Nothing in this world will ever bring me down again,
No-one is gonna rob me of my self-respect, no way.
Tomorrow is another day...my day.

I regain my iron will
forged in the primal fire

No institution can hold me,
No government can own me,
No superstar of politics is gonna vandalize my mind.
Look down on me from a great height if you must...

I regain my iron will
Forged in the primal fire
Now hear this, ye gods of this world
Your system had me in chains
Now hear this, ye gods of this world...
Count the cost or pay the price.
I am holding on to what I love and I will never ever quit

I regain my iron will
Forged in the primal fire .

I reach out and touch the chill black face
I get the thrill inside
Curious desire; need to know

What lies behind your walls
Real world deserts me now
Thoughts drift into emptiness

Black box calling me again
The time is now ... Decide within
The scream of fear.... An agonizing dread
Clings to me and shows me how the end will be

The weight of time pulls me down
Fear of pain beyond the walls

Someone pull me back, someone...give me the will to get out of this
Insane desire has me now

I know it's where i need to be
Alone again in dark despair
Memory leads me back to simple times
But where to go? -- but what to do?
My thoughts continually flash
Back to you.

Riding on a tide of ill will,
Poison propaganda greedily devoured,
Powers up the war machine.

Contrived genocide,
Taken from the mind of hell.
Vicious rage, lethal incursions,
Venomous hate in action...

Nightmare campaigns
Hell on earth

Working from behind the veil,
Unseen and aggressive manipulators
Excite human evil,

Willful ignorance serves them well,
Gratify arrogant desire in orgies of destruction.

Nightmare campaigns
Hell on earth

Resistance imperative
Persistence imperative
But it will never happen upon the battlefields

Resistance imperative
Persistence imperative
But it will never happen out on the streets,

It's got to be in the heart of every man and woman,
It's got to be in the heart of every child...

No more hell on earth.

We don't need more aggravation,
Don't want to kill for a nation,
All the peoples of the world...
Let's get it on together, let's get it on.

We don't see the will to power,
We don't need all the pain and anger,
You know we flourish in love...
Let's get it on together, let's get it on.

Freedom inside...transcendence is ours!

Everyone on this earth is here for a reason,
Torn apart, maybe...
But in the image of God.
It's time to embrace pure ecstatic bliss.

Talkin', I'm talkin'...I never seem to stop talkin'
Trouble is, I'm talkin' to myself!
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I get my shit together,
You know what I'm sayin'?
Tomorrow never comes.
I'm drinkin', stinkin', lyin' in my bed,
Someone oughta come around and shoot me in the head!

Bring on the light to guide these fools,
These fools that I have been.

Attention! Attention! I'm beggin' for attention,
Can ya hear me looking at you?!
It's just I can't get through my sorry life
Until I get the vibe I've got to get from you...
No malice, I'm Alice falling down the rabbit hole,
Tweedledee Tweedledum totally confused!

Bring on the light to guide these fools,
These fools that I have been.

I am serious, this will never change if it's left up to me...
God of love, help me now!
There is hope in this life even for a fool like me,
By the grace of God.

Bring on the light to guide these fools,
These fools that I have been.

This is the place where you will find the free
This is the place where you will find the brave
From poetry to engineering,
We keep on pioneering,
We become the light of the world
Through the things we achieve...

Made Righteous

This is the place where you will find the best
This is the place where you will find the worst
On the world stage we write the story
Covered in our Hollywood glory,
Our influence...a deal you can't refuse,
Everyone knows who we are!

Made Righteous

Where do we go now?

Life can grind ya down,
Stressed, depressed,
Whatever it takes we got to rise above it...

Reach out, take hold, it's yours...it's your dream.

Numbers, wage slaves,
That's all we are to the modern gods
Just free your mind and shout defiance at the stars...

Reach out, take hold, it's yours...it's your dream.

I don't wanna make anyone else feel small
All I want to be is that which I'm supposed to be.

The room is dark and still
I am no longer alone
Something out there now within...

Sullen silence of the damned
Agents of their own despair
Vicious, hostile and insane

Evil, there is evil in my head,
Grant me asylum from the empire of Hell...they colonize.

Senses far beyond our own
Devious, intent on harm
Am I in their grip again?

Evil, there is evil in my head,
Grant me asylum from the empire of Hell...they colonize.

(Until the day of the judgement of The Almighty...
but until that day they colonize)

The theories of this age cannot explain evil
There is evil in my head,
Grant me asylum from the empire of Hell...they colonize.

Rise above your peers
Play upon their fears
(Heaven looks on)

Carry on and up
The secrets in your heart
(Heaven looks on)

Pride is the soil in which we grow, wither and die,
Open your heart.

Where does it all end...this futile search for more and more?
(Heaven looks on)

Pride is the air we breathe each day, lost in the Self,
Every Colossus shall fall.

How short is this life, how precious, how fragile?
I cannot believe the things I do.
The flames of love and meaning will burn on without me,
I am only ashes and dust.

Now may I introduce to you the cancer of the soul...
I know what it is to be wise in my own eyes,
Every Colossus shall fall.

Is there a peace I could enjoy before I turn away?
Is there a peace I could enjoy before my final day?

Now the sunshine of youth is gone
Possibilities become so few...
What do you see in the eyes of a child?
Uncorrupted wonder.

Sad surrender to mature consensus,
Determined to forget past inspirations,
Find a photograph from days gone by,
A smiling child...it's you...
Uncorrupted Joy.

Will you ever see beyond the shadows again?
