The Secrecies of Horror (04:55)
Pestilence • Testimony of the Ancients
["An unknown dimension revealed to man"]

Within the realms unseen
The missing have returned
Deformed beyond recognition
Remains of bodies burned

When all is lost
Swallowed by depths of darkness
The gates to the kingdom of horrors
You've passed, now dwell in madness

Flames of eternity
Burn in immortality
Skin melts so horribly
Revealed surreality

Breathing blackened air
Within the walls of gore
Behold the view of disgust
The secrecies of horror

Eyes of fear, torture is near
Tearful cries, you hear

Discovering beyond death
Secrets you will find
The horror you'll meet
Will capture your mind

Secrecies of horror
Secrecies of horror

Twisted Truth (04:02)
Pestilence • Testimony of the Ancients
["Views from a twisted mind"]

A god before god
Summon the demons to enter your body
Ceremonies to attain the blessing
A faith in secrecy
No respect for the weak
The victim of hypocrisy
The philosophy chosen to live by
Has brought you your mortality

A reason to die
No remission of sins commited
When you were fighting the lie

Actions begged to be killed
A sacrifice chosen
Laughter at the sight of blood
That has spilled
Respond to the inclination within
A desire fulfilled
Pride, for the slaughter is done
While being thrilled
Praise who guards your soul
And for whom you have killed

Fools are the followers of masters they deify
Conversion does not save you from death, die

Twisted truth
Twisted truth

A juvenile mind mislead
In the name of your lord you lived
Serving, your death
A life full of sin, good is evil
Believing the unholy words you read
Commandmends are there to break them
Live by your own rules instead
Proclaim the salvation you met

Land of Tears (04:46)
Pestilence • Testimony of the Ancients
["Fear of all evil that controls mankind"]

Dark sides of life
Unspoken by those in search of the light
Darkness they will find
Rejecting all evil, taken possession of mankind

Fighting what can't be fought
Minds penetrated, souls will be taken
Days turn into night
Bodies are falling, hear death calling

Throughout the centuries
Attempts for protection, prayers, religion
Signs make you aware
Of it's mass domination, a divine dispensation

Land of tears

Indulge in the tempation
Your mind will show you the way
Ghosts of the damned will guard you
In this journey into decay

Land of tears
Land of tears

Testimony (03:50)
Pestilence • Testimony of the Ancients
["Seeking life-answers by using dark powers"]

The gates to my subconscious, open wide
Hear and remember, the incantations I recite
Reveal the power, no longer known by man
Possess, before the ancients rule the earth once again

Beneath the seas and skies of the human mind
The abyss yawns wide before me
Uncertain what truth of lies I will find
Appear and share my wisdom, for I know thee

Descend into the foul places of death
I fear for my flesh, for I have seen my epitaph
The price I pay on this lonely journey
Is softened and I hope the gods will have mercy

From a time before a time a cold voice has spoken
From a land beyond the stars I evoke thee
In exchange for wisdom, what evil have I woken
What terrible faith shall consume me?

I've seen the future
I've seen the past
I've seen the sight of whom causeth horror
I've seen my place of rest

I've travelled on spheres, I've seen things
Beyond imagination
The things I have learned are the most pure revelation
Obliterated are the lines of my life
My blood cries out as I make my last sacrifice

I cannot see, I cannot move, 'cause sight is failing me
Knowing that the beasts of the spaces claim my blood
My blood turns black but frightened I cannot be
The bargain is sealed, the price to pay is to rot

Stigmatized (05:22)
Pestilence • Testimony of the Ancients
["Branded, for making the wrong choices in life"]

Open the book of life
To die a second death
Burn in the lake of fire
Next to the false prophet
Face the thrones of judgement
Decide who lives who dies
Glorify the priests of unholyness
Bring forth your lies
Die in your sin, weakling
End in sight by his might

No power over the sacred ones
Kings of a thousand years
Heavenly fires waste those
Who failed to see or hear
The words as old as time
Written and foretold
Marked will be their bodies
Their souls they have sold

There's no mercy, save me
From this purgatory

Stigmatized
Stigmatized
