Young and free, something you'll never be
A childhood's end, it's lunacy Pure dictation, they don't listen And you're just waiting for what you're missing Welcome to your nightmare You just can't walk away It's time for you, to choose, your fate You just can't let it lay Welcome to your nightmare Your whole life's on the way Today You're no good, misunderstood, A.I.R. All their hopes and visions of what they want you to be Crucial times, made up minds, A.I.R. So high and mighty, though much too blind too see Who are you gonna live your life for? Conformity will trap you like a locked door Independence means owning your decision's Authority will put your soul in prison Fight, go insane, there's no one else to blame Stop, their influence, you can't give them a chance Break, right through the wall, that separates us all Start, your second life, without their hands in sight You got your pride you got your visions Don't subside, don't ever give in Don't compromise just keep on grinning The games they play you just keep on winning Keep on winning, A.I.R. 02. Lone Justice
There's two kinds, of people in the world
The outlaws, and the lawmen that prevail The bounty hunter's job is on the wrong side of the law Intentions, of the truth and nothing more Burn'em, clear the streets as he rides into the town Cause the nameless one's gonna have some fun He's gonna bring an outlaw down Wasted, it's over quick he's nailed 'em three for three Then he with his squint-eyed grin and stubbled chin He rides through history The jury, in his mind the choices weigh The trials, if you're gulity you're his prey No judgement otherwise can change the lust That's in his eyes The sentence, will be carried out in stride No name, like a shadow on a moonless night Real game, He'll be there to uphold Justice, law and order And you'll pay, the highest fee When the gunslinger takes his piece The money, it's the price you have to pay When he calls, drop your eyes and look away The man has taken life to balance scales of wrong and right Existence, each day a moral fight. 03. Madhouse
White coats to bind me, out of control
I live alone inside my mind World of confusion, air filled with noise Who says that my life's such a crime? Tapped, in this nightmare I wish I'd wake As my whole life begins to shake four walls surround me an empty gaze I can't find my way out of this maze Cause I don't care Fall in, fall out Gone without a doubt, help me I can't take the blame They don't feel the shame It's a madhouse Or so they claim It's a madhouse Oh, am I insane? My fears behind me, what can I do My dreams haunt my sleep at night Oh no, won't learn their lesson, white fills my eyes And only then they see the light 04. S.S.C./Stand Or Fall
Fighting for existence, looking for a way
The race is getting harder, won't last another day Try to make it happen, always on the go Can't escape the hours, time will never know. Right now my new life has begun I have to stand tall I can't run They're trying to take it away I'm fighting the battle I... Stand or fall, leave it to no one Stand or fall, fight for my right Stand or fall, they'll never break me Stand or fall, Stand or fall Looking deep insie myself to change My world around Never find an answer, but I still stand my ground Never ending battle, my everlasting will I'll come back when it's over, come back for the kill Honor and loyalty so hard to find People I've trusted they're all left behind Truth is the virtue they no longer seek Stand with the strongest or fall with the weak 05. The Enemy
The plans, of a race gone mad
A final solution to pass All dreams are taken from their lives No hope for the young all the old realize He is but a solitary man Whose prejudice will spread like a flame Throughout the land He's enslaving those who will be free Etching his own name in black For all of us to hear and see A yellow star for those accused There's no escape once you've been pinned A relocation only to confuse And all their propaganda to hide the awful truth Screams - In the night scars so deep that they won't mend Screams - In the night in their souls they can't pretend Six million lives on the hands of heads of state They followed orders from above Then one man when all was lost He took his life, he'll never pay the price They cannot hide or defend or disguise For the truth is well known there'll be no alibis Judgement will pass and their fates won't be kind for the final solution was mass genocide 06. Aftershock
The day will come, yu cannot run
White hot clouds fill the sky See the red flare, blasting hot air There's no place left to hide Binding our eyes as the sun turns to black A world full of harted and fear All are committed, there's no going back There'll be no one left to hear Shock, there's no relief Shock, no will ever know why Shock Shock, panic won't cease Shock, time to say our last good-bye Shock Aftershock, humanity's loss Aftershock, all is destroyed Aftershock, have no remorse Aftershock, into the void Never again we cannot depend On leaders who see things so blind Time will not lend, and never amend A lesson for all mankind 07. Armed And Dangerous
Trapped up inside here, like lions in a cage
I've been a mark of injustice Bound by these chains Can't find a reason, I'm on my own My destiny waits for a sign from me I'm leaving alone I'm out on my way now It's been so many years The chase is my lifeblood I have no more fears Fire, burns in my veins Anger, shows on my face Hatred, it poisons my soul Look out, I'm about to explode Evil ones try to destroy us We're armed and prepared for attack We'll take on the world with the rebellion We're dangerous down to the last Armed and dangerous Am I evil, or am I insane The lion inside of me, is no longer tame A blade in my left, a gun in my right to beat you within, an inch of your life 08. Medusa
Endless curse, blood runs cold
Evil stare, will turn your flesh to stone Land of doom, world of sin All subside, don't venture near The island where she lives Oh, she'll suck you in Destroyer of life, Demon Oh I'm ready to strike, Gorgon Serpents bride, the end awaits Human prey, no swords or armor Shield you from your fate Hey you, you can't escape Wicked smile, full of lies Head of snakes, approch her cave But don't look in her eyes Oh, her eyes Sieze, appease, deceive, die Medusa, she's staring at you Medusa, with her eyes Evil witch, cast her spell, seducing you She'll take you to the very depths of hell cannot move, no eyes to see, a statue now For all eternity Medusa laughs at you And you're her slave Medusa, she's staring at you Medusa, with her eyes Medusa, oh she's cold 09. Gung Ho
Striking down the enemy
Fighting hand to hand Troops are thrusting onwards Time to take command Ready to devour On the attack Bodies lie dismembered Maimed, killed, and hacked Draw fast, cut first Live hard, die hard Feel the point of the blade Lunging like an animal, killing all in sight Going for the throat, living for the fight In a bath of bloodshed, mixing with the sweat Crawling through the barbwire, put it to the test Fight, fight fight Fight, fight fighting the war Gung-Ho, Gung-Ho, Gung-Ho Raging on the warpath, storming through the town Blowing it to pieces, killing all around Stand in our way, if you've got the balls In a hail of bullets, your nailed to the wall We wait out the day, we burn in the sun We move in by night, and kill everyone Show no emotions, have no regrets Made to take pain, no fear of death |
