1. Council for the Cauldron
(L. Borden, T. Matuzak, G. Allen, M. Davis, J. Harges)
Spread your wings and fly away with me out for awhile
Light the torch eternal flame will set them all on fire
Come with me now, the blast is for the children
Only their eyes listen, they’re the council for the caldron
They’re the caldron yeah, they’re the chosen
The council for the cauldron
Gathering together on a misty blackened night
Congregation of illusion fill the halls with light
Disciples of disorder, can you hear my call
Cryin’ out the passion that will rise and never fall
And never fall
You’re the caldron - you’re the chosen yeah
You’re the caldron yeah
Stirin’ up, burnin’ up, the heat begins to rise
Now the joiners are uplifting
Growing twice its size
Disciples of disorder, can you hear my call
Cryin’ out the passion that will rise and never fall
And never fall
You’re the caldron, the council for the caldron yeah
2. Psychopath
(L. Borden, G. Allen)
I want to play…
I see that you’re all alone
I’ve got the need to follow you home
I’d like to be the shadow who stalks
I’ll lash out send your nerves into shock
You turn and stare you feel someone there
A psychopath could be anywhere
You start to run but you won’t go very far
I’ll always know where you are
I couldn’t even see your face
Excitement builds as I start the chase
You turn me on when your heart is pounding
It’s ecstasy when I hear you scream
I flash a knife to your paralyzed eyes
And only I will watch you die
Psychopath - on the loose
I know where you are at, got something for you
Psychopath - I got a blade
Cut you just like that, I wanna play
Psychopath - out on the street
Quiet as a cat, I’d love to meet you
Psychopath - I’ll have my way
Give ya forty whacks, I wanna play
3. Save Me
(L. Borden, T. Matuzak)
She’s acting like a woman
And you can tell by the look in her eyes
She’s still a child
And she tells me
She’s gonna go far her own way
And you know, yes you know
It’s just a game she plays
Save me
I’m not just any fool
You gotta - save me, save me
I’m dying here with you
Search for what you need
Hunger for the feed
If you crash you soon will burn
Never to return
I couldn’t see
My eyes were blinded
Now you’re a picture of the past
A cold reminder
Save me
I’m not just any fool
You gotta - save me, save me
I’m dying here with you
Search for what you need
Hunger for the feed
If you crash you soon will burn
Never to return
Save me
I’m not just any fool
You gotta - save me, save me
I’m dying here with you
Yeah, you’re killing me babe
4. Red Rum
(L. Borden, T. Matuzak, G. Allen, M. Davis, J. Harges)
All work and no pay
Makes Jack a dull boy
I’m driving insane
Cause I need a brand new toy
Killer stalks in search of prey
Sometimes my mind goes astray
The blood flows as my curtain calls
I’m bustin’ through your walls
All’s fair in love and war
Repeated nightmares have begun
Old wounds that never heal
I’ll cut them down one by one
Lusting them imaginary
Horrifying coronary
Tormented fools are on the run
Echo these screams red rum
Red rum - in two thirty seven
Red rum - a drink for your soul
When all the lights go down
And all the lost have been found
Round your neck your turn’s bound
Red rum - in two thirty seven
Red rum - a drink for your soul
Spirits ripping out my mind
Invade my brain with lies they shine
Deja - vu invites intrusion
Murder is the dead conclusion
Red rum - in two thirty seven
Red rum - a drink for your soul
Red rum - come out, come out wherever
Red rum - hello daddy’s home
5. Love You to Pieces
(L. Borden, T. Matuzak)
Through my eyes I watch
As you tried to run
Over you I stand, with my smokin’ gun
You can’t walk out on me now
I couldn’t let you go
If I can’t have you
No one will
I see them all through
The eyes
Through the eyes
Of a man
Forever you’ll stay safe and sound
Buried deep into the ground
In the back yard sealed real tight
I know you’ll never leave me now
Cause I know what’s best for you
And now there’s nothing you can do
So I think you understand
What I see, I see through the eyes
The eyes
Through the eyes
Of a man
Home sweet home, true colors now are shown
Kicked in the face alone
Through my eyes I watch
As you plead to me
On your knees you cry oh so helplessly
It’s all over but the shouting
And all along you knew the reasons
Why I love you to pieces
I see it in your eyes
In your eyes - in your eyes - in your eyes
Home sweet home, true colors now are shown
Kicked in the face alone
6. American Metal
(L. Borden)
Hearts of stone, skull and crossbones
We band together
The sound of steel, noise you can feel
The smell of leather
Suspended thighs, blackened cat eyes
We love to shout
The power’s in the crowd
Cause we all, we all love it loud
We love it loud
We all need - American Metal
Through in through - American Metal
You’ve go to bleed - American Metal
Red, white and blue - American Metal
Hear the thunder, rumble under
It cracks the sky
May the dust never settle
Heavy Metal, will never die
Salute the flag raise up your fist
And scream it out
The power’s in the crowd
Cause we all, we all love it loud
We love it loud
We all need - American Metal
Through in through - American Metal
You’ve go to bleed - American Metal
Red, white and blue - American Metal
We all need - American Metal
Through in through - American Metal
You’ve go to bleed - American Metal
Red, white and blue - American Metal
7. Flesheater
(L. Borden, T. Matuzak, G. Allen, M. Davis, J. Harges)
I growl for my meat
While you bark for the bone
I plunge in so deep
You swallow me whole
You lust for my tongue
I t makes me feel mean
I bound your arms
And lick you clean
Scream at the moon
Crazy as a loon
I feel your heartbeat - you’re breathless
Yu squirm with delight
As you frantically fight
Conceive paradise
Inside the dark
Inside the dark
Flesh eater - she wants it deep, deep, deeper
Flesh eater - I love to eat, eat, eat, eat her
Cimbin’ the walls
Claws on my back
My cannibal cry
Shrieks out my attack
Your temperature’s rising
You’re reaching the turn
Convulsions commencing
You’ll now start to burn
Flesh eater - she wants it deep, deep, deeper
Flesh eater - I love to eat, eat, eat, eat her
8. Warfare
(L. Borden, T. Matuzak)
Right between the eyes
We’ll blow ’em all away
Never knowing why, not today
Take ’em by surprise
It’s just a game for some
We’ll deliver them all to kingdom come
Warfare is all around you
Warfare has tied and bound you
Warfare lay always in your mind
Shoot to kill, ready at will
The plan of attack is survive
No hero’s here, just pain and fear
On the battlefield watch ’em die
Warfare is all around you
Warfare has tied and bound you
Warfare lay always in your mind
Warfare will crucify you
Warfare the truth will blind you
Warfare you lose even if you’ve won
Infiltration, propaganda
Political extravaganza
The laws of war
They’re all too clear
Mushroom clouds
The end is near
Warfare is all around you
Warfare has tied and bound you
Warfare lay always in your mind
Warfare will crucify you
Warfare the truth will blind you
Warfare you lose even if you’ve won
9. Godiva
(L. Borden, T. Matuzak, G. Allen, M. Davis, J. Harges)
The strands of hair that
Lay gold beware
The owner’s eyes are cruel
Keep your distance fight resistance
Don’t you be a fool
Godiva - fear her gold
A strange affair drives
Magnetic stare
A crazy bombshell brain
Can’t help myself
Under her spell
Blinded yellow flames
Godiva - fear her gold
Just an illusion inside of my mind
The vision so clear
It’s drawing me near
Sucking me, sucking me dry
Release me, you goddess of fire
Unleash me, you temp with desire
The power your hair mystifies
Captures the creatures of light
Godiva - fear her gold
10. Rod of Iron
ROD OF IRON
Time is not yours
Soon you will find
Back from behind
He's close behind your every move
I'm not afraid
Following the blind
Leading us to hell
Staying for all time
It's on my head
Savior
Yours is dead
Yours is dead
Yours is dead
The beginning of the end
The destruction of the sin
The darkness shades to light
Screaming out the cries
Of the fire burning inside
The king of kings
Shall rule, with the rod of iron
With the rod of iron
Forever he will burn
Into the lake of fire
Taking with him sorcerers
And liars
False profit
And the beast will die
Together forever, and ever, and ever
The king of kings shall rule
With the rod of iron
With the rod of iron
Never have the power to be free
Never show your mark for us to see
Never again be fooled by your disguise
Screaming out the cries
Of the fire burning inside
The king of kings shall rule with the rod of iron
With the rod of iron
Never have the power to be free
Never hear your hypnotizing lies
