Better run from the wicked maiden, she's a war machine
She strikes without a warning, bring you to your knees Her realm is filled with fire, across the battlefield I see the death toll rising, a wound that never heals Can you see it? Can you feel it? Don't believe it? Think you're dreaming? Runaway! You want to wake from this chilling nightmare, but you're not asleep Stories tell of mutilation, enough to make you weep In the name of an old religion or free democracy Many soldiers falling under the sword of fallacy In the heat of the confrontation, better say you're prayers For the dawn of a new salvation, death is everywhere Can you see it? Can you feel it? Don't believe it? Think you're dreaming? Runaway, from the wicked maiden Runaway from the deadly war machine Runaway from the evil monster Runaway from the one who makes you scream Wicked maiden! Runaway, from the wicked maiden Hideaway from the deadly war machine Runaway from the evil monster Hideaway from the one that makes you bleed 02. Last Of A Dying Breed
I am the one
You can see the fear inside their eyes Break into the morning show, crime is rising Bringing you the video, people dying No one knows what's going on, children hiding Streets are like a battle zone, widow's crying I must face all my enemies Protect and defend what is mine I will fight until victory For I am the one, the last of a dying breed Life and death is on the edge, hope is fading People jumping from the ledge, suffocating Keep alert and watch your back, retribution Under siege under attack, no solution Eyes of fear, a dying nation Chaos rules, you feel the frustration No one's safe, a broken system Stand my ground, I won't be a victim I must face all my enemies Protect and defend what is mine I will fight until victory For I am the one, the last of a dying breed I won't live in fear I must face all my enemies Protect and defend what is mine I will fight until victory For I am the one, I'm under the gun I must face all my enemies Protect and defend what is mine I will fight until victory For I am the one, the last of a dying breed 03. Weapons of Mass Distortion
Oh no, don't tell me your lies!
Weapons of mass distortion, images and words Slanted observations, truth is never heard Opinions and conclusions that are lacking in the facts Speculation junkies feel the monkey on their back You can see what you want to see You will hear what you want to hear Weapons of mass distortion Weapons of mass distortion Political agenda, intelligent design Imaginary data trying to write the script assigned Optimistic dreamers, prophets of the polls No scientific evidence so the surveys bought and sold You can say what you want to say That don't mean I will buy today Can you really believe anything you hear talking through your radio? I don't buy it! Can you believe everything you see coming through your TV screen? Weapons of mass distortion, media control Spinning every story trying to manipulate my world Stepping up all the drama, never really know the score Ratings week, better shock and awe, then dazzle me some more Weapons of mass distortion, coming through your TV screen Weapons of mass distortion, talking through the radio Weapons of mass distortion, headlines sell the magazines Weapons of mass distortion 04. Garden Of Eden
Cursed and over-rated, and you will burn in hell
So stay away from the reaper and run from his ringing bell Don't you play with his fire and light yourself ablaze Climb up to salvation and ride out of the grave I see the world and it's empty Paradise lost from the sin of a man In the garden of Eden - There's the devil in disguise Garden of Eden - Standing right before your eyes In the garden of Eden - There's a snake inside the grass Garden of Eden - And you're gonna taste the wrath Burning in the seduction, lying to yourself Think your doing justice, feed your money well Judgment Day is coming, lightning hailing down Flee from the rage of heaven cause time is running out I see the world, it's so empty Paradise lost from the sin of a man In the garden of Eden - There's the devil in disguise Garden of Eden - Staring right into your eyes In the garden of Eden - There's a snake inside the grass Garden of Eden - And you're gonna face the wrath In the garden of Eden, in the Garden of Eden In the garden of Eden - There's the devil in disguise Garden of Eden - Standing right before your eyes In the garden of Eden - There's a snake inside the grass Garden of Eden - And you're gonna taste the wrath 05. The Vision
I see the lightning strike as it shoots across the sky
I hear the thunder roll as it shakes the earth inside Bringing down the wrath of God for the sins of Babylon All eyes on the Son of Man as he steps down from the clouds Send us to oblivion, shake the hand of wrath Now I'm ready to die - for my conviction Fight - my opposition Cry - in my affliction tonight You know I'm ready to die - it's my decision Fight - the inquisition Cry - for my submission tonight Now I'm ready to die - in my confession Fight - it's my obsession Cry - for my transgression tonight You know I'm ready to die - in this condition Fight - for my position Cry - I see the vision tonight Built upon the sacrifice of the ones who came before Laying down the cornerstone of the Word forevermore Our days are numbered as we spin out of control Compromise and little white lies can't purify the soul Send us to oblivion, shake the hand of wrath Now I'm ready to die - for my conviction Fight - my opposition Cry - in my affliction tonight You know I'm ready to die - it's my decision Fight - the inquisition Cry - for my submission tonight Now I'm ready to die - in my confession Fight - it's my obsession Cry - for my transgression tonight You know I'm ready to die - in this condition Fight - for my position Cry - I see the vision tonight 06. Eyes Of An Angel
Lying on the floor from a shot in the heart
Spinning from the lies and a life in the dark Messing with my mind, I could barely see Just another lesson that I did not need Then the sky just opened up and she was standing there All my fears just turned to hope again [Chorus:] She's got the eyes of an angel (eyes) Lifting me higher than I ever dreamed Eyes of an angel (angel) Taking ma places that I never knew She's got the eyes of an angel (eyes) Lost in your heaven, can this be true? Eyes of an angel (angel ) Finding the reason to believe again Now my world can open up because she is standing there All my fears just turned to hope again [Chorus] 07. High School Revolution
Eight O'clock sharp and the bell has rung
School doors open and my mind goes numb Too many teachers, too many rules Too many texts on my cell phone too Books and papers, pencils and pens, Math and science just ain't my friend I need a life, it's a waste of my day To hear you babble for my stinkin' grade Got my eyes full of coming attractions Don't you know it's a major distraction Can't learn nothing in this place I think I know just what I need Hi-School Revolution, ring the bell I got nothing to lose No more thought pollution, I don't care about your stupid rules Don't lecture me about your history, Cause when I leave you know I can't even read Standing in the check in for security Pass the little wand from my head to my feet I get inside - got an attitude Dealing with the crazies and the bangers too Teacher looking with seductive eyes Someone's got a gun - cut em' down to size I need a nap to take my FCAT score Pop another quiz and now I'm really bored Got my eyes full of coming attractions Don't you know it's a major distraction Can't learn nothing in this place I think I know just what I need Hi-School Revolution, fire drill get me out of here No more thought pollution, juvenile delinquent atmosphere Hi-School Revolution, learning nothing cause I'm A.D.D. No more mind delusion, Don't fill my head with your apologies Tell me! How do you spell that? Hi-School Revolution, ring the bell I got nothing to lose No more thought pollution, I don't care about your stupid rules Don't lecture me about your history, Cause when I leave you know I can't even read Hi-School Revolution, fire drill get me out of here No more thought pollution, juvenile delinquent atmosphere Hi-School Revolution, learning nothing cause I'm A.D.D. No more mind delusion, don't fill my head with your apologies 08. Wonderful Life
Here I stand watching you, thinking you got it all
Super job, Cadillacs, a mansion for a house Diamond rings, fancy clothes, expensive restaurants Living high on credit cards and you love to show it off I see your wonderful life, it sure looks better than mine You rent the American dream and now you're a slave to the lie Little man, dressed to kill, pretend you got the life Mercedes Benz, three years lease, but you can't pay the price Look at you, big rock star, living above the crowd But fantasy is all it is when you're walking tall and proud Time will come to pay your debt and taste reality But no one's there to stop and stare, you're living in a dream I see your wonderful life, is it really better than mine? You rent the American dream and now you're a slave to the lie I see your beautiful life, it looks like you've got it all Seems like it's a wonderful life but you're headed for a fall Such a wonderful life Such a beautiful life It's a wonderful life I see your wonderful life, is it really better than mine? You rent the American dream and now you're a slave to the lie I see your beautiful life, it looks like you've got it all Seems like it's a wonderful life but you're headed for a fall I see your wonderful life, it ain't no better than mine Slave to the American dream, someday you will pay the price I see your wonderful life 09. Holy Man
Carry the burden and conquer the grave
Walking through darkness on the road that was paved Breaking the power and the shackles of death Rising to life on the words that you said Out in the desert you faced it alone, temptation that comes from the foe Blessing the weak and then healing the poor, There's no place that you can call home Warning the masses, the kingdom is at hand Coming in power, the end of the age, The one that they call "Son of Man" He walks among the dead, the Holy Man He sits upon the throne, the Holy Man You can't deny the Christ anymore He rose so high above the law The Holy Man will come again The wrath of God ,the end of the age Born of a virgin foretold in the past Fulfilling the words that the sages forecast Cursing the devil and the demons of night Bringing salvation to the children of light Miracle man on a mission of love Showing the signs from above Political rivals and skeptical eyes Spreading their lies to corrupt He walks among the dead, The Holy Man He sits upon the throne, The Holy man You can't deny the Christ anymore He rose so high above the law The Holy Man will come again The wrath of God, the end of the age Holy Man 10. Battle Rages
You never see it coming, but you can read the writing on the wall
Purity to corruption, a thought begins but soon the flesh will fall Jealousy and anger, an evil heart no one can ever know In the winds of deception, you hold the line against the flow On an on since the dawn of all creation An endless game, it's the conflict of the ages In the war between good and evil The battle rages on In the fight between light and darkness The armor must be strong In this world of confusion, the hand is always quicker than the eye A spirit of delusion, you justify your conscience with your mind Just like Cain and Abel, or like Mother Theresa, Genghis Khan One extreme to another, the pendulum is swinging hard On and on since the dawn of all creation An endless game, it's the conflict of the ages In the war between good and evil The battle rages on In the fight between light and darkness The armor must be strong In the war between good and evil The battle rages on There's a line between light and darkness That crosses every realm |
