Tracks



01. Zombie Apocalypse

They're walking by day, they stumble by night
Wandering blindly, with no end in sight
Mass communication, hand to hand
A new epidemic has control of this land

They're coming at you one by one
We've got to kill them all
They're coming for us one by one
Disconnect them all

Society is now deceased
Technology has unleashed the beast

Help me!
It's a Zombie Apocalypse
Save me
From the Zombie Apocalypse

Charging blindly forward, no words being said
Lifeless batteries of the living dead
In search of power, endlessly
For one more hour of mindless ecstasy

They're coming for us one by one
We've got to kill them all
We've got to kill them, one by one
Disconnect them all

Devoid of souls, their lips are sealed
Robots at the grinding wheel

Help me!
It's a Zombie Apocalypse
Save me
From the Zombie Apocalypse

Cryptic messages, from beyond
They roam the land, like the Devil's spawn

On their own, just empty shells
A useless herd of dying cells

Help me!
It's a Zombie Apocalypse
Save me
From the Zombie Apocalypse
Help me!
It's a Zombie Apocalypse
Please, won't you save me
From the Zombie Apocalypse!

02. Too Mean To Die

I'm a heavy metal warrior
Restless son of a bitch
A weapon of destruction

With both hands on the switch

Walk right though the fire
With venom in my veins
Breaking down the doors
Kicking ass and taking names

Striking just like lightning
Forward without fear
Don't think twice about it
Never shed a tear

Stalk like a chameleon
Hiding in plain sight
You won't see me coming
Too late to say goodnight

I'm a man on a mission
You'll never kill me
And I'm a man with a vision
You're too blind to see

I'm too mean to die
I'm too mean to die
Spit right in your eye

Poison and infection
Parasites and pain
Can't live within me
They all go up in flames

Powered by adrenaline
Vengeance is the creed
Focused like a pit bull
Satisfaction guaranteed

I'm a man on a mission
You'll never kill me
And I'm a man with a vision
You're just too blind to see

I'm too mean to die
I'm too mean to die
I've got to live forever!
I'm too mean to die
Too mean to die

You can't kill me
I was born to survive
Got the heart of a lion
I'm a cat with nine lives

I'm too mean to die
Too mean to die
I'm too mean to die
I just might live forever!
I'm too mean to die
Too mean to die

03. Overnight Sensation

Don't wanna be a star
On the Hollywood Walk of Fame
'Cause I'm a big deal, yeah
On the internet wall of pain
I don't need to drive no car
I'm never gonna work that hard
I just need more speed and my own domain

I get smiles and frowns, ups and downs
Each and every afternoon
I get hearts and tears, wows and cheers
I never even leave my room

I need instant gratification
I'm an overnight sensation
A subject of adoration
Overnight sensation
Gonna be an overnight sensation

I wanna be famous for nothin'
Just like a Kardashian
Tell the world my whole life story
Even though I don't have one
I can teach you to paint by number
How to freshen up your page
You're gonna get my opinions
'Cause I'm a boss, and it's my stage

I get smiles and frowns, ups and downs
It doesn't matter what you choose
I get hearts and tears, wows and cheers
Just wanna get a million views

Gimme instant gratification
I'm an overnight sensation
Craving the admiration
Overnight sensation
Oh, I need no justification
Overnight sensation
Gonna be an overnight sensation

I get smiles and frowns, ups and downs
It doesn't matter what you choose
I get hearts and tears, wows and cheers
Just wanna get a million views

I need instant gratification
I'm an overnight sensation
I'm a source of agitation
Overnight sensation
I never even had a graduation
I'm an overnight sensation
It's all viral masturbation
Overnight sensation
I'm gonna be an overnight sensation

04. No Ones Master

The media's controlling the masses
Stoking our anger and fear
Further dividing the classes
Serving the richest's careers

Their mantra is lies and deception
When honesty's all that I crave
I decline and there'll no exceptions
I am no one's master
No one's slave

No one's slave

Living in fear ain't worth living
Wasting your life is the crime
The reaper will be unforgiving
Wake up, while you're still in your prime

The guide of my life is my conscience
My way is the path that I pave
I treat, how I want to be treated
I am no one's master
No one's slave

No one's slave

I won't rule
I won't bow
I won't sink my eyes to the ground
I won't steal
I won't kneel
I won't bend my knee to the crowned

I pledge an oath to myself and to life
I'm not afraid of the sword or the knife

The guide of my life is my conscience
My way is the path that I pave
Equality's all that I'm after
I am no one's master
No one's slave

No one's slave
No one's master
I am no one's
No one's slave

05. The Undertaker

The undertaker is a busy man
For he and death go hand in hand
He works all day and digs all night
He loves the death, they are his life
No mortal can escape his plan
He sifts us all as grains of sand
And then one day he too shall pass
And as he's dying, death will laugh

The undertaker knows no shame
He's come to stake his claim

Rich or poor, large or small
The undertaker takes them all

Undertaker
Bring out your dead!
The undertaker
(I'm the undertaker)

The undertaker is dressed in black
To hide in shadows between the cracks
He's no remorse, just sympathy
For all to see or so it seems
His work is never done
Clients many, friends not one
But in the end we understand
The undertaker is a busy man

The undertaker knows no shame
To him we'll offer game

Rich or poor, large or small
The undertaker takes them all

Undertaker
Bring out your dead!
He is the undertaker
(Undertaker)

The undertaker knows no shame
To him we'll offer game
The undertaker holds no blame

Rich or poor, large or small
The undertaker takes them all

Undertaker
Bring out your dead!
Undertaker
Bring out your dead!
The undertaker

06. Sucks To Be You

You, you're a perpetual liar
You think that you're the messiah
And that you never do wrong
You, expect us to be believers
We know that you're a deceiver
And you'll string us along

Born to be a loser
Boasting's all you do
You know it all, but you just don't have a clue

Oh well, it sucks to be you
Sucks to be you
Yeah, it sucks to be you
Sucks to be you

You, you set my world on fire
You watch the flames grow higher
You love to watch it burn
You're, a source of endless chatter
Somehow you think that you matter
And that it's always your turn

Washed up and depleted
Jealous and enraged
Your story's over, but you just can't turn the page

Oh well, it sucks to be you
Sucks to be you
Yeah, it sucks to be you
Sucks to be you

Deep down inside of you
Lives a coward and a liar
Deep down inside of you
Your selfishness burns brighter
Deep down inside of you
Your arrogance rings true
Deep down inside of you
It must suck to be you

Narcissistic loser
Boasting's all you do
About yourself, until your face is blue

Oh well, it sucks to be you
Sucks to be you
Yeah, it sucks to be you!
Sucks to be you
Sucks to be you!

07. Symphony Of Pain

By the hand of fate, knocking on my door
Taken all the magic, forevermore
Torn by secrecy, not a whisper on the wind
Solitude is torment, to the end

Trapped in silence, how I loathe this sanctity
Imprisoned by this irony
Darkened elusion, seeking only to embed
Melodies held hostage in my head

This has to be, my agony
Can someone break these chains?

Yeah
It's a silent prison
This Symphony of Pain
Oh, can't you listen
To this Symphony of Pain

Dispel this agony
Oh, someone hear my prayer
This sorrow's, too much to bear
Lost in loneliness, concede to destiny

Only my music sets me free
My rhapsody, of tragedy
Can someone break these chains?

Yeah
It's a silent prison
This Symphony of Pain
Oh can't you listen
To this Symphony of Pain

It's a silent prison
This Symphony of Pain
The world shall listen
To my Symphony of pain
This Symphony of Pain

08. The Best Is Yet To Come

Once I was a man of fortune
Lived my life with pearls and gold
Had my time with wine and roses
I never thought of getting old

Time went by and I got wiser
Loved and lost, along the way
I found the meaning of forgiveness
Pardoned enemies and prey

When it rains, I look for rainbows
When it’s dark, I see the stars
Call me a dreamer, call me naïve
I will always say, the best is yet to come
Call me a simple man, call me naïve
On my dying bed I’ll say, the best is yet to come

Many times, I feel like screaming
Bang my head against the wall
Watch my luck run through my fingers
Losing faith in all

Then I close my eyes in silence
Feel the spirit, that I crave
April showers, bring May flowers
Growing on my grave

When it rains, I look for rainbows
When it’s dark, I see the stars
Call me a dreamer, call me naïve
I will always say the best is yet to come
Call me a simple man, call me naïve
On my dying bed I’ll say, the best is yet to come

The best is yet to come
The best is yet to come

When it rains, I look for rainbows
When it’s dark, I see the stars

On my dying bed I’ll say, the best is yet to come

On my dying bed I’ll say
The best is yet to come

09. How Do We Sleep

What do you say, when there's nothing left to say?
When all the words are spoken, and the silence runs astray?
The thoughts have all been written down, the pen is laid aside
Do you feel your mind at peace, or do you feel as though you've died?

It's a war of truth and lies
A search for right and wrong
Who will fall and who will rise
The battle rages on

How do we sleep at night?
With the world around us going to hell
Tell me, how do we justify?
We do nothing, nothing changes at all

In a thousand years from now, the winners they will be praised
The history books will all be burned, that told of other ways
So when tomorrow morning comes, to bring another day
We'd better test our mettle, before we fade away

When good men stop and stand aside
The evil ones succeed
They take for granted all we've done
And watch the planet bleed

So how do we sleep at night?
With the world around us going to hell
Tell me, how do we justify?
We do nothing, nothing changes at all

Who will fall and who will rise
A search for right and wrong
It's a war of truth and lies
The battle's raging on

How do we sleep at night?
With the world around us going to hell
Tell me, how do we justify?
We do nothing, and nothing changes at all

10. Not My Problem

Dug your hole, don't bear your soul and sin all over me
Made your bed now lay your head, you don't get no sympathy
Hear that sound it's coming down, the hammer's got to fall
Hit the lights you're in the sights, up against the wall

Don't blame your misfortunes on me
You've done this all on your own
So many others are too blind to see
Well, let me throw the first stone

Not my problem
Not my problem
It's not my problem
Not my problem
Keep it to yourself

Realize how many times I've bailed you out before
I bought your charms with open arms, now I close the door
You've done the crime now do the time, go bitch to someone else
Take a stand and play your hand, you've brought this on yourself

Don't blame your misfortunes on me
You've done this all on your own
So many others are too blind to see
Well, let me throw the first stone

You're not my problem
Not my problem
It's not my problem
Not my problem
Keep it to yourself

Don't blame your misfortunes on me
You've done this all on your own
So many others are too blind to see
Well, let me throw the first stone

Not my problem
Not my problem
It's not my problem
Not my problem
Keep it to yourself
