RIDE THE LIGHTING 1984
FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE
Time is like
a fuse, short and burning fast
Fight fire with fire
RIDE THE LIGHTNING
Guilty as charged
Flash before my eyes
Sweat, chilling cold
FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS
Make his fight
on the hill in the early day
For whom the bell tolls
For whom the bell tolls
FADE TO BLACK
Life it seems,
will fade away
TRAPPED UNDER ICE
I don't know
how to live trough this hell
Freezing
Freezing
Freezing
ESCAPE
Fell no pain,
but my life ain't easy
Out for my own, out to be free
Life is for my own to live my own way
CREEPING DEATH
Slaves
So let it be written
Now
Die by my hand
THE CALL OF KTULU
Instrumental
Do unto others
as they have done to you
But what in
the hell is this world coming to?
Blow the universe
into nothingness
Nuclear warfare
shall lay us to rest
Fight fire with fire
Ending is near
Fight fire with fire
Bursting with fear
We all shall
die
Armageddon is
here, like said in the past
Fight fire with fire
Ending is near
Fight fire with fire
Bursting with fear
Soon to fill
our lungs the hot winds of death
The gods are
laughing, so take your last breath
Fight fire with fire
Ending is near
Fight fire with fire
Bursting with fear
(repeat)
But damn it,
it ain't right
There is someone
else controlling me
Death in the
air
Strapped in
the electric chair
This can't be
happening to me
Who made you
God to say
"I'll take your
life from you!"
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame
Wait for the sign
To flick the switch
of death
It's the beginning
of the end
As I watch death unfold
Consciousness is my
only friend
My fingers grip with
fear
What am I doing here?
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame
Someone help me
Oh please God help
me
They are trying to
take it all away
I don't want to die
Time moving slowly
The minutes seem like
hours
The final curtain
call I see
How true is this?
Just get it over with
If this is true, just
let it be
Wakened by horrid
cream
Freed from this frightening
dream
Flash before my eyes
Now it's time to die
Burning in my brain
I can feel the flame
Constant chill
deep inside
Shouting gun,
on they run through the endless grey
On the fight,
for they are right, yes, by who's to say?
For a hill men
would kill, why? They do not know
Suffered wounds
test their pride
Men of five,
still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane
from the pain that they surely know
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
Take a look
to the sky just before you die
It is the last
time you will
Blackened roar
massive roar fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal
fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now,
are his eyes, to this mystery
He hears the
silence so loud
Crack of dawn,
all is gone except the will to be
Now they see
what will be, blinded eyes to see
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
Drifting further
every day
Getting lost
within myself
Nothing matters
no one else
I have lost
the will to live
Simply nothing
more to give
There is nothing
more for me
Need the end
to set me free
Things are not
what they used to be
Missing one
inside of me
Deathly lost,
this can't be real
Cannot stand
this hell I feel
Emptiness is
filling me
To the point
of agony
Growing darkness
taking dawn
I was me, but
now he's gone
No one but me
can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't
think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems
as though it never existed
Death Greets
me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Woken up, I'm
still locked in this shell
Frozen soul,
frozen down to the core
Break the ice,
I can't take anymore
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under ice
Crystallized,
as I lay here and rest
Eyes of glass
stare directly at death
From deep sleep
I have broken away
No one knows,
no one hears what I say
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under ice
Scream from
my soul
Fate, mystified
Hell, forever
more
No release from
my cryonic state
What is this?
I've been stricken by fate
Wrapped up tight,
cannot move, can't break free
Hand of doom
has a tight grip on me
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under ice
I know I'm my
best friend
No one cares,
but I'm so much stronger
I'll fight until
the end
To escape from
the true false world
Undamaged destiny
Can't get caught
in the endless circle
Ring of stupidity
Out for my own, out to be free
One with my mind, they just can't see
No need to hear things that they say
Life is for my own to live my own way
Rape my mind
and destroy my feelings
Don't tell me
what to do
I don't care
now, 'cause I'm on my side
And I can see
through you
Feed my brain
with your so called standards
Who says that
I ain't right
Break away from
your common fashion
See through
your blurry sight
One with my mind, they just can't see
No need to hear things that they say
Life is for my own to live my own way
See them try
to bring the hammer down
No damn chains
can hold me to the ground
(repeat)
Hebrews born
to serve, to the pharaoh
Heed
To his every
word, live in fear
Faith
Of the unknown
one, the deliverer
Wait
Something must
be done, four hundred years
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Let my people
go, land of goshen
Go
I will be with
thee, bush of fire
Blood
Running red
and strong, down the nile
Plague
Darkness three
days long, hail to fire
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
I creep across
the land
Killing first
born man
Die by my hand
I creep across
the land
Killing first
born man
I
Rule the midnite
air the destroyer
Born
I shall soon
be there, deadly mass
I
Creep the steps
and floor final darkness
Blood
Lambs blood
painted door, I shall pass
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
