The songs are previously unreleased, though tracks 5, 10 & 14 are only different versions played or recorded differently, because Malefic wasn't satisfied with how they turned out originally.
Guest appearances:
Marissa Nadler - vocals on track 1 & 7

2. Nightmares at Dawn
Looking back to your traumatic time
And no one cares to solve the crime
Nothing beyond the flesh I disposed
No soul to linger after the coffin is closed.
Give back all the pain they gave
Leave them to rot in an open grave
Drain the sunrise, a sunrise full of lies
The
demons will silence your cries
Nightmares at dawn...
4. Degenerate Uprising
waste of flesh, given away to anyone who'll destroy it. you can't coexist with people who want to kill you. Mix pity and freedom, enthrone and praise...what once was trash. there's a degenerate uprising for those who never learn, freedom is free for those who never earn. as we learn nothing, we're easier to control, lie to and manipulate, political correctness, political correct-less, hope and ignorance, new world order falls into place, we'll blame traitors of the human race
5. The Prison of Mirrors 2007
The prison of mirrors... we can't see,
Yet trapped we are... by its reflection,
It sees all fear and watches our downfall,
It will rip all lies and pride from the soul.
You are all... all that you hate,
Force fed memories, suffer humiliation,
Victim of darkness, of the inner hidden kind,
I am the eye within the gleam,
Shatter before a mirror that stares into (a shallow soul).
Poison yourself... revel in waste,
Poison yourself, in the name of evil... destroy yourself.
I will always be the reason to hate your self,
Mirrors... will oppress your mind,
And follow all... all that you hide,
Blind, step inside a subconscious warfare to guide the oblivious,
Mirrors of torture, unforgiving expose your sins,
Your suicide by the mirror's shattered blade.
6. Losing Hand/Redemption
Empty hand, a losing hand... with no place on this earth
Is redemption being released from it?
Life with no beginning, no ending
Where does it end?
A failure- immortal- curse
Empty soul, drained.
With nothing put into it.
No closure, no redemption beyond tomorrow
And so it seemed there was no place to be redeemed.
Wasting my breath, living for death
Nothing in the end, there'll be nothing left.
A failure- immortal- curse.
8. Merciless Reflection
Surveillance mirrors, smashing all the lies
Haunt with reflection till it all dies
Reveal yourself or be revealed
You'd rather lose a limb
Merciless reflection tortures throughout (I can see a soul filled with doubt)
Life's rejection, you're reduced to nothing.
9. A National Acrobat (Black Sabbath cover)
I am the world that hides the universal secret of all time
Destruction of the empty spaces is my one and only crime
I've lived a thousand times
I found out what it means to be believed
The thoughts and images
The unborn child that never was conceived
When little worlds collide I'm trapped inside my embryonic cell
And flashing memories are cast into a neverending well
The name that scorns the face
The child that never see the cause of man
The deathly darkness that
Belies the fate of those who never ran
Well I know it's hard for you to know the reason why
And I know you'll understand more when it's time to die
Don't believe the life you have will be your only one
You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on
Love has given life to you and now it's your concern
Unseen eye of inner life will make your soul return
Still I look but not to touch the seeds of life are sown
Curtain of the future falls, the secret stays unknown
Just remember love is life and hate is living death
Treat your life for what it's worth and live for every breath
Looking back I've lived and learned but now I'm wondering
Here I wait and only guess what this next life will bring
10. Screaming at Forgotten Fears 2007
A sinister telepathy is screaming at forgotten fears
An exit made of your self-destruction, may your reflection guide the blade.
In your lost code of self knowledge, a mere entrance for evil to enter
The venom is hidden and the venom wears a mask (I serve myself upon the wings of pain's affliction, unto thee). Disconnect from my state of being (and
without a trace) it was my soul that murdered yours, that murdered yours.
11. Society Wants to Die
Acting out your disease
Acting out your trauma
The world wasn't there...
to watch your drama
Your words have lost meaning
Lost until the mirror brought them back,
(reflecting) with more ugliness than before
Stare into yourself, the human whore.
13. Enthroned Uselessness
Scars aren't enough anymore
They'll only tell tales of confusion and shame
I'd want to make you suffer through life
With only yourself to blame
Cast out from society, you're a dead weight to yourself
Behind an obsolete cause... without any affect
Profess to me something you don't even understand
And I'll tell you your waste of life was by your own hand
Your self pity is not extreme, it is not a threat
You'll continue to live a lie, like a coward and filled with regret
Razors are buried, now there's no way of crying
You must not live for dying.
