From the ashes of a corrupt undying world
They raise like a phoenix
A godless entity
They are the Khaos Legions

"Yesterday Is Dead And Gone"
letras
The fire's inside us tonight
These bridges will burn so bright
Tomorrow bears our name
No more power games
[Harmony Lead - Michael & Christopher]
Reaching for the light beyond
We will rise through the dark again
Ready to fight for what we believe to be right
Yesterday is dead and gone
[Pre-Chorus:]
Rattling the chains - shaking the cage
Heed our war cry
Let there be no doubt - we want out
This is reckoning day
[Chorus (melody - Michael):]
We are standing in the flames
Reaching for the sky
Fight to the end
Yesterday is dead and gone
Under a blood red sky
Our voice will be heard in a world
Where compassion is lost
You try to control us
This is so absurd
Freedom will be won at any cost
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Lead - Christopher]
Yesterday is dead and gone
[Lead - Michael]
[Pre-Chorus]
[Outro lead - Christopher]
This is reckoning time
Yesterday is dead and gone

"Bloodstained Cross"
letras
Gripping the strength of belief
Old tales and lies you trust
In the end there is no relief
A final breath you're breathing dust
[Lead - Christopher]
Get up off your praying knees
The door is about to slam shut
Armageddon, drawing near
As darkness engulfs your soul
All the prayers in this world
Won't help you now
You deceived, they believed
In your bloodstained cross
You deceived, they believed
In your bloodstained cross
A perverted truth your reality
Forced your beliefs on the weak
Power twisted by years of abuse
The strong shall inherit the meek
Get up off your praying knees
The door is about to slam shut
Armageddon, drawing near
As darkness engulfs your soul
All the prayers in this world
Won't help you now
You deceived, they believed
In your bloodstained cross
You deceived, they believed
In your bloodstained cross
[Mike solo]
You deceived, they believed
In your bloodstained cross
You deceived, they believed
In your bloodstained cross
[Harmony lead - Michael & Christopher]
[Under solo:]
All the prayers in this world
Won't help you now

"Under Black Flags We March"
letras
Your hate is our trigger
Revolution now
The more we have to suffer
The more we will fight
With our fists up in the air!
Legions marching ready to fire
These streets will burn - let the black flag rise
Legions marching ready to fire
Empires of corruption - crash and fall
Under black flags we march...
The voice of rebellion calls your name
Servants of the truth are standing tall
With our fists up in the air!
Legions marching ready to fire
These streets will burn - let the black flag rise
Legions marching ready to fire
Empires of corruption - crash and fall
[Harmony lead - Michael & Christopher]
Legions marching ready to fire
These streets will burn - let the black flag rise
Legions marching ready to fire
Empires of corruption - crash and...

"No Gods, No Masters"
letras
Here I am, back to the wall,
I picked the fight against the time,
Free at last I go my own way,
I will resist them, till the day I die,
I am who I am; my time has come.
I am who I am, take it or leave it,
A rebel at heart,
No gods, no masters,
My time has come.
There is no second place,
No perfect world,
Your head is whole,
Freedom in your heart,
Be strong; take this chance,
Make your way; a better future comes.
I am who I am; my time has come.
I am who I am, take it or leave it,
A rebel at heart,
No gods, no masters,
My time has come.
No gods, no masters.
What doesn't kill us make us stronger.
Locked and loaded ready to strike,
You stand loud and proud, united as one.
I am who I am, take it or leave it,
A rebel at heart,
No gods, no masters,
My time has come.

"City Of The Dead"
letras
In this city of broken dreams
Monuments of death arise
This is the Necropolis
Where the nameless live and breathe
Rotten tombs of ancient kings
Days of glory are gone
A mockery to the living souls
Confined in darkness
Trapped inside these walls
Between their father's bones
Stillborn to this world
All their hopes are lost
Doomed to live on a burial ground
An empty shrine their home
The poorest of society
Find some shelter but no peace
Children play between the stones
Laughter echoes from the walls
Their cradle of innocent joy
Will be their grave of sorrow
Trapped inside these walls
Between their father's bones
Stillborn to this world
All their hopes are lost
No safety, no dignity, no light, no justice,
no future, no home and nowhere to go
Their misery, frustration, anger, depression,
sadness, madness will drown in hatred
[Lead - Michael / Christopher]
Trapped inside these walls
Between their father's bones
Stillborn to this world
All their hopes are lost

"Through The Eyes Of A Raven"
letras
Broken bodies stiff from storms
Our spirits scarred to ice
The only witness left alive
The raven and its staring eyes
Taste the blood
Hear their cries
Horrifying genocide
We lost our paradise
Through the eyes of the raven
See the slaughter, your crimes
They will remember
And so shall I
[Melody - Christopher]
When I die
Let the ravens fly
Let my body lie
Under snow and blood
The wolves of war at your throat
Leave nothing but severed bones
Scattered upon battlefields
Life is the price you pay
He who is proud is not for long
He who is brave will be destroyed
Your murder a heavy crown
Layered with thorns of shame
Through the eyes of the raven
See the slaughter, your crimes
They will remember
And so shall I
[Melody - Christopher]
When I die
Let the ravens fly
Let my body lie
Under snow and blood
[2x]

"Cruelty Without Beauty"
letras
Disinfected torture chamber
A scientific abattoir
Their death is the price of your progress
If these walls could talk, they'd scream
No empathy
No dignity
Cruelty without beauty
Cruelty without beauty
Archaic rhetoric your weak defense
Your victims have no choice, no voice
Look in their eyes, does it still make sense?
A plastic bag their burial gown
No empathy
No dignity
Cruelty without beauty
Cruelty without beauty
[Solos]
A legacy of evil you preserve
Their blood cannot be washed clean
In my eyes their brutal fate you deserve
In your dreams you will hear them scream

"Cult Of Chaos"
letras
Chaos is creation
A swirling mass of atoms and ideas
Natural selection the sculptor of all life
Survival of the fittest, all your tall tales are dead
We are legion, one will and one heartbeat
This is anarchy
We are a godless entity
[Lead - Christopher]
There are many ways to die
But only one way to live
Let the cult of chaos reign
Be as free as you can be
[Melody - Michael]
[Lead - Christopher]
Confusion, diffusion, your system in turmoil
Disillusion, revolution, the storm to cleanse this world
False prophets, propaganda
Speak in tongues and dead words
'Til the fangs of reality
Will sink into their throats
This is anarchy
We are a godless entity
There are many ways to die
But only one way to live
Let the cult of chaos reign
Be as free as you can be
[Melody - Michael]
There will be dead silence and then a new beginning
Let the cult of chaos reign
[Melody - Christopher]
[Lead - Christopher]
There are many ways to die
But only one way to live
Let the cult of chaos reign
Be as free as you can be

"Thorns In My Flesh"
letras
[Intro lead - Michael]
Liar, liar
Conceal the truth
Severed tongue
With a serpent's fire
Beggar, pursuer
Master of deceit
With your own interest at heart
When it all came to light
Innocence was lost
How do you sleep at night
Lost trust turned to dust
[Lead - Christopher]
All for one, one for all
Did not apply to you
An intricate web of lies
As the wheels kept on turning
[Melody - Michael]
No more thorns in my flesh
No more chains hold me down
I control my destiny
[Lead - Michael]
Liar, liar

Lost trust turned to dust

"Vengeance Is Mine"
letras
Infestation
Of spirit and flesh
Indignation
Is all you left me with
Domination
Your ultimate goal
Transmigration
You will lose control

I will rise up and prove you wrong
I have been waiting in the shadows for too long
[Harmony - Michael & Christopher]
The gates are opening - My true self unleashed

Laceration
Of my mind and soul
Alteration
Your truth is full of lies
Liberation
Sweet revenge is mine
Devastation
You will burn in my hell

I will rise up and prove you wrong
I have been waiting in the shadows for too long

"Secrets"
letras
[Intro melody - Michael]
I've got a secret - I just can't tell
I have created my own hell
If you knew what I know
It would change your perfect world
Locked the vault - Thrown away the key
My lips are forever sealed
Buried in a place you'll never see
This secret dies with me
Don't ask me - For I cannot tell
Words can kill - Sharp as a blade of steel
Skeletons of the past...
This burden, this pain
Were all these tears in vain?
Memories of the past return
This one is going with me to the grave
It is beating me up inside
To that I must confess
Secret weighing down my soul
Until I draw my very last breath
Don't ask me - For I cannot tell
Words can kill - Sharp as a blade of steel
Skeletons of the past...
Skeletons of the past...
[Lead - Michael]
Skeletons of the past...
Skeletons of the past...
[Lead - Christopher]

"The Zoo"
letras
[Scorpions Cover]
The job is done and I go out
Another boring day
I leave it all behind me now
So many worlds away
I meet my girl, she's dressed to kill
And all we gonna do
Is walk around to catch the thrill
On streets we call the zoo
[Chorus:]
We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo
Enjoy the zoo
And walk down 42nd Street
You Gonna be excited too
And you will feel the heat
[Chorus x2]
