Lyrics:

As the sun bleeds the sky red,
fear of unspoken word spreads
pure creatures lay exorcised
Slowly poisoned in the sin they demise
Am I alive or am i dead
is this salvation or land of dread
Blinded by the spirits I cant tell
I think we spawned a parallel hell!

Beware of the snakes meandering
As the red eyed horses come cantering
Starless night haunts us all
Soulless hand beckons our fall
Everyone is following the mysterious law
Like a system without a flaw!
ARCANE DECEPTION

Lifeless corpses dance, 
this anarchic revolution
dead and lifeless
in a strange fusion
The unholy chalice
against our mouth they thrust
As we gulp the mix
Pain, Greed, Blood and Lust!!!


Beware of the snakes meandering
As the red eyed horses come cantering
Starless night haunts us all
Soulless hand beckons our fall
Everyone is following the mysterious law
Like a system without a flaw!
ARCANE DECEPTION

As the ashes of life, fill my lungs,
I sing this song thats never been sung
From the highest peaks to the deepest rivers,
I see the boundaries as they wither!


Beware of the snakes meandering
As the red eyed horses come cantering
Starless night haunts us all
Soulless hand beckons our fall
Everyone is following the mysterious law
Like a system without a flaw!
ARCANE DECEPTION


Arcane Deception

treachrous is the path we tread
Thumping pulse in my head
what am I? a killing machine
on a battleground unseen

satisfying someone's hate
here I am packed with grenades
chaos strikes the troops in patrol
words echo FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!


fire in the hole!!


blood splashed across my face

through the smoke and through the haze

scattered limbs of brothers

dead and corpses shattered




am i the old mariner

or the God's own blessed chosen one

will i be the saviour 

or be wrapped with the albatross

I was never the saviour

insecure, a coward , a tyrant

fate  and irony anointed me 

to administer the coupe de grace




Mercy Mercy he screams

tears of pain make his eyes gleam

I cant do this its not my right

I cant rid him of his pain or fright

Back home a warmth awaits him

even when his chances are so slim

why me!! to You i Ask

Why me for this unholy task!!



explosions I'm dumbfounded

As i see the whole unit grounded

my helpless eye meets an old friend 


his  soul screams for his end


am i the old mariner

or the God's own blessed chosen one

will i be the saviour 

or be wrapped with the albatross

I was never the saviour

insecure, a coward , a tyrant

fate  and irony anointed me 

to administer the coupe de grace


Coup De Grace

We are the creatures of revenge
As this darkness through the night ascends
Like hyenas we feed on souls
Souls of men as dark as coal
Are you weak, or are you meek
Either way you're for us to eat
Come galloping, come galloping fast
We know this tread will be your last

Why is it that I'll need to stride, why is it that I'll have to eat my pride
Can I just stay can i be prudent, Can this life be ever stuck in a moment
Why is it that I'll need to stride, why is it that I'll have to eat my pride
I must move on I must stay strong, I have one hope that it'll stay along

What a grand affair, what a delight
a virgin soul unaware of its plight
we will tear it, we will smear it
we will suck it till we see hope quit
he was foolish, he was naive
what do we care, bring our knives
he relied on hope, wanted to be free
HAHAHA, So did we!

Why is it that I'll need to stride, why is it that I'll have to eat my pride
Can I just stay can i be prudent, Can this life be ever stuck in a moment
Why is it that I'll need to stride, why is it that I'll have to eat my pride
I must move on I must stay strong, I have one hope that it'll stay along

Gleaming redeyed sightless creatures
ghost of ghetto come to life
deathly shackles slowly give way
ghost of ghetto'll take your life


WHAT A WASTE what a waste of life
Sharply balanced on the edge of my knife
we will take them we'll take them for good
ghost of the ghetto will truimph , yes we would!!!!


Why is it that I'll need to stride, why is it that I'll have to eat my pride
Can I just stay can i be prudent, Can this life be ever stuck in a moment
Why is it that I'll need to stride, why is it that I'll have to eat my pride
I must move on I must stay strong, I have one hope that it'll stay along

Ghost In The Ghetto

Engulfed in the darkness
Blood is on my mind
Death casts its spell
Leaving life behind
And I m wasted everyday
Looking for respite
Needled to the core
Grasping madly for some breath!

Forget your pain, take the bull by its horns
Use the Pain, kick the deathly hounds aside!

If there is a heaven I am the last in line
If there is a master he'll lead me to the grind
Crucified and burnt in hell, i am all lost in time
Pain is way too much, death has come right here with its chimes!

Forget your pain, take the bull by its horns
Use the Pain, kick the deathly hounds aside!


Pain Arcane

Bugles blowing in the warfield,fearless flags flying high
untamed forces pick their daggers, bloodhshed death's cry
vanity takes control of our deeds, judgement gives into pride
omnipresent cries of redemtption, humanity lkicked aside"

Giving into temptation, losing sense of oursleves
falling prey to the heresy, hell is not too away
ruthless subtle invasion, craving deep in our souls
selfish organisation,imprudent measures take their toll"


Field full of bodies, ghastly pool of blood
the flags are still flying high
Blood and sweat is all thats left
vanity has left us to die

Why the bloodshed, whats the cause
are we just heading for the end
autocracy vested interests
gonna wipe the humans of the earths face

Giving into temptation, losing sense of oursleves
falling prey to the heresy hell is not too away
ruthless subtle invasion, craving deep in our souls
selfish organization, imprudent measures take their toll
