Arriving in boats, black hooded coats
Tormentors climbed into my room
I crawled under my bed, covered my head
But they're flushin' me out with a broom
The leader, she's small, pinned my ass to the wall
For my seeds or she'd be losin' her past
Time after time, she'd be readin' my mind
But she never got the feelin' to last
Celebrate, celebrate, celebraid it
This is the critical mass
So far so good, I heard the other say
So good so far, they're takin' me away
I drink to you, your mind, her ass
We'll take a drink and break the glass
Celebrate, celebrate, celebreak it
This is the critical mass
Now the tallest of two, with a brush full of blue
Paints surrealist scenes on the wall
So I tell her for fun, that it's really well done
But she just ain't listenin' at all
She points to my heart, tellin' me if I'm smart
I'll practice and phase
Out and admit, when the shoe doesn't fit
And I went screaming out down the hall
Really need it
Really need your love
Really need your love
Need your love need your love love love love love love love love love love
Just then I heard a poundin' on the door
We're all here, sang the voice of twenty more
I drink to you alas
We'll take a drink and break the glass
Celebrate, celebrate, celebreak it
We are the critical mass
Time in space, is takin' me away
Time erase, don't know the time of day
Time in space, is takin' me away
Time erase, don't know the time of day
Time in space, is takin' me away

When I touched your skin
I felt your heart beating deep within.
And I was sure
Everything was ?
You're in my heart
But it's the feeling that all fell apart.
Think of me; but don't believe that I was wrong.
When I switched off my feeling is when I lost control.
Couldn't say what I was needing -
Something I didn't know.
I woke up in bed
A cold sweat running down my head.
And I remembered something you had said:
(You Said) "Don't dream too long, 'cuz when you wake up everybody's gone."
Find someone else to sing another song.
When I switched off my feelings is when I lost control
Couldn't say what I was needing -
Something I didn't know
When I switched off my feeling is when I lost control
Couldn't say what I was needing -

CRITICAL MASS
-------- ----
by Nuclear Assault from "Handle With Care" (c) 1989
The bio-sphere, the place we live
It seems like we don't give a damn
Other species flushed down the tubes
We need another race to rape
The way we live, we will destroy
Every other living thing
Till none are left except our race
And then we will destroy ourselves
]Another oil spill
]Atomic waste displaced
]Another forest dies
]Bring on the acid rain
Slightly insane, the type of greed
That makes a world unfit for life
Toxic wastes destroy our seas
While poison gas pollutes the air
A waste of life, while no one cares
The earth becomes a giant tomb
Critical mass will be achieved
And ruins will be all that's left
]Another oil spill
]Atomic waste displaced
]Another forest dies
*grovvy solo*
A hell on earth, what we create
Dragging life to death with us
All living things destroyed or used
By shortsighted human beings
We do these things, let them be done
Apathy creates despair
The damamge done will be too great
The world wounded beyond repair
]Another oil spill
]Atomic waste displaced

I see no sense in what's going on
U sense no meaning, I see no light for us all
Cold chill in spine shows me no future
There's no safety around us - no protection, no wall
Blind ignorance throuth generations
It's hidden black on white, I turn to stare
There's a taste of blood in my mouth
It's sick, when I breathe the air
I see no light in the ways that I choose
No matter how I twist and turn, I lose
I see no light in the ways that I choose
No matter how I twist and turn, I lose
I can't escape the numb feeling of
Perpetual deceiving dreams again
Problems too dark to touch, we're reaching
Critical mass - The end
I see no light in the ways that I choose
No matter how I twist and turn, I lose
I see no light in the ways that I choose
No matter how I twist and turn, I lose
Silence in governments shows the taste of fear
Our world is falling apart, it's in the atmosphere!!

[Part One: fission]
Atom by atom gaining a few
Collapsing and waxing and building anew
Eleven dimensions curled up so tight
Time and space one thing the speed limit light
Neutron and proton collapsing afresh
More complex carbons creating the flesh
Super string membranes dark matter burst
Pulling together our universe
Strange, charm and gluons imploding again
All of this matter formed into men
Energy everywhere and no drop to drink
Each generation a chain in the link
Science has helped us in getting this far
The road has run out so get out of the car
We're approaching the critical mass
What will become of the spirit of man?
What is the story and how does it end?
Where are the boundaries and where are the doors?
Who are the heroes for fighting this war?
How did I meet you and why have we spent
Our lives together, why were we sent?
I know that I've lived with you twelve times before
We're growing together, but what is it for?
We're approaching the critical mass
What will become of the spirit of man?
What is the story and how does it end?
Where are the boundaries and where are the doors?
Who are the heroes for fighting this war?
This means war
[Part Two: Fusion]
[Instrumental]
[Part Three: Lucky]
I've only just found it
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do
I've only just found it
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do
I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky
I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky
I was dead I was alive
I've been everyone in this life
I was alive I was dead
I've heard everything ever said
But...
I've only just found it
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do
I've only just found it
It's slippin' away and there's nothing I can do
I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky
I don't pray so i'll have to stay lucky
I was awake I was asleep
I never had anything that I could keep
I was asleep I was awake
I never broke anything I couldn't make
But...
I've only just found it

Your darkness helps me smile
I'm crawling on the ground for you
And my skin is still flickering
Scavegers sweep the floor for me
Can't you see that cruelty
Is a part of me
Kill the rabbit
And give me a bloody smile
Will you kiss my brand new face?
The mark of my name

Europe's plains
Blood and fire spill again.
Warring forces set their cause.
The race for fission had begun.
Powers of destruction sought,
Hidden by the hand of God.
Took six years to conceive,
Construct, deploy, and now destroy.
Burning sky. Say goodbye to the rising sun.
In a mushroom cloud. Heaven knows what we've begun.
Firestorm, earth consumed with a fervent heat.
Power loosed, now we cannot kill this beast.
Pacific isle,
A bird flies out before the dawn.
Oppenheimer's legacy is carried by Enola Gay.
Many sons owe their thanks
To the heroes of that day.
But victory was bittersweet,
As many blameless were swept away.
Burning sky. Say goodbye to the rising sun.
In a mushroom cloud. Heaven knows what we've begun.
Firestorm, earth consumed with a fervent heat.
Power loosed, now we cannot kill this beast.

Living your life bieng ruled by time
Rushing to work, can't even spare a dime
Toa poor old man living on teh street,
Who has not shelter from teh snow and sleet
So see the truth that you not found,
Plant your feet on solid ground
Put your trust in God above
Live in his abiding love
It's not just money you need to save,
Shake off your bonds your not a time slave
There is no point living at this pace
You can not win the human race
One of these days you'll look back and find
It's too late your out of time
So see the truth that you not found,
Plant your feet on solid ground
Put your trust in God above
Live in his abiding love
It's not just money you need to save,
Shake off your bonds your not a time slave
{Bridge}
On and on your own
Just barley in control
Take a minuet just to be
Are you afreaid of what you'll see?
So see the truth that you not found,
Plant your feet on solid ground
Put your trust in God above
Live in his abiding love
It's not just money you need to save,
Shake off your bonds your not a time slave
So see the truth that you not found,
Plant your feet on solid ground
Put your trust in God above
Live in his abiding love
It's not just money you need to save,

I had a dream last night
I was standing in a sea of white
The calm warmed my soul
And made me feel whole
Then I saw a shadow
Fliker like a distent crow
It made a stain
That spread like acid rain
Kyrie eleison
Christe eleison
Kyrie eleison
Lord have mercy
The anger welled so deep
But all I could do was weep
And before my eyes
I saw a crow arise
They saw a blemished scene
Thet saw none of what had been
I bbegged for them to stay
But then they turned grey
Kyrie eleison
Christe eleison
Kyrie eleison
Lord have mercy
Then the holy one
Touched me and he was gone
The purity flowed through me and into the sea
Then others just like me
Restored the white back to the sea
The calm warmed my sould

She came to me with a lot on her mind
We could talk on the weather but not this time
Somethin' heavy was weighing on her heart
It was written on her face
So I quikly said a prayer
Cause' I diden't know what to say
Lord help me understand only you know what we need
Lord give me the words to say
I will follow you so take the lead
I was soberd by what she said when she walked through the door
She thaught she should end the life that she was not ready for
We've been friends for so long now she can't hide
All the pain that she must feel inside
I said don't loose faith in God's love for you
And I pray his truth will see you through
Lord help me understand only you know what we need
Lord give me the words to say
I will follow you so take the lead
For without you, I'm running with eyes closed
{Bridge}
Without you (X3)
Running With eyes closed
Without you (X3)
Running With Eyes closed
It scares me to think of what we do
When we don't place our trust in you
When we see the one who's alive today
I just wanna give thanks and say
Lord help me understand only you know what we need
Lord give me the words to say
I will follow you so take the lead
For without you, I'm running with eyes closed

Hey Reverend Laribil
I think you've got it backwards
You philosophize theoligize think your wise
You claim Jesus Christ diden't rise
You have your Jesusless seminar
Ho did you drift so far?
Intellectualize hypothesize lobotomize
Your rhetoric makes me sick
You may not like the message we teach or the words we speak
The way we live our lives and the way we preach
But after decades of your waterd down voice
It's time listners had another choice Reverend Laribil
{Rap}
It's time to take a stand to take a total stand now
To critically catechize the Catholic know-how
Dwell deeply on the devine drive out the demons inside
It's such a slippery slope Satan's suicide slide
Break beelzebub's bonds belive and be reborn
Grasp God's grace gratefully
We're the Lord's loyal laity layin' the law down
Let's raticly rock teh roots replace withe solid ground
Dr. Hypocritic Oath
You swore you'd do no harm
You sterilize euthanize infanticide
Your medicine tastes like poison
You keep premoting your safe sex
You just fuel the epidemics
There's STD's like HPV and HIV
The only cure is to be pure
You may not like the message we teach or the words we speak
The way we live our lives and the way we preach
But after decades of your waterd down voice
It's time listners had another choice Reverend Laribil
{Rap}
The media grab hold of your insanity
Headlines rage "Misguided pity"
Even Thomas belived when he saw the hands
Jesus dosen't measure up to your demands
You use the abusive pseudo-clergy
To bash the entire male hierarchy
You say our sexual stand is out of fasion
So you can give in to your depraved passion
I'm so flippin' angry at it all!
WHen was it that you lost your call?
If you deny tradition and the church
Where is the foundation for your search?
You dis' confession and the eucharist
But it's teh alter of yourself that you've kissed
It's time for us to make our final stand
And crush all your false idols back to sand
Hey Mr. Chamelion
You want to lead our land
Your empty lies compramise virtue lies
You roll to teh nearest poll
It's nuthin' but a game
You're really all the same
We sit here dumb feel so numb vote for scum
We feed the greed that you need
You may not like the message we teach or the words we speak
The way we live our lives and the way we preach
But after decades of your waterd down voice

Fast tracking it in his Mercedes Benz
He picks up the call on his cell phone
His wife says You gotta coem home now
I need to talk to you alone
He says I'd like to but I'm way to busy
Slince then a voice says I'm dying
The words slow his life in and instant
He crumples broken and crying
It's sad when a love neglected
Comes sharply into focus
Only when the light is fading
And we're grasping for hope in the darkness
She was young and oh so beutiful
All the cars would stop so guys could see her
Her bible's tossed into a dresser
The rosary decorates the rear view mirror
She sneaks out at night she likes to partu
She tried to drive when she could barly see
She was the apple of her father's eye
Who oh why did she have to die
It's sad when a love neglected
Comes sharply into focus
Only when the light is fading
And we're grasping for hope in the darkness
{Bridge}
Don't you see it could easily be me
Who loses and neglects your love
If we replive choices
That have slipped right through our fingers
God help us show us today
How to love along the way
It's sad when a love neglected
Comes sharply into focus
Only when the light is fading

{Talking}
Girl: I don't know if I'm ready for this, Do you really love me?
Boy:Of course I do, I will love you forever.
Jane was good or so she thaught
GAve herself to a man why not?
No one got hurt, just showing her love
It's not liek murder to god above
It's a sign of the times
We diminish this sin
Why would God condemn
If they end up married in the end?
Eve was good or so she thaught
She ate the fruit that God said to not
No one got hurt just bad advice
It's not like murder not much vice
It's a sign of the times
We diminish this sin
Why would God condemn

Furtive Glances,
Anxios to be a stranger,
Buying what he knows he should ignore
Relief when it's done,
No one is the wiser,
Lies to the heart,
This time and no more
It's like that story of dorian gray
Behind a picture it gets more evil each day
We think that we can hide our secrets in the dark
But the saints and angels see us fall
Like ran down from heavan our prayers like tears fall
When we run away they can't reach us at all
Exploited women,
We pass it off as art,
But garbage in gives nothing but garbage out
Washing in mud can never get you clean
Inside your hear, there's still that guilty doubt
It's like that story of dorian gray
Behind a picture it gets more evil each day
We think that we can hide our secrets in the dark
But the saints and angels see us fall
Like ran down from heavan our prayers like tears fall
When we run away they can't reach us at all
The Say confession is good for the soul
Let it cleanse you and make you whole
(X2)
It's like that story of dorian gray
Behind a picture it gets more evil each day
We think that we can hide our secrets in the dark
But the saints and angels see us fall
Like ran down from heavan our prayers like tears fall

{Refrain}
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
{Intro}
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say
{Refrain}
Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
It surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say
{Refrain}
{rap}
The world semed to me as a yound child, so beutiful and magestic
But my heart was crushed by your agentda, made it fridgid and aniseptic
I screamed just to see if I existed, a blanket of silence surrounds me,
I crawl into my sanctum, toss a key and shut teh door around me
Every day I live to see the sun rise, to give me hope eternal
I have a spiritual hunger, I need to feed my sould
I look for the key that I discarded, and open the door wide
Now it's time to take that first step out, and let the light inside.
Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty,
But surely heaven waits for you
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest

Looking at the stars I wonder
Will we share our dream tonight
The million miles may stand between us
In dreams I'll be right by your side
Together in dreams if I can't see you
Together in dreams when I can't feel you
I'll be right there whenever trouble find you
You know in dreams I'm always by your side
Together in dreams I meant to hold you
Together in dreams I meant to show you
I've got the love, come on and let me guide you
Together in dreams, forever side by side
Looking at the stars I wonder...
The million miles may stand between us
But in dreams I'll be right by your side
I'll be right there, I'll be right there
