1. Lobotomized
Living in a world gone mad
Polluted minds and marching feet
Lust for power - hearts of hatred
Breeding where the cities bleed
I don’t wanna be like you
Lobotomized – lobotomized
I don’t wanna be like you
Lobotomized – lobotomized
I got a mind of my own
Everything is turning black
And everybody’s growing cold
Stay in line – you’re disconnected
Always doing what you’re told
I don’t wanna be like you
Lobotomized – lobotomized
I don’t wanna be like you
Lobotomized – lobotomized
I got a mind of my own
No! – I don’t wanna go
I don’t want to live like you
No! – I don’t wanna go
I don’t wan to die like you
Lobotomized
Solos: Morten/Michael
The media controls the truth
Reality is just a show
Love comes cheap in wierd disguises
Hard to tell which way to go
I don’t wanna be like you
Lobotomized – lobotomized
I don’t wanna be like you
Lobotomized – lobotomized
I got a mind of my own
No! – I don’t wanna go
I don’t want to live like you
No! – I don’t wanna go
I don’t want to die like you
Lobotomized..
2. House Of Fear
In the night a bad moon rises
As you’re lying there on your own in your bed
Something’s moving in the darkness
Is someone sneaking by your door
Eerie faces in the shadows
Nightly creatures feeding
On your anguish and dread
Screams of terror break the silence
Your house of fear won’t let you go
Oh no!
Shadow in the night
Is it the one-eyed demon daughter
Could be a killer on the loose
The blood starts to freeze in your veins
Children of the night
They come to take you to the slaughter
There ain’t no need for you to fight
You’re lost when you’re on your own
You’re lost on your own
There’s nothing you can do
There’s nowhere to run
There’s nowhere to hide
As the beast of the night’s coming closer
Taking you to the place
Where the black roses grow
There’s nowhere to run
There’s nowhere to hide
As you stand with your back to the wall
You’re falling down where the pain never dies
Solo: Michael
Harmony: Morten

3. Furious
Moral prohibitions – inhibitions – impotence
I’m choking in the values of a world that don’t make any sense
Anger and frustration boiling up inside me
Fury seems to cloud my mind, I’m fed up with hypocrisy
I’m furious – I’ll fight your order
I’m furious – you’re ripe for the slaughter
Feel my rage
Prejudice – fanaticism - don’t come to my door
I’m at war with ignorance – I just can’t take it anymore
I’m furious – I’ll fight your order
I’m furious – you’re ripe for the slaughter
Feel my rage
Solos: Morten/Michael
Life is hardly ever found
Buried safely in the ground
Haunted by the living dead
A bomb is ticking in my head
I look into the mirror, beast is sneering back at me
I just can’t restrain myself, so rest in pain and misery
I’m furious – I’ll fight your order
I’m furious – you’re ripe for the slaughter
I’m furious – I’ll fight your order
I’m furious – you’re ripe for the slaughter
Feel my rage
Rage!
4. Time Bomb
Tick of a time bomb inside my head
Sometimes I wish I was dead
Won’t somebody show me the way
I can’t find a reason for staying
Ever too often I wandered alone
It seems like my dreams are all blown
I’m searching for peace in my mind
I’m scared of what I might find there
Solo: Michael
All of a sudden I’m on my own
They’re gone, all the friends I have known
Alone I must find a way out
I guess that’s what life’s all about
‘Cause time is moving fast
The hour’s getting late
It seems so hard
To keep up the faith - yeah
When changes come too fast
Keep your feet on the ground
Then maybe things will turn around
Maybe things will turn around
Maybe things will turn around

5. All Mine
In your dreams you’ll hear me call
I’m the voice in your head
Don’t listen to anyone instead
All the time I’ll be with you
Though I’m not even there
And if you’re nice I will take care of you
You were born to heal my soul
I needed someone who loved
You came to me like a gift from above
‘Cause I mean everything for you
I’ve put my fear into you
I’ll never stop controlling you, that’s true
I am the one who loves you
I am the one who cares
I’m here to give you pleasure
I’m gonna kill your pain
Yes, one way or another
I’ll be there in your mind
And when you scream for pleasure
I’m gonna know you’re mine – all mine
Solo: Morten
I am the one who loves you
I am the one who cares
I’m here to give you pleasure
I’m gonna kill your pain
Yes, one way or another
I’ll be there in your mind
And when you scream for pleasure
I’m gonna know you’re mine – all mine
I was looking for soemone like you
And when I met you I made an oath
That I would never let you out of my sight
Or else I will cut your throat
You were caught in this spider’s web
And once you’re caught you’ll never break free
I’m the one who tells you to fall
When I say fall – you fall
I’m the one who tells you to rise
When I say rise – you rise
I’m the one who comforts you and whispers in your ear
“I love you”
When you try to cut me off
You know it makes me so mad
‘Cause you are here to make me glad
I don’t want you to be yourself
I will never let go
That’s why I’ve made an anxious child of you
I am the one who loves you
I am the one who cares
I’m here to give you pleasure
I’m gonna kill your pain
Yes, one way or another
I’ll be there in your mind
And when you scream for pleasure
I’m gonna know you’re mine – all mine
All mine
Solo: Michael
6. Troublemakers Benefit
Standing tall on your own little mountain
Looking down at me
You create this state of insanity
Just to get – the Troublemaker’s Benefit
All your lies and your rumours work like poison
Leaving trails of tears
A no man’s land of hate and pettiness
Is what you get – the Troublemaker’s Benefit
Got no one you can turn to
And the pain just won’t go
So afraid you won’t see
Life’s reality
Feeling small on your own lonely mountain
There’s a long way down
All your friends have turned their backs on you
As you recieve – the Troublemaker’s Benefit
Got no one you can turn to
And the pain just won’t go
So afraid you won’t see
Life’s reality
Solo: Michael
Tears in your eyes
Do your regret all your lies
You’re lost in a nightmare
‘Cause nobody cares – for you
Crack of shield – it’s plain to see
You’re nothing of what you claimed to be
Tears in your eyes
Now time has come
Pay for your lies!
Falling down from your own lonely mountain
Will you never learn
Trapped inside this state of insanity
Now you got – the Troublemaker’s Benefit
Got no one you can turn to
And the pain just weon’t go
So afraid you won’t see
Life’s reality
Solo: Morten
7. Devil Or God
The sun goes down
Exploding in a last goodbye
It’s time to move along
A shadow sneaking through the night
I stop as I see her in the city lights
I step out of the dark
She stands alone – so innocent and beautiful
She shows no fear at all
I feel the rhythm of her heart
Cheeks blush, her lips part as I draw her near
In darkness we unite
Devil or God
You never can tell
Hungry for blood
Is this Heaven or Hell
A car goes by – and a flash in the lights expose
The nature of my kind, as I bite she looks in wonder
Devil or God
You never can tell
Hungry for blood
Is this Heaven or Hell
Solo: Morten/Michael/Morten/Michael
Harmony: Michael & Morten
Her skin is soft – and in her eyes I see a rose
A black and bloody rose – her heart beats louder and louder
Harmony: Michael
She needed love – she found it when she died
Her lonely days are gone, forever she’s mine
Devil or God
You never can tell
Hungry for blood
Is this Heaven or Hell
Devil or God
You never can tell
Hungry for blood
Is this Heaven or Hell
Chorus harmony: Morten
8. Persistance Of Desire
Intro lead: Michael
Welcome to the future - the digital dimension
Chips are taking over – technology invasion
Electrical eyes – securing control
Utopia won – but where is the soul
Loneliness increasing – everyone’s a stranger
Chained to time and hour – the TV’s flashing danger
Engines of fear – it’s all in your head
Fighting in vain - takeover of the dead
A time to live – a time to die
You can’t put out the fire
From darkness come the beast alive
Persistence of desire
Panic strikes at midnight, rolling through my veins
A devastation pleasure of unpredicted pain
From the Abyss – a cry of despair
Reviving the flesh – there’s blood in the air
Solo: Morten
Flesh and blood of woman – eyes of burning hunger
Insatiable desire – can’t restrain no longer
From the Abyss – a cry of despair
Reviving the flesh – there’s blood in the air
A time to live – a time to die
You can’t put out the fire
From darkness come the beast alive
Persistence of desire
Solo: Michael
A time to live – a time to die
You can’t put out the fire
From darkness come the beast alive
Persistence of desire
Outro harmony: Michael
9. Time To Say Goodbye
I’m standing at a cross-road
Knowing the time is near
The echoes of a lifetime
Still ring in my ear
I should have seen it coming
But I was too blind to see
Now I’m picking up the pieces
It’s all there is left for me
There is a time for staying
And there is a time to go
You ask me me for a reason
But I just don’t know
This is a world of changes
And there are no guarantees
What can I do but follow
If that is my destiny
It hurts to leave
But it’s worse to stay
When the fire is gone
The old must die for the new to rise
Don’t waste your time on if’s and why’s
Time to say goodbye
Harmony: Morten
Solo: Morten
I’m reaching out in darkness
To grab hold of something new
There is no one to tell me
What I should do
I watch the bridges burning
As you fade away in time
Now it’s too late for crying
I’m leaving the past behind
There is a time for staying
And there is a time to go
You ask me me for a reason
But I just don’t know
This is a world of changes
And there are no guarantees
What can I do but follow
If that is my destiny
It hurts to leave
But it’s worse to stay
When the fire is gone
The old must die for the new to rise
Don’t waste your time on if’s and why’s
Time to say goodbye
10. The River's Edge
Feel the heat – check the action
The city groans – blow your mind away
Hungry hearts – no satisfaction
On the run – every night and day
Selling out – but who is buying
Broken dreams diving down the drain
Paper walls – someone is dying
Tears of blood falling down like rain
Die young – stay pretty
That’s what we all say
Living for today
On the river’s edge
Die young – stay pretty
That’s what we all say
Living for today
On the river’s edge
Die young
Solo: Morten
Hope is dead – home an illusion
One more night living on the run
Victimized by evolution
Who survives – could you be the one
Die young – stay pretty
That’s what we all say
Living for today
On the river’s edge
Die young – stay pretty
That’s what we all say
Living for today
On the river’s edge
Die young
Die young – stay pretty
That’s what we all say
Living for today
On the river’s edge
Die young – stay pretty
That’s what we all say
Living for today
On the river’s edge
Die young
Die young
