1. Grinder (Judas Priest cover)

Never straight and narrow
I won't keep in time
Tend to bend the arrow out of line
Been inclined to wander
Off the beaten track
That's where there's thunder and the wind shouts back

Grinder - looking for the meat
Grinder - wants you to eat

Got no use for routine
I shiver at the thought
Open skies on my scene this boy won't get caught
Refuse to bait the man trap
Be left to set the snare
I love to have my sight capped everywhere

Grinder - looking for meat
Grinder - wants you to eat

I have my licence
It came with birth
For self reliance of this earth
You take the bullet
On which my name
Was etched to file me in your game

Day of independence
Stamped us like a brand
On the necks of millions to the land
As the mighty eagle
I need room to breath
Witness from the treadmill
I take my leave

Grinder - looking for meat
Grinder - wants you to eat
Grinder - looking for meat
Grinder - wants you to eat




2. Blind Leading the Blind

Purity or impurity
Thought sedation orchestration
Mediocrity, stupidity
Perform virtual abacination

Depravity, morality
Embodiment of temptation
Vanity, profanity
Sensual evisceration

(Ch) Ignorance creed
Righteous breed
Blind leading the blind

Sanity, insanity
Unworthy of creation
Misery, servility
Useless constitution

Treachery, naivety
Preying on perception
Trickery, mastery
Blatantly clear deception




3. Children of the Grave (Black Sabbath cover)

Revolution in their minds, the children start to march
Against the world in which they have to live
And all the hate that's in their hearts
They're tired of being pushed around and told just what to do
They'll fight the world until they've won
And love comes flowing through, yeah

Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today
Will the sunrise of tomorrow bringing peace in any way
Must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear
Can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear?, yeah

So you children of the world, listen to what I say
If you want a better place to live in spread the word today
Show the world that love is still alive, you must be brave
Or you children of today are children of the grave, yeah

Children of the grave...




4. In Extremis




5. Countess Bathory (Venom cover)

Welcoming the virgins fair, to live a noble life
In the castle known to all - the Count's internal wife
She invites the peasants with endless lavish foods
But, when evening spreads it wings, she rapes them of their blood
Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

All day long the virgins sit and feast on endless meals
The Countless laughs and sips her wine - her skin doth crack and peel
But when nighttime fills the air one must pay the price
The Countess takes her midnight bath with blood that once gave life
Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory

Living in her self styled Hell, the Countess dressed in black
Life's so distant - death's so near - no blood to fury time back
The castle walls are closing in, she's crippled now with age
Welcomes death with open arms - the reaper turns the page
Countess Bathory
Countess Bathory




6. Cold Comfort

Stick the knife in me and turn it real slow
Screaming in pain but I just want it more
Tell yourself it’s alright
Could you believe such a personal lie

What do you want from me ?
Isn’t it something I can’t give ?
Why do you lie to me ?
Why do you find it so hard to forgive ?

(Chorus)
Broken, despised
Humbled and beaten for what you believe
When you search for the one
Who feels your pain you will
Find only Cold Comfort

Mid :
Don’t tell me you don’t know the deeds
That make this hell liveable
Don’t tell me you don’t know what it takes
To sever this lifeline to reality
Don’t tell me you’re afraid
To take what does not exist
Don’t tell me you can’t
Give what does not belong
Just tell me how it feels
Living in this sterile bubble

Now you’ve subjugated yourself to me
You’ve deified this existence of mine
Why is there no one to blame ?
Those still waters run treacherously deep

Living this life of sorrow
Struggle, defeat, anger…you know them well
Bring those memories back
Can you look at my face in the mirror ?




7. Alone Again

It’s cold where I come from
It’s colder where I’m going
The blizzards from my past have frozen me
I’ve ceased to dream

Just leave me be in my
Eternal isolation
Cherish this non-existence
Never violate my being again

(Chorus)
But why can’t I hear the past weep
For the things I’ve tried to forget…when it’s all done and said
I’ve tried to throw away the key
But somebody always brings it back to me

I cannot see those colours now
My eyes have become impervious to light
The walls are closing in
I feel, but I cannot touch

This journey had to end
The man became a boy again
He ceased to struggle, he ceased to dream
He ceased to kick, he ceased to scream

Don’t say it’s beginning
Tell me it’s ending
Is my past the future
Is my present the past




8. The Wickerman (Iron Maiden cover)

Hand of fate is moving and the finger points to you
He knocks you to your feet and so what are you gonna do?
Your tongue has frozen, now you've got something to say
The piper at the gates of dawn is calling you his way

You watch the world exploding every single night
Dancing in the sun a newborn in the light
Say goodbye to gravity and say goodbye to death
Hello to eternity and live for every breath

Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come

The ferryman wants his money, you ain't going to give it back
He can push his own boat as you set up off the track
Nothing you can contemplate will ever be the same
Every second is a new spark, sets the universe aflame

You watch the world exploding every single night
Dancing in the sun a newborn in the light
Brothers and their fathers joining hands and make a chain
The shadow of the Wicker Man is rising up again

Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come

Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come
Your time will come, your time will come

10. Requiem




11. Eat Me (Sodom cover)

Your big brown eyes look sharp
Beneath your neck
I feel myself getting hard
Spread your crack

Hellfire and damnation
You sweat blood
You feel yourself well served
No you're not

Eat me!
Eat me!

Number one in your face
Number two on your cans
Orgasmic rush of lust
Rip off my pants

Eat me!

Come on taste my candy cream
Do the cannibal for me
Built like a brick shithouse
G.I.B

Eat me!
Come on eat me!
Eat me!




12. Existential Schizm

Await, the unity of self
Divided, molten boundaries solidify
Awake, to a life of schism
Watching, as the world passes you by

You claw at the walls
Of the glass cage surrounding you
Convergence, divergence
Seeking at last to be free

Chorus
Ventriloquist, the vocal captor
Puppeteer, pulling strings
Evade controlling variables
Master of your own destiny

Doors are opening and closing
Only you don’t know which side you’re on
A primal urge from within
Some things are best left buried

To be the only one
The one left standing alone
The dream finally realized
In a struggle to remain unified




13. South of Heaven (Slayer cover)

An unforseen future nestled somewhere in time
Unsuspecting victims, no warnings, no signs
Judgment day the second coming arrives
Before you see the light, you must die!

Forgotten children, conform a new faith
Avidity and lust controlled by hate
The never ending search for your shattered sanity
Souls of damnation in their own reality

Chaos, rampant
An age of distrust
Confrontations
Impulsive habitat

Bastard sons bagat your cunting daughters
Promiscuous mothers with your incestuous fathers
Engreat souls condemned for all eternity
Sustained by immoral observance a domineering deity

Chaos, rampant
An age of distrust
Confrontations
Impulsive sabbath

On and on south of heaven!...

The root of all evil is the heart of a black soul
A force that has lived all eternity
A never ending search for a truth never told
The loss of all hope and your dignity

Chaos, rampant
An age of distrust
Confrontations
Impulsive habitat

On and on south of heaven!...




14. Mandatory Suicide (Slayer cover)

Murder at your every foot step
A child's toy sudden death
Sniper blazes you thru your knees
Falling down can you feel the heat
Burn!!!

Ambushed by the spray of lead
Count the bullet holes in your head.
Offspring sent out to cry
Living mandatory suicide
Suicide, suicide, suicide, suicide

Holes burn deep in your chest
Raked by machine gun fire
Screaming skull sent out to die
Living mandatory suicide
Suicide, suicide, suicide, suicide

Lying, dying, screaming in pain
Begging, pleading, bullets drop like rain
Mines explode, pain sheers through your brain
Radical amputation, this is insane
Fly swatter stakes drive through your chest
Spikes impale you as you're forced off the crest
Soldier of misfortune hunting with bated breath
A vile smell, like tasting death
Dead bodies, dying and wounded, litter the city streets
Shattered glass, bits of clothing and human deceit
Dying in terror, blood's cheap - it's everywhere!
Mandatory suicide, massacre on the front line




15. Preaching to the Deaf

Do as I say, not as I do,
Words and deeds converge in untruth
Condition a mind that’s malleable
Force another to live your confusion

A blank page to be written on
Nobody asked you to write this story
Wrestle the pen from the confident hand
Maliciously editing another life

(Chorus)
Preaching to the deaf,
Wasting your wretched breath
Preaching to the deaf
Nobody can lend you an ear

Never asked you for your advice
Why don’t you see your own life
Cannot pretend that everything’s right
Unlike you, I don’t need this plight

Do you sense you’re blind
Choosing ignorance is your crime
Shield your fragile self from consequence
Of choosing to live as if in a trance




16. I wanna be




17. Whiplash (Metallica cover)

Late at night all systems go
You have come to see the show
We do our best, you're the rest
You make it real, you know
There is a feeling deep inside
That drives you fucking mad
A feeling of a hammerhead
You need it, oh, so bad

Adrenalin starts to flow
You're thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac
...Whiplash!

Bang your head against the stage
Like you never did before
Make it ting make it bleed
Make it really sore
In a frenzied madness
With your leathers and your spikes
Heads are bobbing all around
It is hot as Hell tonight

Adrenalin starts to flow
You're thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac
...Whiplash!

Here on stage the Marshall noise
Is piercing through your ears
It kicks your ass, kick your face
Exploding feeling nears
Now it is time to let it rip
To let it fuckin' loose
We are gathered here to maim and kill
Cause this is what we choose

Adrenalin starts to flow
You're thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac...

Here we go!

Whiplash!

The show is through, the metal is gone
It is time to hit the road
Another town, another gig
Again we will explode
Hotel rooms and motorways
Life out there is raw
But we will never stop
We will never quit
Cause we are MetallicA

Adrenalin starts to flow
You're thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac...




18. Paint it Black (Rolling Stones cover)
