1. Black Death
Black death on the water
Black death in the air
Black death on the insects
Who nest in my hair
Black death all around us
Black death coming fast
Black death is the reason
That your kind won't last
Ring around the rosie
Pocket full of posie
Ashes, Ashes
We all fall down
Black death all around us
Black death at my feet
Black death is the reason
It's unsafe to eat
Don't you come around here
If your want to last
If you don't like it
We'll kick your bloody ass
Around every corner
In every town
The feeling of death
It won't get me down
I'll fight to the finish
I'll fight till I die
Black death is the reason
You all shall die
2. Prepare for Battle
Demons arise
Your dragon's fire
is dying
A blood red wind is crying
Demon armies
Fill the sky
Kings and Princes
In you power
Make laws to keep us chained
Deaf and dumb
Now look, now listen
Your beasts have gone insane
War is coming
Killing thunder
With lasers and with steel
The whip you hold
Has lost it's bite
Revenge shall turn the wheel
Bastards arise
We bring you death
Touch our lightning
Take our metal
Take our dreams
Into a sleep
Of endless screams
3. The Chemist
There's more to the story
We hope that you listen
The Chemist will
soon take control
The Chemist sent Preachers
Prophets, and Teachers
To tell tales of the Darkness
before the new dawn
So many won't listen
Won't look to the sky
The curtain is falling
around you
So many must die
That's why I cry
4. Hell's Whip
Sound and Fury
Smoke and flames
How can all this be
Studs and leather
Hell's whip flashing
Coming down on me
I've stayed one step
ahead of time
But now the cracks of doom
Snakes across my back
like lightning
Burning bright
My soul is dying
Watch out for the thunder
Throw the lights upon me
Like diamonds on the sky
Music is my magic
And magic is my high
But still they keep on striking
Those flaming whips of steel
Won't you tell me
What you want from me?
I'm running
I'm screaming
I'm fling like a fallen
angel for you
Can't you feel my thunder
And there's no rest
for the wicked
No sleep for the metal demon
No rest for the wicked
'Till the Black Knight comes
5. Satan's Prophets
It starts with the evil
In all of the good
Doing good things
That you know that you should
Never have to worry
About ever being free
Satan cast his spell
On you and me
Lightness is his darkness
Darkness is his magic
If you don't listen
You'll wind up
something tragic
Starts with the evil
In all of the good
Doing good things that
You know that you should
Satan's prophets
Satan casts his spell on you
Satan's prophets
Satan casts his spell
You played with your magic
But you dropped out of school
Learning bad things
Never did nothing for you
You idle hands were
The Dark Lord black tools
Now the Reaper will harvest
And leave nothing for you
You could have walked
the white line
The straight and narrow road
Pledged glory to Jesus
Sanctified your soul
But no you took a gamble
For that pot of gold
You came up a winner but
You still lost your soul
6. Fly High
Looking for answers
Searching to find
Is it more than a nightmare
Or is it my mind
What I've seen in my dreaming
I know we must flee
A black cloud from
a dark world
Has cast it's spell on me
Fly
Away from here
I want to fly high
Away from here
Ready for action
Ready to roll
The plague of the Dark Lord
Has taken control
Let's find a rainbow
And climb on it's light
Soon we shall battle
With the armies of the night
Search for answers
Search to find
More than a nightmare
In my mind
What I've seen
I know we must flee
A dark cloud
Hangs over me
End of a nightmare
I rise to find
I am not sleeping at all
And there's no place to hide
7. Prophets Scream
In your eyes you've clearly seen
A shadow of what
time may bring
The end is near
the prophet screamed
So you no longer
chase that dream
All our days the end's been told
A bomb won't let
our rage grow old
Hope is gone our future sold
That feeling has the fatal hold
If the dream is sacrificed
I fear the end will be the price
Of the prophet's scream
8. Fall of the Curtain
The fall of the curtain
Brings a tear to my eye
The fall of the curtain
A reason to cry
Release your prisoners
Release them all
Tear down your curtain
Tear down your wall
The wall of death surrounds you
The answer can be found
You will find
your new beginnings
From dreams you left behind
A new day is dawning
Leave yesterday behind
Tear down the curtain
Unleash your mind
You have the knowledge
Realize you hold the key
You have the power
To set your people free
Soon the wall will shatter
A better life for all
Free to live your dreams
In a world with no more walls
