Bad Habits 03:44
lyrics
Out from the darkness and into the light An eager temptation no one can set right A crumbling furnace a place of despair No time to breathe, no time to care they're bad habits Look out, for bad habits Loose of the tongue another flick of the wrist Accountability may well not exist Nothing ventured and nothing gained You belong in the past and you've no one to blame for bad habits Look out, for bad habits The twisted mind, no honour, no sense of reality Breaking of trust, no boundaries Betrayer, no delusions, seeker of misery A victim created from their deeds Loose of the tongue another flick of the wrist Accountability may well not exist A petulant child that throws his toys on the floor Don't like what you hear, and you are nothing more, they're bad habits Look out, for bad habits

Pitch Black 03:10
lyrics
In the night I can't believe the things are haunting me The day it creeps within, it's leading me astray Can you hear me? Can you see me? I'm within you Burrowing deep inside you I've got your mind, in the night Pitch black the visions fill my mind Lay awake the screaming stays Cold sweat the darkness fills my eyes My brain cries out to be free Pitch black the visions fill my mind Lay awake the screaming stays Cold sweat the darkness fills my eyes My brain cries out to be set free
4.
Thunder and Lightning 05:27
lyrics
Water running down the street, the rain it starts to fall Lightning streaks across the sky, the thunder starts to roar The downfall soaking my skin, the lightning blinds my eyes Try to run for shelter before the creature it cries Flash of the light, the roar of thunder overhead Can't speak, can't hear, the fear The rain is falling down The dark of night, the sounds the wind is battering The storm goes on The thunder roars Thunder and lightning The sound is ever so frightening The rain still it pours The storm rages on
5.
Mummy's Tomb 03:04
lyrics
Under the gaze of Osiris I feel the tension it grows My crimes are now public knowledge I'm cast to the depths below From this prison cell Screaming, no one will From these iron gates Send me straight to hell From this prison cell Screaming, no one will From this Mummy's Tomb Send me straight to hell On through the night I am tortured A curse on me until the unknown And now I'm shrouded in darkness Trapped in this place I call home From this prison cell Screaming, no one will From these iron gates Send me straight to hell From this prison cell Screaming, no one will From this Mummy's Tomb Send me straight to hell
6.
Egyptian King 03:33
lyrics
I am the Egyptian King I rule the land of the Pharaohs Egypt is my only kingdom I shall rule all that stand before me I am the Egyptian King I rule the land of the Pharaohs Egypt is my one true kingdom I shall rule all that stand in my way I am the Egyptian King, I am feared My own blood is after me, I am king
7.
Into the Night 04:38
lyrics
The darkened clouds forming above The pouring rain lashing the ground Into the streets, tattered and torn The fires they are raging on Take me from this madness Don't take them into the night Disciples march on cobbled streets The tyranny of what we all see Instilling fear, seizing control To stray we will rue the day Take me from this madness Don't take them into the night Cannot conform to this regime His bony finger points at me My time has come, what hell awaits? Escorted through the rusty gates Take me from this madness Don't take me into the night
8.
Awaken 03:32
lyrics
Trapped in a darkened cell the fear is so unreal Pitch black, no light intrudes, screaming to no ears My mind breaking into many shards Ascend into madness, lost reality I walk a darkened path it chills me to my soul And then the realisation I have lost control All the time I've thrown away This is just the price we pay Fear was running through my mind Right up 'til the day I die Snap out from insanity, regain the now Piece back the shards of my mind, it's time to break out Oppressive mess, dictators of time Lightning lights my path, the thunder calls my name I walk a darkened path it chills me to my soul And then the realisation I have lost control All the time I've thrown away This is just the price we pay Fear was running through my mind Right up 'til the day I die I walk a darkened path it chills me to my soul And then the realisation I have lost control All the time I've thrown away This is just the price we pay Fear was running through my mind Right up 'til the day I die Time to break out, into the night, I can't take no more
9.
Truth Behind the Lies 04:17
lyrics
A mother's son, a father's child, alone A weakened mind, but a heart still strong, sorrow An endless phase of self disgrace, be gone Lost in this place, an endless maze, no more Can't find my way from here This place that's filled with fear Don't turn away, there's no more tears Can you see the pain in my eyes? A misery lies deep inside A pit of fear is all that remains Can you see the truth in the lies? A hidden meaning I can't describe The winding road to my demise
10.
The Derelict 11:20
lyrics
Sat in the bay, a new dawn's light The crew's aboard The sails raised, the wind it soars Start drifting from shore The waves are caressing the bow The harbour it fades Looking ahead on the sunrise Their voyage begins Off Santa Maria, there's no way home The wind in the sails, the fate of all these men are chosen And the finger points at you As the darkness heaves the waves And the nightmare's taunting you As the ember feeds the flames By the grace of god, a sight is seen Acquaintance of old Two souls they board, not a sound is heard Desertion of all Nothing disturbed, no provisions served Situation absurd Their story goes, nobody knows A legend it grows Off Santa Maria, there's no way home The wind in the sails, the fate of all these men are chosen And the finger points at you As the darkness heaves the waves And the nightmare's taunting you As the ember feeds the flames Water filling the hold Sails tattered and torn Yawl missing and more Provisions still in the stores And the finger points at you As the darkness heaves the waves And the nightmare's taunting you As the ember feeds the flames
