Battery

        Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
        Weak are ripped and torn away
        Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
        Battery is here to stay

           Smashing through the boundaries
           Lunacy has found me
           Cannot stop the Battery
           Pounding out aggression
           Turns into obsession
           Cannot kill the Battery
           Cannot kill the family
           Battery is found in me
           Battery

        Crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers
        Never ending potency
        Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
        Breeding on insanity

           Smashing through the boundaries
           Lunacy has found me
           Cannot stop the Battery
           Pounding out aggression
           Turns into obsession
           Cannot kill the Battery
           Cannot kill the family
           Battery is found in me
           Battery

        Circle of Destruction, Hammer comes crushing
        Powerhouse of energy
        Whipping up a fury, Dominating flurry
        We create the Battery

           Smashing through the boundaries
           Lunacy has found me
           Cannot stop the Battery
           Pounding out aggression
           Turns into obsession
           Cannot kill the Battery
           Cannot kill the family
           Battery is found in me
           Battery


Master Of Puppets

        End of passion play, crumbling away
        I'm your source of self-destruction
        Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
        Leading on your death's construction
        Taste me you will see
        More is all you need
        You're dedicated to
        How I'm killing you

           Come crawling faster
           Obey your Master
           Your life burns faster
           Obey your Master
                     Master

           Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
           Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
           Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
           Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
           Master
           Master
           Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
           Master
           Master

        Needlework the way, never you betray
        Life of death becoming clearer
        Pain monopoly, ritual misery
        Chop your breakfast on a mirror
        Taste me you will see
        More is all you need
        You're dedicated to
        How I'm killing you

           Come crawling faster
           Obey your Master
           Your life burns faster
           Obey your Master
                     Master

           Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
           Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
           Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
           Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
           Master
           Master
           Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
           Master
           Master

          
        Master, Master, where's the dreams that I've been after?
        Master, Master, you promised only lies
        Laughter, Laughter, all I hear and see is laughter
        Laughter, Laughter, laughing at my cries

        Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
        Just a rhyme without a reason
        Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
        Now your life is out of season
        I will occupy
        I will help you die
        I will run through you
        Now I rule you too

           Come crawling faster
           Obey your Master
           Your life burns faster
           Obey your Master
                     Master


        Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
        Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
        Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
        Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
        Master
        Master
        Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream
        Master
        Master

        [Fade out with evil laughter].


The Thing that Should Not Be

        Messenger of fear in sight
        Dark deception kills the light

        Hybrid children watch the sea
        Pray for father, roaming free

           Fearless wretch
           Insanity
           He watches
           Lurking beneath the sea
           Great old one
           Forbidden site
           He searches
           Hunter of the shadows is rising
                                    immortal
                                    in madness you dwell

        Crawling chaos, underground
        Cult has summoned, twisted sound

        Out from ruins once possessed
        Fallen city, living death

           Fearless wretch
           Insanity
           He watches
           Lurking beneath the sea
           Great old one
           Forbidden site
           He searches
           Hunter of the shadows is rising
                                    immortal
                                    in madness you dwell

        Not dead which eternal lie
        Stranger eons death may die

        Drain you of your sanity
        Face The Thing That Should Not Be

           Fearless wretch
           Insanity
           He watches
           Lurking beneath the sea
           Great old one
           Forbidden site
           He searches
           Hunter of the shadows is rising
                                    immortal
                                    in madness you dwell


Welcome Home (Sanitarium)

        Welcome to where time stands still
        No one leaves and no one will
        Moon is full, never seems to change
        Just labeled mentally deranged
        Dream the same thing every night
        I see our freedom in my sight
        No locked doors, no windows barred
        No things to make my brain seem scarred

        Sleep my friend and you will see
        That dream is my reality
        They keep me locked up in this cage
        Can't they see it's why my brain says rage

            Sanitarium, leave me be
            Sanitarium, just leave me alone

        Build my fear of what's out there
        And cannot breathe the open air
        Whisper things into my brain
        Assuring me that I'm insane
        They think our heads are in their hands
        But violent use brings violent plans
        Keep him tied, it makes him well
        He's getting better, can't you tell?

        No more can they keep us in
        Listen, damn it, we will win
        They see it right, they see it well
        But they think this saves us from our hell

            Sanitarium, leave me be
            Sanitarium, just leave me alone
            Sanitarium, just leave me alone

        Fear of living on
        Natives getting restless now
        Mutiny in the air
        Got some death to do
        Mirror stares back hard
        Kill, it's such a friendly word
        Seems the only way
        For reaching out again.


Disposable Heroes

        Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
        No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
        Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all
        Victim of what said should be
        A servant 'til I fall

            Soldier boy, made of clay
            Now an empty shell
            Twenty one, only son
            But he served us well
            Bred to kill, not to care
            Do just do as we say
            Finished here, greetings death
            He's yours to take away

            Back to the front
            You will do what I say, when I say
            Back to the front
            You will die when I say, you must die
            Back to the front
            You coward
            You servant
            You blindman

        Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
        Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
        More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends
        Bodies fill the fields I see
        The slaughter never ends

            Soldier boy, made of clay
            Now an empty shell
            Twenty one, only son
            But he served us well
            Bred to kill, not to care
            Do just do as we say
            Finished here, greetings death
            He's yours to take away

            Back to the front
            You will do what I say, when I say
            Back to the front
            You will die when I say, you must die
            Back to the front
            You coward
            You servant
            You blindman

        Why, am I dying?
        Kill, have no fear
        Lie, live off lying
        Hell, hell is here

        I was born for dying

        Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say
        Had no chance to see myself, molded day by day
        Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
        Left to die with only friend
        Alone I clench my gun

            Soldier boy, made of clay
            Now an empty shell
            Twenty one, only son
            But he served us well
            Bred to kill, not to care
            Do just do as we say
            Finished here, greetings death
            He's yours to take away

            Back to the front
            You will do what I say, when I say
            Back to the front
            You will die when I say, you must die
            Back to the front
            You coward
            You servant
            You blindman

        Back to the front.


Leper Messiah

        Spineless from the start, sucked into the part
        Circus comes to town, you play the lead clown
        Please, please
        Spreading his disease, living by his story
        Knees, knees
        Falling to your knees, suffer for his glory
        You will

            Time for lust, time for lie
            Time to kiss your life goodbye
            Send me money, send me green
            Heaven you will meet
            Make a contribution
            And you'll get a better seat
            Bow to leper messiah

        Marvel at his tricks, need your Sunday fix
        Blind devotion came, rotting your brain
        Chain, chain
        Join the endless chain, taken by his glamour
        Fame, fame
        Infection is the game, stinking drunk with power
        We see

            Time for lust, time for lie
            Time to kiss your life goodbye
            Send me money, send me green
            Heaven you will meet
            Make a contribution
            And you'll get a better seat
            Bow to leper messiah
 
        Witchery, weakening
        Sees the sheep are gathering
        Set the trap, hypnotize
        Now you follow

            Time for lust, time for lie
            Time to kiss your life goodbye
            Send me money, send me green
            Heaven you will meet
            Make a contribution
            And you'll get a better seat
            Bow to leper messiah

            Lie

Damage, Inc.

        Dealing out the agony within
        Charging hard and no one's gonna give in
        Living on your knees, conformity
        Or dying on your feet for honesty
        Inbred, our bodies work as one
        Bloody, but never cry submission
        Following our instinct not a trend
        Go against the grain until the end

            Blood will follow blood
            Dying time is here
            Damage incorporated

        Slamming through, don't fuck with razorback
        Stepping out?  You'll feel our hell on your back
        Blood follows blood and we make sure
        Life ain't for you and we're the cure
        Honesty is my only excuse
        Try to rob us of it, but it's no use
        Steamroller action crushing all
        Victim is your name and you shall fall

            Blood will follow blood
            Dying time is here
            Damage incorporated

        We chew and spit you out
        We laugh, you scream and shout
        All flee, with fear you run
        You'll know just where we come from

            Damage incorporated

        Damage jackals ripping right through you
        Sight and smell of this, it gets me goin'
        Know just how to get just what we want
        Tear it from your soul in nightly hunt
        Fuck it all and fucking no regrets
        Never happy ending on these dark sets
        All's fair for Damage Inc. you see
        Step a little closer if you please

            Blood will follow blood
            Dying time is here
            Damage incorporated
