1. The Beast

Everyone starts with a clean slate
We're all the same when we're born:
Hopeless...at the mercy of others...
Waiting to take on final form

Some have it good, so good
It's paradise right from the start
Some live at the fucking bottom
And stay there forever because that's who they are!

Choice: it's the one thing
That separates man from the beast
Will: the will to use it
That's what separates you and me!

I'll bet you can guess how my life's been
Maybe from the tone of these words?!
You can be sure it's been shit
And you can be sure that I'm disturbed!

It's been a long time coming
But I'll finally take my own advice
And crawl out from underneath this pile
Then take you by the throat and take back my life!

Today is the day I take my final form
Today is the day I am reborn
When man and beast become one
Not even death can overcome!




2. Total Violence

Ancient scales covered in rust
On which we balance life
Frozen firmly into severe tilt
Never choosing "right"

We know how they favor the other side
Always heavier, it is the way!
Biased by centuries of boiling hate
They've never led man astray!

Add more bodies for posterity
And I'll be sure to show you that:

There's one sure way
To bring them to their knees:
Spread wasteland
As far as the eye can see
Total Violence (Total Violence)!
Total Violence is what I need
Squeeze the Earth
Until it fucking bleeds!

How long can we go without love and peace?
We may be heading towards the end!
Fire marks where I've been
My winding path is painted red

So what is to be? There's no time to decide
To fight or turn your back
I know the answer before I begin
So ready the all-out attack!

Add my weight for posterity
And I'll be sure to show you that:

There's one sure way
To bring them to their knees:
Spread wasteland
As far as the eye can see
Total Violence (Total Violence)!
Total Violence is what I need
Squeeze the Earth
Until it fucking bleeds!




3. Better Off Dead

Bury me under mountains of stone
Throw me in face-first
Dig a deep grave then fill it in
With my body beneath the dirt

Death, are you there?!
Hey! Swing the scythe!

I'm waiting for you
To take my life!

To me it's a gift to be alone
To enjoy what's left of my mind
Before I suffocate among the worms
It's all I've wanted...I could cry!

But the ground would soak up my happy tears
So I won't waste precious time
Instead I'll dwell on why I've prayed for the end
Victim of deceit and lies

Victim of wicked,
Twisted design!

A man with no hope
And a one-track-mind!

Better off Dead, better than alive
Fools will never learn
I'll get my answers when I'm through...
Beyond the point of no return!

Everyone has a tolerance
For how much shit they can take
I'm done taking yours, so I'll take you with me
I was your last mistake!

Better Off Dead!




4. Grindstone

The end is near, not too much longer now
And we'll be nothing more than a memory
We gave it a good shot, we gave it our all
But now the circle is finally complete

Destined for greatness, all is possible
Just keep your nose to the grindstone
No limits! All is overcome
With strength in numbers! One man can't do it alone!

We fight as one!
On into the night
With steins held high, hear the violent roar
Might makes fucking right

This is our only chance
And we can choose to continue on
All it takes is energy and fire
You know deep down I can't be wrong

So now comes the time:
The crossroads and all that shit
A trite phrase or two won't help very much
Just know that we made it this far and I'll be damned if I quit!

Give your blood to the grindstone
Strength in numbers! One man can't do it alone...




5. Twice The Power

I dream way too big for this world
Way too big for my fellow man
Am I good enough to guide the future?
I'm starting to think that I can

My only wish is to turn back time
I'd love to have a few more years
And avoid those who weren't brave enough
To venture beyond their fears

Send someone just like me
So we can carry on
We'll have twice the power and double the strength
When the dead weight is gone!

Not so far from here the road splits in two
It's where the common hordes head west
Thousands of lumbering creatures march
To their predictable deaths

If only they knew their real purpose in life!
...well, it's too late for them now
They fade away like they were never here
Forgotten in their final hours!




6. Full Bore




7. Path Of Revenge




8. Flesh To Steel




9. Bare Fist




10. Book Of Vengeance




11. Wild And Free
