For the Love of Metal

Bring me to the gates of hell Cause there's a debt to pay Bring me all your worthless leaders Predators will soon be prey They won't say it, but lies are a business too It's time to play it, the game has come for me and you Me and you Start to walk out on deceit The truth appears Sometimes the road less traveled Is paved with innocent tears Their greed is never ending The tide will soon be turning It's beyond all comprehension Foundations crumble, the sky is churning They won't say it, but lies are a business too It's time to play it, the game has come for me and you Me and you They won't say it, but lies are a business too It's time to play it, the game has come... They won't say it, but lies are a business too It's time to play it, the game has come for... For me and you

I gave you yesterday Tomorrow's no concern I gave you yesterday You can keep it Because today is mine Time is envious and running away Now let's live it up while we may Rather at once our moments devour Let's all languish in the sound of power Feel the rising tones Taste the dust we kick up with friends Louder it stings our ears For now we don't hurt or fear I gave you yesterday I don't want it back I gave you yesterday Tomorrow's no concern I gave you yesterday You can take it I don't need it back I gave you yesterday Tomorrow's no concern I gave you yesterday I don't need it Because today is mine

There is despair coming off ytour skin I can smell it when you say my name You love to gamble but you never win You've lost it all, the end begins Your life and death are on in the same There's nothing left but all your sins The wind is screaming It's screaming your name It sounds like fear Your death rattle is all that remains No one will shed a tear I am a force of nature Destroy your great design I am the warning You will never heed in time Every whisper of doubt I am the hurricane Every breath of grief I am the hurricane Every statement of disbelief I am the hurricane I leave you all in my wake Sign of the cross just before your demise You're no believer, or have you forgot? I'm the secret that you won't need to hide It's too late to ask for help from God The wind is screaming It's screaming your name It sounds like fear Your death rattle is all that remains No one will shed a tear I am a force of nature Destroy your great design I am the warning You will never heed in time Every whisper of doubt I am the hurricane Every breath of grief I am the hurricane Every statement of disbelief I am the hurricane I leave you all in my wake I am the hurricane I am, I am the hurricane I'm the hurricane I am, I am the hurricane I'm the hurricane Every whisper of doubt I am the hurricane Every breath of grief I am the hurricane Every statement of disbelief I am the hurricane I leave you all in my wake I am the hurricane

Take a look as I walk tall Stand up against you all Attempts that I forestall There's no breaking me Try but I won't bend Mock scorn and condescend Hard work is never done That's all I believe No talk just action now Push forward don't care how Fight till the end it's how I'm made American made Tired as I sweat and bleed I am a different breed Steadfast in my beliefs I know I'll always be No talk just action now Push forward don't care how Fight till the end it's how I'm made American made Forged hard and won't back down Live for this action now Just try to test me I'll remain American made American made American made American made American No talk just action now Push forward don't care how Fight till the end it's how I'm made American made No talk just action now Push forward don't care how Fight till the end it's how I'm made American made Forged hard and won't back down Live for this action now Just try to test me I'll remain American made American made American made American made American made

Faced with mortality, questioning my sanity Images that bring me my to knees The weight of the world on top Have I given all I've got Just when I thought I'd seen it all Death leaves a sorrow no one can heal Love leaves a memory no one can steal Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready, ready, ready, ready Praise those who live their truth Step forward where they break through Forge a path with something real to prove Death leaves a sorrow no one can heal Love leaves a memory no one can steal Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready, ready Here for the pain Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready, ready (I'm ready) Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready, ready, ready, ready (I'm ready) Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready, ready (I'm ready) Maybe we're just here for the pain Then I'm ready, ready, ready

With torn and bleeding smiles we move on And mouth all different kinds of broken promises Why should our days be spent in denial While counting our faults and ripping our hearts out Let them only see us, while we wear the mask that hides Never let them know us, as the tortured soul inside Feel the hate beneath our feet before the longest mile Say the words we can't forget, or chose to say otherwise We wear the mask The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies Behind our doors the time cannot be whisked away Crashing and burning, leaving hints of darkness Deep within their withered faces, lines are sunken in We say we're fine behind the mask We say we're fine, why do you ask We wear the mask The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies Hear the words they speak and they don't hear the call Looking forward nothing more to feel at all Until the day they wake and see the damage caused The longest mile is the step you never take at all We wear the mask We wear the mask We wear the mask We wear the mask The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies The face you see is not our own It hides our tears and shades our eyes The heart you touched has since grown cold We wear the mask that grins and lies

The rain is nothing to fear When you become the storm Suffering is to speak the truth and I'm not willing to hear Working harder than before with nothing to show but tears With only time, its hands to help, it's the hurt that we must let go Pardoned, forgiven for their sins and what they put us through The rain is nothing to fear When you become the storm We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher Oh! Suffer all the innocent who say that they don't belong Can't find the strength that they deserve, give them the ones who do not wrong I know we weren't mean for love, time to break down every single door And it keeps us trapped and torn I know we are more than this, no more time to reminisce, it's war And it's right outside our doors The rain is nothing to fear When you become the storm We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher Sometimes we suffer The time we get tougher Sometimes we suffer Sometimes we get tougher We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher (Become the storm) We are not here to suffer But what we get through makes us tougher Become the storm!

You want a perfect ending It's so hard to attain And we've all got to learn Something the hardest way The answers are not always there The stories are not always clear Not all of us give Not all of us take Not all will truly live Or be there when our sights regained Step forward into the blinding light If you dare look back it's your last time We've all learned something Step forward into the blinding light If you dare look back it's your last time It's your last time We've all learned something The hard way The hardest way We've all learned something The hard way The hardest way This is about not knowing And always having to change Making the best of moments That will test our strength Without knowing what happens next With courage taking the first step Not all of us hate Not all of us love Not all will live to see Just what our hardest days become Step forward into the blinding fight If you dare look back it's your last time We've all learned something Step forward into the blinding light If you dare look back it's your last time It's your last time We've all learned something The hard way The hardest way We've all learned something The hard way The hardest way The time is here Now we all must learn The lessons learned The scars we earned Are not always all the ones we chose to The bridges burned The pages turned They're not always the ones that we learn from We've all learned something The hard way The hardest way We've all learned something The hard way The hardest way

You try to destroy my truth While comforted by a lie Before now nothing was done One too many times I'm going to a place I hope you never find Dead hearts can't be broken But I'm sure you'll try And again my love runs red Touch inside there's nothing left We all hear what they say What they say Heavy has no weight Like words filled with hate We all hear what they say What they say As hard as it can be Love thy enemy You try to deny your past While living in that time Your true colors show themselves I see what you imply My hands are bound again But is it you that's tied Dead hearts can't be broken But I'm sure you'll try Sure you'll try We all hear what they say What they say Heavy has no weight Like words filled with hate We all hear what they say What they say As hard as it can be Love thy enemy I am redeemer with lifeless eyes A guardian angel you've come to despise I am the words of hurt said with such haste I am the violence you silently face We all hear what they say What they say Heavy has no weight Like words filled with hate We all hear what they say What they say Heavy has no weight Like words filled with hate We all hear what they say What they say As hard as it can be Love thy enemy

I once was under the blade I was once the last in line I was the victim of changes You can't stop rock n' roll, it is my life This is my painkiller My obsession runs deep For the love of all things loud United worldwide fills me with pride I do it for the love I release my hate Set my soul ablaze For the love of metal For the love of metal (metal) As long as I can remember It's been there for me I run through the hills And over the mountain for victory I've been south of heaven I don't wanna burn in hell I've stood strong throughout the years Live to tell I was born to raise hell I do it for the love I release my hate Set our souls ablaze We do it for the love We release our hate When we take the stage For the love of metal For the love of metal (metal) I do it for the love of metal There's no other way I do it for the love of metal This is my escape I do it for the love I release my hate I feel its strength... Unleash the metal! We are all fucking metal! I do it for the love of metal There's no other way I do it for the love of metal It gives me strength
