YOUR SINS PERSIST IN MEMORY
TOO MANY TO IGNORE
YOUR EXISTENCE BRINGS US PAIN
WE BEAT THE DRUMS OF WAR
YOUR FATE IS SEALED BY DEED AND BREED
OUR STRENGTH IS FUELED BY HATE
THE INNOCENTS THAT TAKE YOUR SIDE
WILL SUFFER THE SAME FATE - THE SAME FATE

STRIKE!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - WE BURN!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - TONIGHT!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - THEY BURN!
KRUSH THE ENEMY!

DRAWN IN BLOOD / MY BLACKENED DECREE
A WARNING TO THE WISE
YOU MAY RUN OR YOU MAY FIGHT
BUT DEATH SHALL ARRIVE
STRONG ARE BLESSED / WEAK ARE CURSED
UNHOLY TERROR MY PLIGHT
YOUR HOUSES BURN, YOUR WOMEN WAIL
WITH GRIEF INTO THE NIGHT - INTO THE NIGHT

KRUSH THE ENEMY - KRUSH THE ENEMY

STRIKE!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - WE BURN!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - TONIGHT!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - THEY BURN!
KRUSH THE ENEMY!

YOUR WORST FEARS ARE REALIZED
YOUR COURAGE FADING FAST
FALLEN VICTIMS MASSACRED
BY PHANTOMS FROM THEIR PAST
SCORN FOR SCORN, DOOM FOR DOOM
BLOOD THE PRICE THEY PAY
A FIELD OF BLOODY CORPSES
THEIR WOMEN ARE OUR SLAVES

STRIKE!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - WE BURN!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - TONIGHT!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - THEY BURN!
KRUSH THE ENEMY - TONIGHT!
KRUSH THE ENEMY!
KRUSH THE ENEMY!
KRUSH THE ENEMY!

BACKED INTO A CORNER
ENEMY PRESENCE NEAR
HEART AND MIND ARE RACING
BUT THEY CAN'T OUTRUN MY FEAR

SPOTLIGHTS KILL THE DARKNESS
DOGS ON THE TRAIL
BULLETS MARKED WITH MY NAME
TO STOP MY BREAK FROM JAIL
BREAK FROM JAIL!

INSULT OR INJURY MATTERS TO ME NONE
LIVING LIFE BY WAY OF THE GUN

FREEDOM WAITS BEYOND THE WALLS
OF CONCRETE AND STEEL
I WANNA LIVE MY LIFE'S AT STAKE
I TOOK A CHANCE TO MAKE A BREAK

LIVING AND DYING - IT'S ALL THE SAME TO ME
MY NAME IS HELL - I HAVE BEEN UNLEASHED
UNLEASHED!

SUDDENLY THE PANIC STOPS
THE PATH IS FUCKING CLEAR
SLAY RESISTANCE WITH FULL FORCE
HEAD-FIRST WITHOUT FEAR

PIGS ARE PAID TO KILL
BUT I'M KILLING FOR THE THRILL
I'LL TAKE THESE BASTARDS WITH ME
I SWEAR THEIR BLOOD WILL SPILL
BLOOD WILL SPILL!

INSULT OR INJURY MATTERS TO ME NONE
LIVING LIFE BY WAY OF THE GUN

FREEDOM WAITS BEYOND THE WALLS
OF CONCRETE AND STEEL
I WANNA LIVE MY LIFE'S AT STAKE
I TOOK A CHANCE TO MAKE A BREAK

SUFFERING THE TIES THAT BIND ME TOGETHER
DESTROY THE SYSTEM THAT HELD ME DOWN
RELEASING MYSELF UNTO MYSELF
I HAVE BEEN UNLEASHED!

SCREAMING IN THE FACE OF DEATH
PUMPED FULL OF LEAD
BLOODY BUT UNBOWED I LEAVE A TRAIL OF THE DEAD

MY LAST STAND THEY'RE CLOSING IN
THEY'VE GOT THE PLACE SURROUNDED
HUNTED FOR A WAY OUT
I FOUND IT!

SUFFERING THE TIES THAT BIND ME TOGETHER
DESTROY THE SYSTEM THAT HELD ME DOWN
RELEASING MYSELF UNTO MYSELF
I HAVE BEEN UNLEASHED!

UNLEASHED!
X5

WE THOUGHT WE COULD STOP
WHENEVER WE WANTED
WE THOUGHT OUR HOUSE
COULD NEVER BE HAUNTED
LOSS OF CONTROL
SYMPTOM OF DISEASE
SACRIFICE ALL
DEPENDENCY

SELF WILL RUN RIOT - SELF WILL RUN RIOT

TRAPPED IN ILLUSION
ANOTHER STATE OF MIND
AVOIDING THE MIRROR
JUST ONE MORE TIME
SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS
FROM OUR PATTERNS OF LIFE
SELF DESTRUCTIVE
THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE

SELF WILL RUN RIOT - SELF WILL RUN RIOT

JUSTIFICATION, DESOLIZATION, SUBSTITUTION,
DISTRUST OF OTHERS
DEGRADATION, DERELICTION, ISOLATION
AND LOSS OF CONTROL
LYING AND CHEATING, YOUR LOVED ONES ARE WEEPING
YOU DON'T GIVE A DAMN UNTIL NEITHER DO THEY
THE DOCTORS AND PREACHERS ARE FAILING TO SAVE US
KILLING OURSELVES AT THE END OF THE DAY

REPEAT FIRST VERSE

SELF WILL RUN RIOT - SELF WILL RUN RIOT
SELF WILL RUN RIOT - SELF WILL RUN RIOT

LYING AND CHEATING, YOUR LOVED ONES ARE WEEPING
YOU DON'T GIVE A DAMN UNTIL NEITHER DO THEY
THE DOCTORS AND PREACHERS ARE FAILING TO SAVE US
KILLING OURSELVES AT THE END OF THE DAY

THE HIDEOUS SECRET PLAN HAS BEEN EXPOSED
THROUGH TV AND RADIO INFECTION GROWS
BLINDED YOUTH ARE DOOMED BEFORE THEY START
A LOSER'S ROAD DEVOID OF BRAIN OR HEART

WHY?!

WHAT POSSESSES THESE FOOLS TO CHOOSE THIS PATH?
WHY IDOLIZE THE VICTIMS OF SOCIAL WRATH?
BRAINWASHED FOLLOWING DEGENERATE WEAK
THROW AWAY THE GIFT OF INTELLIGENT SPEECH

A PALE FACED COPY, A DISGRACE TO DISGRACE
AN IMPOSTER WITH A CONSTANT DEAD-END CHASE!

SICKENED - BY THE IGNORANCE OF MAN
STUPID FUCKS - THEY HAVE NO PLAN
SICKENED - BY THE IGNORANCE OF MAN
EXTINCTION IS - THE PLAGUE AT HAND

THE PLAGUE AT HAND - THE PLAGUE AT HAND

SOME DAY SOON THE CHOSEN WILL SEE THE LIGHT
AND SWING THEIR AXES IN HONOR OF NEON KNIGHTS
THE NEW STACKS WILL BLAZE WITH MEGAWATTS
TILL THAT DAY WE'LL KEEP THE FURNACE HOT

ONE BURNING QUESTION I STILL HAVE TO ASK
WHEN YOU'RE SENT TO HELL WE'LL SEE HOW LONG YOU LAST!

SICKENED - BY THE IGNORANCE OF MAN
PIECE-OF-SHITS - WITHOUT A PLAN
SICKENED - BY THE IGNORANCE OF MAN
EXTINCTION IS - THE PLAGUE AT HAND

WHY?!

BORN WITH A HEART AS BLACK AS SPACE
BETWEEN THE STARS NO LIGHT ESCAPES
PLEAS FOR MERCY ON DEAF EARS
FREEZING STARE THAT SHEDS NO TEARS
NO PITY FROM A FACE OF STONE
CLOAKED IN HATE CONCUSSED ALONE

PERSECUTION / EXECUTION / ELECTROCUTION
BORN WITH A BLACKENED HEART
BORN WITH A BLACKENED HEART

BORN WITH A HEART IMMUNE TO GRACE
ANOTHER DIES, A FORGOTTEN FACE
SECRETS PASSED ON VACANT STREETS
WHISPERED NAMES NO ONE REPEATS
THE MOURNFUL CHORUS CRIES REFRAIN
LIKE A DEAD WORLD WITH AN UNKNOWN NAME

PERSECUTION / EXECUTION / ELECTROCUTION
BORN WITH A BLACKENED HEART

BURN A CANDLE FOR THOSE BENEATH
SUSTAINING THE COMFORT OF ETERNAL GRIEF
A SOUL SURROUNDED BY FORTRESS WALLS
BUILT BEFORE MAN LEARNED TO CRAWL
NO WEAPONS CAN EVER CRUSH THIS SHIELD
INVINCIBLE YET IMPRISONED HERE

PERSECUTION / EXECUTION / ELECTROCUTION
BORN WITH A BLACKENED HEART
X4

DAY OF ANNIHILATION
DAWNING ON THE SEA OF FLAMES
THE SUN SHONE BRIGHT THEY WISHED THE NIGHT
WOULD HIDE THE LIST OF NAMES

SCORCHED EARTH POLICY IN EFFECT
BROKEN TEETH AND SNAPPING NECKS
BURY THE GUILTY IN SHALLOW GRAVES
ON BLOODY KNEES FOREVER SLAIN

SCORCHED EARTH POLICY

DRAIN THE CHALICE SACRED WINE
THE DESERTS QUENCH THEIR THIRST
BURNING TEMPLES PROPHESIZE
PREDICTIONS OF THE WORST

SCORCHED EARTH POLICY IN EFFECT
WASTELAND FOLLOWS RETREAT
INVADERS TRIUMPH DIES IN THE FACE
IN THEIR OWN DEFEAT

SCORCHED EARTH POLICY
SCORCHED EARTH POLICY
SCORCHED EARTH POLICY
SCORCHED EARTH POLICY
SCORCHED EARTH POLICY

REVERSE OSMOSIS EXTRACTION OF LIFE
AS BLOOD BREAKS INTO BOIL
A HOLLOW VICTORY UNDER SMOKE FILLED SKIES
A KINGDOM OF BLACKENED SOIL

SCORCHED EARTH POLICY
SCORCHED EARTH POLICY
SCORCHED EARTH POLICY

I WALK, YOU RUN
YOU SEEK, I HIDE
YOU FAILED TO THE SEE THE DEVIL INSIDE
INVADE YOUR BRAIN
YOUR LOSS, MY GAIN
I'LL TAKE PLEASURE FROM YOUR PAIN
FROM YOUR PAIN
FROM YOUR PAIN

MANIPULATE
MY MIND IS SET
I'LL TAKE AND TAKE WITH NO REGRET
DECEPTIVE WAYS
FEEL YOU OUT
YOU OPEN UP WITH NO SELF-DOUBT
NO SELF-DOUBT
NO SELF-DOUBT
NO SELF-DOUBT

I WANT SO BADLY TO BELIEVE
A SITTING TARGET FOR YOU TO DECEIVE
NO GUARDIAN ANGEL HAS APPEARED
HELPFUL ADVICE ARE WORDS THAT I FEAR
YOU LISTENED TO MY PRIVATE AMBITION
SAVED IT UP FOR YOUR AMMUNITION
TILL THE MOMENT I LEAST EXPECT
USED ME UP TILL THERE'S NOTHING LEFT

GUARDIAN ANGEL - BURNED YOU DOWN
GUARDIAN ANGEL - UNDERGROUND
GUARDIAN ANGEL - BURNED YOU DOWN
GUARDIAN ANGEL - CAN'T BE FOUND

NO GUARDIAN ANGEL

REPEAT 1ST VERSE

YOU WANT SO BADLY TO BELIEVE
A SITTING TARGET FOR ME TO DECEIVE
YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL HAS APPEARED
HELPFUL ADVICE AS YOU CRY IN YOUR BEER
I LISTENED TO YOUR PRIVATE AMBITION
SAVED IT UP FOR MY AMMUNITION
TILL THE MOMENT YOU LEAST EXPECT
I USED YOU UP TILL THERE'S NOTHING LEFT

REPEAT CHORUS

FORCED INTO SLAVERY
MY 9 TO 5 DEATH MACHINE
I WON'T DELIVER
ON THE PROMISE OF AMERICAN DREAM
NOSE TO THE GRINDSTONE
NEVER DARE TO BREAK FREE
LIKE RATS IN A MAZE
LOST FOR ETERNITY

CORPSES FEED THE FLAMES
WHEN DREAD PREVAILS
DEATH BY DESIGN
ANOTHER LESSON FAILS?

THE CONTROLLER

I LAUGH AT THE REBELS
TRYING TO FIND THEIR DESTINY
DOOMED AND OPPRESSED
BY AN UNSEEN ENEMY
CHAINED TO THE TREADMILL
TILL THE DAY YOU EXPIRE
A WORTHLESS PROTESTING
YOU NEVER STOP TO QUESTION WHY

CORPSES FEED THE FLAMES
WHEN DREAD PREVAILS
DEATH BY DESIGN
ANOTHER LESSON FAILS?

THE CONTROLLER - CONTROLLING YOU
THE CONTROLLER - CONTROLLING ME

FEEL THE GRIP
OF IRON HANDS
YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE
AT IT'S DEMANDS

CORPSES FEED THE FLAMES
WHEN DREAD PREVAILS
DEATH BY DESIGN
ANOTHER LESSON FAILS?

THE CONTROLLER - CONTROLLING YOU
THE CONTROLLER - CONTROLLING ME

FEEL THE GRIP
OF IRON HANDS
YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE
AT IT'S DEMANDS

WE'VE NEVER MET / BUT YOU'RE IN MY THOUGHTS
YOUR PICTURES ADORN MY WALLS
I KNOW WHERE YOU WORK - I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT I CALL
YOU ASK WHO'S THERE AND I START TO SPEAK
OF THE PLANS I'VE GOT FOR YOU
MAKING SWEET LOVE WITH MY HANDS ON YOUR THROAT
UNTIL YOUR FLESH TURNS BLUE

FEELING MY STARE - EVERYWHERE
FEELING MY STARE TONIGHT
A FACE IN THE CROWD - AN OMINOUS CLOUD
FEELING MY STARE TONIGHT
I'M GETTING CLOSER - TO YOU!

SATURDAY NIGHT / YOU'RE OUT ON THE TOWN
YOUR FRIENDS DRINK AND DANCE
ACROSS THE ROOM I WATCH YOUR BODY SWAY
YOU NEVER GIVE ME A FUCKING GLANCE
YOU ACT LIKE TRASH WITH EVERY JERK IN THE PLACE
YOU'RE GONNA LEARN SOME RESPECT
A REAL LADY CAN'T DRINK OR SMOKE
WITH BLOOD POURING OUT HER NECK

FEELING MY STARE - EVERYWHERE
ANYPLACE YOU TURN
A FACE IN THE CROWD - AN OMINOUS CLOUD
ANYPLACE YOU TURN
I'M GETTING CLOSER - TO YOU!

CRIME OF OBSESSION - NOW I'M HUNTING YOU
YOU'RE MY POSSESSION - I TRACK YOUR EVERY MOVE
PERSISTENT DELUSION - FROM VOICES IN MY HEAD
VICTIM OF ILLUSION - REALITY I DREAD
I DREAD! I DREAD! I DREAD!

I SEARCH AND LURK / ON THE INTERNET
YOUR SPACE IS MY-SPACE TOO
I READ YOUR COMMENTS TO ALL THOSE MEN
YOU MUST THINK THAT WE'RE ALL FOOLS
MY MIND BELIEVES THAT YOU BELONG TO ME
I REALLY NEED YOU BY MY SIDE
IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU / THEN NOBODY CAN
YOUR FINAL CHOICE IS ME OR DIE

FEELING MY STARE - EVERYWHERE
FEELING MY STARE TONIGHT
A FACE IN THE CROWD - AN OMINOUS CLOUD
FEELING MY STARE TONIGHT
AND NOW I AM - AND NOW I'M STALKING YOU!
AND NOW I'M STALKING YOU!
X2
AND NOW I'M STALKING YOU - STALKER!

MAIDEN SPIKES OF IRON IN THEIR BACKS
LIMBS PLUCKED OFF THEIR BODIES BY THE RACK
BEHEADED CORPSES FROM THE GUILLOTINE
VICTIMS OF MEDIEVAL DEATH MACHINES

HERETICS, TRAITORS AND COMMON CRIMINALS
INQUISITIONS THEY BETRAYED
PURIFICATION COMES THROUGH PAIN?

THEY NOW CONTROL - YOUR DESTINY
NOW THEY PROLONG - YOUR AGONY
YOUR PUNISHMENT - CRUEL AND VULGAR
SICK HUMAN TORTURE - IT THRIVES IN OUR CULTURE

ANAL IMPALEMENT ON THE JUDAS CHAIR
VAGINAS MUTILATED BY THE PEAR
TEETH IMPLODED BY THE HEAD CRUSHER
TORMENT DEVICES BUILT TO MAKE YOU SUFFER

HERETICS, TRAITORS AND COMMON CRIMINALS
INQUISITIONS DISOBEYED
PURIFICATION COMES THROUGH PAIN?

YOU DARE DEFY THE LAWS OF THE OFFICIAL DOCTRINE?
YOUR MISERY HAS JUST BEGUN

MACHINES OF MALICE - ANCIENT HIGH-TECH RAGE
STRANGE AMUSEMENT - IT'S A HUMAN DISGRACE

AND YOU THOUGHT IT WAS OVER NOW DIDN'T YOU?
YOUR FATE IS NOW IN THEIR HANDS

HUMAN SACRIFICE - ON DISPLAY
ENTERTAINMENT - FOR THE HUMAN RACE?
DISGRACE! DISGRACE! DISGRACE! DISGRACE!

THEY NOW CONTROL - YOUR DESTINY
NOW THEY PROLONG - YOUR AGONY
YOUR PUNISHMENT - CRUEL AND VULGAR
SICK HUMAN TORTURE - AND WE ARE THE VULTURES

WE ARE THE VULTURES - WE ARE THE VULTURES

WE ARE THE VULTURES - MACHINES OF MALICE
