Discography:


Awakening Beyond (demo, 2006, Independent) (CD)

1. Invation Of The Ark Of Blood 5:18
"In this darkness"

My eyes
Gone blind
Hidden truth
Seeking lies

Terror haunting me
Pain in eternity

"Invasion"

The ark blood I saw in my dream
Terrible sight from Satan's stream
Like nothing I've seen, is being fulfilled

"In the shadows I stray
And I survive on the living..."

You who pray will be saved by grace
Rescued from the never-ending maze

2. The Unborn (Abortion Day) 6:09
3. The Plague And The Divine 4:35
Risen from the grave beyond
The plague is marching on
To the city of them who lives
Their sorry lives gone blind

"The plague who shall appear
Will destroy the balance within"

Unbound the plague moves on
To this speechless prey
The fight will last no longer
Man has no power of will

They will scream
They will shout his Name

Tears of sorrow
Fly to his divine

"The plague who shall appear
Will destroy the balance within"

Fight
The holy war
Take your stand and sacrifice

"Tears of sorrow
Fly to his divine"

One by one they stand their ground
The weapons they use is the truth
Brothers and sisters is standing tall
Waiting for the plague to fall

Once again the plague must end
The force divine makes the difference

4. Rise Of The Machine 4:24
Fall to the ground to save yourself
Your own sympathy
Earthly life
To gain
For itself and tomorrow

Striking force of up above
The light was always too strong to take
I can't recall what I meant
When I was searching justice

Wait and bleed
When you are waiting
Rise and take
The life of the living

Bigger forces that claim their heritage
Of mother earth and Gaia
Who are you to judge when yourself is a slave

Wait for the end of all
To begin the journey to fall
The given life is failed
Wait and bleed

"See the light
Wipe your tears"

Life beyond
Save us

Taken and throwned away
Then it have nothing to say
Structure of failure

Last Adam (single, January 11, 2018, Independent) (Digital)

1. Last Adam 4:50
Not so sure
But still so proud and vain
Conceited and closed
Feeding their self-made doctrine
Crucified again for their transgression
Over and over
The proud He resist
And for such, there is no grace
Full of themself and pantomimes
For a broken system

Humble yourself

We stumble and we fall
We trust and give it all
For the Man who gave us light
So in darkness, we'll shine bright

Beware of false apostles
That feeds on your light for their own misery
Expose and bring light to their fate
But in love, not in pride
You shall give them no harm
Watch your tongue
Don't be tempted
You are not the judge

In you there is a darkness that needs to die
From the last Adam to the last Adam
We were all lost and sick
But the Man who was God defeated the plague
And made a way for us to be victorious
Two ways, one is death
Either way, your choice is what you get

Humble yourself

We stumble and we fall
We trust and give it all
For the Man who gave us light
So in darkness, we'll shine bright

Memento Mori (single)

April 6, 2021, Independent (Digital)
June 4, 2021, Vision Of God Records (Digital)

1. Memento Mori 4:15
Horrified and static
Left alone in panic
Lifeline has ended
Never to be mended

Thoughts running through your head
As you lay there in your bed
Darkness closing in on you
Nothing more that you can do

Death has come to collect your soul

Destiny
The path of the broken
Kept away
From the life that was spoken
Who's to blame
The wolf or the shepherd
Either way
Their lifeline is severed

Asleep in the light
As darkness consumes
Now is the time
To rise again

I am the resurrection and life
Whoever believes in me, even in death - he shall live
And everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die
Do you believe?
Do you believe?

He will wipe away my tears
And death shall be no more
No more mourning, pain or crying
Former things have passed away

Behold, I am making things new
Come and drink from the water of life
I will be your God, and you will be my precious son
