open graves
open graves

enter sandman
creeping death
harvester of sorrow
fade to black
sad but true
master of puppets
seek and destroy
for whom the bell tolls
one
whiplash
last caress
am i evil ? / battery
enter sandman
say your prayers little one
don't forget, my son
to include everyone

tuck you in, warm within
keep you free from sin
till the sandman he comes

sleep with one eye open
gripping your pillow tight

exit light
enter night
take my hand
off to never never land

something's wrong, shut the light
heavy thoughts tonight
and they aren't of snow white

dreams of war, dreams of liars
dreams of dragon's fire
and of things that will bite

sleep with one eye open
gripping your pillow tight

exit light
enter night
take my hand
off to never never land

now i lay me down to sleep
pray the lord my soul to keep
if i die before i wake
pray the lord my soul to take

hush little baby, don't say a word
and never mind that noise you heard
it's just the beast under your bed,
in your closet, in your head

exit light
enter night
grain of sand

exit light
enter night
take my hand
we're off to never never land

creeping death
slaves
hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh
heed
to his every word, live in fear
faith
of the unknown one, the deliverer
wait
something must be done, four hundred years

so let it be written
so let it be done
i'm sent here by the chosen one
so let it be written
so let it be done
to kill the first born pharaoh son
i'm creeping death

now
let my people go, land of goshen
go
i will be with thee, bush of fire
blood
running red and strong, down the nil
plague
darkness three days long, hail to fire

so let it be written
so let it be done
i'm sent here by the chosen one
so let it be written
so let it be done
to kill the first born pharaoh son
i'm creeping death

die by my hand
i creep across the land
killing first born man
die by my hand
i creep across the land
killing first born man
i
rule the midnight air the destroyer
born
i shall soon be there, deadly mass
i
creep the steps and flood final darkness
blood
lambs blood painted door, i shall pass

so let it be written
so let it be done
i'm sent here by the chosen one
so let it be written
so let it be done
to kill the first born pharaoh son
i'm creeping death

harvester of sorrow
my life suffocates
planting seeds of hate
i've loved, turned to hate
trapped far beyond my fate

i give
you take
this life that i forsake
been cheated of my youth
you turned this lie to truth

anger
misery
you'll suffer unto me

harvester of sorrow
language of the mad
harvester of sorrow

pure black looking clear
my work is done soon here
try getting back to me
get back which used to be

drink up
shoot in
let the beatings begin
distributor of pain
your loss becomes my gain

anger
misery
you'll suffer unto me

harvester of sorrow
language of the mad
harvester of sorrow

all have said their prayers
invade their nightmares
see into my eyes
you'll find where murder lies

infanticide

harvester of sorrow
language of the mad
harvester of sorrow
language of the mad
harvester of sorrow

fade to black
life it seems, will fade away
drifting further every day
getting lost within myself
nothing matters no one else
i have lost the will to live
simply nothing more to give
there is nothing more for me
need the end to set me free

things are not what they used to be
missing one inside of me
deathly lost, this can't be real
cannot stand this hell i feel
emptiness is filing me
to the point of agony
growing darkness taking dawn
i was me, but now he's gone

no one but me can save myself, but it to late
now i can't think, think why i should even try

yesterday seems as though it never existed
death greets me warm, now i will just say good-bye

sad but true
hey
i'm your life
i'm the one who takes you there
hey
i'm your life
i'm the one who cares
they
they betray
i'm your only true friend now
they
they'll betray
i'm forever there

i'm your dream, make you real
i'm your eyes when you must steal
i'm your pain when you can't feel
sad but true

i'm your dream, mind astray
i'm your eyes while you're away
i'm your pain while you repay
you know it's sad but true

you
you're my mask
you're my cover, my shelter
you
you're my mask
you're the one who's blamed
do
do my work
do my dirty work, scapegoat
do
do my deeds
for you're the one who's shamed

i'm your dream, make you real
i'm your eyes when you must steal
i'm your pain when you can't feel
sad but true

i'm your dream, mind astray
i'm your eyes while you're away
i'm your pain while you repay
you know it's sad but true

hate
i'm your hate
i'm your hate when you want love
pay
pay the price
pay, for nothing's fair
hey
i'm your life
i'm the one who took you here
hey
i'm your life
and i no longer care

i'm your dream, make you real
i'm your eyes when you must steal
i'm your pain when you can't feel
sad but true

i'm your truth, telling lies
i'm your reasoned alibis
i'm inside open your eyes
i'm you

sad but true

master of puppets
end of passion play, crumbling away
i'm your source of self-destruction
veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
leading on your deaths construction
taste me you will see
more is all you need
you're dedicated to
how i'm killing you

come crawling faster
obey your master
your life burns faster
obey your master
master

master of puppets i'm pulling your strings
twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
blinded by me, you can't see a thing
just call my name, `cause i'll hear you scream
master
master
just call my ame, `cause i'll hear you scream
master
master

needlework the way, never you betray
life of death becoming clearer
pain monopoly, ritual misery
chop your breakfast on a mirror
taste me you will see
more is all you need
you're dedicated to
how i'm killing you

come crawling faster
obey your master
your life burns faster
obey your master
master

master of puppets i'm pulling your strings
twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
blinded by me, you can't see a thing
just call my name, `cause i'll hear you scream

just call my ame, `cause i'll hear you scream
master
master

master, master, where's the dreams that i've been after?
master, master, you promised only lies
laughter, laughter, all i hear and see is laughter
laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries

hell is worth all that, natural habitat
just a rhyme without a reason
neverending maze, drift on numbered days
now your life is out of season
i will occupy
i will help you die
i will run through you
now i rule you too

come crawling faster
obey your master
your life burns faster
obey your master
master

master of puppets i'm pulling your strings
twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
blinded by me, you can't see a thing
just call my name, `cause i'll hear you scream

just call my ame, `cause i'll hear you scream

seek and destroy
we are scanning the scene
in the city tonight
we are looking for you
to start up a fight
there is an evil feeling
in our brains
but it is nothing new
you know it drives us insane

running,
on our way
hiding,
you will pay
dying,
one thousand deaths
running,
on our way
hiding,
you will pay
dying,
one thousand deaths
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy

there is no escape
and that is for sure
this is the end we won't take any more
say goodbye
to the world you live in
you have always been taking
but now you're giving

running,
on our way
hiding,
you will pay
dying,
one thousand deaths
running,
on our way
hiding,
you will pay
dying,
one thousand deaths
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy

our brains are on fire
with the feeling to kill
and it will not go away
until our dreams are fulfilled
there is only one thing
on our minds
don't try running away
`cause you're the one we will find

running,
on our way
hiding,
you will pay
dying,
one thousand deaths
running,
on our way
hiding,
you will pay
dying,
one thousand deaths
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy
searching,
seek and destroy

for whom the bell tolls
make his fight on the hill in the early day
constant chill deep inside
shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
on the fight, for they are right, yes, by who's to say?
for a hill men would kill, why? they do not know
suffered wounds test there their pride
men of five, still alive through the raging glow
gone insane from the pain that they surely know

for whom the bell tolls
time marches on
for whom the bell tolls

take a look to the sky just before you die
it is the last time you will
blackened roar massive roar fills the crumbling sky
shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
stranger now, are his eyes, to this mystery
he hears the silence so loud
crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
now the will see what will be, blinded eyes to see

for whom the bell tolls
time marches on
for whom the bell tolls

one
i can't remember anything
can't tell if this is true or dream
deep down inside i feel to scream
this terrible silence stops me

now that the war is through with me
i'm waking up i can not see
that there is not much left of me
nothing is real but pain now

hold my breath as i wish for death
oh please god,wake me

back in the womb its much too real
in pumps life that i must feel
but can't look forward to reveal
look to the time when i'll live

fed through the tube that sticks in me
just like a wartime novelty
tied to machines that make me be
cut this life off from me

hold my breath as i wish for death
oh please god,wake me

now the world is gone i'm just one
oh god,help me hold my breath as i wish for death
oh please god help me

darkness imprisoning me
all that i see
absolute horror
i cannot live
i cannot die
body my holding cell

landmine has taken my sight
taken my speech
taken my hearing
taken my arms
taken my legs
taken my soul
left me with life in hell
				
top

whiplash
late at night all systems go
you have come to see the show
we do our best you're the rest
you make it real you know
there is a feeling deep inside
that drives you fuckin' mad
a feeling of a hammerhead
you need it oh so bad

adrenalin starts to flow
you're thrashing all around
acting like a maniac
whiplash

bang your head against the stage
like you never did before
make it ring make it bleed
make it really sore
in a frenzied madness
with your leather and your spikes
heads are bobbing all around
it is hot as hell tonight

adrenalin starts to flow
you're thrashing all around
acting like a maniac
whiplash

here on the stage the marshall noise
is piercing through your ears
it kicks your ass kick your face
exploding feeling nears
now is the time to let it rip
to let it fuckin' loose
we are gathered here to maim and kill
cause this is what we choose

adrenalin starts to flow
you're thrashing all around
acting like a maniac
whiplash

the show is through the metal is gone
it is time to hit the road
another town another gig
again we will explode
hotel rooms and motorways
life out here is raw
but we will never stop
we will never quit
cause we are metallica

adrenalin starts to flow
you're thrashing all around
acting like a maniac
whiplash

last caress

the misfits's song

i got something to say
i killed your baby today
it doesn't matter much to me
as long as it's dead

well, i got something to say
i raped your mother today
and it doesn't matter much to me
as long as she's spread

sweet lovely death
i'm waiting for your breath
come sweet death, one last caress

sweet lovely death
i'm waiting for your breath
come sweet death, one last caress

am i evil ? / battery
am i evil ?

diamond head's song

my mother was a witch, she was burned alive
thankless little bitch, for the tears i cried
take her down now, don't want to see her face
all blistered and burnt, can't hide my disgrace

twenty seven, everyone was nice
gotta see 'em, make 'em pay the price
see their bodies out on the ice
take my time

am i evil?
yes i am
am i evil?
i am man
yes i am

as i watched my mother die, i lost my head
revenge now i sought, to break with my bread
takin' no chances, you come with me
i'll split you to the bone, help set you free

twenty seven, everyone was nice
gotta see 'em, make 'em pay the price
see their bodies out on the ice
take my time

am i evil?
yes i am
am i evil?
i am man
yes i am

on with the action now, i'll strip your pride
i'll spread your blood around, i'll see you ride
your face is scarred with steel, wounds deep and neat
like a double dozen before ya, smells so sweet

am i evil?
yes i am
am i evil?
i am man

i'll make my residence, i'll watch your fire
you can come with me, sweet desire
my face is long forgot, my face not my own
sweet and timely whore, take me home

am i evil?
yes i am
am i evil?
i am man

my soul is longing for, await my heir
sent to avenge my mother, sleep myself
my face is long forgot, my face not my own
sweet and timely whore, take me home

am i evil?
yes i am
am i evil?
i am man

am i evil?
yes i fucking am
am i evil?
i am man, yeah!
					
battery
lashing out the action, returning the reaction
weak are ripped and torn away
hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
battery is here to stay

smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the battery
pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the battery

cannot kill the family
battery is found in me

battery

crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers
never ending potency
hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
breeding on insanity

smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the battery
pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the battery

cannot kill the family
battery is found in me

battery

circle of destruction, hammer comes crushing
powerhouse of energy
whipping up a fury, dominating flurry
we create the battery

smashing through the boundaries
lunacy has found me
cannot stop the battery
pounding out aggression
turns into obsession
cannot kill the battery

cannot kill the family
battery is found in me

battery
