All For You

My neck has been broke, in the noose of lifes rope.
Through my loss of you, I have found no hope.
Slain the emotions, lifeless and blue.
Destroying myself now..

All For You!
All For You!
All For You!!

Remote Recollection, of tranquility.
Terror grotesquely, becoming of me.
Unnameable joy, when our blood once ran true.
Destroying myself now..

All For You!!
(All! You! All! You!)
All For You!
All For You!

(solo)

All For You!
All For You!
(You, you, you, you, you...)




Phoney Smiles & Fake Hellos

You, yeah you, yeah you.
You got a cardboard cutout soul.
Just a powertripping, mindtraping, backstabbing, junkie,
thinking your hype is true.
You, yeah you, yeah you.
Respect ain't a word you know.
You're just a fabricated lie, that doesn't exist.
Dropping names where ever you go.

Life's Phoney Smiles And Fake Hellos.
The Hardcore rush, of watching heads role.
As I dig your grave and kill your lifeless stare,
Fuck yourself for all I fucking care.

You, yeah you, yeah you.
Thinking you know it all
35 years old with a wife and two kids,
still living in your mothers home
You, yeah you, yeah you.
You're a sellout and a social whore
You'd sell your mothers soul just to get ahead.
A disease down to the core.

Life's Phoney Smiles And Fake Hellos.
The Hardcore rush, of watching heads role.
As I dig your grave and kill your lifeless stare,
Go fuck yourself for all I fucking care.

(solo)

You, yeah you, yeah you.
I haven't figured what it is you do.
Just a no talent nothing with a ten ton ego,
untill your 15 minutes are through.
You, yeah you, yeah you.
A conscience deaf and blind.
Well I'm driving, the hearse without remorse,
killing you and your kind.

Life's Phoney Smiles And Fake Hellos.
The Hardcore rush, of watching heads role.
I dig your grave and kill your lifeless stare,
Fuck yourself for all I fucking care.




13 Years Of Grief

You're so fuckin' tough, so motherfuckin' bad.
13 Years Of Grief, is all your folks ever had.
Just and ignorant c*nt, talking such shit.
Tryin' to act act like a man,
You little fuckin' punk kid.

Yeah! Son, look at you now!
Yeah! Son, look at you now!

Day of court, day of fear, in walks the judge.
Half a year, nothing less. No he wouldn't budge.
Hand over your belongins, and your motherfuckin' soul.
That's the joy of life,
Six months in the hole.

Yeah! Son, look at you now!
Yeah! Son, look at you now!

(solo)

You wrecked your mother, yeah you beat her down.
Teachers can't protect you, when your friends are 'round.
What's so tough, so motherfuckin' bad.
13 Years Of Grief, is all your folks ever had.

Yeah! Son, look at you now!
Yeah! Son, look at you now!




Rust

Living, Fighting, Obsessing,
Just as long as I can share it all with you.
Yesterday, today tomorrow,
Come rain, come shine.
Hell and back, the beginning, inbetween,
Till' the end of time.

All that shines, turns to rust.
All that stands in time,
Turns to dust.

As above, so below.
You ain't no fool and honey I'm damn sure that you know.
Yesterday, today tomorrow,
Come rain, come shine.
Hell and back, the beginning, inbetween,
Till' the end of time.

All that shines, turns to rust.
All that stands in time,
Turns to dust.

(oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.. ah-ah)
(oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.. ah-ah)
(oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.. ah-ah)

(solo)

All that shines, turns to rust.
All that stands in time,
Turns to dust.

All that shines, turns to rust.
All that stands in time,
Turns to dust.




Superterrorizer

I'm your suicidal, doomsday matchine.
Bestowing my grace on everything.
My ill will shall never leave.
Embracing untill you cannot breath.

Superterrorizer
Superterrorizer

Crashing, burning, in you I confide.
I'll drink and spew all your blood stained pride.
You're just a pinball inside my matchine.
Untill you reach the falls, my closing stream.

Superterrorizer
Superterrorizer

(solo)

Superterrorizer
Superterrorizer




Counterfeit God

(God no, God no) (God no, God no)
(God no, God no) (God no, God no)

Can't you see I feel your pain?
I got jesus running thourhg my veins.
In this hopeless life that's turned on your.
Give yourself to me, I'll help you through.
I feed off your unanswered fear,
When visions of lifes end appear.
Hand over your will and then you'll see.
Now get on your knees and worship me.

(God no, God no)
Worship me. (God no, God no)
On your knees!
Worship me. (God no, God no)

In this world when at it's best,
Of never ending hate and death.
Abandon all and trust in me.
Escaping from reality.
My world, it has no space or time,
The crippled walk, and the sick feel fine.
Hand over your will and then you'll see.
Now get on your knees and worship me.

(God no, God no)
Worship me. (God no, God no)
On your knees!
Worship me. (God no, God no)

(solo)

Beyond this wall of life unknown,
I'll lead you where you need to go.
Void of worry , stress and pain.
Left with nothing but your name.
We've washed your brain and clensed your soul,
Till' nothing's all you need to know.
Hand over your will and then you'll see.
Now get on your knees and worship me.

(God no, God no)
Worship me. (God no, God no)
On your knees!
Worship me. (God no, God no)

(God no, God no)
Worship me. (God no, God no)
On your knees!
Worship me. (God no, God no)




Ain't Life Grand

Concieved to kill, living just to die.
Hell in an hand basket, why even try?
Death on death, makes the word go 'round.
Fitting to live, six feet underground.

(Oh yeah, oh yeah!)
Ain't nothing gonna change.
The more they do, the more they're the same.
Different name familiar face.
Not to be taken, or replaced.

Killing, Raping,
Bridge burning, forsaken,
Despising, undermining,
Betraying, slaying,
Give it a hand. Ain't life grand?

The world at war, number one
One more time, 'cause it was so damn fun
Things were pure, back in the day
You're fucking dreaming old man,
It's always been this way.

(Oh yeah, oh yeah!)
Ain't nothing gonna change.
The more they do, the more they're the same.
Different name familiar face.
Not to be taken, or replaced.

Killing, Raping,
Bridge burning, forsaken,
Undermining, despising,
Betraying, slaying,
Give it a hand. Ain't life grand?

(solo)

(Yeah, oh yeah!)
Ain't nothing gonna change.
The more they do, the more they're the same.
Different name familiar face.
Not to be taken, or replaced.

Killing, Raping,
Bridge burning, forsaken,
Undermining, despising,
Betraying, slaying,
Give it a hand. Give it a hand.
Give it a hand. Ain't life grand?




Just Killing Time

I sit reflecting, I feel end has begun.
It seems my days, now mirror the setting sun.
So many places, that I have been.
This ride that was long, seems so short in terms of now and then.

(ohh) For all that has been,
(ohh) And all that is,
(ohh) And all that's to be.
Lord I'm just killing time, and time's killing me.

Dead man breathing, just taking up space.
Calloused and weathered, like the lines on ones face.
Dead man breathing, my conscience is bare.
The lining of my soul is torn, yet I no longer care.

(ohh) For all that has been,
(ohh) And all that is,
(ohh) And all that's to be.
Lord I'm just killing time, time's killing me.

(solo)

(ohh) For all that has been,
(ohh) And all that is,
(ohh) And all that's to be.
I'm just killing time, time's killing me.




Bullet Inside Your Head

Kicked around, smacked about
Gagged & bound
No more on the down & out
Took my pay, cut me off, had a laugh
Tables are now turning around
Thought it was funny
Just spending my money
Thinking I'm a joke
Yeah, oh yeah
No more doors shut on life & me
Now I refuse to see

Ohh!
I will break you, I'm the bullet that's miles inside your head
The final vision, last word that shall be said
I will break you, I'm the bullet that's miles inside your head

We meet again, how have you been?
Meet my friend
I've come to collect what's mine
Immune to fear, with this gun in hand
The future's clear
All that was is to be realigned
Thought it was funny, spending my money
Thinking I'm a joke
Yeah, Oh Yeah
Life's four walls crashing down
Closing in
Let's let your end begin

Yes I am, yes I am
If you ask me, I'd do it again




Stronger Than Death

Hunt me down, seek me out, bring your best
That's how I want it to be
Full of doubt, full of fear, all's unclear
It's over cuz now I can see
Like a tank, seething strength, crushing all
Pulling you under my treads
Lost some years, lost some days, that's O.K.
I piss on what's in my way

(CHORUS)

Your two-faced abusin'
Mindless confusion
Resolution
(I feel I'm breathing my first breath)
Manipulation
Dyin' salvation
You'll never rest
(You can't kill what's stronger than death)

Looked inside, found myself, it was me
Waitin' there at the well
If you're green, you ain't seen, life's a game
Sometimes it's just hard to tell
Gouging eyes, breakin' bones, eatin' flesh
Puts a smile on my face
Crawlin' through glass, eatin' nails, losin' blood
It's all part of findin' your place

Chorus




Love Reign Down

All that you want, and all that you need
Don't bother asking, just come to me
I know I'll see you, I'll see you again
Just keep on talking, listen when you can

Love reign down on me
Love reign down on me
Love reign down on me
Love reign down on me
Oh, Down On Me

It's something you find,yeah, you'll never lose
A feeling so fine now, just thinking of you
Take your time son, take it slow
Sooner or later, you'll get where you gotta go

Love reign down on me
Love reign down on me
Love reign down on me
Love reign down on me
Oh, Down On Me

Looking back on the times we shared
Yeah, you and me
You held me up, you made me high
You're the way life's meant to be
