Mary's Lamb 04:18
If you're done playing pretend Let me tell you my friend Mary had a little lamb And it had no bones It's helpless form Had just been born In Mary's arms it found no home And if you looked upon her face expecting resignation You'd see a hunger take the place of utter devastation So if you're going to waste my time You know I hunger for truth Instead you fed me a line I love the way that you spin your web around And if I wanted it straight I'd keep my ear to the ground If you had to take a life Mary asked me one day Do you think you'd use a knife She showed me her blade The steel stained red Her eyes were glazed Unlike that lamb I knew my fate And if you looked upon her face expecting resignation You'd see a hunger take the place of utter devastation So if you're going to waste my time You know I hunger for truth Instead you fed me a line I love the way that you spin your web around And if I wanted it straight I'd keep my ear to the ground So if you're going to waste my time You know I hunger for truth Instead you fed me a line I love the way that you spin your web around And if I wanted it straight I'd keep my ear to the ground

Feeble Gods 03:27
I could be the one to do it Nothing to it nothing to it I could be the one to do it Nothing to it nothing to it I could be the one to do it It's taken time to acclimate to human form The battle raged but there's a calm after the storm I stand atop the body of my fallen foe Pried from it's grip I marvel at this golden bow If you're down and feeling cast aside Grab a sword and heed the rally cry Bolts of lightning from the sky rain down upon our heads At morning if you don't believe by night they want you dead All the power that they hold is tied to our beliefs It's time to show these feeble gods what mortals can achieve Nothing to it I raise my bow and point it up into the sky The gods above us all take shelter for their lives I had some sympathy before they cast me down I loose and arrow and I bring one to the ground If you're down and feeling cast aside Grab a sword and heed the rally cry Bolts of lightning from the sky rain down upon our heads At morning if you don't believe by night they want you dead All the power that they hold is tied to our beliefs It's time to show these feeble gods what mortals can achieve If you're down and feeling cast aside Grab a sword and heed the rally cry Bolts of lightning from the sky rain down upon our heads At morning if you don't believe by night they want you dead All the power that they hold is tied to our beliefs It's time to show these feeble gods what mortals can achieve

Confessional 04:15
Let's just pretend that this is something that it's not We're more than strangers getting heavy in the dark We tell our secrets we don't keep it locked inside And in the morning we can both go and divide You don't have to hide it Would you get it through your head Every saint and every soldier has a secret in their shed You don't have to hide it Would you get it through your head There's an angel in your attic and a demon in your bed I tell you everything I don't want you to know You whisper things to keep the devil down below We part our ways and we go back to our own kin With just my silhouette to judge you for your sins You don't have to hide it Would you get it through your head Every saint and every soldier has a secret in their shed You don't have to hide it Would you get it through your head There's an angel in your attic and a demon in your bed You don't have to hide it Would you get it through your head Every saint and every soldier has a secret in their shed You don't have to hide it Would you get it through your head There's an angel in your attic and a demon in your bed

I've got this plague that's soaked down deep into my bones It's getting late and I don't think I'll make it home Half the time the sun goes blind it turns me to a howling killer Fur so thick your eyes play tricks In darkness I am just a shadow now Come on baby do your worst Come and see my moonlit cures Come and see my claws grow out I'll show you what it's all about I've got a silver bullet saved away for a rainy day I could use it now but I gotta say That I love the way this has got me feeling I wake up covered in the blood of someone else It awakens cravings that I didn't know I felt Half the time the sun goes blind it turns me to a howling killer Claws so sharp they rip apart The flesh of anything that's in my way Come on baby do your worst Come and see my moonlit cures Come and see my claws grow out I'll show you what it's all about I've got a silver bullet saved away for a rainy day I could use it now but I gotta say That I love the way this has got me feeling Half the time the sun goes blind it turns me to a howling killer Teeth so sharp they pierce the heart Of any one that dares to look my way

Bodysnatcher 05:19
I got this feeling I can't shake babe I want to rip out both my eyes If I don't get into some new skin I know I'm gonna lose my mind I see your face across the room babe I go your way and ask the time That's all it takes and I know soon yeah I'll have your body and your mind Hold on you've heard the lore How the choices you make They open up the door For the creatures like me You let them in With every dirty thought With every stolen grin And I say Your skin looks soft Why won't you let me take it off I want your blood I want your bones I want your brains I want it all You've got a heart I wanna break babe I'm gonna tell you all my lies And if I get my way tonight yeah I'm wanna squeeze between your thighs Hold on you've heard the lore How the choices you make They open up the door For the creatures like me You let them in With every dirty thought With every stolen grin And I say Your skin looks soft Why won't you let me take it off I want your blood I want your bones I want your brains I want it all I slip away as my old self slumbers The sky explodes and I hear the thunder I readjust my human face And take my fuel-injected rocket ship back to outer space yeah Hold on you've heard the lore How the choices you make They open up the door For the creatures like me You let them in With every dirty thought With every stolen grin And I say Your skin looks soft Why won't you let me take it off I want your blood I want your bones I want your brains I want it all

Entropy 03:17
This could be the end of the entire human race I'm sending out a distress call through all of time and space Northern lights are cutting through the darkness of the sky Sixty million colors in the blinking of an eye Wait You've opened up the gate A portal to your mind A passage to the infancy of time And now you're late You've gone and sealed your fate You've known it all along A secret that you kept but you did not believe it Many stars are far from here We take off to the sky Ninety million voyages and I saw them from your eyes Entropy is winning and there's nothing left to do Say one last goodbye and see the universe anew Wait You've opened up the gate A portal to your mind A passage to the infancy of time And now you're late You've gone and sealed your fate You've known it all along A secret that you kept but you did not believe it Wait You've opened up the gate A portal to your mind A passage to the infancy of time And now you're late You've gone and sealed your fate You've known it all along A secret that you kept but you did not believe it

Incantations 03:43
I have seen the pages of the Necronomicon Bound in flesh and penned in blood the passages go on I am but a servant and give all my praise to him He who casts the first stone despite wallowing in sin In the darkness He is waiting In the shadows he waits for you Incantations Desecration From the void he calls upon you You can peer upon the tome from whence the darkness comes There are words inside the book that call the master home Read aloud the verses give yourself up to the beast Shed the mortal coil and become a corvid feast In the darkness He is waiting In the shadows he waits for you Incantations Desecration From the void he calls upon you In the darkness He is waiting In the shadows he waits for you Incantations Desecration From the void he calls upon you

Iron 03:16
Underneath the mountains are a hundred men They tear up the Earth and go back down again From the holy fire steel and iron form Feeding the demand for the tools of war They got iron in their guns But we got iron in our blood Pumping day And pumping night One of us is gonna win this fight Up above the clouds is a fleet of jets Faster than the thunder while raining death Years ago the dream was of a human flight Now we use machines to take away those lives They got iron in their planes But we got iron in our veins Pumping day And pumping night One of us is gonna win this fight They got iron in their guns But we got iron in our blood Pumping day And pumping night One of us is gonna win this fight

If you wanted blood yeah Guess I'll give you some- Thing to talk about tonight yeah We don't have to fight no more yeah If you wanted love yeah I could give you some if you Wash your brain tonight yeah And believe every thing that I say I got one hundred thousand pieces of my heart Each one's a galaxy My god it's full of stars Oh they're coming to take you home And you want to leave here Cause the time you spent Turned to discontent Of your prehistoric bones And I hold you for the final time I see the solar eclipse as the shadows surround us If you wanted drugs yeah I could give you some if you Try to get away yeah Satiated and then sedated I got a couple people living in my town They're buried deep enough they're breathing underground Oh they're coming to take you home And you want to leave here Cause the time you spent Turned to discontent Of your prehistoric bones And I hold you for the final time I see the solar eclipse as the shadows surround us Oh they're coming to take you home And you want to leave here Cause the time you spent Turned to discontent Of your prehistoric bones And I hold you for the final time I see the solar eclipse as the shadows surround us

We pretended that world had ended You were growing on me We were Clyde and Bonnie In the years that followed My ambition swallowed Up the change in seasons I forgot my reason to be Turn back the clock my darling I've ruined everything I beat my wings so hard it turned into a hurricane Turn back the clock my darling I need to make a mends If there's a chance to make this right I hope you let me take it. I can't forget On the day we met I was so obsessive I became posessive And that's all it takes I make the same mistakes I feel you slip away Should I try to change again Turn back the clock my darling I've ruined everything I beat my wings so hard it turned into a hurricane Turn back the clock my darling I need to make a mends If there's a chance to make this right I hope you let me take it. Turn back the clock my darling I've ruined everything I beat my wings so hard it turned into a hurricane Turn back the clock my darling I need to make a mends If there's a chance to make this right I hope you let me take it.

I've been down this road before I can't say that I like it much Many men have perished here And more have lost their way Anytime I see a crime I turn my face the other way I don't let the sunlight go my way No I don't let the sunlight go my way Sticks and stones can break your bones And people want to hurt you But you might still be beaten to death By your own heart So grab your gun and saddle son And join the Devil's Army You don't know how much you left behind No you don't know how much you left behind
