1. 'Resurrection' (Resurrection 2000/2006)
I'm digging deep inside my soul
To bring myself out of this God-damned hole
I rid the demons from my heart
And found the truth was with me from the start
Holy angel lift me from this burning hell
Resurrection make me whole
Son of Judas bring the saints to my revenge
Resurrection bring me home
I walked alone into a Fight
No longer standing in satanic light
I tried to look too far ahead
And saw the road go to my past instead
Holy angel lift me from this burning hell
Resurrection make me whole
Son of Judas bring the saints to my revenge
Resurrection bring me home
I've faced the things I've said and done
There is no bastard left to overcome
The peace of mind I thought was lost
Was right in front of me on paths I've crossed
2. 'Made In Hell' (Resurrection 2000/2006)
From memories of 68 when the wizard shook the world
Metal came from foundries where the midlands sound unfurled
The bullring was a lonely place of concrete towers and steel
The coal mines and the industries were all I had to fell.
Something inside took hold of me, I really didn't know
But overtime it came to be, I knew which way to go
I drove around in search of what would make this all come true
From jazz and elecricity and good old southern blues
Hell, we're born to raise some hell
Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
In Henry's and in mother's where I'd go to bang my head
The feeling took a hold of me with every word I said
The voice was born and came alive from all I saw and heard
And now I knew my destiny, I had to spread the word.
I took the scream around the world
From London to L.A.
Unleashed in downtown Tokyo
Blew Godzilla away
Then on the sound and fury went from Sydney to Brazil
It sent the Russians crazy cause they never get their fill.
Of Hell, we're born to raise some hell
Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
Hell, we're born to raise some hell
Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
The stage and the lights and the amps are ablaze watch them burn
From all this insanity the Metal God's will return.
Shock waves attack relentlessly, intimidating force
So many bands surrounding you with evil from our source
It screams across the universe and slams you to the floor
This blitzkrieg psycho mania is coming on full roar
The world's a stage that's waiting for its bad ass to get kicked
And we're all on the road to hell and that's route 666
Hell, we're born to raise some hell
Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
Hell, we're born to raise some hell
Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
3. 'Screaming In The Dark' (Live Insurrection 2001/2006)
Inner world trance of the lifeless souls
Search and destroy of the damned
Turning the grave of the bleached out bones
Rise of the ghosts of bedlam
Lay on the blade of the cold guillotine
Feeling the steel on my spine
Taste of the blood as it falls from my mouth
I'm evil suspended in time
Scream
In the dark
Of my world
Inner dark
Why?
Does the torture remain and persist?
Die?
Can I never submit and resistance?
Down on my side
The nightmares colliding
I'm writhing and raging in flames
Bite on the bitch on the back of the beast
Burning desert plains
Scream
In the dark
Of my world
Inner dark
Violence rides as the human race dies
Death bringer stabs away life
Scream
In the dark
Of my world
Inner dark
Screaming
In the
Screaming
In the
Screaming
Inner darkness of my world
4. 'Golgotha' (Crucible 2002/2006)
Golgotha, rise up from your tomb
Devil's had a taste of holy water
Lost children need your guiding hand
Take them through the fire of the promised land
Now we've come together
We're all waiting for a sign
If it takes forever
We believe in the divine
Grand Canyon, source of all our dreams
Protected from a billion years of evil
Golden fire - thunder all around
Covenants will cover up you sinners
Now we've come together
We're all waiting for a sign
If it takes forever
We believe in the divine
Overcoming tyranny to desecrate the entity - satanical
Laying waste this sick disease
That crippled, maimed, feel to our knees - like Jericho
Pile of skulls crunched under foot
Torched remains are crying out - satanical
Rising up to purge and scourge the killing of our paradise - like Jericho
Salvation...
Now we've come together
We're all waiting for a sign
If it takes forever
We believe in the divine
5. 'Silent Screams' - 1999 Demo (1999/2006)
Look at me I'm chasing
After dreams left in the storm
What I am is all
That really matters now
That lies are gone -
That lies are gone,
All the lies are gone,
The lies are gone.
Tempting fate and losing
Friends along the way I loved
No regrets
I'm standing
With a needle in my heart -
Needle in my heart,
Needle in my heart,
Needle in my heart.
You'll never know
My life means everything
Still I scream because
There's nothing left to do until the end.
The world goes on
With all that I've become
And still I scream inside
For all the pain I've taken hasn't changed.
Nothing's changed at all
The truth is like a chain
Heaven's calling me
The place that I belong
Killing pain -
Killing pain.
Close my eyes a million faces
Get inside my mind.
Take a breath and fill my troubled
Soul with all mankind.
Killing pain -
Killing pain,
I'm killing pain,
Killing pain.
The world goes on
With all that I've become.
And still I scream inside
For all the pain I've taken hasn't changed...
The man in black
I'm coming back to spew my evil hate.
My crown of horns and bloody thorns
I'll dig up what you fear.
I am the shape that's in your room that watches over you.
I am the needle in your heart - your disillusioned God.
I am God, I am fate, I am all the sins you make, yeah - hate.
I am black, I am white, I am the blood upon the knife, yeah - hate.
Since time began I made a vow to drag you underground;
To steal your soul of purity and watch you waste away.
I am pure, I am right, I'm the God that makes you fight, yeah - hate.
I am life, I am death, I will steal your final breath, yeah - hate.
I prey upon your brocken dreams your weakness gives me strength.
I'm laughing at your silent screams I'll crush you with my hate.
You take it all
And face the fear that's here
Until the Silence Screams
it leaves you with no choice to carry on.
You'll never fall
When all is said and done
The only Scream is here
The journey never ends - it's just begun...
The lies that never learned
The needles in my heart
And things will never change
So everytime I scream I'm killing pain.
6. 'Crystal' (Crucible 2002/2006)
Smell your world when you come
I won't make a victim
I lie awake and I'm forsaken
From all the holes in my time
You saved up for this true lie
The devil bides her time in waiting
And still she comes
Crystallized in paranoia
Lost yourself inside her madness
Beast has glazed your being
With its torture
All the faults in your life
This suffering can't be mine
The curse will grow with what you prey for
And still she comes
She's calling
I'm falling
She makes me mine
Still calling
I'm crawling
She is benign
Smell your world when you came
Now I am a victim
I lie awake - I swim inside you
And still she comes...
7. 'Into The Pit' (New K5 - 1992/2006)
Bear witness to treason
Abeyance they cower
Compulsion of liars
Addicted to power
Into the pit
Into the pit
Conspiring for sation
Malfeasance on high
Obstruction of duty
Disorder will rise
Into the pit
Into the pit
Possession by force
Reprisal to task
Defenseless no longer
Expulsion by mass
Into the pit
Into the pit
8. 'Nailed To The Gun' (New K5 - 1992/2006)
Sig sauer. Victim of a system's non-control
Devour, striking terror into every soul
Communication breakdown onto self destruction
Schizophrenic people breeding hate
Pessimistic thinking from a failed connection
Survival comes when we annihilate
Nailed to the gun
Nailed to the gun
Paranoia, termination sickness zero's good
Blind power, executing humans in cold blood
Degenerating children with an opiated bullet
Poison flows from words out on the street
Trapped inside the home that has become the prison
Dissin' everybody that we meet
Nailed to the gun
Nailed to the gun
Locked and loaded, governmental lost to anarchy
Weapon goaded, magnum is gagging liberty
Cultural collision in an endless frenzy
Numbing minds with threats of violence
Hopeless to the dream of any decent future
Running on sheer fear and ignorance
Nailed to the gun
Nailed to the gun
9. 'Slow Down' (Resurrection 2000/2006)
Let it be
Still my anger
Bring me peace
From my temper
I'm trying every way I can
I'm doing wrong I understand
Let it be - slow down - watch the pressure fall
Bring me peace - slow down - I can't have it, I can't have it all.
Break the strain
Feed my hunger
Tell my mind
To be stonger
I've got to move and make it real
I've got to make myself a deal
Break this strain - slow down - give up what I crave
Tell my mind - slow down - watch what I can, watch what I can save.
Will I rise
Out of shadow
Staying calm
Felling hollow
I'm here to give me one more chance
That choice is resting in my hands, yeah...
Let it be - slow down - watch the pressure fall
Bring me peace - slow down - I can't have it, I can't have it all.
Break this strain - slow down - give up what I crave
Tell my mind - slow down - watch what I can, watch what I can save.
10. 'Forgotten Generation' (New - 2006)
I Can't Find What I Want Or Make Sense Of This Life
Too Much Hypocrisy In What Is Wrong And Right
I See It Everywhere But Still I Can't Relate
I Got To Much To Do Can't Sit Around And Wait
This World Won't Pass Me By
I'll Get All That I Need
I'm Given All I Have - And I Won't Concede
We're The Forgotten Generation
But We Know What We're Living For
We're The Forgotten Generation And
We Don't Need You Anymore
I'll Base My Life On What I Want And You Can't See
Don't Analyze The Labels That You Put On Me
I Open Up My Eyes But I'll Shut Out Your Voice
You Kept Me In The Dark And Never Gave Me Choice
My Being Different To You Still Makes Me A Man
And Soon I'm Gonna Let The World Know Who I Am
We're The Forgotten Generation
But We Know What We're Living For
We're The Forgotten Generation And
We Don't Need You Anymore
I'll Take The Things I Need That You Can't Understand
I'm Getting Stronger By The Choices I Demand
You're Living In The Past And That's Right Where You'll Stay
I'm In The Future And I'm Gonna Walk My Way
In Time You'll Realize The Dreams That We Achieved
And Give Us Back Respect For What We All Believed
We're The Forgotten Generation
But We Know What We're Living For
We're The Forgotten Generation And
We Don't Need You Anymore
11. 'Drop Out' (New - 2006)
I Like To Lose My Mind And Fly Off Into Space
Why Don't You Come With Me You'll Leave Without A Trace
I've Got The Magic That Will Open Up Your Head
Tune In, Turn-On, Drop Out - Just Like The Wizard Said
Chorus:
We're Leaving This Isolation
Don't Know When We'll Land
We're Leaving This Isolation
So Reach Out And Take My Hand
You'll Meet The Master Who Controls The Universe
He Lives Through Galaxies Beyond The Other Earth
He's Made Of Mirrored Glass Reflecting Every Soul
Fulfills Your Emptiness And Claims You For His Own
Chorus:
We're Leaving This Isolation
Don't Know When We'll Land
We're Leaving This Isolation
So Reach Out And Take My Hand
Defying Gravity As You Fall Back From Space
The Mirror Spins Your Mind Until You Have To Face
The World's Illusion Makes Up All Your Innocence
Now You Are Not The Same You've Been Experienced
Chorus:
We're Leaving This Isolation
Don't Know When We'll Land
We're Leaving This Isolation
So Reach Out And Take My Hand
12. 'Locked And Loaded' (Resurrection 2000/2006)
I've got no sympathy
For all you've done to me
I'll bring you to your knees
And give you what you please
I'm gonna get to you
Just like you got to me
And then I'll do to you
Just what you did to me
I'm gonna shoot it,
I'm gonna shoot it,
Cause I'm locked and loaded
I'm gonna shoot it,
I'm gonna shoot it,
Cause I'm locked and loaded
I aim to make you high
Won't stop until you cry
Just when you think I'm done
I've only just begun
I'm gonna get to you
Just like you got to me
And then I'll do to you
Just what you did to me
I'm gonna shoot it,
I'm gonna shoot it,
Cause I'm locked and loaded
I'm gonna shoot it,
I'm gonna shoot it,
Cause I'm locked and loaded
I'm gonna get to you
Just like you got to me
And then I'll do to you
Just what you did to me
I'm gonna shoot it,
I'm gonna shoot it,
Cause I'm locked and loaded
I'm gonna shoot it,
I'm gonna shoot it,
Cause I'm locked and loaded
13. 'War Of Words' (New K5 - 1992/2006)
Congress shall make no law
Respecting an establishment of religion
Or prohibiting the free exercise thereof
Or abridging the freedom of speech
Or of the press
Or of the right of the people peacefully to assemble
And to petition the government for a re-dress of grievances
Revoke this verbal mental muzzle
Protect the freedom of the mind
Speak out against the prejudicial
Extinguish ignorance by mouth
War of words
War of words
Disarm the bigotry with talk, talk
Incite the darkness from the veil
React to rhetoritic conflict
Object with anger at the law
War of words
War of words
War of words
War of words
Congress shall make no law
Respecting an establishment of religion
Or prohibiting the free exercise thereof
Or abridging the freedom of speech
Or of the press
Or of the right of the people peacefully to assemble
And to petition the government for a re-dress of grievances
Denied opinion comes from silence
Remove the pressure of the tongue
Assault by speech toward the discord
Attack the fundamental creed
War of words
War of words
War of words
War of words
A War of words
A War of words
A War of words
A war
14. 'Sun' (Crucible 2002/2006)
I, want to steer for the sun
For the day has begun
It's saying, it's saying
My, soul just wanted to freeze
To collapse and to seize
From the waiting
You, know it matters to me
That I have to rage free
I was longing
All that I feel is my soul
I will never let go
What I crave for
All of the things that you need
Are the things that you bleed
Here 'em calling?
And when the world becomes too much for me
That's when I know that I can't stay
I'm searching for my own serenity
I know I have to get away
I, want to steer for the sun
For the day has begun
Here it calling?
It's calling...
15. 'Trail Of Tears' (Crucible 2002/2006)
Such desperation
Left you in shame
This bitter harvest
Bearing all the blame
Man will never end your suffering
Stealing all your years
God is with you but won't save you
From your Trail of Tears
From this oblivion
Seek dignity
Just human cargo
Crying to be free
Man will never end your suffering
Stealing all your years
God is with you but won't save you
Change it
Gonna change it - change it
Greed of man has pushed you over
Feeding on the fears
Poverty will always prosper
On your Trail of Tears
Man will never end your suffering
Stealing all your years
God is with you but won't save you
From your Trail of Tears
