Onslaught
Single • 1989
In the beginning Back in 1955 Man didn't know about a rock 'n' roll show And all that jive The white man had the smoltz The black man had the blues No one knew what they was gonna do But Tchaikovsky had the news He said - 'Let there be light', and there was light 'Let there be sound', and there was sound 'Let there be drums', and there was drums 'Let there be guitar', and there was guitar 'Let there be rock' And it came to pass That rock 'n' roll was born All across the land every rockin' band Was blowing up a storm The guitarman got famous The businessman got rich And in every bar there was a super star With a seven year itch There were fifteen million fingers Learning how to play And you could hear the fingers picking And this is what they had to say 'Let there be light' 'Sound' 'Drums' 'Guitar' 'Let there be rock' One night in a club called `The Shaking Hand' There was a ninety-two decibel rocking band The music was good and the music was loud And the singer turned and he said to the crowd - 'Let there be rock'

Are these the eyes of a madman That see a crumbling sky Reaching out for the answer Please tell me why In a state of reclusion In a shellshocked mind Gazing into the darkness That I can't find Stay calm - there's panic all around Listen to the silence it's so loud Raise hell - Who says that I'm insane Follow let the blindman lead the way Madness i'm your slave Shellshock Shellshock Shellshock Draining the life from me Shellshock Shellshock My ears they bleed Shellshock Shellshock Shellshock Twisting my every dream Shellshock Shellshock Oh insanity was born in me In the chill of a nightmare Awake in screaming pain Bowing down to emotion Every nerve in flame Am i blind to the reason Can i really see Along the path of confusion that's haunting me Stay calm - there's panic all around Listen to the silence it's so loud Raise hell - Who says that I'm insane Follow let the blindman lead the way Madness i'm your slave Shellshock Shellshock Shellshock Draining the life from me Shellshock Shellshock My ears they bleed Shellshock Shellshock Shellshock Twisting my every dream Shellshock Shellshock Oh insanity was born in me Watching time for the timeless Within a conscious dream A fading scene of violence What can this mean Through a faith in illusion Redeem a jaded past The clawing hands of the clockface They turn so fast Stay calm - there's panic all around Listen to the silence it's so loud Raise hell - Who says that I'm insane Follow let the blindman lead the way Madness i'm your slave Shellshock Shellshock Shellshock Draining the life from me Shellshock Shellshock My ears they bleed Shellshock Shellshock Shellshock Twisting my every dream Shellshock Shellshock Oh insanity was born in me

Battles burn The wrath of hell The force cannot be slain Men and steel We stand as one To fight on through the pain Soldiers die The blood runs red We bear the blackest hates Metal force Now crack the sky And raise the seven gates Battle cries The power racks they roar Blood and death Upon the stage of war Running wild Shellshock cracks the beams Sweat and leather Thrashing metal screams Metal forces Haunting mist engulfs the stage We make the final stand Satan's troops attack as one And hold the death command Fighting hard with axe and chain The flame it burns the night Metal storm the heavens fall We ride on seas of light Battle cries The power racks they roar Blood and death Upon the stage of war Running wild Shellshock cracks the beams Sweat and leather Thrashing metal screams Metal forces Metal storm A fork of light Raining from the skies Evil strikes Across the land The metal forces rise Darkness cast on blinded eyes This war cannot be won Sweat and blood hail from above As the battle rages on High on stage The end draws near We fight on through the pain Metal forces stand as one This power runs through our veins Battle cries The power racks they roar Blood and death Upon the stage of war Running wild Shellshock cracks the beams Sweat and leather Thrashing metal screams Metal forces
