Kreator - To The Afterborn Lyrics






This time, this age
This youth, in rage
Enslaved for life
A fire burns in paradise

Tyrant savior they call out
To you like Babylon's great whore
As in darkness they are dying
In this cold and senseless gore
And the lamb reject reality forever
Use perception to ignore, forever ignore

Till all misery of life fades away
With all of its horror and deeds inhumane
Where leaders of men have ruled,
Lead our souls forever astray
When all of these nightmares
Have come to an end
To hell the crucified will descend
Will those who live on after our end
Worship the crosses again,
Worship the crosses again?

Tyrant saviour they are sinking
I can feel their auras dream
Mourning scenes a burning paradise
For centuries they will scream
A kaleidoscope of echoes I am hearing
Black enormous mighty roam a nighty roar

Till all misery of life fades away
With all o f its horror and deeds inhumane
Where leaders of men have ruled,
Lead our souls forever astray
When all of these nightmares
Have come to an end
To hell the crucified will descend
Will those who live on after our end
Worship the crosses again,
Worship the crosses again?

Life is filled with nothing
But a vacuum deep inside
From one generation to the next
They spread the oldest lie
Pure depression's breaking out
A youth that's doomed to die
Beneath the surface anger lives
That nothing can disguise
No perspective for the lost,
Nothing's left to loose
Armies of the underground
With powers to refuse
Choose to follow poisoners
An omnipresent pest
You'll never be different than the rest

This is a warning to the afterborn
This is a warning to the afterborn
This is a warning to the afterborn
This is a warning to the afterborn

To the afterborn
To the afterborn

Final warning to the afterborn

To the afterborn
To the afterborn

Will the ones who live after our end
Worship the goddamn cross again?

Kreator To The Afterborn Comments
  1. K.... M....

    Can't believe this album is over ten years old.

  2. M.... ....

    Oh yeah, 3:20 and the rest of it send chills down my spine.
    I never give this song enough love, just about last night,
    I listened to this song again. And guess what?
    My lovely neighbor come to visit my house

  3. M.... K....

    3:20 Is why I came here

    M.... K....

    Marat Karimov EXACTLY

  4. m.... s....

    Perfection iN message deliverance.

  5. d.... m....

    sounds like endorama combined with enemy of god

  6. r.... a....

    Kreator: the Best fuel to mind for war in streets against nazis, cops, christians

  7. A.... s....

    Nigga stivia

  8. N.... H....

    I like this song, the Iron Maiden influence is STRONG in their riff work.

    N.... H....

    Nihilist Hedon exactly u rule for bringing that up same for overkill they also have deep iron maiden roots

  9. T.... ....

    Worship the goddamn cross again?

  10. T.... ....

    @thychaos "Standard Thrash lyrics" doesn't mean they're not awesome. Thrash Metal is AWESOME and       Kreator's lyrics are above standard in my opinion. This is one of my favourite songs of theirs \m/

    T.... ....

    here are some lyrics i find impressive:

    "Atop the shameless tower
    With wings outstretched
    An apprehensive shadow is cast over all
    Drain us of our divinity
    And leave us dry amongst the dirt of men"

    THAT is good lyricism. its poetic, its ambiguous, the words paint a powerful picture without beating you over the head with an overly obvious message. Kreator's lyrics dont make any clever observations, they dont have any clever wordplay, they dont evoke any sort of poetic awe (in me at least). theyre just straightforward and to the point. they have the finesse and subtlety of a jackhammer. which is fine, this is thrash, i expect this. but the lyrics, to me, are not impressive at all. they are standard thrash fare.

    T.... ....

    @thychaos
    I mean, you're right. We're just sharing opinions. So your opinion can't be right or wrong, and neither can mine. There's no point in arguing, there's no scientific fact that states that Kreators lyrics are standard or not. You can't prove your point, I can't prove mine. Opinion, opinion, opinion. Yet I'm the stupid idiot? And those don't sound like the words of a respectful Kreator fan but *none of my business, so...*

    T.... ....

    You clearly just appreciate (or don't) the lyrics in a different way than I do.

    T.... ....

    "Yet I'm the stupid idiot?"

    yeah, you are. i was pretty patient with you up until that last comment of yours where you quote me and then imply i dont like Kreator again, constantly putting words in my mouth and making me repeat myself over and over. cant blame me for getting frustrated.

    T.... ....

    @thychaos
    We're literally arguing over opinions, you moronic turd. We're neither right nor wrong, and I'm frustrated as well, seeing as you're ignoring the meaning of Kreator's lyrics and labelling them all as typical. That's literally just how German thrash metal is. Maybe it's typical, maybe it's not. Maybe you're a pretentious shit, maybe not. But in the end, in my opinion, I'm right, and in your opinion, you're right. So do yourself a favor and let's cut the shit, aight? Let's both be right.

  11. M.... T....

    Love it

  12. R.... ....

    Still playing this... because its THIS TIME, THIS AGE, THIS YOUTH IN RAGE.... I AM THE ENEMY OF GOD, WITH ALL THE HORDES OF CHAOS HAILIING THE PHANTOM ANTICHRIST!
    2013!!!

  13. s.... ....

    Thanks to Sami!

  14. T.... ....

    God is understatement^^

  15. p.... ....

    Maybe. It doesn't matter. But if all people know what the cross is really is I wouldn't have to work for 10 hours a day to survive...

  16. t.... ....

    oops, got you mixed up with the other guy. anyways, regardless of whether people know these things or not, the lyrics are still something ive heard hundreds of times from other bands, which makes them standard.

  17. p.... ....

    Firstly: I didn't say that (I don't even know 'santiagometalmilitia'). Secondly: the transmission, the message of this lyrics is not a thing that you can measure by 'technical' style of writing cause the dose of truth that this text contains is not generally known by majority or even few percent of people. See what I mean ? :D Sry for bad english (I am from PL)

  18. t.... ....

    thats not the point, you were saying how the lyrics were so awesome when really theyre just standard thrash lyrics. the lyrics fit the music but theyre still nothing special. and i know thats from a different album, its just one example of a bad lyric.

  19. p.... ....

    You're talking about different song on different album heheh, of course this is not a deep poetry but how can you get to the minds of youth to share with them some true? I'm shure not by deep poetry.. And of course Mille is not a god.

  20. t.... ....

    what do you mean why, theyre nothing special, its not like super deep poetry or anything, its just standard thrash metal lyrics. theyre even pretty bad sometimes. "i want to kill you, torture as you die" i lol'd when i heard that. and mille is not a god.

  21. t.... ....

    @santiagometalmilitia umm, the lyrics are actually pretty amateur.

  22. s.... ....

    @darkevilwolf
    Y al criminal gobierno de Colombia. Saludos desde Ecuador

  23. M.... ....

    this song was boring

    M.... ....

    MrHickies Gtfo

  24. S.... H....

    @Metalhead7007 vllt ein vorbild für diesen song?

  25. J.... M....

    0:16 to 0:33 looks like Poison by Alice cooper O.O

  26. m.... ....

    brillant

  27. K.... ....

    @santiagometalmilitia
    What? a God? Mille is above all that!

  28. P.... A....

    @MrHamsi y.. u didn't get the point

  29. M.... ....

    @HammerFall1996
    there are way more words than 'melodic' or 'heavy' to describe a band (besides every metal band is kinda heavy per definition). it's like if i'd say: 'listen to slayer if you wanna hear drums'.

  30. P.... A....

    Fast and melodic? Sonata arctica. Fast melodic and heavy? Children of bodom

  31. M.... A....

    Kreator puts so much epic moments in their songs...

  32. q.... ....

    @metalthunder96 Oh come on man, every song on this album was awesome!

  33. j.... ....

    @XXhunterXXvc thats matter of opinion, i personally hate these melodic and epic parts, so there are only some good tracks in their new stuff for me, the rest is fuckin old school thrash! long live Kreator!!!

  34. M.... M....

    @xXGroviabyXx Okay

  35. G.... S....

    @MrNevaBear fuck yeah

  36. B.... ....

    @BrandonSiefert The reason is: Kreator is fucking epic!!!!!

  37. R.... M....

    dude, this song makes me wanna crawl the fucking walls and going fucking insane while screaming the damn lyrics o.o you better fucking hail kreator!

    R.... M....

    Yeah, even I agree with you 7 years later, I do agree with you. My favorite song since the album came out fr. Warcurse is pretty close tho 👌

  38. J.... R....

    first kreator whas brutal thrash metal

  39. x.... ....

    best german stuff! really amazing chorus, and ho melodic it is. Awesome lyrics too! Fucking Great!

  40. 3.... ....

    @TheLuckyGrease I like primal fear they are also from germany

  41. T.... ....

    KREATOR is the best German Band ever, better than Rammstein or fucking Scorpions...

  42. w.... ....

  43. P.... H....
