SONG LYRICS & CHORDS (T)

doko ni yukebaii anata to hanarete / ima wa sugisatta toki ni toikakete / nagasugita yoru ni tabidachi wo yume mita...

Over indulgence in substance you require / To settle down, to feel sane, the his is in your mind / Veins pumping, eyes lost, hideous life of pain...

The other side of the coin / The way to express new life, / Who needs more evil thoughts,...

Please calm down with all the violent rhetoric. Some people who put on a badge are just trying to help people--just trying to do some good. My dad, mom, uncle, aunt, brother, sister, son, daughter is a cop. I don't want to hear another word about bribery. I don't want to hear about racial profiling, broken bones, or prison rape--or another unarmed kid filled from head to toe with fifty government-issued bullets. There is a fundamental flaw in your desire. There is a psychological deficiency in policing others. Those who maintain a structure of unjust laws, those who bow to the province of the few, those who would coerce others under the implicit threat of violent subjugation--your reign is at an end. When they attack in the name of the law, we will retaliate in the name of liberty....

One more second fucking wasted, put this bullet in my brain. One more second, one more minute, one more hour - I'm a wreck. If one more second goes uncounted, put this rope around my neck. Bury myself into the bottle. Cough up glass for a week. Searching for strength in a liquid that takes the death grip on me....

And at once I realize that the hand I hold is black with corruption, that the gilded rhetoric is a sibilant mantra meant to stifle guilt, that the staunch discipline of tradition is merely the coward's path, and that this descent into compromise is the death of friendship. I've witnessed you slit the throat of the young idealist and impale empathy to the hilt of your sword. You wear a stranger's face. Your eyes hold no recognition. Conceal the vastness of self-betrayal beneath the scientist's cloak, / beneath the scholar's mantle, beneath the hedon's frock. Drink the blood of this perverse deception. Escape in inebriation. Bonds consecrated in our most private moments. Loyalty sacrificed in the blaze of denial. My emptiness has built your altar. And I worshipped myself in you forever....

The fire's light casts shadows across the faces of abandoned gods. Looming stone monoliths stand silently as a pantheon of superstition burns: emotional immolation. The thorned crown of self sacrifice, the horns and fur of immature rebellion, the false personification of nature--gives way to this passionate holocaust, to a reawakening of reason, to the triumph of the will. The stars' dull shine offers not approval nor any earthly feeling. It only illuminates our naked forms. Throw your frail bodies down. Throw your white bodies down. Throw your skinny bodies down. Throw your pale bodies down....

It's not my fault. I'm a victim of stolen youth, born a villain. This life impoverished, this mind untrained--where else can I turn but to violence, to the power of intimidation, to attack and abuse? Forever searching for advantage, any advantage. It's not my fault. I'm just following orders. Maintaining these sacred laws, ever obedient. Forever searching for any sign of crime, of deception. Unless crime would serve my own ends, then I attack and abuse. It's never my fault. I'm a victim of unwarranted abuse. Born to privilege, always on top, but always on guard, forever searching for any sign of threat. We are not safe....

Gaze into the empty eyes of the rank and file, and you will know defeat. Knees break, bent before the altar of indifference, of conformity. Lips purse, to kiss upon the ring of submission, of abdication. Servitude personified. Mediocrity's champions. Is this life?...

This freezing chamber is inescapable. These ashen walls are insurmountable. Empty sockets see nothing but black, black, black abyss. Endless gloom. Endless solitude. A lifeless form. Twilight eternal. The current sweeps their bodies to shore. The last reminder of the death they endured. Of the oceans depths, they are now sure. No escape. Reaper, join us. Father of death, return to us. Empty sockets see nothing but black, black, black abyss. We are all lost between hell and the sea. The surface is shimmering--just beyond our reach. Why? Why have we been abandoned? Shadows grasp at the ghosts of memories. There is no release. There is no end in sight. Tomorrow will never come. I cannot let go. I can never let go....

Riddler, Riddler ask me / why the birds fly free on a mackerel sky. / Ask me whither goes the winds...

Get away from me! / Take heed to thyself / and see my face no more!...

A common woman lives by the bible. / Wedlocked, a prison of antiquation. / Brings life to the earth while losing her mind,...

Storm-lord, the Dreaded One / Poison of our worlds / In times of darkness, of death and decay...

In shadows deep, where silence dwells, / A life entwined with whispered spells, / Each breath a fragile, fleeting spark,...

All tears, restrained for years / Their grief is confined / Which destroys my mind...

You're in for surprise / You're in for a shock / In London town streets...

Scream into the void, blood runs cold / My heart beats like thunder / Chains of agony, walls of despair...

Son of swordsman, born a warrior / Insubordinate tempting fate / And in the shadow of the rising sun...

The Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and the temple / Their mission, a journey about to begin / Safeguard the path, the way to salvation...

The poor fellow-soldiers of Christ and the temple / Their mission, a journey about to begin / Safeguard the path, the way to salvation...

Son of god of the sun / The two lands in thy might / Hast established their offerings...

Som en hjälte han red till strid / Likt sin värja hans blick var av stål / Där han stod, full av mod, han var...

Son of swordsman, born a warrior / Insubordinate tempting fate / And in the shadow of the rising sun...

A force of light an angel / Sent through time to destroy / Avenging the dark ones...

During the last rays of the sacred moon / I walk the desolate terrain cold and all alone / The rider came to me a black tornado, a violent mass...

Through the flames I watch / As you plead on your knees / The reaper awaits...

I walk the Earth just as they planned / Baptized in fire for my ancient land / The coming curse, your anti-Christ, I am the Watcher's eye...

My personal quest is to make your life hell / Yes dear friend listen up well / The power I've given I can take as well...

Twisted Truth / A god before god / Summon the demons to enter your body...
