The Hammer And The Nail
05:17
|
|||
New York, Tokyo, Amsterdam and Berlin
Nobody knows where the Hell you've been
Blackmail, murder, kidnapping and deceit
When I catch you, revenge will be sweet
Did you really think
you could take my money and run?
Don't you know that your time has come?
Run away as fast and far as you can
But I'm hot on your heels, 'cause I'm the hitman
Between the hammer and the nail
You know that I won't fail, I won't fail
You don't know when the axe will fall
But I will see you crawl, you will crawl
Moscow, Hong Kong, L.A. and Madrid
I won't stop 'til I see you dead
Try to hide, go deep underground
But the day will come where I'll run you down
I feel the rush, I feel the thrill
One step behind, closing in for the kill
With no mercy and no sympathy
No remorse, as I watch you bleed
Between the hammer and the nail
You know that I won't fail, I won't fail
You don't know when the axe will fall
But I will see you crawl, you will crawl
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
You don't know when the axe will fall
But I will see you crawl
With no mercy and no sympathy
No remorse while I watch you bleed
New York, Tokyo, Amsterdam and Berlin
Nobody knows where the Hell you've been
Blackmail, murder, kidnapping and deceit
When I catch you, revenge will be sweet
Did you really think
you could take my money and run?
Don't you know that your time has come?
Run away as fast and far as you can
But I'm hot on your heels, 'cause I'm the hitman
Between the hammer and the nail
You know that I won't fail, I won't fail
You don't know when the axe will fall
But I will see you crawl, you will crawl
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail
The hammer and the nail

Double-Crossed
04:51
|

Double-crossed
Pay the cost
Double-crossed
It's the love of money, that turned you 'round
An underworld mentality,
that quickly cut me down
And for a dollar, stab me in the back
Showing me your evil, your integrity you lack
Double-crossed
Pay the cost
Double-crossed
I'm caught in the crossfire again
With a gun to my head
I'm caught in the crossfire again
I'll probably end up dead
Double-crossed
Pay the cost
Double-crossed
You have no honor, you have no shame
You have no loyalty, dishonesty's your game
You brought your pistol, you brought your knife
And then you threatened me,
and said you'd take my life
Double-crossed
Pay the cost
Double-crossed
I'm caught in the crossfire again
With a gun to my head
I'm caught in the crossfire again
I'll probably end up dead
Double-crossed

Blind Nation
04:23
|
|||
In a war between the right and wrong
Battlelines are set and drawn
Set for the war that's just begun
With armies on the left and right
Led by men who lack the sight
Staring down the barrel of a gun
Plunged into endless darkness
Their eyes seared into blindness
By the power they harness
But they're blind!
In a world where only madness reigns
Ruled by men who are insane
Fighting 'til nothing remains
In a time where we all live in fear
In fear that the end is near
The end of all that we hold dear
Plunged into endless darkness
Their eyes seared into blindness
By the power they harness
But they're blind!
Blind Nation
They're blind!
Blind Nation
In a war between the right and wrong
Battlelines are set and drawn
Set for the war that's just begun
With armies on the left and right
Led by men who lack the sight
Staring down the barrel of a gun
'Cause they're blind!
Blind Nation

Her Invisible Friend
03:01
|
|||
Her parents were in disbelief
But they had heard the floorboards creak
It's just a childhood game, they'd say
Her invisible friend had come to play
I'm the one she's talking to...
All alone there in her room
Sharing all her lonely years
Feeding on her secret tears
But you don't see I'm there
My hand rocking the baby chair
There with her to the end
I'm her invisible friend
They say it's all in her head
But I'm her invisible friend!
Her parents were in disbelief
But they had heard the floorboards creak
It's just a childhood game, they'd say
Her invisible friend had come to play
I'm there in the dead of night
There when she turns off the light
In her room in shadows deep
Watching over her now as she sleeps
But you don't see I'm there
My hand rocking the baby chair
There with her to the end
I'm her invisible friend
They say it's all in her head
But I'm her invisible friend!
But you don't see I'm there
My hand rocking the baby chair
There with her to the end
I'm her invisible friend
They say it's all in her head
But I'm her invisible friend!
Her parents were in disbelief
But they had heard the floorboards creak
It's just a childhood game, they'd say
Her invisible friend had come to play
But you don't see I'm there
My hand rocking the baby chair
There with her to the end
I'm her invisible friend
They say it's all in her head
But I'm her invisible friend!
But you don't see I'm there
My hand rocking the baby chair
There with her to the end
I'm her invisible friend
They say it's all in her head
But I'm her invisible friend!

Rise Or Fall
04:24
|
|||
So, you all know why we're here tonight
Gathered here amid the war and strife
And why we should all make this sacrifice
Not to run and hide, but stand and fight
Together we will stand against the tyranny
Our heads not bowed, but up in dignity
The eyes of the world, they all will see
We refuse to kneel, but rise in victory
Follow me, into the lion's den
Follow me, into the dragon's mouth
Follow me, until the bitter end
Won't you follow me?
To the gates, the gates of Hell
We will heed the call, the battle cry
To where the bombs will drop and the bullets fly
To where the fires rage up to the sky
We will rise or fall, or live or die
Follow me, into the lion's den
Follow me, into the dragon's mouth
Follow me, until the bitter end
Won't you follow me?
To the gates, the gates of Hell
Together we will fight the tyranny
Our heads not bowed, but up in dignity
The eyes of the world, they all will see
We refuse to kneel, but rise in victory
Won't you follow me?
Rise or fall!

On the edge of the night
You're drawn to her pale blue light
It's seems someone is there
You hear her calling your name
Beyond what your eyes can see
Beyond what your heart can feel
Beyond what your mind says is real
On the edge of the night
You're drawn to her pale blue light
It's seems someone is there
You hear her calling your name
Her bioluminosity conceals
Her bioluminosity you feel
She's not an angel, but a devil from below
Looking to steal your soul
It's a trick of the light
Her claws hidden from sight
And you're losing control
In the dawn you awake
As one of the living dead
And the voice that you hear
Is her in your head
Beyond what your eyes can see
Beyond what your heart can feel
Beyond what your mind says is real
Her bioluminosity conceals
Her bioluminosity you feel
Her bioluminosity conceals
Her bioluminosity you feel
Revealed, your fate is sealed

The Leviathan
04:51
|
|||
Come closer children, listen if you please
Gather 'round the fire, let the darkness cease
You all know the tales, of ancient Greece
Of brave Ulysess, and the golden fleece
But a grander tale, yet told the least
Is of Lucian inside, the belly
The belly of the beast
We sailed for four days and four nights
But then, the wind died away
And we lost the light of day
We were stranded hundred miles from shore
But we had no idea, what there was in store
Then came the Leviathan
Stretching from horizon to the horizon
Enormous, two hundred miles or more
Slowly it came from the south
Opening its cavernous mouth
And it swallowed our ship whole
Come closer children, listen if you please
Gather 'round the fire, let the darkness cease
You all know the tales, of ancient Greece
Of brave Ulysess, and the golden fleece
But a grander tale, yet told the least
Is of Lucian inside, the belly
The belly of the beast
Come closer children, listen if you please
Gather 'round the fire, let the darkness cease
You all know the tales, of ancient Greece
Of brave Ulysess, and the golden fleece
But a grander tale, yet told the least
Is of Lucian inside, the belly
The belly of the beast

Tear It Down
04:05
|
|||
From your first step to your last breath
Voices get louder and louder
They pound their way deep into your brain
From your teacher / supervisor
From your mother and father
But it's time for you to break free from your chains
You can do what you want to do
You can be who you want to be
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
They tried to build a wall
They tried to lock the door
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
Day into night, night into day
Yelling and preaching at you
'Til you're brainwashed and they're to blame
Tell you how to act
Tell you how to live
But not by their example
It's like they're trying to drive you insane
You can do what you want to do
You can be who you want to be
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
They tried to build a wall
They tried to lock the door
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
Tear it down, break it down
Break it down, tear it down
From your first step to your last breath
Voices get louder and louder
They pound their way deep into your brain
Day into night, night into day
Yelling and preaching at you
'Til you're brainwashed and they're to blame
You can do what you want to do
You can be who you want to be
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
They tried to build a wall
They tried to lock the door
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
You can do what you want to do
You can be who you want to be
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
They tried to build a wall
They tried to lock the door
Nothing can stand in our way, hey!
Tear it down, break it down
Break it down, tear it down

Infrared
03:00
|
|||
Today we got a message
Within a lightbeam
Hidden in a spectrum
Beyond our eyes can see
Return of the creator
Master of the light
Deep within the scarlet
Within the lightning strike
The infrared!
Descending from the heavens
Coming down from the sky
Bathed in iridescence
On our knees we cry
Did he come to save us?
Or bring us to our doom?
Within the ultraviolet
To seal us in our tomb
The infrared!
See them all look to the skies
Waiting for his light to appear
The dawning that was foretold
The time of infrared is here
The infrared!
See them all look to the skies
Waiting for his light to appear
The dawning that was foretold
The time of infrared is here
The infrared!
Look to the sky
Look for his light to appear
The dawning that was foretold
The time of infrared is here

Martial Law
03:56
|
|||
Tanks in the streets, and our army's defeat
To an ordered retreat, to their marching feet
And we're left here to hide, like rats underground
We live in fear, for our children are dear
And the future's unclear, when the soldiers are near
And from outside there now, they start to pound
Scared to the core of what is in store
From behind the door, there on the floor
We're left to plead and beg them, for our lives
And there they stood, treacherous hoods
They ration the food, with nothing that's good
And we do all we can now, just to survive
We were shocked and traumatized
From the horrors that we saw
Is there now no hope for us?
That we're under Martial Law?
Martial Law!
We were shocked and traumatized
From the horrors that we saw
Is there now no hope for us?
That we're under Martial Law?
Martial Law!
We were shocked and traumatized
From the horrors that we saw
Is there now no hope for us?
That we're under Martial Law?
Martial Law!

The Yetis Call
04:07
|
|||
Like a distant warning in the air
Echoing across the frozen mountaintops
A sound of sorrow and despair
While icy fingers make your breathing stop
Hear the wind scream
As the snow falls
It's not a dream
You just heard the Yeti's call
Hear the wind scream
As the snow falls
It's not a dream
You just heard the Yeti's call
In the Himalayas there's a tale
About a snowman who's abominal
If his mountain you dare to scale
You'll die a death most horrible
Hear the wind scream
As the snow falls
It's not a dream
You just heard the Yeti's call
Hear the wind scream
As the snow falls
It's not a dream
You just heard the Yeti's call
Hear the wind scream
As the snow falls
It's not a dream
You just heard the Yeti's call
Hear the wind scream
As the snow falls
It's not a dream
You just heard the Yeti's call

Sledgehammer
03:56
|
|||
Pounding metal, screaming in the night
Loud guitars, rocking to the light
With all the people, their faces shining bright
We're only here to mosh, not to fight
Sledgehammer!
A wave of sound, stronger than the sea
A raging fire, inside you and me
Make a stand, to be or not to be
We're only here to set the music free
We're all here together
No matter, whatever
For metal, we all gather 'round
Our goal has been sighted
Together, united
Opposition crushed by the sound
Pounding metal, screaming in the night
Loud guitars, rocking to the light
With all the people, their faces shining bright
We're only here to mosh, not to fight
Sledgehammer!
We're all here together
No matter, whatever
For metal, we all gather 'round
Our goal has been sighted
Together, united
Opposition crushed by the sound
Sledgehammer!
Sledgehammer!
