Saturday midnight
At midnight that same night, the Lafaettes were slipping
At midnight that same night, there is a shadow creepeng
Salem is moving without a sound
Salem is moving...moving, moving to the burial ground
So hot and so quiet, only the leaves are shaking
By one of the graves, Doctor le Croix is waiting
Salem is moving without a sound
Salem is moving...moving, moving to the burial ground
Doctor le Croix, shaking the hand of Salem
"My my my my my God, Salem tell me the secret
My my my my my God, this makes me feel uneasy"
In shock... Le Croix is terrified, this could be the end
Fear turns to hate. "Great Wanga will befall the Lafayettes
Salem help me, save us...Salem help me, save us
By turning them to dust
So take this money and off you go
To Madame Sarita's Boutique of Voodoo
A snake curse and a little "Goofer Dust"
You Salem will be the link between them and us
This could be an easy way to turn the Lafayettes to dead"
Two hours later. Salem leaves Madame Sarita
"My my my my my God, Salem is looking scary
My my my my my God, now he's heading for the cemetery
Kneeling in front of the graves
A handful of soll and Salem is on his way
He must leave a copper penny as payment for the soil
And to protect himself
From all the spirits that could come and dig themselves
Into his head... Dead...Dead...Dead...Salem is here
By the house, in the dark, there is a shadow digging
The snake in the bottle, is buried and it's ready
Salem is moving without a sound
Sitting on the back porch
Everybody be damned
Head in your hands, no particular plans
But oh, so many thoughts and dreams unheard
Words are nothing but words
Words are nothing but words
See the little children rolling in the yard
And the sun goes down until it's almost dark
And hear the train cry so many miles away
Another train, another day
If you ever make your mind up
I know you will be somebody
I know part of you wants to be everybody
But don't be afraid to fall, fall
Mason got his, you know that he did
He put his greedy eyes right over the lid
And oh, the bomb went off right in his face
Oh, he wears the scars with grace
But if you ever make your mind up
I know you will be somebody
I know part of you wants to be everybody
But don't be afraid to fall
Afraid to fall, afraid
[ Solo ]
Walking past the church
You make the sign of the cross
Hey God, it wouldn't cost you anything
To throw some light my way
You see, I'm a little low on life today
A little low on life today
Low on life today
Low on life today
Low on life today
Lowlife
Lowlife
Do you think you are safe?
Do you think they will spare you?
Do you think they are done with you
If they say that it's over?
So you believe it is over
Did they make you forget your dead?
Did they plant some hope in you
Before they ran for cover?
The world is a loaded pistol
I'll try to ease the pain
I'm here to secure a future
On the surface not down the drain
Did they put it behind you?
Did they say you could trust them?
Did they say they will not come for more
When this war was over?
The world is a loaded pistol
I'll try to ease the pain
I'm here to secure a future
On the surface not down the drain
I hear voices / a distant shadow / bloody traces
Is this death row?
Morning sunrise / endless darkness / foolish mankind
Divine sadness...
This was my main agenda
Here comes you lullaby
One day you will comprehend it
Tight fight quite a night, will it ever end
Sight light fright and might, are words that end the same
This is (this is meaningless)
No words to regret (no words to regret)
M2 (M2 will approve)
Listen to this groove (listen to this groove)
Tight fight quite a night, words and words again
Sight light fright and might, can you count to ten?
Mindless
Meaningless
Emptiness in the form of content
Clueless
Stressless
Ready for consumption junk
Mindless!! x4
This is (this is meaningless)
No words to regret (no words to regret)
M2 (M2 will approve)
Listen to this groove (listen to this groove)
Tight fight quite a night, will it ever end
Sight light fright and might, are words that end the same
Tight fight what a night, words and words again
Sight light frightened might, I know I sound insane
Mindless
Meaningless
Emptiness in the form of content
Clueless
Stressless
Ready for consumption junk
Some times I think that anything
Would be better than this
Inside my shrine no one's allowed
Hidden from passersby
Cerebral shelter from this world
Safe from this hell
You need no eyes.
To see the injustice
And breathe in the lies
Some times I think that anything
Would be better than this
Inside my shrine no one's allowed
Hidden from passersby
Cerebral shelter from this world
Feeling bad is not enough to feed the starving
Or call their bluff
Getting mad is not a way to aid the helpless
Who die each day
To make a difference we'd have to rebel
Against the system that's not treating us well
Against all religions who set us apart
Through hate and through fear you won't win my heart
Against mediocrity which says it's OK
To be wrong, go along, and have nothing to say
And against all the people who by bringing you
Down feel so right and important but their tongues are brown
Some times I think that anything
Would be better than this
Inside my shrine no one's allowed
Hidden from passersby
Cerebral shelter from this world
Safe from this hell
You need no eyes.
To see the injustice
There just one God
There just one God
There just one God
There just one... God!
Those admiring beauty
Those who worship skin
Those who fight for freedom
So they can live in sin
It's all just idol worshiping
God's might we are adulterating
Retreat!
Yet believe we are advancing
It's all just devil advocating
Trendy fashions the fountain of youth
Mask your path and cloud the truth
Don't cling to life yet throw it away
Making Idols to whom in vain you pray
Those who're blinded by money
Like those who live for sex
Those whose lives are funny
Yet they're popping pills for stress
It's all just idol worshiping
God's might we are adulterating
Retreat!
Yet believe we are advancing
It's all just devil advocating
There is just one God!
Trendy fashions the fountain of youth
Mask your path and cloud the truth
Don't cling to life yet throw it away
Making Idols to whom in vain you pray
Those addicted shoppers
And those who think they've won
Like those who blame others
Every time they use their gun
It's all just idol worshiping
God's might we are adulterating
Retreat!
Yet believe we are advancing
It's all just devil advocating
There is just one god
At times I do have visions of the past
Some might last but most die fast
Like one Egyptian woman's dire fate
It's easy to destroy hard to create
Cinaron consuming her mangled severed limbs
Cyril is assuming that from now on he's at ease
Drag her off her lofty throne
Take her to Caesareum church
Blind should always lead the blind
And the brave will walk alone
(It's time to burn her blood
The witch will soon be dead)
Savagely butchered skinned to please a god
Brutally mangled it's time to burn her blood
Savagely butchered skinned to please a god
Brutally mangled it's time to burn her blood
Cinaron consuming her mangled severed limbs
Cyril is assuming that from now on he's at ease
Serapeum on fire
Idolatry must end
One last symbol remaining
I see the pain
I smell fear in your breath
I feed on grief
I get pleasure from sin
You are the weak
Your reality is me
My presence is near to seal your fate
Why we live blinded
To end her fear, is to end your life
Breaking the golden rule before you are dead
Battered head makes better decisions
I see your pain
I smell fear in your breath
I feed on grief
I get pleasure from sin
Why we live blinded
Scurvy, smallpox, syphilis, typhoid
Starvation, laceration, mutilation, rape
Drums of the dead
The beat's in your head
Born of prayers of a thousand dead souls
Chained by fate down the abyss
God in drum, protector of spirits
Yearning for home so their bones rest in peace
Sorrow, anger, confusion, fear
Branding, clubbing, drowning, death
Slave traders, death dealers
Misinterpreters of right and wrong
Vengeance from beyond the grave
Will make you pray for death
Ancestors, forefathers
Avengers of helpless souls
Pound your justice upon our own
Who sold their blood,
It will succeed
Let's lynch the rich
This is the downfall of your kind
Sodom, Gomorrah
Idol worship in Babylon
Eve, Pandora
This battle will be won
Shortage, plethora
Our hatred rages on
And so we march
A Morning's stride to the gallows
tends to sharpen the mind
Knowing there will be no tomorrow
makes you enjoy today's ride
Day is done. Gone the Sun.
From the lake, From the sky.
Fading light. Dims the sight.
Drawing nigh, Falls the night
Do you believe that what you see
Through the dust and the debris
Must be in truth the only key
To make us all completely free
History is heresy
The story and the prophecy
Are simply what you make them be
sitting beside the mirror
looking at the face he's always known
all he sees is a shadow of himself
an image covered in scars
pain, suffering, all he's ever had
pain, suffering, all he'll ever know
he was the object of his parent's fighting
their aggressions always turned to him
he had no outlet to his feelings
and so he turned to his inner self
the pain got stronger every day
until there was no way to stop it
the natural way of conformity
is to mold each child to society's needs
but this system can't fit everyone
each individual will always be different
reality is morbidity
reality is insanity
society creating reality
society ignoring humanity
Broken, not united you see the disguise
Broken, not united
See where we've come with our collective hate
We leave behind ideals of a dying generation
Slip away
Bread and blood is life
God's gift to mankind
Broken yet revised
See where we've come
Broken, not united
We keep dry
under the rain of terror
Broken, not united
We leave behind
ideals of a dying generation
Slip away
Berated not refined
You see through the lies
Broke your nets and found
a peaceful haven
Turn it upside down
We keep dry under rainning terror
Children die to fuel the flame of hate
Dropped from the sky.
Came to earth.
To clean your minds.
And serve your hate.
Say your prayers.
Bring your child.
Save your souls.
I know what you've done.
You try to rule our lives.
You want to gain control.
You use a son of God.
To bring this hate.
You blind us with his name.
You treat us like a game.
When you sleep
The door is open
And through the dream
You pass the portal
Summoned by the guardian world
An unwanted guest in the guardian world
You are called to enter
For a purpose
It's not your own
And if you're wish enough
To pay attention
You'll see that you were warned
An unwanted guest in the guardian world
Through technological breakthrough
The pride of mankind
They developed a chemical portal
Parallel to dreams
Take heed for through this alien door
You enter uninvited
Into a world so great in power
It could crush your mind
When life has no value, death has a price
Spread your wings of fear upon the unsuspecting
Ill drill, overkill - weapons of mass destruction
This is an act of war
Act of terror
Act of war
Fate of humans is directed by the madness reality
of the third war raging madmen
Act of terror
Act of war
Fate of humans is directed by the madness reality
of the third world war raging madmen
When life has no value, death has a price
Spread your wings
of fear upon the unsuspecting
Ill drill, overkill - weapons of mass destruction
Remember when all the days were of gold
And time was always at your side
The days of childhood are forever gone
Innocence lays shattered by the grave
Wait for a moment of silence
Before the day turns to night
Before the day turns to night
Wait for a moment of silence
Before the coming of the dark
Before the great storm
Wait for a moment of silence
And then the sun turns to black
The sun turns to black
In remembrance of days
That will never come back
We each must face our dying pasts
For every day must die
And though we strive to make them last
The future is inevitable
Wait for a moment of silence
Before the day turns to night
Before the day turns to night
Wait for a moment of silence
Before the coming of the dark
Before the great storm
Wait for a moment of silence
And then the sun turns to black
The sun turns to black
In remembrance of days
That will never come back
The dead keep their lives
Inside our memories
Or so they say
But I'm not convinced
That's not enough for me
On that terrible night
Caught between the hope of his call
And the dread of his fall
The door bell band and not the phone
Since then I'm all alone
Morning brings a new day
Last night he passed away
Daylight shines outside
My loss I cannot hide
They say life goes on
A part of me died along with my son
Who will comfort me now
Each day brings less hope to me
There's nothing left but the past
Who will comfort me now
Each day brings less hope to me
There's nothing left but the past
Will we meet again at last
When I die
The dead keep their lives
Inside our memories
Or so they say
But I'm not convinced
My youth is seeping away so fast
And when you went you took hope away
Now I can not ignore the future
The present becomes unbearable
Old man did you think about tomorrow
Or was the final moment your betrayer
You bled to death between my hands
And there was nothing I could have done
For you
My youth is seeping away so fast
And when you went you took hope away
You bled to death between my hands
And there was nothing I could have done
One demon
calling fire down from the sky
Are you Elijah?
One demon working miracles to prove he's God
You are not prophet Moses
The mark of the beast
R F I D
And that no man might buy
Or sell but he that hath
The character or the name
Of the beast or the number of his name
Prophecies for an oblivious world
History written in advance
The end of the world, at least as we know it
This is the mantra of those not earth bound
They are the chosen, they are the martyrs
The ones who deciphered the meaning of life
The privileged dead
Are you privileged?
The world's at its end and we don't even know it
This is a mantra for those left behind
Alive and still breathing, hurting while dreaming
Unlike the ones who are not still around
The privileged dead
Are you privileged?
The more I dig into it
Questions are raised
Life should be cursed
Ten Nine
You have no spine
Eight Seven
Lost your way to heaven
Six Five
Die each day yet stay alive
Four Three
Two One
The beast has won
This is the sound of perdition
It's second coming your way
Smoke of their tormented souls
Ascends forever and ever
They have no rest day or night
Drink of the wine of the wrath of God
This is the sound of perdition
It's second coming your way
Ten Nine
You have no spine
Eight Seven
Lost your way to heaven
Six Five
Die each day yet stay alive
Four Three
Two One
Prince of the power of the air...
Then the angel took the censer
Filled it with fire from the altar
and threw it to the earth
Five Calamities
Five Disasters
Let the Earth Shake
Intergalactic collisions
Darken the sun
Wipe out life
The Beast has come
Twelve Demons
Disciples of the Star
Twelve Demons
Forcing the mark upon you
Twelve Demons
Servants of the King of Babylon
Twelve Demons
Prince of the power of the air
Forty-Two months to go
The Beast will rule the world below
Receive his mark or face your death
Drop your Gods and your primitive religion
Worship our land
Practice diminished
Slaves of the free world
Man made hunger
Bile and vulgar
Kneel
Brave new world
In the shadow of your mysterious death
Slave new world
In the shadow of your mysterious death
Dead man standing
Old man on his knees
Ragged glory
Evil breeds
Strapped by the angels
Freed by hate
Murder spree
Drop your Gods and your primitive religion
Worship our land
Practice diminished
Slaves of the free world
Man made hunger
Bile and vulgar
Kneel
Brave new world
In the shadow of your mysterious death
Slave new world
Little by little the night turns around
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn
Lotuses lean on each other in yearning
Over the hills a swallow is resting
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Over the mountain watching the watcher
Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine
Knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow
Love is the shadow that ripens the wine
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Witness the man who wanes at the wall
Making the shape of his question to heaven
Whether the sun will fall in the evening
Will he remember the lesson of giving
Wrath, aches
Are all that's left
Mistakes I made up to now
Are the reason I hate myself
I can't tell if the world is losing me
Or if the world has made me lose it
(Will I outlive the coming sunrise?
Was this the last of my tomorrows?
Do you think I had it coming?
I'm dead to pain I'm numb to sorrows)
I can't decide when I died
Proud, march
Towards the dark horizon
No company to comfort me
My game is over
It's time I brought the curtains down
My play is done my crowd's all gone
I can't decide when I died
It's time I brought the curtains down
My play is done my crowd's all gone
I can't tell if the world is losing me
It's fact we can not, can not be immortals.
Not all is science, yet.
Rumors of resurrected individuals,
Remain just rumors.
Science on a spree
Cracking secrets of our troubled evolution.
In the longest running play
To beat death
We stand in for God.
God less,
God like,
God bless,
God Damn,
God sent,
Tree of knowledge.
Play mate,
Play ground,
Play dead,
Play God,
Until the end.
שרוי לנו, מחול לנו, מותר לנו,
מפי בית דין של מעלה.
Science can not answer for all that is out there.
A temporary state... Perpetual debate.
Man made men march towards obscurity,
Numbered binary flesh.
On a control freak on a leash's demand list;
A slave free world.
לעולם אדוני דברך ניצב בשמים.
שרוי לנו ולכם ומחול לנו ולכם ומותר לנו ולכם.
(Houston we have a problem)
This song will fester inside your little head
If time allows it, at a later date
This song is a testimony of what we were force fed
Beaten, battered and left for dead.
Cat and mice play dice underneath your bedroom window
To slice and dice and raise the price of war orphans and widows
I am the rage of a generation - misled, gone astray
I am the voice of liberation about to break the chain
Born for no good reason, made to feel at home
Words of the wise
to self improve your lives
Who else will wipe your tears
as time goes by
Lies
to ease your existence
to make a small fortune
you're told to leave behind
Inhuman greed
Prey on the weak
Lose your soul
Before the meek
Inhuman greed
Before you sleep at night in your mansion
Do you practice what you preach?
Do you belive the lie?
Lie to the helpless
to make a small fortune
to set example
be featured on prime TV
On your knees - come for me
If I bring the cash you'll comfort me
You wish for pain to come for me
to come again and comfort me
Inhuman greed
Prey on the weak
Lose your soul
Berate the meek
Time is seeping between my hands.
The clock is ticking.
Days fly by.
Time is seeping into my thoughts.
There's no mistaking what's to come.
I live my life.
I have no choice.
No voice.
The line's not getting any shorter.
The road we're taking is straight and narrow.
Looking forward.
Nothing is clear.
Time is seeping
Between my hands
The clock is ticking
Day fly by
Time is seeping into my thoughts
There's no mistaking
What's to come
I live my life
I have no choice
No voice
The lines not getting
Any shorter
The road we're taking
Is strait and narrow
Looking forward nothing is clear
One thing is certain
The end is near
I live my life
I have no choice
Flames
Rage from above
Untamed
The ground shake below
Set the earth on fire
Set the earth on fire
Leave behind yesterday
Look ahead far away
Dive into a sea of tears
99 the worst of years
Crazed
Prophet of despair
Amazed
Truth in his words
Set the earth on fire
Set the earth on fire
Leave behind yesterday
Look ahead far away
Dive into a sea of tears
99 the worst of years
Flames
Rage in his eyes
Untamed
Visions in his mind
Set the earth on fire
Set the earth on fire
Leave behind yesterday
Look ahead far away
Dive into a sea of tears
Men and people will fight you down
When you see Jah light
Let me tell you if you're not wrong
Everything is all right
So we gonna walk through the roads of creation
We the generation
Trod through great tribulation
Exodus
Movement of Jah people
Open your eyes and look within
Are you satisfied with the life you're living?
We know where we're going
We know where we're from
We're leaving Babylon
We're going to our Father land
Exodus
Movement of Jah people
Send us another Moses
From across the Red Sea
Jah come break downpression
Rule equality
Wipe away transgression
When our voice has been muted
And our flesh is met with steel... See More
When a quick end seems like an option
Our trampled dignity takes with bliss
The contemptible, the dispirited
Prayed for years, something answered
The dejected, the faltered, Say it's time to
Dance to the beat of a different drum
Dance to the beat of the drums of the dead
In trance pounding your life away
The long forgotten dead are longing for home
Drums of the dead, the beat's in your head
If you survive the middle passage
Loss of Freedom will be your gain
Loss of family, your own humanity
From now on you'll pray for death
The contemptible, the dispirited
Prayed for years, something answered
The dejected, the faltered, Say it's time to
Dance to the beat of a different drum
Dance to the beat of the drums of the dead
In trance pounding your life away
The long forgotten dead are longing for home
Flaming skies of dawn
Churning perception
Life is just a game you care no more to master
Tarnished hopes, broken dreams pile and hide the sun
Blinked, and now you are gone
Dark cries fill the sky
Dead eyes multiply
Broken spine, fear shrine
Dear cries, perversions of the divine
Alone in this maze of shadows and errors
with no will to live in everlasting sorrow
Truth is a lie to deceive your heart
Carnage paradise
Poetic indifference
Dont speak of God
as if it's one
We, who lost a son think of it as none
Now you live on in my mind
As a memory - buried deep inside
Fighting for your rights
Speak in numbers
Calculate
Don't you dare break all which I fake
Chips and numbers grind my life away
to fuel my hate for you
Cheers to our demise
While you kill time - cyberspacing
Time is killing you - hyperaging
Serve the master you created
Paint the A. dream Washington green
Decadence in soiltude
Time to bring the empire down
Now you are under a virtual spell
Slaves to your own invention
Life slips away
Slowly despair creeps in
While you kill time - cyberspacing
In the eyes of death there is no difference between me and you
And though you feel hatred
Our mortality bounds us, bounds us
My days are fragile
I am at a loss
with the knowledge of our impending end
The weapons we bear are the symbols off our collective demise
Devised by our kindred
Show the world and your masses
Blood of the butchered you have slain
Behold, the coming end of reason
Death is a better way of life
Throw yourself at the mercy of the dead who seek revange
When blood is seen in haven
God knows his creature's gone insaine
Find no shelter from their wrath
Hate will lead you underground
Mark of glory - quiet maind
Brain dead leaders, out of line
Throw yourself at the mercy of the dead who seek revange
When blood is seen in haven
God knows his creature's gone insaine
You heed the words of the demented
Used as puppets in thier play of lies, hate and destruction
In the midst of joyful time
The strongest realization struck me
The time of my death is pre-conceived
And however plentiful
My days are numbered
I believe in god
My soul will never die
I beg you don't let me go
It can't all disappear
It's in my mind
What would you do if you were to know
The date that's reserved only for you
Would it drive you out of your mind
Would it drive you out of your soul
I believe in god
My soul will never die
I beg you don't let me go
It can't all disappear
You can't convince me
That everything is simply there
With it's fabulous creatures
Was created by a greater force
A greater scheme binds everything
Of this I'm sure I'm certain
In another dimension our souls live and breath
And there they are eternal
I believe in god
It's in my mind
My soul will never die
It's in my mind
I beg you don't let me go
I don't believe
Red blood, bad blood, cold blood, sad blood
Bloody all the way.
Blue blood, pure blood, mud blood, come blood
Wash blood stains away.
Draw blood, no blood, young blood, dried blood,
Snow blood, hot blood, you drew first blood.
Your drew first blood,
Having no victim, I find it odd.
(They say that blood is thicker then water,
I say that shit is thicker than blood.
You kept your word to the other world
So now we bleed and die.)
You kept your word to the other world,
It was a blast you didn't last
(Blood signed odium.
manufacture mutated revulsion
But he who swore to live by the sword,
His blood will spill forever more.)
You kept your word to the other world
It was a blast you didn't last.
To see the day the prophets say
Armageddon call to end it all.
Open the gates of hell!
Red blood, bad blood, cold blood, sad blood
Bloody all the way.
Blue blood, pure blood, mud blood, come blood
Wash blood stains away.
Draw blood, no blood, young blood, dried blood,
A spineless reign shows signs of fear of the enemy
Divide the land, tear out the heart of the nation
A war declared by a state on its citizens
It's our last stand:
We head straight to Amona!
We love our fatherland
Yet fear our government
Once on a mission but now banned
Keep getting high while we descend
Time's running out, maybe we are forsaken
By an ancient God whose anger has overtaken
His sense of pride his promise for the chosen!
We can not hide the monster you have awakened
We love our fatherland
Yet fear our government
Once on a mission but now banned
Keep getting high while we descend
This is the end, we will be gone by sunrise
We won't be dead thus we will walk among you
And find high courts who're pretty low on justice
"Al taster paneha mimeni beyom tsar li
Hate elay, ealy ozneha beyom ekra maher aneni"
Translation:
"Don't conceal your face away from me in a my day of grief
It seems only yesterday,
I lost them all.
Years have past me by
And time can't heal this loss.
Bear your prayers for thier souls.
Bear your prayers for thier souls.
It seems only yesterday,
Hope was somewhere else.
Far away,
And the nightmare was life itself.
Bear your prayers for thier souls.
I know that memories can't be shared,
But I suffer a pain that isn't mine.
Somewhere, in the back of my thiughts,
Lost in thoughts of the past,
The anguish of the years
Darkness is my only friend,
Darkness hides my tears.
I've lost the only light,
The embers fade and die.
The memories of days long gone
Refuse to ignite.
Lost in thoughts of the past,
The anguish of the years.
Darkness is my only friend,
Darkness hides my tears.
I've lost the only light,
The embers fade and die.
But why?
Can this be all that's left?
This love has gone amiss.
And why am i left to die,
To perish here for all to see?
Why? Can this be all that's left?
She is the fear of th future.
Rising out from the womb,
A black, looming figure.
The white, bloody sheets.
Her eyes, gripped with terror.
Our fate is so uncertain,
But still we bear the offspring.
How shall I face the future
In a world of hate and disease?
The blood inside is pure,
Sheltered by the womb,
Birth is stained with blood
That is no longer pure.
She is the fear of th future.
Rising out from the womb,
Cry out for one soul,
The only one that could ever hear,
Only one whose ears are brave
Enough to listen to the beat of a heart.
Try to find a pair of eyes,
Eyes to match a soul.
The sweat meets my tears,
The salt blinds me.
You are there, I know it,
I can sense the throbbing pain.
I catch a glimpse of sparkling eyes,
Then I see the eyes no more.
Try to find a pair of eyes,
Times flies,
It stays up high above the ground.
I try to come to terms
With my future tense.
I despise conformity,
The lies, the clenched fists.
I wish that I could feel,
Touch of sanity.
I wish that I could,
Touch of sanity.
Lies of concrete.
As hard as stone, as cold as steel.
Dry bones, broken.
Help me, please, I need to feel.
Times flies,
It stays up high above the ground.
I try to come to terms
With my future tense.
They want me to die.
The memory of pain I've known,
Piercing, poignant pain.
I vow to never feel again.
I despise conformity,
The lies, the clenched fists.
I wish that I could feel,
screams of death
it's happened again
the nightmare has been revived
old wounds re-opened
desecrating of the graves
and the writing on the wall
power of hatred
can turn the wheels back again
france - destroy the ancient tombs
england - riots in the streets
russia - property was burned
what happened to the human race?
is their hate so strong that they cannot feel?
millions of bodies buried in the earth
turn inside their graves
their holy sleep has been distrurbed
the pounding walls of fear
beating, pulsing in my head
rising and descending
like ritual panic
my entire being becomes
engulfed, encircled
in a never ending maze
of sound and sight
lungs enhale the vacuum
the nothingness of the unknown
inhaling the fear that forever flows
pulsing, beating, rushing from my heart
no escape, petrified, paralized
pulses of blood beat harder within
the black outer skin of a grotesque charade
masquerade in airless cell
Screaming on the edge of the void.
Silent, only I hear the scream.
Grasping my hands, white from the fear.
Burning the sky, more red than blood.
Escape is impossible now,
Hopeless, the world itself is screaming.
Burning skies roar like flames,
Whirling oceans heave in storm.
Grasping my hands, white from the fear.
Burning the sky, more red than blood.
Escape is impossible now,
Hopeless, the world itself is screaming.
The edge of the void.
Darkness is setting over my mind,
I awake, but the nightmare remains.
My life is fading,
All that's left are memories.
Vestige from the past.
A fire-storm of fear.
I'm shadow of a man.
One foot in the grave.
I remember times of chaos.
A fire-storm of fear.
Nothing can escape
From mortality.
Man begins to feed on Man.
Wanted by demons of the past.
I remember times of chaos.
A fire-storm of fear.
Nothing can escape
From mortality.
The leaders talk and talk.
But nothing can escape the avalanche.
I am the eyes of my new religion
You are it's heart and soul
You are the new face on my new television
About to take control
(What do we leave behind but painful memories?
What'll be on my mind when heart and blood flow cease?)
I am the arms of my new religion
Your part makes me whole
Your show is top rated on my television
Sucks me in like a black hole
I wish my breath could roam inside you
And dissipate all fear
I hope you'll let our home surround you
Even when we're not here
I am the mouth of my new religion
You're the actor with the lead role
Someone please turn on my new television
Guarding life is my main goal
(Was there a point in time you felt at your prime?
Was life a progressive clime or just a successive decline?)
I'll gladly die for my new religion
All for one and one for all
There's only truth on my brand new television
Life's a never ending ball
I wish my breath could roam inside you
And dissipate all fear
I hope you'll let our home surround you
Even when we're not here
I am the eyes
You are the soul
I am your life
You are my all
This was my entire agenda
There goes your lullaby
A day will come and you'll comprehend it
For now this was my fair goodbye
(One small step for men,
I'm aching
So tell me what's shaking
Watching from the bushes, I'm patient
Still like a stone but my mind ain't vacant
I'm waiting, I'm waiting
Breathing in deep through my nose wind as it blows
Got there on my own ain't no roads where I want to go
Picking up a stone for a throw then let it go
Lone tonight with flowers I never know
Hell moving round in my face as I'm looking down
Down out of town and all that is around
Down is the place by the lake where she drowned
Down is the place little houses can be found
Now all the windows with the lights on looking similar
This end to me, it's routine, it's familiar
Start to get a feeling about where my two lights are
These niggas calling me, it'd be rude if I don't go
Started to decent from the ridge with my eyes fixed
On those lights and my feet stepping on sticks
"I'm coming, I'll be there soon"
And when I get there I'mma tear apart the room
See now I'm from the hills wich is where I first began
To the side of the house which is where I now stand
The edge of the rules and the long way between them
This house is safe it got nothing to fear (yeah)
So if you catch your window smashed something gon' snap (damn)
And what they lose they couldn't get back (nope)
Dirt across the floor like it started from nowhere
Water pipe howling let them know what's out there
For what they're about to lose they have no understanding
And my prison stint, left more damage in the can
I move through the house, all nerve all sheet
Nah, I ain't trying to look back
My expectation has my mouth run dry
I see a bitch run but I doubt she know why
I doubt she know fire
But I could introduce
All it takes is matches and just a little juice
All your flow patches your brains fucked up
Ya looked like you been baked too much
You could bake too much
I think too much
It's why I take it off and be the dog when we fuck
Bitch watch me take a shower, put powder on your butt
That lines for me do not touch
You could wear them heels but just don't touch the clothes
Another fifteen minutes put more powder up your nose
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Turning shit around, maybe I should leave ya
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Turning things around, baby I should leave ya.
Ok, maybe I should go
But where's there to go
I walk for half an hour
Bitch I don't know
I go anywhere, I'm not going home
And the headlights in the night look bright
I'm done I'm bored I'm sick of this night
Heather get the knife
I can't feel it, no
I can't feel shit
And when the sun rises we be watching
Top of the mountain, John boy smoking
Long way from the ground sure ain't bad
Gimme a hit of that, lemme hit the crack
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Turning shit around, maybe I should leave ya
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Turning things around, baby I should leave ya.
Really nice son, fuck you talking about
I'm trying to numb the pain til my brain falls out
I'm a city nigga I was born in the streets
And I grew up and I knew I could perform in the streets
Now in the wood, still can't sleep
Me and my dog lay and wait for weeks
My eyes don't close, he don't bark, I don't speak
Try to disappear so the nigga don't ease
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Turning shit around, maybe I should leave ya
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Turning things around, baby I should leave ya.
Aye, yeah hey John boy, I know you feel what I'm slaying out there
I know you see motherfuckers and be like
What you suicidal about? I bring it
It's like people say we all gonna die
But me is different I'm not trying to be alive
I's try to get high
Baby that's just my desire
Now I'm pulling a sheet over my face before I die
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Turning shit around, maybe I should leave ya
It's all blurred out aye bitch I can't see ya
Can't understand what is wrong with me,
How on Earth can you st me free?
Where are the times I was in control?
Open the gate to my fucking world.
The one that no one knows.
Only lies survive,
Reason is no excuse.
He's inside of me,
The one that no one knows.
I've lost my mind.
You'll never find
Peace in these eyes.
I can't disguise
Flames that burn within.
Devouring
My sanity.
This is not me.
Can't understand what is wrong with me,
How on Earth can you st me free?
Where are the times I was in control?
Open the gate to my fucking world.
The one that no one knows.
Only lies survive,
Reason is no excuse.
He's inside of me,
The one that no one knows.
Struggle against my impulses.
Against my will, imprisonment.
I am confined within myself.
When autumn leaves are falling
Nature's calling me to stay at home
And if the rain is pouring
My heart's soring and I'm all alone
I wish I could be understood
It's only fair but they all stare
I'm at a loss at such a cost
I wish that you were here to stay
Say that it isn't so
Don't tell me that it's time to go
Don't ever be the one to know
Just say that it isn't so
In winter's tear when no one's near
I find condolence in the past
I reminisce and then get pissed
Her image haunts me like a ghost
I wish I could be understood
It's only fair but they all stare
I'm at a loss at such a cost
I wish that you were here to stay
Say that it isn't so
Don't tell me that it's time to go
Don't ever be the one to know
Just say that it isn't so
When autumn leaves are falling
Nature's calling me to stay at home
And if the rain is pouring
My heart's soring and I'm all alone
I wish I could be understood
It's only fair but they all stare
I'm at a loss at such a cost
I wish that you were here to stay
Say that it isn't so
Don't tell me that it's time to go
Don't ever be the one to know
Slow descent towards dependency
So intent to fulfill the prophecy
Maternal recession
Into infancy
Undividable grip
Irreversible lock
Alone I die
Symbiosis
Your warm embraces - release me
Devide me not - erase me
Ours are sister souls - for we are one
I am the seed within - devour me
Make one move
Just one step
And I 'm torn apart
I 'm torn apart
Slow descent towards dependency
So intent to fulfill the prophecy
Maternal recession
Into infancy
Undividable grip
Irreversible lock
Alone I die
There's more than 24 hours of pain (hours of pain)
Present in every passing day (so i watch what i say)
So i watch what i say
Life is a strife
Time's worth a dime
Both of which I have none
It's a sign
Re-align
Although at my prime I live like slime
Once upon
Skeleton
A ladder to climb not for real just in mime
You can cry
You can sigh
But life will go on and leave you behind
There's more than 60 minutes of hell (minutes of hell)
Present each hour I know it so well so (I fear my death bell)
So I fear my death bell
Life is a strife...
There's less than 60 seconds of sin (seconds of sin)
I counted in one minute's grin (there is no way to win)
There is no way to win
Before you end your life
Recall all that you've done
Striving for wealth to gain some more power
All of which is now gone
No rest in your afterlife
Now we are left with a weapon
to be used in our Russian Roulette
Being self centered brings mass destruction
This is the world you helped create
No reat in your afterlife
No one can leave this place
A planet in chaos, unsafe
Rest in pieces
Rest in war
Why were you so dumb?
Ruining the future for the ones you love
Now you begin your redemption
Your rooting corpse will fertilize the earth
If no one follows your hollow ways
There is a new chance for rebirth
Fold up my thoughts, tuck them away.
Drink for the pain, drink it away.
Turn the key that hides
The devil's tongue, the vicious side.
The surgeons cut is fine.
These wounds may heal in time.
But still the edges fray.
And when she's gone, I'll know she's safe.
The walls are caving in.
To crush the state I'm in.
So sew the noose with my lies and my shame.
Disappear from sight, to make all things right .
We filled all our days the same.
We shared a sacred thrust, I cast it into flames.
Revealed a fragile hide.
My selfish ways killed her inside.
So turn my picture down.
In days I'll leave this town.
And when I do, you'll stay.
Cause when I'm gone, I know I'm safe.
The walls are caving in.
To crush the state I'm in.
So sew the noose with my lies and my shame.
One year away, one year has passed
The smoke and mirrors have damaged my faith and trust in you,
To understand my dreams, you threw it away
A blind eye to the signs
Has ruined the taste of this tired game
(Chorus)
You tried to hold this night so tight,
But no no no, I'm tired of this fight
I'm tired it's over, over
My hands have been in chains
I'm tired it's over, over!
And once you feel the same you'll understand
So turn back all the clocks and set your sight
Tell me do your wrists feel right?
With blood mixed in your pain,
Once they heal you won't feel the same
And this mishapen road, will let you go, why don't you go?
Step back, leave me now, please leave me now, my thoughts are sour
I'm scared of what I'll do tonight,
With clouded thoughts of angered spite
(Chorus)
...that this is make believe
This arguement achieves nothing but the worst towards everything,
We fought so hard now,
So dry your pretty eyes
They're sparkeling tonight
Through the pain and shame and even though we are through
I still feel the same, I still feel the same
I can't ignore that we don't work
The only thing I do is hurt and,
Tear apart your fragile heart
And leave you needing more from silence
Everytime we take a fall we can't get up and,
Everytime you need it all, I offer nothing
I never am - And never was -
Tender moments are a test to step
Lively through this dark divide
Falling over ourselves,
I kiss the ground 'till the pain subsides
Staggering and stammered are these words,
Do we so speak loud enough to make sure we're heard?
The truth and the meaning are corrupt and deceiving from spite
And we've yet to determine who's right
[Chorus]
I'm trying - Screaming at the walls she's crying!
The tainted wings of a saint are hard to mend
Under the veil of this evening's pretense
Exact you bitterness and lay me out
On your bed of nails
Because the harder we try and the harder we push
Is the way that we fail
I've opened up my veins of thruth to you
Strafe the scars and the pain, now they're cut like new
Your trust is wanning
Caught in the rain and the blood is streaming
Drape the room in shades of grey
Over pastel greens they are running
Like the ours of the day,
Seemingly they run to nothing
Burn the midnight oil,
Turn the lights down to a whisper
Feeling so alone
Try your hardest not to miss her
The twilights throwing pounding rain,
Let it in, let it in,
Queen of hearts relentless screams,
Let it in, let it in
Salt stung eyes,
Brighton's water shine
Knock me off my feet
Defeat has etched the lines upon my face
Falling faster in this race
Failing at the only life I know
[Chorus]
Turn the stones to purpose, turn to stones over
Take me to that English sea, don't leave me
Call me Minos,
Call me fallen saints with pagan names
My demons pulling strings,
I thought this tour could hide
I thought that I could hide
Failing at the only life I know
[Chorus]
Sifting sands with hands still dirty
screams of death
it's happened again
the nightmare has been revived
old wounds re-opened
desecrating of the graves
and the writing on the wall
power of hatred
can turn the wheels back again
france - destroy the ancient tombs
england - riots in the streets
russia - property was burned
what happened to the human race?
is their hate so strong that they cannot feel?
millions of bodies buried in the earth
turn inside their graves
their holy sleep has been distrurbed
Sick people suffer from pain
There is no hope for them to live
The only wish for them is to die
The religious don''t respect their last wish
Sick people don''t have any hope to live
They die slowly with a lot of pain and agony
Slow death - pray to die
Slow death - let us die.
Respect our last wish
We can decide for ourselves
Every day, torture in their minds
How long will it take for them to die?
They want to stop the pain
But it''s not up to them
The religious are now in charge
The doctors say cut off the machine
The religious say it''s a sin
Now they are sitting and arguing,
Is it right to cut off the machine?
But they forget one thing -
What the sick people feel
The answer doesn''t come from religion
[Hook]
6 car pile up, just a mile up
Sick sick sick sick
(Repeat)
Eyes on me, dreams on me
I'm waiting tables
When I am so able
When shit don't sound stable
My label accomplished it
I'm goin take over this
In fact, I warned you bitch
I'll make your tummy sick
I'm on some evil shit
Own this shit, scheme this shit
Demons talk to me
So thats who I'm leaving with
If you can't feed a bitch
Then you don't need a bitch
I'mma slit your wrist...
I'mma slit your wrist...
Be quiet little lamb
I need you for tonight
Wanna take a ride with me?
No thats the wrong seat
First I tie your hands and feet
Shh, don't make a peep
From the trunk they can see
They be bouncing with the beat
[Hook]
Cars in a circle
Little lamb in the middle
All the head lights, so bright
He ain't cast a shadow off
(Repeat)
I'm goin put bruises on some other fine bitch
I walk in and licked it
And this is so vicious
I gave it and hold it
But no you don't need it
So give that shit raw bitch
You get down for me
I'mma break your neck up and have it so fast
I need you to know you bout to fall out Sophina
And when I grow old and shit
Young bloods still know this shit
There is more evil then sits in the corridor
I'm on some coke, and some dope
And that coping shit
Gimme that codeine fast
I wan't that numbing shit
Evil round goes around
Peaking in doors and shit
Looking for ho's
Lebanon - soldiers fight
Lebanon - terrorists die
Lebanon - violence in the air
Lebanon - fire in the sky
Lebanon - there''s more mess than hell
Lebanon - why, why?
Israel - terrorists hijacked a bus
Israel - terrorists murdered a child
Israel - buried the child
Israel - the family cries, they lost their child
So - Lebanon,
Lebanon - why, why??
... I''ll tell you why -
Fucking terrorists kill a little child
Three years old little child
They all forget - children don''t fight
They all forget - children want to live
Russia - are against Israel
England - doesn''t understand
Syria - starts to fight
America - sends messengers
But they all forget - children don''t fight
So Lebanon - why, why??
... I''ll tell you why -
Fucking terrorists kill a little child
Three years old little child
The King And I
Miscellaneous
Song Of The King
KING
A woman is a female who is human,
Designed for pleasing man, the human male.
A human male is pleased by many women,
And all the rest you hear is fairy tale.
ANNA
Then tell me how this fairy tale began, sir.
You cannot call it just a poet's trick
Explain to me why many men are faithful
And true to one wife only.
KING
(Spoken) They are sick!
(Singing) A girl must be like a blossom
With honey for just one man.
A man must be like honey bee
And gather all he can.
To fly from blossom to blossom
A honey bee must be free,
But blossom must not ever fly
They're running their mouths about original sin again.
Somehow we're similar simians, on a steady diet of carcinogens.
We'll be the weathermen, warning of the black skies ahead.
Broadcasting live from the City of the Dead. The forecast is for hail,
locusts and falling anvils bring common sense and science to a standstill.
Watch as witches burn, fanatics setting fire to the foundation,
playing duck season/rabbit season with our children's education.
The barbarians are at the gates, that's my diagnosis.
If they make it past the barricades, before the drawbridge closes,
there will be no cause to celebrate, there will be no throwing roses.
The same racist god that sanctioned truncheons and hoses at Selma.
The god of bloodied scalps and broken noses,
of back alley abortions and voided civil unions.
So remember the next time you're kneeling for communion:
They want us locked down and mute.
And they're still burning books so why not follow suit,
and set fire to their treatises and stale superstitions.
Chorus:
In the hell of Salem
Where mystery reigns
Problem after problem
In the town of witches
What are you doing, walking like this
Through the winding streets of Salem?
Here there's nothing but night and madness
You can feel the power of Salem
They make sacrifices
They sing diabolical songs
They can hear the witches calling
Lucifer their master
Fresh blood on his hands
They trace the cursed sign
And burn evil candle
In the shadows of the town
Chorus
The Stars are all in place
The ritual can begin
A magic fire in her eyes
They start the cursed song
Thinking twisted thoughts
Their voices rise toward the darkened sky
Across the threshold of hell
And give themselves to the demons
Chorus
You're frightened you are lost
You are lost in the hell of Salem
You're frightened you are lost
You are lost in Lucifer's domain
Chorus
