| For the love of pain |
Hunger of a tyrant
The murder of logic
Decayed sense of self
The harmony of pain
Discorded melodies
Eroded memories
Deception of the curse
Addicted suffering
The affliction that it brings
Addicted suffering
Commander from hell
Emaciated entity
Companion in my mind
The afflication of contentment
The ecstasy of agony
The circularity
A dehydrated corpse
Will be my destiny
For the love of pain
My twisted pleasure reigns
For the illusions of control
When will we ever see the light?
The fear of constellation
Contorted by the lies
Enslaved by this curse
That breathes inside my soul
In the depths of this darkened world
All these lies, we can't control
I've seen the world explode
In my nightmares, watch them die
Hunger of a tyrant
The murder of logic
Decayed sense of self
The harmony of pain
Discorded melodies
Eroded memories
Deception of the curse
For the love of pain
My twisted pleasure reigns
For the illusions of control
When will we ever see the light?
In the depths of this darkened world
All these lies, we can't control
I've seen the world explode
In my nightmares, watch them die

| Shadow people |
Black Mass, it haunts and follows
Demonized, realize what's holding on
Hides inside the shadows
Terrorized by sleep paralysis
Outstretched inside the darkness
Holds me down tight inside my bed
Scream shattering the silence
Can't shake escape the entity
Humanoid supernatural forces
Pray to God to save you now
[Solo: Peterson]
Terrified don't look into their eyes
Obsessed they haunt forever
Trapped inside they're coming
Traumatized apparitions above your bed
It thrives inside your conscience
Cry out in fear yet no one comes
Stay awake try to escape
Or you'll wake up dead
Humanoid supernatural forces
Pray to God to save you now
Darkness has a memory and does not forget
Enveloping shadows in a world of regret
Unstoppable energy is bursting through
The hand of doom has an evil grip on you
They have no faces
Hallucinations
These apparitions
Will take your soul away
There's no God to save you now
[Solo: Skolnick]
Within this dream world
Where the shadows dwell
The smell of burning flesh
A never-ending hell
Scream, like it's your final breath
Sleep, you close your eyes, but you'll never rest
[Solo: Peterson]
Stay away
Stay away from the shadow people
Saying prayers won't save you now

| Meant to be |
Please tell me why
There's something wrong today
Cold and alone
Why do I feel this way
How can this be
There's nothing left for me?
Damage becomes
Destined for tragedy
Our time has gone
We thought it just begun
The air we breathe
Is choking you and me
And now that hope is lost
Our love begins to rust
There's nothing left to say
A toxic fantasy
What went wrong, who's to say?
We drift so far away
I know our love is lost, and still, we carry on
You took the best of me
You're just a memory
We tried at every cost, and still, we carry on
Our time has come
Was it fate?
We were always meant to be
Open your eyes
When will you realize
Our future is malformed
We fight to carry on
Tell me what we must do
Let me show you the truth
Have you heard a word I've said?
Everything is dead
Our time has come
Was it fate?
We were always meant to be
What went wrong, who's to say?
We drift so far away
I know our love is lost, and still, we carry on
You took the best of me
You're just a memory
We tried at every cost, and still, we carry on
Our time has come
Was it fate?
We were always meant to be
[Solo: Skolnick]
There's no more sorrow now
Love is all we need
We made it work somehow
We were always meant to be

| High noon |
High noon, death soon
High noon, death soon
Drinking his whiskey in a dirty saloon
Last breath, a duel to the death
See who is faster, the ultimate test
He swings open the door
Another challenge unfolds
One more notch on his gun
The life that a gunslinger lives
Night heat, blood on the street
Another poor victim who reached for his piece
Death toll, sound of the bell
Pulling the trigger
The tower strikes twelve
He swings open the door
Another challenge unfolds
One more notch on his gun
The life that a gunslinger lives
Thoughts of a funeral pyre
Bullets ring, let them fly
Bullets ring
Bullets ring, people die
Bullets ring
How much more can he take?
He gets drunk as he wallows (Wallows)
Will he ever succumb to his fate?
The next gunslinger's faster (Faster)
Who is faster (Faster), faster than me?
There is always one faster (Faster)
The one he can't beat
[Solo: Peterson]
[Solo: Skolnick]
East, west, they challenge the best
The bounty gets paid with a pound of their flesh
Night falls, the vultures, they call
Waiting for supper as the next outlaw falls
He swings open the door
Another challenge unfolds
One more notch on his gun
The life that a gunslinger lives
As the blood hits the floor
One more walks through the door
As the trigger gets pulled
The life of the gunslinger ends
Bullets ring, let them fly
Bullets ring
Bullets ring, people die
Bullets ring

| Witch hunt |
So redundant and viciously obscene
How the rhetoric has come into the light
All involved, to hold accountability
For all of those who been a disgrace
The vile content that roams across the universe
But never seems to play by the rules
Interrogation falsely accused
This committee is all made up of fools
Execution, their authority
Investigating all those dirty deeds
Insinuating stealing liberties
Again, and again (Again)
Subjugation and no end in sight
It turns into a one-sided fight
The moral compass, the ethics involved
Seems to be directed like a firing squad
Execution, their authority
Investigating all those dirty deeds
Insinuating stealing liberties
Again, and again
They are so sadistic in this forsaken town
As the powers shifting with a smiling frown
See the witches burn in his witch hunters crown
Burn and drown
All the witches are hunted down
Burn and drown
All the witches are hunted down
[Solo: Skolnick]

| Nature of the beast |
So long, it's on with the show
Forever wild with no place to go
Born to lose, placing a bet
You're all in and you have no regrets
Midnight, too blind to see
Another game in the land of the free
Spin the wheel, always on black
Play for keeps, try to win back that stack
It's just the nature of the beast
Here in the city of sin
The nature of the beast
On a losing streak again
Too late, you're never gonna fold
You're going down with an ace in the hole
Against the odds, you play another hand
You double down and you lose another grand
Bank roll in the palm of your hand
You lose it all and you don't give a damn
Wake up, why can't you see
The ace of spades is the card that you need
It's just the nature of the beast
Here in the city of sin
The nature of the beast
You're never gonna win
[Solo: Skolnick]
It's just the nature of the beast
Here in the city of sin
The nature of the beast
You're never gonna win
The nature of the beast
You're never gonna win
The nature of the beast
Will you ever win?

| Room 117 |
[Solo: Peterson]
Surrounded by insanity, screams, they go unheard
There's no humanity, thoughts of life seem so absurd
You're praying for a painless death, the madness does not cease
Medication majesty to bring me some relief
Machines help you breathe, you're trapped inside a dream
You will never leave Room 117
Traumatized by memories, where am I today?
Eyes alight, I never sleep, just keep on twisting in this grave
Searching for the sanctity, my dignity's destroyed
There's no easing of the pain when you're entering the void
You will never leave Room 117
You don't wanna be in Room 117
I'm feeling lonely, I'm feeling helpless
I see my world now wither away
I hear a voice call, hallucinations
Through darkness reveals the light
I'm feeling anxious, I'm feeling helpless
I see my world now wither away
I hear a voice call, hallucinations
I found comfort in his embrace
And now I'm free from this world
I am free
[Solo: Skolnick]
Spirits roam the corridors, sedated walking dead
There is no comfort to be found in isolation beds
When you hear the sirens ring, the angels sing, the end is near
When you see a blinding light shining down the hall
You will never leave Room 117
Stay away from Room 117

| Havana syndrome |
A strike that pierced my mind is now tearing up my brain
Sudden loss of concentration, I will never be the same
A silent wound keeps taunting me for the answer I can't find
I can no longer see, am I going blind?
What the hell is wrong with me, and there's nothing I can do
Invisible hands are choking me, driving me insane
Codename: Medusa, microwaved my brain
Phantom pains are haunting me, I'm tortured all the time
The silent enemy I seek, but I can't find
What the hell is going on, tell me what more can I do?
(Cause I'm trapped in my own mind)
'Cause it keeps on coming on until there's nothing left of me
A sonic devastation hollowed out my mind
Trials and tribulations until the day I die
Don't wanna die!
[Solo: Skolnick]
I see the sorrow left behind, and nothing shall remain
Silent insanity, will I ever be the same?
A life of agony hides the answer I can't find
No longer can I feel, we're running out of time
What the hell is going on, tell me, what more can I do?
(Will my pain ever end?)
'Cause it keeps on coming on when there's nothing I can do
A sonic devastation hollowed out my mind
Trials and tribulations until the day I die
Just let me die!

| Para bellum |
[Solo: Skolnick]
Eyes of a serpent, stare at the venomous past
Spitting their lies while they keep on the course of the path
Anguish and pain, broadcasting hatred unclear
Cloak of deception hides voices of fear
[Solo: Peterson]
Minions, they gather, nothing is holding them back
Climbing the walls for which they were sent to attack
Breaking the lines, smashing the door, lock the gates
A radical mob imposing their will and their hate
Unknowing, forgoing, what does out future hold?
Controlling, disowning, our rights cannot be sold
People shout "You will never keep us out!"
Para Bellum
Para Bellum
Prepare for war
Para Bellum
What are you fighting for?
[Solo: Peterson]
Eyes of a serpent, stare at the venomous past
Spitting their lies under the spell that's been cast
Anguish and pain, broadcasting hatred unclear
Cloak of deception, whispering voices of fear
Unknowing, forgoing, what does out future hold?
Controlling, disowning, our rights cannot be sold
People shout "You will never keep us out!"
Para Bellum
Para Bellum
Prepare for war
Para Bellum
What are you fighting for?
Para Bellum
We can't fight no more
[Solo: Skolnick]
