01. The Price

Music & lyrics by Destruction
Everything comes to an end, forced or by normal intend
The chapter will close anyhow, the question is what you allow!

Fight - Fight the system - You gotta keep the resistance

[Chorus:]
Sacrifice - Isolation is the price - Sacrifice
Sacrifice - Isolation is the price
Sacrifice - Is the name of the game in the end we're all the same!

Avoid the brain damage intercourse, education needs to be the source
Doubt ridden should your game, the supervision is to blame!

Fight - Fight the system - You gotta keep the resistance

[Chorus:]
Sacrifice - Isolation is the price - Sacrifice
Sacrifice - Isolation is the price
Sacrifice!

Punisher of tainted horror - A ticking time bomb to explode
Guideline of the lost, this world ain't no place of fuckin' trust!

Everything comes to an end, forced or by normal intend
The chapter will close anyhow, the question is what you allow!

[Chorus:]
Sacrifice - Isolation is the price - Sacrifice
Sacrifice - Isolation is the price
Sacrifice!

02. Hate Is My Fuel

Music & lyrics by Destruction
A poisoned culture - Based on lies, war & deceit
Slaughterhouse philosophy - Cruel butchers are hard to beat
The law of the game - Is the law of the bloody blade
Dictated by lunacy - It's the fail death serenade

[Bridge:]
War - As the essence of a painful life
Decay - The stream of death agony will ride

[Chorus:]
Hate - Hate is my fuel
The mob is just tool
Hate - Hate is my fuel
I'm the lord of misrule

Death brings us together as one - The feel to be second to none
Shameful should be the gluttonous - What makes a real genius?
Erases all the treasures - Wipes out all fame, affluence and wealth
Recognize the afterlife freedom - Won't be based on stealth

[Bridge:]
War - As the essence of a painful life
Decay - The stream of death agony will ride

[Chorus:]
Hate - Hate is my fuel
The mob is just tool
Hate - Hate is my fuel
I'm the lord of misrule

Insanity - We do rape, wreck and then - We search for an excuse
Decay - We all gonna rot, we're all the same on the final cruise
Modesty - Is so hard to find, is this a curse - Is this real?
Consistency - Is a gift of life, education is the deal

[Chorus:]
Hate - Hate is my fuel
The mob is just tool
Hate - Hate is my fuel
I'm the lord of misrule

03. Armageddonizer

Music & lyrics by Destruction
Why the hell do we kill for territory?
Does greed make us blind and brute?
Why the hell is madness mandatory?
Who is to prosecute?

Why the fuck are we killing in the name of god?
Do we have the right to decide who is to kill?
How do they make us wanna join death - Squad?
Does the cruel man machine need to thrill?

Do we need to get ruled by a tyrannical force?
Why are we to lazy to act and defy?
How can they create hate with no remorse?
Why do the faithful crucify?

[Bridge:]
We get cheated - Our minds deleted
Misguided from our leaders - Bloody mutant breeders

[Chorus:]
Armageddonizer - We're none the wiser
Armageddonizer - Death bringing colonizer

Why the hell do we kill for territory?
Does greed make us blind and brute?
Why the hell is madness mandatory?
Who is to prosecute?

Why the fuck are we killing in the name of god?
Do we have the right to decide who is to kill?
How do they make us wanna join death - Squad?
Does the cruel man machine need to thrill?

[Bridge:]
We get cheated - Our minds deleted
Misguided from our leaders - Bloody mutant breeders

[Chorus:]
Armageddonizer - We're none the wiser
Armageddonizer - Death bringing colonizer

Dancing on a razor wire,
Confused souls for hire
Spindoctors and their easy cheat,
Evil spirits raising high - An alibi to outcry
With the wrong aims and sights - Who's gonna close the lights?

Dancing on a razor wire,
Confused souls for hire
Spindoctors and their easy cheat,
This world is fucking incomplete

[Bridge:]
We get cheated - Our minds deleted
Misguided from our leaders - Bloody mutant breeders

[Chorus:]
Armageddonizer - We're none the wiser
Armageddonizer - Death bringing colonizer

04. Devil's Advocate

Music & lyrics by Destruction
I've sold your soul to the Devil - the Devil!

It's time to break out, of the daily routine
Been suffering the whole week, I need to scream!
My therapy seems weird to the one left behind
They call it noise but it cleans my mind!

[Chorus:]
Break your neck for liberty come on join the Armies of Black
It's time to end this slavery it's time for a bloody payback
Kill your frustration - Improve your awareness of life
Free your mind, join the pit - Let's fucking stage-dive!

I've sold your soul to the Devil!

This ain't a funeral just cause we are all dressed noir
This thrill of rebellion beats synthetic life by far!
The freedom music creates feels like a relieve
United by music get back your belief!

[Chorus]

I've sold your soul to the Devil!

A vicious form of expression - Brutalization of the tone
You can't kill rock n roll - Metal is the devilish clone

[Chorus]

It's time to break out, of the daily routine
Been suffering the whole week, I need to scream!
My therapy seems weird to the one left behind
They call it noise but it cleans my mind!

[Chorus]

I've sold your soul to the Devil - the Devil!
I've sold your soul to the Devil - the Devil!

05. Day Of Reckoning

Music & lyrics by Destruction
It happens again and again
Feels like a bloody time warp
A single soul on fire can burn hotter than hell
It happens again and again

[Chorus]:
Day, Day of Reckoning
‒ Time to forgive all our sins
Day, Day of Reckoning
‒ Or just a bad day where no-one wins?

I feel cursed ‒ Who took my soul
When your whole life goes to hell
A single moment can twist your fate into the obscure
You're doomed to fail

[Chorus]

Whatever can go wrong will go wrong
Murphy's Law provided madness is on
Same of bullshit, the same old song
The mystery of the moment has no pardon

Another day of chaos drives me insane
Flirting with disaster ain't a funny game
Bad energy kills ‒ Hopes, dreams, and skills!

[Chorus]

Day of Reckoning ‒ Cursed on the day that we were fucking born
Day of Reckoning ‒ Doomed to fail with the system of scorn

06. Sorcerer Of Black Magic

Music & lyrics by Destruction
On the razor's edge I kneel all this can't be real
Every soul stands for a death!
Where are my illusions all those fake conclusions
Will this now be my last breath?

Like a slow motion flick ‒ but this fear ain't a trick
My live is rushing through my eye!
Panic grabs my mind ‒ Now the daily grind
Seems unreal I can't deny!

[Bridge:]
Rich man ‒ Poor man ‒ Beggar man ‒ Thief
In the face of death ‒ They all start to believe

[Chorus:]
Sorcerer of Black Magic ‒
Preacher of an unseen god
Sorcerer of Doom ‒
Make you pray for your decay
Sorcerer of Black Magic

When time is up
‒ There's no more need for a clock
To late to fucking justify!
This fatal vortex now shows the final round
My regrets I can't deny!

I had too many challenges
‒ Broke down all the fences
When time was right I did fail!
Wealth is an earthly chance
‒ Dance the final dance
Dark forces will prevail!

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Master of Sadism King of Hedonism
On judgement day we are all the same!
Evil spirit crying all mankind is dying
No hope for the lost souls

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Sorcerer of Black Magic ‒ There's no escape
Sorcerer of Black Magic ‒ And no control
Sorcerer of Black Magic fond belief
Sorcerer of Black Magic ‒ The bell tolls

07. Misfit

Music & lyrics by Destruction
Suffering in torment, my future is black as a crow
A rotten existence, a creature with no flow

I spit on all your rules
On your blasted philosophy of life
Your faked bliss feels like a slap, a stab with a knife!
I'm maybe a creep, and a bloody sinner
Life twists & turns in this new chapter I'm a beginner

[Bridge:]
The question of my life:
How can an aimless victim of society not breed in sin

How will I survive?
How to not turn into a tool of the machinery

[Chorus:]
Misfit of madness
Misfit of sadness
Misfit of madness
Misfit

Rebellion, a cycle in the game of lies!
Even a solitary man won't let his soul demise!
It ruined all my dreams and all my hope
Guidelines are worst, worst than fucking dope!

The question of my life:
How can an aimless victim of society not breed in sin

How will I survive?
How to not turn into a tool of the machinery

[Chorus:]
Misfit of madness
Misfit of sadness
Misfit of madness
Misfit

08. The Demon Is God

Music & lyrics by Destruction
Evil Spirit - The Demon is God
Possessed and over the top
Driven by greed and insanity

[Chorus:]
The Demon is God
- The Demon is God - The Demon is God
Preacher of decline - Warlord of the rhyme
The written word - Is a weapon of cruelty
The Demon is God
- The Demon is God - The Demon is God

Killing the own blood in the name of tragedy
Lost are those who believe
Killing tradition of forming the public opinion
Creeping monotony

[Chorus:]
The Demon is God
- The Demon is God - The Demon is God
Preacher of decline - Warlord of the rhyme
The written word - Is a weapon of cruelty
The Demon is God
- The Demon is God - The Demon is God

An underrated tool - To tamper our minds
Preacher of decline - Warlord of the rhyme

Our fall - Super size intellectual minds
Misinformation - The ignorant and the smart
Linguistic monstrosity - The genesis of evil thoughts
Under false pretenses - Is how history is made of!

Preacher of decline - Warlord of the rhyme
The written word - Is a weapon of cruelty?
An underrated tool - To tamper our minds
In a world of vanity

[Chorus:]
The Demon is God
- The Demon is God - The Demon is God
Preacher of decline - Warlord of the rhyme
The written word - Is a weapon of cruelty
The Demon is God
- The Demon is God - The Demon is God
The Demon is God
The Demon - The Demon - The Demon is God

09. Church Of Disgust

Music & lyrics by Destruction
Broken as my youth
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
Justice can't cry
Tough me lies I couldn't deny

Never understood their aim & their rules
Testimony for a world full of fools,
Pushed, rejected and misunderstood
Evil twisted lonely twisted childhood!

[Bridge:]
Satan's eyes - Coming to baptize
- Christianized!

[Chorus:]
Holy father - Deliver us from evil
- Who did I trust - The church of disgust
Holy father - Forgive us our sins
- Dust to dust - The Church of Disgust
In god we trust - The Church of Disgust
In god we trust - The Church of Disgust

A faith based on infallibility
With central authority
To veil the rape of young lives
The moral system an overdrive

[Bridge:]
Satan's eyes - Coming to baptize
- Christianized!

[Chorus:]
Holy father - Deliver us from evil
- Who did I trust - The church of disgust
Holy father - Forgive us our sins
- Dust to dust - The Church of Disgust

10. Destroyer Or Creator

Music & lyrics by Destruction
I wrote this song for those who suffer
This epic poem will make you tougher
Stand up - Why should you be entombed
I wrote those lines those who feel doomed

[Chorus:]
Destroyer or creator
Be your own decapitator

Take these words as an evil base
It amkes you stronger - Phrase by phrase
In a broken world of promised and lies
There are partners in crime - Liberalize!!!

[Chorus:]
Destroyer or creator
Be your own decapitator

Everybody fights his demons
We are all freaks with a different aim
Some had luck others lost it all
When death unites us we are all the same

[Chorus:]
Destroyer or creator
Be your own decapitator
Destroyer or creator
Be your own decapitator

11. Sheep Of The Regime

Music & lyrics by Destruction
Insubordination - A dangerous game
In a uniformed nation outsidrs are to blame
Obey & serve the authorities or you will go thru hell
Adapt to the system or end up in the cell

[Bridge:]
We did not come to fullfill your expectation
That's why we are the scum of nations and nations
We never cared about your rules and your lies:
Cause anything you do my logic denies...

[Chorus:]
Cursed souls of conformity don't wanna be a
Sheep of the Regime
Customization focus of the disease
Sheep of the Regime

Scared flock of sheep - Mutants of their needs
Individuality - A dying quality
The sheperds of the doomed - Oppress, confuse, rape minds
Cowed masses are in fear - The propaganda machine is here!

[Bridge:]
We did not come to fullfill your expectation
That's why we are the scum of nations and nations
We never cared about your rules and your lies:
Cause anything you do my logic denies...

[Chorus:]
Cursed souls of conformity don't wanna be a
Sheep of the Regime
Customization focus of the disease
Sheep of the Regime

Suffocated by paragraphs and rules,
We are losing our given strenght and our tools
- Degenerated by a system that poisoned our souls
- We still believe in our predicted roles! Outburst!

[Bridge:]
We did not come to fullfill your expectation
That's why we are the scum of nations and nations
We never cared about your rules and your lies:
Cause anything you do my logic denies...

[Chorus:]
Cursed souls of conformity don't wanna be a
Sheep of the Regime
Customization focus of the disease
Sheep of the Regime

12. Stand Up And Shout

Music & lyrics by Destruction
[Bonus track]
[DIO cover]

It´s the same old song
You gotta be somewhere at sometime
They never let you fly

It´s like broken glass
You get cut before you see it
So open up your eyes

You´ve got desire so let it out
You´ve got the fire stand up and shout
Shout stand up and shout

You´ve got wings of steel
But they never really move you
You only seem to crawl

You´ve been nailed to the wheel
But never really turning
You know you´ve got to want it all

You´ve got desire so let it out
You´ve got the fire stand up and shout
Shout stand up and shout let it out

You are the strongest chain
And not just some reflection
So never hide again

You are the driver you own the road
You are the fire go on explode
You´ve got desire so let it out
You´ve got the power

Stand up and shout hey
Stand up and shout let it out
Stand up and shout

Rest in peace
