THE HAUNTED LYRICS

1. Fill The Darkness With Black

[Instrumental]

[Music: Englund]

2. Brute Force

[Music: Englund, lyrics: Aro]

Destroy…
Everyone who said you're useless
These words won't seem to exit my mind
I'm that needle in a haystack
I'm pretty sure you wish you never found

You made your move, so will I
Let me show you how we make this work
You draw the line, I rub it out
Erasing the scorn, and your foolish pride

With brute force

Eliminating fear
Eliminating doubt
You took one step, I took one too

You made your move, so will I
Let me show you how we make this work
You draw the line, I rub it out
Erasing the scorn, and your foolish pride

With brute force

Let me ease my tensions
Words screaming in my head
Should I kill myself?
Or everyone else around me?

Eliminating fear
Eliminating doubt
You took one step, I took one too

You made your move, so will I
Let me show you how we make this work
You draw the line, I rub it out
Erasing the scorn, with brute force

3. Spark

[Music: Bjorler, Englund, lyrics: Aro]

Deeper and deeper
Trapped under your skin
I bet you'd never thought you'd find me here?
I'm your designed poison
Your final disease

I've come to set your world alight
All I need is a little spark
So now that I've found you
Join me at the edge of your life
From where we can watch it all burn!

Watch it all burn
Burn! Watch it all burn

One of many voices screaming in my head
Feed the spark, and I'll make them go away
Stand firm as the flames come closer, dancing on your skin
Making sure you never feel this way again

Burn!

Harder and harder to wash it clean
All the filth I left behind
Try as you may, I just won't stop

One of many voices screaming in my head
Feed the spark, and I'll make them go away
Stand firm as the flames come closer, dancing on your skin
Making sure you never feel this way again

Burn! Watch it all burn

4. Preachers Of Death

[Music: Englund, lyrics: Bjorler]

Walking the tightrope
Between good and evil
Like lambs to the slaughter
Staring into their own abyss

A war and a peace
A flock and a shepherd

The preachers of death
Awaken the dead
To a prison of belief

Vicious methods justified
Implanting the seeds of guilt
Say farewell to flesh and blood
Prepare for the sermon of lies

The preachers of death
Awaken the dead
To a prison of belief

The preachers of death
Guilty as charged
Awaken the dead
To a prison of belief

A war and a peace
A flock and a shepherd

5. Strength In Numbers

[Music: Englund, Bjorler, lyrics: Bjorler, Aro]

Lying in wait
Awaiting the resurrection
Fueled by an undying conviction
Of a prime number force

Horde, crawling
Legion, rising
Attack at my command

For everyone lost
Another demon
Spreads its wings
The swarm will be our savior
A final war

Strength in numbers
Everlasting slumber

War, the final phase
Of human contact
Empathy erased where life runs
Cheap

Horde, crawling
Legion, rising
Attack at my command
For everyone lost
Another demon
Spreads its wings
The swarm will be our savior
A final war

Strength in numbers
Eternal slumber
Strength in numbers
A final war

6. Tighten The Noose

[Music: Jensen, lyrics: Aro]

It starts as whispers
Once loud it makes your kingdom fall
Your castle of lies now crumbles
The world rejoice in watching you crawl

You know this shit will hang you
Yet you still bend the truth
Some more lies to help you
Tighten the noose!

It's easy to make a deal
If you're not the one paying the price
But you made a mistake
A rat better watch what it says to a snake

You know this shit will hang you
Yet you still bend the truth
Some more lies to help you
Tighten the noose!

You have enough rope to hang you!
You have enough rope to hang you!

7. This Is The End

[Music: Jensen, Bjorler, lyrics: Bjorler]

Hate, burning deep within
Like embers in a funeral pyre
Defeat, a mind ablaze
Guilt speaks through the wicked

I pray
To bring me home

Bury me down below
Where no one can hear me scream
Bury me down below
This is the end

Unless you're taken, come with me
Take my hand, I will make you see
Revelation, in a needle
Subjugation of the spirit

I pray
To bring me home

Bury me down below
Where no one can hear me scream
Bury me down below
This is the end

This is the end
This is the end
This is the end
This is the end

8. The Fall

[Music: Englund, Bjorler, lyrics: Bjorler]

Staring down into the abyss
Plunging deeper and deeper
I will make your nightmares
Come true
I am the reaper

I've come to leave my mark
I'll make you feel what's real
I've come to leave my mark
It's time to rise or fall

Picking up the pieces
Of a shattered existence
Like a wolf
Among you mortals
You never senses a thing
I've come to leave my mark
I'll make you feel what's real
I've come to leave my mark
It's time to rise or fall
One by one
You watch them fall

No way out
Lay it all to waste

I've come to leave my mark
I'll make you feel what's real
I've come to leave my mark
It's time to rise or fall
In the end, all we built
Will come falling down
Falling down
Like a house of cards

One by one
Will come falling down
One by one
Will come falling down

9. Means To An End

[Music: Englund, Bjorler, lyrics: Aro]

As the truth hits me
Like a bullet to the face
Turns out life means nothing
When a heart is cold
I could use a little pain

To fill the empty void, the hole I feel inside
Seems like everything I do, just ain’t enough
Thrown aside, like a piece who lost its place?
A noisome life, stained by guilt
For those I thought I left behind

Trust is my sinking stone
In this ocean of filth
Dirty lies now fill my lungs
They make it easier to breath

I rip my skin with my fingers
Drive nails down deep in my soul
In my head where they linger
Can someone please take my demons for a walk?

Will it ever end? I need some rest
This life is doing me in
Relentless hunger, endless pain
The supply will always be my demand

Trust is my sinking stone
In this ocean of filth
Dirty lies now fill my lungs
They make it easier to breath

I rip my skin with my fingers
Drive nails down deep in my soul
In my head where they linger
Can someone please take my demons for a walk?

This is a means to an end
This is a means to an end

In my head where they linger
I have come to take my demons away
I rip my throat with my fingers
We all have our means to an end

This is a means to an end
This is a means to an end

10. Monuments

[Music: Englund, lyrics: Bjorler, Englund]

The martyrs have fallen
Never to rise again
A new dawn breaks
All that remains, are the monuments

The masters dethroned
Now withering with the sands of time
Casting their shadows
All that remains are the monuments

In a world of hate, the fallen, the heroes, the weak
All forgotten, now monoliths of the damned

Storm clouds gathering
The old decrees falls like hailstones
Awaiting the slow burn sunset
Revocate the old beliefs
A day of death and dying conviction
All that remains are the monuments

Spoils of war
The leaders, the outcasts, the pure
All forgotten, now monoliths of the damned
