I Search for Evil's Guise.
I Become what Strikes your Fear. Your Deepest Darkest Foes
Phantoms of the Underworld - Their Powers I Invoke

II) The Summoning

I take what you can't find -Architect of Dreams
Thief by Night. Second Sight. Nothing's what it Seems
You will fall Victim to Slumbers' Soft Embrace
Terrified. Fear Defined. Nightmare Interface
Seventh Son. Hired gun. Telepathic Breed
We Converge then Traverse, Beyond Reality
In your mind. The Perfect Crime. Secrets are Revealed.
You've been Burned but can't Discern - What's Fiction or what's Real?

Go to sleep. If you dare.
Welcome to my Dream Lair.
I am all that you fear.
Every evil finds you here.
Trapped inside a private hell
My designs they serve me well
I'm the Master of your Dreams
I am The Nightmare King

Corporations, Countless Nations. Clients on the Rise.
Target synched. Neuro-linked. Eyes upon the prize.
Live or Die... I decide. Let the games begin.
No escape. Dreams I shape. Subterfuge within.

Go to sleep. If you dare.
Welcome to my Dream Lair.
I am all that you fear.
Every evil finds you here.
Trapped inside a private hell
My designs they serve me well
I'm the Master of your Dreams
I am The Nightmare King

III) The Construct

I am The Nightmare King. Master of Dreams.

Upon a Throne of Black I Reign
The Altered States - My Domain
Riding on an Astral Plane
A Dream within a Dream I make
Within you Lies the Truth I Seek
Pray The Lord your Soul to Keep
On this Night before you Wake
A Dream within a Dream I Take

I Take what you can't Find - Architect of Dreams
Thief by Night. Second Sight. Nothing's as it Seems
You know where to find me - Where Terror stalks it's Prey.
Where Gloom, Doom & Horror roam and Darkness Blacks the Day.

IV) Eternus Nocturne: The Dark Domain

Nightmare King. Nightmare King.

Go to sleep. If you dare.
Welcome to my Dream Lair.
I am all that you fear.
Every evil finds you here.
Trapped inside a private hell
My designs they serve me well
Will this terror ever end?
In this place there's just one friend...

I'm the Master of your Dreams
I am The Nightmare King
I'm the Master of your Dreams
I am The Nightmare King
Nightmare King. Nightmare King.
Nightmare King. Nightmare King.

Originally this is a song that could have featured lyrics but was never properly recorded. It was demoed, and a mixdown with guitars instead of vocals is provided here as a Japanese bonus.
The proper track if mixed, might or might not surface at a later date ...
