1. Serpent
Featuring Eldon Fisher from Jerkstore on guitar
Cold sweat grips me
I can not see
The truth, The lies
or in between
My fear grabs hold
Nightmares unfold
Horrors untold
Mine to behold
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Terror it comes
From within my mind
Demons
Scream insideSerpent
Of my mind
Breakdown from fear
A dream or real
Cannot reveal
The solution
Four walls lock me
In padded agony
But they don't see
The horror's in me
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
Terror it comes
From within my mind
Demons
Scream inside
Serpent
Of my mind
(solo Eldon Fisher)
2. No Way
Uh-uh
Uh-uh
Uh-uh
No Way!
You say that you are sorry
For things that you've done to me
As if I'd be stupid
Enough to accept your appology
Sincere as you can be
How can you keep a straight face
While you're lying to me
I'm wise to your chase
Uh-uh
Uh-uh
Uh-uh
No Way!
You beg me for forgiveness
Searching for my ignorance
But I've seen past the blindness
Of the bullshit that you possess
I can see clearly now
To believe you I can't see how
I did it in the first place
You insult me with your excuses
Uh-uh
Uh-uh
Uh-uh
No Way!
3. World Gone to Hell
Guns in our schools
Drugs in our streets
Babies dying hungry
No shoes on their feet
We live in a world gone to hell
Where everyone's soul is for sale
We live in a world gone to hell
'Cause we only care about ourselves
Newborns in dumpsters
Children beat to death
By parents who should love them
Instead they neglect
We live in a world gone to hell
Where everyone's soul is for sale
We live in a world gone to hell
'Cause we only care about ourselves
4. Sledge
I see what we have done
A world that has grown numb
Machines to which we've become
Too dependent
Money our driving force
On a self-destruct course
For us there's no remorse
No defense
It hits me like a sledge
A world staring at it's end
No God wants to hear our repents
We lie in our own burning beds
Scream now to a deaf ear
Too late the end is near
You pray only out of fear
For forgiveness
The life you hold so dear
One flash it disappears
Unfold the final act
Armageddon
It hits me like a sledge
A world staring at it's end
No God wants to hear our repents
We lie in our own burning beds
5. Serial Killer
I'm seeing red
Inside my head
Out of control
Psycho again
Innocence
Polluted by the world
Inside I snap
My wrath is unfurled
Anger rises
Damage to be done
Hatred masses
I'll waste anyone
I'm calling
For your death
I'm coming
For your head
Madness screams
Dagger gleams
Light of the moon
Illuminates your doom
Stalking down
My accursed prey
Ripping sound
No sanity remains
Randomly select
The next victim for my wall
Taking apart
Body from skull
I'm calling
For your death
I'm coming
For your head
6. Forever Gone
Featuring Jim Trumbull of Jerkstore
Woke up today and you were gone
Wondering what I did wrong
Staring blankly at the walls
Although I know that you won't call
You left me cold & bare
No sign of life now you're not there
Hopeless feeling covers me
Like an empty smothering
Fetal position where I fall
Can't stop the tears I lose it all
You left me cold & bare
No sign of life now you're not there
No reason for me to carry on
My heart and my love are gone
AWAY!
7. Swindler
Stand on your soapbox, full of shit
Tell me your lies hypocrite
Distort the laws for your own gain
Talk down to us like we have no brains
Money, Power
It's all you crave
Leading, Helpless
To early graves
Leader of broken promises
Tell us how to live
Silence you scream out to the crowd
They stop to listen making no sound
Question not you say, they take the hook
And give you money, dirty crook
Tell the hopeless
To have no fear
You will save them
If the check clears
Leader of broken promises
Tell us how to live
Lead us down the path of poverty
'Till we have nothing to give
8. Forsaken (Todd's Song)
Got the news this morning
You have passed away
A blackened feeling covers me
Nothing will ever be the same
A sadness I cannot explain
Hollows my soul to the core
My heart fills with empty pain
I fall down screaming to the floor
Trying to hold onto you
Like leaves in the wind
The damage is done to you
No way to save my friend
Now that you are gone
I feel as though I've died (and can't go on)
How can I go on
Without you standing by my side
Taken from my life
A pain that you endured (it was so long)
My anger wells inside
For my friend there was no cure
Trying to hold onto you
Like leaves in the wind
The damage is done to you
No way to save my friend
Ripped away from me
Never again to see
The friend that I hold dear
Brother that I hold near
As the sun sets in the sky
I scream out GOD WHY?!
Why hast thou forsaken
MY BROTHER YOU HAVE TAKEN!!
9. Pain
Can you feel my PAIN?!
Don't you see what you have done
Turned me into what I've become
The mind games that you've played on me
In a cage I can't break free
Can you feel my pain
my pain
Broken down inside my head
Wishing somehow I were dead
Screaming at what I can't see
The end of what we used to be
Can you feel my pain
my pain
To see what we were
A dream that's shattered
Flying high on damaged wings
I start to fall away
All these things I've done for you
In the end you were untrue
This time I want you to feel
This pain inside that is so real
Can you feel my pain
my pain
10. Coma
