BIOLOGICAL EXPERIMENTS (M. Edvardsson) Boxed, caged, see-thru walls Stainless steel, bars, welded thoroughly together Cold, sterile environment Let the biological experiments begin Injecting cells, new growth takes shape Circulation restrained, the temperature drops Mutations. Rarely fed, life form begins to fade Let the biological experiments begin Let the biological experiments begin Twisting, turning, improve the joints Mechanical enhanced, superior race New life form has been given a face This is the end of the human race Engage; Mission destroy Force fed, instructions Expendable, cheap, sophisticated Culling the weak, become the hated Let the biological experiments begin Let the biological experiments begin Obsolete, left for dead, taken down, turned off Reborn again in a new form Boxed, caged, here we go again Let the biological experiments begin Boxed, caged, see-thru walls Stainless steel, bars, welded thoroughly together Cold, sterile environment Chained to the wall, this is the final call Let the biological experiments begin Let the biological experiments begin

BEHIND THE FACE (M. Edvardsson) Darkness confined Blackest thoughts projected across subconscious mind The weak cannot be protected Become the truth, put the mask behind Open your mind, bring the world to light Behold yourself with different eyes Grasp the truth, put yourself aside The uncontrolled becomes the state of mind Behind the mask Show the face Become the truth No one can trace Behind the face Deeds in veil In shadows your face remain unknown Come forth, reveal yourself to the naked eye - untouched by the judging eyes Another world far beyond the truth Lies the shadow or yours awaiting The presence of self is unknown Until your conscious mind awakens

Architect 05:01
ARCHITECT (M. Edvardsson) Hoping for an end, waiting for the sun to die The wish for everything to be gone Searching for the paradise, desperation floats around The only way to go is a double barrelled gun Architect, you are ruining your life Building your dream - life demise Nothing inside but darkness, walking hand in hand with death Dwelling in slumbering state of mind Eyes are blinded by sight of all the lies Never feared the dark, embracing every step through the blackened gate Architect, you are ruining your life Building your dream - life demise Unblessed soul cast in blackest soil The final push from the edge of life Waiting for the final end to unfold Salvation is forever gone, this is the end of all times Architect, you are ruining your life Building your dream - life demise

The Release 03:59
THE RELEASE (M. Edvardsson) I'm not afraid to walk down the green mile And all the sins I've made, I know they all are mine I don't regret the harm that I have done Of the pain I caused, nothing can be made undone The release of me Put me out of my misery Flick the power switch on Watching the body freeze up Electrical current running through the bones Contorted limbs twitching uncontrolled The reek of burning flesh The steps are slow down the corridors Anxiety, the loneliness is strong My body becomes my temple That temple will burn Where justice is being done The release of me Put me out of my misery I burn and justice is being served
5.
DIE OR SURRENDER (M. Edvardsson) Far beyond, where no one's ever been Way beyond the darkest thought within Search in the mind, the labyrinth of sin Deep within under the solid skin Die or surrender Succumb to darkness Die or surrender Awaken the dead Consumed by darkness, resurrected from below Consumed by darkness, where mortal sins will flow Through the veins, the salty tears Boiling blood will burn the mind with fear Ascending to a place much higher Now it's too late, you will succumb to fire Die or surrender Succumb to darkness Die or surrender Awaken the dead Consumed by darkness, resurrected from below Consumed by darkness, where mortal sins will flow

TURN YOUR BACK (Music: Edvardsson. Lyrics: Wassberg, Edvardsson) You call yourself a human when there is no humanity You pray about your life You just turn your back beaten, blue and sore The world is turning black Ripping, body shreds apart Twisting, pain inside the heart You don't care you won't be near Suck it out without a thought of share Suck it out with selfishness I can remember you I know who you are I've seen you before You took my soul apart When you're alone I won't be there for you No one will ease your pain You'll be screaming loud of agony I'm waiting for your death

For No Other 03:58
FOR NO OTHER (Music: M. Edvardsson. Lyrics J. Wassberg) The world is fading Shadows getting longer Eyes are watching You can see something's crawling Now it opens Feet on the soil Jaws of evil Cry to the moon and moan Rise against or live in peace One or the other No in between Can not live For no other In between Rise against or live in pieces One or the other No one in between Can not live For no other Those who from the heavens came Never surrender Preserve the pride The dream is real Stand tall for your beliefs Fight for freedom Fight for humanity Words of wisdom Something to believe Is it for a good cause or is it all just lies There will be blood Anguish and agony But you will surrender You will stand free Rise against or live in peace One or the other No in between Can not live For no other In between Rise against or live in pieces One or the other No one in between Can not live For no other Those who from the heavens came Never surrender Keep your hope The dream is real Stand tall for your beliefs Fight for me Fight for humanity

NIGHTMARE ABDUCTION (M. Edvardsson) As I open my eyes I see them standing there Is this a dream, am I dying? They've taken me away I cannot breath I'm still awake but I cannot feel They are coming for me at night I'm not sure if I'm dreaming I want to wake up Because it hurts too much Floating above the bed Slowly rotating I'm open, they are inside Probes inserted, alien fluid injections It burns, my veins are expanding I'm about to burst They are coming for me at night I'm not sure if I'm dreaming I want to wake up Because it hurts too much Fuck! I rip their veins Spine pulled out through their back I'm exploding with hate Cracked skulls, separated limbs I'm strong, I'm the beast they cannot contain Awaken, looking at my scars They hurt and I shiver from cold Something was taken from me I can feel it's missing inside It burns They are coming for me at night I'm not sure if I'm dreaming I want to wake up Because it hurts too much

I Am The One 03:45
I AM THE ONE (M. Edvardsson) Human ashes and body parts Walking through the remains Broken bones and piles of corpses The feces and the stench The sun is frying bodies Stripping bones free from flesh Violence, foul display Separated human limbs I am the one Conqueror of the earth You all will die Death, bringer of the hate Some buried alive screaming until their end No one can hear their cry for help Until they die they will suffocate No one cares, they were killed with pure hate I am the one Conqueror of the earth You all will die Death, bringer of the hate Desecrated molested sacrilege with sin Angel of death hollow absent of soul Superior to mankind, spreading their hate Weapons of anger, fire them through the burning gate I am the one Conqueror of the earth You all will die Death, bringer of the hate

SORGESTJƒRNA (M. Edvardsson) Dˆd och begraven gˆr ditt ˆde till lags Dˆmd till evig vila Allt hopp har passerat fˆrbi Din sorgetyngda sj‰l ‰r fri Sakta gˆr ditt liv sorti Sorgestj‰rna fˆr all tid Ej vaken, ej i drˆmmars land Ej vid liv, heller ej i mˆrkrets famn Allt hopp har passerat fˆrbi Din sorgetyngda sj‰l ‰r fri Sakta gˆr ditt liv sorti Sorgestj‰rna fˆr all tid Skymning, ett stilla ljus Du vandrar mot ditt slut Allt hopp har passerat fˆrbi Din sorgetyngda sj‰l ‰r fri Sakta gˆr ditt liv sorti Sorgestj‰rna fˆr all tid Du landar tungt i sakta mak En sista gÂng, ditt sista andetag Allt hopp har passerat fˆrbi Din sorgetyngda sj‰l ‰r fri Sakta gˆr ditt liv sorti Sorgestj‰rna fˆr all tid

about

Souldrainer Sweden

Never imitating, but building upon the bricks laid by bands like Hypocrisy, Pain, Amon Amarth, Rammstein and Samael, Souldrainer is the representation of the next breed of melodic death metal. With thick layered rhythm guitars, atmospheric angel choirs, strings ensembles and ripping vocals, Souldrainer creates a distinguished harmonic aggression that hits you harder than a brick-wall-in-your-face. ... more
