I cannot lose control, they'll drag me down, down the hole
must win the battle, I must win the war,
just buy our product and you'll want more
we say refresh, refresh the demon
subliminal, yet direct, another billion, to collect
another flavor to satisfy, they forgot to tell you, it's all a lie
let's raise a glass to the young, models and athletes they'll become
so sip the poison, sip the wine, suck your life out, you're doing fine
we say refresh, refresh the demon
temptation, frustration, it ain't easy to beat
condition, addiction I shall defeat
back against the wall, I'm through
there is only one thing left to do
that is to fight the demon
I cannot lose control, they'll drag me down, down the hole
must win the battle, I must win the war,
"just buy our product and you'll want more"
we say refresh, refresh the demon

I kill for god, and I kill for power
for propaganda, the news hour
you know my cause so don't turn your
back you see my anger, fear my attack
assassinate kidnap and murder, I will terrify
the death of an innocent, I will justify
target you are now in my sight
you'll never know what hit you, you're blown by dynamite
I'm gonna overthrow you, burn to the ground
hijack or with a bomb, I'm gonna shoot you down
arson, ransom, I got a gun to your head
you do what I want or bang bang you're dead
I kill for god and I kill for power
for propaganda, the news hour
you know my cause so don't turn your back
you see my anger, you better fear my attack

[Instrumental]

hey you, I hear you got nothing to lose
well I got a deal to soothe your soul, an offer you can't refuse
just step into my world, I guarantee you'll never be the same
let me introduce myself, I'm sure you've heard the name
they call me the pastor of disaster
sucker, I've got you now, it's time to make your descent
I've got one hell of a schedule, there will be no time to repent
what, you dare defy me, when I could slice you up with ease
I am temptation so get down on your knees
never cut a deal with the pastor
I am the 6-star general and these are my commands
bow to me and take my plague, spread it across the lands
never cut a deal with the pastor
can anybody help me, you sold your soul
can anybody help me, never cut a deal with disaster
never cut a deal with the pastor
can anybody help me, you sold your soul
can anybody help me, never cut a deal with the pastor
can anybody help me, you sold your soul
can anybody help me, never cut a deal with disaster
they call me the pastor of disaster

I'm scratching a picture on the wall
of a man called nothing at all
why are they keeping me here
please just let me go
please let me go
I'm hearing voices deep inside my head
but I don't want to listen
why don't you leave me, just leave me alone
cause I'm in no condition
Join us - I won't follow you
Join us - there's nothing you can do
Join us - you're never going to win
Join us - cause I'll never let you in
what are these creatures crawling over me?
I'm in no condition
Join us - I won't follow you
Join us - there's nothing you can do
Join us - you're never going to win
Join us - cause I'll never let you in
I claw at the walls until my fingers bleed
is it really happening or is it just a dream
I look in the mirror
his eyes stare right back
he is always watching
this room turns to black
we are the voices deep inside you're head
but you don't want to listen

I'm on the run and I'm moving fast
I got to get away, away from the past
it's getting closer, and I can feel a chill
there's no time to waste, there's no time to kill

gotta run
it's Ultraparanoia

darkness surrounds, I can feel the eyes
burning to chase their human prize
I got to cover the tracks, I gotta cover 'em well
cause if they catch me, I'm going straight to hell

I'm getting sick of everything I see
and I hate what's happening to me
this place is cold, it's turning me to stone
these streets won't leave me be
garbage, murder, misery, so this is ecstasy
it's all a bunch of lies
you try to take me and rape me of my dreams
they're melting right before my eyes, city of ice
I'm feeling anger and I'm feeling rage
just like a puppet on a stage
I hear the shots can't you hear the screams
death is all around, this ain't no dream
garbage, murder, misery, so this is ecstasy
it's all a bunch of lies
you try to take me and rape me of my dreams
they're melting right before my eyes, city of ice
I'm freezing up inside, there's nothing left to heal
this can't be happening, this can't be real
a living nightmare, what is it for
cause I can't take it, I can't take it anymore, no
I'm getting tired of all this pain
I'm surprised I'm not insane
it's never over until the end
but I know I'll never be the same
garbage, murder, poverty / so this is ecstasy?
it's all a bunch of lies
you try to take me and rape me of my dreams
they're melting right before my eyes - city of ice

I'd sell my mother and I'd steal from the blind
just to have every last nickel and dime
break-ins and muggings, I'll try to defraud
I'll run up the bill on your credit card
anything for money
I'll sell a secret and betray the land
robbing a friend, isn't larceny grand
buying and selling, the running of guns
I run from the law but embezzle their funds
anything for money
anything for money
hundreds of thousands without a concern
millions and billions there's money to burn and I want it all
I'll try to sue you and take you to court
and if I have to blackmail and extort
taking the money to fund my research
swindling millions by using the church
anything for money
anything for money
hundreds of thousands without a concern
millions and billions there's money to burn and I want it all

I like to feast on thoughts of anger
I like to prey on evil minds
and I like to rip the very fabric
that keeps them all intertwined
I'm full of lies, just hold me as you die
I wrench this vice, my human sacrifice
you beg and I feed, your blood is all I need
rapture, ecstasy, it's time to bleed for me
I love the dark and screaming madness
no one can see through my disguise
the sewer rats are just a snack
but I'm here to crush your petty lives
I'm full of lies, just hold me as you die
I wrench this vice, my human sacrifice
you beg and I feed, your blood is all I need
rapture, ecstasy, it's time to bleed for me
I am a never-ending nightmare
and I dream of swallowing the sun
my eyes burn to embrace you
nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
I'm full of lies, just hold me as you die
I wrench this vice, my human sacrifice
you beg and I feed, your blood is all I need
rapture, ecstasy, it's time to bleed for me

my door's locked from the inside, I can't take anymore
I'm safe from the outside, the other side of the door
alone in the darkness, alone in my space
no one can reach me, no one to get on my case
cause I'm getting sick of the outside
trying to get deep into me
there's too many voices and victims around me
I've been sitting for hours, but they won't leave me alone
and everything that I see turns me to stone
I'm alone in the darkness, and I think I'll stay
cause this is the solitude I crave
cause I'm getting sick of the outside
trying to get deep into me
there's too many voices and victims around me

so precious and new, I see the innocent little eyes
I'll always be there, I'll always be there to hear your cries
the way you've changed my life
from the very first day you were born
you give me the answer to what it's all for
I worry for you as I look into the future
all the things that you've shown me, it's almost as if you
were a messenger
the way you've changed my life
from the very first day you were born
you give me the answer to what it's all for
want to hold you, so come, in my arms
want to feel you and keep you from harm
I knew from the start that you could steal my (heart)
