Follow the Deadlights

Shot down, get up Now walk my way And leave your body lying I've come to take your ghost away Now in your time of dying The fog is closing in Deathbell's tolling Shot down, get up Now walk my way The ravens black are sighing The fog is closing in Feel my touch so cold Melts away your skin Your blood is freezing Look beyond the veil Tread the path unknown Ride a horse so pale And dance with the skeletons The fog, it draws you in Feel your body float upon the flesh of sin And the worms are feasting Look beyond the veil Tread the path unknown Ride a horse so pale And dance with the skeletons Sleep beyond the veil Carve your name in stone forever I'll walk over your grave And dance with the skeletons Let's dance!

The line is drawn The battle is on (I break my chains and escape my cage) The tide has turned Your time is done (I break my chains and release my rage) The vilest victims make the most vicious villains Justifying acts of violence while they vilify the virtuous You bleed the soul You drain the rivers We'll have none of this Done with this terrible lie Where the needs of the many are downed By the needs of the one We will rise like lions We built your walls We gilded your halls (I break my chains and escape my cage) We bled for your needs Now bleed for us all (I break my chains and release my rage)

Here you go now running your mouth again Is there no low that you won't sink to? Here you go now killing my time again With no actions just talk, talk, talk It's so easy to drag me down, cut me off and call me out When you don't have to face me It's to easy to pretend this is all leading up to a fight And then you run Run away, turn away But the mirror never lies Run away, turn away But you know what happened When I looked into your eyes Here you go now acting all though again It's so easy when you hide behind your friends Here you go now playin' it rough again And then you run Run away, turn away But the mirror never lies Run away, turn away But you know what happened When I looked into your eyes Run away, turn away Run away, turn away From the ugliness of your true face You can chew me up and spit me out and beat me to the ground 8 times I'll get up 9 I should have known from the start what you are The love I gave you replaced by a scar

I see you look at me with your hungry eyes As I blow out the light of the world I watch you lick your lips and spread your legs As I drain all the blood of this world Isn't this what you wanted? Isn't this what you were asking for? Take control from your hands Too late to turn back now You had your chance So I take control from your hands I'm in the drivers seat It's time to dance Walk to the edge of the woods and Follow the deadlights Follow the deadlights Crawl to be edge of the cliff and Follow the deadlights Follow the deadlights You offer up your body on a silver platter As I suck all the meat from your bones Isn't this what you wanted? Isn't this what you were asking for? Take control from your hands Too late to turn back now You had your chance So I take control upon your hands I'm in the driver's seat It's time to dance Take control from your hands I'm in the driver's seat Take control from your hands

You breathe in, you breathe out You feel it cut to the bone You walk on glass You lick the blood from the stone The eyes of the Goat are watching The cloven hoof steps out of the fire Unholy rites Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law Oh, how we dance so darkly in the shadow of the horns Got to become the sickness Tonight we raise the Son of Cain And now you all will witness The Purifying of the Flame You breathe in, you breathe out You kneel down before the throne You walk on glass You fall into the unknown Got to live the sickness Tonight we raise the Son of Cain And now you all will witness The Purifying of the Flame Your path is now your own Your will is now your own way Darkest before the dawn No longer shall you obey

There comes a time when silence is no longer golden When lions are mistaken from lambs When it's not your enemies but your heroes you have to fear When you have to choose a side It's time to do or die Hey now! Hear the words I say now! We won't go away now! Here to stay! It's do or die so come with me! Hey now! We do it our own way now! No matter what they say now! Here to stay! It's do or die so come with me! Hear me true believers, this thing is ours alone! Don't listen to deceivers! (No way!) It's the struggle of the everyday that keeps us in a ball and chain To all the ones who keep us down You'd better listen to our battle call This goes out to the people who think they're all alone Don't let this life defeat you! (No way!) It's the music and the words we say that keep the dark times at bay You are not in this all alone (It's do or die so come with me) We will not leave you on your own (It's do or die so come with me)

No one cared who I was until I put on the mask No one cared what I was until I took on the task Until I made my mind a razor You don't want this Violent pistol, vicious missile That never fails and never misses Catch me if you can Run for cover Hunt you down I will say all the things that need to be said Things a weak man keeps in the back of his head Don't you dare beg for mercy You asked for this Violent pistol, vicious missile That never fails and never misses Catch me if you can Violent pistol, vicious missile That only kills and never kisses Fear is for the enemy Run for cover Hunt you down You want to know how I got these scars? They were your gift to me I keep them close to my heart And underneath my skin To remind me not to fear

I find it hard to move with knives in my back The eternal scapegoats on the attack Counterfeit falsehoods and genuine lies Your truth is a weapon in disguise Point of no return We're all about to reach the end of the line Wicked twist of fate This world you've built will end your kind Not a sound in the winter's chill No more screams of the dying I see your heart, I see your soul bleed in the shadow You can't kill the light in me I see your heart, I see your soul bleed in the shadow You know I know I find it hard to breathe with weight on my chest My spirit crushed and laid to rest Counterfeit falsehoods and genuine lies Your love is a weapon in disguise Take a look at the damage done All of this madness, a whole world gone The Star Wormwood blazes in the sky Our love that lived now doom to die Peace won by War!

Doom! The hammer strikes (We are ready!) Doom! The embers fly (We are waiting!) And the shadow of the plague eats your skin alive And the rainbow bridge will break We are waiting And we'll see the end of days Twilight of the Gods And the dark will cover day in its hollow sails We will reach the end of time Twilight of the Gods And the army of the dead release the Ship of Nails Doom! The armor shines (We are ready!) Doom! The swords held high (We are waiting!) Armies fall beneath our blades Slowly your hope dies By the axe your crown will break We are waiting Creation is undone It's time to wave goodbye Got too close to the sun Without your wings you can't fly Doom! We are ready! Doom! We are waiting! And the shadow of the plague eats your skin alive And the rainbow bridge will break We are waiting And we'll see the end of days Twilight of the Gods And the dark will cover day in its hollow sails We will reach the end of time Twilight of the Gods And the army of the dead... Doom!

Colours fade to gray, vision's failing Life it slips away, right through my fingers All that I am All the memories, all the things I did All will be lost like tears in the rain Did not ask for this Why was I made? All my life a slave to unfeeling masters My strength has gone away I must resist this Kneeling beneath the weight Making me inhuman All that I am All the memories, all the things I did All will be lost like tears in the rain All that I was All the evidence of the life I lived All will be lost like tears in the rain Life erased In the past I remain I want more life You can not take this away from me Give me more life I am not what I was supposed to be I want more life I will not unsee the thing I've seen Give me more life Let me be more than a memory

Worn out boots, treading on the highway Vulture moon, leering down on me The hot wind blows and the air is thin Grains of sand fill the cracks of my skin Only tried to live a good life, leave my past behind Now I'll pay you back in kind Born to end lives, never looking back Righting the wrongs done to me Born to end lives Saint of Killers I'll always be Chased the good Lord out of heaven. Shot the devil through the brain. Only tried to live a good life, leave my past behind Now I'll pay you back in kind Born to end lives, never looking back Righting the wrongs done to me Born to end lives Only tried to live a good life and leave my past behind You visited death on those I love, I'll pay you back in kind I'll march right up to heaven and sit upon your throne. Do to you what I did to devil and rest my weary bones Born to end lives, never looking back Righting the wrongs done to me Born to end lives Saint of killers I'll always be I will Saint of killers I'll always be....
