Methedrine
Benzedrine Nicotine Wash it down with alcohol, your fine and... Amphetamine Dexedrine Caffeine Guess its time to snort another line You're the temple Yourself you deceive The victim who falls to the pleasures of the flesh Only then to be judged by the prophet of lies You're the jury Convicting yourself Sentence the one who's to blame then condemned Then you'll learn that the punishment is twice the crime Cocaine Fast lane Mary Jane Now turn on the ultraviolet light First a red Then a white Nearly dead A hand full of black, you'll sleep tonight You're the temple Yourself you deceive The victim who falls to the pleasures of the flesh Only then to be judged by the prophet of lies You're the jury Convicting yourself Sentence the one who's to blame then condemned Then you'll learn that the punishment is twice the crime Morphine Codeine Thorazine Anything to help anesthetize Lidocaine Inhumane No restrain Take control of the enemy inside You're the temple Yourself you deceive The victim who falls to the pleasures of the flesh Only then to be judged by the prophet of lies You're the jury Convicting yourself Sentence the one who's to blame then condemned Then you'll learn that the punishment is twice the crime 02. Stab
Strive for every drop to soothe the savage need
Thrive, the pleasure, virtility freed Bleed, a tear of blood comes trickling down the face Plead, there's not another moment to waste Stab Annihilate Devastate The weak and the weary will never survive Stab Terminate Eliminate You'll treasure your very moment alive Free from chains of bonded abnormality Flee the lesson of mortality Bear, endure this unholy atrocity Swear, this unexpected calamity Stab Annihilate Devastate The weak and the weary will never survive Stab Terminate Eliminate You'll treasure your very moment alive Face to face with the supreme authority Taste the flavor of the fatality Seal the fate of every entity on Earth Feel the purity of creations birth Stab Annihilate Devastate The weak and the weary will never survive Stab Terminate Eliminate You'll treasure your very moment alive 03. This
Release, I grant you permission
Immerse, submerse, submerge and rise Emerge to snatch one's last breath Hydra-lung will deaden the cries It is time to make the transition You were never one to abide Absurdly ignored premonition Now let the struggle subside This - the knife that has skewered my heart This - the flowing river of blood This - the morbid thought in my head This - the crimson stain in my bed My heart bleeds for your confession The truth, the youth, a kiss goodbye To covet the lasting impression The river's slaughter swallows your pride The current consumes the almighty I must confess the tide will soon rise Drowning your thoughts of escape How foolish of you to surmise This - the knife that has skewered my heart This - the flowing river of blood This - the morbid thought in my head This - the crimson stain in my bed This thing that crawls from inside me Expanding, stretching my sanity This - way things have to turn out to be There's no sun, left in your eyes to see... This Emotion spill into the river Flowing, drifting from side to side Clutch the offering hand of the Reaper As you become the pale River Bride This - the knife that has skewered my heart This - the flowing river of blood This - the morbid thought in my head This - the crimson stain in my bed This - way things have to turn out to be There's no sun, left in your eyes to see... This This This 04. Killing On Monroe Street
There's a killing on Monroe Street
It happened right before my eyes With deadly action Come satisfaction And you can hear the victims cries Happens all the time Every night and day If you hang on Monroe Street You might get blown away Happens all the time Every night and day If you hang on Monroe Street You might get blown away There's a riot Down on Jackson The raging angry mob you fear Deadly axe licks Double bass kicks It's an assault upon the ears Happens all the time Every night and day If you hang on Monroe Street You might get blown away Happens all the time Every night and day If you hang on Monroe Street You might get blown away There's a killing on Monroe Street It happened right before my eyes With deadly action Come satisfaction And you can hear the victims cries Happens all the time Every night and day If you hang on Monroe Street You might get blown away Happens all the time Every night and day If you hang on Monroe Street You might get blown away 05. King With The Axe
Like a viper
Your blood will flow upon his strike Like all the others Young and old alike Time is running out There's no one left to hear you shout Time is running out Not who he used to be The man behind the mystery He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe Like a buzz saw He's gonna cut you up on sight You turn around and There's no chance left, too late to fight Time is running out There's no one left to hear you shout Time is running out Not who he used to be The man behind the mystery He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe A bloody rampage Merciless onslaught in the night Another victim The executioner's delight Time is running out There's no one left to hear you shout Time is running out Not who he used to be The man behind the mystery He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe He's coming at you Full force The king with the axe He's gonna chop you down 06. Strike Me Blind
[instrumental]
07. Memory Serves
Window of destiny
Slams shut on the hand of trust Fate sealed in misery Eternity to readjust Yesterday's memory Swarmed with desire and lust A black cloud hangs over your head Tomorrow hangs by a thread Only my memory serves Captured by this war of nerves Forever is merely tomorrow Watching you savor my wine With every taste, I admire Intimacy of sighs Sharing the heat of the fire My life is incomplete Yet memories motivate and inspire A black cloud hangs over your head Tomorrow hangs by a thread Only my memory serves Captured by this war of nerves Forever is merely tomorrow A black cloud hangs over your head Tomorrow hangs by a thread Only my memory serves Captured in this war of nerves Forever by merely tomorrow 08. Resurrection Chair
A pounding migraine
Frantic search to find a cure Desperation How much more can you endure? How would you know? The cure would be so risky A double dose of death Washed down with a glass of whisky There's no escaping The resurrection chair There's no escaping The resurrection chair Psychotic killer Not afraid of homicide Feed the victim A double dose of cyanide Without warning An unsuspecting swallow Your life will flash before your eyes There will be no tomorrow There's no escaping The resurrection chair There's no escaping The resurrection chair A pounding migraine Frantic search to find a cure Desperation How much more can you endure? How would you know? The cure would be so risky A double dose of death Washed down with a glass of whisky There's no escaping The resurrection chair There's no escaping The resurrection chair There's no escaping The resurrection chair Resurrection chair Chair! 09. House With No Doors
My nails have scraped the paint from the walls
Peeled every inch off of the surface Scratched clean through the messages in blood I'm still left here trapped in this black circus The key is in your mind The soul shall never leave Down on my hands and knees, crawling with doubt Sanity prevails, those days are over Giving in, convinced there's no way out Say goodbye, like a lamb left for slaughter The key is in your mind The soul shall never leave The soul shall always be locked The soul shall never breathe Forever in this house.... Forever in this house.... With no doors Innocently led into the dark By a pale hand that appeared before my eyes For every one reason to live I have found two reasons to die The key is in your mind The soul shall never leave The soul shall always be locked The soul shall never breathe Forever in this house.... With no doors 10. Trash 'Til Death
We like it faster than lightning
We'll have it no other way So fast that it can get frightening Thrash it out day after day Never enough satisfaction Can't get the Marshall's past ten Live in the heat of the action Metal divides mice from men No compromise we will thrash 'til death Feel the drums pounding like thunder Guitar riffs cut through the air Casting a spell you'll be under Thrashing 'til death unaware Metal will flow through your bloodstream Take over your body and mind You'll never stop your headbanging Raising your fists to the sky No compromise we will thrash 'til death We like it faster than lightning We'll have it no other way So fast that it can get frightening Thrash it out day after day Never enough satisfaction Can't get the Marshall's past ten Live in the heat of the action Metal divides mice from men No compromise we will thrash 'til death Thrash 'til death! 11. Nails In Me Deep
A question of honour and integrity
Belief in the privilege of equality Determination and presence of mind The greatest justice in all mankind The day that the masses have authority We will be lead by the majority Escape from the grip held by those who betray With passion to seize the American Way The Truth Betrayed The Free Enslaved Never Stop Fighting There's freedom to reap Forever loyal Nails in me deep Never Stop Fighting There's freedom to reap Forever loyal Nails in me deep I must tell you something I think you should know Maintain a firm grip and there's no letting go The gift of freedom called democracy Certainly has it's nails dug deep in me You're stripped of salvation, won't you recognize The diplomatic defamation paralyze Deprived of rights and raped of dignity Oppression, suppression and tyranny The Truth Betrayed The Free Enslaved Never Stop Fighting There's freedom to reap Forever loyal Nails in me deep Never Stop Fighting There's freedom to reap Forever loyal Nails in me deep A question of honour and integrity Belief in the privilege of equality Determination and presence of mind The greatest justice in all of mankind The day that the masses have authority We will be lead by the majority Escape from the grip held by those who betray With passion to seize the American Way The Truth Betrayed The Free Enslaved Never Stop Fighting There's freedom to reap Forever loyal Nails in me deep Never Stop Fighting There's freedom to reap Forever loyal Nails in me deep |
