CRANIUM LYRICS
"Necropolis" (1994 Demo)
1. Resurrection
2. Free
3. Atheist
4. Flesh and Steel
5. In Your Face
6. Necropolis
1. Resurrection
2. Free
Insignificant, a blob of flesh on the face of the earth
Controlled, bought and sold they owned you
From your day of birth
Try to scream, no it's not a dream
Your voice gets lost in the crowd, trampled on
Now your life is gone
Seems this nation has done you proud
(Chorus)
Free Free, as free as they want me to be
Free Free, Free for all but you and me
Free Free, Just a number on a computer screen
Free Free, Is that the meaning of a free country?
You give them power, they deal you pain
They tell you to take your losses, they take the gains
The parasites tear up your life, until they're through
Rich or poor, they all want more
Than just a piece of you
(Chorus)
3. Atheist
Bow on your knees to the one that you fear
Disciple of a force you can't see or hear
Stumbling blindly, forgiveness the gift you seek
Searching for strength from the idol of the weak
Compelled by a force that issues war and pain
Advocates of the word of the Lord are twisted and insane
Their power manipulates, they'll punish you for your sins
Man of the dirty cloth will make you earn your wings
(Chorus)
Embrace your stone age concept, that there's a higher power
Pray that you will be saved, you repent in the final hour
You think you are immortal, but heaven doesn't exist
If only you could see your world through the eyes of an Atheist
Reality has lost you, fixation takes control
The God you worship devours your mind and soul
In a mindless trance you pray to be blessed
But you must face the end, when you are laid to rest
Don't believe in Jesus Christ, don't believe in Hell
I'm a heathen cuz I won't pay for what they sell
Is my mind as evil and vile as the soldiers of a holy war?
Evangelists are getting rich, feeding the poor
(Chorus x 2) Second bridge (Chorus)
4. Flesh and Steel
Give me my injection, I can't wait no more
Once I've got my hands on it, I want it more and more
Insatiable addiction I got to admit, it gives me a reason to exist
(Bridge) So much more than just a drug, its a part of me
No one there to die me down, snap the chains and I'm free
Time to up the dosage, I can take the load
Don't get too close to me cuz I'm about to explode
(Chorus)
Pierce my skin with the cold steel
Inject into my flesh
Pulse into my brain it surges overdose
But not to death
Don't bother getting in my way cuz its too late to stop
I'm right on the edge, I'm going over the top
The world it seems so far away, it seems so unreal
Now my soul is enslaved to the power of flesh and steel
(Repeat bridge)(Repeat Chorus x 2)
5. In Your Face
I love being repugnant, offensive is my middle name
You don't date step out of line, that's my favorite game
Right wing conservative, but kiss the ones I love to hate
Nothing gives me greater satisfaction than being a reprobate
(Chorus)
In your face, that's my place
In your face, is what I embrace
In your face, I've fallen from grace
In your face, don't fuck with the ace
Up there on your pedestal, I'll bring you down a notch or two
Get your head out of the clouds, cuz I can see right through you
I don't need no camouflage, what you see is what you get
I hope that repulses you, cuz I ain't finished yet
(Repeat chorus)
Booze and drugs and volume, the things that you despise
There's no better feeling, than being a devil in your eyes
If I have a purpose, it's to be a thorn in your sides
Don't you turn your back too soon, cuz I won't fade away and die
(Repeat chorus)
6. Necropolis
