1. Salem Girls
Screams of children can be heard, horrified
The evil one possessed you all
Watch them cry
A group of six began to terrorize the fucking town
Young females who look so soft
Yet swung the hatchet down
Salem girls – they have your soul
Salem girls –they have control
They went to court to tell their tales
of demons flying free
Above the heads of townspeople
It’s plain for all to see
Mens and women slain for this by
burning at the stake
Witches they were labeled as, the choice
was theirs to make
Salem girls – they have your soul
Salem girls –they have control
Salem girls –they’ll pass you by
Salem girls –they’ll watch you die
The blasphemy had ended now
Judgement day had past
The ergot had destroyed their lives
The battlefield was vast
Looking back on this, mortified
Were the young girls remedied
Or are you next to die???
Salem girls – they have your soul
Salem girls –they have control
Salem girls –they’ll pass you by
Salem girls –they’ll watch you die
2. Beat a Dead Horse
Stop putting down all the work
That weve done, it shouldn’t matter
to you
That we’ve won
All the hearts and sould of the children
You trust
If satan was mute,whose to say he’d use us
Messengers to convey every thought,
Every word on that record he bought
Tell me that’s what you thought?
Beat a dead horse – your’re keeping it going
Beat a dead horse – we’re so mysfied
Beat a dead horse – your fear that is showing
Beat a dead horse – just want another ride
Now you say that hes dead on the floor
Youre gonna tell me
He never had troubles before he heard such misguiding
Words
And all the death that goes along with us
Suicides every verse or phrase,you’ve said it before
We’ve got such evil ways,don’t care who we dismay
Beat a dead horse – your’re keeping it going
Beat a dead horse – we’re so mysfied
Beat a dead horse – your fear that is showing
Beat a dead horse – just want another ride
Go,go,go say it again, your never ending story
Liars, sparking up fires, doing their best to get it off the shelves
Tears , fears , spears throw them at us, we’re the closest target blame
Goes right to fame, it’s much easier than dealing with it yourself
Horse-beat a dead horse
Horse-beat a dead horse
3. The Widower
You’ve been down before, you’ll be down again
No one knows why ,who can say when?
Now you can feel better ,cause you’re a free man
Make the best of precious time while you still can
Life moves faster than the eye can see
Rolling on forever towards eternity
Treat every day as if it
were your last so as you grow older you
don’t regret your past
go to pick it up-readjust
now youre on your own,plenty satisfied
forgot about those break up days
when you were sad and cried
treated her so nice,she fucked with your head
now its time to shop around and find someone else instead
tossed a couple down, feeling alright
hoping for some justice by the end of the night
who do I see through the crowded scene?
Its my ex-bitty starting right at me
The widower haunts you forever
She only wants her sweet revenge
Its about time you put her in her place,never cause you grief again
Prepare yourself,gather your thoughts, time blew by all for naught
Exposed of what brought you down
Its tough at first being alone
Don’t fret now,don’t flee from home
Better times are coming round
3 years gone by and life has changed
Piked things up and rearranged
Only the memories are what you save
Times like those are what you lack
If could only get her back
The widower mocks you to your grave
Pick it up-readjusted
4. The Matador's Nightmare
Best of the best, a hero to all and many a bull he did slay
But he entered the ring with a felling as if he shouldn’t
Have risen today
Armed with a sword and a red velvet cape and the roar
Of the crowd all around
As the beast kicked up dirt and started to run, the matador
Heard not a sound
His face-turned white ,did he forget how to fight?
At last-he knew,his nightmares were all coming true
He jumped from the path of this demon with horns, but only to his avail
For the beast put one horn, through the matadors thigh and
the poor man started to wail
He could not belive what he heard, the crowd they all cheered as he bled
As he slowly bent down to pick up
his sword, he knew they wanted him dead
His leg-the pain the bull
Desecrating his name
At last-he knew his nightmares were all coming true
Terror in Spain, from a life of good fortune to a death full of pain
Terror in Spain the matador ,hes going insane
The bull charged again with a furious pace and the matador raised his sword
He slashed through the neck of this monstrous beast
And laughed as the blood quickly poured
He conquered the bull but this wasn’t enough, he dropped to his knees
at its side
he cut out the heart but as he looked up saw a second bull in full stride
his hands were wet, with animals blood and his sweat
At last-he knew his nightmares were all coming true
Terror in Spain,from a life of good fortune to a death full of pain
Terror in Spain,the matadors nightmare,hes going insane
His face –turned white ,he sees
That he can’t win this fight
At last-he knew his nightmares were all coming true
Terror in Spain,from a life of good fortune to a death full of fucking pain
Terror-nightmares hes going insane
5. Full Moon
Cant you see him stalking in the night,the moon is full the tide is right
Lunacy escapes his mind,hes detrimental to his kind
His former residence was hell,his vengeance now will surely swell
Cause as the day turned into night, there was no darkness,
Only light
Lunatic – the moon controls his life
Psychotic – hes talking out the knife
Apogee – the feelings were less then
Forces – beyond our control
When mothers nature talking do
What youre told
Helpless-to whats going down
The only answer – full moon
He sees his victim in the light
The harvest can be reaped tonight
Her footsteps down the beaten
Path will soon be silenced with his wrath
And as he closes on his prey the young
fair maiden now must pay
Cause as she walks unknowingly
He grasps his knife in ecstacy
Lunatic – the moon controls his life
Psychotic – hes raising up the knife
Apogee – the feelings were less then
Forces – beyond our control
When mothers nature talking do
What youre told
Helpless-to whats going down
The only answer – full moon
I never seem to question why I do
These morbid things
Questions are forbidden , for the
Happiness it brings to me
I kill , I kill , I kill for thrills
Well that’s the way it goes
I’ll slash you ,bring you , kill you
Now , down with me you’ll go
He graps the maiden in the night
Hoping she will run or fight
6. Escape
You inhale the smoke, its burning you eyes
The ungodly nightmare youre hoping
But to your surprise,youre feeling the heat
The flames roar below
The fire that burns in the lobby
Will catch you! Where can you go?
Down – to the streets- down
Frantically search ,for means of escape
The window that looks so inviting
Is calling,should you partake?
The seconds now tick,the flames growing near
You run to the window and scream
But below theres no one to hear
Down – to the streets- down
Down and your maker you’ll meet
Escape – or feel the fire
Escape – its calling to you
Escape – escape – burning
Desire –jump!
The burning of flesh, the panicing cries
The glass doorway looks less appeling
You know no answer is wise
You gather your thought and straddle the sill
One hundred thirty feet from the ground
You know you will go
Down – to the streets- down
Down and your maker you’ll meet
Escape – or feel the fire
Escape – its calling to you
Escape – escape – burning
Desire –jump!
Jump from the perch, and soar through the air
You’ll smash on the pavment
Below, do you even care?
Freedom at last ,you no longer frown
You tumble and laugh,escape is complete
You know you will go down
Down – to the streets- down
Down and your maker you’ll meet
Escape – or feel the fire
Escape – its calling to you
Escape – escape – burning
Desire –jump!
7. Merry Ship
Exiled from our homeland
Strangers to ourselves
Can you help us father?
We’ve no place to dwell
Unruthlessy punished ,mindless overkill
Help us serve our purpose ,our destiny fulfill
You come with me
See you’ll be free
Runway runway life can be good
But you must obey
Searching for a leader, one who’ll
Serve us right, father ,you come
to us to end our losing fight
Point in one direction , tell us what to do
From now until forever,our lives
Are lived for you
You come with me
See you’ll be free
Runway runway life can be good
But you must obey
8. Different Breed
He sees himself apart from you and i
Is he from down below,or is he from the sky
They’ve got their eyes on you
Patrolling what you do
They only want to govern your soul
Now your time has come to stand,
Fight or run
No,you can’t chosse you’ll lose
Now the real test begins to see if good or evil wins
You can’t change the hands of fate
You’re locked in tight ,you see your might
You can escape what can’t be real
Now your time has come to stand
Or fight or run
No, you can’t choose ,you fucking loser
Breed –different breed
Breed – different breed
His eyes burn through you ,it’s time to go
On your little red vacation down below
You enter a new state of mind ,no help
from a prayer
Little do you know,you’ll entered the demons liar
No,you can’t chosse you’ll lose
Breed –different breed
Breed – different breed
9. Dead On
Pride and power,born to win
Reach down low, slide it in
Victorious since birth ,eyes of many
One man’s obsession , armed and ready
I can change your life
I’m not your lover, your not my wife
Unlike the rest , I never tire
I’ll set the world, the world afire
Many have cum, cum before me
I care not, can’t you see
Fall to your knees
Almost human, I always please dead on
From start to finish I come out ahead
I’m the one, the one you dread
So leave it to me, youre in good hands
Dead’s on the band, the band of bands
Death before your eyes
Stay away, your choice is wise
Dead on
I can change your life
I’m not your lover, youre not my wife
Dead on
