Insane
05:01
|
|||
|
The smell of a young skin drives you mad
It makes you forget all the things you had
The temptation is far too big to resist
There’s no way out, no chance to cut your needs
You’re the slave of your own insanity
You’ll do it again to satisfy your greed
You’ll never stop, you’re driven by your urge
Your mind is sick, it’s out of all reason
You will strike again because you are insane
The world’s worst crime, you know you are a shame
There is it again, this unresistable pain
Your mind is so sick, what gives you the kick?
Does it make you a man, will you ever learn?
Does it put you in control? Your head should roll
There is no single hole which is dark enough for you
The need for virgin flesh will always be fresh
Another victim in your lair, locked and chained into a chair
The desperate look in their eyes, satisfy you when they die
You know, you’re hunted down
But justice will be drowned
You know behind a shield
Made of hypocrisy

Highway To The Doom
03:14
|
|||
|
Faceless heads, walking like robots,
Mindless souls, drifting away
A headless army streaming to nowhere
Controlled by the system, let the rat race begin
A fall into nothing, never hit the ground
A brainless mob, slaves to the grind
On a highway to the doom, the arrival is soon
Through a tunnel of fear
Straight ahead into a pool of lies
Around a piece of shit, like a flock of flies
On a path built of skulls, given away the last chance
The wrong choice, the wrong way, nothing left to say
A hopeless walk on the knife’s edge
Ending up as a cast away wreck
Souls of the damned – Soulless minds
Souls of the damned – Soulless minds
Souls of the damned – Soulless minds
Souls of the damned – Soulless minds

The Contract
03:53
|
|||
|
A creature, alone and without belief
Fallen in a deep black hole, hunted by depression
On a tablet to be catched by the fallen one
A downward spiral into darkness
Forget everything you know and lived for
Cut the bridges to your past and follow me
Your new life begins from this hour
But there is no, no turning back
Sign this contract and follow me
The price is high, your soul is mine
Don’t cheat on me or you will rot
In eternal fire and flagellation
Come with me to wherever I guide you
I’ll show you the way into eternity
I promise you everything you could imagine
You’re the latest sheep in my herd

Drowning
04:41
|
|||
|
You are drowning – the lies hold you under the water
Another scary situation before your eyes
Missed the station to leave the running train
On the search for something, you cannot describe
Took the wrong turn, stand close to the wall
It comes for you, it’s getting closer
Want to suppress your thoughts, you wanna forget
The more they come, the harder it gets
It pulls you further to the ground
You are drowning – the lies hold you under the water
You are drowning – spill the truth or you will be dead
You can’t control without a change in mind
Still waiting for the shades of time
Pour the water drown the weakness
Cannot deny the faults, you are so wasted

Law Of Nature
04:22
|
|||
|
Straying day by day in the wilderness
The fascination for the scary animals inside your heart
Give the people a sympathy for the unloved ones
A passion without fear of anything
Without fear
Tried always to be next to the danger zone
The nearer, the better – to offer another attraction
Balance on the thin line between brilliancy and insanity
The respect of distance was sometimes ignored
Insanity
Hit by the power of self-defence
The law of nature strikes through your heart
Missed your last chance to step back
Your passion took you away from this world
Gave this world a different view of the scary side
Bringing the joy of the wild side to the masses
Sadly you’ve overdrawn the bow this time
The wilderness took revenge, no rest in peace
Rest in peace

Kick That Dirt
04:37
|
|||
|
Kick back - kick that dirt
Kick back - kick that dirt in their own fucking face
Kick back - kick that dirt
Kick back - kick that dirt in their own fucking face
You are poisoning the air with your grudge
Seek the point to cut a deep wound
Your dissatisfaction reflects in your doing
Better wipe in your own yard
Shut up your fucking mouth
Your emptiness devours you from within
The bitterness is isolating
Stand up for what you have said
You are caught in a web of liars
Clean up your own mess

Lights Out
07:15
|
|||
|
The brightness of daylight blinds me
It hurts to open my swollen eyes
I don’t know what happened to me
Unreal fragments are in my brain
I cannot dispose the pieces of the past
I lost the navigation at a certain point
I try to build a bridge to yesterday
But in the middle it breaks away
Lights out, lights out, the night turned it all into a blackout
Lights out, lights out, the sleep killed all my memories
Like a heavy door is blocking the treasure
And I have lost the key to open
There is no possibility to recall the past
My memory is doomed

Cold-Blooded
04:35
|
|||
|
Reached another dead-end street
it’s not the first time this happened
Facing always the same problems
Like a neverending vortex
You are so cold-blooded
Hurt with words like rusty nails
Freezing the air between us
Let no one come to close to you
Building up a wall to protect yourself
Break the silence with words of hate
Not thinking about the consequences
The lack of confidence
Try to help with all my strenght
Suffocating you emotions
To protect yourself from frustration
Do you know what you say?
We are striding away
It can’t go on like this
Pushing away the helping hand
There is no future without faith
My soul is hurt so many time

Witchhunt
05:37
|
|||
|
Inquisition covers the land with fire
Hunting evil in the name of god
Exorcists roaming from north to south
Followed by tormentors with their ghastly tools
Witchhunt – we’re gonna get you
Set you on fire like a bundle of wood
Witchhunt – were gonna torment you
Hunting evil in the name of god
Set up the suspicious mind on a funeral pile
To cast the devil’s conceptions out of their head
Growing flames rising the possessed body
Screams of anguish sounding through the night

Audit Terror
05:00
|
|||
|
In a time where trust has gone
Fear and distrust is in our minds
You chase us down, we’re not alone
Supervised an controlled, we’re running blind
You pretend to know what’s wrong and right
You’re playing god – abuse your power
Power rules the world, you let us feel it
Can’t do anything we’re on a chain
On the search for revenge, steady and restless
Can’t go on like this, it’s payback time
The eye of the watcher, merciless and rigid
An audit terror, driven by fear
All in the name of our security
Decide for us, what’s right and wrong
Control is what you want, no compromises
Abusing technology to wash our brains
Day by day, all the time, the story never ends
You got the power we cannot win
Control – observation – unlimited tracing – restrictive monitoring
Audit terror – all around – no way out – we’ll have to join

Thrash Metal Domination
05:01
|
|||
|
Go!
Run for cover, always be aware, don’t try to tell
Metal thrashing madness, bang your head, we are the cowboys from hell
Bonded by blood, we’re burning your eyes, we’ve got the pleasure to kill
First strike is deadly, show no mercy, we’re gonna break your will
Welcome to hell, it’s raining blood, evil never dies
Fight fire with fire, angel of death, hear the desperate cry
Into the pit, death squad, another lesson in violence
Take no prisoners, kill’em all, I am the king of the kill
This is thrash metal domination
Crushing necks and breaking bones
This is thrash metal domination
We’ll rip inside your soul
We shall arise, from the ashes, remember the fallen
Hello from the gutter, united forces, here comes the new order
Speak english or die, by the sword, for whom the bell tolls
I am the law, strike of the beast, here comes the antichrist
