Under the Vampyrian Mark

Here is the sign for the ones who walk the night
Go and be anointed to be granted a new life
May my mark of the nightwalkers bless your new found power
In riches and immortality you will be showered
This mark is our identity binding us all as one
Together we are an unstoppable force where victory is won
Welcome tainted ones to the life you ran from
I am your new leader who will guide you to victory
My mark symbolizes all who follow my lead
Distinct from battle scars a message to mankind's heart
The sign carries my true power
On the enemy, you will shower
Freedom from mortal flesh was your only fate
Quench your thirst for pure blood for your survival, man is to be slain
In the shadows we will not die
Now sing the chant of my words with your brother in the vampiric horde

Vampiric Disciples
03:43
|

|
I poured all my hate and anguish into this symphony
To expose more putrid and hellish atrocities
The things I do to write this music
It makes me ill, it makes me feel sick
I still self hurt to write for all who enjoy
Spreading my poison through psychological ploy
Only the strong can withstand these trails while the meek die off in legions with outcome to fail
Flying through the fiery flames unable to embody this bleak essence
To sing this song and feel my omnipresence
The loyalty of my disciples is all that keeps me going
A sign of allegiance, a way of showing
Nothing can destroy this barrier we have built to march onward in war
Devouring our prey and taking back their whores
Sink your teeth into my veins and get a taste of never ending pain
Once you're infected you'll never be the same

Unholy Waters
03:28
|
|||
|
A mighty roar, from the ocean floor
Perhaps from the depths of hell itself
Horrifying beings, monstrosities, unimaginable creatures from beyond
Cry out with sin to immortal skin, begging for agony to end
Dreaming of new life, no more demise
They cry for the vampyrians
Beneath unholy waters, damned millions live to slaughter
Any vague sacrifice to the others with the ancient fathers
Tainted with the life of the blessing
Embraced with the nightwalkers passing
Unsafe for anything that is still alive and walks the earth
In the cursed deeds, rising vigorously
Trapped in the grasp of the suffering
Fire and water coexisting, an extermination of all
No place to sail or walk unless wishing for a suicidal fall
Poison to immortals, swallow the sun to man
A black hole on earth swallowing itself again

Midnight Fog
04:20
|
|||
|
In the dark of the night where nocturnes freaks dwell
When the clock strikes twelve, welcome to hell
The blood moon, puts the world in its eternal darkness
Haunting, the silent woods now filled with wicked music
Sin is moving, monsters leaving marks of evil
The dark lord is having a grand time
The holy sheep are being torn to shreds
Nightwalkers coming, the woken hours meet again
Humans running, their vicious fate becomes their hasty friend
Parade of chaos circles the earth
Join all the fun for the counts return
The vampiric horde needs more flesh
Take this new life and put your old one to rest
Purifying darkness for the seeds of the wretched
Here all evil meets to join the unholy
Becoming one, growing the flock
Nothing is wrong in the midnight fog

Grotesque Wings
03:16
|
|||
|
Flying in the night into the moonlit horizon
Vampiric wings from above bringing destruction
Across the toxic oceans into the dark clouds
Leaping unto light with a single bound
Fly with me, around this wretched earth
to a new plague I have given birth
Hatch my children form my seed
Join me in treachery
Flying with grotesque wings from the moonlit horizon across the sea
Nocturnal eye in the sky run my helpless prey
Wandering foolishly with no shield of the day

Rot in Sunlight
03:41
|
|||
|
Stinging rays
absurd light
peeling my flesh
my only way to die
The rise of the morning sun is my time for slumber
unlimited time for human scum to scramble for their needs
Trapped, in this physical realm, fear of the unknown
The one and only way to end my trail of this earthly hell
Dawn approaches fast
Oh morning sun, vanquish me, and my horrible nightwalking family
Turn me to dust and end my eternal misery
Erase my children and set me free
I never asked nor wanted this putrid life
Burn me in the hours of daylight
Rotting in sunlight
A taste of hell for the chosen ones
A glimpse of hope where the pests come from
Exiled into the flaming gates
Taken by its unbearable rays
Punishment for me and my kin
Burned alive and engulfed by sin
The kryptonite for all the horde when the hopeless dream to win at war

Reigning Supreme
03:18
|
|||
|
Theres only one species ruling the night
The moon gives us strength with an inhuman might
The shadows give way to the fear of our prey
We feast and we fight til the crack of day
Follow the path of my vampiric horde, and you will be in good hands for many more days
We will reign supreme
We shall reign supreme
Now look at this human that you just found
Drink from his flesh and he will be hell bound
Desecration of mankind is inevitable
Me and my army are invincible
Prisoners of blood, sources of life
Lock them in the fortress and confine them to the night

The Sanctuary
03:34
|
|||
|
Good evening my fellow brethren in dusk
In shadows and blood we trust
In the sanctum we all gather
Conversing as the one great legion
Under father Vampyrus and the curse spread upon me
Power is ours in the sanctuary
The path of prosperity through immortality shall no longer be lonely with me
Fighting along side you in war separating a time of peace
I am a beacon for lost nightwalkers
Exiled by prey, shunned blood stalkers
A gathering place for the shunned
A safe haven from not to hide nor run
Revival of the vampyrian evil I embody
Temple of healing for me and my army
Nocturnal masses gathering in secrecy
Becoming one in the name of peace
I am your vampiric shepard
Unlike deities I guide you in times of struggle

Under the moon, hell ensues
The meek are met with a hasty doom
Tyrants in power accepting fate
Dracula turns in his grave
Beasts and wolves are running rampant
Riches stolen by the bandits
Sun in slumber once again
The time has come for all to sin
All that surrounds me is fear and dead men
Nothing but annihilation reigns in the end
Followers of the dark lords magic endangering their lives
They're playing with suicide wishing to die
Wolves howl to the light
We are the kings of night
Mortal prey losing the fight
Cooking up a vicious fright
cursing what destroys them
The beginning of the end
Vamp is on the hunt
With his siblings in blood
