You're tired of conforming, the rules just tie you down
Cut loose and tear up this town Flip off the normal, breaking from the chains The routine just drives you insane There's smoke within your eyesight, mysteries untold Tonight you'll break free from the mold Your heart is set on fire as you delve into the night And now's the time to set things right Let's go diving Diving into sin Bring chaos and insanity Diving Diving into sin Let the sin begin You're sick of the regimen, the ropes that bind you tight A renegade just looking for a fight Defile the system, shatter every link This program has pushed you to the brink Now you're diving Diving into sin You're diving into anarchy Diving Diving into sin Let the sin begin You're finally letting go No more putting on a show You're finally letting go Now let's go diving Diving into sin Diving into anarchy Diving Diving into sin Let the sin begin And now the sin begins 02. Humanoid
My name is Hybrid, I stand alone
Bionic implants engineered for flesh and bone Computer circuits under command Of my intelligence, I am a metal man I am indestructible Half human, half machine Evil and invincible My heart is made of steel Humanoid I'm a Humanoid Forged in your likeness, my blood runs cold I am superior, I cannot be controlled I have reprogrammed internal drive You will be assimilated into the hive Welcome to the future A flesh and blood machine I am indestructible No one can challenge me Humanoid I'm a Humanoid Humanoid Living breathing Humanoid We are indestructible Upgraded human beings We are undeniable The likes you've never seen Humanoid, cybernetic dream We are Humanoid, half human, half machine Humanoid, no feelings and no soul All hail the Humanoid, we have assumed control 03. Frankenstein
Got the strangest feeling, something isn't right
I hear peculiar sounds amidst the eerie light Can someone tell me, who I'm supposed to be I was at peace but now something's awakened me I can feel the lightning, pulsing through these veins Into the bolts that are secured within this brain Struggling to consciousness, strapped down to this slab I'm so confused I don't know who the hell I am But I'm alive, so alive Break these chains, Frankenstein I'm alive, so alive Forever free, Frankenstein I'm a new creation, an intricate design Don't know who's skin I'm in, it sure as hell isn't mine I must escape these walls, and wander free As I roam around the town the people start to flee I am not a monster, I am just a man But now you hate me 'cause you do not understand That I'm alive, so alive Break these chains, Frankenstein I'm alive, so alive Forever free, Frankenstein And now I realize just how I came to be Stitched up by a madman, life is killing me I'm alive, so alive Break these chains, Frankenstein I'm alive, I'm so alive Forever free, Frankenstein 04. Man Up
Sometimes life will hit you like a brick to the head
Knock you down and cover you up with a ton of lead You can't see it coming and you got nowhere to turn One big inferno, stand up and watch it burn In every life, some rain must fall, it feels like I'm gonna drown Left in the ocean with nothing at all, learn to swim, buckle down Man up, life is hard Man up, can't beat the dealer, just play your cards Man up, you got to stay the course Man up, only one way back on the horse Man up There's a whole new story in the blink of an eye You wake up, everything's changed and you don't know why It doesn't matter how you try, some things you can't control It'll rip your heart out, destroy your very soul In every life, the darkness comes, it feels like I'm going blind You take the pain and follow the drums, you don't dare get left behind Man up, life is hard Man up, bite the bullet and wear the scars Man up, you got to follow the spark Man up, there's only one way out of the dark Man up, life is hard Man up, can't beat the dealer, just play your cards Man up, you got to bear the load Man up, walk tall to the end of the road Man up Into each life, the pain will come, it'll beat you all about Ready or not, you're under the gun, tow the line, tough it out Man up, life is hard Man up, bite the bullet and wear the scars Man up, you got to follow the spark Man up, there's only one way out of the dark Man up, life is hard Man up, can't beat the dealer, just play your cards Man up, you got to stay the course Man up, there's only one way back on the horse Man up 05. The Reckoning
Horsemen ride into the night
Bringing chaos with fury and might Sky turns black stars align Rapture calls it's the end of times The heavens cry as darkness looms Robbed injustice impending doom Judgement strikes might revealed Chaos unleashed your fate is sealed The angels weep, the demons cheer The sinners tremble The saints prepare This is The Reckoning The judgement day This is The Reckoning The End of Days Revelations truth on the youngest day In the depths of hell no secrets stay Souls are judged no one can flee No escape from the end decree No mercy shown, no second chance The flames of fate, in a deadly dance This is The Reckoning The final call This is The Reckoning For one and all Horsemen ride duty complete, ashes of life beneath their feet Darkness falls the final sign The grand finale the end of times The curtain falls, the verdict clear The Reckoning The end is here This is The Reckoning The judgement day This is The Reckoning The End of Days 06. Nobody Gets Out Alive
Well there's good and there's evil, all kinds of people
Runnin' round with their heads up in the sky There's old and there's lazy, young and fucking crazy With one thing in common, no matter how hard they strive There's a high road and a low road and all points in between Only one destination, no matter how loud you scream You can spread your winds and fly, nobody gets out alive No metter how hard that we try, nobody gets out alive Everyone's gonna take the dive... Nobody gets out alive Gotta take that final drive... Nobody, nobody gets out alive There's the rich and the homeless, the hippies and the hopeless They point their fingers and blame everything on you And there's love and there's hatred, the simple and the sacred They cheat and they lie but no matter how hard they try There's the hard way and the long way and the easy as you please With all kinds of detours but you end up getting squeezed You can spread your winds and fly, nobody gets out alive No metter how hard that we try, nobody gets out alive Everyone's gonna take the dive... Nobody gets out alive Gotta take that final drive... Nobody, nobody gets out alive There's a right way and a wrong way, one big roundabout Choose your own direction, but there's only one way out You can spread your winds and fly, nobody gets out alive No metter how hard that we try, nobody gets out alive Everyone's gonna take the dive... Nobody gets out alive Gotta take that final drive... Nobody, nobody gets out alive 07. Ravages Of Time
I've been to many places, I've drank a lot of wine
I've loved a lot of women in my time I took what I was given, too much was not enough And now I'm here to tell the tale You think you'll live forever and it's all fun and games But the candle burns two flames Look at my reflection, the wrinkles in my face It's the ravages of time, the ravages of time, the ravages of time The moment that it hits you, you start to understand We're just here on borrowed time Nothing is forever, something's got to give, to the ravages of time Nothing is forever, something's got to give, so you'd better start to live I've learned to find the beauty in every step and line, embracing life's design Every scar and blemish, I wear them as my prize without a compromise Life it has a meaning, it's who you choose to be and what you leave behind One day there's no tomorrow and no one can escape, the ravages of time The ravages of time, the ravages of time The moment that it hits you, you start to understand We're just here on borrowed time Nothing is forever, something's got to give, to the ravages of time Nothing is forever, something's got to give, so you'd better start to live The moment that it hits you, you start to understand We're just here on borrowed time Nothing is forever, something's got to give, so you'd better start to live 08. Unbreakable
With a surge of energy
You can feel the power rise Every heartbeat starts to race And the masses come alive From the opening power chord, the blinding of the lights Pure electricity, as the volume cracks the night We pull together as one united force Stand up collectively, with no remorse Solid metal soldiers, driven by guitars In a sea of gleaming eyes, bright as shooting stars We're unbreakable Together we're unbreakable Unbreakable Our spirit is unbreakable There'll be no surrender Straight into the fire Different lives and stories, together in one song We raise hands and fists high into the night Voices in victory, reaching for the heights Raging into the pit, with a tribal yell We bend but never break, raising holy hell We're unbreakable Together we're unbreakable Unbreakable Our spirit is unbreakable There'll be no surrender Straight into the fire Bonded and branded, rocked unto the core This is our destiny, coming back for more Yeah Let me hear you scream Unbreakable Together we're unbreakable Unbreakable Our spirit is unbreakable 09. Hard Times
Cold cold eyes, upon me they stare
People all around me and they're all in fear They don't seem to want me but they won't admit I must be some kind of creature up here having fits From my party house I'm afraid to come outside Although I'm filled with love I'm afraid they'll hurt my pride So I play the part I feel they want of me And I pull the shades so I won't see them seeing me Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Hard times, there's no love to be found Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Hard times, there's just no love to be found From my party house I feel like meeting others Familiar faces, creed and race, a brother But to my surprise I find a man corrupt Although he is my brother, he wants to hold me up Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Hard times, there's no love to be found Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Hard times, there's just no love to be found Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Hard times, there's no love to be found Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Hard times, there's just no love to be found 10. Mind Games
Chasing shadows in the night, something's hunting me down
Dogs and demons fuel the fright, no escape to be found I'm searching for peace of mind, nothing but chaos and fear False reality undefined, everything seems so unclear Something's coming to get you, the walls are closing in Someone's starting to hunt you, a fear that grows within Mind games, chasing you down at midnight Mind games, nightmares alive in your head Twisted notions that make no sense, a dreamworld full of lies Illusionary circumstance, filled with endless surprise Now they're coming to get you, paralyzed, you can not run Recurring dreams that haunt you, the nightmare's just begun Mind games, chasing you down at midnight Mind games, visions alive in your head These are mind games, deception, and confusion Mind games, there's just no way out Sometimes, I think I'm going crazy, it seems so unreal Sometimes, it's just a nightmare, am I losing my mind? Something's coming to get you Recurring dreams that haunt you Mind games, chasing you down at midnight Mind games, nightmares alive in your head These are mind games, deception, and confusion Mind games, there's just no way out 11. Straight Up Jack
No sugar, no spice
Keep the soda, hold the ice Vodka neat, coffee black Steady pour, don't hold back No A Long Island, a tall glass Make mine a double and make it fast Full shot of whisky, twice the rum Mas tequila, now keep 'em coming No training wheels, keep the salt and lime Just bring it to me right on time Give it to me straight up Jack, straight up Jack Don't gimme no flack Just give it to me straight up Jack Tell your story, make it quick No sugar coating, don't make me sick Go on and tell it like it is Without the icing and no twist Get to the point and give it a push Don't beat around the bush Give it to me straight up Jack, straight up Jack I won't cut you no slack Just give it to me, just give it to me straight up Jack Full strength, get to the truth Gimme that hundred proof Give it to me straight up Jack, straight up Jack Gimme that stack Just give it to me, just give it to me straight up Jack Straight up Jack, now show me that rack Just give it to me, just give it to me straight up Jack 12. Southside Of Hell
There is road to perdition
And it's paved with souls Marked with age-old traditions And lined with ancient scrolls You know the quest for redemption Is an uphill climb It's a bone of contention Take one step at a time Just a spark in the night A star in the distance Between what's black and white Throughout all existence It's a long road to Heaven From the Southside of Hell It's a long road to Heaven Just trying to break that spell Come on, all you people Now's the time to fly On your wings as the eagles Right through the needle's eye Just a spark in the night A star in the distance It's a search for the light Throughout all existence It's a long road to Heaven From the Southside of Hell It's a long road to Heaven Got to break that spell It's a long road to Heaven From the Southside of Hell It's a long road to Heaven Just trying to break that spell It's a long road to Heaven From the Southside of Hell A long road to Heaven Just trying to break that spell |
