The Coffin Train
Belly Of The Beast
It makes you feel good
Tastes so high
Creeping, numbing fingertips
As a vision passes through my mind
It takes my demands
And brings me to life
As long as I know when to bleed
I know my veins won’t feel denied
You’re the salt of the earth
Ascending the same
And know what you’re worth
When you suffer in the belly of the beast
Suffer
Suffer
When you suffer in the belly of the beast
Suffer
Suffer
When you suffer in the belly of the beast
Sensations run high
And apathy flows
A continuance of repentance
That cradles all indifference
It makes you feed
On chalk and gasoline
A synergy of ecstasy sparks fires
And denies relief
Let’s you know
There never was control
Diving in your secondary skin
You’re the salt of the earth
Ascending the same
And know what you’re worth
When you suffer in the belly of the beast
The tension in here
Is breaking the noose
A never ending calamity, anamnesis that buries you
Been there so long
Squeezing you tight
A deceptive kiss, a deathly grip
That deafens you to slit your wrists
You’re the salt of the earth
Ascending the same
And know what you’re worth
When you suffer in the belly of the beast
Suffer
Suffer
When you suffer in the belly of the beast Suffer
Suffer
When you suffer in the belly of the beast Suffer
Suffer
When you suffer in the belly of the beast Suffer
Suffer
When you suffer in the belly of the beast

The Messenger
The spirits rise in the dead man’s tomb
Worlds deprived under his name
He rides above your city
And decides if to lay down his hand
Stories are told since the dawn of days
And when it’s your time remember his name
You hear the words
For the last time
You hear him cry
I am the messenger of Death
And I keep a ledger filled with wrath
For I am your messenger of Death
And I keep a ledger with all your names
When he was born his mother died
Fate said her words, the cruelest lie
The end is only a beginning
Through the flames and the feathers damned
From whence he came the dark divine
In the purest form Death is time
You say your words
One last time, and even then
You hear him cry
I am the messenger of Death
And I keep a ledger filled with wrath
For I am your messenger of Death
And I keep a ledger with all your names
I am the messenger of Death
And I keep a ledger filled with wrath
For I am your messenger of Death
And I keep a ledger with all your names
Andersen/Tatler/Wilcox
The Coffin Train
A canvas made of skin
And painted by their tears
In the colours of the damned
The lies will tell the truth
In the suffocating lands
When the children die in the womb
It’s an eye for an eye
On the scales of the coffin train
Seek redemption, repent and
Sell the divine’s dead love
The world hangs as a blind man
He writes in ink of blood and betrays the words
Their history paved with bones
And the horizon will unleash
Another chapter that’s buried in ghosts
As time abandons youth
And their pillars fall enraged
A fate so infinitely mans
It’s an eye for an eye
On the scales of the coffin train
Seek redemption, repent and
Sell the divine’s dead love
The world hangs as a blind man
He writes in ink of blood and betrays the words
And the world is set ablaze on a coffin train
And though all man is to blame
They’re the ones who deserve to die
But we die first
And so it goes the fear it eats us up from inside
And in the end we’re euthanising all human kind
And then again time is a’running out
For the crows are a’calling
Before the dawn an empire might see their demise
At the hands of the young with the fire in their eyes
And in the end time will run out
For the coffins are awaiting
Get off the coffin train
Just get off the coffin train
Get off the coffin train
Yeah just take down the coffin train
Take down the coffin train!
Andersen/Tatler/Wilcox
Shades of Black
The voices cry for a broken spirit
Whispers ‘rest in peace now’ weeping for him in secret
The night breaks through the clouds as witness
To the sorrow that’s unforgiving and the light slowly diminishes
As I lie here and float in between
The shades of black
I look upon the stars yours is brightest of them all
I need a long time to grieve and replenish emotion
Your words are sewn into our hearts bereaved
Fuse together pieces while we’re holding in all our tears
The lights break through the dark to listen
As the songs ring unforgiving and our voices are undiminishing
And as I lie here and float in between
The shades of black
I look upon the stars yours is brightest of them all
I need a long time to grieve and replenish emotions
Rusty nails on the ground now you’re free of your cage
And the sound of your voice will forever live on
In the strength of your words we’ll remember your fire
From the earth into stone and through bones we live and we die Live and die
Andersen/Tatler/Ashton/Wilcox
The Sleeper Prelude
Beware the voice that crushes steel
For when the wicked rise and seal the earth
The young will stand to bring about the reckoning
In our darkest hour let them hear you roar
Let them hear your rage
We will shake the earth, we will shatter their walls
Bring us out of darkness
The task borders on impossible
But from among you giants will emerge
Set fire to the skies and bring justice to the worlds

The Sleeper
Staring into the dark
Cold hands wrapped around the heart
A quiet war and a hidden truth
The ashes fallen to the ground reveals a destiny
Holy mother’s poison needle trials my fears
The flesh erodes into the bone
Epiphany slumbers at the seams within
It echoes to Shai Hulud
Prophecy rising from the sands
The keepers of the lands
The sleeper must awaken
The sleeper that’s deep inside
The sleeper must awaken
For the sleeper can never die
Stare into the womb
Drink the bile and tread through dreams no more
Holy worms will split the earth and blacken the sun
The witches told the spice must flow
Let the voices crush and break the temples in you
And give into Shai Hulud
Prophecy rises from the sands
The people of the lands
The sleeper must awaken
The sleeper that’s deep inside
The sleeper must awaken
For the sleeper can never die
And from the depths of the moon
A name will echo through time
As the giants rise up from the earth
To end the silent war under the golden sky
And they will carry justice to the nations
Father the sleeper’s awakened
The sleeper that’s deep inside The sleeper must awaken
For the sleeper can never die The sleeper must awaken
The sleeper that’s deep inside The sleeper must awaken
For the sleeper can never die
Andersen/Tatler/Wilcox
Death By Design
Out of the furnace and into the fire
It’s a cruel game of death and desire
You can say his name and preach to the choir
When your days end it’s a one way smile
I’m heading down
I’m wrapped in fire sails
I’m coming down
To be back with all my friends
Feel the heat I’m satisfied
There’s no defeat in death by design
Feel the heat and testify
Feed the fire in death by design
Out of the furnace and into the streets
It’s a cruel game with the days on repeat
You can play the game or set it all alight
Match the scars from your birth with a one way smile
I’m heading down
I'm blessed in my betrayals
I’m coming down
Yeah to be back with all my friends
Feel that heat I’m satisfied
There’s no defeat in death by design
Feel the heat and testify
Feed the fire in death by design
I’m going down in a blaze of light
Unlike them I never said no to life
I’m going down
Oh into the furnace
Oh where I’m sanctified
So feel that heat I’m satisfied
There’s no defeat in death by design
Feel the heat and testify
We feed the fire in death by design
Oh I’m going down I’m going down
I’m going down, down
I’m going down I’m going down
I’m going down
Andersen/Tatler/Wilcox
Serrated Love
A thousand years have passed since I walked upon her shores
A thousand tears have cracked the salty face of this earth
And is there no one else whom can walk upon her shores
And to gaze into her pearls is to live forevermore
To reach in the eye of your masters
To see past the limits and feel her
Supreme love serrated heart
And then seek her timeless love
Now her constellations are fading and abandoned
The dead lights imploding that burn up in her sun
They’re calling out your name while her tears they pierce the night And when you fall into her world then you’ll live forevermore
And reach in the eye of your masters
To see through the limits and feel a
Supreme love serrated heart
And then seek her timeless love
Whispers of the end cinders in her hair
As we follow her down below, love
Her kisses drifting through the stars
As her love sings loud
And feel a supreme love serrated heart And then seek her timeless love
Love...
Andersen/Tatler/Abberley/Ashton/Wilcox
The Phoenix
While the crows are circling my bones
And I’m crucified upon their stones
I’ll take the time to send off a gallows grin
Before unleashing the lions resting within
So follow me, into the death of this reflection
Follow me, the journey starts with who you are
And I’m dying... Dying while I’m dreaming
And I’m dying... Dying to rise like the phoenix
As the blood it drips down from my crown
And I’m counting down ’til hell is born
I’ve given death the chance to comfort me
Before she steals my breath and takes me beneath
So follow me, into the death of your deception
Follow me, the journey ends with who you are
And I’m dying... Dying while I’m dreaming
And I’m dying... Dying to rise like the phoenix
So follow me, into the death of your confession
Follow me, the journey answers to who you are
And I’m dying... Dying while I’m dreaming
And I’m dying... Dying to rise like the phoenix
Ohh...tired now
Tired from this resurrection
For the lions, the lions are restless
They crave to be released
So follow me, into the depth of your inception
Follow me, the circle’s only just begun
Andersen/Abberley/Ashton/Wilcox
Until We Burn
Born to be kings but defeated by time
Black Country dreams they were leased for a while
But the way to glory and love is through pain
Chasing a world on the ladders made of golden tomes
Until the end the lights will shine
After it ends the songs survive
Hope is burned into the shadows of our veins
Though the road winds far over the earth
Into the sun until we burn
Landslide of demons one poisoned ego burning bright
The change of the seasons lightning releases new fire
But the way to glory and love is through pain
Chasing a world on the ladders made of golden tomes
Until the end the lights will shine
After it ends the songs survive
Hope is burned into the shadows of our veins
Though the road winds far over the earth
Into the sun until we burn
Until the end the lights will shine
After it ends the songs survive
Hope is burned into the shadows of our veins
Though the road winds far over the earth
Into the sun until we burn
Engraved in the songs and the words
Forevermore until we burn
Andersen/Tatler/Wilcox
