Hello my friends, I’m back again, the soldier of the city In the dead of night, ending strangers’ lives No remorse and without pity For 30 years I’ve slept, in fever dreams have crept, nightmare visions of new world kings Up from the depths unleashed, my vengeance to release on those who pull the strings As the decades passed, I understood at last, the scales fell from my eyes My demons had fed on the blood I’d shed But they’d promised only lies What’s left of my soul is now in my control, and my deadly mission certain I’ve set my path, and will unchain my wrath on those behind the curtain It’s my S-Blade Serenade The last song you’ll ever hear My S-Blade Serenade A cold slice of steel and fear The world has changed, it’s completely deranged, with powermad clans at the helm Their bloodlines corrupted, world peace disrupted to establish their ungodly realm With horrors untold, children bought and sold for profit and disgusting desire I’m gonna hunt them down, spill their blood on the ground, and smile as I watch them expire (Chorus) I’m the last one to judge another’s sins Beyond forgiveness, I recognize the bastard that I’ve been I can feel the fires burning and Hell will surely be my home But my blades will keep on turning, and I won’t be going alone (Chorus)
3.
Screaming down the highway I approach the speed of light Death machine on wheels Into the night I ride Turbo charged mystery I’m ready for a show If I don’t go on the high side I just go on the low The sky is slowly turning black There’s no turning back Fuel injected suicide To Hell and back I’m gonna ride Then I’m coming home to fall deep inside of you Undetected by the eye Circular don’t ask me why I am feeling way too high I don’t know what to do I’m addicted to the speed It gives me what I need Fear will dig its claws in me but I will kill it with adrenaline Freedom is velocity Time is moving much too slow I might be just a little crazy But the rubber’s gotta hit the road (Chorus) I am just a speck upon a rock inside a dream Flying through the universe at speeds that are obscene
4.
The enemy is here And he’s knocking at my door And he won’t take no for an answer This feeling is so queer That I’ve been here before And if I could I would eat your cancer You tear it down Now take it back I can’t stand the faith you lack I ain’t living in your blood red world no more It’s not black and white This time tonight It’s technicolor lunacy I'm not gonna die In your science fiction movie If I could I’d fly Right into the sun And take out all this misery All at once This blank page is obscene The worst I ever saw If I could make it bleed I’d rip it right off this wall You tear it down Now take it back I can’t stand the faith you lack I ain’t living in your blood red world no more It’s not black and white This time tonight It’s technicolor lunacy I'm not gonna die In your science fiction movie Well the craziness of a way back when Is rearing its ugly little head again Your mind control is a perfect fit For a switchblade knife and a tourniquet Don’t tell me that I don’t remember Don't lie ‘cause I don’t forget Don’t tell me that I don’t remember Yeah… You tear it down Now take it back I can’t stand the faith you lack I ain’t living in your blood red world no more It’s not black and white It’s on tonight It’s technicolor lunacy I'm not gonna die In your science fiction movie

A body bound in chains, terrifies my soul For you it’s just another day, another place to go All my life I’ve tried to stay out of your way But your gravity it pulls me in to the wicked games you play Go ahead and try to break me Do whatcha gotta do Someone told me yesterday, I am just a fool I didn’t run I didn’t hide but you use me like a tool Go ahead and try to break me Go ahead and do whatcha gotta do Time is running dry and I don’t think you ever really were anything but a thorn in my side A hundred years from today what will matter anyway? All the plans that you have made will turn to rust I know your story I know who you are Lydia the lunatic, we worship at your altar I have tried to leave you, oh so many times But your magic has a hold on me Your shadow covers mine (Chorus) Oh Lydia, we worship at your altar
6.
If you wage another war Careful with your might The Devil is in the details And his fire is burning bright You may think you’re the father of hate And the mother of the blues But you can’t take the glory Better give credit where it’s due Better beware, the Devil may care You think you’re a bad motherfucker Demon of the day Who do you think you sold your soul to anyway? So you think you’re gonna rule the world with fear intimidation and the like I know someone that will take exception with a pitchfork and a spike (Chorus) You’ve dug yourself a hole The Devil’s in your soul Damned to rock and roll (Chorus) You’ve dug yourself a hole The Devil owns your soul Damned to rock and roll

Insomnia 04:42
You are just a snake Hiding coiled inside my DNA And I hate you Seven sleepless nights And it’s easy to see That you hate me too Insomnia Insomnia The red glare of the Digital numbers Burns into my eyes I am not alive Thoughts rattle in a cage That was my brain I need some peace of mind Insomnia I am not your humble slave Insomnia One day you will put me in my grave Insomnia Home of the brave Insomnia One day you will put me in my grave If I could just slip away Maybe a dream would come Floating on a wave If I could just find my circadian rhythm Day and night I have prayed To be released from this mortal curse All the plans that I have made Will be thrown away, washed away Insomnia I am not your humble slave Insomnia Home of the brave Insomnia You fucking evil worthless bastard Insomnia One day you will put me in my grave

For ten long years I’ve been dead and gone I left this world with my red boots on Leave it to my fellow man Always there with an evil plan Back from the dead They treated me like a broken heel Rasputin got a better deal They will never learn But the tide is going to turn Land of the living, I’m laughing again Dancing with danger my friend Hiding from evil, is not a sacred right I’m standing here in plain sight I’m back... back from the dead (Spoken) I know you never dreamed that I’d be back. I can’t wait to see the look on your face. We’ve got a little unfinished business to take care of here. Things are gonna get real interesting, real quick. But hey, I’m a nice guy. I might just forgive everybody. Yeah, right. (Chorus)
9.
I didn’t see this coming It was something unforeseen The oxygen is getting thin I can barely breathe Climbing up the mountain in disbelief I am clairvoyant. I am the past Now I am not old enough to fully comprehend But I smell and taste the fear That’s floating in the wind I sense my betrayal But it’s for the good of the gods This nightmare is not necessary (Chorus) I will never know life And I will never know love But they need to cure their sickness So they lay me down to die I will not forget you And I will not forgive you because everything is temporary Open up your eyes (Chorus) I’m home at last

Watch Us Fly 03:53
Two hundred thousand years ago We landed on your plains Added to your DNA Planted info in your brains We took over your governments We took complete control Leveled out the playing field So there’s nowhere left to go Time is ticking like a bomb It’s time to clue you in Hiding behind ignorance Is no way to begin Oh... don’t ask why Oh... watch us fly A million years from now or yesterday Time is running out we’re on our way We’ll take you by the land and by the sea You’re out of luck, no more sleeping Your time is up Dropping knowledge from the sky We built your pyramids We prophesied your future With the secrets that we hid Your civilization is finally ready To come into the fold Time space and the universe Are yours now to behold Oh... don’t ask why Oh... watch us fly Oh... don’t ask why Oh... watch us fly Oh... don’t deny Oh... watch us fly...watch us fly

Treason 04:12
We know your secrets It’s all written down Carefully organized And buried underground We spend all your money On big empty buildings You know something funny The IRS was on its knees You’re caught in a trap That we won’t release Don’t try to call for help Because we own the police Don’t try to defy us Don’t speak a single word The cameras are rolling Treason you can’t leave You owe us one billion years A prison of belief The only solution is going clear You say you are poor Claim to have debt Just give us all your information And we’ll place the bet So many fools are waiting Waiting for a guide We have all the answers Treason you can’t leave You owe us one billion years A prison of belief The only solution is going clear Treason ...Treason We don’t have the time To address your kind of misery It’s the world we’ve gotta save Maybe in another life We’ll escape to the sea That’s what he wanted Finally free Or maybe not Treason you can’t leave You owe us one billion years A prison of belief The only solution is going clear “Don’t forget to salute my dog” Treason you can’t leave You owe us one billion years A prison of belief The only solution is going clear Treason...Treason Treason...Treason Treason...Xenu

Say It 03:58
When it’s me or you, it’s you for sure Take another drag from your cigarette You don’t have a clue, and you’re soaking wet I can see the fear in your silhouette You’ll die... die young It’s a shame but there’s no way around it A click in the night, terror and fright It’s you and me and us and them together The moon is full and all is well We are on the side of the angels We’ll burn you alive we’ll get in your head If you don’t die you’ll wish you were dead Say it! Tell me your name Say it! Spill your guts and take the pain Say it! I know you well Say it! Today is just another day in Hell I will escape, I will not die I will not succumb to the murder in your eyes This circle of Hell, this god-awful smell Shades of gray don’t define me You validate hypocrisy And then you go and turn it all against me You should be terrified I’m still alive Can you feel your sanity bending? (Chorus) Sympathy and hatred are finely interwoven I’m holding out for a miracle, but I feel my path is chosen Mud blood and artillery It’s up to me and you It’s all about the real estate This is war! This is what we do
13.
Your Reality 05:00
Hiding from yourself It’s difficult to see Everything you’ve lost Has become a mystery You said you wanted to rule the world Coronation of a queen Now you’re just a dirty whore Doused in gasoline But I know you worry Swimming in hypocrisy Lying to yourself Screaming at the negative You should have called for help I know you’re worried It’s written in your eyes Your former glory Is wearing a disguise It’s hopeless No use in trying And your acceptance Is better than dying Delusion…is your reality Said you needed ecstasy It’s criminal to think You planted such an evil seed You pushed it to the brink I know you’re worried It’s written in your eyes Your former glory Is wearing a disguise It’s hopeless No use in trying Because acceptance Is better than dying The future Is finally yours to see Don’t look back Confusion…is your reality Your reality is fictional…delusional Why can’t you just let it go Your reality is all that you can see If you don’t leave you’re never gonna make it Back to where you once were so alive Can’t you see it’s gonna take you down So far down Don’t let it take you Don’t let it take you down
14.
Can you hear the voices in my head They tell me there will be no tomorrow No more joy or no more happiness Nothing but the worst kind of sorrow Just keep your opinions to yourself I eat politicians on the half shell... Delicious Alone in the darkness I’m looking for one ray of light How do you think I feel? All of my life I’ve been waiting right here for a fight How do you think I feel tonight? Why would I look into your eyes It’s not as if I’d find a speck of truth History says that all great men Go to Hell and come back again Please keep your opinions to yourself Put all of your wisdom on a shelf Out there somewhere I don’t care Alone in the darkness I’m looking for one ray of light How do you think I feel? All of my life I’ve been waiting right here for a fight How do you think I feel tonight? It’s alright I’m so light I’m uptight I’m not gonna run away I will stand against this senseless tyranny There’s no blood on my hands I am innocent it’s your conspiracy I don’t want to die All alone I don’t want to die tonight I don’t want to die tonight All alone
15.
Hiding in the shadows of mankind Crazy thoughts invade my fragile mind Fear and anxiety run high Can you tell the ghost it’s time to die How was I to know that you were serious? I blew my only chance at happiness The long black road is never ending Will I ever make it to my home? I am a lost passenger On a train to Hell with all the other souls that are forsaken For years I walked the earth But I never found the truth for it was taken from me Stolen from me by a liar How was I to know that you were serious? I blew my only chance at happiness (Chorus)
