1. Nightmare World

Lyrics

Let us meet beside the field
That stretches across the nightmare world
There it rains the coldest rain
But there we’ll meet again, again

I know in my heart it’s hopeless
I know in my heart it’s hopeless

Let us dive into the stream
That flows across the nightmare field
There the water shines like glass
And there we’ll meet again, again

I know in my heart it’s hopeless
I know in my heart it’s hopeless

I see God up in the sky
Looking down at our nightmare world
I feel His breath right on my skin
He says we’ll meet again, again

I know in my heart it’s hopeless
I know in my heart it’s hopeless

2. Abominations

Lyrics

In the park, abomination
Gnashing teeth, abomination
Gasping mouths, abomination
Broken knees, abomination

Abomination, abomination
Abomination, abomination

Sharpened sticks, abomination
Polished guns, abomination
On this night, abomination
You were born, abomination

Abomination, abomination
Abomination, abomination

Worm
You are an abomination
You are an abomination
Oh you are an abomination
You worm

3. Ghosts!

Lyrics

It came out of her eyes
This she swore, this she cried
Like the vapor or the mist of a ghost

Word spread around town
It was seen creeping ‘round
Transparent and clear as a ghost

Prayers folks did pray
Every hour, every day
For the Lord to come banish the ghost

Speak to us, speak to us
Tell us why this town was chosen
Deliver us, deliver us
Free us from this haunted prison

But nothing did change
No nothing did change
And we locked our doors to the ghost

But doors they do crack
From the smallest impact
So we burned the whole town
Full of ghosts

And fear did create
A force that was great
As the tide of a thousand ghosts

Speak to us, speak to us
Tell us why this town was chosen
Deliver us, deliver us
Free us from this haunted prison

4. Dead Trees Reaching

Lyrics

My church it was condemned
My faith it was destroyed
The forest full of nameless things
My only place to hide

Walking through the woods
Lost, alone and lost
A devil riding on my back
And dead trees reaching down

Trees were reaching
Dead trees reaching
Down for me

I tore them with my teeth
White and razor sharp
My eyes were losing focus now
Drowning in the dark

Never was I found
My soul nor my bones
And every time the branches stir
I tremble in the ground

Trees were reaching
Dead trees reaching
Down for me

5. The Party’s Over

Lyrics

Enjoy this poison while you can
And drink these nightmares from my hand
We’re growing weaker every hour
And it won’t be long until the party’s over

Graveyard gates are opening
Graveyard gates are opening
Graveyard gates are opening
Graveyard gates are opening
The party’s over

Carve these visions in your brain
And call out to that nameless name
Ascend with me to the holy tower
Time to rest now the party’s over

Graveyard gates are opening
Graveyard gates are opening
Graveyard gates are opening
Graveyard gates are opening
The party’s over
