Headless Cross. Look through the people, and on through the mist To the hill of the headless cross Where all witches meet, on a night such as this, And the power of darkness is host They come face to face, eye to eye, soul to soul, With an Angel that fell from the sky Borne on the air, are the screams and the wails Of the masses appointed to die Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture, At the headless cross, at the headless cross From the first evil night, when a black flash of light Cut the crucifix half to the ground There's been no escape from the power of Satan, On a nation so brave and so proud Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture, At the headless cross, at the headless cross How do you feel, when the locks refuse the key And the master is calling your name, Does the luck of the charm, really keep you from harm Does the talisman protect you from pain Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture, At the headless cross, at the headless cross From the first evil night, when a black flash of light Cut the crucifix half to the ground There's no escaping from the power of Satan For a people so brave and so proud Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture, At the headless cross, at the headless cross At the headless cross, at the headless cross Where will you run to, at the headless cross Look, to the headless cross 3. Devil And Daughter. Silence is mocking, the dawn of a new day Devil and Daughter, are both on their way The Evil of her nature, collects in her eyes With him there's no fear, of the dawn bringing light Baptised with fire, to wild to be tamed She's hot, evil and ready, to take any man Let no one put asunder, the power or the pain He is the master of hell, riding again Devil and Daughter - pleasure and pain Devil and Daughter - is this the end A thousand times over, you'll hear on the wind In the name of hell, these sinners never sinned But Satan never listens, to the words that they send Drenching the soil with blood, when will it end Devil and Daughter He's got the power she's got the pain Devil and Daughter She'll break any woman and take any man Devil and Daughter Hand in hand with the reper 4. When Death Calls. He saw the world, dim with the glow of the vertical sun His skin crept cold knowing that this was the hours of dying Misguided mortals you'll burn with me, Spirit of man, cannot be freed When death calls - this is the hours of dying When death calls - the spirit of man can be freed When death calls - there's no tomorrow When death calls - just an evil shadow Tell me not fear of the flames means that heaven is closer For I believe, Satan lives, in the souls of dying Misguided mortals you'll burn with me, Spirit of man, cannot be freed When death calls - heaven is closer When death calls - feel the heat of the flames from the souls of the dying When death calls - here it comes, here it comes, here it comes When death calls - you're gonna burn Don't look in those sunken eyes Don't look and you'll stay alive Don't laugh in the face of death or your tongue will blister Can't die until Satan says, you die And Satan takes your soul In the face of death or your tongue will blister Don't look in those sunken eyes Don't look and you'll stay alive Don't laugh in the face of death or your tongue will blister Can't die until Satan says, you die The Devil takes your soul With all his wrath he calls the reper When death calls - this is the hours of dying When death calls - the spirit of man can be freed When death calls - there's no tomorrow When death calls - just an evil shadow When death calls - feel the heat of the flames from the souls of the dying When death calls - your gonna burn, burn, burn When death calls - heaven is closer When death calls - I can feel it, gonna take you down 5. Kill In The Spirit World. There's something wrong there's a chill in the air And the blood in my vein's running colder The eastern sky is beginning to silver And the words that you speak start to falter The seal is broken, the oath has been crossed In the house of the dead there's a taker Some say that this is the ultimate sin When the spirit world turns to the alter There's been a kill in the spirit world There's been a kill in the spirit world Behold, the dead clutching at fading hands, out of reach forever "In glory die" calls the voice of the void Your assassin has cursed every spectre The seal is broken, the oath has been crossed And the house of the dead seeks a master Stretching every muscle, wait for the end And a kiss on the wind, whispers murder, murder There's been a kill in the spirit world There's been a kill in the spirit world There's been a kill in the spirit world When heaven is closer, it's pleasure and pain Kill in the spirit world Did you see another in black Is the blood in your veins running colder If you did then there's no turning back As the spirit world turns to the alter The seal is broken, the oath has been crossed And the house of the dead seeks a master Stretching every muscle, wait for the end And a kiss on the wind, whispers murder There's been a kill in the spirit world There's been a kill in the spirit world Oh here it comes, oh no The seal is broken, the eastern sky is beginning to silver There's something wrong, there's a chill in the air I feel the Evil, I feel the Evil Somebody whispers murder A kiss on the wind whispers murder 6. Call Of The Wild. In this last and final hour, you can't hide There's nowhere now that you can run All eyes are on you, like a lost eternal light Princes and kings, and demons with wings Summon your fears from hell It's the call of the wild Calling you In this last macabre hour, witches cry And turn to dust before the moon Many spirits are lost forever, but one survives To call the tune of Lucifer It's the call of the wild Calling you Hero, only in the grave are there no dreams Hero, don't believe in fate it ain't what it seems All you gotta do now is stay free You're the one they turn to when hell screams Fear of the devil, has no place among the brave Faced with pain, there's a battle to be won All eyes are on you, like a host eternal light Princes and kings, and demons with wings Summon your fears from hell It's the call of the wild Calling you Hero, only in the grave are there no dreams Hero, don't believe in fate it ain't what it seems Hero, only in the grave are there no dreams Hero, don't believe in fate it ain't what it seems Hero, you got the fear of the devil, burning your soul Hero, it's the call of the wild Hero, tearing your soul 7. Black Moon. Oh the devil is rising with the moon he cries and my blood runs cold Oh no never was the darkness so black, no light and nowhere to go My spirit is crying for a love so tired of being alone I remember he came here to steal, and you are his stealer of souls I see a black moon rising, and it's calling out my name Oh it's calling my name I've been blinded, lost and confused, darkness will call me no more Heaven is no friend of mine, no god ever knocked on my door I see a black moon rising, and it's calling out my name It's calling out my name, it's calling I see a black moon rising, and it's calling out my name Oh it's calling my name I'm standing on the dark side of time reaching for the power of her hand She's weaving an unholy light and calls from Lucifer's land I see a black moon rising, and it's calling out my name An angel of hell is rising, heaven's no friend of mine I see a black moon rising, and it's calling out my name I see a black moon rising, and it causes so much pain An angel of hell is rising, heaven's no friend of mine I see a black moon rising, and it's calling out my name It's calling my name, this spirits crying for love, Heaven's no friend of mine 8. Nigtwing. Nightwing has stirred, and taken to flight The silence is over, he's shattered the night No other hunter has the power or the grace He is the master of this place Tell every creature of the night The kill is around the bend So listen my friend Nightwing flies again They say he comes, for those whose souls are weak, And calls his name upon the wind The night is cold and thick with mystery Oh I can feel his beating wings Tell every creature of the night The kill is around the bend Nightwing flies again Tell every creature of the night The kill is around the bend Nightwing flies again Nightwing has stirred, and taken to flight The silence is over, he's shattered the night Life ain't for giving and forgivin' ain't free No soul will rest while the hunted run free So tell every creature of the night The kill is around the bend Listen my friend Nightwing flies again Made in USA by PDO IRSD 82002 02!
