1.	Cleanse The Earth 04:00	lyrics	buy track
Purification by fire The only way to get rid of all the filth From flesh to fertile ashes New life spawned from death Global annihilation Flaming armageddon Salvation through catastrophe Century-long nuclear winter Apocalyptic blaze Setting mankind afire Cleansing the earth From all human scum
2.	Intoxication 03:51	lyrics	buy track
Poisoning the body to numb the mind Compulsive consumption of toxic concoctions An irresistible urge triggering every nerve Initiating a slow self-destruction Invalidating your fears through special elixirs Drowning your sorrow like there’s no tomorrow Because facing reality is just so pointless But when the glass is empty you’ll still be thirsty Poisoning the body to numb the mind Compulsive consumption of toxic concoctions An irresistible urge triggering every nerve Initiating a slow self-destruction
3.	Ritual Cannibalism 03:36	lyrics	buy track
The missionaries are mad at us But we don’t understand why Now we fear for our lives It’s either us or them Catholic priests stabbed and shot Their blood maculates the snow Oh Nuliajuk, what have we done? Oh Nuliajuk, what have we done? Their livers we must ritually consume Then maybe we will be spared from Her Wrath
4.	Back To The Soil 06:04	lyrics	buy track
Time to give back to Mother Earth The life that she’d lent to you Ashes to ashes, dust to dust With gratitude, back to the soil A terminal fate that awaits us all The decaying flesh will nourish the land The endless cycle of life and death With gratitude, back to the soil Returning precious materials So new life can grow Decomposed by tiny creatures Transformed and rendered Perpetually recycled Part of the universe Your discarnate soul Vanishes in the void Your consciousness Put out like a candle Your senseless existence Now just a memory
5.	Cultural Genocide 03:05	lyrics	buy track
In their invisible graves Children are still crying Their souls, in eternal suffering Pain from a vivid past Identity, eliminated Pride, terminated Integrity, forsaken Youth, broken Identity, eliminated Pride, terminated Innocence, stolen Lives, taken
6.	Stars Fell From The Sky 03:08	lyrics	buy track
Harsh winter of 1941 A self-proclaimed Prophet And a simple man designated as a God Killing those who don’t believe The stars shall fall from Heaven Announcing the Saviour’s return Another twisted interpretation Of the worthless Holy Book Naive believers freezing to death More victims for the imaginary God People killed in the name of a God who doesn’t exist People killed in the name of a God who doesn’t exist
7.	Die Säuberung 04:11	lyrics	buy track
Die Jagd beginnt Und sie wird enden Mit uns Auf dem Scheiterhaufen Erst wenn alle hingerafft Und die Säuberung zu Ende ist Haben wir Nichts mehr zu beweinen Das Ende einer Plage Die viel zu lange Wütete Ein letztes großes Fest So viele tausend Körper Verspeist sie, verspeist sie Und lebt In einer Welt im Wandel Ich überlass’ sie euch Nun gehet hin in Frieden Jetzt Da der Mensch beseitigt Jetzt gibt es nur noch mich Ein Mann in einer fremden Welt Tod Ich warte auf dich Ich greife mir ein Seil Steige auf den höchsten Ast Meine Art Stirbt mit mir Du schöne heile Welt Die Jagd ist zu Ende Dies ist die Zäsur Und ich springe
8.	Dying Planet 06:14	lyrics	buy track
Capitalism and corporate greed Are killing our planet The final countdown has already begun Species are quickly dying out Destruction of our own environment Mass extinction Raping and killing Mother Earth For a select few’s profit Living on a dying planet We will die with our Mother Living on a dying planet (Matricide) We will die with our Mother
