Trust
Lost in a dream 
Nothing is what it seems 
Searching my head 
For the words that you said 

Tears filled my eyes 
As we said our last goodbyes 
The sad scene replays 
Of you walking away 

Chorus 
My body aches from mistakes 
Betrayed by lust 
We lied to each other so much 
That in nothing we trust 

Time and again 
She repeats let's be friends 
I smile and say yes 
Another truth bends, 
I must confess 

I try to let go, but I know 
We'll never end 'til we're dust 
We lied to each other again 
But I wish I could trust 

Chorus 
My body aches from mustakes 
Betrayed by lust 
We lied to each other so much 
That in nothing we trust 
God help me please, on my knees 
Betrayed by lust 
We lied to each other so much 
Now there's nothing we trust 

Spoken 
How could this be happening to me 
I'm lying when I say, “Trust me” 
I can't believe this is true 
Trust hurts 
Why does trust equal suffering?

Solo 

Chorus 

My body aches from mistakes 
Betrayed by lust 
We lied to each other so much 
That in nothing we trust 
God help me please, on my knees 
Betrayed by lust 
We lied to each other so much 

Absolutely nothing we trust

Almost honest
I lied just a little 
When I said I need you 
You stretched the truth 
When you said that you knew 
Just can't believe it 
There's nothing to say 
I was almost honest, almost 

Chorus 
Living alone, can't stand this place 
It's four in the morning and I still see your face 

I was nearly pure 
When I said I loved you 
You were semi-sincere 
You said I'd bleed for you 
We were kind of candid 
Now you've gone away 
You were almost honest, almost 
  

Chorus 
Living alone, falling from grace 
I want to be alone, but there's just empty space 
I can't face tomorow, now you're not coming back 
Walked off in the night, and just left me the tracks 

I question your call by the tone of your voice 
I know I should hang up but I don't have a choice 
It happened that night when you told me to go 
Don't ask who's to blame, I don't know 

Solo 

Chorus 

Almost, almost honest 
Almost, I was almost honest 
(Repeat)

Use the man
I heard somebody fixed today 
There was no last goodbyes to say 
His will to live ran out 
I heard somebody turned to dust 

Looking back at what he left 
A list of plans and photographs 
Songs that never will be sung 
These are the things he won't get done 

Chorus 
I've seen the man use the needle (seen the needle use the man) 
I've seen them crawl from the cradle (to the gutter on their hands) 
The fight a war but it's fatal (it's so hard to understand) 
I've seen the man use the needle (seen the needle use the man) 

Just one shot to say goodbye 
One last taste to mourn and cry 
Scores and shoots, the lights go dim 
Just one shot to do him in 

He hangs his head and wonders why 
Why the monkey only lies 
But pay the pauper, he did choose 
He hing his head inside the noose 

Chorus 
I've seen the man use the needle (seen the needle use the man) 
I've seen them crawl from the cradle (to the coffin on their hands) 
They fight a war but it's fatal (it's so hard to understand) 
I've seen the man use the needle (seen the needle in his hands) 
Cryptic writing on the wall (the beginning of the end) 
I've seen myself use the needle (seen the needle in my hands) 

I've seen the man use the needle (seen the needle use the man) 
I've seen them crawl from the cradle (to the coffin on their hands) 
They fight a war but it's fatal (it's so hard to understand) 
 I've seen myself use the needle (seen the needle in my hands) 

In my hands 
(Repeat twice)

Mastermind
Anonymous existence, rendered useless to mankind 
Destroy the logic volume in the confines of the mind 
Enmassed and purposeless, marching in a perfect line 
Neo-neuro torture, mental meltdoen, a heinous crime 

Chorus 
Mastermind (I tell you waht to think) 
Mastermind (I tell you what you need) 
Mastermind (I tell you what to feel) 

Invade the core of souls to wipe the lives away 
Design vacant beings, welcome the inhuman race 
Encrypted horrow codes, directive psyche overwrite 
Processing brains to pabulum, 
Delete and format living drives 

Chorus 
Mastermind (I tell you waht to think) 
Mastermind (I tell you what you need) 
Mastermind (I tell you what to feel) 
Mastermind (I tell you what's real) 

Solo 

Hail to the power age, lest the viral hour comes 
Raise the flag of voltage, bow to circuitry unknown 
Kneel before the processor, lords of static laugh 
Electrons in submissing, you must know who I am 

I tell you what to think 
I don't care what you thought 
I tell you what to get 
I don't care what you got 
(Repeat) 

Chorus 
Mastermind (I tell you waht to think) 
Mastermind (I tell you what you need) 
Mastermind (I tell you what to feel) 
Mastermind

the disintegrators
The slayer's arrived 
On a black horse of steel 
Trouble is coming 
Hell on two wheels 

Hide in the shadows 
Awaiting defeat 
Or live by the sword 
And choose to be free 

We say retribution 
We say vengeance is bliss 
We say revolution 
With a cast iron first 

Pre-Chorus 
Coming down the road 
Watching every move 
Kicking in the doors 
Taking what we choose 

Chorus 
Anarchy's coming to town 
A fiery invader 
Burning it down to the ground 
The Disintegrators 

We say retribution 
We say vengeance is bliss 
We say revolution 
With a cast iron first 

Pre-Chorus

Chorus 

Anarchy's coming 
Here it comes 
Burning it down to the ground 
The Disintegrators

I'll get even
I'm lonely and abandoned 
Washed up, left for dead 
I'm lost inside the desert 
Of ever word you said 

Like a nuclear reactor 
or TNT 
I'm thinking about the times 
When you lied to me 

All the innuendo 
Caught up on your hook 
I was just a name 
In your little black book 

Chorus 
Ah, I'll get even with you 
Ah, I'll get even with you 

I'm bitter and I'm twisted 
I haven't slept in days 
I'm lonely and I'm angry 
I can't make it go away 

I'm like a bomb that's ticking, 
I got voices in my head 
I got a doll with needles in 
Wishing you were dead 

I'll get you back somehow 
That's what I'm gonna do 
I'll get you back somehow 
Your nightmare coming true 

Chorus 
Ah, I'll get even with you 
Ah, That's what I'm gonna do 
Gonna get even with you 
Ah, I'll get even with you 

You better look behind you 
'Cause there I'm gonna be 
I'll be standing in the shadows 
With who I used to be 

He's slightly schizophrenic 
Me and me and me and me agree 
That you are gonna pay 
For what you did to me 

Ah, I'll get even with you 
Ah, I'll get even with you 

Chorus 
Ah, I'll get even with you 
Gonna get even with you 
Ah, that's what I'm gonna do 
I'm gonna... 
Ah, I'll get even with you

Sin
He had an unfamiliar face 
Complete life in disarray 
A simple man, power drunk 
No worries of living, no more anything 

Chorus 
Deep inside I've seen it rise 
Actions progress to no end 
Mirror, mirror please look inside 
Do you see that reasons that we sin 

Not one to be forgot 
Spoiled rotten, so they say 
Once burned, forever marked 
Hurt by just a few but so many have to pay 

Chorus 

Pressure coming down 
Down on me, gonna break 
Broken fingernails 
Digging in, scratch my face 

Nervous, like a car 
Gonna jump through my skin 
Shadows on the wall 
Stretching out, grope for me 

(Reasons) Deep in me 
(Reasons) Let me be 
(Reasons) Let me bleed 
(Reasons) Set me free 
(Reasons) Set me free 
(Reasons) Set me free 
(Reasons) The reasons that we sin

A secret place
There's a secret place I like to go 
Everyone is there but their face don't show 
If you get inside you can't get out 
There's no coming back, I hear them shout 

Chorus 
Welcome to my hide away, my secret place 
How I arrived I can't explain 
You're welcome to, if you want to stay 
But everyone just runs away 

There's a secret place I like to go 
Everyone is there but their face don't show 
If you get inside you can't get out 
There's no coming back, I hear them shout 

Let me in, get me out 
Can't do more then twist and shout 
Lost my soul without a trace 
Found it again in my secret place 

Let me in, get me out 
Can't do more then twist and shout 
Lost my soul without a trace 
In discrace 

I hide from those that try to find me 
Scary things that's right behind me 
I lost myself, I must confess 
I can't explain how I got this mess 

Chorus 

My secret place (There's a secret place) 
My secret place (There's a secret place, I like to go) 
My secret place (There's a secret place) 
Just runs away 
My secret place

Have cool, will travel
Mamas pack their lunches, kiddies pack their guns 
Wishing it will go away, but nothing's getting done 
A shot heard 'round the world, when a mother's baby dies 
We the people, point our fingers, blame and wonder why 

Face it and fight or turn high tail and run 
'Til it comes back again just like the rising sun 
Say they do all they can, it's just another lie 
The answer's plain to see, nobody wants to try 

Chorus 
There's no recess and no rules in the school of life 
If you listen very closely you'll see what it's like 
Have cool, will travel 

Solo 

Chorus 
There's no recess and no rules in the school of life 
If you listen very closely you'll see what it's like 

Tell myself it ain't true, they just cannot see 
Grown up or sewn up, the medicine's worse then the disease 
I have cool, will travel 
Here we go 
Have cool, will travel

She-wolf
The mother of all that is evil 
Her lips are poisonous venom 
Wicked temptress knows how to please 
The priestess roars, “Get down on your knees” 

The rite of the praying mantis 
Kiss the bones of the enchantress 
Spellbound searching through the night 
A howling man surrenders the fight 

Chorus 
One look in her lusting eyes 
Savage fear in you will rise 
Teeth of terror sinking in 
The bite of the she-wolf 
 One look in her lusting eyes 
Savage fear in you will rise 
Teeth of terror sinking in 
The bite of the she-wolf 

My desires of flesh obey me 
The lioness will enslave me 
Another heart beat than my own 
The sound of claws on cobblestone, I'm stoned 

Chorus 

Beware what stalks you in the night 
Beware the she-wolf and her bite 
Her mystic lips tell only lies 

Beware what stalks you in the night 
Beware the she-wolf and her bite 
Her hidden will to kill in disguise

Vortex
Internal combustion 
Multiple personalities 
Terror inside of me 
A mask of silent agony 

Chorus 
Curse the falling rain 
The vortex of pain 

As medieval as Merlin 
A pact for power was made 
Lucifer in transition 
It's time the price was paid 

Chorus 
Searching the domain 
The vortex of pain 

A telestic message 
Writtin in torment 
Howl out dirges 
Like the horns of Jericho 
Distorted faces 
Writhing in rage 
Walls of purgatory 
Tumble down 
Endless death 
The jewls of a crown

FFF
Looking for a cure within the human race 
Eliminate the poor, how much longer will it take 
Burning up the tents of the rank and file 
Exterminate their lives, crack a demon smile 

Crushing down, caving in our will to live 
Getting rid of man's mistakes 
To take a lost life, lock it up, break it down 
How much more can we take 

Chorus 
Fight for freedom, fight authority 
Fight for anything, my country 'tis of me 

Cry for absolution, it's not the end for me 
A last minute pardon, one final reprieve 
Resist the war maching, don't get in its path 
Fight to die a free man and reap the aftermath 

Crushing down, caving in our will to live 
Getting rid of man's mistakes 
To take a lost life, lock it up, break it down 
I don't know how much more I can take 

Chorus 
  

Fight!... 

Fight for freedom, fight authority 
Fight for anything, it's my country 
Fight for freedom, fight authority 
Fight for anything, my country 'tis of me
