Primal Scream - Volume One lyrics



Tracks



01. State Of The State

Take him down
Take him out
Blind his eyes
Shut his mouth

Screaming sensations governmental
Creations
And you are part of the plan

The outrage continues...

Anarchy
State of the state
Leaderless legions
Thrive on hate

Fatal rejection, suicidal connection
And you are part of the plan

The outrage continues...

Shouting out slogans, politically frozen
And all in the name of god

02. War And Sin

Simple things for simple minds
Harmless thoughts, mental crimes

Psychotherapy for the masses
Without reason, without rhyme

A Primal Scream to clear your throat
Searching hard for the antidote

Aggressive desires
Oppressive environs
The reason, the fault
Exploited beyond compare
Misguided, fair is fair
Grinds me to a halt

Bear down
Drive hard
Cry rights
War and Sin

03. Last Breath

Pain and torment coming your way
The reapers hacking down your door
A shroud of silence
Darkens your soul
You have no place to run or go

Take your last breath

Reeking sweat drips from your brow
You feel your time is near
A faint murmur rings in your ear
You know your time is near

Take your last breath

Whirling and spinning your body slams down
Your course, you're headed for doom
There is no answer to what you will take
Your body has rotted to waste

04. Scream Till You Bleed

Bashing and thrashing
Fight to the front to see
My house of horrors

Scream till you bleed

A time for enticement
Spawned from the demon seed
A time for excitement

Scream till you bleed

Now you have seen it
And still you don't believe
That I still want you to

Scream till you bleed

05. Kill The Light

Sunrise
Alone again I
Close my eyes

Curl up tight
Protected from
The ultraviolet
Light
Dangerous rays

Deliver me the
Darkness
The sun it
Hurts my eyes

Symptom of a
Sickness
Few can
Understand
Horrorland

I can't take much more of this
Senses screaming dangerous
Pale skin turning red
Kill the light, kill it dead

Sundown and growing stronger
I am the shadows growing longer
Reign forever, rule the night
Sunrise coming, kill the light

06. Poisoned

Drink of my cup
Sample my mead
Golden loaves
Fulfill a need
Gorge yourself
Until you're sated
Taste the ale
Taste my hatred

Arsenic, hemlock, belladonna

Lie still
The deeds been done
The battle's over
It's been won
Take your place
Amongst the dead
I'll like the throne
In your stead

Can this norseman
Be kept down
Or will the toxins
Seize his crown
Lifeline pounds a beat
Of fury
Arctic blood he'll rage
In glory

07. Ignorance Is No Excuse

Ignorance is no excuse
Arrogance is not the answer
To open eyes alone,
Is worth the price to be paid

Ignorance is no excuse

Afraid of something
So you kill it
Strapped to a table
You dissect it
Fear of the unknown
will be your downfall
Apathetic, pathetic
Take all the lies
Half truths, falsifications
We see thru your feeble whines
Won't fall by the wayside

08. Megaton

Mutually assured destruction
A chessgame with millions of lives
Elected officials misguided
Truth trumph lies
Megaton

Capabilities of carnage
A ridiculous capacity
To bring on nuclear winter
Sanctuary

See the people scatter
Watch them disappear
Frozen whine and cower
Feeling what grows near

Nowhere to turn
Final destination
Blowing through the air

09. Mr. McCreedy

My name is Mr Creedy
Welcome to my home
The macabre & bizarre
is all I've ever known

Closed shutters hide broken windows
Weeds overgrown
Dangling branches cast strange shadows
Creak and moan

My name means nothing
Nothing to you
But wait and watch my friend
I'm almost thru

Blackened darkness fills my world
I'm calling to you
My existence can't compare
I thrive on you

10. Shot On Sight

Love thy mother
Obey thy father
Betrayed by brother
Deceitful son
Shot on sight
Reign of terror
Watching each move
Don't move in haste
Step back you'll loose
Shot on sight
I was born a king
I was born to rule
I've enslaved you all
You were the fools
Now you disown me
And I am dethroned
But I took your lives
And burnt down your homes
