STORY OF THE LOST


ARTIFACTS OF THE BLACK RAIN (IN FLAMES COVER)

Stood there leaning to the city moon
Casting silhouettes tall to grip her white rooms
The black-clad voyeur in his black-clad masque
In the serpentine sun of tragedy basked

Stood there cursing at the soul-dead mass
With their fabled illusions, the vain dreams that passed
Splinters of a life rushing by in the whirl
Alone, silent warrior in a fantasy world

He cried for night, but night could not come
So, swept in the shroud of misanthropia, he went away
And fed the empty galleries with the artifacts of the black rain
Sunken into the shadows with a dry, sardonic smile
He made the footprints a part of his heart to rouse a sacred confrontation

Stood there carving on the monument to lies
Digging of the Earth, making friends with the soil
As the all-mother rises and bares her bleeding thighs
He disappears into her cold, icy womb


ONLY FOR THE WEAK (IN FLAMES COVER)

I can't tolerate your sadness
'Cause it's me you're drowning
I won't allow any hapiness
'Cause everytime you laugh
I feel so... guilty, I feel so guilty

Am I forced to have any regret?
I've become the lie, beutiful and free
In my righteous own mind
I adore and preach the insanity you gave to me

Sell me the infection, it's only for the weak
No need for sympathy, the misery that is me

I've lost the ability to paint the clouds
'Cause it's me you're draining
I'm stuck in this slow-motion dark day
'Cause everytime you run
I fall... behind, I fall behind

And so I hear my voice again
The tale of the bitter man, here I am
Shake the silence and hear what it says
The tranquil pride that become the lie

Sell me the infection, it's only for the weak
No need for sympathy, the misery that is me
Sell me the infection, it's only for the weak
On bleeding knees I accept my fate

Sell me the infection, it's only for the weak
No need for sympathy, the misery that is me
Sell me the infection, it's only for the weak
On bleeding knees I accept my fate...


BURNING ANGEL (ARCH ENEMY COVER)

Dark shadows from above
Ravens fly, obliterate the sun
"It's a sign of the devil.
He will come for his servant tonight"
These are dark times
Suspicious minds breed like rats
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies

Am I to burn
I have not sinned!
Burnt at the stake.
Innocent blood that can never be washed clean

The flames of ignorance
Grow higher and higher
Licking my flesh - burning my soul
The raven laughing in the moon

These are dark times
Suspicious minds breed like rats.
Guardians of corrupt morality
Spread their filthy lies again...


RAVENOUS (ARCH ENEMY COVER)

I am hunting for your soul
It dwells within your heart
I lacerate the pounding flesh
Your spirits shall be mine

So rise my spirit rise!
Revel in this dead mans' body
Grip his soul, sip the blood
Life is death
A holy carnage

Ravenous
I will be your god
Carnivorous Jesus
I need your flesh

Ritual slaughter
Fill up the chalice
With the essence of your life
Liquid strengths
Trapped in your veins
I crave your blood
You must die!
