1. Walk (Cervical Edit)
Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you...
You want in to get under my skin And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you What do I do?
(Pre) Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life Known from the dawn of time
(Chorus) Respect, walk
Run your mouth when I'm not around It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word
(Pre) (Chorus) Are you talking to me? No way punk
2. Fucking Hostile (Biomechanical Mix)
Almost every day I see the same face
On broken picture tube It fits the attitude
If you could see yourself You put you on a shelf
Your verbal masturbate Promise to nauseate
Today I'll play the part of non-parent
Not make a hundred rules For you to know about yourself
Not lie and make you believe What's evil
is making love and making friends and meeting God you're own way
The right way
(Chorus) To see To bleed Cannot be taught
In turn You're making us Fucking hostile
We stand alone
The truth in right and wrong
The boundaries of the law
You seem to miss the point Arresting for a joint?
You seem to wonder why Hundreds of people die
You're writing tickets man My mom got jumped -- they ran!
Now I'll play a public servant To serve and protect
By the law and the state
I'd bust the punks That rape steal and murder
And leave you be If you crossed me
I'd shake your hand like a man Not a god
(Chorus)
Come meet your maker, boy Some things you can't enjoy
Because of heaven/hell A fucking wives' tale
They put it in your head Then put you in your bed
He's watching say your prayers Cause God is everywhere
Now I'll play a man learning priesthood
Who's about to take the ultimate test in life
I'd question things because I am human
And call NO ONE my father who's no closer that a stranger
I won't listen
(Chorus)
3. By Demons Be Driven (Biomechanical Mix)
Serving the faith Abduction the oath
It lie in wait for the offering
Religion is old
For drawing the young
Purity withers and dies
Never return to the ones that provided
Children draining parents of will
I hold out my hand to bloodless child
I'm taken by the one I was saving
From death
(Chorus) By demons be driven Beckon the call
With decline in mind
End not far
We're left hanging alone here
He pulls us from nails
Shatters our bones
Leaving us crippled and strewn
Boiling my corpse in the blood of his children
Praying for his god to prevail
Burying us with loved ones
To sleep with shelled children
....of the sixth dimension
(Chorus)
4. Walk (Cervical Dub Extended)
Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you...
You want in to get under my skin And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you What do I do?
(Pre) Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life Known from the dawn of time
(Chorus) Respect, walk
Run your mouth when I'm not around It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word
(Pre) (Chorus) Are you talking to me? No way punk
5. Cowboys From Hell (live)
Under the lights where we stand tall
Nobody touches us at all
Showdown, shootout, spread fear within, without
We're gonna take what's ours to have
Spread the word throughout the land
They say the bad guys wear black
We're tagged and can't turn back
You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin over this town
Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell
Pillage the village, trash the scene
But better not take it out on me
'Cause a ghost town is found
Where your city used to be
So out of the darkness and into the light
Sparks fly everywhere in sight
From my double barrel, 12 gauge,
Can't lock me in your cage
You see us comin'
And you all together run for cover
We're takin over this town
Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell
6. Heresy (live)
Here we are
In a world of corruption
Human nature is
Of violent Breed
Who cares if there;s no tomorrow
When I die for my future's
Laid out for me
Can't you see?
Rise above the lies
Morals on a backwards globe
A sin to you
For me it's hope.
It's my life and provision
Black or white
Some pay to pray
You question why they
Act this way
It's their fucking decision
No more judgement day
Only tranquility
Peace signs, protest lines
Mean nothing to me
Honesty born in me
Heresy
I know what's right or wrong
And my belief is stronger
Than your advice
People, they go to war
Because religion gives them
Reason to fight
Sacrifice, die for pride
A group that caters
No one's fees
Or synthetic deities
Is where I belong
My stand is the human race
Without a label or a face
So they can lick my sack
No more judgement day
Only tranquility
Peace signs, protest lines
Mean nothing to me
Honesty born in me
Heresy
