01. In The Name Of The Father And The Gun

See them rule these streets at night
Selling souls and dealing highs
Running with their smoking guns
Talking tough of damage done
Revolution in their minds
Only way they know is crime
Killing children with their fix
While they wear a crucifix

They are the voice
There is no choice
In the name of the father and the gun

Cities held by strangle hold
How to free them no one knows
There is no near end in sight
Those who try just lose the fight
Bonded by their colors worn
A violent way of life is born
Everyone's your enemy
Addiction is pure slavery

Death on our streets
But no one speaks
In the name of the father and the gun

[Chorus:]
In the name of the father
In the name of all that's wrong
All's said and done
In the name of the gun
In the eyes of a guilty man
His work is done

Now there's nowhere safe around
From the slums to chinatown
Home's become a living hell
Take me to the wishing well
Get me off these streets of fear
Someone get me out of here
Turn my head and look away
Free me from the endless shame

Take me away
I will not pray
In the name of the father, and the gun...

[Chorus]

02. Into The Asylum

Welcome to this crazy world
Can't you see what it's done to me
Losing touch and I've lost control
Things ain't what they seem to be
I know you see
It's my reality
I'm lost in pain
I'll never be the same
What's the use of screaming
No one hears you shout
No one gives a damn
What it's all about

[Chorus:]
They're taking me to the asylum
Come along for the ride
I can hear voices calling
Get them out of my mind

Look at those who make the rules
Trying to tell me what to say
Living in a world of fools
Heading for the judgement day
No light no sound
There's blindness all around
No love no life
It seems like suicide
They won't listen to me
Can't you hear the voice
God I must be dreaming
Someone stop the noise

[Chorus]

Now my mind is not my own
There's no chance to get it free
These four walls are now my home
No one sees the things I see
What's the use of screaming
No one hears you shout
No one gives a fucking damn
What it's all about

[Chorus]

They're taking me to the asylum
Come along for the ride
I can hear voices calling
Get them out of my mind
They're taking me to the asylum
Come along for the ride

03. Greed Machine

It's pure obsession
That's in your eyes
Some call it dangerous
I call it a crime
You love your money
Say it loves you too
You think it's the only thing
That shows you gratitude
I can't believe how you live
You got nothing to give

[Chorus:]
It's all part of the greed machine
Make your mark on the
Greed machine
Cut out the heart of the
Greed machine

Stare in your mirror
And tell me what you see
Is that a vision
Or our society
Now you have to face it
And why'd you have to lie
Put the poor back on the streets
And leave them here to die
You can't afford the price you'll pay
Your soul stripped away

[Chorus]

Now you're dying
Why should people care
They're all just trying
To get their rightful share
We have no pity
See they have it all their way
No one to grieve for them
On their judgement day
You have to face all your sins
Your hell now begins

[Chorus]

04. Too Far Gone

One foot standing in the grave
One more shot is all you need you say
Poison running through your veins
That dirty needle driving you insane

Addiction hides you from the truth
Can't you see the things it
makes you do
No one wants to see your face
Now live in shame with your cold disgrace

Falling to the ground
screaming without a sound
Fading into black
Praying you come back

[Chorus:]
Can't you see
That you're dancing on the edge
Once you're lucky, twice you die
But you're too far gone
You need another rush
Like a bullet in the head
You once were lucky,
Now you're dead
And you're too far gone

Caught up in your world of pain
All you want is to be high again
Speeding to your last dead end
You never listened to a word I said

Falling to the ground
Screaming without a sound
Fading into black
Praying you come back

[Chorus]

05. Curiosity Kills

Troubled man on your own
Work your fingers to the bone
Looking for another way
To free yourself
And break the chain
Persuasion always leads you to
the edge
Gonna lose your head

Take the chance and break the vow
Money makes this world go 'round
Steal your way with greedy eyes
No one sees
And no one's wise
Seduction comes in many wicked ways
But everybody pays

[Chorus:]
Curiosity kills
Come and play with fire
Curiosity kills
Maybe you'll get burned
Curiosity kills
Maybe you'll find out what you're
Missing
Curiosity kills
Dying ain't no way of living

Shattered by your desperate fight
Obsession is a way of life
Now your world comes down on you
The blame is yours
Face the truth
Temptation gets the best of any man
Now you understand

[Chorus]

06. Suicide City

Let the night begin
Come and take my hand
Won't you walk with me
To the promised land
Bring your dreams along
And anything that you desire
Sometimes what we want
Only throws us in the fire

You walk the streets
No one knows your name
All the people stare
But they don't share your pain
Waiting for tomorrow
Living each day as your last
Numb to all the sorrow
In the nightmare of your past

[Chorus:]
Someone gets me out of here
Suicide City
I can't take this anymore
Suicide City
I don't want to die alone
Suicide City
Someone please...help me

When you pray tonight
Please say one for me
Don't let these city lights
Steal my soul without a fight
Living emptyhanded
No one's as they seem to be
Looking at the ashes
Of what were once such sweet
Dreams

[Chorus]

07. The Enemy Within

Look at the way you live
Your back's against the wall
Just like a fugitive

That's running from the law
See your reflection
See the window to the soul
It brings the darkest fears
A loss of all control
I believe that it's a murder of the mind
You can't come back once you've crossed that line
What kind of life is this when all you know is pain
No one left to leave you, no one knows your name

No one can ever know
The evil nature in our hearts
It's just like wildfire
Once it starts it never stops
Never trust your senses
Never trust the man in black
His empty promises
Lead you down a broken path
Take a look at what your world has become
There's no way to right the damage that's been done
What kind of life is this when all you know is pain
No one left to leave you, no one knows your name

[Chorus:]
We all fight the enemy within
It's the fight you can never win
We all fight the enemy within
It's a fight until the bitter end

Now you can't understand
What's happened to your life
You're left there standing still
While others pass you by
You slowly slip away
On alcohol and pills
Just a wasted man
Living life that kills

[Chorus]

08. Nobody's Child

I know you're alone again
And it's hard to face the day
And I know that I can't help you
Change your ways
Now there's nothing left
But it seems I can forget
How we left it slip away so easily

Now the years can't take away
All these broken memories
And the promises we tried
So hard to keep
It gets harder every night
Now you're so far out of sight
I'm looking for a miracle to bring you home

[Chorus:]
Nobody's child
Find your way back home tonight
All is forgiven
An all is right

You can't run forever
Open up your eyes and see
It's never over, never over

Nobody's child
Come back to me

[Chorus]

09. Silence Is A Lie

You're a silent witness
Till the end of time
Never saying what you saw
Still haunts your mind
What we leave behind
Never fades away
You're the one who keeps hiding the truth
You're a lie

Looking for deliverance
But you can't escape
Never placing any guilt
On the one to blame
I can see the pain within your eyes
You're just running
And going insane
You're a lie
Don't you see
That your hands will be stained
You're a lie

[Chorus:]
You can't release the truth
Your silence is a lie
It's locked inside of you
Your silence is a lie
You're losing sanity
'Cause silence is a lie
Stay blind to what you see
And silence is a lie

Broken alibis
And you still forget
Devil in disguise
Says your soul is kept
You're just running
And going insane
You're a lie
Don't you see
That your hands have been stained
You're a lie

[Chorus]

You can't release the truth
Your silence is a lie
It's locked inside of you
Your silence is a lie
You're losing sanity
'Cause silence is a lie
Stay blind to what you see
And silence is a lie
