Holosade - Hell House lyrics



Tracks



01. Look Into The Mirror

The mirror holds fear and destiny
Secrets to be told
Smash the glass enter another world
Its force leaves you cold
Ask it a question truth or deceipt
Watch your reflection burn.

When you look something must be taken no one learns
Obsession of possession when the tables turn
Look into the mirror, it holds the future not forever
Look into the mirror, a prisoner of the other side

Walk the realm of fortune and misgiving
The point of no return
You have the keys of success
Without no concern
What you steal you pay the price
Take a gamble throw the dice

Now your time is running out, watch the seconds drift away
You got your answer, fame and fortune in dismay
You passed the forbidden zone, behind the glass you had to ask
And now theres no return, your shattered image fades away

Lock the door into oblivion
A dimension you have crossed
What of wealth what good is it now encased within this glass
Look at yourself what do you see
Do you think you are ready to make a deal?

02. Welcome To The Hell House

Fire rages there's rats in the cellar
Green slime oozes from all of the walls
Secret passageways hidden out of sight
A child's voice screaming a haunting call

Take a deep breath open the gate
The prescence surrounds, the house it waits
Doors shake loose, it's not an illusion
The dead are awake, no psychic explanation

You've got to be crazy to come here at midnight
The dark and cold there's no one in sight
Fear burns under the moonlight
Spectres wait calling the night

Welcome to the Hellhouse
Welcome to the Hellhouse

The wind howls but all is still and calm
Flick the switch no power comes to life
Every room tells a different story
The choice is yours there's no turning back

Lost spirits calling out your name
Melancholy echoes within shadowed vaults
Your heart races faster no entry beyond
Welcome to the Hellhouse

Welcome to the Hellhouse

03. Love It To Death

Possessive eyes watching over you
Penetrating close to the edge
If you thought you were safe
You'd better think again

He's alone and waiting
Not a sound in the dead of the night
You'll feel his teeth sink in
The sensation of his deadly bite

You don't know what's hiding, don't walk these streets at night
A lonely hunter waiting for a victim, feel his hot breath
Love it to death

A frozen stare has you in a trance
You find it so hard to resist
Hypnotised he's got you cornered
You feel his bite, a merciless kiss

Now you're cold, somethings taken a hold
You realise you're in love with the night
You desire the hot crimson liquid
Another victim for you to invite... to invite

Love it
Love it

Love it
Love it

04. Madame Guillotine

On a distant horizon is where she stands
For all the world to see her, no lady in waiting at hand
Forged in finest metal, craftsmrn built her frame
She has no exceptions to who she puts to shame

Would you like to meet Madame Guillotine?
A lady of fame, a bloody mystery
When the news is read don't lose your head
Would you like to meet Madame Guillotine?

Standing to attention wind through her frame
A razor guilded edge ready to make her claim
Shadows starting to overcast she waits for you
Pay for your last request, wave goodbye to red, white and blue

What you gonna do when she calls for you?
Will you meet her face to face and kiss her blade?
With a transfixed glare she doesn't care
It's your blood she wants to taste you only have yourself to blame

Now your hours near the drum begins to roll
Staring at the enormity it captivates your soul
She has her pride and glory, they march up to their fate
A mindless worthless destiny
Sends them crashing through Hell's black gate

05. Psycho

Psycho killer on the run escaped and on the loose
Maniac with an axe intent on improper use
Revenge goes wild in his mind reminds him of his past
A straight jacket ripped to shreds got to find him fast

Wanted dead or alive, he's on the run
Throat choker murder with pain, he's the one to blame
Psychotic strain he's got to be insane
Get all the facts but watch that axe
Psycho

Get the message, get it out, inform the authorities
Waste no time before his crime forget formalities
Get road blocks, hand out guns, he's hungry for the kill
He's lost his mind, will take a life, just for the thrill

Trapped like a rat but he'll try to get away
Don't delay he's dismayed but is it all just an act
He's no good, splattered in blood
No time to waste before it's too late

Radio contact there's panic in the streets
Search lights scan the horizon looking for the killer elite
Psycho he's on the loose looking for you

He's broke free no feelings of remorse
The manic look in his eye so vacant and lost
The axe held high ready to strike get out of his way
Break the chain he's loose again got to make his claim

Wanted dead or alive, he's on the run
Throat choker murder with pain, he's the one to blame
Psychotic strain he's got to be insane
Get all the facts but watch that axe

Psycho he's on the run, Psycho the terrors begun
Psycho he's on the loose, Psycho he's looking for you

Psycho

06. Bittersweet

I'm hungry, I'm waiting, searching for my need
I'm a cheater mistreater, keep your children off the street

I'm bitter sweet, shaken not neat, I've been let off of my leash
I've been looking for a piece of meat
To satisfy to make me complete

No more lying who am I the two of us deep inside
In my dreams the other side appears
To bite the hand that feeds
I'm hungry and I'm waiting, I'm hungry and I'm waiting

Schizophrenic twist and turn nobodys fool they never will learn

And now I'm out the tension mounts
Bitter sweet shaken not near

Stop tormenting is it me desperation will perceive
Is it you a split reaction has got a hold on me

I'm hungry and I'm waiting, I'm hungry and I'm waiting

Now don't resist I've been signed off the list
I wonder if I'm gonna be missed
You can't hide under the sheets
I'm bitter sweet shaken not neat

Indecision with me and you who has the final say
Controls my mind in disguise like Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde
I'm hungry and I'm waiting I'm bitter sweet
I'm a cheater I'm bitter sweet
No more lying I'm bitter sweet
I'm bitter bitter sweet

07. Eternal Life

A boy of 14 summers sits upon a golden throne
People of the Nile bow down in praise
He wears the double crown ruling north and south
Where all men worship sun and moon
In his right the young king holds the sacred gift of life
In his left the power of death
No one can see what will be and will be done
For the pharoah is cursed and soon will die

Give to me Eternal Life

The vulture and the cobra weaken as his life fades
To give way to a suffering view of death
He lies quite still all life blood drained away
The curse of the pharoahs srikes again
Entomb his body in the valley of the kings
Where upon his soul journeys onward to the stars
All is darkness in calm majestic slumber
But he shall rise against those who come to plunder

Give to me Eternal Life

To speak my name is to give me life once again
And my soul shall live forever in this place
You enter my tomb and take all you can find
To steal my possessions a curse upon your mind

08. Nightmare Reality

Mesmorised, paralysed highway madness
Visions glare from my window screen
Dissapearing apparitions invade my mind
Falling to the depths of tomorrow
Where only dreams are real
Slowly starting to show the signs

Far in the distance, a lonely figure stands,
Watching and waiting, a knife in his hand

Moving closer coming into view
All alone in the pouring rain
No one around I can see him now
No expression on his face
At midnight in the middle of nowhere
Standing by himself, is he really there?

A man on the road waiting alone
Has he got something to hide
Should you stop or pass him by
Reality warns you to be aware. Should you? Dare you?

Don't pull over, leave him to wait, evil thoughts in his mind
Wake up screaming, nightmares begin, theres no tears of pain
Is he really there?

Was it all my imagination
Just a memory of the past
Don't look back, was he really there?
Could have been an hallucination
My mind playing tricks on me
Whatever i was leave it all behind

Is he really there? Was it my imagination?
