BLOOD OMENS
Watch the world tear itself apart
Chaos feeds what we feared from the start
Every day it seems we’re closer to the end
We need a way to turn it back again
Streaks of lightning - earth shakes below
Start the sanguinary show
Curse the sky - let the Norns decide
We read Blood Omens
Our Fate - Blood Omens
We heed Blood Omens
Devils crowd in the royal halls
Anticipating mankind’s fall
Summon the spirits to see what’s ahead
As the autumn sky turns blood red
Curse the sky - let the Norns decide
As Fate spares no man
Roll the bones - for sins unatoned
We read Blood Omens
Our Fate - Blood Omens
We heed Blood Omens
Prophets tell of another age
We’re living in its womb
The commotion of infinity
Will seal mankind’s tomb
Curse the sky - let the Norns decide
As Fate spares no man
Roll the bones - for sins unatoned
We read Blood Omens
For Fate spares no man
We read Blood Omens
Our Fate - Blood Omens
We heed Blood Omens

ONE MACHINE
(Music/lyrics: Svensson)
Faster and faster on the wings of damnation
Riding the rails to our newfound salvation
Face in the wind, the race is on
No turning back, a dream of steel, we ride as one
One Machine – rolling thunder
One Machine – chromed steel wonder
With full force we’re daring death and gravity
Heading down the track to immortality
Racing the wind, once here then gone
Cannot hold back, a dream surreal, we fly as one
Ripping the earth – to conquer the sky
Defying reality and dream
Cyborg symbiosis – the engine and I
We are one – One Machine
Riding like wildfire - scorching the land
A shock wave of power that none can withstand
Burst through the clouds – the race is won
No looking back, the dream is real, we ride as one
One Machine, we are One Machine, we are…

THE SPECTRE OF RUIN
(Music: Theander, lyrics: Svensson)
He lived his life unknowing
Of all the currents flowing
That guide the paths we all must tread
So he could not evade it
Because the ghost was waiting
To bring his house despair and dread
Rising up to haunt him again
Devouring the hearts of men
He never saw
The Spectre of Ruin
Misery’s mark
The Spectre of Ruin
But one day it transpired
His life engulfed in fire
He seemed to lose all that he had
No one could understand it
Just how the gods had planned it
Destroying him as he went mad

MY SILVER NEMESIS
(Music/lyrics: Svensson)
Lie beside me
Enter my dreams
Fabrication
Of morbid scenes
Reach down into me
Grab what you can
Pull out and show me
The darkness in your hand
To the peak of despair
You’ll take me
Then leaving me there
Forsaken
My Silver Nemesis
I can’t stop watching
The horror you bring
Twisted truths
And suffering
For deep down inside
I know what I see
Is the putrefied
Essence of me
Never to leave the shadows
You won’t let me forget
Things I haven’t dreamed of yet
So lie beside me
Enter my dreams
Realisation
Of the final scene

IN EVANESCENT BLACK
(Music/lyrics: Svensson)
I try so hard to just remember
How it used to be
Timeless, senseless
But standing here - now what is left of me?
In Evanescent Black
The structures fade away
Unseen, opaque
In solitude I wander through the mist
Searching endlessly
Thoughtless, tearless
Still it remains a long lost memory
In Evanescent Black
The structures fade away
Unseen, opaque
I’ve walked this path before
Stalking haunted halls
No light, no door

VERMILION CITY
(Music: Hultman, lyrics: Svensson)
Running down the alleyways
The walls are closing in
Can’t remember where I am
Where I’m going or where I’ve been
I see people stare at me
They talk as if they know me
I got to get away
From this conspiracy
When the colours start to change
I feel that like I am going insane
When my world starts closing in
The colours change again
All alone in Vermilion City
Nowhere to go in Vermilion City
All alone in Vermilion City
Nowhere to go in Vermilion City
I know the wickedness
That hides behind their smiles
I try to keep the charade
To save me for a while
Cold sweat runs down my back
Paranoia burns inside
I’ve been running so long that
I’ve run out of places to hide

LEAVE ME BELOW
(Music/lyrics: Svensson)
The temperature is rising
Time is running out
Don’t tell me what you’re thinking
I don’t care what it’s about
You seemed to know better
‘Cause you always followed their rules
But I’d rather sink and drown
Then sail on a ship of fools
I don’t want to know – what you have to show
When it’s time to go - Leave Me Below
I don’t want to know - when it’s time to go
Shut up! - just Leave Me Below
Is it worth denying
Your thoughts and all your dreams?
To accommodate their lying
Just a pawn in their schemes
You will never know – the things that I know
When it’s time to go - Leave Me Below
You say that it is so, but I don't think you know
Let go! - and Leave Me Below
I live my life the only way I know
Leave me here, leave me below

SKULL SMASHER
(Music/lyrics: Svensson)
Hollow eyes
Are staring back at me
Revive what used to be
Hazy nights
Of my malicious youth
This skull remains as proof
Skull, Skull Smasher
Skull, Skull Smasher
Break it to be Free
Skull, Skull Smasher
Withered lies
Cannot change what occurred
Yet now it seems absurd
Dying lights
I’m trapped inside this dream
The skull’s condemning gleam
Skull, Skull Smasher
Skull, Skull Smasher
Break it to be Free
Skull, Skull Smasher
The curse of this godless cranium has me in its grip. Can I escape and regain my sanity? Only time will tell…
Skull, Skull Smasher
Skull, Skull Smasher
Break it to be Free
Skull, Skull Smasher

UNDER THE SCYTHE
(Music/lyrics: Svensson)
Do you remember they told you
You're nothing more than a Slave
One thing is certain, this path
Is leading you straight to your grave
Do you live your life
Under the Scythe
Will you live your life
Under the Scythe
Never surrender, you got to
give it all that you got
Don’t trust tomorrow
You’ll never know what will be or not
En livstid
En evig strid
Blott vid dess ände finner du frid

THE NIGHT BREATHES DEATH
(Music: Hultman, lyrics: Svensson)
I awoke on the shores of this island
Unlike any ever seen before
No life can be found, I seem alone
I dread what the night may have in store
I cry out for help no one’s in sight
And then I find myself lost in the veil of the night
The night breathes death
Where shadows hide
The wind heralds
The other side
There is no place I can go to
I’m caught ‘tween the jungle and the sea
I feel something’s near and closing in
It fills me with dread beyond mortality
I’m crying for release from a lost fight
So here I find myself lost in the veil of the night
The night breathes death
Where shadows hide
The wind heralds
The other side
A shape appears
Of one who’s died
Death stills the night
The wraith’s nocturnal ride
Now deeply enveloped in mist
Dark smoke swirls before my eyes
So with a life draining kiss
My soul is sacrificed
The night breathes death
Where shadows hide
The wind heralds
The other side
A shape appears
Of one who’s died
Claiming a life
The wraith’s eternal nocturnal ride

When I played the first song to my brother he said it was "such an anime opening" and I love how accurate that is. I've listened to this album a lot on spotify for about 6 month, and I'm so glad I decided to spring for the CD. This album is SO GOOOOOD, you NEED to get it.
