WICKED MAIDEN

Better run from the Wicked Maiden, she's a war machine
She strikes without a warning, bring you to your knees
Her realm is filled with fire, across the battlefield
I see the death toll rising, a wound that never heals

Can you see it? Can you feel it?
Don't believe it? Think you're dreaming?
Runaway!

You want to wake from this chilling nightmare, but you're not asleep
Stories tell of mutilation, enough to make you weep
In the name of an old religion or free democracy
Many soldiers falling under the sword of fallacy
In the heat of the confrontation, better say you're prayers
For the dawn of a new salvation, death is everywhere

Can you see it? Can you feel it?
Don't believe it? Think you're dreaming?

Runaway, from the Wicked Maiden
Runaway from the deadly war machine
Runaway from the Evil Monster
Runaway from the one who makes you scream
Wicked Maiden!

Runaway, from the Wicked Maiden
Hideaway from the deadly war machine
Runaway from the Evil Monster
Hideaway from the one that makes you scream

Runaway, from the Wicked Maiden
Hideaway from the deadly war machine
Runaway from the Evil Monster
Hideaway from the one that makes you bleed




LAST OF A DYING BREED

I am the one
You can see the fear inside their eyes

Break into the morning show, crime is rising
Bringing you the video, people dying
No one know's what's going on, children hiding
Streets are like a battle zone, widow's crying

I must face all my enemies
Protect and defend what is mine
I will fight until victory
For I am the one, the Last of a Dying Breed

Life and death is on the edge, hope is fading
People jumping from the ledge, suffocating
Keep alert and watch your back, retribution
Under siege under attack, no solution

Eyes of fear, a dying nation
Chaos rules, you feel the frustration
No one's safe, a broken system
Stand my ground, I won't be a victim

I must face all my enemies
Protect and defend what is mine
I will fight until victory
For I am the one, the Last of a Dying Breed
I won't live in fear

 I must face all my enemies
Protect and defend what is mine
I will fight until victory
For I am the one, I'm under the gun
I must face all my enemies
Protect and defend what is mine
I will fight until victory
For I am the one, the Last of a Dying Breed




WEAPONS OF MASS DISTORTION

Oh no, don't tell me your lies!

Weapons of mass distortion, images and words
Slanted observations, truth is never heard
Opinions and conclusions that are lacking in the facts
Speculation junkies feel the monkey on their back

You can see what you want to see
You will hear what you want to hear

Weapons of mass distortion
Weapons of mass distortion

Political agenda, intelligent design
Imaginary data trying to write the script assigned
Optimistic dreamers, prophets of the polls
No scientific evidence so the surveys bought and sold

You can say what you want to say
That don't mean  I will buy today

Can you really believe anything you hear talking through your radio?
I don't buy it!
Can you believe everything you see coming through your TV screen?

Weapons of Mass Distortion, media control
Spinning every story trying to manipulate my world
Stepping up all the drama, never really know the score
Ratings week, better shock and awe, then dazzle me some more

Weapons of Mass Distortion, coming through your TV screen
Weapons of Mass Distortion, talking through the radio
Weapons of Mass Distortion, headlines sell the magazines
Weapons of Mass Distortion




GARDEN OF EDEN

Cursed and over-rated, and you will burn in hell
So stay away from the reaper and run from his ringing bell
Don't you play with his fire and light yourself ablaze
Climb up to salvation and ride out of the grave

I see the world and it's empty
Paradise lost from the sin of a man

In the Garden of Eden - There's the devil in disguise
Garden of  Eden - Standing right before your eyes
In the Garden of Eden - There's a snake inside the grass
Garden of Eden - And you're gonna taste the wrath

Burning in the seduction, lying to yourself
Think your doing justice, feed your money well
Judgment Day is coming, lightning hailing down
Flee from the rage of heaven cuz time is running out

I see the world, it's so empty
Paradise lost from the sin of a man

In the Garden of Eden - There's the devil in disguise
Garden of  Eden - Staring right into your eyes
In the Garden of Eden - There's a snake inside the grass
Garden of Eden - And you're gonna face the wrath

In the Garden of Eden, In the Garden of Eden

In the Garden of Eden - There's the devil in disguise
Garden of Eden - Standing right before your eyes
In the Garden of Eden - There's a snake inside the grass
Garden of Eden - And you're gonna taste the wrath
Garden of Eden - There's the devil in disguise
Garden of Eden - Staring right into your eyes
In the Garden of Eden - There's a snake inside the grass
Garden of Eden - And you're gonna face the wrath




THE VISION

I see the lightning strike as it shoots across the sky
I hear the thunder roll as it shakes the earth inside
Bringing down the wrath of God for the sins of Babylon
All eyes on the Son of Man as he steps down from the clouds

Send us to oblivion, shake the hand of wrath

Now I'm ready to die - for my conviction
Fight - my opposition
Cry - in my affliction tonight
You know I'm ready to die - it's my decision
Fight - the inquisition
Cry - for my submission tonight
Now I'm ready to die - in my confession
Fight - it's my obsession
Cry - for my transgression tonight
You know I'm ready to die - in this condition
Fight - for my position
Cry - I see the vision tonight

Built upon the sacrifice of the ones who came before
Laying down the cornerstone of the Word forevermore
Our days are numbered as we spin out of control
Compromise and little white lies can't purify the soul

Send us to oblivion, shake the hand of wrath

Now I'm ready to die - for my conviction
Fight - my opposition
Cry - in my affliction tonight
You know I'm ready to die - it's my decision
Fight - the inquisition
Cry - for my submission tonight
Now I'm ready to die - in my confession
Fight - it's my obsession
Cry - for my transgression tonight
You know I'm ready to die - in this condition
Fight - for my position
Cry - I see the vision tonight





Lying on the floor from a shot in the heart
Spinning from the lies and a life in the dark
Messing with my mind, I could barely see
Just another lesson that I did not need

Then the sky just opened up and she was standing there
All my fears just turned to hope again

She's got the Eyes of an Angel ( Eyes )
Lifting me higher than I ever dreamed
Eyes of an Angel ( Angel )
Taking ma places that I never knew
She's got the Eyes of an Angel ( Eyes )
Lost in your heaven, can this be true?
Eyes of an Angel ( Angel )
Finding the reason to believe again

Now my world can open up because she is standing there
All my fears just turned to hope again

She's got the Eyes of an Angel ( Eyes )
Lifting me higher than I ever dreamed
Eyes of an Angel ( Angel )
Taking ma places that I never knew
She's got the Eyes of an Angel ( Eyes )
Lost in your heaven, can this be true?
Eyes of an Angel ( Angel )
Finding the reason to believe again




HIGH-SCOOL REVOLUTION

Eight O'clock sharp and the bell has rung, School doors open and my mind goes numb
Too many teachers, too many rules, Too many texts on my cell phone too
Books and papers, pencils and pens, Math and science just ain't my friend
I need a life, it's a waste of my day, To hear you babble for my stinkin' grade

Got my eyes full of coming attractions
Don't you know it's a major distraction
Can't learn nothing in this place
I think I know just what I need

Hi-Scool Revolution, Ring the bell I got nothing to lose
No more thought pollution, I don't care about your stupid rules
Don't lecture me about your history, cuz when I leave you know I can't even read

Standing in the check in for security, Pass the little wand from my head to my feet
I get inside - got an attitude, Dealing with the crazies and the bangers too
Teacher looking with seductive eyes, Someone's got a gun - cut em' down to size
I need a nap to take my FCAT score, Pop another quiz and now I'm really bored

Got my eyes full of coming attractions
Don't you know it's a major distraction
Can't learn nothing in this place
I think I know just what I need

Hi-Scool Revolution, Fire drill get me out of here
No more thought pollution, Juvenile delinquent atmosphere
Hi-Scool Revolution, learning nothing cuz I'm A.D.D.
No more mind delusion, Don't fill my head with your apologies
Tell me! How do you spell that?

Hi-Scool Revolution, Ring the bell I got nothing to lose
No more thought pollution, I don't care about your stupid rules
Don't lecture me about your history, cuz when I leave you know I can't even read

Hi-Scool Revolution, Fire drill get me out of here
No more thought pollution, Juvenile delinquent atmosphere
Hi-Scool Revolution, learning nothing cuz I'm A.D.D.
No more mind delusion, Don't fill my head with your apologies




WONDERFUL LIFE

Here I stand watching you, thinking you got it all
Super job, Cadillacs, a mansion for a house
Diamond rings, fancy clothes, expensive restaurants
Living high on credit cards and you love to show it off

I see your wonderful life, it sure looks better than mine
You rent the American dream and now you're a slave to the lie

Little man, dressed to kill, pretend you got the life
Mercedes Benz, three years lease, but you can't pay the price
Look at you, big rock star, living above the crowd
But fantasy is all it is when you're walking tall and proud
Time will come to pay your debt and taste reality
But no one's there to stop and stare, you're living in a dream

I see your wonderful life, is it really better than mine?
You rent the American dream and now you're a slave to the lie
I see your beautiful life, it looks like you've got it all
Seems like it's a wonderful life but you're headed for a fall

Such a wonderful life
Such a beautiful life
It's a wonderful life

I see your wonderful life, is it really better than mine?
You rent the American dream and now you're a slave to the lie
I see your beautiful life, it looks like you've got it all
Seems like it's a wonderful life but you're headed for a fall
I see your wonderful life, it ain't no better than mine
Slave to the American dream, someday you will pay the price
I see your wonderful life




HOLY MAN

Carry the burden and conquer the grave
Walking through darkness on the road that was paved
Breaking the power and the shackles of death
Rising to life on the words that you said

Out in the desert you faced it alone, temptation that comes from the foe
Blessing the weak and then healing the poor, there's no place that you can call home
Warning the masses, the kingdom is at hand
Coming in power, the end of the age, the one that they call "Son of Man"

He walks among the dead, The holy man
He sits upon the throne, The holy man

You can't deny the Christ anymore
He rose so high above the law
The holy man will come again
The wrath of God - the end of the age

Born of a virgin foretold in the past
Fulfilling the words that the sages forecast
Cursing the devil and the demons of night
Bringing salvation to the children of light

Miracle man on a mission of love
Showing the signs from above
Political rivals and skeptical eyes
Spreading their lies to corrupt

He walks among the dead, The holy man
He sits upon the throne, The holy man

You can't deny the Christ anymore
He rose so high above the law
The holy man will come again
The wrath of God - the end of the age
You can't deny the Christ anymore
He rose so high above the law
The holy man will come again
The wrath of God - the end of the age
Holy man




THE BATTLE RAGES ON

You never see it coming, but you can read the writing on the wall
Purity to corruption, a thought begins but soon the flesh will fall
Jealousy and anger, an evil heart no one can ever know
In the winds of deception, you hold the line against the flow

On an on since the dawn of all creation
An endless game, it's the conflict of the ages

In the war between good and evil
The battle rages on
In the fight between light and darkness
The armor must be strong

In this world of confusion, the hand is always quicker than the eye
A spirit of delusion, you justify your conscience with your mind
Just like Cain and Abel, or like Mother Theresa, Genghis Khan
One extreme to another, the pendulum is swinging hard

On and on since the dawn of all creation
An endless game, it's the conflict of the ages

In the war between good and evil
The battle rages on
In the fight between light and darkness
The armor must be strong
In the war between good and evil
The battle rages on
There's a line between light and darkness
That crosses every realm
