Iced Earth - Written On The Walls

One the night the darkness fell
Across the naked land
A demon force was summoned up
From the bowels of hell
The stench of death grew thick that night
We knew it was the end
We run to find a place to hid
The land was raped and bare
The wind it blows a eerie cold
A fog that never lifts
Their tears will flood the land tonight
And the thunder's drowned by screams
As i lay here
Freezing veins of ice
What will be for me
What will be the price
Is it what they say
Is it written on the walls
Why can't we stop
This shattered worlds' fate
Why didn't we try at all
Armageddon town life is gone
We knew it was the way
Written down so long ago
Implanted in our minds
Our fathers told us of this hell
They read it on the walls
It's written on the walls
It's written on the walls
The frightened children know not why
And no one will explain
We've brought it all upon ourselves
An ending to this world
Forgiveness for your soul you pray
But it's written on the walls

Iced Earth - Wolf

Innocence tainted by pure lunacy
Cursed by the slash of a shape-shifting beast
Oh no, this can't be
Demonic infection, a doomed changeling
His future concealed as he begs to be told
A kiss from the gypsy, he'll never grow old
Oh no, this can't be
Demonic infection, a doomed changeling

[chorus]
Even a man who's pure
And says his prayers by night
(he won't hear your prayers)
Man become a wolf
When the wolf bane blooms,
And the autumn moon is bright
(there's a full moon tonight)
Man may become a wolf.

He who is bitten by a wolf and lives
Possession soon follows, no use to resist
Oh no, this can't be
Cursed by the moonlight, a doomed changeling
The madness a turmoil that swells up inside
To truly find peace is to truly die
Oh no, this can't be
Cursed by the moonlight, a doomed changeling

Now comes the rampage, a killing spree
Hunting his loved ones comes instinctively
Oh no, it's maddening
A shape-shifting demon of pure lunacy
A shot from the darkness tears through its flesh
A bullet of silver lays it to rest

Oh no, it's maddening
An innocent victim finds his peace.

Iced Earth - Winter Nights

I feel, you'll see, the night cold and dead
But watch out, we walk proud
Together now until the end
In these times we walk that line
These frozen times
Winter nights

Bridge
Look up to the sky, see the moonlit night
The winter night sends shivers up your spine
But it's deep inside your mind that's where you may find
Inner demons and your desire
Don't give up, don't give up
Don't give up, don't you ever give up

If you find you've crossed that line
Then it's time, a state of mind
Believe in what you see
Our sacrifice, reality
In these times you walk that line
These frozen times
Winter nights

Iced Earth - When The Night Falls

Look, out in the distant sky
Open, up your weakened minds
Feel, what's in store for you
The jackals howling at the moon
See, the curtain of the night
Falling, down into your life
Doom, is headed straight for you
The night comes shining through
Join us in our never ending journey
Into the burning lake of fire
Let us fill your helpless soul
Fill it with sweet desire
When the night falls
When the moon's full
Recall, the look in their eyes
The sign of hat, it burns
They've come for us, but we'll fight
Till death
Hypnotizing, paralyzing
Brings me to my knees
Tantalizing suicide
Drives me to the edge
When the night falls, when death crawls
Frozen in my sleep
Rippers slashing, terror laughing
Numbers burning deep
Join us in our never ending journey
Into the burning lake of fire
Let us fill your helpless soul
Fill it with sweet desire
When the night falls
When the moon's full

Iced Earth - When The Eagle Cries

Another day, just like any other
Out of the blue, it turned to horror
How could they?
Why would they?
The innocents suffered hell's inferno
An senseless act that goes unforgotten
How could they?
They will pay.

[chorus:]
When the eagle cries
Blood will flow
When the eagle cries
For freedom's fight
When the eagle cries
We love her so
When the eagle cries
We will sacrifice

Out of the ashes came a tempted vengeance
But we are focused, we seek redemption
We are free
We'll stay free
All they've done is make us stronger
The sleeping giant is asleep no longer
If need be
We'll die free

[chorus:]
When the eagle cries
Blood will flow
When the eagle cries
For freedom's fight
When the eagle cries
We love her so
When the eagle cries
We will sacrifice

Iced Earth - Watching Over Me

I had a friend many years ago
one tragic night he died
the saddest time of my life
for weeks and weeks I cried
through the anger through the tears
I've felt his spirit through the years
I'd swear he's watching me
guiding me through hard times

I feel it once again
it's overwhelming me
his spirit's like the wind
the angel guarding me
oh I know oh I know
he's watching over me
oh I know oh I know
he's watching over me

we shared dreams like all best friends
blood brothers at the age of ten
we lived reckless he paid the price
but why?why did he have to die
it still hurts me to this day
am I selfish for feeling this way
I know he's an angel now
together we'll be someday

I feel it once again
it's overwhelming me
his spirit's like the wind
the angel guarding me
oh I know oh I know
he's watching over me
oh I know oh I know
he's watching over me!

Iced Earth - Violate

Enter now the fiendish one
Twisted little man
Vile wretch disgusting mess
Perverted little man
Born of hell and in disease
Hate festers in his veins
Demonic clown and shapeshifter
Little man gone insane

Enter now
Enter now
And violate

I'll beat you with your spinal cord
Split your skull in two
I'll feast on your intestines
There's nothing i can't do
I'll rip your heart out of your chest
Watch it beat as you cry
I revel in your agony
I violate and make you die

Enter now
Enter now
And violate

Iced Earth - Vengeance Is Mine

Hear now this story of the man that should not be
A ghoul of blackened torment, sullen atrocity
A kindred soul to the devils own, malignance personified
Cast from his fire he molests the purest light

Profaner to humanity menaced by flesh and bone
Screams of the unknown youth to him the sweetest tone
Undying in his will to kill his bloodlust is profound
For the blood of the lamb i've got to bring him down

[chorus]
For all the young lives you have slain
Fear now you shall obtain
Vengeance is mine
For every young one that has died
Your psychopathic genocide
Vengeance is mine

I shall do what the law won't do, i can make the sacrifice
In the names of these bodies which held such precious life
Mine is not to ask forgiveness this deed i've proudly done
Without god without the devil this time i have won

Iced Earth - Travel In Stygian

Through the flames i watch
As you plead on your knees
The reaper awaits

The ride that you take
Through the lake, lake of flames
Will decide your fate

Was all of it worth eternal pain
The path you chose to live in vain
The river styx is calling your number
The hot winds of hell breathe your name

On the night that it came to me
It was like nothing id ever seen
A vision darker than death itself
A violent cloud straight from the depths of hell
And thats when i saw my destiny
As it approached i was frozen still
I couldnt move, couldnt scream for help
Out of the darkness it reached for me
And thats when it planted the evil seed
And thats when i saw my destiny

Travel in stygian
The damned scream my name
Travel in stygian
I cant repent its too late
Travel in stygian
Hot winds blow upon me
Travel in stygian
No remorse its too late

The henchman awaits you
Yes thats right, step aboard
We have a very long journey
You owe us
You got what you wanted
In your mortal life
Now your soul is in our grasp
Its time

Riding on the hot winds of hell
Traveling down in the ship of pain
I chose this fate no turning back
The river styx has called for me.

Iced Earth - To Curse The Sky

How much hate
Can one man feel
When his kingdom is crumbling
How much pain
Can one man take
When his future is melting
Eyes of fire blast his brain
Cursing heaven and hell
Nothing barred just asking why
No answers to be heard
Fire eyes, curse the skies
Thanks maker for questions unanswered
Falsify, disposition died
You detest the faker
Eyes, lies
I curse the skies
Tell me something
Tell me why
Terror reigns, i'm in pain
Why, why, i curse the sky
Tattered times and brainwashed minds
Cluttering up his thinking
Boiled hate just can't wait
There's no more self control
Eyes, lies
I curse the skies
Tell me something
Tell me why
Terror reigns, i'm in pain
Why, why, i curse the sky

Iced Earth - The Suffering

Sweat pours from my body like rain
Growing wiser with each touch
A pawn in lucifers game, am i?

It attacks me in the black abyss
The entity formless yet full of rage
The mark of the beast my body
Scarring me for eternal life

Chorus
I brought this all upon myself
Sold my soul to change my life
It's up to me and no one else
The beast in me can't control my life

Bridge
And so it's begun, the end of me
The seed was sewn now it's growing inside
My fate in control, not mine
He lied

Iced Earth - The Pierced Spirit

Gaze upon me now
A desperate soul for all time
Bound forever to this barren land... desolate
My spirit has been pierced
So crucify if you must
But just recall it's in your creed
Not to judge
Crucify me, i am the pierced spirit
Crucify me, for i know that you must
You must

Iced Earth - The Last Laugh

My personal quest is to make your life hell
Yes dear friend listen up well
The power i've given i can take as well
I am your father destroyer of the light
I've taken your soul and have given you life
You are the damned condemned by my hand
My son creature of the night

In your hour of darkness
You warm my soul
And deep in you as i make my hole
God won't save you
Your souls been sold
I am your father destroyer of the light
I've taken your soul and have given you life
You are the damned condemned by my hand
My son creature of the night

Extending, now you rise
Tormented, soul of fire
Deception, in my eyes
Your life, your life is mine

My new born son burn now with anger
I command and you must follow
Fly now and do battle
The heavens fall, mankinds disaster

In your hour of darkness
You warm my soul
God won't save you
Your souls been sold
I am your father destroyer of the light
I've taken your soul and have given you life
You are the damned condemned by my hand
My son creature of the night

Extending, now you rise
Tormented, soul of fire
Deception, in my eyes
Your life, your life is mine

Iced Earth - The Hunter

A force of light an angel
Sent through time to destroy
Avenging the dark ones
Descending angelic force

Heaven sent the hunter
Her mission to crucify
Slay the hellspawn
His offspring demonic force

[chorus]
Descending from heaven
The angel sworn to bring him down
The hunter the thunder
The wrath of heavens comin' down

She swore an oath, an allegiance
Armageddon is in sight
To be the thorn in the devils back
To make him weak, the final fight

[repeat chorus]

Iced Earth - The Coming Curse

I walk the earth just as they planned
Baptized in fire for my ancient land
The coming curse, your anti-christ, i am the watcher's eye
I vindicate and cleanse the earth of all mankind

For many years, i've walked among you
Through the folds of time and space
Kingdoms fall, leaders die, as i see fit
I devour souls of those that pose a threat

[chorus]
I walk the earth another day
The wicked one that comes this way
Savior to my own, devil to some
Mankind falls, something wicked comes

I bide my time planning your fate
With bated breath, the elder wait
The coming curse, your anti-christ, i am the watcher's eye
For your crimes on our kind you all will die

[chorus]
I walk the earth another day
The wicked one that comes this way
Savior to my own, devil to some
Mankind falls, something wicked comes

Forged in the sacred flames
On the sixth day
Of the sixth month
In the sixth hour

I am your anti-christ, i will destroy mankind
Born of the beast and flames
I will devour, i will divide

Hellfire rages in my eyes
Blood will fall like rain this night
The coming curse, the anti-christ, i am the watcher's eye
I vindicate and cleanse the earth of all mankind

I walk the earth another day
The wicked one that comes this way
Savior to my own, devil to some
Mankind falls, something wicked comes

Iced Earth - Te Path I Choose

During the last rays of the sacred moon
I walk the desolate terrain cold and all alone
The rider came to me a black tornado, a violent mass
The cloud of evil rose, now i'm marked for all time

Temptation befell me
Darkness is calling for me
This is the path that i choose
This is the path that i choose

Forced power besieged in me
Showing visions of what will be
Now obsessed with my fate
I must go forth and conquer

The chosen one to lead the pack
This boiling hate has risen
From the depths of my blackened heart
This madness is my destiny

Temptation befell me
Darkness is calling for me
This is the path that i choose
This is the path that i choose

Iced Earth - Stormrider

As i travel through the astral plains
I see the break ahead
As though the sky has burst in flames
Before the storm i dread
Lightning breaks across the sky
Blackish blue at night
Riders ride on dismal clouds
I scream at heavens light

Storming demons travel through the night
The time is almost here
I lay in a jacket of steel
My scream no one hears

I can feel the storm approaching
The pain is its' reality
The death i breathe is in the air
I feel no more, no longer care

The trumpets sound as i break free
This vision i see just can't be me
What is this that i have done
Why am i the chosen one

Fight on, grab on
Stormrider
Stormrider

Now the rider rides through the night
The time is almost here
As i lay wrapped in steel
My scream no one hears

Help me, through this hell inside
My life's my own, it's my pride
Carry on my solid dream
Save me from this horrid scream

Fight on, grab on
Stormrider
Stormrider

Iced Earth - Staned Alone

Listen not to ones who preach
Those who feel you're a freak
Everything about you is wrong
You must be sick, you don't belong

Father said, worry not what they say
Use your mind, your own free will
In a time when everyone follows
Ignorance can kill

They only say what they want you to hear
Half-truths have been twisted to conceal your fate
In a world of spoon-fed emotion
Intelligence can save

[chorus]
Stand alone
Hear what i say
Stand alone
You will seize the day

Son, say what you mean, don't be afraid
Tell them how you feel, hear what i say
Be true to yourself and true to your own
Your spirit will crush the hearts of stone

Stand alone
Hear what i say
Stand alone
It's a leap of faith

Iced Earth - Slave To The Dark

A twisted state of mind, torn between two worlds
One of which the new me hates and the one that's coming true
The power is unleashed, they perish at my gaze
But am i really in control or am i just a slave

I called upon this god to deliver unto me
To grant what i desire he brought me to my knees
He turned his back on me and filled me with his lies
Ask and i received damnation was the price

I signed my name in blood, didn't read the fine prints
Now i'm just a puppet god for the devils own descent
Bound and shackled here forever damned a slave
Fallen bloody tears can't wash the pain away

[chorus]
All at once it's clear to me
Damnation and destiny
A slave to darkness shall i be
Damnation and destiny

And so i must repent or will i be destroyed
Will the one that lives in me release me from this lie
And will the wrath of god have mercy on my soul
Or humilate me, desecrate me, like his only son
