If there's anything that you want
If there's anything that you need
There's no need to be evasive
Money talks and it's persuasive
Possession
Now you're sending me your best wishes
Signed with love and vicious kisses
You lack lust, you're so lacklustre
Is that all the strength you can muster
Possession
Even when we are out of touch
Now I know that I've seen too much
Seen too much
So I see us lying back to back
My case is closed my case is packed
I'll get out before the violence
Or the tears or the silence
Possession
All I need in my life
Just one love I can count on tonight
In the dark , oh
Am I crazy to think we belong
It's possession
Oh baby , possession
Possession
Baby , what I wouldn't give for possession
Oh baby , possession
Sweet obsession
Baby I'd lay down my life
I can't fake masquerades
Your disguises just make me afraid
Yesterday , oh
I was facing a future alone, oh
It's possession
Oh baby , possession
Possession
You know I would sell you my soul for possession
Oh baby , possession
Sweet confession
You know I would lay down my life
Oh what I'd do for possession
You know I'd break every rule in the book
Ooh what I'd do for an answer from you today
When I'd pay any price for you
Twenty-four hours a day
Possession
It's crazy what people will do for possession
Oh baby , possession
Sweet obsession
You know I would lay down my life for possession
Oh baby , possession
Sweet confession
You know I would sell you my soul for possession
Oh baby , possession
All I need in my life
Just one love I can count on tonight
In the dark , oh
Am I crazy to think we belong
It's possession

Oh baby , possession
Sweet confession
You know I would sell you my soul for possession
Oh baby , possession
Sweet obsession (fade out )
The other one feeds on my hesitation
Grows inside of my trepidaton
Buries his claws in my dislocation
I whisper your name to lose control
I take a step and over my shoulder
His roll-white (???) eyes shine wilder and bolder
His snow-white thighs press closer and colder
Murmer in me to let him go
The other one thrives on my desperation
Fills me up with my intoxication
Sinks his teeth in my deviation
Suffering me to lose control
Hold my mouth taste his breath
Hissing breathing are the same (???)
Snakes its sound inside my head
Sickening me to let him go
I take a step and over my shoulder
His pain-white eyes shine wilder and bolder
His stain-white thighs press closer and colder
Murdering me to let him go
I try to resist the gruesome kiss
I twist to deny the blood-hot bliss
But I always feel myself becoming him
And the last thing I remember
It isn't me -- it isn't me -- it isn't me
But then it never is...

But I always feel myself becoming him
And the last thing I remember
It isn't me, it isn't me, it isn't me
Listen as the wind blows
from across the great divide,
Voices trapped in yearning,
memories trapped in time,
The night is my companion
and solitude my guide,
Would I spend forever here
and not be satisfied?
And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear
Through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed,
Trying to find an honest word,
to find the truth enslaved,
Oh you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to me in rhyme
My body aches to breathe your breath,
you words keep me alive,
And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear
Into this night I wander,
it's morning that I dread,
Another day of knowing of
the path I fear to tread,
Oh into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride,
Nothing stands between us here
and I won't be denied
And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
How much do you want? How much do you need?
How wide is the gap between possession and greed?
Anyone in particular thinks in terms of how much more he needs to earn
To afford the dubious luxury of being able to boast that he could do it free
But it all takes a very long time indeed to reach the achievements set
By the time he possesses all the things
That he wants he'll have forgotten what he set out to get
How much is enough? Do you need a bit more?
How wide is the gap between now and before?
There's not much difference in the way he lives
And the empty satisfaction that possession gives
Storing it all for a sense of success
When he's got time to look back if there is any time left
Cos it all takes a very long time indeed to amass all the needs to be met
Unless you consider that all that you really need
Is something to eat
Is something to breathe
Something to there when you leane
Is something to drink
Is something to say
If there's anything that you want
If there's anything that you need
And there's no need to be evasive
Money talks and it's persuasive, yeah
Possession
Possession
Possession
Now you're sending me your best wishes, Lord
Signed with love and vicious kisses
And you lack lust, you're so lacklustre
Is all the strength that you can muster, yeah
Possession
Possession
Possession
And even when we are out of touch
And now I know that I've seen too much
Seen too much, yeah
Now I see us lying back to back, yeah
My case is closed my case is packed
I'll get out before the violence
Or the tears or the silence, yeah
Possession, y'all Lord
Possession, ah, ah, ah, oh
Possession
I could take your life Full on genocide
Take me for a ride I'll pay you ride
It's all in my sight Want me fired
Smash my face on glass I can't resist
Tearing down and fucking you Time will
show you who I am Here lies the guy
with the really big mouth
too bad I had to shut it I hated
to have to stomp that motherfucker
but he had it comin' You got it comin'
That's right you heard what I said
One of my greatest fears is "It."
I can't touch "it," but I can feel "it."
It does not have a taste or smell,
But I can hear it in my spirit
It is deep inside of me,
It makes me fear my memory
One day I'll live peacefully,
Without the fear of "It"
It is something I can't see
It can never possess me
It always tries to take control
I can defeat it if I believe it
It keeps running through my mind,
I have to fight it time and time
And time and time and time
And time again...
The more I understand about it
The less my world revolves around it
Then I can just live out my life
I want to crawl inside your soul
Nestle in your brain
Stand you on your head
Crouch you on all fours
Oh, I will walk among your dreams
When you think you are asleep
The invitation of your mind
Beckons me to your sin
All the things that you say and feel
For I will be inside your speech
Say the words you must not say
For I will lurk inside your heart
If you can take it and survive
As it must ever be, oppression
It's ever been, through my oppressive black sleeping
It has always been, possession
As it must always be
All the things that you say and feel
Become possession, riding
Possession, riding you hard
Possession, riding you on, yeah
Well I will worm inside your skull
Make you beg to be my whore
Do my bidding day and night
If you can take it and survive
As it must ever be, opppression
It's ever been, through my oppressive black sleeping
It has always been possession
As it must always be
All the things that you say and feel
Become possession, riding
Possession, riding you hard
Possession, riding onto you
Possession, riding
Possession, riding you hard
Sing to me my muses
Lost in the hot cyclops anarchy
Possession
Invention
Blood, blood
Spirits, spirits
Sprits, spirits
Come, come
Where will these visions lead?
How far dare i go?
Where will this song take me?
Into the deep unknown
Yeah
Spirits, spirits
Come, come
All the prophets and the gods came prepared for theirs
So we dine on divine of the mind impaired
Preaching werewolf prayers on a nightly flight
It's taken all we ate in the pale moonlight
Feel the urge of the power surge connect us all
Bringing kingdoms under siege with the words that i control
Got an arsenal, ganja blunts and such
Only love can set me free from this patriotic quest
Speaking testaments in our secret dialogue
While the drones begin to feast on the feces of the hog
Walk in the wilderness of the mind
Soul decides to die and leave infinity behind
Possession, invention
Invite discovery
Surrender to pleasures
Lost in ecstasy
Survive
Alive you are my enemy
You die for lies, slave to misery
Down on the battleground
Laying wasted competition
I'm collecteng intellects and exhaling solar systems
I decree mutiny
It's revolution us against the patriarchy
The assembler of souls, full of knowledge untold
While i'm spinning webs of wisdom prophecies unfold
Into attack mode to decipher the code
Of babylon's terror spawn, tyranny reloads
Mental states apathy erases
Urgency of rage in its frightening little places
Prepare for warfare
The afterbirth of knowledge is america's nightmare
Yeah
Possession, invention
Invite discovery
Surrender to pleasures
Lost in ecstasy
Survive
Alive you are my enemy
You die for lies, slave to misery
Sometimes i sit and ask myself what have i become?
What have i become?
What... have i become?
What... have i become?
What... have i become?
What have i become?
Something's taking over me
Something's taking over me
Something's taking over me
Something's taking over me
You paint your face with the blood of the weak
Self sacrifice everyone you meet
Scream at demons in my face
Theres voices of the dead nurturing my pain
I survive, i'm alive
I render fever to watch you burn
Kill your leaders to help you learn
POSSESSION

Carrion child,
Prey for me,play your
Wild card, see the house come down around your
Head, home to me, so much dreaming
Some say 'm growing cold and
Taking over
Nothing, cuts, two ways.....
Possession: taking over
Stand these pictures on your shelf
And wear your heart upon my sleeve,
Wear a dress that you can see through,
See yourself inside;
I'll be your imagination,
Tear apart what you believe,
Make a mess of your conviction,
Take away my pride and leave,
Nothing, but the debris,
Cuts, two ways,
Carrion child,
Prey for me, play your
Wild card, see the house come down around your
Possession: taking over.....
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake;
Possession: taking over.....
Somehow the fact takes over, and the fiction coming through,
Somehow I do my crying breaking down for you,
This way doubt takes over, contradiction coming through,
This way I do my lying, making up and making out for you.....
Possession: taking over
Child(nothing)
Prey for me(but the debris)

Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake
Possession: taking over.....
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake
There's such a beautiful mess up in my room
My thoughts are tangled in the legs of chairs
I like to think that it's my token of genius
But then again perhaps I just don't care.
I'm going crazy with the speed of living
I'm leaving parts of me all over the place
I think I've found a piece that looks like my heart
But then again maybe it's just my face.
Possession, possession, paying the price
Possession, possession, run for my life.
I charge my dreams up with the cheapest batteries
The light goes out and everything looks dim
I stumble 'round pretending that I'm dancing
Doing fine until the truth breaks in.
Cameras are thieves, they always take my picture
A tape-recorder stole my voice today
I think machines and clocks have secret motives
But then again (maybe they're made that way).
Possession, possession, paying the price
Possession, possession, run for my life.
I paint my shirt with all the latest outrages
Just like I did so many years before
It drives me to the brink of pink disaster
But I don't mind, that's what possession's for.
Possession, possession, paying the price
It doesn't trouble me
So why should it trouble you
Save your roses for the dead
I'll lick the honey from your thorns
I'm feeling up
I'm looking down
My angels beat my devils
Now I'll lay my doubts in waste
What I believe
Is what I need
What I believe
Can't be convicted
By a rhyme without a reason
Someone always loves you
Even if it is yourself
Below my dick
There's neither truth or religion
My indignance has flown
To better things
What I believe
Is what I need
What I believe
Is keepin' my spirit alive
[Chorus:]
Give me
Give me possession
When will you learn to let it ride
You got no guts
You'll get no glory child
Your rusty soul bleeds Coca-cola blood
And you try to tell me
It's the real thing
What I believe
Is what I need
Is keeping my spirit alive
[Chorus]
Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide
Voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time
The night is my companion, and solitude my guide
Will I spend forever here and not be satisfied?
And I will be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after, I'd wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
Through this world I've stumbled
So many times betrayed
Trying to find an honest word to find
The truth decayed
yeah, you speak to me in riddles and
You speak to me in rhymes
My body aches to breathe your breath
Your words keep me alive
And I will be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after, I'd wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
Thru this night I stumble
It's morning that I dread
Another day of knowing of
The path I fear to tread
Into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
Nothing stands between us here
And I won't be denied
And I will be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after, I'd wipe away the tears
Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide
voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time
the night is my companion, and solitude my guide
would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?
and I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
and after, I'd wipe away the tears

Through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed
trying to find an honest word to find
the truth enslaved
oh you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to me in rhymes
my body aches to breathe your breath

nothing stands between us here
and I won't be denied
and I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
and after, I'd wipe away the tears
Taunted and controlled by hell demons in my mind now dwell
Speaking in voices that aren't mine darkness and my soul combine
Forces make me take the knife want me to take someone's life
Slit the throat blood has begun don't even know what I've done
Shadows through the dark arise watch me stab my prey, she dies
Illusion controls my mind, it cries try to stop my action defied
Society calls it homicide just because the person died
I murdered by the demon's mind my thinking now has been confined
Darkness cannot leave my brain more killings maniac insane
Carrion child,
Prey for me,play your

Possession: taking hold
A grave to shade the frozen day
In cold desertion with shallow names
A soul born dead and cast unto flames
In shameless play to retrieve her way
A frost so pale in softened rain
In casted stone not chisled away
A virtue without lustre in clay
In graven silence and darkened pain
A forgotten stream by an unknown grave
In gifted silence a name betrayed
A barren dream asleep in hate
In mourning dreams denied in rage
A flight of woes in sickness reign
In darkness shunned of mortal saves
A hinded sight such wretched craves
In forlorn lust she sat in grace
A burden onto Hell's dark path
The frost of life in darkness sat
A heart of dust, a soul of lack
The sombre danse from which she laughed
A fallen god to ice so black
The deamon sighs in fractured glass
A silhouette of flame so vast
The eyes of felled Death stared back
A sigh from which thy life attacked
The dead declared offsane impasse
A season of the unknown craft
The plague from which thy death begat
A frightened earth with molten cracks
The stillness of the fire's cast
A fortune of the broken mask
Oh yeah, oh yeah
I can't find myself when you go away
Makes me wonder where you are
Is there someone else I just need to know?
This charade has gone too far
For the first time in my life, feel I'm losing control
I can't keep pretending it's my soul that you own
I need you
My heart's in your world tonight
(Possession)
And you hold the key to my life
(Possession)
I've got to be with you I wanna dream with you
You're my obsession, I want possession, of you
I can't play this game am I in too deep?
'Cause my world is where you are
You're always on my mind the little things you say
I can feel you everywhere
The trace of your lipstick I can taste your perfume
The note that you left me leaves a space in this room
I need you
My heart's in your world tonight
(Possession)
And you hold the key to my life
(Possession)
I've got to be with you I wanna dream with you
You're my obsession I want possession of you, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
I can't live without you, can't you see that your mine?
I need you
Your heart's in my world
(Possession)
In your world, in your world
Your heart's in my world tonight
(Possession)
And you hold the key to my life
(Possession)
I want possession of you every night
I want possession of you for all my life
I wanna walk with you
(Possession)
I wanna dream
(Possession)
(Possession)
When a man has a woman
and he doesn't really love her
why does he burn inside
when she starts to love another
It's possession,
It's possession.
It's possession,
It's possession.
It's possession,
It's possession.

Evil congregation born within my death
Devil seeks my soul tries to steal my breath
Fits of anger cry out as I spill my guts
Vomit fills the air as the coffin shuts
Chorus:
Possession
Possession
Repeat first verse
Chorus
The Lords Prayer
Mine eyes have seen the glory
Of the coming of the dead
They have ripped my heart out
Stole my soul and took my every breath
I've lost the will to live or die
Or follow in his ways
His death is marching on
Repeat first verse
Eyes are glaring red with a conscience set to kill
Nostrils flared and the eyebrows parallel
Thriving on the chaos and the suffering I have caused on you all
A dispute of man and diabolical beasts
How could one cipher such a malevolent being?
I am certain of humanity's demise
We are the disease that spreads amongst its filthy race
I am certain of humanity's demise
Man will inspire the works of a new era of corruption
Now that I can control the orifice of mankind
I gladly inform, you're all in a world of shit
Coprophagia would be the only solution
Open your fucking mouth and ingest what you are
Silent, you will remain, while I invoke my presence on your world
Urges I must satisfy, again and again...
Inside a shell, festering is the mind of a bastard child
Cover the earth with the blood of this lamb!
We are the disease the spreads amongst its filthy race
Collect the dust of the ones who have fallen to the lies
It is your last resort to a wretched memory
Take this life for granted and hold it tight
For we have you all under control because
We are the disease
For we have you all under control
Man will inspire the works of a new era of corruption
God damn you all
Eyes are glaring red with a conscience set to kill
Nostrils flared and the eyebrows parallel
unholy crimson rains from the darkest depths of hell
fall into this wretched dungeon where god's first angel fell
the rats feeding on the corpses ignore the stench of the decay
the disease, decapitation and slaughter pave the way
for me, the keeper of the keys to the seven golden gates
the flames of hell preserved me for my life beyond the grave
i drink the vomit of the priest, fuck the dying whore
spill the blood of the beast and hold the key to deaths door
i suck the entrails out of a ripped virgins cunt dry
the maggots fall like rain, blood is pissing down your spine
i am every living terror that your nightmares could conceive
i tear apart your soul, destroy all in you believe
my lust feeds upon your fears and your pain you hide inside
i'm the misery that haunts you when you sleep alone at night
your rituals and your exorcisms, to me they don't mean shit
i laugh at your religion, at left satans hand i sit
i spit at the virgin that you worship
your gods death i now demand
i'm the antichrist embodied in the shallow shell of man
baptized in blood, i unleash my wrath on earth
expose the weakness of the priest and desecrate the church
i'm the lies within the lives of the of the sacred that you cherish
i'm the burning cross of hatred that awaits you when you parish
i'm murder and i'm rape, sadistic pain is my obsession
i strike the souls down from the grave
you'll fear my name, i am possession
chorus:
hells hatred controls
(possession)
possesses your soul
(possession)
there is no salvation
(possession)
eternal motherfuckin' damnation
(possession)
possession (16x)
the hatred of hells fires for mankind burn inside me
my lifeless dead black eyes, tell no lies, they guide me
i'm the one who's born to choose, who will lose their life to me
i burn the souls and crush the bones
i am dooms darkest destiny
my lust to mutilate, subjugate and abuse
i satisfy with torn flesh from a barbed wire noose
a sledgehammer to the ribcage
a hacksaw to the throat
my barbaric massacres define the sacriledge of hope
i'll rip your heart out right in front of you
masturbating while you bleed
i'm smiling while you suffer and convulse in front of me
my chosen witness this destruction
terrified of their own fate
as the disembowled rot in front of hells golden gates
skinned alive, dumped in salt, ass ripped open, eyes pulled out
i'll skull fuck the dead pope and piss on heavens sacred ground
i rip the fetus from the womb
the laughter echoes through the tombs
i sodomize the fresh abortion by the dark glow of the moon
its mother desecrates her cunt with a broken bottle from the floor
screams of pleasure fill the air
as i eat this fucking whore
she cums in chunks of blood, her smeared guts across my face
she bled to death for six hundred and sixty six days
i'm the anger that you hide, your demon from inside
i'm the rage that drives to kill, my thrill for death i can't deny
i am agony, your fear and pain is my obsession
i'm the prince of anarchy, you'll fear my name,
i am possession
chorus
apocalyptic prophets warn the deaf of my return to terrorize
reaching far beyond the grave destroying all that i despise
born before the dawn of time, my spirit lasts forever
from sacrificial slaughterings my presence is remembered
your ignorant confessions that place your faith and trust in me
annihilate your mind with terror and betray your secrecy
for i speak in backward tongues to the dark lord that i answer
through your mouth of innocence that i direct onto my master
i'm damnation in the waiting, your fate you can't deny
i'm the hole in hells own dungeon of enslaven afterlife
that awaits your soul for me, it is mine alone to own
to torture for eternity, in front of satans flaming throne
feel the siezures rape your body, taste the bile of painful truth
that i'm possession, that i'm real
and that i'm tearing right through you
the stench of carnage fills the air and there is no god to help you
packs of salivating rats focus their attention on you
the undead slowly rise, surround you from all sides
the death bell starts to ring, thunder cracks down form the sky
panic starts to set, you try to wake up from this dream
but this hell in which you dwell is where you'll rot eternally
there's no salvation for you now,
i laugh out loud right to your face
i am horror, dread and agony, the demon you'll embrace
i'm violence and i'm rage, i'm cold blooded dark aggression
i'm the fucking gate to hell, you'll fear my name,
i am possession
I'm only 14
My head's within the clutches of sin
Got skulls on my wall
I've got a goatskin rug
I've got a possessed stereo
With an earphone plug
I put the phones up on my head
Get really stoned, freak out on my bed
I listen to forbidden sounds
Which come from deep beneath the ground
I Listen to forbidden songs
Which show me nothing
Sing along
Voodoo dolls, crystal balls
And all the stones
Lie in the sun
Magic spells, messages from hell
All these things and more
Coming from my possessed stereo
But will I hurt
I listen to forbidden sounds
Which come from deep beneath the ground
I Listen to forbidden songs
Which show me nothing
Sing along
Everybody watching you
Walking through the door
You don't even notice me
It makes me want you more
The earth is rushing through my veins
Moonlight on the window pane
Lovers moving 'cross the floor
Children waiting to the born
Possession
Nobody owns me
Come and claim it, babe
I'll be your possession
If you don't want me to yourself
What's a boy to do?
I'll be your one and only, girl
I'll be your substitute
Make it dirty, make it clean
Make it quick or make a scene
But why you wanna make me wait?
Hurry baby, don't be late
Possession
Why don't you own me?
Name it and claim it, babe
I'll be your possession
Possession
Come on and owns me
Name it and claim it, babe
I'm your possession
The earth is rushing through my veins
Moonlight on the window pane
Lovers moving 'cross the floor
Children waiting to the born
I want you, I need you
Someone else's love taking over
Someone else's blood taking over
Someone else's voice taking over
Someone else's choice taking over
I'm letting go
I'm falling out of love
Falling out of touch
I'm becoming your possession
Dark spot on the sun taking over
The eyes of everyone taking over
Those who seek a sign taking over
The water and the wine taking over
I'm letting go
I'm falling out of love
Falling out of touch
Eight to ten years for possession,
I'm living at the state hotel.
I guess I learned my lesson.
I guess I learned it well.
The judge says, "I got no discretion.
The law upon that point is clear.
Either got to put you up at state expense
Or let you walk away from here.
"I see you got a prior conviction.
That just about ties my hands.
They took away my power of decision.
I've got to honor what the law commands.
"You were indicted for conspiracy
to obstruct the right of way."
The plea was civil liberty,
But it wasn't a judge that day.
chorus
Possession, nine points of the law they say
Possession, take that boy and salt him away.
Possession, teach him how to obey.
They'd rather let a killer walk the street,
Than another damn freak like me.
Got a wife and kid on the way.
I've never had a nose for crime.
Someone passed me a joint one day,
And now I'm doing federal time.
Got a letter from wife that read,
"I just met another man.
It ain't that I don't love you, it said.
"I hope you understand."
Guess my luck ain't all that bad,
Smiling through my tears.
Seems that the D.A. knew my dad
Or I might have got 20 years.
Killer comes and a killer walks,
While I sit rotting here.
The scene of the crime is the ballot box,
And people who vote from fear.
chorus
2nd chorus
Possession, nine points of the law they say
Possession, take that boy and lock him away
Possession, I've come to understand
They'd rather free a man with some blood on his hands,
I can see your eyes glitter from down the hall
I wait desperately at night, waiting for your call
You come over my subconcious mind
Your beauty has somehow left me blind
And now I cannot stop thinking about you
That is why I left
What should I do,
should I still stand here?
I don't know but my senses are going wild.
Your beauty hypnotizes me,
Then I throw you down the ground,
I'm just going crazy.
You have become my possession,
You are my darkest obsession,
I cannot deny you're still in my mind
I can't leave your memories behind
'Cause you possess me,
Girl, you possess me,
'Cause you possess me,
Girl, you possess me,
'Cause you possess me,
Bitch, you possess me,
'Cause you possess me,
Girl, you possess me.
(Break it down)
But I don't want to stop,
My memories make me hot,
And I still cannot sleep.
(Insomnia, runs through my veins)
And I cannot deny this fire burning in my eyes.
Will you help me keep that fire alive?
(Deep-)
For you.
What can I do,
for your satisfaction?
What should I do,
should I still stand here?
I don't know but my senses are going wild.
Your beauty hypnotizes me,
Then I throw you down the ground,
I'm just going crazy.
You have become my possession,
You are my darkest obsession,
I cannot deny you're still in my mind
I can't leave your memories behind
'Cause you possess me,
Girl, you possess me,
'Cause you possess me,
Girl, you possess me,
'Cause you possess me,
Bitch, you possess me,
'Cause you possess me,
Perched atop his throne made of human skulls and bones
The dark lord of Hell gives his command
For a demon of his court to arise and go forth
Display the mastery of Hades o'er human lands
A potent infernal force accepts his masters orders
And journeys to the world above to seek his prey
A wicked grin lights his face, for the cruelty of his race
Ensures he is delighted to obey
Possession of your mortal soul
Demonic forces in control
Your feeble god can't save you now
The Prince of this Earth reigns supreme
Possession
Filled with contempt for men and free to roam the Earth again
This fallen angel sets out to find
A vessel to control with a corruptible soul
Strong in body but weak in mind
He's set his sights on you, you can consider your life through
You're doomed to an eternity of torment in Hell
Friends try to save you but the demon dominates you
It's too late, now they are doomed as well
The hellish demon rapes your mind
And rips your soul in two
Get it through your fucking head
The exorcist can't save you
Now the clergy's help is sought but the demon can't be fought
His power's greater than your weak pathetic god's
A priest enters the room and bravely faces doom
But within seconds, his battle is lost
From the underworld below Lucifer is in control
He laughs as he crushes your dreams (Ha Ha)
A cry echoes through the air, heard by people everywhere
[[Verse 1]]
I got a demon in my soul
*Satan Laughing*
That awakens my dreams.
Many sleepless nights, I could hear the spirits scream.
As it rattles my mind, I’m feeling lost in time.
I unlocked a dimension that I was soon to find.
Many spirits drifting in the [[Ouija Board]].
Had I played?
I discovered the [[monster]] that was locked away.
I brought this ghost to life with many [[questions I
asked]].
With-out knowing later on that I was gonna feel the
raft.
*Satan Laughing*.
Couldn’t believe it, I thought my mind was playing
tricks on me.
But, then, I knew it was real when I saw the board
bleed.
Then, the air got cold and my body got numb.
I felt the chill up my spine.
I thought my life was done.
Then, I heard the evil laugh that [[spoke to me]].
Then, it spelled out my name: [[“S-I-L-E-N-T”]],
I was closing the place, I felt the blow to my soul.
I got possessed by a Demon.
[[Let the story unfold]].
[[Chorus X2]]
[[Possession]],
Am I a ghost or alive?
Am I a Demon with his plans terrorizing some lives?
[[Possession]],
I have opened the game,
To see the spirits and presences,
Of what lies and awakes.
[[Verse 2]]
Later on that night, couldn’t sleep for shit.
*Satan Laughing*.
Shadows drifting by my windows had my fully loaded
clip.
Could it be my enemy or just a ghost passing by? What
the fuck is going on?
I keep hearing these evil cries.
Nights dark and in the morning, 3 o’clock to be exact.
My lady found me outside, holding my shovel with my
strap.
Then, she shook me and slapped me to snap me out of my
trance.
Couldn’t remember what‘d happened,
Had I had done the [[Devil’s Dance]]?
Later on that day, 5 o’clock Breaking News,
They found a body mangled and buried up in the lagoon.
I had some blood on my hands; I had the sting of death.
I was feeling cold because my body was wet.
Now, I’m feeling [[invincible]], like a leathern
[[individual]].
My brain is transformed to a mind that’s for
[[sinikles]].
I fell for the sign; He’s no longer at [[rest]].
Now, I once fucking believe that I’m [[Possessed]].
[[Chorus X2]]
[[Possession]],
Am I a ghost or alive?
Am I a Demon with his plans terrorizing some lives?
[[Possession]],
I have opened the game,
To see the spirits and presences,
Of what lies and awakes.
[[Verse 3]]
Now I have seen the Exorcist.
*Satan Slurring*.
Shit, many a-times.
And the Blare ain’t got nothing on this [[Demon]] mind.
Tries to take over my mind, my body, and soul...
But, I’m as strong as they come.
There ain’t no Bitch on this roll.
Can’t lose control, of this deadly situation,
Now, I’m deep in thought, what they call contemplation.
Pulled out the board that started it all,
I’m guarantying the Spirit is soon gonna fall.
Then I asked the question:
“Who’s here with me?”
*Satan Laughing*.
The lights flickered and shattered as the walls began
to bleed.
Then, the Dark Image came, floating my way.
It said,
*Satan Slurring*.
“Your time is up. It’s no longer a game.”
It tried to pull me back inside.
I wouldn’t let it come in.
Its Mr. Silent v.s. [[Satan]], guess who’s gonna win?
He finally did give up and had vanished in Sin.
Then, the Ouija spelled:
“Death… [[I’ll see you in your dreams]].”
[[Chorus X2]]
[[Possession]],
Am I a ghost or alive?
Am I a Demon with his plans terrorizing some lives?
[[Possession]],
I have opened the game,
To see the spirits and presences,
Carry on, everything's over
stare at the dawn, as sky is covering
clouds are darkening the horizon and our lives
carry on, we can't stand this silence.
Holding on to a wicked sensation
pounding strong, it's pure emotion
How long does it last inside our living hearts?
every beat, really loses away a part.
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
in your pain and it's part of me
where the poet lives, no poetry can exist
if there is no dream, you carry my heart.
[Chorus:]
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
hand in hand so far from here
through the dark of night and through the leaves of fall
I am leaving you, as you carry my heart.
Carry on, I can't let you burn me up
but you know that I can't resist
no mere human can stand a fire not
being consumed, I ask myself,
you and me will be us?
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
in your pain and it's part of me
where the poet lives, no poetry can exist
if there is no dream, you carry my heart.
[Chorus:]
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
hand in hand so far from here
through the dark of night and through the leaves of fall
I am leaving you, as you carry my heart
Please allow me to deeply live this dream
while the others all around still sleep
she wrote fairytales of disobedience
while the fire burned, possession of their souls
[Chorus:]
You carry my heart, you carry my dreams
hand in hand so far from here
through the dark of night and through the leaves of fall
I am leaving you, as you carry my heart
Our bodies, our currency
How can this be what we want?
It only amounts to slavery
To daily wallow in degradation
A mockery of equality
Our daughters tortured
Our sisters raped
At best expect to stay in their place
These are the cultures at whose
Feet men lay praise
There is no ownership
Implicit in gender
At the hands of beasts in Nanking
At the hands of beasts in Bosnia
At the hands of beasts in America
Tortured
A woman's body exploited as
Throughout history
Treated as lower than an animal
As the vessel to maintain a man's pride
The shame of a species
The masculine legacy
Total bullshit
Fuck your violence
When my soul was filling with warmth again
The spark in my eyes resurrecting from the pain
But you took it all into your possession
I believed you but you betrayed me
I did believe your words
Didn't care for the things I heard
Never to become a possession
Kill me instead in frenzied obsession
You thought you had control
Possessing all as your own
A disappointment to my eyes
A failure in disguise
You crossed the flaming line; you took away what's mine
You took that part of my heart with you
You wanted to have there me as your own
But left me dead to remain alone
I did believe your words
Didn't care for the things I heard
Never to become a possession
Kill me instead in frenzied obsession
You thought you had control
Possessing all as your own
A disappointment to my eyes
A failure in disguise
My eyes now full of hate, making you desperate
You try to escape from your fucking reality
Until you understand, I won't leave you be
I will make you know, you will never possess me
I did believe your words
Didn't care for the things I heard
Never to become a possession
Kill me instead in frenzied obsession
You thought you had control
Possessing all as your own
A disappointment to my eyes
