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

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

Ride the lightning |
Guilty as charged
But damn it, it ain't right
There is someone else controlling me
Death in the air
Strapped in the electric chair
This can't be happening to me
Who made you God to say
"I'll take your life from you!"
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames
Wait for the sign
To flick the switch of death
It's the beginning of the end
Sweat, chilling cold
As I watch death unfold
Consciousness my only friend
My fingers grip with fear
What I am doing here?
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames
Someone help me
Oh please God help me
They are trying to take it all away
I don't want to die
Time moving slowly
The minutes seem like hours
The final curtain call I see
How true is this?
Just get it over with
If this is true, just let it be
Wakened by the horrid cream
Freed from the frightening dream
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flames
|
|
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

The memory remains |
fortune, fame
mirror vain
gone insane
but the memory remains
heavy rings on fingers wave
another star denies the grave
see the nowhere crowd
cry the nowhere cheers of honor
like twisted vines that grow
hide and swallow mansions whole
in light of an already
faded prima donna
fortune, fame
mirror vain
gone insane...
fortune, fame
mirror vain
gone insane...
but the memory remains
heavy rings hold cigarettes
up to lips that time forgets
while the hollywood sun sets
behind your back
and can't the band play on
just listen, they play my song
ash to ash
dust to dust
fade to black
fortune, fame
mirror vain
gone insane...
fortune, fame
mirror vain
gone insane...
dance little tin goddess
"ya ya" part
drift away
fade away
little tin goddess
ash to ash
dust to dust
fade to black
fortune, fame
mirror vain
gone insane...
fortune, fame
mirror vain
gone insane...
but the memory remains
ash to ash
dust to dust
fade to black...
but the memory remains
yeah
faded prima donna yeah, yeah
(solo)
dance little tin goddess dance
"ya ya" part

Wherever I may roam |
...and the road becomes my bride
i have stripped of all but pride
so in her i do confide
and she keeps me satisfied
gives me all i need
...and with dust in throat i crave
only knowledge will i save
to the game you stay a slave
rover wanderer
nomad vagabond
call me what you will
but i'll take my time anywhere
free to speak my mind anywhere
and i'll redefine anywhere
anywhere i may roam
where i lay my head is home
...and the earth becomes my throne
i adapt to the unknown
under wandering stars i've grown
by myself but not alone
i ask no one
...and my ties are severed clean
the less i have the more i gain
off the beaten path i reign
rover wanderer
nomad vagabond
call me what you will
but i'll take my time anywhere
i'm free to speak my mind anywhere
and i'll never mind anywhere
anywhere i may roam
where i lay my head is home
but i'll take my time anywhere
free to speak my mind
and i'll take my find anywhere
anywhere i may roam
where i lay my head is home
carved upon my stone
my body lie, but still i roam
wherever i may roam

Cyanide |
sleep,
and dream of this,
death angel's kiss,
brings finalness;
don't believe it!
empty are they;
death; wont you let - me - stay?
empty they say;
death; wont you call - your - name?
ooh, call your name!
[chorus]
suicide - i've already died,
it's just the funeral i've been waiting for.
cyanide - feeling dead inside,
break this empty shell forever more.
wait, wait patiently,
your death-black wings,
unfolding, scream;
spreading for me!
empty they say,
death wont you let - me - stay?
empty they say,
death you can call - your - name?
ooh, call your name!
[chorus]
days that rain or are they tears?
that sting your concrete face for years?
crying, weeping, shedding strife,
year after year, life after life.
and arrow thrust in broken ground,
a concrete angel, never lie down.
calm anew that swallows fast,
it's peace at last, oh peace at last!
empty they say,
death; won't you let - me - stay?
empty they say,
death; let me call - your - name!
ooh, call your name!
[chorus]
forever more!
forever more!
just the funeral i've been waiting for!

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
Master
Master
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
Master
Master
Just call my ame, `cause I'll hear you scream

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

Nothing else matters |
so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters
never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words i don't just say
and nothing else matters
trust i seek and i find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but i know
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters
so close no matter how far
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but i know
never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words i don't just say
trust i seek and i find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters
never cared for what they say
never cared for games they play
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
and i know
so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
no nothing else matters

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
|
|
Hit the lights |
No life till leather
We are gonna kick some ass tonight
We got the metal madness
When our fans start screaming
It's right well alright
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
You know our fans are insane
We are gonna blow this place away
with volume higher
Than anything today the only way
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
With all our screaming
We are gonna rip right through your brain
We got the lethal power
It is causing you sweet pain Oh sweet pain
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights
