[Music : M. Weard / Lyrics : T. Lundin] A forgotten book - Surrounded by hate Hidden since the dawn of time - Ancient rhymes Unholy thoughts - Dimensions for the fool to tred A thousand souls - Imprisoned within - Trapped for evermore A scripture of evil - Unknown to mankind It has fallen into oblivion - Enchantment lurks Between the lines - A power, too strong to tame Cherish the cross, hold on to your faith ... The fact still remains In the deep of souls - The seeds of hate was sown And in the mind of man shall evil unfold Necronomicon ex-mortis - The book of the dead Burn the book - Free the spirits kept within Burn the book - Release them from the tomb [Lead : Mike, Marco, Mike, Marco, Mike, Marco] In the depths of darkness dwells a power beyond all human sense A supernatural force will conceal our destiny
Beware of the writ - Don't disturb the force Despair will increase - Where d**h appears ... [Lead : Conny] Behold, our future is dark - I'm ridden by fears For what is yet unknown - d**h will be taking ist toll And leave none untouched - So it is written, it shall be done [Lead : Marco] Spell has thrived - Time out of mind It will seal the fate of man - Envisage the terror The content will spread - Twilight is yet to come The dawn will die and mankind too - Hope and faith is gone In the deep of souls - The seeds of hate was sown And in the mind of man shall evil unfold Necronomicon ex-mortis - The book of the dead Withstand the book of the dead The final damnation of man All water will turn to blood and the sky above will turn as black as the fate we fear [Lead : Mike] ... The arrival of Armageddon
