Heavy metal wings
Shining in the night Every inch is prepared For kamikaze flight The machines are faster And the bombs are worse As we're all sucked into This unholy curse War is our destiny There's a thousand armies Dressed up with nowhere to go All ready to dance In the final show These men aren't bad men They're like you or me The only thing that's different Is their destiny We both sign treaties And they always die Neither side can give us A good reason why They're always talking louder And now we are too Guess we both bit off More than we could chew 02. White Stallions
Yesterday I saw my face
Pictured in the sky as I gazed upon myself my whole life flashed by I heard the sound of hoofbeats from a thousand angry mares before I could control my thoughts my inner soul was theirs White stallions in my vein White stallions Lord stop me before I go insane Took me to the promised land Where everything is free Looked around and saw my friends laughing loud at me A great stone wall divided us on their side was a dance on my side was endless torture, guess I blew my chance Only time can ease the pain the stallions left behind Tiny hoof prints on my arm Strung out in a line Wish that I could start again and change my evil ways Trapped upon the stallion's back 'till my dying days 03. Mystic Lady
Black smoke rising
From the stain of unearthly charred remains Sweet young maiden Blond and fair Was a witch so we burned her there As she burned she laughed out loud From the sky fell a bloody shroud As we gasped and gazed With astonished eyes Mystic Lady began to rise Nothing grows here any more We painted crucifixes on our doors Mystic Lady's spirit lives We took her life so ours we give 04. Hallow's Victim
Panic in the air
Awaken to the call Ghostly apparitions Making your skin crawl Incense, tambourines Sorcerors arise All you see are pools af blood And fire in their eyes Grinning jack-o-lanterns Lit by candle-light Couldrons bubble over-filled On this night of nights Leather bat-wings Slicing through the air Leaves your body white with shock You're wide-eyed and scared Cross in your hand Time to make your stand Your bravery's fading somehow Garlic 'round your neck Paranoia's got you wrecked You jump at every little sound Boney witches fingers Are scratching at your face Skeletons sit beside you Making your heart race Cold sweat is running Running from your brow You've got a one-way ticket To six feet underground 05. The Sadist
He looked around
Saw nothing Blinked his eyes and he was gone He couldn't cry With his head in his hands He tried to laugh But the tears still ran Well he tried to warn you But you didn't care Then he just shook his head Well he said no more Just faced the wind Glared and he was gone again We had a chance But we let it go We let our dreams change our lives And now every night As you look to the sky Hear his growl 'Cause we've gone much too far 06. Just Friends (Empty Love)
I don't want your empty love
Just leave me alone I have done ok so far Living on my own You said you could give me shelter Underneath your wing But all I ever got from you Was hate and misery Woman You don't want To be Just friends Thought that I could always be there Every time you call Now you seem surprised to find That I'm not there at all Oh you loved the way you had me Pressed beneath your thumb Now I am the one who's laughing My new life's begun My new life is getting stronger Since you've gone away Survival is the only thing That I care for today You showed me the beautiful And ugly sides of love Now I am to roam the earth Bitching what you've done 07. Prayer For The (M)Asses
Everybody wants to know
Where you get off Thinking that you're bad because You praise the dogs Satan's evil you had Better stay away Or else with your stupid soul You will have to pay You wear your crosses upside-down It shows that you're a fool You don't realize What he's got in store for you The flames of hell Burn eternally They never die You must think it will be fun To forever fry You scorn the good book laugh at me Say I am an ass But I'll have the final chuckle When judgement's passed I may not rise right away I am not that pure But I know I won't follow you And that is for sure Prayer for the masses Pray for their asses |
