Crossed bars out the door
Stubborn run out through the town Crawl cross beyond control This body's gonna take you down Move over till you walk Black boulder will spit you out Spend with me till the morn' I'll tell you what it's all about Wretched time! Cross bar, over head Keep 'em through the air No time, no escape, caught through the stare Still wear the parachute, drag you in the depth I'll plant you in the soil And serve you just pedets So loud! It's the end of the line You breed your kind But you wasted your breath (Stampede!) Trapped into the ground (Stampede!) Flattened by the sound (Stampede!) Burn you on the stove (Stampede!) And pulverize your grounds! You're gone and disappeared through the bloody swerve Jab you, round you down to a moshpit straight from hell Neck you out the throne, rearrange your face And when you bottom out, it's a long way down from grace So loud! It's the end of the line You breath your? But don't waste your breath! You'll never win! (Stampede!) Trapped into the ground (Stampede!) Flattened by the sound (Stampede!) Burn you on the stove (Stampede!) And pulverize your grounds! Crossed bars out the door Stubborn run out through the town Crawl cross beyond control This body's gonna take you down Move over till you walk Black boulder will spit you out Spend with me till the morn' I'll tell you what it's all about Wretched time! Cross bar, over head Keep 'em through the air No time, no escape, caught through the stare Still wear the parachute, drag you in the depth I'll plant you in the soil And serve you just pedets So loud! It's the end of the line You breed your kind [?] But you wasted your breath (Stampede!) Trapped into the ground (Stampede!) Flattened by the sound (Stampede!) Burn you on the stove (Stampede!) And pulverize your grounds! You're gone and disappeared through the bloody swerve Jab you, round you down to a moshpit straight from hell Neck you out the throne, rearrange your face And when you bottom out, it's a long way down from grace So loud! It's the end of the? You breath your? But don't waste your breath! You'll never win! (Stampede!) Trapped into the ground (Stampede!) Flattened by the sound (Stampede!) Burn you on the stove (Stampede!) And pulverize your grounds! 02. Dying Breed
Once upon a midnight, the metal flag was raised
Long ago a sabbath black cut through the purple haze Upon a silver mountain a message loud and clear Screaming with a vengeance that we will forever hear They're the pride of our ages In their anthems we trust Like denim and leather And diamonds and rust Here's to...the rocking warriors Here's to...our heroes and friends And those who've gone before us We're loyal straight 'til the end They're The Last of a Dying Breed And we salute you The Last of a Dying Breed The zeppelin led it's voyage thru skies of purple deep The guillotine come crashing down and heads rolled in the streets And in a land down under highway to hell was paved An iron fist cut the deck and drew the ace of spades They're the pride of our ages In their anthems we trust It's metal to metal And dust to dust 03. Dark Side Of My Heart
There's a space in the darkness, where a fire still burns
It's beyond a reason, past point of no return There's a hunger that's calling, and the fever runs wild It's where the light throws shadows on the thoughts of every child Deep within this hallowed chamber where two worlds collide If you open up the door, don't cross the line You know it's tearing me apart, this is the dark side of my heart And I knew it from the start, there in the dark side of my heart Just a slave to the shadows, just a pawn in the game Drawn to the slaughter like a moth before a flame It's the good and the evil, walking side by side You can feel it coming, but there is no place to hide Tell me all your darkest secrets and I'll tell you mine Open up the door but don't cross the line You know it's tearing me apart, this is the dark side of me heart And I knew it from the start, here in the dark side of my heart There's an ager on my shoulder, but the devils whisper in my ear It's the battle old as time itself A taunt that never disappears Tell me all your darkest secrets and I'll tell you mine Open up the door but don't cross the line You know it's tearing me apart, this is the dark side of my heart And I knew it from the start, there in the dark side of my heart 04. Fall Of The Empire
Can you remember how it used to be
We were so proud and free, so free Strong and mighty powerful and true Can you remember Now all around us pestilence and greed Famine, hate and war It surrounds us like a black disease Just take a look around us In spite of every upright intention We live and die by the sword It's second nature, and so the question is Can we learn or will we burn The fall of the empire... What have we done The fall of the empire... It's the dawn of the setting sun The fall of the empire... can this race be won It's the fall of the empire... or has the end begun Will the mountains crumble to the ground Will the earth stand still Will we rise a mushroom cloud Will the mountains crumble Can we heed a lesson from the past And put aside our hate Or will we blow ourselves to kingdom come tell me is it too late Inside of every aronination There is hope that lies within It's second nature, and the question is Can we learn or will we burn The fall of the empire... What have we done The fall of the empire... It's the dawn of the setting sun The fall of the empire... can this race be won It's the fall of the empire... or has the end begun 05. Trail Of Tears
Liars and murderers, pale faced intruders
Came one day to our shores Years of deceit and injustice and greed Led to the crimes and the wars Hopelessly wronged, dragged from our homes Placed into stockades Loaded on wagons as cattle or sheep Silently filled with this rage And all through the nights, we sang and we cried holding on dearly What gives you the right to do this Who are the savages now! It's a trail of tears, keep home fires burning We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die Suffering and dying, enduring the cold Oppression without regret Wantonly stealing our land and our gold The Cherokee will not forget And all through the nights, we sang and we cried holding on dearly Four thousand graves along the way Who are the savages now! It's a trail of tears, keep home fires burning We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die It's a trail of tears, for our homes we are yearning We're on a trail of tears, to were dreams go to die 06. Wanna Be Free
Young girl in a darkened room, crying all alone
Forced upon by her captors, so far from her home While in another country, a rich man counts his take He cares not for the lives he ruins Why can't we make a world where there's No more... Human trafficking No more... Hunger and lies No more... Crime and poverty If we would heed the cries and unbind the ties We all wanna be free Break the barricades, open prison gates We all wanna be free Tear down the wall, we want it all We all wanna be free If we all stand together... We're all gonna be free In the scums of LA, a man with a habit dies Needle still hanging in his arms Nobody cares of cries And in a foreign country, a rich man counts his take No remorse for the life he ruins Why can't we make a world where there's No more... Gangs murdering No more... Pushers and lies No more... Crime and poverty If we could heed the cries and rebind the ties We all wanna be free Break the barricades, open prison gates We all wanna be free Tear down the wall, we want it all We all wanna be free If we all stand together... We're all gonna be free 07. 200 Years
Lights out forever, After the final war
Cities reduced to rubble as plant lipe settles the score Bridges and tunnels collapsing, Towers no longer stand A post traumatic Eden where roaches rule the land No more civilization, Only shadows remain No more death or pollution... Population zero Welcome to the stone age, 200 Years after mankind Welcome to the silent scream, The Earth has been reclaimed Welcome to the stone age, 200 Years after mankind A paradise for no one , And no one left to blame Gone are the seven wonders, Pyramids only survive Paradise has been erased, Earth again will thrive Continental glaciers scrape the planet clean Removing any remnants of society No more traffic and madness, No more nuclear power No more new technology... Population zero Welcome to the stone age, 200 Years after mankind Welcome to the silent scream, The Earth has been reclaimed Welcome to the wasteland, 200 Years after mankind A paradise for no one , And no one left to blame 08. Bloodbath Mastermind
Lurking in darkness where no one may go
Hatred breeds in your mind Consciously heartless, blood running cold Your evils begun to unwind Lost in confusion your plotting unfolds Madness starts to take shade Explosions and shootings, out of control The innocent run to escape When all that we care for has gone up in smoke A burnt out horizon remains The last things heard were the curses you spoke And the shots that took you away You're the antimatter, bloodbath mastermind Human antimatter, bloodbath mastermind No one can say why you've taken this path Murder has become your creed Or how you became this psychopath Spawn of the seed The depth of your sickness could not be contained It's now just a story we'll tell All we can hope for is that justice be paid And you serve your sentence in Hell You're the antimatter, bloodbath mastermind Human antimatter, bloodbath mastermind We seek retribution for the crimes But you have taken that away You chose a cowards suicide Could be we're better off this way You're the antimatter 09. From The Ashes We Rise
There's a storm out on the horizon
Blackin' out the day Hell and high water Come to take my world away I can hear the wind blow I can hear the screams and cries Slamming doors, running for cover Praying this rage goes by Now everything we've worked for It's gone in a moments glance I need something to believe I need a second change With injured souls and wounded hands We'll carry on, we'll struggle, we'll rebuild the land We've been knocked down... we'll get up From the ashes we rise We've been kicked around... sure enough We will survive We've been shot down... we'll get up From the ashes we rise Life is so hard... so just get tough We will survive I can see the ruins Of life that used to be Everything has been shot to Hell In this harsh reality Devastation all around us Blood is all I see But with strength, believe and our fellow men We'll meet our destiny With injured souls... 10. The Curse
Why are the world's biggest sinners
Always saints when they're gone? It's all about losers and winners Not about who's right and who is wrong Who's the thief, who's the traitor? Who's the one to save the day? And who will be in the spotlight While the good ones fade away Yes, I realize it's just a fact of life Nothing's ever really free And if I have to I will gladly pay the price We can't escape our destiny It's the curse of being good The curse of doing right It's the curse of being good The curse of doing right The price we pay for our honour No more Mr. Nice Guy No more Mr. Right Should I be like all the others? Should I give up the good fight? This never-ending struggle Has been part of me so long Is it a curse is it a blessing? We know who's right, who is wrong I'm not complaining this is how I lived my life I'll keep my pride my dignity And if I have to I will gladly pay the price You can't cheat your destiny It's the curse of being good The curse of doing right It's the curse of being good The curse of doing right The price we pay for our honour Yes I realize it's just a fact of life Nothing's ever really free And if I have to I will gladly pay the price You can't cheat your destiny It's the curse of being good The curse of doing right It's the curse of being good The curse of doing right The price we pay for our honour It's the curse of being good The curse of doing right 11. Final Journey
A feeling, a presence,
Time is of the essence A fear that you'll be left alone. A warning, a presence, Delivery of a message It's all there in the unknown. Alerting, averting It's all disconcerting Shots ring out from afar. Swerving, observing, The sound is a piercing screech Of a speeding car. It's your final journey. Destination unknown! On your final journey You'll be travelling alone. A pitching and rolling, Sensation controlling You strike while the iron's a glow. Sensing the danger One look from a stranger just passing Somehow you know. It's your final journey. Destination unknown! On your final journey You'll be travelling alone. Urgent, urgent Somehow it's all converging. Your instincts tell you to run Away from the blackness, the fear and the madness. Onward, into the sun. It's your final journey. Destination unknown! On your final journey You'll be travelling alone. |
