1. Crystal Ann
[instrumetal]
["poetry without words, so delicately arousing, taking you away beyond mere notes to where crystal ann's ethereal beauty seems more like a presence than simple song."]
2. Alison Hell
["a young girl, terrified, there's something out there. but is it real? it must be, because it's watching her. her pleas for comfort and reassurance are ignored, and soon, all she has left is her imagination... and that's the most terrifying thing of all."]
alice isn't it frightening
alice aren't you scared
alice isn't it wonderful
living life afraid
don't look around the corner
i might be lurking there
under the bed at night
you're up till dawn again
alison hell, your mind begins to fold
alison hell, aren't you growing cold
alison hell, you are looking blue
alice in hell, what else can you do
i begin my rule, life hideous in your mind
crying out, you've lost your doll
it isn't worth a dime
alison hell, your mind begins to fold
alison hell, aren't you growing cold
alison hell, what are you looking for
alice in hell, soon i close the door
sitting in the corner, you are naked and alone
no one listened to your fears, you've created me
alice isn't it frightening
alice aren't you scared
i was killed at birth
i shoot this final scene
you're in the basement
you're trapped insanity
alison hell, what were you looking for
alison hell, as i close the door
alison hell, here you shall dwell
alison hell, alice dwells in hell
alice
alison
alice
in hell
goodbye
3. W.T.Y.D.
Catch a shooting star, burn it to a crisp
Born into death, will you take the risk
See buckets and buckets, yeah, buckets of sin
You'll never end and can never begin
Chorus:
Welcome To Your Death (x3)
No forest of pleasure or fields of pain
High-rise at night, see the pavements of stain
A beckoning hand from those who were slain
Now you can sleep again
Repeat Chorus
I take the night and I stretch it wide
And I see all, you hide, I died
So slip right in, sip the wine
The caution flashes but the water's fine
Repeat Chorus
4. Wicked Mystic
All throughout the centuries, existing year to year
Lives on the powerful entity to thrive on pain and fear
A derelict of heavenly Gods, a feeling from within
Weakened minds are perfect prey, corrosion will begin
Chorus:
Some won't fight, the battle is forsaken
Show no might, the dark side has awakened
Even in the holiest the curious can be found
Their wonderment is dangerous as virtue is but bound
Moral codes broken
What's the sin that lurks within, the burning emotion of hatred
Repeat Chorus
Wicked Mystic
Hatred lurks in all of us, no one is exempt
It's proof of evil in our souls, is this the tempter's intent
A derelict of heavenly Gods, a feeling from within
Weak minds are perfect prey for corrosion to begin
Repeat Chorus
Wicked Mystic
Wicked Mystic, Mystic
5. Word Salad
Closets of my mind destroyed, as I enter outward from a void
Corpses white have strapped me down, I rise above then fall
Tactual hallucination, cockroaches infest the wall
Psychic pain on ice, I hurt
Devoid strength my life, inert
Anger fills they've shocked me back
White corpses turn to black
I run on psychic gasoline, my fuel shall burn you all
Chorus:
Word Salad, no ballad
Word Salad, no ballad
Diabolic plot, a toy, my brain the corpses to destroy
Prick my arm, injection fed, it's poison, I'm no fool
Tetanus shot, be sure it's not, I wish I were at school
Closets of my mind destroyed, but I enter inward, black void
Hatred turns to apathy, led down this dark abyss,
Good night, farewell you pig from hell, this world I shall not miss
Chorus:
Word Salad, no ballad
Word Salad
Woken up from death, nausea
Catatonic stupor, anoxia
Remaining still I hold onto a sense of permanence
Negativistic fear of pain, algophobic life sentence
Moral, physical decay, hatred withered away
Scourge of God he makes me pay, I shall not live or die
Vegetative judgment passed, my only thought to cry
6. Phantasmagoria
I have chosen you my friend, you're mine
Locked inside this frightening dream
Nowhere to hide
Every night my demons you will see
An apparition festival, through hell you'll ride
Chorus:
Phantasmagoria
Sleep well
Phantasmagoria
In hell
Someone is here calling out your name
Look out, I play inside your brain
Fleeing from my shadows, you'll never pass my test
Don't you know that ghosts never rest
Repeat Chorus
Approaching, you writhe, we take control
Unholy inquisition, sentence very cold
My servants, demons, take you down the hole
Your mind destroyed, now I want your soul
Repeat Chorus
Phantasmagoria
Phantasmagoria
In Hell!
7. Human Insecticide [Live]
Psychotic tendencies have put me here for life
Dreams of smashing little things before they ruin my life
Find means capable of smothering a flea
Extermination is their end, escaping not from me
Chorus:
Retaliate
Decapitate--I love to see them bleed
Annihilate
I am human insecticide
Creepy black mass, I see one down below
Prepare to strike, act quickly now, strike the fatal blow
Extinguishing the menace, they will know my name
Destroying these, the lives of waste, delivered now to pain
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Asphyxiate the flame of life
From hatred they will die
Power kept in my control
Their souls are caged with mine
Expelled from life, they cannot hide, I will find them out
Their game's lost, I hunt them down, their end without a doubt
Psychotic tendencies, my dreams are coming true
My plans are set without repent, I'm tightening the screw
Repeat Chorus
8. The Fun Palace
Welcome, I invite you off to the other world
You'll have to face this house of no escape
Confront the past, in this psychic house of horrors
I lead you up the path you'll take
Chorus:
Panic, your conscience lied
Trapped inside
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the fun palace
Panic, just try to scream
It's only a dream
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the palace
Tonight you'll be tried, I invoke the memories
The guilt to be driven from this unconscious mind
Young lives that you've denied, behold their faces
Innocence cut to pieces just look around
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Look at the fun and games that you've taken away
Confess!
Dreams of growing up have been destroyed
Because of you!
Farewell, I impel you back to your other world
You'll have to face your every sin
Take this a painful bounty, representing me
The keeper of the palace and the secrets held within
Repeat Chorus
Goodbye, from the fun palace
9. Road to Ruin
No control tonight, the lights are going dim
The floor begins to tilt, it's blurring to a spin
Just let me find my keys, "look down below"
Fresh air is all I need, then I'll go
Chorus:
Leading up the road to ruin
You're full of alcoholic speed
Leading up the road to ruin
No last chance, don't bother to plead
High, over the limit, got to take it slow
Concentrate, kill the radio
It's not the first time, it'll be the last
I've said that before, in the past
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Speed, I've got to make it home
Not too far to go, you're getting near
Just down the block, there's nothing left to fear
Carefree, on top of the world, feeling power
Impaired security at ninety miles an hour
Repeat Chorus
Out
10. Stonewall
Chorus:
Stonewall - go to bat
Unless you want to live like that
Stonewall - can't we see
We're our own worst enemy
A land said to have all, wealth in land, in man
Qualities soon to exhaust as man's greed poisons the land
Streams, once fresh, were centers of life for so many a creature
Beauty without a defense, polluted, never to replenish
Repeat Chorus
Collage, blue and green, seen as golden industrial sites
Smudge as toxic pollutants destroy her remaining rights
The power of corporations, spewing chemicals into the air
Fines are imposed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
It's time to listen, and see the signs
It's time to listen, and hear her cries
The one that gave us life is being burned to the raw
Reaping unprotected riches, human nature's self-destructing flaw
The power of corporations, spewing chemicals into the air
Fines are imposed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
Repeat Chorus
11. Never, Neverland
My room is full of toys and things
But filled with nothing new
Just me and Clare alone in this
Enchanted, placid room
It's Saturday and no more school
There hasn't been for years
She says we're here forever
'Til eternity
Our solitude has been disturbed
Clare hold on, don't flee
With open arms they call my name
"Oh won't you come with me?"
GET BACK, BACK!
JUST LEAVE US ALL ALONE
TAKE THAT AND THAT!
I'LL BREAK EVERY BONE
GET BACK, BACK!
JUST LEAVE US ALL ALONE
TAKE THAT AND THAT!
I'LL BREAK EVERY BONE
BLACKING OUT, POISONED
COLORS NOW DECAY
DRIFTING OFF TO NEVER, NEVERLAND
PLEASE DON'T TAKE ME AWAY
TO NEVER, NEVERLAND
NO, TO THE NEVERLAND!
Time has passed and now I see
What I've lived through
I've got no fears that match the hate
That came from you
It's Saturday I've things to do
I wish you all the best
Now I leave your placid room
Enjoy eternal rest
12. Imperiled Eyes
Centuries of war and waste
Have dealt a mortal blow
Mother Earth begins to rot
Humanity on death row
Life does slowly cease to be
Death seems so surreal
As Earth becomes a vacant lot
There's nothing left to heal
Chorus:
No color in the skies
No one left to blame
And we thought we were wise
As I fade, I feel revived
Shocked back into life
Opening imperiled eyes
Imperiled eyes
Cessation of physical life
Blackness rains from above
What right did power have
To annihilate the Earth I loved
Now a barren wasteland
The die is cast
A planet that once did teem with life
No evidence of a past
Repeat Chorus
Centuries of war and waste
Have dealt a mortal blow
Mother Earth is now no more
There's nothing left to heal
Repeat Chorus
13. I Am in Command [Live]
No defense, enemy attack
I'm fighting for my life
They'll slice you to ribbons, you lose all inhibitions
I laugh at the anti-christ
Power of position, deploying ammunition
I'm free from your holy beliefs
Your pockets are bled, to Christ you're wed
Gaze at the lost sheep
Chorus:
I am in command
I am in command
I stand in command
All the taking, eyes are waking
To your mass control
Power fades, drunken ways
Creating your own hellhole
Your God cast out, my armaments shout
Your faith is soon null and void
Where's God, paid the church of fraud
Now heaven's left you unemployed
Repeat Chorus
Moans of the meek, I'm strong, they're weak
I triumph as never before
Stand beside, be strong, take pride
Truth comes from the core
My war is fought by those I have taught
And those pledged to be free
I am here in alliance and stand in defiance
Of the church's almighty greed
Repeat Chorus
14. Set the World On Fire
I shall give the vision of what is meant to be
All you have to know is that I hold the master key
I know your weakness and I can see your pain
You scream deliverance and I will pave the way
Chorus 1:
I'll set the world on fire
It's your time to retire
Because sooner or later
You're going to meet your maker
I'll give you what I think is best and what I know is right
And those who follow me, I'll give you strength and might
You pledge allegiance and I'll prevent your fall
I am your leader and know I rule you all
Repeat Chorus 1
Your people are dying
Your people are crying out
That you must go down
Down, down, down, you must go down
Let's take them down
Now that it's over and all is said and done
You've turned the sky to black, no sign of the sun
Do you think the free world, is going to wish you well
No god can save you now, you're going straight to hell
Chorus 2:
We've set your world on fire
You are now retired
Because sooner or later
We have to meet our maker
Set the world on fire...
15. No Zone
I've been living here a billion years and more
You're ready to burn me up, so get set for war
My world's been set on fire, like a knife in the back
This is your final warning, prepare for attack
Chorus 1:
Can't you hear me crying
Get ready for the nozone
Get ready!
To bite the hand that feeds you,
it's like a time bomb ready to blow
You scorch and rape the land, look at Borneo
Too much, Too little, too late, chemicals take to the air
They're going to burn another hole in the sky,
you better say your prayers
Chorus 2:
Can't you hear me crying
I'm trying to send a message out to you
It's time to put out the fire
Get ready for the nozone
Dream and pray, the ozone mustn't burn away
You can try to run, you'll never hide, it's global suicide
Why aren't you listening to me, you better listen!
Repeat first verse, Chorus 2
16. Phoenix Rising
Day by day, watching you disappear
Wishing that you were still here beside me
On my own, swimming against the tide
There's nobody on my side but your memory
Chorus 1:
Then you'll rise right before my eyes
On wings that fill the sky
Like a phoenix rising
Like a phoenix rising
Wings on fire, tearing into the night
Screaming into the light of another day
Carry me out of the hurricane
Into the smoke and flame and we'll fly away
Chorus 2:
And we'll rise right before their eyes
On wings that fill the sky
Like a phoenix rising
Like a phoenix rising
Higher, higher, hear the thunder roar from above
Fire, fire, fire make me whole
Repeat Chorus 2
Wings on fire, tearing into the night
And we'll fly away
17. Brain Dance
I dropped out of the rat race
I just need a break from it all
And now I live in the country
With the birds and the trees and these bright white walls
Let me introduce you to some friends of mine
They're so polite and they dress so fine
Sometimes they take me for a walk in the sun
I get to play in the grass 'till I'm done
Chorus:
Brain dance
Brain dance
This is brain dance
watch my brain dance
I like to call myself an artist
My toe paintings are just the best
But when my feet get tired
I lose the crayon and get some rest
I've got a feeling there's a fish in the floor
I better squish it or he'll swim out the door
Sometimes they take me for a walk in the sun
I see my fish and I have to run
Repeat Chorus
Rubber shoes, a dirty sock,
Plastic toes and it's my pet rock
And this song is very silly and it makes no sense at all
because it's weird
Out of the pan and into the fire and back in the pan again
He jumped out of the frying pan, Into the fire and he's back again
He jumped, what? yes he's jumped and he's flying through the air
He jumped out of the frying pan, into the fire and he's back again
Let me introduce you to a friend of mine
She's been here for quite some time
Sometimes we go out for a walk in the sun
To walk with ALICE is always fun
Repeat Chorus
