1. Introduction
(whispered)
Armed and cruel psychopaths
Brutal sexual deviants
Furious to the backbone
They create... dead ends
2. Everyone
Everyone will have his last hour, last minute
Last second, and the last day, last day
Everyone will have his time for the last
Heartbeat, the last breath, last breath
We are subject to death!
Everyone!...
Everyone will have his last wink
Before his eyelids close forever, close forever
Everyone will have his last word
Before his lips are sealed for good, for good
We are subject to death!
Everyone!...
Everyone will have his last road
The road to death, to death
Everyone will have his place of the earth
Where his bones will be laid in due time, in due time
We are subject to death!
Everyone!...
3. Barbaric Justice
Standing at the edge of the chasm
Man is able to do anything
He has no self-control
He cannot restrain his drives
Depression brings evil thoughts
Depression engenders murder
Depression brings evil thoughts
Depression engenders murder
He ran afraid of the people
Knowing what would be happen if they got him
He could not defend himself
He did not know why he killed
And justice has prevailed
The culprit has been punished
Death was revenged with death
Crime triggered another crime
Death penalty, legal murder
Death for death, barbaric justice
Barbaric justice
No one looks for the guilty
And the guilty is only one
No one looks for the causes
It's one way, death for the crime
And justice has prevailed
The culprit has been punished
Death was revenged with death
Crime triggered another crime
Death penalty, legal murder
Death for death, barbaric justice
Barbaric justice
Legal murder
4. Blind Alley
Lies confuse your brain
You don't know reality's around
Your life
Is becoming a nightmare
Systems of lies
Are turning you into a fool
You take the risk
Whenever you're playing this game
Lies confuse your brain
And all your information
It's hard to tell
The true from the false, the false from the true
Tall story
Is your daily bread
Once you have started
You will never end
Blind alley, and nowhere to go
Blind alley, you'll never come back
Blind alley, nothing to enjoy
Blind alley, blind alley
You will never come again
From the road to blind alley
It works like a drug
You'll never give it up
Lying is gambling
Draws you in more and more
It won't leave you alone
'Till you haven't lost all
It won't leave you alone
'Till you haven't lost your life
And nowhere to go
Blind alley, you'll never come back
Blind alley, nothing to enjoy
Blind alley, blind alley
You will never come again
From the road to blind alley
5. Annihilate
Blows will turn the cities into ruins
No stone will be left unturned
Hail will bomb every roof
Fire will melt all the shelters
Noise will drawn the cries of the dying
Light will blind every eye
Pressure will crush you like a roller
X-rays will turn you into nuclear waste
Annihilate, annihilate
Left to the mercy of maniacs
We are waiting for the total holocaust
The staffs of psychopaths
Wanna annihilate life
(And they are turning on
A huge machine of death)
Storm will break your bones
Wind will blow your ashes
Rain will flush the blood
Sun will dry what remains
Annihilate, annihilate
Annihilate, annihilate
Annihilate!
6. Enola Gay
Skeletons of houses sunken in the ground
And red-hot walls and windows
Swirling pieces of living flesh
Storms of fire are melting the stones
Legs and hands sunken in asphalt
Weighting in paid human scraps
Infernal attack came from the air
Enola Gay
The river of molten faces
Is sweeping all with its long tongue
Hungry fire devour its victims
Blood running hot in their veins
That's how the end of the world has begun
In flames its last moments of life
Infernal attack came from the air
Enola Gay
That's how the end of the world has begun
In flames its last moments of life
Infernal attack came from the air
Enola Gay
7. Evolution
The world is undergoing constant evolution
The rock has become a nuclear head
That's way our wars are more and more cruel
That's way more and more people are dead
Dead!
To what will bring us our nuclear arms?
How will the cold war finally end?
Must a generation without war go mad?
Can we have humankind without wars?
I don't know, I don’t know
I don't know, I don’t know
War is omnipresent
It will remain with us forever
It's a crucial element of life
Just like the will to power
We're waiting for nuclear war…
The world is undergoing constant evolution
The rock has become a nuclear head
Must a generation without war go mad?
Can we have humankind without wars?
I don't know, I don’t know
I don't know, I don’t know
We're waiting for nuclear war…
War!
8. The Raven
Black bird provokes melancholic and depressing associations
I am obsessed with masochistic satisfaction in self-torture
Self-torture
I am asking myself questions to inflict the greatest pain
And I know the answers to the questions in advance:
"Nevermore"
Mysterious eyes of the raven are increasing my depression
Its answers are driving me mad
(spoken)
"And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!"
(Edgar Allan Poe – The Raven, first published in 1845)
9. Dead End
Armed and cruel psychopaths
With sadistic inclinations
Are unleashing terror
They are able to kill without mercy
Brutal sexual deviants
Rape and murder their victims
With wildly sparkling eyes
They don't spare animals or children
Terror, cruelty, fear
Dead end, dead end
Violence, crime, despair
Dead end, dead end
Hatred, aggression, crying
Dead end, dead end
Here comes dead end...
Armed and cruel psychopaths
Brutal sexual deviants
Furious to the backbone
They create dead ends
Furious to the backbone
Full of raging hatred
They discharge aggression
On anything that stands in their way
Terror, cruelty, fear
Dead end, dead end
Violence, crime, despair
Dead end, dead end
Hatred, aggression, crying
Dead end, dead end
Here comes dead end...
10. Mortuary
From the wide open door comes deadly chill
Something draws me inside, the stench and thrill
I don't know where I am, I’m here by chance
The odour of rotting bodies clears any doubts
Mortuary
It's cold and smelly here, makes me afraid
Lying next to each other, anonymous dead bodies
Hardly visible shapes under white sheet
Protruding bluish feet remind me where I am
Mortuary
This place is so impressive, makes you remember death
I must escape from here, away from this foul stench
It's only one corridor and I will be outside
But I can't escape the truth that I’ll have to return
Mortuary
But I can't escape the truth
That I’ll have to return
Mortuary
11. Prophetic Sound
It racks me, doesn't leave me alone
It racks me, doesn't let me sleep
I can hear this sound everywhere
It fills the space all around
Sepulchral, mood prevails everywhere
Sepulchral, climate in my head
I can hear this sound everywhere
It fills the space all around
Bell... the prophetic sound...
Ringing bells are driving me mad
Ringing bells are now my obsession
Noise drown other tones
I can hear that sound everywhere
I can get no relief
It fills the space all around
Is this a sign from god or my imagination?
Is then the bell my fate or my imagination?
Sound of bells, doesn't leave me alone
Sound of bells, doesn't let me sleep
Bell... the prophetic sound...
Ringing bells are driving me mad
Ringing bells are now my obsession
