1.
In the silence of the night how we shiver with affright. I feel the cold moon's stare as heavy snow falls into my hair. I pace the desperate streets trying to score some green. oh, baby mellow my mind, free me from these crooked times. I don't know how we sunk so low, Crawling like rats in the freshly fallen snow, we've found ourselves under their control. And all we can do is sing our songs and hope you sing along. Maybe then we can change this oh so crooked place.
2.
My God you’re beautiful cold and you’re dead, my God you’re beautiful. So young and so dreamy, so out of you’re head. My God you’re beautiful. So educated and so informed, yeah you heard what I said. We’ll unveil the empire, watch us and learn. And we sit and watch as she’s bound and gagged. We can’t hear her screams. No mercy not ever. Distracted and senseless; willing to obey, as we break our bread, just take and give only you’re dead. Does this feel good? Your force steals the innocence of a virgin. So what? You should have known by the taste. Seasons grow old and but she still remembers your face. Her scars your mistakes and she only dreams of revenge. Just take and give only your dead.
3.
We’re buying back our souls. Purchases shall breed control. Can we ever be free? Not just me. We’d rather watch than do. Sit back let the TV live for you in this video daze. Steel veins pump oil. Our hearts bleed for no one. We are the enemy. Blank youth led astray, we’re rising up from our graves and we want your fucking skulls. Down with the market bred religion based in fear. We’re waging war silently. Behind locked doors and computer screens. We’ve got the virus to infect your systems of control. Take my heart and die, I wish I was numb. This static quo, inbreeding the young. Oh, God, the stare. I’m not the wasted youth. No, I am the saved. Beware!
4.
Forget about the scattered youth, their teeth may rot but just inhale the fumes. Your ideologies have failed you now. There is no real. No place to bow. There is no remorse, we don’t feel guilt; because greed is God and that’s the truth you’ve built. You drown me! This digital ketamine, a market bred reality. When all around is emptiness and when all around the image persists. When all our dream can cease to be and all we breathe is gasoline. It strips our lungs of all their hairs, the integral impotence of thought. You drown me!
5.
I don’t know why I feel so inclined to speak my thoughts. My words are often lost. Shivering beneath the watchful eyes of the bank machines, four lights shine tall. Their icy grasp strangles us all. The rain falls down upon the frozen December ground. Just like our love, the snow turns into slush. The cars roar by, I hold her head and close my eyes. She whispered to me, “I’ll have you again. Just you wait and see.”
6.
Coyote’s howled in the night. Somehow their troubles got lost in our lies of a world that bores me to death. I’ll scream out freedom with my one last gasping breathe. No matter what you say I’m going to get my way. So what’s the point? You better step aside because I’m packing nines, yeah, I’ve got fire on my side and I’m ready to explode. What gives you the right to control how we live our lives? In a world of sorrow and pain all of your truths are based in monetary gain. No matter what you say I’m going to get my way. So what’s the point? You better step aside because I’m packing nines, yeah, I’ve got fire on my side and I’m ready to explode.
7.
Come take my hand and make me understand why it’s necessity that we’re commodities. We are: shades of grey, just another shade of grey. There will be black knights for white kings when I’ve got you under my sword. Now what say you jury? The verdict is “OFF WITH YOUR HEAD”. Your peers and the mob and angels say “Nothing can stop me now!”
8.
I will not surcome to your false leaders who promise life after death, because right now I am alive. I’m breathing, bleeding all that is inside. I’m on a rush; I’m on a high tonight. I don’t need to pray, I don’t want to run and hide. I’ve got a hunger for life tonight and I know that I will rise. Because once in a lifetime the light shines and it burns your eyes. So don’t follow the blind because just like sheep they will be slaughtered. And I will rise above it all and watch them fall. No one will shed a tear; no we won’t live in fear of your false deities. Because we see the light, it’s inside our hearts, it’s inside our minds, and it’s all we are. And as the smoke begins to rise, the ashes fall into your hair. A wave of euphoria rushes through your goddamned veins. And once in a lifetime the light shines and it burns your eyes. But don’t follow the blind because just like sheep they will be slaughtered. Because it’s the end, yeah it’s the end of the end. Are you ready?
9.
I’ve got an A-Bomb with your name on it. Oh, oh, oh no. Boom, BOom, BOOm, BOOM! We’ve spent far too long playing our roles in the silent majority. It’s time we all spoke up. It’s time we voiced our thoughts. It’s time we all said no! And when we ignite our souls shall unite. Our flames shall fiercely burn and our hearts will beat as one.
10.
The cancer Gods control the times while the bank machines control the times, we are gasping for clean air. Distorted view of democracy. Fascist, terrorist, empire of greed. Are you content with being controlled? The cathode rays invade the brain; remote control citizenry smoke your cigarettes and shut your mouth. I don’t know how you feel but I’d say it’s about fucking time that we overcame ourselves. And you would make a brave soldier in this war, our war against the aggressors, against the oppressors. We shall fight them on and on and burn those mother fuckers to the ground. They will scream and cry as buildings tumble down upon their lies, upon their mass deception. Upon their only weapon; fear, Fear, Fear, no we won’t FEAR AGAIN!
11.
Enter exit evening, crosses turned and feeding. Rocking and rolling in the midnight realms of love, I dream of life; a nightmare we’ve become. Stolen angels fall down to their knees. Infant rivers teething and all I can see is truth. No it doesn’t even breathe. It doesn’t even bleed. No it’s not even there. You make me want to rip my heart right out from chest and never put it back again. Can’t you see I’m losing my composure? It’s time we made a change. Heads will roll and our freedom shall be reclaimed. Reclaim control.
12.
I see right through your masks, you’re all just rats transmitting the disease. And, oh, the bank machines they only mean to enslave us all. When paper turns to gold minds enrage with a lust for power and control. And slowly we fall into the hands of greed where the reptiles feed. Hold your torch up high we can’t see without it; light the way with your fire. Burn the heretic; celebrate. Down to the guillotine, that’s where their being taken. OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!! We can’t be free until they’re dead. Down with the blade: off with their heads. OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!
13.
Kill, kill, kill them all. And we'll dance upon their freshly spilt blood. And we'll do the murder dance tonight, We'll laugh and drink and feel alright. Kill them all. We'll kill them all. Their heads shall roll. We'll kill them all. Their heads shall roll. Governments shall fall
