I'm a supersonic death machine - I'm tearing out your eyes The alpha and omega - it's over with before you realize My word is law, I'm in control Don't dare defy me or heads will roll You're not the first to test my will Better than you have tried, to say the least Taming the beast - (defeat the beast) Sent down from above - brought forth from below All my hatred borne of love - first you come, then you go I'm a megasonic deity - your life is in my hands High on this mountain - dominion reigns and spreads Across the land I'm iron willed and resolute I'm in control, it's absolute You're not the first to test my will Better than you have tried, to say the least Taming the beast - (defeat the beast) Taming the beast - prepare the feast Taming the beast - there's no taming the beast Summon the priest - there's no taming the beast Taming the beast

Now it's time to leave this world Time to leave behind this sea of pain You don't know that it's not over There's a place that you might go with fiery rain I pray your soul be saved Welcome friends Did you live a good life or did you only hurt the ones you love Did you ever wonder if there's really someone watching from above Did you give alliance to something dark and evil Did you show defiance to all things good and pure Chose the life, you lived it in hedonistic glory And now it's all but ended - you'll feel the flames, you'll burn Floodgates of hell Did you live a bad life - and did you ever love the ones you loathe Did you ever wonder if there's someone really scheming down below Did you turn your back on selfless contemplation Were you on the track to make things right within You chose the life, you lived it - now face the consequences Now it's all but ended - comes time to pay the price Down, down, down - you're soul you had to sell it Down, down, down - you're going straight to Floodgates of hell Did you give alliance to something dark and evil Did you show defiance to all things good and pure You chose the life, you lived it - now face the consequences Now it's all but ended - you'll feel the flames, you'll bur Floodgates of hell

Somewhere deep inside you know, you know you've lost control Someone else is pushing buttons to manipulate your soul Fame and fortune were not enough to satisfy your taste Now you're sitting home with your addiction - your life a bitter waste When will it end - you're gonna die - don't even care When will it end this burning cross you bear Mind slave Paranoid and hearing voices whispering in your head Another day of charming life - you're wishing you were dead When will you realize just who's running who (you) Look into the mirror now and tell me what you'll do Mother Mary can't save you now - she can't even save Can't even save herself or her son You're sinking to the bottom of the sea Your ego is really bringing me down You need to take control - mindslave (slave!) Before you lose your soul mindslave It's burning in your brain - mindslave - driving you insane Paranoid and hearing voices whispering in your head Another day of charming life - you're wishing you were dead When will you realize just who's running who (you) Look into the mirror now and tell me what you'll do Mindslave - it's burning in your brain - mindslave (slave!) Driving you, driving you insane - mindslave (slave!) You need to take control mindslave It's driving you, driving you fucking insane (slave!)

Sitting on his mighty throne with grandiose delusions Powermad with hungry eyes his mind spins in confusion In his world he does no wrong with no intent for change He's living in a self made hell of madness - he's deranged Can you hear that sound - as one the people cry "Please no more!" His magic snares you like a web - you're drawn into his spell At first it seems as though you've won but now it's only hell Reality has no real place in his twisted soul The carnage he's inflicted on us has taken its great toll Swimming in your head you know - you know you're doing wrong Is it worth the price you'll pay - you're hearing karma's song loud and clear You're the king of nothing (king of nothing) Oh the (your) kingdom's crumbling down King of nothing - (now) you've lost your golden crown Morning dawn is breaking, it claims another day There's a calm before the storm Peering through the sun's bright rays The gallows welcome you with death's anticipation Come now, accept your fate - it's eternal damnation Swimming in your head you know - you know you're doing wrong Is it worth the price you'll pay - you're hearing karma's song loud and clear You're the king of nothing (king of nothing) Oh your kingdom's crumbling down King of nothing - now you've lost your golden crown King of nothing (king of nothing) People sick of all your lies You're the king of nothing - your legend now it dies You're the king of nothing (king of nothing) Oh the tears of joy and pain King of nothing - it's the end of your black reign

I've been accused though I'm an innocent man They want to take my life for something I've not done The hangman lies - can't you see there's no proof The hangman lies - hangman Black hood in place though I'm an innocent man Mistakes I've made - my life has all but come undone The hangman lies - can't you see there's no proof The hangman lies - hangman All I need is just one chance To prove my innocence I never dreamed it would end like this God are you out there I stand before you now a broken man Executioner's noose around my neck I feel familiar eyes smoldering hatred at the sight of me It's time to own up to what I've done 'Cause the hangman told the truth

Out here alone - these shades of grey my only friend Ooh I've lost everything - I see what loneliness can bring I've come full circle I had it all - always standing tall Thought I'd never fall, then I ran right into the wall I followed my dream until one day it seemed Things were breaking down - bad times all around Looks like we're good to go - (go!) I took the blame, got on the plane And flew as far away as Spain No one can stop me, don't bother to try I'm winning You pushed away from me it's plain to see No heart, no sympathy, no choice I set you free You cut me down - I went straight underground But I turned things around and I'll never be your clown Again I took the blame, got on the plane and flew away (I'm doing it again) I've come full circle I've come full circle (with you) (again) Out here alone (I'm doing it again) I've come full circle I've come full circle (with you) (again)

Hey - I know what you've done I'm no longer having fun You come face to face with my loaded gun You'll be lucky if you live to see the sun come up You like to play the politician You think you're much better than everyone else You're trying your best to ruin my reputation You'll be lucky if I get you in your sleep - get up All your lies - unearthed All your bullshit - unearthed The real you - (unearthed) Why you puttin' on a show for all your friends Stop - no matter how it starts it's gotta end You're trying to ruin my reputation You'll get lucky if I kill you in your sleep - come on All your lies - unearthed All your bullshit - unearthed The real you - (unearthed) Incense me with innocence - asking you an accident Sensing things I visualized - conjuring up your evil lies Unearthed You've got everybody fooled - unearthed (But) I know of all those things you do - unearthed All for show, it's all a game - unearthed (I'll) put that fucking bitch to shame - unearthed

The world stopped turning today The sky is so black and so grey Angels crying tears to fill the sea Nevermore will he be Hurt I speed off late into the light Breathless I turn up the night One last cut straight through the heart Lonely words can tear apart all heaven or this hell Slip away or try to stay - evil eyes lead me astray You're a legend - so long, my legend lost I'm fallen off the edges of the world Our banners, bible black, now lay unfurled Faces in the window peer inside Knowing that a part of us has died Rainbows guide us through the dark The last in line we've lost the spark Left naked in the rain Too late we seek the wishing well Of silver mountains he would tell My legend can't be, his legend won't be lost The sign of the southern cross will see him through Master of insanity - leaving it a mystery In heaven and in hell Too late we seek the wishing well On silver mountains I would tell His legend lives on, my love, My legend lost

Do you ever wonder where you go when you die To the sky - if it's all a lie why make it up Or go down underground - up - lost or found - up Try and make your escape into the hands of fate Wait - you don't know where you're gonna go Even if they say so - go - 'cause you don't know - no They only read it in a book - take a look And you'll know they mistook all I'm saying is true Your soul is heavy yet your mind is weak Listen to me, hear what I speak Light - darkness - purity - good - evil I am godless Two sides of life and you're cheating wife Who is always going down when you're not around? Uh - talking to the priest and the devil - go east On the level - feast on the beveled edge Of her very pledge - and she's hedging her bets While she's buying corvettes with the money that you made Maybe she'd have stayed if you'd got paid Just enough to get laid by the milk maid Oh I see - you sinners ain't afraid of nothin' You've accepted your blind belief Still you struggle with wrong or right Lack of proof and no evidence In your mind you still think and fight Light - darkness - purity - good Evil - sinner - holy - devil I am godless What do you do when you feel so all alone What do you do when you know you're on your own What do you see in your mind when you're confused Now that you're here you'll know just what to do Light - darkness - purity - good Evil - sinner - holy - priest I am godless
