Headless kingdom

Headless kingdom from the dead shall rise
Doubtful authorities end is nigh
The strongest will find an order in chaos
Angels have gone
The tower of Babel is burning
Miserable, worthless puppets
Walking blind in lunatic dream
Angels are no longer entertained
Creator's thoughtless experiment has failed
False king has abandoned his sceptre
...and bleeding crown
Headless kingdom from the dead shall rise
Doubtful authorities end is nigh
Mother Nature tames her wrath
Angels despise the weakness
The tower of Babel will collapse soon
In its ruins, buried alive
Forsaken, forever loyal believers
Headless kingdom from the dead shall rise
Doubtful authorities end is nigh

Inglorious...I'm still here
Inglorious...I am your worst enemy
Inglorious I am growing stronger
You can not get rid of me
Your friend I will never be
and have never been
I know it makes you mad
I feel your envy
Would you like to see me dying?
Never see that
I am your enemy
I will never surrender
Inglorious...I'm still here
Inglorious...now I am your worst enemy
Your...worst...enemy!
The more you try to destroy me
the harder and stronger I become
The harder you threaten me
the more I'm burning
and the fire walks with me
and the fire is me

After dusk
04:45
|

|
Her day starts at night
Glow of billboards attracts thirsty moths
One after another hidden in the twilight
Sinister, helpless, insane moths
City after dusk, the city of hope
Free at night, base by day
After dusk...there are no answers
Her light smolders weaker and weaker
Desire faded in her eyes long time ago
Smell of the city, sweat, sperm, anger
Coercion? fate? choice? debauchery?
Fascination? contempt? approval? condemnation?
What does it mean to her?
Her light smolders weaker and weaker
Desire faded in her eyes long time ago
City after dusk, the city of hope
Free at night, base by day
After dusk...there are no answers

Sweet home hell
On the other side of the mirror
Evil midgets show the way
They entice with thousands of promises
Their irresistible spell poisons, paralyses
Evil midgets invite to the other side of the mirror
Like a pimp, they solicit to taste their goods
Sweet home hell
You have succumbed, gone to the other side
Now you belong to infamous elite
You are almost dead
Evil midgets seduce passionately
The show must go on, they whisper
They profess the coming of false truth prophet
The show must go on, they call
The show must go on, the show of scorn
Sweet home hell
You have succumbed, gone to the other side
Now you belong to infamous elite
You are almost dead
Like in a bad dream
At your sweet home hell
Happiness and sorrow lie on each other
Madness is required
Deceit becomes addiction
All dreams rot
Desires lead to...
death, death, death, death

Liar feat. Mixer
02:03
|
|||
|
Doubts have continued father
What is worth the word of liar?
Filthy truth has filled the gutter
Lie is addictive, destroys, exhaust
Liar? yes...you deserve the contempt son
Do you regret at all?
Where's the loyalty? rules? values?
What's the value of trust...tell me?
Forgiveness? do not count on it
Even if...the pain will remain forever
From now on you will wear the stigma eternally
The liar's stigma son...the stigma of traitor x 2

Fear...so exciting and dreadful feeling!
It stimulates, stupefies, it's addictive and paralyses.
It attacks with no warning and destroys from within.
It devours a man like a cancer, it makes him weak, then eliminates.
How cruel a scared man can be.
How far is he able to go to get rid of it?
He changes so much under its impose.
How much will he sacrifice to set himself free?
Fear...everlasting pal, a dark friend.
The Prophet of human downfall; the decay of his domination.
Unwanted bastard, the fallen angel, herald of the apocalypse.
Omen of the end...of extermination.
Fear devours a man like a cancer, it makes him weak, then eliminates.

Bitter taste of the end
03:41
|
|||
|
Cold hall, hospital benches
rubber floor, disturbing silence
the remains of hope leaking like gas
blank stares, memories, fear, helplessness
tears, hope again and ...the end
triumph of reality
she comes and takes with no sign
doubts appear when she leaves
after all
why not somebody else?
why so early?
why so suddenly?
why…

Frustration disappears with every drop
the door to normality opens slowly
sense of freedom? sure
I feel it spreading in my veins and calming me down
stress disappears with every drop
I despise troubles
one drop too many, the pressure rises
frustration? of course...it grows with every drop
I could kill...just like that...I don't care
why? - I don't know - I need to calm down
I'm calming down, with every single drop I become quieter
I'm drowning, touching the bottom...just like that I feel good, at the bottom
Leave me all alone
I'm my own saviour
this is my passion being at the bottom... I tumble
my passion is sorrow, my passion is wrath
this is my liberty...40%... units...slumber

Treat evil with evil
03:51
|
|||
|
blind fascination, fatal decision
false friend, defeat and downfall
anger and frustration
whilst searching an outlet
give birth to demons and ...enlightens me!
how to love the hate
and not turn the other cheek
how to distinguish evil from evil
and how with evil shall evil be defeated
yes...evil shall with evil be expelled
treat evil with evil!
listening to the heart, I'm losing my mind
being merciful, I commit a crime
compassion counting on, I'm exposed to the ridicule
while awaiting help, I'm losing all
teacher of life ... fate
hope ... mother of fools
human's friend ... fear
enlightens me!
how with evil shall evil be defeated
yes...evil shall with evil be expelled
treat evil with evil!

In Your Blood
by Excessive Force
supported by 4 fans who also own “Headless kingdom”
It's simple. "In Your Blood" is unquestionably one of the best Hardline albums not only of the 90's, but of all time. If you purport to be vegan, straight edge and don't own this album, it is only right that you are publicly shamed.

The boys and girls of Cursed Earth told me on their Facebook page that I must buy this. So I had no choice. Damn fine metallic HC. Grabbed me right from the opening riffs. Worth your money.
