Overkill - Taking Over lyrics



Tracks



01. Deny The Cross

I'll steal your life and cut, out your heart.
Rip the core of your, world apart.
Then I'll, Take your sight.
Leave ya blind.
Laughing hard as you, loose your mind.
Smash in your skull!
Kick out your brains!
Dance all over!
What remains!

Life! The living danger,
Death! The welcome stranger,
In sin! You deny the cross.

Deny the cross!

I'm an angel I'm, virgin white.
This only happens, every night.
Restitution, for my sin,
Imprisoned virtue, time begins.
Killer instincts!
Escape my find!
Path of destruction!
Left behind.

Life, it walks away
It walks today
It fades away
Death, is here to stay
Is here today
To deny the cross!

Draw and quarter, slice the meat.
Now there's something, more to eat.
Nothing left there is, just a frame.
This poor soul, has no name.
Back to dirt!
Six feet deep!
I take a breath!
Long and deep!

Deny the cross!

02. Wrecking Crew

Ain't no job too big or small,
Just one sweep of the wreckin' ball.
Put 'em up, we'll knock 'em down,
Or knock 'em up, then leave town.
Demolition of the mind.
Desolation, left behind.
Light the fuse, dynamite.
Light the sky! in the night!

We will walk!
All over you!
'Cause we are!
The wreckin'! Wreckin' crew!
We are the wreckin' crew.

Wreckin' crew!
We are the wreckin' crew.

Destruction is a way life.
Destruction, mayhem, havoc, strife.
Crack a smile, here the sound.
Watch 'em crumble to the ground.
Innocence ain't no excuse,
Slip your neck inside the noose.
Pay in blood I demand,
The wreckin' crew is outta hand.

We'll wreck your neck!
Wreckin' crew!
Get wrecked!

Turn to ashes, turn to dust.
We're the ones that you can trust.
Evil smile, wicked grin,
Tear it down, begin to sin.
Think that you will end it all,
There's no one left to ball or call.
When there ain't nothin' left to do,
Call upon, the wreckin' crew!

We'll wreck your neck!
Wreckin' crew!
Yer wreck!
Ah! Wreckin' crew!
Wreck! Wreck!

03. Fear His Name

On judgement day, the moon lights the way.
And those with open eyes will see
Hail the avenger, midnight defender.
The end will never be.
You look to the light.
Dawn of a new day.
Hail the avenger.
He who lights the way.

Away with your fear, I've cried all my tears,
Delevered from the night...
Hail the avenger, laughing at danger.
Shed blood, bring life.
If you live by the sword,
You die by the sword.
All hail! the avenger,
Accept our new lord.

The defeated lay, lifeless in the pit.
His face reflects the horror of his victems in tenfold.
A death of deaths,
All evil fear his name!
Struck down, by a man!
His severed limbs ooze oceans of our blood.
Man stands, oh knee deep, within..!
Paused to scream, this is not a sin,
I have done your will, I've delivered.
From this day forth, known as the avenger

Guarding the weak, and those who seek,
Asylum from a world of wrong!
Hail! the avenger, midnight defender.
Silent bold and strong.
You echo our cry, so ends war.
All hail! the avenger.
Victory hour
Ooo, Victory ours.

Our vengeance recall, those starting to fall.
Oh victory hour!

04. Use Your Head

Set in overdrive, makin' money on the side.
Lookin' for some dirty action.
Leave 'em on the floor,
Leave 'em wantin' more.
Use it for the prime reaction.

Workin' like a dog,
Tired cold, and bored.
Stimulate me to satisfaction.
Alcohol and sluts,
Pull me from my rut,
Second only to the attraction.

You! Got a lot to learn.
Your head's up your ass!
You! Got a lot to learn.
You got no class.

No class.

Take me to the top, never never stop.
So pretty what's your name, where ya from.
I see you like the band,
Don't leave me with my hand,
Stick around I'll throw you a bone.

No class.

Crack another beer, sit on over here.
What I need I can't do alone.
Think that I'm in love, sittin' in your glove,
What's your name, here I come out, I'm done.

Why don't you use your head.

05. Fatal If Swallowed

Lust is the fire which warms you in the night.
Scorching the edge of your soul.
I am desire, your eyes are filled with light.
Pleasing the master your goal.
Like a fly! to a spider, against my web you fight.
My poison dousing your flame.
Call on the liar, to fill the hole with light.
Your feelings went as I came.

Fatal if swallowed, my love's too much to hold.
A deadly poison, a hot and heavy load.
Fatal if swallowed, a love you can't resist.
Another beleiver, sealed, with a kiss.

Animal attraction, the numbing of your flesh,
No reason to let this action wait.
Your physical convultions, the quiver of your lips,
Open up, ahh! take the bait.
You taste it, revolting, wishing you were dead,
The effect you'll never grow old.
Oozing slime, foaming at the mouth,
So dizzy! the poison takes its toll.

No protection. forced injection.
Feel the bite. feel the sting.
No detection. slow infection.
Now you know what good lovin' brings.

Are you a believer, or are you just a corpse,
A worm eaten mass of disgust.
Yeah I'm a deceiver, the reaper a letch,
The reason your driven by lust.
But your not the first, you won't be the last.
I lead, others will follow.
No mercy, forgiveness, no begging for repreive,
My venom, fatal if swallowed!

Ooo with a kiss.
Fatal. Kiss this.

Open up wide, I'm cummin' inside.

06. Powersurge

Leave... don't try.
They die to get inside.
A falling out, between you and your pride.
No... don't go.
There's something you should know.
This blinding light, can tear apart your soul.
Shattered dreams.
Are not all that they seem.
The light can change from white to blue to green.
Left to right.
There's power in the night.
And the powersurge,
Driven by the light!

Power! building up,
Power! all around you,
Power! you feel it.
Power! a powersurge!

Stay... away.
There's something I must say.
This light reduces all that's in it's way.
In... the dark.
Ignited by a spark.
A fire burns, a fire makes its mark!
See the flash.
A mountain turns to ash.
Recollection, echos of the past.
Right to left,
Power's what you get.
And the powersurge,
Isn't over yet!

Power! building up,
Power! it's coming back,
Power! feel it.
Power! powersurge!

Coming out of the sun.
There are battles to be won.
Colors change from blue to red.
Forgotten heros, piles of dead.
A mass of steel, down in flame.
Powersurge remains the same.
Comandeer turns to dust,
The mass of steel begins to rust...

Power! building up,
Power! coming back,
Power! in the air!.
Power! a powersurge!

07. In Union We Stand

From the islands to the cities, from the ports into the sea.
We are strong, we will always be.
Blazing through the wreckage, burning all we see.
The life we lead, committed to be free.
Our union is a fortress!
Together we are bound.
A common bound in freedom, and in sound!
So raise your voices high!
For miles around to hear.
Let them know, we are drawing near.

In union we stand,
As they! blaze across the land!
In union, we make a final stand.

A peaceful co-existance, is droping out of sight.
So band together, together we will fight.
Blasting the resistance, marching to the top.
They started this, we say when it stops.
Strike fear within their hearts!
Strike down those in your way.
Let them know, that we live, today!
They throw us into flames,
Did not hear our cries.
But now, from the ashes we arise.

08. Electro-Violence

Watch the circle, dehumanize.
Fuck the world, stay outside.
You tread on me and you will find,
That you flirt with death before your time.

Face the music and the time has come!
Into the circle!
Electroviolence.

Violence! Electroviolence.

Keep your distance, subdivide.
Do not enter, conservative type.
Sweaty bodies, bodily harm.
Abuse thy neighbour, thats the charm.

Blood! shed on everyone.
Don't mistake, violence for fun.
Blood! guilty fashion fiend,
What you here for, you don't fit in!

Take the shot, take the pain.
Rebound! back again,
Uncivilized reaction appeals to me.
No restraints face reality.

Never victim, always vice.
Taking charge, desensitized.
Do unto others, stay unbowed.
You social misfit, you're one of us now.

Violence! Hey! violence!
Electroviolence!

09. Overkill II (The Nightmare Continues)

Strangled in this knot of sin,
He returns, again begins.
Again to bend, and tear the will.
A witness to this Overkill!

Awaken! Awaken in me,
Through my eyes! through my eyes you will see,
What is real, what is to be.
All the madness, madness in me.

You taste the blood that I long for,
Regain my strength and complete my chore!

Like a serpent!, poised to strike.
Like the moon... that, fills the night.
You, the question, answer they cried.
You've always been destined to ride.

Passion rests in an empty will,
The nightmare continues.

Into the night!
A rider goes then disappears,
Out! of the light.
He reappears again.
Beware!
One eye does follow you.
To kill again!
And again!

Slow and sure, a beating heart.
Is sure to have, the killing starts
The beating stops, fin de la vie.
Overkill rides again!

A killer like no man,
A faster death, by one's own hand.
Safety comes, when the wind is still.
This the legend, Overkill!
