I see the young boys, they're standing so proud
In their brand new uniform I hear their tough voices, no doubt allowed For god and country they storm And then they're marching in that war, into death They catch the bullet with their heads All that is left now Is only names carved in stone Forgotten heroes underground Not much is left now Some rusty nails, some rotten bones The dead heroe's names carved in stone The politician lives in a white house The boys have tents in the mud He's getting richer with weapons and oil While the young men give their blood And the deceivers will salute at the graves Of those betrayed 'bout their own lives All that is left now Is only names carved in stone Forgotten heroes underground Not much is left now Some rusty nails, some rotten bones The dead heroe's names carved in stone You won't survive! No one survived! 02. Drop Dead!
Sometimes I'm pretending about being something else
'Cause I cannot stand it anymore Misanthropy might not work but I can't help myself Human kind is rotten to the core Evolution's dead, go back to hell Demolition man, we're all to blame Root it out - drop dead This could be a better world Go away - drop dead Root it out - drop dead May return a better man Go away - drop dead Have you ever thought of how good nature runs itself This world doesn't need one of our rules Everyone just swallows till a perfect thing is dead The most stupid's king of all the fools Evolution's dead, go back to hell Demolition man, we're all to blame Root it out - drop dead This could be a better world Go away - drop dead Root it out - drop dead May return a better man Go away - drop dead 03. Gentle Murders
Dirty is the road to fame
Plastered with unlucky victims Deadly if you get the blame focused on you You can play your games with fear Manipulate all around you You want all, that's why you're here, so come what may Win or lose, get rid of those who're in your way (Make a stone out of your heart) Win or lose, so stab the knife and fake a smile (while you sell wrong for right) Put a foot into that door Get in charge, start pulling the strings Show no mercy to the poor that crawl for you In position you're immune No one stops you, theres no frontier Now you're licenced for the kill, smile anyway Win or lose, get rid of those who're in your way (Make a stone out of your heart) Win or lose, so stab the knife and fake a smile (while you sell wrong for right) Gentle murders mark your way Awful and unpunished Gentle murderers get away You'd be caught and locked away if you weren't elected Gentle murders get away 04. Open My Grave
No, this door is not allowed, the pharaoh
Lies beneath these stonewalls You, get off my pyramid, you gotta go Don't, don't you disturb me I used to rule all the land, I was god on earth Never I'll match in your plan Go, or you'll be cursed Death, you'll meet infernal death for a sacrilege Hey, now let me warn you Cursed you'll be for all your days If you open up my grave Let me sleep beyond decay Never open up my grave Wrath will follow you through time, no way to hide Die by strange diseases If you step into my world you'll lose your life Like all other thieves You're in my pallace of death, from the other side How can you mess with the dead, this is suicide Here it's not for mortal men, you gotta know When it's time to turn back Cursed you'll be for all your days If you open up my grave Let me sleep beyond decay Never open up my grave I was once like you before Never showed respect for no one around But those days would end and it was too late to learn Cursed you'll be for all your days If you open up my grave Let me sleep beyond decay Never open up my grave 05. Without You
Days passing by while you're wasting your time
You're living your life without you What you protect is what you reject You're living your life without you I can see you, I can feel you But what I learn to know makes me sad You're so far away, you are lead astray All that fear made you hard, made you mad Days passing by,while you're wasting your time You're living your life without you What you protect is what you reject You're living your life without you I could heal you, I could lead you From your world that's in darkness and pain Can you see me, can you hear me I'm your self that you never have known Days passing by while you're wasting your time You're living your life without you What you protect is what you reject You're living your life without you You're living your life without you? 06. Long Hard Road
You better pack your things to go
'Cause when it's time you never know You better be aware that nothing's gonna last for long So long Nobody else can help you out, it's up to you It won't be easy, don't allow the swamp to swallow you What once was right can soon be wrong, you got to know Don't stick too long to yesterday, you can't stay Where do we go from here Where do we go What do we know right here This is a long hard road Another day to start and try Another night to end and die So many hours in between that come and go, stand by Goodbye There is a bridge across the abyss of your fear A hand that leads you through the dark when it comes over you Your love inside, the inner flame, that's why you're here The only thing that will remain forever Where do we go from here Where do we go We gotta go right here This is a long hard road 07. One Step Ahead
I know, some will hate my guts
'Cause I'm telling the truth They'll deny me 'cause I am exposing their rules, nothing but fools Scared of possibilities That life laid down to their knees Uncontrolled, unguaranteed Change is now and it is clear Nature works this way, my dear Just the moment is for real Heads up, you fools! Someone controls your head, man Heads up, you fools! Someone's controlling you Can you feel it in the air Life's eternal, everywhere Free yourself and be one step ahead I'm confessing to no one To no father and no son Free inside we'll be one step ahead There are those who live in fear Don't know what else to do They're unable to believe, going nowhere, never they dare All these people have their gods Their religion tells them what They are not allowed to do Heads up, you fools! Someone controls your head, man Heads up, you fools! Someone's controlling you Can you feel it in the air Life's eternal, everywhere Free yourself and be one step ahead I'm confessing to no one To no father and no son Free inside we'll be one step ahead 08. Lost In The Void
War and murder, starving homeless people
Greed and hate, just take a look around Dying land, a circle of destruction Everybody steals from everyone I am not a fool, what I say is the truth for all Play against the rule and try to find a way I don't want to be here Lost in the void Condemned and destroyed I'm lost in the void I don't want to be here Lost in the void Mislead and annoyed I'm lost in the void I don't want to be like this In this world there is a lot confusion Everybody has a different view But there is a life beyond illusions Can you take responsibility I am not a fool, I know how I can turn around Play against the rule and try to find a way I don't want to be here Lost in the void Condemned and destroyed I'm lost in the void I don't want to be here Lost in the void Mislead and annoyed I'm lost in the void I don't want to be like this 09. Mouth Of Greed
Hey you, you wanna know what time it is
You could say it's too late for you, that's how it is It's the time of the superhuman intellectual And we learn how to switch our hearts off Get it while we can Into the mouth of greed A demon hard to feed No way to turn away You're in the mouth of greed Into the mouth of greed Just satisfy your needs Too hard to turn away You're in the mouth of greed We know that all we have is more we need We think success is when we can compete And we vote for our leaders and we let them rape our land In the name of our stupid life style Get it while we can Into the mouth of greed A demon hard to feed No way to turn away You're in the mouth of greed Into the mouth of greed Just satisfy your needs Too hard to turn away You're in the mouth of greed It's the time when the supermodel meets her superman They will learn how to switch their hearts off Get it while they can Into the mouth of greed A demon hard to feed No way to turn away You're in the mouth of greed Into the mouth of greed Just satisfy your needs Too hard to turn away You're in the mouth of greed 10. Lord Of The Flies
This world's following to the dark lord of the flies
So lost, set in this world, this island here in space We've found a way to bring it down It took us ages to become what we are now But progress seems to turn around This world's following to the dark lord of the flies We're lost, morality's a long forgotten term Just ego shooters run this place Where is the glue to hold together what we had Society does miss a lace Here comes the lord of flies That lead the world astray No more the sun will shine However you may pray Here comes the lord of flies Takes innocence away We won't find back for sure (no more) We're going down this way [Narration:] The lord of flies speaks in the hearts of those Who lost all their love and compassion Shameless in unending greed they rape the land And steal from the world 'till our last sigh is made This world's following to the dark lord of the flies Here comes the lord of flies That lead the world astray No more the sun will shine However you may pray Here comes the lord of flies Takes innocence away We won't find back for sure (no more) We're going down this way No more, we wouldn't learn, like actors on a stage The final curtain's 'bout to fall Yes, evil's in ourself, our choice is always wrong 'Cause we forgot where we came from |
