Warhead - hear the thunder roar
Warhead - unite the lightning whore
Power burning - hell and man
Raging torment - take my hand
Frenzied motions - reach your soul
Dance the warhead - fast of slow
Born of thunder
Raised by fire
Call the heavens
By desire
Screaming furnace - death of life
Demons calling - chosen wives
Sabbats charming - out in lust
Chance the warhead - win or bust
Warhead - hear the thunder roar
Warhead - unite the lightning whore
Warhead - engraved on flesh and bone
the pround son of proud fathers, the feared and fearless me
soldier of harmageddon, I was born to fly free
now they see a wasted resource, I'm banished, I'm scorned
lonely in my rusty shell a restless mind hellspawned
warhead...
they've marched with banners and they've torn down the wall
onware to new tomorrow, it illuminates them all
I was left anone to sulk in ther rift they had to heal
forgotten threat still lives on in this body of steel
warhead...
they say they'll make a deal, trying to pull the very last fang
they think that I'm asleep but I'm ready to make a bang
they thought to guar against the coming of the judgement day
I'll just say let there be light and there'll be hell to pay
warhead...
nothing really maters now, the weak they just complain
do they thin their lives somehow have any worth to gain?
naked in the blast like flies, they'll leave an oily stain
Soldiers of Islem are loading their guns
They're getting ready
but the Russian tanks are mowing them down
They're getting ready
There's children in Africa with tommy guns
Getting ready
While the Islam armies are beckoning on
They're getting ready
[Chorus]
There's a burning sun
And it sets in the western world
But it rises in the east
And pretty soon
It's gonna burn your temples down
While the heads of state are having their fun
Are they ready?
We're looking at the world through the barrel of a gun
Are we ready?
And you stand there beating on your little war drum
Are you ready?
And it won't be long before your time has come
Are you ready?
[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
Warhead, warhead, warhead
Warhead, warhead, warhead
Warhead, warhead, warhead
Warhead, warhead, warhead
Well I don't know what it is but i feel something coming
Stuck in the middle of the Yankees and the Russians
Better get moving guns are getting loaded
Fast to the border where the tanks are a rolling
There's a nation in fear another nation crying
One nation killing and another nation dying
Why?
The king of lies
Is alive
Look around
Look inside
Infidel
It begins here, it ends now
The prince must pay
His head or the crown
Rob the poor, slaughter the weak
Distort the law, perfect deceit
Do I need a gas mask?
Should I get inoculated?
Will this war last?
Will we be incincerated?
False gods
Death squads
Blind
This is a catastrophe
Weapon systems activated
Puritans have invaded
This is a catastrohpe
To protect against the threat
Order must be kept
Do I need a gas mask?
Should I get inoculated?
Will this war last?
Will we be incincerated?
False gods
Death squads
Blind
The elephants march to war
Concede
Conform
Concede
Conform
Deny the big lie
My tribe
Join me
An alliance of defiance, in the warhead
An alliance of defiance
All are welcome here
Give me your tired, give me your sick, give me your indulgence and decadence
He lied, they died, keep the peasants terrified
This is a catastrophe
You must lead if they get me
On my command
[Bonus track]
We came by sea and through the air
Our troops are everywhere
Lies are spread by foreign gods
We can not be controlled
We will win this moral fight
Marching on to your delight
It a world of hate and fear
We will conquer you will disappear
Called upon by a wicked sound
Plant the flag in holy ground
Blood and thunder in the night
The battle has begun
We will survive and stand our ground
Freedom of speech is sacred to us
Condemned into eternity
We will not give in
You can't tell us what to do
What to be seen depend on the eye
Ignorance takes many forms
We will draw what we want
Warhead - Violent bloodsheet
Taking aim as I approach
The scenario is set for our world to explode
We’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time
There’ll be no salvation for us
I bet this night will be sublime
My tube of death
Is pointing your way
My warhead is armed
Better beg for mercy today
Beg for mercy!
Fire in the hole!
You scream in despair
Releasing my cluster bombs
From high in the air
Penetrating your defence
I’m spreading my disease
Onto you
The pain I release
My tube of death
Is pointing your way
My warhead is armed
Better beg for mercy today
Beg for mercy!
The wardrums are played
With my stick on your skin
I’m the black hole tailgunner
Coming straight out of hell
Your body is trembling
Going into aftershock
Of all the bitches in the world
You were my best fuck
My tube of death
Is pointing your way
My warhead is armed
Better beg for mercy today

Shades of blood
And shades of inhumanity
We can see
Your trace throughout history
Decades of hope
You brought up to society
And centuries of pain
And hopelessness and misery
Your mission is perfect
You spread and infect
Annoying insect
Good christians
Crucifictions
Forgiven when you cross yourself
In the name of god
Millions have been sent to hell
Is it faith
What makes you look up to the priest
Or ignorance
Or the fear of the beast?
Your mission is perfect
You spread and infect
Annoying insect
today was the day, money I didn't have
they came to me in their white coats
and took my kidneys and my heart
now my body's bloody cold,
my signature was my grave!
sign your name and you'll be free,
take the money and feel good
pay your debts, it's all okay,
20.000 you have got
I give you one year to pay back
and take your organs if you don't
now you know about the consequence,
so we'll meet in one year
I knew I couldn't get a job these days,
so where could I find my way out
20.000 dollars were too much,
the doc, he knew I had no chance
poverty was my gallows pole,
the rich were dancing on my grave
and isn't it disgusting, man,
I wasn't dead, I was alive
it's not a tale, man, this is true,
I paid my debts with my life
it's not a vision of tomorrow,
those things happen today
if you've got money, you'll get new teeth,
you'll get new skin and a new heart
but as a poor man
[Instrumental]
...the Pardon Board refuses the aquittal of the murderer. Outside the
courthouse there's a pro-death sentence demonstration and the people
demand his annihilation...
Turned down! Dead man in the dock
The Pardon Board has done it's job
I break down, guards lead me away
I have lost the game
Outside people celebrate
My day of death they can't await
I shiver as I hear their words, again and again:
CLEAN OUT THE BRUTE! ELECTROCUTE!
How can I face my destiny?
The Strap-down Team's awaiting me
To end my life in chains and cells, a life in hell
To pray for delay or clemency
The last rites of humanity
Is this what is left for me?
I still hear them yell:
...desperation, regret and the wish for a second chance play on his mind
during his transportation to a high security prison far out in the desert...
They close the door, they start the bus
I hope it's not the last trip that I have to go
A driving cage that carries me
To the place you cannot flee
Am I a dead passenger?
So here I go, the sun is rising
There's nothing that's surprising me on my last trip
Cause this is a real nice day for
A deadly trip to the insane corps
The madmen await me!
DESERT TRIP
It's more than dubious what they do
And more than mad what I'm going through
In their eyes justified, the sun still shines
I count the lines
I count the days, left in haze, a desert's in my head
So it's right, okay, I have to pay, cause what I did
Was more than shit, I regret all the pain I caused
And if I could undo my goddamn deed
I would give you everything you need
Give me a chance and not a kick!
holy church it's you we hail
feed us on our holy trail
give us gold and holy food
Jesus Christ we praise our loot
could be words in mind and head
wishing harmless people dead
did you act on God's command
"cleaning" all unholy land
celebrate, celebrate
...on the backseat of a squad-car he realizes for the first time what he
has done and wonders about his bleak future. He's aware of his guilt and
tries to justify himself with a blackout...
Oh let me wake up quickly, let me get outta here
And wash away the guilt, the blood-stains on my shirt Oh my god what have I
done?
Why did I use this fuckin' gun?
Why did I shoot and kill a man? and a woman, too?
BLACKOUT BLACKOUT BLACKOUT BLACKOUT
Now here I sit on the back-seat of a squad car
What's gonna happen now? I won't say a word to any of these bastards
They won't make me bow I didn't want to kill these people I didn't want to
shoot
This was never my intention
Really, I didn't want to...
...in his thoughts the murderer blames the ones who pass the laws,
sentence to death and file the cases away. In his eyes they commit a
murder, planned and legalized by the government. He asks himself: Could
they ever kill a man with their own hands?...
This is my life, a piece of paper in your hands
You play the big guy
You're behind the scenes of the crime
You don't push the button
You pronounce the death sentence
Then you put me on hold, your henchmen to kill me
Could you ever kill a man with your own hands
Tell me how strong you would be
If you were forced to execute me!?
YOU LET ME ROT, LIKE A PIECE OF YOUR FLESH
YOU LET ME ROT, LIKE A PIECE OF YOUR FLESH
You really believe.
You're going to church on Sunday.
You could do no harm
You represent the public opinion
I guess you don't know
What's going to happen that morning
Or you simply suppress that you're a murderer
Could you ever sleep well at night, if I'd face you
Tell me how grateful you'd be
If your own hands had to kill me!?
YOU LET ME ROT, LIKE A PIECE OF YOUR FLESH

the black sunshine high above
smell dead children, forget to love
soul burns brightly, never see
never hear a word from me
one door is open, one door is locked
i am the mountain, the highest rock
you'll never reach the end until
your hands work for my own will
hurgh
a loaded pistol in your hand
will never be my command
the dream you reach in your mind
well, i'm polite, you'll never find
without my hand, without my feet
a man is nothing more than meat
hell is for those who criticize
the truth, it lies behind my eyes
hurgh
i don't possess you, i don't care
that's not my kind of warfare
trust me, you're small together we're tall
when you give me your life, child
it is the last time you will smile
for me the biggest, endless thrill
you never thought that i'd kill
hurgh
and from the point that you are mine
you start to learn a different side
the one who reaches out for me
is trapped by sick misanthropy
cause i deliver you from good
i treat you like nobody would
say hello to the masters knife
and say good-bye to the beat of life
hurgh

he would never kill again...
I swear, I'd never fail again
I swear, I'd never fail again
I swear, I'd never fail again
I swear, I'd never fail again
Well-devised from the start
No matter what I learned
Where's the hand that I could hold
I never could return
I'm buckled on this cross-like desk
The whitnesses await
I made my life a one-way street
"Listen!"

"Flashback Of A Poor Man"
An organ doner who, in need of money, promises a doctor
to let him have his organs. He can't pay back the money

"Shut Your Mouth"
More than just dissatisfaction with politics;
we ask the politicians to shut up. No more lies,

Virus alert in a research lab.
"Perfect / Infect"

"Behind My Eyes"

What is left of a child's enthusiasm once it has grown up?
What does one leave behind once one is dead?
...as demanded by the prosecuting attorney the jury find him guilty and
subsequently he is sentenced to death. His bitter ordeal begins...
He says, I pulled the trigger, fearless and cool
A murderer with intention, hardened like old school
A cold-blooded man, holding up a store
A calculated plan, to enforce what he's heading for
Once I learned 'eye for eye', now I get pain for pain
He wants me to die, I talk 'bout the D. A.
He's counting 'life for life', he's showing up my way
He says, there's a lot thats due -
There are three ways to pay:
For the bereaved we've got to dare
Electric chair, death can be fair
The draft of death gas chamber's breath
Leads him to death, lock up the door!
A lethal dose, a gift from God
Puts him to sleep, smoothe like a dog
The draft of death, gas chamber's breath
Leads him to death, lock up the door!
I'm facing judge and jury, the victim's families
The actors of this play, of this criminal case
The jury listen to, the words of the D. A.
If they follow his request, I will be erased:
We've got to free the world
From the burdon of this beast
With his loss of life, other people will find peace
The punishment is fair, his guilt can't be denied
The rules should be clear right now,
There are three ways to die:
For the bereaved, we've got to dare
Electric chair, death can be fair
The draft of death, gas chamber's breath
Leads him to death, lock up the door!
A lethal dose, a gift from God
Puts him to sleep, smoothe like a dog
The draft of death, gas chamber's breath
Leads him to death, lock up the door!
I've heard their words, I've heard them all
Can't believe they're talking about me
They made my hope rise and fall
Now a real way out I cannot see
All these feelings come down on me
I've lost the gleam of hope, is this reality?
It might come back again...
I loved my life, they proved me wrong,
I've buried dreams, I've buried plans
Maybe they're right, what have I done?
I killed two people, here I am
All these feelings come down on me
I've lost the gleam of hope, is this reality?
...right after the robbery the murderer tries to escape, the police search
teams hard on his heels. He's soon cornered and arrested...
Sirens wailing
Voices yelling
Confusion in my head, I cannot think at all
There's no turning back, backed against the wall
Sirens in the air, I hear that racking sound
The pounding of my heart, I'm feelin' they're around
Drop the gun, turn 'round!
Resistance is senseless!
Drop the gun, turn 'round!
Resistance is senseless, Senseless!
Floodlights searching
Bloodhounds seeking
Bloody cops on my back, searching every block
I'm cought in a trap, driven into and locked
No, I won't obey, I take my chance and run
I know I'll find a way, yes, I still got my gun
Drop the gun, turn 'round!
Resistance is senseless!
Drop the gun, turn 'round!
Resistance is senseless!
Or should I stop, yield and confess it all...
...to dwell in jail for years? No! I've got to run!
Drop the gun, turn 'round!
people are coming to take me out of my house
don't understand the angryness of the crowd
bursting windows raining down the floor
don't realize what they are reaching for
GET OUT!
running, falling, slavering hands on my shirt
again and again they punch my face into the dirt
I lost my last hope when they started to beat
I'll never get myself out of this heat
WHAT FOR SHALL I DIE?
now they tighten the rope around my neck
a kick, the chair falls down, my heart attacks
no breath, no life, am I going to die?
what have I done, I don't know why?
they say that you have cought him,
they say he's punished now
they say that none should mess with you,
you infallible crowd
be proud of what you've done
for your selfrighteous sense of justice
the beast is dead, this is the end,
an act of fair revenge
but didn't you know that not just far away
another little girl was raped today?
and didn't you hear 'bout the man sitting in jail
that he has confessed this last two murders?
now we face the end of 1999
like rats they leave the sinking ship
the higher-class mankind
tearing down the walls of inhumanity
the crowd stands up with powersaws
to show you how to bleed
staight ahead
there's no beg
you will get - perfect/infect
with unjustice and poverty
you've tried to starve us out
but Judgement-Day's not far from here,
you'll see what it's all about
we'll shower you with pestilence
until your minds get lost
there's no escape from punishment,
eradication starts
straight ahead...
tell me when
you start to wonder why
the day you can't deny
will see you passing by
you'll be on your knees,
beg and entreat, oh please
we all just have one life
and each life says good-bye
straight ahead
there's no beg
you will get
this last good-bye
perfect/infect, perfect/infect
perfect/infect, perfect/infect
...during his first hours in the death house he is painfully overcome by
the emotional memories of his family and childhood...
I close my eyes and see it passing by
The time when I was free
Now makes me wonder why
A child grown up in love and harmony
My brother cared about my mom and me
HELP ME OUT, THESE PAINFUL MEMORIES
FLASHING THROUGH MY MIND
HELP ME OUT, THESE PAINFUL MEMORIES
LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND
Did you forget the good times that we had
I still can see you smile and now it drives me mad
The smile turns into laughter, fades to grey
The friends I had, they turn their heads away
HELP ME OUT, THESE PAINFUL MEMORIES
FLASHING THROUGH MY MIND
HELP ME OUT, THESE PAINFUL MEMORIES
LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND
I open my eyes, shadows, dark and mean
Isolation, I am no more the one I & #8217; ve been
You leave me in this hell and misery
The pressure in my head is killing me
HELP ME OUT THESE PAINFUL MEMORIES
FLASHING THROUGH MY MIND
HELP ME OUT THESE PAINFUL MEMORIES
This concept album tells the fictional story of a man sentenced to death
awaiting his execution on death row. This is an emotional story of violence
and remorse, apprehension and uncertainty, hope and desperation,
told from the angle of the murderer. Beyond Recall is not making a
political statement for or against capital punishment. It does not deal
with guilt or innocence, justice or injustice. Futhermore the central
character of this story is a person who has murdered and consequently
awaits his death. This album describes his hopeless situation cought
in the governmental legal system - his life torn between hate and hope,
doubt and despair...
It all starts off with the armed robbery of a supermarket
during which the perpetrator shoots two innocent employees...
There is no way to excuse a murder nor a chance for compensation.
my apartment's 'round the block
downtown there's not much you've got
it was my last day at work
don't ask me if it does hurt
I've got to walk
'cause they damaged my car
last week at a slutty bar
oh, the rent I'm not able to pay
and my wife kicked me today
do yourself a good
in your neighbourhood
march along the floor and
KILL YOUR NEIGHBOUR!
KILL YOUR NEIGHBOUR!
people nextdoor drive me insane
what is their intention, what is their gain
they're disturbing me
when they're passing my way
and it hurts
when they've got nothing to say
there's nobody who's really good
out there in my neighbourhood
a man hurts his wife and children cry all day
I think I better blow 'em all away!
do yourself a good...
these were times I remember well
things that I can hardly tell
I do repent and I have to pay
as the priest and me
where do I go?
is life all I know?
is pain all I feel,
and time is here to heal?
and I'm watching from the other side
there was the start
the years have played their part
a child, soon a man
what's left of my plans?
and the quest goes on until the end
who looks behind my eyes when I'm asleep?
who looks behind my eyes when I'm down deep?
what makes me feel the way that I feel everyday?
am I alive or dead on my lonely way?
and I'm going to meet my fate
who looks behind my eyes when I'm asleep?
who looks behind my eyes when I'm down deep?
who looks behind my eyes when I'm asleep?
...years later: The day of his judgement is now certain. The execution of
a fellow inmate inflames his hate towards the prison and guards...
The sun rises, the light is warm and bright
Another inmate soon will lose his life
One more day, one more night, that's all
For sure he'll meet his murderers at dawn
Now they are here to kill another man
The Strap-down Team, I call them the hangmen
One cell is left forever and I know
It's killing time on death row!
In my hour of death, I wish I'm not alone
You are doing wrong, this law is heresy
IN MY HOUR OF DEATH, I WISH I'M HERE NO MORE
IT'S MY ONLY HOPE; THAT'S WHAT I'M FIGHTING FOR
The sun goes down, his last night has begun
He has to say good-bye to wife and son
He had hope, the pardon on his mind
But the governor he never signs
There's still a light that shines across the yard
Working men, playing all their part
The death house awaits the ceremony
Who is next? It could be me!
In my hour of death, I wish I'm not alone...
Is there hope? Is there life?
Or will I follow him into the night?
...rejected and killed... no,... not me!!!
Red light, glowing sky at dawn
Right now he fights the fight that can't be won
They're taking time, they're doing their duty
The job is done responsibly
Minutes, days, lifes are passing by
Another inmate, now, has lost his life
When prisoners mourn and one man had to go
It was killing time on death row!
...because of the strict organisation and the brutality
of his treatment he feels robbed of his dignity...
Life is hell, a mindless odysee
Now here I dwell, stuck in misery
Forced to draw the line, life not worth a dime
Pain rules my day, living to obey
FORCED! FORCED!
The guard wants to provoke me
The priest wants to calm me down:
Rage is aggravating. The punishment is known
Already stopped living, No mind, no heart, no will
Captured in a death-trap, Forced to keep still
RESPECT I REGRET, RESPECT MY SHAMEFUL LIFE
Nothing left to lose, except my selfcontrol
Rage is satisfying, feelings are reborn
Got to end this nightmare, awake before I drop
To fight because I'm human
The last thing that I've got
RESPECT I REGRET, RESPECT MY SHAMEFUL LIFE
FORCED! FORCED!
...now strapped to the table he hopelessly watches the preparation of his
lethal injection. As the poison enters his veins his life is beyond recall.
It's all a mistake, this show is a fake
You fuckers, you lie, I wanted to try
And no one of you, the murderers crew
Is better than me, you're guilty in my eyes
BEYOND RECALL
Who starts the machine?
You turn me to the screen
For you it's all a joke, you want me to choke
I still can't believe, it's only your grief
It's not, I can feel I'm not sure that you know this is
BEYOND RECALL
So look at me, look at me, you witnesses
What do you see?
Is this what makes you masturbate
For you everything's too late
The last thing I want to tell you
And I know that this is true, cause someday
You'll all die, too, and this is
BEYOND RECALL
Cold liquid, the poison's in my veins
Oh my god, I can't describe the pain
Why can't I breathe, I'm fighting with my fate
Two children raised in bitterness
A poor life's what they lead
Smoking pot is total bliss
A future's what they need
Helplessly the parents moan
The youth's out of control
They steal, they lie, they shoot the gun
They hear destructions call
Faces! All these Faces!
You know there's something more to this
Place of horror, no tomorrow, always sorrow in the
City of God
Face it, got to face it, they keep on fighting to
survive
Bullets flying, see them dying, hear them crying in the
City of God
Dead souls
Years have passed the kids grew up
Two stories here to tell
One became a normal Joe
The other king of hell
Dealing drugs spreading the pain
He's on a killing spree
Godfather of his district now
He feels almighty free
Faces! All these Faces!
You know there's something more to this
Place of horror, no tomorrow, always sorrow in the
City of God
Face it, got to face it, they keep on fighting to
survive
Bullets flying, see them dying, hear them crying in the
City of God
Dead souls
The city's a mess - Drugs rule street
They want nothing less - It's all that they need
There's no compromise - Be quick or be dead
The look in their eyes - Aiming straight at your head
A living disease - There's no way to hide
They do what they please - They're prowling the night
To kill and to burn - Is all that they know
The tables will turn - All the sorrow will show
Life it ain't fair - There's no turning back
They don't shed a tear - The final attack
They planted the seed - And see what they get
(arranged by WARHEAD)
a tear drops down from your face
the wrong thing at the right place
your eyes a touch of nothing
your captured
the bloody truth is, you're stoned again
feel the needle in your veins
buy the stuff and be dead
a little higher you get
eat pills instead eating bread
emotions you share with pain
you're insane
as long as you are satisfied
you're standing on the good side
a hell's what you're living in
blindly
close the door behind your eyes
await the big surprise
the fire is burning cold
your life's sold
the stab hurts you, never care
a dead body, a living nightmare
it gets you before you can get it
the beginning of the end
the opinion you had to defend
the walk into the fire
your desire
never stop, go on and on
nothing's right but you are wrong
you have gone one step too far!

This is your life-long atmosphere
Your mother keeps you trapped in here
A cruel world you can't escape
Your name is carrie, you're in bad shape
Your mother's mentally deranged
So you can't cope with life outside
The things she teaches you are strange
You can't differ the truth from lies

You stand alone in the world of pain
Your suffering is your mother's gain
The bloody child of a bloody ass

There is no helping hand at school
No real friends you can talk to
No mercy, treated like a fool
It's just your mom who talks to you

As you begin to realize
There's a power behind your eyes
Satisfied, hear your mother yell
It is the exit out of hell
The ones who treated you so bad
Are watching you now going mad
You kill the ones that took your pride
Your final deed, the suicide!

the black door of a big neglected building
they call it papermill, we call it excess
i step inside, cold light shines
from a lantern outside, i feel depressed
i know this way well, so i walk down
to the basement to meet "me", friend
the rave-party starts right now
i ask for pills, enjoy that thrill
going, going to, yo
going to the center
let me arrive
going to the center
splitting my life
the first song they play, my heart beats fast
i feel the tension, escape from within
the bassdrum's hammering in my head
the dancefloor quakes, it makes me awake
the entrance to a better world somewhere in me
calls for me, some kind of error
i dance a thousand years or more
i'm lost in a vision, a lovely terror
going, going to, yo
going to the center
let me arrive
going to the center
splitting my life
a few hours passed by, i'm still dancing
it keeps me moving on, the beat and the sound
i find myself on the floor as i dance some more
it got me down
going, going to, yo
going to the center

a little room with a lattice window
here i live there's nothing more
outside concrete, grey and cold
this is my home, i'm the one who's left
the second made me be the one i am
the stories people tell here are heavy
and this is mine...
oh my love was great,
thought that i am the only one you need
you gave me the only
meaning to my life
i changed everything for you
said that we'd love until we die
and somehow
we made the words come true
the first year we were together
nothing bad i did expect
two people in a world full of honey
and slowly i got blind
something happenedin the second year
we were kissing but our eyes weren't closed
and sex became a different thing
than we did a few weeks ago
i didn't want to realize it
i didn't want to see
you said you went to the doctor
what a beautiful lie
for the time we didn't speak too much
and what we spoke was simply shit
i knew i would like to get rid of it
so one day you were calling the "doctor"
and i saw you leaving our home
i followed you to his place
and looked through the window
you were kissing
you were pissing
you were fucking that man
and i was watching you
so believe, i jumped through the window
to get you, my dear
i was taking the knife that i had
and ram it into your head

honesty! misery! creep on knees to be free
don't you see, suffering is all you've got to feed the kings
self-defence! ignorance! second hand perplexity!
all that stuff are swellings of our cowardly society
if you don't ever close your eyes, you'll see what for your courage dies
cash is where the power rules, go perish on a ship of fools
you're not just only meaningless, you're draged into unconsciousness
but give a shit where you might go, it's all the same, the folks are only
dust, only dust
dust, only dust is what lasts
bloody hands are the sense, it's your cheat
so how long will you die for their greed?
good part for each
masquerade! glittering! free from care, everywhere
funny face! "mercy-b"! honest work! you are free!
whet your ellbows, go to score, try to win the social war
kill your brother when you must, if you don't want to be the lost!
our politix sell weapons to the middle-east fascism clans
while they decide in silent rooms their insatiable budget plans
so snatch-up what you still can grip, the hell awaits your final trip
with or without a cadillac you'll end up in the same disease, it's
dust, only dust...
look the truth in the eye, all you give, all you try
think it up, think it down, get a grip, you're on your own
powerful, mercyless, the law comes down to break your chest
in the end you will know, finished man, get a bow
when will you ever realize, the final path is suicide?
the time is right for "red-alert", go on, defend your lifes on earth
justice meets establishment, no poor control the government
woe to those who try to change, the mills of life will grind you up to
dust, only dust...

incident of shame
the pope and his slaves want to tame
other points of view
non-religion is not true
what is god, is he
a point of view i cannot see?
let me die
i want to see god
fifteenth century
a witch in mortal agony
priests told women with red hair
they'd better "take care"
they didn't need a reason
for bloody treason!
let me die
i want to see god
so what is church to me?
church is pain and misery!
and what did they learn?
many people they have burned
there is one thing for me
one thing i would like to see!
told from the angle of the murderer. Beyond Recall is not
making a
political statement for or against capital punishment. It
does not deal
with guilt or innocence, justice or injustice. Futhermore
the central
character of this story is a person who has murdered and
consequently
awaits his death. This album describes his hopeless
situation cought
in the governmental legal system - his life torn between
hate and hope,
doubt and despair...
It all starts off with the armed robbery of a supermarket
during which the perpetrator shoots two innocent
employees...
There is no way to excuse a murder nor a chance for
compensation.
[Savatage cover]
Hi - Welcome to hell
You are all here
For this where you must dwell
Sinners and cheats
Sit here with Satan
And have all your spirits meet
Oh city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
Die - We all must die
How will you face it
When you bend to your knees and cry
Burn - Like witches burn
When will you sinners believe
That it's your time to learn?
Oh city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
You breathe earth's inner space
You never can leave this place
Punished for the way that you lived
Raping and stealing
But never one thought to give
Here forever - not a trail or a trace
Total illusions of tales
Hate to say it to you
But you don't want to hear
What I feel when I hear you cry
I die inside
Beast on my back
You're always there
Don't want to hear your problems
Full of yourself
No you don't care
About no soul but you
You lie and shit and moan
I got to live life on my own
(My hate is leading me)
Can't breath at all
I'm in your grip
You tear me down with all your shit
(Anger building inside of me)
Deaf as you are
Yes you are
You shut your mind from me
You tell me that you're sick and tired
What's that supposed to mean?
Beast on my back
You're always there
Don't want to hear your problems
Full of yourself
No you don't care
About no soul but you
You lie and shit and moan
I got to live life on my own
(My hate is leading me)
Can't breath at all
I'm in your grip
You tear me down with all your shit
(Anger building inside of me)
The skies turn black
Lightning strikes the ocean
Thunder calls you
I can't breath air
Purple People!
I see the way you treating me
One man one word
He's fucking mean
Out on the road
A damn killing machine
Hands on the wheel
Yeah, faster he rides
The pain that he deals
Is fire in his eyes
No place to run, no place to hide
He's out to get you through day and night
This man means business and you will die
You can't escape, there is no use to try!
You made mistakes
Now he comes for you
Your life he takes
There's nothing you can do
He's coming in sight
Soon you will be dead
Yeah, he'll take your pride
The bounty on your head
You cannot hide, you're never free
The night is cold and now there is no sound
The earth it cracks open from the underground
A hand comes up, now you see a face
Distorted features of the undead race
Have no fear your time is up
They have come to eat you up
Zombie Ride
Feeding the night
You cannot run and you cannot hide
Zombie Ride
Feast on your fright
They only want your flesh
They come to you and you forgot how to run
They grab your legs and now you are done
As they take a bite you start to shiver
They rip through you choking on your liver
Blood is flowing
Guts are showing
Zombie Ride
Feeding the night
You cannot run and you cannot hide
Zombie Ride
Feast on your fright
They only want your flesh
As the teeth rush in
Let the slaughtering begin!
Zombie Ride
Feeding the night
You cannot run and you cannot hide
Zombie Ride
Feast on your fright
Confused by life I walk alone
Never thought I'd be the one
Who has to bear the greatest pain
And that your hate is all I gain
I tried to make everything right
Stayed in the shadow of the night
I am a ghost that is unseen
Never knew what might have been
Don't see the sun, no air to breath
I live in sewers underneath
There is no helping hand for me
I count my days in agony
The time is slipping through my hands
I start to loose my common sense
Oh why have you forsaken me?
This dreadful nightmare shouldn't be
And when you think that I will not return again
You see me eat my lunch out of a garbage can
I won't give up, but I can't fight the feeling
You turn your heads away from all the damage that
you're dealing
Despise the world that's up above
I want to know what's life and love
I make my plans for my return
My souls on fire - feel it burn
The time is right, the time is now
I know I make it back somehow
And as I crawl out of my hole
My fierce revenge will get you all!
And when you think that I will not return again
You see me eat my lunch out of a garbage can
I won't give up, but I can't fight the feeling
You turn your heads away from all the damage that
you're dealing
Living dead, down below - only reason to survive
Get out of the dark - you don't care, you don't know
I am bound to stay alive
Despise the world that's up above
I want to know what's life and love
I make my plans for my return
My souls on fire - feel it burn
The time is right, the time is now
I know I make it back somehow
And as I crawl out of my hole
My fierce revenge will get you all!
And when you think that I will not return again
You see me eat my lunch out of a garbage can
I won't give up, but I can't fight the feeling
You turn your heads away from all the damage that
you're dealing
Still got my pride - and I know that I'm alive
Time for me to rise - yes I will destroy the hive
Bound to endless time - do you think that you're alive
Vengeance in my soul - time for you to pay that all
You won't break me down
Living dead down below
Only reason to survive
Get out of the dark
You don't care you don't know
you can speak as a man
you can walk as one
can be proud of your past
and the things you've done
all I read from your lips
is sweeter than gingerbread
Mr. President, I'm awake
shut your mouth, for God's sake
SHUT! SHUT! SHUT!
SHUT YOUR MOUTH! SHUT, OH PLEASE
SHUT YOUR MOUTH! SHUT, SHUT UP!
you promise good, promise work
money for everyone
but the best jobs in town
are for your daughters and your sons
why do you get the most
in this motherfucking land?
well, because all you give
the deep dungeons in the heads
are filled with distrust, hate and pain
a friendly smile to keep the common face
it's the same old ugly game
SIX BILLION HUMANS CREAPING DOWN ON EARTH
HIDING FROM WHAT THEY'LL DESERVE
LIVING ONLY TO ENJOY
NOT FOR LIFE, JUST TO DESTROY
go down, go down, go down without remorse
for your own end you're the cause
go on, go on until it's to late
follow your God and stand straight
you hurt each other with your hatred
killer and victim through and through
you think you're the only exception
and for this I hate you!
feed the dungeons in your head
preach damnation and stand straight
feed the dungeons in your head
we know you just preach to hate
feed the dungeons, feed the dungeons
Tell me what has happened since the gulf war
I wonder if our lives are saver now
Did they crush the axis of evil?
Or where they out for what lies underground?
Do you see the next big thing is coming?
Shock & Awe the punchline for attack
Is this all a war against terror?
Oh will the phobia get off our back?
Did they find the head of global terror?
Is he hiding somewhere in a cave?
I wonder if there's someone still searching
Or is the answer hiding in a safe?
Nearby we can see that there is mischief
Helping here would be a mighty deed
All I see is that they give a warning
Plans are different for the 'creed of greed'
The puppets that you see - they're hollow
The truth that you can't find - is hard to swallow
This power rules the world - below the surface
You can't see their eyes - they are faceless
Phantoms!
Don't they see the other source of fire?
Genocide is happening all the time
Hungry people crying for salvation
But I see that no one gives a dime
Look around you all you see is madness
Better start to ask and use your brain
There is something happening in the shadows
Decisions made are totally insane!
The puppets that you see - they're hollow
The truth that you can't find - is hard to swallow
This power rules the world - below the surface
You can't see their eyes - they are faceless
As you sit there in your cell
You think about your life
The time it runs so quick
Your skin has turned to grey
No there is nothing more for you
Windows barred
Can't breath air
Wait for death
No one's there
It's your crises
You don't want to be
The warden closed the door
A simple plan
To set you free
Oh, you don't want no more
Windows barred
Can't breath air
Wait for death
No one's there
You hear voices from afar
Never free, yes you are
Captured
Your life is no more
You rot on the floor
(Oh lord please forgive me)
Captured
The devil will grin
You pay for your sin
(Oh lord please forgive me)
Captured
There's no need to whine
You're facing your time
(Oh lord please forgive me)
Captured
You sit in your cell
You're captured in hell
Windows barred
Can't breath air
Wait for death
No one's there
You hear voices from afar
Lies! - You heard them all
Blood! - You feel it's call
Time for payback it's the final day!
Hope! - You lost your dreams
Justice! - Ain't what it seems
Shooting killing as your mind decays!
Mercy is for weaklings
Don't give in your feelings
Just do as you will
Come and join the players
Speak your final Prayers
Buckle up - this is the overkill!
'Fire in the hole' - we have compromised!
'Fire in the hole' - it's time to see the lies!
A toxic combination
Your feast on this sensation
You know what to do
Countless deaths to follow
Plant the seeds of sorrow
Move them down
You're trained to kill and
Hate! - It fills your soul
Pain! - It takes it's toll
You grab the gun and then you loose control!
Sin! - Now it's to late
Death! - Became your trade
No time to think you're out to kill them all!
So you pull the trigger
Bloods becoming thicker
A feeling oh so new
Each bullet flies with anger
Forget the current danger
Kill the scum
A target for their lies!
Your head filled with Lies!
You look to the sky
And watch your demise
Lies! - You suffer from Lies!
The pain in your eyes
You paying the price
Now the war is over
Oh what have you done?
Now you're feeling not so right
You face what you've become
A butcher and a slayer
A killer and impaler
Madman filled with rage
Now you're out to murder
And you take it further
Again you take the stage
'Fire in the hole' - we have compromised!
'Fire in the hole' - it's time to see the lies!
'Fire in the hole' - your bloodstained hand you see!
A corporate ID that shows you your fear
And a cross made the symbol we all need to bear
These monument buildings a power to show
You live on your knees as they tell you so
Science is nonsense the stupid are fine
Intelligence unknown, in gods own design
Progress's for demons and devils alike
Ignorant faith sill stands at your side
They conquered these lands
And showed you his will
With blood on their hands
Humanity's failed
The star struck are blind
The brain is impaled
(Get down and praise)
Thanx Killing
Diseases are made to whip out the weak
Sinners will die their heavenly deed
The all seeing one is watching this hell
The future is set for evil to dwell
Hands folded to pray
The light's guiding way
A shadow of doubt
For nothing is real
And you've made a deal
To follow his ways
Full of deception they alter perception
The pages are written in blood
The words you devour just strengthen their power
Your mind feeds their hunger for gold
And so you celebrate an ugly feast
Your turn your heads so you don't face the beast
Your brains been blanked and now your in their grip
As they torture souls with their flaming whip!

What do you think
While you are running here
Between the bushes in the rain?
What do you feel
Inside your fucking head?
Cause now your "real me" goes insane
I will take your soul
For my own pleasure
Many of you warheads
Went that way before
Be careful what you say
It takes your breath away
It takes your life
Just another war
Once again
You hear the hammering on the outside
The helicopters in the sky
You try to run
But you can't control your legs
You realize it's time to die
I will take your soul...
Be careful what you say...
Did you ever think
That your government
Tells you the truth about your war?
You crossed the boarderline,
Sawed the seeds of death
But in the end i beg for more
I will take your soul...
Woke up in a dark old classroom
You hear the grim teacher speak
This youth that is neglected
The stronger will kill the weak
Now your old friends have betrayed you
And now you know you're on your own
You think that this is nothing new
You always fought alone
Comeon put the fucking gun in your hand
Never stop running
You fellow classmates got their targets on you
You can hear them coming
An explosives collar's hanging round your neck
Making sure you won't survive
If you don't follow all the rules
You better try to stay alive
21 kids are dead and gone
You only crack a smile
Soon you will be free again
But only for a very short while
Comeon put the fucking gun in your hand
Never stop running
You fellow classmates got their targets on you
You can hear them coming
The B.R. game's all over now
The last day it is here
Your evil teacher takes a bow
The losses were severe
Comeon put the fucking gun in your hand
Never stop running
You fellow classmates got their targets on you
hahahahaha! listen to me
children, listen to what I say
you're all here to find the truth
to find God and your duty
so when I say kneel
you'll have to kneel and speak to God
and now fold your hands and close your eyes
'cause this is what God has to say to you
you're here to pray along your way
into the night, the other side
and when you find the one who's blind
prepare to fight, the other side
hahahahaha! listen to me
disciples, spiritualize my speach
there's one God on this world
he says walk my way and you'll never die
so I say believe and you'll believe
'cause God speaks to you
now lay down cause I've come to heal you
your mind and your body
you're here to pray along your way
into the night, the other side
and when you find the one who's blind
way up, way down and no way to return
mankind that never learned
just talk 'bout love and respect but just lie in fact
I tell you that's the way you act
the deep dungeons in the heads
are filled with distrust, hate and pain
a friendly smile to keep the common face
it's the same old ugly game

...facing death he feels foresaken by God and his country. He never lived
a christian life but it's the irony of his fate that he - like Jesus -
will be executed. And didn't Jesus also say: "God, you failed!"...
I never thought I'd have something
In common with this man
My life was always different
To the way that god has planned
Father, this is your intention, you want me to obey
But government, it wants the same
And didn't Jesus say:
LORD, YOU FAILED; LORD, YOU FAILED
LORD, YOU FAILED; LORD, YOU FAILED
Now I await my destiny, regulated till the end
One man, one cell, one life, one death
I try to comprehend
I'm twisted and they say
I've got to be eliminated
If that's the way it's meant to be
You should be medicated!!!
LORD, YOU FAILED; LORD, YOU FAILED
the butterfly moves 'round and 'round
around the fire that burns so bright
the attraction he can't resist
the mystic sight is draging it

you've got no wings
but you're my butterfly
so full of power when you're high
your flame is white, I lose the fight
you never stop killing yourself, you're going

it's over now... it's over now...

Well-devised from the start
No matter what I learned
Where's the hand that I could hold
I never could return
I'm buckled on this cross-like desk
The whitnesses await
I made my life a one-way street
Pathetic lonely case

Raging torment - Take my hand
Frenzied motions - Reach your soul
Dance the warhead - Fast or slow
Born of thunder
Raised by fire
Call the heavens
By desire
Screaming furnace - Death of life
Demons calling - Chosen wives
Sabbats charming - Out in lust
Chance the warhead - Win or bust
Warhead - hear the thunder roar
Warhead - unite the lightning whore
Warhead - engraved on flesh & bone
