FEAR

The world now stands ancient, showing her age
Antique, senile, archaic
Peroration impending, not one to assuage
The human remnants of earth
Pandemic winds chill the soul
Eradication of the will
Nihilism extracts its toll
Frightening the meekly servile

Sacrosanct, the religious ones
Are fast becoming extinct
Chaotic precursors of what will befall
Permeate the night air
The fear of the end preys on the minds
Of all the soon-to-be dead
With death at the hands of a hideous fiend
A grisly fate to comprehend

DEATH
(chorus)
This city is guilty
The crime is life
The sentence is death
Darkness descends
(repeat 3 times)

FIRE
Internal combustion, plutonic rage
The bodies create their own hell
The flame from within, unleashed from its cage
Purging the great sins of all
Admissions of guilt are all that are sought
By judges who have twisted laws
The quick abrogation of the populace
Striking with great enmity

Listing the ways in which we will die
As the prophets claim we will soon
Self-immolation that unjustified
Stygian shores ahead loom
The coffins are ready, the death warrant signed
Depression has swiftly set in
Inimical powers against humankind
This charnelhouse ensanguined

DEATH
(chorus)
This city is guilty
The crime is life
The sentence is death
Darkness descends
(repeat 3 times)

MORTIS
Decaying, the ruins fall swift to the ground
The carnage is morbid and great
Mephitic deathstench of corpses abound
The earth meets an untimely fate
The horrific malignance, spreading its wings
Across the expanse of the sky
Contamination and all that it brings
The judges commit genocide

Retaliation, a useless ploy
We've gazed into the face of fear
We know that it stands for our own bitter end
The end we realize is now here
The claws of denouement grasp at our lungs
Asphyxiation rules supreme
The future of mankind cut down while they're young
Our children die clutching their dreams...

DEATH
This city is guilty
The crime is life
The sentence is death
Darkness descends

Any sense or meaning to this or is it just meaningless rambling ?

Lets listen to and read one more:

The Burning Of Sodom

Once, the tale of Sodom
Brought anguish to the eyes
Of all god-fearing people
With eternal afterlives
Sin and lust run rampant now
Perversion on the rise
Reliving all the ways of old
Gommorrah realized

Sodom, an unholy place
Angels searched for a few
Souls who'd yet to fall from grace
To save them from the doom
Paradise of pleasures lost
Herein the future lies
Laughing at the "holy cross"
As death rained from the skies

(chorus)
Falling from the heavens
Angels lie decayed
Burning, city of Sodom
One by one, sinners pay

Skeptics failed to heed the call
Of angels sent to tell
Of the impending death to all
In blazing city hell
Consorting with the demons craft
The ways of god repelled
Burning cross, cause to laugh
Lot, the one expelled

(chorus)
Falling from the heavens
Angels lie decayed
Burning, city of Sodom
One by one, sinners pay

GUITAR SOLOS: E. MEYER

The sufferers' impalement
Inside the city gates
Worshipping the holy priests
The masters of all hate
The flag of the inverted cross
Menacing, held high
Laughing at the "holy cross"
At twelve, the virgin dies!!

Our righteous family did escape
The family-father lot
Sinful daughters succumbed to rape
Not as holy as thought!!
Mankind throughout eternity
Built on evils' designs
The resilience of iniquity
Lives on in christian minds

(chorus)
Falling from the heavens
Angels lie decayed
Burning, city of Sodom
One by one, sinners pay!!!

What is the meaning of this ?

It means you listen to some candy-ass bands.

Throw out your parasol collection and try Meshuggah.

Never waste an opportunity to insult people from behind the safety of a monitor and keyboard do you ?

Yes, Meshuggah is very good Surprised anyone here has heard of them.

Want my parasol ? How about my silk undies ? They're stain free

No worries, I'd happily say the same thing to your face.

Nah, I'm not one to take security blankets from kids.

Turn that shit off, you have a lawn to mow, but first get up here and tell these hoodlums you haven't got time for any rides.

It's interesting this insecurity you seem to have that makes you work an insult into so many of your posts. I would ask you why you find it necessary if I thought you would or could honestly answer.

Carry on then.

Given that there's no other way, you'll have to content yourself with simply repeating the obvious.

I consider your comments stupid and worthy of the type of replies they get. In fact, you get those types of answers so often, it makes it rather clear that you crave that sort of attention. Rather like a 4 year old.

Clear enough for you?

Youngins', you either knock it off or I am turning this car around and locking you together in the attic.

Clearly you guys need more Job for a Cowboy around here.

It's interesting that the first poster to comment here is tanngrisnir3 who starts right in with an insult:

"It means you listen to some candy-ass bands."

The purpose of the thread wasn't to review or criticise the music or the band.

He then moves into "tough guy" mode with:

No worries, I'd happily say the same thing to your face.

Back to what he does best with:

Nah, I'm not one to take security blankets from kids.

then more;

I'm trying to understand how I am equally deserving of punisment

You'd be bitter too if you were so lonely.
