Late at night, I power on and select a game to play Encounter monsters and demon spawn And I blow them all away Down the twisted hall I run Searching for the key To take me to the next level And start another killing spree Killing is my business Business is good Killing is my business and business is good They start sweating when I come around Cause they know nothing will survive I got a pistol, an ax, pipe bomb, bazooka, a shot gun, a rifle and a 4 wheel drive When I see 'em coming, I open fire with ammo by the loads And I ain't gotta worry bout 'em coming back Cause I know all the cheat codes

It came to an end too soon A broken promise of golden years Death did part her from her groom All alone in the love they shared He's gone but his shadow lingers She can't shake free from the memory Life goes on and it slips thru her fingers The loving heart is an enemy Time goes by and the bed stays cold A rusted throne to the fallen king Heart still full from a love long gone Her arms embracing an empty sting

Gethsemane 05:28
Oh Lord, oh Lord, What do I see? Oh Lord, oh Lord, Am I living prophecy? Oh Lord, oh Lord, Things have got to change Oh Lord, oh Lord, I know that things will stay the same If you could see beyond tomorrow, Then you would live today Ain't nothing ever gonna change Things will always stay the same Oh Lord, oh Lord, I know my will is not your will Oh Lord, oh Lord, I pray to you still Oh Lord, oh Lord, Can you take this all away? Oh Lord, oh Lord, I know that things will stay the same If you could see beyond tomorrow You would live today Things ain't ever gonna change

This Fear 06:52
Blue skies have gone away Black clouds are all that I see In my world I cannot move I cannot breath I'm sinking fast in a sea of gray In my mind This fear It won't go away It always brings me down And every single day It's got a hold on me This fear It won't let me live It won't let me breath It won't let me see It won't let me be Rusty chains hold me down If I was strong, I could rise up and be proud In my world These prison walls, this lonely cage I've been here so long, and nothing ever seems to change In my mind

Damn the Man 05:29
Come on down to the underground Screams the sound of a clown with a frown Everybody's having fun Our decadence has just begun The sin runs deep down here in degradation Young and old gather tonight to blow their minds all just alike To come into the dark and leave the light Freedom from the man No oppression in the promised land I've had all I can stand Damn the man It's not too soon to howl at the moon To be a fool from the school of cool Put aside your inhibitions Down here there is no competition Society holds no sway over this congregation Forget your past, forget your life Everyone's vice is equal tonight Everything's gray because there is no black or white Burning souls, lake of fire Price to pay for your desire Damn the man Don't be afraid, it's all a buffet If you stay, you can play here all day Forget the fact that you know better Everyone loves their scarlet letters Eternity's a long time to fry in the fire but whatever

Look into my mind Tell me what you see Psychoanalyze me Inside my head is a deep gaping void Am I schizophrenic, or just paranoid? Is there something inside me that I just cannot see? Psychoanalyze me Manic depression, it comes and it goes Fits of dementia, they grow and they grow Am I just feeling stressed or is it insanity? Psychoanalyze me Get up all in my head I'll open wide, you can crawl inside Get up all in my head And psycho, psycho, psycho Psychoanalyze me Tell me please, who are these voice deep inside? Are they one with me or just made up by my mind? They call me a freak. they criticize my personality Psychoanalyze me Delusions of grandeur I think I am God I know that I'm different But I don't think it's odd Have I crossed over into lunacy? Psychoanalyze me

Sunshine 04:36
Empty nights bottom of a bottle The clock is ticking down to nothing new Sleep won't come Think about tomorrow Another empty day of solitude You can't save me It's all over There's no sunshine You can't save me now Hope is gone Emptiness is with me Gravity and sorrow hold me down There's no dawn Only nights of anger My light eclipsed by suicidal clouds
8.
Steam Roller 03:12
I am a psycho, locomotive Rollin off the tracks, a back street crawler I am the chill running down your back A metal soldier, I am steam roller You better run and hide Or I'll flatten your hide! Steam roller! It's coming down on you What you gonna do? There's no escape from the Steam roller, steam roller Now you've run out of time It's gonna break your mind There's no escape from the Steam roller, steam roller I am a manicac, a bull dozer Crushing everything, a bar room brawler I am the knot, deep down in your gut I'm the standard holder I am steam roller

I been down so low I been down on the floor And I lost my soul And I still haven't found what I'm looking for Reveal yourself to me Name your entity And let my soul fly free Get out! And I can't sleep And I don't dream And I can't see And I still haven't found what I'm looking for And my soul bleeds While you laugh at me I can't take anymore And I still haven't found what I'm looking for
10.
If I had a gun, and if the gun had a bullet I'd put my finger on the trigger, and I'd pull it If I had a chainsaw in my hand, You'd be in two pieces, man Cause you made your worst mistake, the day that you pissed me off Wait two weeks to buy a gun Supposed to stop me from shooting someone But I'm a patient man, I don't mind waiting for you You ain't got much but it's more than me And I'll see you die for my jealousy When you get to hell, warn the devil that you lit my fuse I'm gonna get my revenge The revenge of an angry man Gonna get my revenge Cause I don't care, cause I don't give a damn I'm gonna get my revenge Runnin' your mouth is how you made me made Cost me my woman, everything I had Now I'm down and out, I got nothing left to lose Angry don't describe what I am Son of a bitch, you made me a madman I start to sweat, whenever I hear your name I crack my knuckles soon as I wake up I grab a pot of kickass and I pour me a cup No, I'm not a happy man but that's never what I claimed No, I'm not pissed off at the world But I am mad as hell at you You took away my life and you took away my love And I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
11.
Smiling, laughing wildly All while I pour my coffee I eat, the animals you save And I kick your face to the grave Explosions, outta your head Try to walk a line and you end up dead You can open your eyes but you can't see No guarantee for sanity Building you up, tearing you down We'll always be killers and clowns You cry and you laugh You smile and you frown Cause we're in your head, the killers and clowns Knock knock, open up the door Are your hearing what I'm saying? What am I here for? Panic, grab it, open up and stab it You've got a semi truck of bad luck and your life sucks Good bye, gonna watch you die I'm gonna make your mama cry Doom and gloom are your best friends I'm gonna take you to the end

It's colder in the winter And warmer in the spring Each day that passes by Another trouble brings The criminals can't be contained When the jails are overrun And global cartels' fields of death Are growing in the sun When wars fly on the breeze When man creates disease Behold man's greatest fear This world's last days are here And behold a white horse: And he that sat on him had a bow, And a crown was given unto him and he went forth conquering, and to conquer There's poverty and decadence Living side by side Illusionary boundaries How long till worlds collide We judge each other solely by The color of our skin We never learned from history So we lived it all again When visitors from space we see When tomorrow becomes reality Behold the grand design Behold the end of time And there went out another horse that was red: And power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the Earth and that they should kill one another And there was given unto him a great sword And the sky fills with storm clouds And the tremors fill the ground And the viruses run wild 'moungst the ranks of men All sinners beware Behold the stare of the face of God When you're bleeding yourself on the inside, It's only a matter of time before you die A blazing wind blows thru the trees And famine brings us to our knees But now it is too late to pray The skies open for judgement day Cannons fire like sounding drums Governments fall with the bombs And evil men take advantage of the crumbling of the mother Earth Rain pours down and waves crash in The buildings fall and the fires burn The reaper rides a rapid race As we all stare into God's face And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand And the seas have turned to red And the ruins make our bed And the spark of hope is lost 'moungst the ranks of men All sinners beware Behold the stare of the face of God And I looked, and behold a pale horse And his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the Earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the Earth Mothers weep as their babies die The children of an angry time The wrath of God is plain to see When we become our enemy
