Prelude To Madness
06:22
|
|||
In the height of hysteria
The Madness begins
In Cold War America
And the Communist Kremlin
It’s an arms race to annihilation
With fingers on the button
It’s the end of all creation
In mutual assured destruction-
Missile silos stand ready
Deadly cargo in flight
Man’s gone insane
They call a nuclear strike-
Prelude To Madness
Prelude To Insanity
Can you feel the sadness?
The twilight of Humanity
Gripped in paranoia
The countdown begins
The seeds are sown
That brings us to the end-
Prelude To Madness
Prelude To Insanity
Prelude To Madness
Prelude To Insanity

Indignation
03:40
|
|||
I see the people, riots in the streets
I see them fighting, with the police
I see them running, tear gas in their eyes
I hear the shouting, and all the cries
With their fists in the air
Setting fires in the night
With the chaos everywhere
They’re out there joining in the fight
Indignation-
They shout for justice, they shout for peace
They point their fingers, their leaders… they speak
Destroying the places, where we all live
Why can’t they rise up, and learn to forgive?

Random Acts of Violence
04:25
|
|||
A man and his family
Are walking down the street
Hand and hand in the bright sunshine
When from a car, they open fire
In a blaze of treachery
With a blast of a double-barreled shotgun
Random Acts of Violence-
A man who lost everything
Went to work one day
Armed with an assault rifle
And starts killing everyone
In a mass shooting spree
For the problems, he can’t handle
Random Acts of Violence-
Random Acts of Violence….
What is wrong with the world?
Today’s society….
Where’s our compassion and kindness?
Why must we die?
At the barrel of a gun….
In an act of Random Violence?
Random Acts of Violence-

Sherman Tank
04:53
|
|||
There we were, in the theatre of war
Dying by their command
There we were, with our backs to the wall
To halt the army’s advance
We were made, to crawl in the mud
And knew, we hadn’t a chance
But who was there, when it all turned around?
Who’s the one we should thank?
In the theatre of war, dying by their command
With our backs to the wall, to halt the army’s advance
Made to crawl in the mud, and knew we hadn’t a chance
But who turned it around, who’s the one we should thank?
The Sherman Tank, The Sherman Tank
There we were, in the sweat and the blood
In the wind and the sand
There we were, in a fight for our lives
In a foreign land
We were made, to shoot and to kill
Till we barely could stand
But who was there, when all hope was lost?
Who wasn’t part of their plan?
In the sweat and the blood, in wind and sand
In a fight for our lives, in a foreign land
Made to shoot and to kill, till we barely could stand
But when all hope was lost, not part of their plan?
The Sherman Tank, The Sherman Tank
Here comes the Tank-
Crashing and tearing, it’s way through the wall
The soldiers scatter, they run, or they fall
It’s guns blazing fire, a terrible sight
A grim display, of its power and might
The Sherman Tank, The Sherman Tank

Mastodon
04:20
|
|||
Back before the dawn of Man
Glaciers moved across the land
Buried deep within the ice
Frozen in the pride of life
Let’s bring back the Mastodon
It’s been too long since he’s been gone
Let’s bring back the Mastodon
He was the king of the mighty beast
I need to hear his great heartbeat
Trapped beneath the Artic snow
He will return to regain his throne
Let’s bring back the Mastodon
It’s been too long since he’s been gone
Let’s bring back the Mastodon
All will hail, and bow their heads
All will hail, the Mastodon
All will hail, full of dread
As he rises from the dead
All will hail, all will hail
The Mastodon-

Into the Grey
03:36
|
|||
Beyond the stars of heaven
Beyond the reach of time
Out there in the emptiness
The nothingness, you’ll find
There in the darkness
Where the light don’t shine
There in the blackest recesses
Into The Grey-
Searching for tomorrow
Looking for a sign
Where’s the path to follow
When your eyes are blind
When all the words ring hollow
And faces seem unkind
Caught up in your sorrow
Submerged
Into The Grey-
Trapped in the darkness
What will you find?
There in the darkness
Out into The Grey

Two Fisted Man
03:30
|
|||
He was a man, a Two Fisted Man
He gets along best that he can
But ‘stead of walking, his fists did the talking
Cause he was a Two Fisted Man
There was the time, he walked the line
Between the hammer and nail
Then he was attacked, and he fought back
And he spent the next year in jail-
He has nothing to say, so get out of his way
Some things are better unsaid
If you step out of line, then you will find
That he will just break your head
Cause he’s a Two Fisted, a Two Fisted Man
A Two Fisted, a Two Fisted Man
He don’t say a word, voice never heard
But it doesn’t matter that much
With a right and a left, soon you can bet
There’s nothing left to discuss
Cause he’s a Two Fisted, a Two Fisted Man
A Two Fisted, a Two Fisted Man!

Broken Chains
04:17
|
|||
Your skies are turning dark
From the fires of your disdain
Your heart is turning black
From the weight and the strain
Your mind is overwhelmed
By the guilt and the shame
But it’s all confusion
Buried deep in your brain
You’re held by Broken Chains
Held by Broken Chains
Held by Broken Chains-
The cursed, they follow you
Like moths to a flame
The world is crushing you
But you’re the one to blame
You feel your life is slowly
Slipping down the drain
But it’s all illusion
Buried deep in your pain
These are the memories that bind you
These are your chains, your Broken Chains
The enemy’s inside you
Can you break free?
Free of your Broken Chains-

In Memoriam
04:25
|

It’s time we say goodbye
To this long, dark time
Say goodbye, to the ones we lost
And as we look to our new horizons
We won’t forget, we won’t forget the cost

Eternal Sanctuary
They give you what you need
Until your time has come
And they smother it with greed
You can hear the church bells ring
Holy angelic choirs sing
Loudly proclaiming
Only they can set you free
Heaven awaits
Only if you can pay their fee
You can hear the church bells ring
Holy angelic choirs sing
Now your soul will go take wing
But does it really mean a thing?
