1. War Is Coming

Prepare yourself for the worst it's coming soon
I believe in those foretold prophecies of doom
They say the end is close, it's coming fast
Not every single one of us is gonna last
So, stand and fight or kill yourself right now
It'll be one less motherfucker to kill
Skin shot, burned, stabbed, scorched and torn
This pain is real - you can't ignore...

War is coming

Arm yourself with the right to kill at will
Shoot to kill it's them or you
Time to choose, time to choose or die
Blood's pouring from the hole in your side
Take the pain - it'll focus and strengthen you
Take the pain - or your life's fuckin' through
Face the pain - let it become part of you
Take the pain

War is coming

Prepare yourself for the worst it's coming soon
I believe in those foretold prophecies of doom
They say the end is close, it's coming fast
Not every single one of us is gonna last
So, stand and fight or kill yourself right now
It'll be one less motherfucker to kill
Skin shot, burned, stabbed, scorched and torn
This pain is real - you can't ignore...

War is coming


2. Nonexistence

I'm gonna cut out my eyes
And rip out my tongue
I should just puncture my ears
I'm not alive now
We are the unborn - a child in the womb
Sheltered from the storm

I'm gonna cut out my eyes
And rip out my tongue
I should just puncture my ears
I'm not alive now
We are the unborn - a child in the womb
Sheltered from the storm

We just want the truth now
We just want to know

I'm gonna cut out my eyes
And rip out my tongue
I should just puncture my ears
I'm not alive now
We are the unborn - a child in the womb
Sheltered from the storm

We just want the truth
I'm gonna cut out your eyes
We just want the truth
And rip out your tongue
We just want to know.


3. A Journey Into Darkness

I'm not the only one
Who's been
Thinking the way I've been
Things got to change
If they don't we'll all be dead

We've got to watch, and listen
To those things we aren't told
Our lives seem dictated
By those who
We don't know of
I'm telling you
There's a cold wind coming soon

Break free
We've got to
Break free
Or else your life is ruined
Break free from the one that binds you
Break free from the dark
Break free from the one that confines you
Break free from the dark
I'm not the only one
Who's been
Thinking teh way i've been
Things got to change
If they don't we'll all be dead
Break free.


4. Animal Instinct

Survival
A vicious lust for blood
I'll kill `til I die
Terrifying death
Horrifying hell
Nauseating screams
Screams that go unheard
A vicious lust for blood
I'll kill `til I die
Terrifying death
Horrifying hell
Nauseating screams
Screams that go unheard
Suffocate my soul
I'll take away your life
Commanding me to live
I sentence you to die.

You can't stop me
I'll just kill again
You'll never stop me
I'll kill until I'm dead.

Survival

A vicious lust for blood
I'll kill `til I die
Terrifying death
Horrifying hell
Nauseating screams
Screams that go unheard
Suffocate my soul
I'll take away your life
Commanding me to live
I sentence you to die.


5. Death Or Glory

[Running Wild cover]

[Music: Moti]
[Lyrics: Finlay/Moti]

Reach for the rifle - go for the gun
Saddle the beast huge load to heave
Unstoppa bullrace now begun
Cry for the slaughter who would believe

Hunting the red one - blood on their breath
Screaming horisons for clues of the kill
Blowing their own horn - stinking of death

Tally ho.

Touch of the tail but what to expect
Dog don't believe why to die for the queen
Lies to the allies - wrath with respect
Blood hounds of hades - heeding the scream

Pounding of hooves they cannot control
Mud flying high as shit hits the fan
Break for the border - the thrill of it all

Tally ho.

Clawing the reigns
Of a world gone mad treason
Breaking the chains

Death or glory - pride or pain
Breaking down the rules of greed and gain
Hunter's hounds in the hands of the hunted
Death or glory

Clawing the reigns
Of a world gone mad treason
Breaking the chains

Death or glory - pride or pain
Breaking down the rules of greed and gain
Hunter's hounds in the hands of the hunted
Death or glory

Death or glory - pride or pain
Death or glory


6. Burning Blood

My face shows no emotion
The mind of an animal
Behind human eyes
Restrained with a rope
Crudely tied to wrists and ankles
Eyes jellied from chemical injections
Devoid of all compassion
I place no value on human life
Body temperature drops rapidly
But death comes slow
Post-mortal muscle reflexes - repeatedly choked

Your torture brings me pleasure
I climax as I murder
A mass of empty flesh, chosen to die brutally
Not one has survived - my torture and abuse
Unbearable pain and cruelty
Hatred for all fucking life

Abducted, beaten and murdered
A slow, cold-blooded death
Bones have been boiled
And removed of all flesh
Your torture brings me pleasure
I climax as I murder

Tortured until your death
Loss of blood drains from you now
Out leaks the human soul

My face shows no emotion
The mind of an animal
Behind human eyes
Devoid of all compassion
I place no value on human life
Body temperature drops rapidly - but death comes slow
Post-mortal muscle reflexes - repeatedly choked

Your torture brings me pleasure
I climax as I murder

Burning - I'm burning your blood


7. Manipulation

Don't speak to me about freedom
Don't speak to me about being free
Don't speak to me about freedom
Don't speak to me about being free

My mind is mine.
Amputate my mind
You just want to
My mind is mine.
No one else's
Manipulation
Now it's too late
They're gonna take
Away my freedom
Amputate my mind
You just want to
My mind is mine.
No one else's
Manipulation

Don't speak to me about freedom
Don't speak to me about being free
Don't speak to me about freedom
Don't speak to me it's just a fucking lie!


8. 4:20

Sit back and hold your breath, just let nature take effect
A warm glow inside my bones
The touch of velvet rubbed against my soul
Thoughts of things you've always known
Thoughts of things you've always known
Break through and listen, to yourself
To your Self

Let go of perception - enter true reality
I can see through my third eye...
Sit back and hold your breath, just let nature take effect
A warm glow inside my bones
The touch of velvet rubbed against my soul
Thoughts of things you've always known
Thoughts of things you've always known
Break through and listen, to yourself
To your Self

Let go of perception - enter true reality
A sea of green will set us free
Dank
Expand my inner being
Through what the Earth provides
I hear her voice aliing
The hour has arrived...

Sit back and hold your breath, just let nature take effect
A warm glow inside my bones
The touch of velvet rubbed against my soul
Thoughts of things you've always known
Thoughts of things you've always known
Break through and listen, to yourself
To your Self

Let go of perception - enter true reality
It's 4:20


9. Revenge Of The Zombie

From the grave I will escape
Maggots crawl from out my skull
The worms they feed upon my brain
The life I lost I now regain

And my skin has molded green
Bullet holes through flesh and bone
Half my face rotted off
I wait to drink your fucking blood - blood!

Hunting - killing
Murderous - I'll cut your fucking head off!

A butcher's knife clenched in my fist
Revenge of the Zombie
Stabbing you to fucking death
Revenge of the Zombie
Hacking eyes right from your face
Revenge of the Zombie
I feed upon your dying brain
Revenge of the Zombie
To live your life in horrid pain
Revenge of the Zombie
Open sores start to decay
Revenge of the Zombie
New human beings I create
Revenge of the Zombie
From my spell you can't escape
Revenge of the Zombie


10. As I Die

Tortured - been bleeding so long, I'm hungry, for my death
To come now, waiting - hatred
Dreaming of life
False hope
Dying to live, waiting to die - alone in this world
Nausea - sickness, a lifeless living body barely alive
Just breathing, no feeling - none left, not for years
Alone now, waiting to die
Bastards
Don't let me die this way
Don't let me die

Suffer in this torture - too weak to take my life
Painful, no rest - a slow death, I can't sleep
Fear - anticipation - indulgence in my own thoughts
And pain - alone now, waiting to die
Bastards
Don't let me die this way
Don't let me die

Tortured - been bleeding so long, I'm hungry, for my death
To come now, waiting - hatred
Dreaming of life
False hope
Dying to live, waiting to die - alone in this world
Nausea - sickness, a lifeless living body barely alive
Just breathing, no feeling - none left, not for years
Alone now, waiting to die
Bastards
Don't let me die this way
Don't let me die


11. Night Visions

Those nightmares still keep me awake
I wish that I could just sleep
And when I open my eyes
Somehow I don't feel the same
Those visions tell me to kill
Fight my thoughts - my own thoughts
I can't tell wrong from right
They break me down - they break me down
I'm slipping away
Those visions tell me to kill
Night visions
Those visions tell me to kill
Night visions
Those nightmares still keep me awake
I wish that I could just sleep
And when I open my eyes
Somehow I don't feel the same
Fight my thoughts - my own thoughts
I can't tell wrong from right
They break me down - they break me down
I'm slipping away
Kill me before I wake


12. Caged And Disgraced

So many caged - caged and disgraced
Too many inside - need to be out
So many caged - caged and disgraced
For doing nothing but pleasing themselves
Freedom is strength
They want to take it too
I need a place where I can do
What I want to
Sent away - for being myself
Sent away - for being me
I just wanted to live - my own life
I just wanted to live
free

So many caged - caged and disgraced
Too many inside - need to be out
So many caged - caged and disgraced
For doing nothing but pleasing themselves
Freedom is strength
They want to take it too
I need a place where I can do
What I want to

How can you judge how another one lives?
It's victimless.
