Exit
Anthrax

You know he got the cure
You know he went astray
He used to stay awake
To drive the dreams he had away
He wanted to believe
In the hands of love

His head it felt heavy
As he cut across the land
A dog started crying
Like a broken hearted man
At the howling wing
At the howling wind

He went deeper into black
Deeper into white
Could see the stars shining
Like nails in the night
He felt the healing
Healing, healing

Healing hands of love
Like the stars shiny shiny
From above

Hand in the pocket
Finger on the steel
The pistol weighed heavy
His heart he could feel
Was beating, beating
Beating, beating oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love

Oh my love
My love

Saw the hands that build
Can also pull down

The hands of love

Fight 'em 'til You Can't
Anthrax

City authorities in north italy
Have reported that the bodies of the dead
Are rising from the graves
And attacking the living

When did this begin?
This curse is only sin
Reality is bleeding at the core
Brilliant savagery
Decapitate and bleed
Off the spoiled seed
Til it's pure

Their darkest evil nightmare
Fuck it, then their evil souls
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
Can't save us brains that want to feed
So won't you feed the force?
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
The murder in your eyes
Is just a wound to stay alive
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
Cause there's no humanity
When the dead come back to feed
You gotta fight 'em
Fight 'em

In the end of everything
Dead will rise and sing
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more
The world is only blood
When rage becomes your love
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more

I will end you
Kill and kill the thing
It's mind-shattering
When murder is the only cure
Brilliant savagery
Decapitate and bleed
Off the spoiled seed
Til it's pure

Their darkest evil nightmare
Fuck it, then their evil souls
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
Can't save us brains that want to feed
So won't you feed the force?
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
The murder in your eyes
Is just a wound to stay alive
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
Cause there's no humanity
When the dead come back to feed
You gotta fight 'em
Fight 'em

In the end of everything
Dead will rise and sing
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more
The world is only blood
When rage becomes your love
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more
No more
No more
No more

Their darkest evil nightmare
Fuck it, then their evil souls
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
Can't save us brains that want to feed
So won't you feed the force?
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
The murder in your eyes
Is just a wound to stay alive
You gotta fight 'em
I'll end you
Cause there's no humanity
When the dead come back to feed
You gotta fight 'em
Fight 'em

In the end of everything
Dead will rise and sing
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more
The world is only blood
When rage becomes your love
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more
In the end of everything
Dead will rise, rise and sing
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more
The world is left with only blood
Rage becomes your only love
Fight 'em 'til you can't
Fight no more
No more
No more
No more

Finale
Anthrax

Life can be so wonderful
Real love this time you fool
And then you wake up
And you'd chew off your own arm
Or face the only graduate from Satans school of charm!
I hear your mama callin' you
I hear your mama callin' you
You'd better stand and face the truth boy
I hear your mama callin' you

I drink three six packs, just so I can look at your face
Finally!
You give respect, you get respect
And you just don't know your place
Finally!
You never learn, you always burn
Now I've got you off of my case
Finally!
I drank three six packs, just so I could look at your face
Finally!
See ya!
Over, finished, gone, done, out!

She's not the one you married
Not the one who cared
Maybe it's her evil twin thats got you by the shorthairs
Can you live without it?
Can you be a man?
Can you tell her take a walk and stick it up her can!

I hear your mama callin' you
I hear your mama callin' you
You'd better stand and face the truth boy
I hear your mama callin' you

I drink three six packs, just so I can look at your face
Finally!
You give respect, you get respect
And you just don't know your place
Finally!
You never learn, you always burn
Now I've got you off of my case
Finally!
I drank three six packs, just so I could look at your face
Finally!
See ya!
Over, finished, gone, done, out!

I hear your mama callin' you
I hear your mama callin' you
Now go and pack your bags we're through
I hear your mama callin' you

Rape my mind led down the wrong path
One too many rides and you crashed
Had the looks but had no class
Steal my life and taint my past
Sorry I don't mean to laugh (take it Sam)

How long have you been waiting to be set free?
Don't you know it's easy as 1, 2, 3
Don't be a faggot now that's the key
Don't you know it's easy as 1, 2, 3

Now I'm free, now I'm free, me me me, finally!!!

Over, finished, gone, done, out!!!!

Friggin In The Riggin
Anthrax

[originally performed by sex pistols]
There was a bunch of roadies
And this here is their story
A scurvy bunch of evil twits
Who never say they're sorry
They've traveled cross the nations
Fuckin' paid vacations
We love the schism that they make
They're here for the duration
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
The captains name is rick
Whose "bozo-do" is slick
He really thinks he knows it all
He's just a jersey hick
Wanking, cranking, georgie
He always finds an orgy
He rubs his balls and picks his nose
He's horny georgie porgie
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
The kind of sleaze is ring
Polaroid's his thing
He whipped it out, her teeth fell out
And now it's in a sling
From la we have troy
His fetish is playboy
A smelly trout, he'll eat it out
Go wash your hands you're m.o.i.
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
John tempesta is the joker
The adams apple choker
Sandra bernhard is his twin
He'd probably even poke her
The b-boy was john rooney
He was a fuckin' loony
He does a rap, he thinks he's black
He's soft like gerry cooney
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
Yo my name is bill
Dur, bouncing is my skill

Fueled
Anthrax

I'm out to mix it up and change my complexion
To coat the feelings and cure my depression
A shot of petrol is my bonafide method
To lose control and get thoroughly distracted

I'm on the money, here I come
Fuel for my engine, and I'm gone

I like to forget why I feel this compulsive
As I toss tomorrow's dreams in the garbage
What's important is a mind that's sicker
Turning Jekyll into Hide much quicker

I'm on the money, here I come
Fuel for my engine, and I'm gone

1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4
Kickstart and turn me over
Punchdrunk, but I'm still sober
Fourteen years and a whole lot bolder
And I don't flinch
Hungry and I'll take the best
'Cause I never wanted anything less
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger

It's like a war inside me, I'm good, I'm evil
Two sides of the coin and I've been blessed with both
On one hand I am you, but I don't like you
I guess that's the nature of the way things work

I'm on the money, here I come
Fuel for my engine, and I'm gone

1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4
Kickstart and turn me over
Punchdrunk, but I'm still sober
Bukowski's on my shoulder
With much to think
Hungry and I'll take the best
'Cause I never wanted anything less
What doesn't kill makes me stronger
It's like a war inside me, action is all I know
Tell me it's suicide, tell me something I don't know

I don't know why I've been made some kind of hero
When I've done all I can do to prove I'm not
It's amazing to think someone could trust me
Tell me what do you know about me really ?
And I you make the mistake of getting close to,
Me, you'll just give me all that you've got
So I don't know why I've been made some kind of hero
When I've done all I can do to prove I'm not

1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4
Kickstart and turn me over
Punchdrunk, but I'm still sober
Fourteen years and a whole lot bolder
And I don't flinch
Hungry and I'll take the best
'Cause I never wanted anything less
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger

1, 2, 3, 4, 1, I can't close this broken door

It's just the nature of the way things work
You wanna be me, I don't give a damn
Anyone can do it but it takes a man not to
Try so hard to give me a real life
Anyone can do it but it takes a man not to
It's just the nature of the way things work

Giving The Horns
Anthrax

Give it up, Got to give it up I said
Man you're already dead
You got no reason for hanging around
Except for a beatdown
Say what you wanna say
Take it down, Break it down
I'm the sum of it's parts
Kicked around like a hound
Never give it much thought
Good lord, I always meant i to be so Fucking heavy

I give the horns to you who saved me
I give the horns to you who told me to

Change my way of life out of one into another
Yeah you heard me everyday I thank my mother
(on the day i fought your mother)
(I said)
Give it up, Got to give it up it's my space
then you spit it my face
Good luck, it don't mean nothing to me
Look where it's coming from

A time to kill, A time to die
I sign the horns and make it mine
Is everything I say a lie
Do I exist in my perfect crime
Another shot, I take it well
My so called perfect life in hell and
Sometimes I just need to Fucking yell

 

[helldanger1]

God Save The Queen
Anthrax

God save the Queen
The fascist regime,
They made you a moron
A potential H-bomb

God save the Queen
She ain't no human being
There is no future
In England's dreaming

Don't be told what you want
Don't be told what you need
There's no future
There's no future
There's no future for you

God save the Queen
We mean it man
We love our queen
God saves

God save the Queen
'Cos tourists are money
And our figurehead
Is not what she seems

Oh God save history
God save your mad parade
Oh Lord God have mercy
All crimes are paid

When there's no future
How can there be sin
We're the flowers
In the dustbin
We're the poison
In your human machine
We're the future
You're future

God save the Queen
We mean it man
We love our queen
God saves

God save the Queen
We mean it man
There is no future
In England's dreaming

No future
No future for you
No fufure for me.

Got The Time
Anthrax

Wake up, got another day to get,
Through now, got another man to see
Gotta call him on the telephone ay o
Gotta find a piece of paper
Sit down, got another letter to write,
Think hard, gotta get a letter just right
Little ringin' on the telephone oh no,
Gotta write another letter
No such thing as tomorrow
All we want
Two, three, go!
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Tickin' in my head, tickin' in my head, tickin' in my head
If i, tell ya what I'm doing today
Will you, shut up and get out of my way
Someone ask me what the time is, I don't know
Only know I gotta go now
No time, tryin' ta get a watch repaired
No time, never got a thing to wear
Little ringin' on the telephone
Oh no, hear a ringin' in my head now
No such thing as tomorrow
All we want
Two, three, go!
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Tickin' in my head, tickin' in my head, tickin' in my head
No such thing as tomorrow
All we want

Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Time, got the time tick tick tickin' in my head
Tickin' in my head, tickin' in my head
Tickin' in my head!

Gridlock
Anthrax

It's a long time, a long time comin'
You tell me how you think I should be
It's so easy
You tell me what people want from me
Well I'll just be myself
It's the only way I can be, but you don't see
You accuse, abuse integrity
You don't know one damn thing about me
Not one damn thing

Build me up and then you tear me down
Curse my name when I'm not around
You're so hard until the truth is found
What goes round always comes around

And it's a
Long time, long time
A long time comin'
A long time, long time
A long time comin', a vicious circle
In your face I'll come runnin'
Try and stop me
A long time, much too long
And I'm comin'

Try and stop me
I like to keep my friends around me close
But my enemies closer
Friends accept me for just who I am
Not someone I'm supposed to be
Or something they expect for free
Do you know me?
I live with myself, I know my place
Wipe that bullshit smile off your face
The show is over

You and me are gonna take a walk
I think it's time we had a little talk
I said, you and me are gonna take a walk
And we're gonna do more than walk and talk
Let me see how you think I should be
You think it's so easy?
Put yourself on trial everyday
Against a hung jury
You don't know a thing about me
You believe the hype you see
But in my heart God knows I'll be true
To what my life will bring

Gung-Ho
Anthrax

Striking down the enemy
Fighting hand to hand
Troops are thrusting onwards
Time to take command
Ready to devour
On the attack
Bodies lie dismembered
Maimed, killed, and hacked

Draw fast, cut first
Live hard, die hard
Feel the point of the blade

Lunging like an animal, killing all in sight
Going for the throat, living for the fight
In a bath of bloodshed, mixing with the sweat
Crawling through the barbwire, put it to the test

Fight, fight fight
Fight, fight fighting the war
Gung-Ho, Gung-Ho, Gung-Ho

Raging on the warpath, storming through the town
Blowing it to pieces, killing all around
Stand in our way, if you've got the balls
In a hail of bullets, your nailed to the wall

We wait out the day, we burn in the sun
We move in by night, and kill everyone
Show no emotions, have no regrets
Made to take pain, no fear of death

 

[helldanger1]

H8 Red
Anthrax

So I say to you
So you look at me
What do I have to do?
And you look at me
So I say to you
You just look at me
What the hell do you see?
Do I hate you?
No, I don't think so
Words don't describe what my feelings know
Do I hate you?
No, and I refuse to go
Down to your level just to feed my ego
Do I hate you?
Yes, I got it off my chest
I hate you for making me regress
Stop, stop, stop, stop
Looking at me
What do you see?
I don't see in black and white
I see things in wrong and right
Do I hate you?
Think, it takes a man to think
And to admit his ignorance
You can't just look at my face
You can't judge me by my race
We gotta,
Stop, stop, stop, stop
What do you see?
So I say to you
Just look at me
I say to you
Different and
All this hatred
All this hatred
And do I hate you?
I can't take it
All this hatred
You may not know this
We may be different
Different but equal
Different and free
You may not know this
We may be different
Different but equal
Different and free
All this hatred
All this hatred
And do I hate you?
I can't take it
Stop this hatred, Now!
Do I hate you? Do I hate you? Yes.
Do I hate you, and placate you? Ohh.
Do I hate you? Do I hate you? No!!!
No I'm not that arrogant
To not admit my ignorance
And do you think I really care
When you sit there and you stare
I can't help feel sorry for you
And maybe even pity too
My answer's no and this is true,
Do I hate you?!
All this hatred
All this hatred
I can't take it
All this hatred
You may not know this
We may be different
Different but equal
Different and free

Harm's Way
Anthrax

Here comes the biggest asshole
That the whole world has ever seen
Watch as things turn to something
I never meant to be
Call it a side effect of my arrested development
Here with you I'm trapped, out of my element

I tear through all this wreckage
You left when you dropped the bomb
Is there something worth saving
Or do I act like nothing's wrong
The lesser of two equals gives me nothing at all

Lust and madness murder and mayhem
My whole life's been about playing
It's so surreal
Maybe that's why I touch but can't feel

Sittin' pretty as I sit up straight
Trying to find means to an end
I move into harms way

I see my face in the mirror
I feel my feet but I can't seem to walk in my shoes
When it hurts I feel closer to you
Closer than you ever knew
And the bottom line is knowing
I will die and the worms will eat me
The bottom line is knowing
Ain't no one else I can be

Running steady, smile on my face

 

[helldanger1]

Hog Tied
Anthrax

I have something I can reveal
I get off on laughing
It's like the biggest orgasm
If you like I'll share it with you

When you give up yourself, you do it peacefully
Then you feel no plight and you think you're free
Give up yourself
There goes your chivalry
From on top of the world, I'll throw you down a rope

Hog tied to this life, I'm strapped up tight
And I won't be no slave

I can't wait to get you back
I need you back in my clutches
If it takes a thousand punches
By the end you'll be in stitches

Climb up if the noose ain't tied

It won't disturb you, it's here to serve you
Unlock the doubt, you'll find it's out, your rosetta stone
Or you'll cut the line, and stifle time
Slash your wrist and kiss and kiss your crippled bones

 

[helldanger1]

Howling Furies
Anthrax

Abandon all hope for those who enter
Cause there ain't too much of that down here
A clouded mist in a darkened tunnel
And twisted screams are growing near

Now you're down here, you're gonna all stay
Cause the howling furies wanna come out and play
You're headed for doom, you'd better prepare
Cause in this part of the woods almost anything's fair, yeah

You lied and cheated in your miserable life
You met your end with a butcher knife
We laughed when you died, you sit in your grave
Just waiting to turn into satan's slave

 

[helldanger1]

Hy Pro Glo
Anthrax

I...
Who, what, where, when, why,
How many ways can you lie
How many ways can you try
How many ways can you die

What am I gonna do
I can't look at you
What are you gonna do
You're no hypocrite

I bash my head against the wall everyday
You'd bash your head against the wall anyway
And then you'd turn around to see if I care
But I can't, and I never did
What'd you expect me to give
You never deserved my respect

How many ways can you try
It burns a hole inside my mind

What am I gonna do
I can't look at you
Can't look like you
I'm no hypocrite

What are you gonna do
You love to look at you
Don't have a clue
You're no hypocrite

You've hgot a hole inside that you have to feed
You've got a hole you'll use to get what you need
And then you look to see if I care
But I can't, and I never did
What'd you expect me to give
You never deserved my respect

You've got that look I wanna know
You've got that look, the hy pro glo

 

[helldanger1]

I Am The Law
Anthrax

Fifteen years in the academy
He was like no cadet they'd ever seen
A man so hard, his veins bleed ice
And when he speaks he never says it twice
They call him Judge, his last name is Dredd
So break the law, and you may wind up dead
Truth and justice are what he's fighting for
Judge Dredd the man, he is the law
DROKK IT

With his gun and bike he rules the streets
And every perp he meets will taste defeat
Not even Death can overcome his might
Cause Dredd and Anderson, they won the fight
When the Sov's started the Apocalypse war
And Mega-city was bombed to the floor
Dredd resisted, and the judges fought back
And crushed the Sov's with their counter-attack
DROKK IT

[PRE-CHORUS:]
Respect the badge - he earned it with his blood
Fear the gun - your sentence may be death
because ...

[CHORUS:]
I AM THE LAW
And you won't fuck around no more - I AM THE LAW
I judge the rich, I judge the poor - I AM THE LAW
Commit a crime I'll lock the door - I AM THE LAW
Because in Mega-City ...
I AM THE LAW

In the cursed earth where mutants dwell
There is no law, it's just a living hell
Anarchy and chaos as the blood runs red
But this would change if it was up to Dredd
The book of law is the bible to him
And any crime committed is a sin
He keeps the peace whith his law-giver
Judge, jury, and executioner
DROKK IT

[REPEAT PRE-CHORUS]
[REPEAT CHORUS]

[BRIDGE:]
CRIME - the ultimate sin
Your Iso-Cube is waiting when he brings you in
LAW - it's what he stands for
Crime's his only enemy and he's going to war

[LEAD BREAK]

[REPEAT BRIDGE]
[REPEAT PRE-CHORUS]
[REPEAT CHORUS]

I'd Rather Be Sleeping
Anthrax

From sun up to sun down
Decisions make my head spin round
Make me drunk sick and tired
Keep me up til I retire
And while I could be out bar hopping
Meat market, rocker chick shopping
Out there chasing my dick
In it's never ending search for chicks

But i'd rather be sleeping
In my bed crashed out
A slice of death wrapped up
All in wool, passed out
Drunk, you stupid fool

In my bed crashed out
A slice of death wrapped up
All in wool, passed out
Drunk, you stupid fool

No more waking hassles
Weary of the daily battles

So on my bed I lay curled
I could be man of the world

I'd rather be sleeping
In my bed crashed out
A slice of death wrapped up
All in wool, passed out
Drunk, you stupid fool

In my bed crashed out
A slice of death wrapped up
All in wool, passed out
Drunk, you stupid fool

 

[helldanger1]

I'm Alive
Anthrax

Look into my holy eyes
An empty smile
And you're hypnotized
Selling lies my enterprise
The sheep just get in line

Capitulate so easily
The power of fear
That I'm trafficking
Years of sleep have left you blind
I made the bed your in

As I lead the child to war again
Heaven lives in every gun

I damn you

I'm alive to be the demon
I'm alive to be the one
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Hell it lives in everyone

When your world has slipped away
And all you have is me to pay
Once so proud you beg for more
And spread your legs like some dirty whore

I'm invited in
One nation under me

 

[helldanger1]

I'm Eighteen
Anthrax

Lines form on my face and hands
Lines form from the ups and downs
I'm in the middle without any plans
I'm a boy and I'm a man

I'm eighteen and I don't know what I want
Eighteen, I just don't know what I want
Eighteen, I got to get away
I got to get out of this place

I'll go runnin' in outer space, woh yeah!

I've got a baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talking about
Feels like I'm living in the middle of doubt

'Cause I'm eighteen, I get confused ev'ry day
Eighteen, I just don't know what to say
Eighteen, I've got to get away

Lines form on my face and my hands
Lines form from the left and right
I'm in the middle, the middle of life
I'm a boy and I'm a man

I'm eighteen and I like it
Yes I like it
Woh, I like it, love it, like it, love it
Eighteen, eighteen, eighteen, eighteen, woh!
And I like it
I'm eighteen
And I like it
I'm eighteen
Yes, I like it
I'm eighteen
Woh, I like it
I'm eighteen
And I like it
I'm eighteen
Woh, I like it, love it, like it, love it, like it, love it, like it
I like it
I like it
I like it

They fart the farts, the farts he farted
I pick my nose but I'm retarted
Like El Duce says smell my anal vapor
And wipe my butt with your...
(Face?)
(Toilet paper!)

Yo, watch the beat!

I'm on your case, I'm in your face
Kick you and your father back in place
Step up sucker, understand
Don't you know that

I'm the man! I'm the man!
I'm bad! I'm so bad I
should be in detention!
I'm the man!

SHUT SHUT SHUT UP!

So, as this rap is winding down
It's plain to see we wear the crown
You know Anthrax is number one
But we don't care, we just wanna have...
(A festival!)
(Fun, you stupid idiot!)

Joey mailed the mail, the mail he mailed
We are the kings that all shall hail
We're like a diamond that is forever
And will remain the hardest ever

I'm so bad, it's a crime

AAH!, AAH!

NOT! NA-NA-NA-NA-NOT!

Imitation Of Life
Anthrax

[INTRO]
There's nothing I hate more, than all these plastic people
With all their plastic promises, and all their plastic deals
They just can't be themselves, and live their own lives out
They're just an imitation of what life's all about

"Because of me you are who you are
So sign your name, and you'll go far
I'm your friend, I think you should
So sign your name, it's for your own good"
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU HEARD THIS TODAY ???

Some bogus piss-on saying "Let's do lunch babe"
For them this bullshit, it's their whole life
Cut through their bullshit with a knife
IMITATION OF LIFE

[BRIDGE ONE]
OOOOOOOOH, OOOOH, OH
ANGER BURNS
Whatever happened to the guy I knew
A media creation, a monster grew
Our story had an unhappy end
But this could change, I still call him friend

"Take my advice, listen to me
A great opportunity, can't you see
I only want what's best for you
The deal of a lifetime, what more can I do"
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU HEARD THIS TODAY ???

Some stupid sucker says "It's great, we luv ya babe"
For them this bullshit, it's their whole life
Cut through their bullshit with a knife
IMITATION OF LIFE

[BRIDGE TWO:]
OOOOOOOOH, OOOOH, OH
ANGER BURNS
Bands dress like women, with hairspray and lace
I'd pass an image law, stick it in their face
Let's see how long they keep dressing this way
Wearing this image twenty four hours a day ...

[MOSH TALK PART]
DID YOU EVER THINK FOR YOURSELF ??
JUST ONCE, DID YOU EVER THINK ??
THAT'S ALL I WANT TO KNOW

[MOSH CHORUS PART]
IMITATION OF LIFE, Living out a lie
You'll never be right, IMITATION OF LIFE
WHY ARE YOU HERE ??, YOU'RE TAKING UP MY SPACE

The new imperfect race, IMITATION OF LIFE

[LEAD BREAK]

OOOOOOOOH, OOOOH, OH
ANGER BURNS
Whatever happened to the guy I knew
A media creation, a monster grew
Our story had an unhappy end
But this could change, I still call him friend
There's nothing I hate more
Than all these plastic people
With all their plastic promises
And all their plastic deals
They just can't be themselves
And live their own lives out
They're just an imitation
Of what life's all about
IMITATION OF LIFE

In A Zone
Anthrax

I¹m standing on a ledge cold and naked
Will someone come and offer me their help
Sometimes I forget my medication
Sometimes I forget to pray
I¹ll make it through this fuckin¹ day

I¹m unconscious, drunk and blinded
Count to ten and then I unwind it
I¹m unconscious, drunk and blinded
Take a deep breath and then I unwind it

I¹m wearing out my skin I¹m under pressure
Pressure makes me burn it makes me ache
Sometimes I want to burn the things that make me...
Sometimes I stop myself too late
It¹s written all cross my face

I¹m unconscious, drunk and blinded
Count to ten and then I unwind it
I¹m unconscious, drunk and blinded
Take a deep breath and then I unwind it

Wired, wired
I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone
This is how I live

I never have to justify my actions
Scathing rhetoric my saving grace
Sometimes I really think that it¹s too noisy
Sometimes I have to hit myself
Words can kill as well as help

I¹m unconscious, drunk and blinded
Count to ten and then I unwind it
I¹m unconscious, drunk and blinded
Take a deep breath and then I unwind it

Wired, wired
I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone
This is how I live

You can¹t touch me, ever
Fear burns at my touch

Standing on a ledge will you come and help
Will you burn yourself, would you help me then
Fear burns at my touch, in its wake
An ugly jagged scar across your face
I¹m unconscious, I¹m unconscious, I¹m unconscious, I¹m
unconscious
Count to ten, I¹m unconscious
Take a deep breath and then I unwind it

Wired, wired
I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone, This is how I ...
How I live, how I live, how I live, how I live
I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone, I¹m in a zone, this is how I live

In My World
Anthrax

They're gonna put me in jail?
Man, I'm already in jail
Don't they know that my life
Is just one big cell
I'll bite the hand that feeds me
And I could give a damn if that hand needs me
Why can't you leave me alone?
A lie may fool someone else
But it tells you the truth
You're weak, just another clone

I just want my life
To do whatever I like
Yeah, it's a selfish need
To have no responsibility
So I'll say what I'm gonna say
'Cause I'm going to hell anyway
I'd rather be alone
In my world
I'm not afraid
I am not afraid
Nothing touches me I'm a walking razor blade

Face the face of fear
Face the face of death
Laugh when others tear
Hate when others laugh
In my world it's cold
My defense is like stone
No one gets inside, 'cause
In my world I'm home
In my world I loathe

And you'll always pay a toll
No one gets inside, 'cause
In my world I'm home
An adult at thirteen
My childhood was a dream
A full clout nightmare, a sight unseen
My greatest fear as a kid
One which I always kept hid
Was to come home from school
And find my mother dead

Face the face of fear
Face the face of death
Laugh when others tear
Hate when others laugh
In my world it's cold
My defense is like stone
No one gets inside, 'cause
In my world I'm home
In my world I loathe
And you'll always pay a toll
No one gets inside, 'cause
In my world I'm home
Home!!!

In The End
Anthrax

Lone star was dark tonight
Our diamond shined so bright
I watched it go
Farther than he ever dreamed
I won't take it
No matter how I try
I can't stop asking why
'Cause something's broken
Scarred, it breaks my heart

I won't take it, I can't break it
In the end, I'm pounding on the door but
It's already over
Too little too late
In the end he'll be my light in the dark
For when the sun goes down
For when the sun goes down on me

And when the greatest falls
Heaven and Hell will can
Stand up and fight
On and on his memory screams
I can't take it
Stand up and fight withal
I won't take it, I can't break it

In the end, I'm pounding on the door but
It's already over
Too little too late
In the end they'll be my light in the dark
For when the sun goes down
For when the sun goes down
In the end, I'm kicking down the door and
I'm taking this over
I'm cleaning the slate
In the end they'll be my light in the dark
For when the sun goes down
For when the sun goes down on me

Did I thank you for our time together?
Did I thank you for making me better?
Did I thank you for being the one I would
Bleed and kill for
Did I thank you for tearing my head off
Ripping my heart out
Fucking my world!

Did we tell you know much that we loved you
Did we tell you you made our dreams come true
Did we tell you that you were the one, paving our way, the damage is done
Did we thank you for tearing our heads off
Ripping our hearts out
Fucking our world!

Indians
Anthrax

We all see black and white
When it comes to someone else's fight
No one ever gets involved
Apathy can never solve

FORCED OUT-Brave and Mighty
STOLEN LAND-They can't fight it
HOLD ON-To pride and tradition
Even though they know how much their lives are really missin'
WE'RE DISSIN THEM...

On reservations
A hopeless situation
Respect is something that you earn
Our indian brothers' getting burned
Original American
Turned into second class citizen

Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry, Cry, Cry for the Indians

Love the land and fellow man
Peace is what we strive to have
Some folks have none of this
Hatred and Prejudice

WARDANCE!!!

TERRITORY, It's just the body of the nation
The people that inhabit it make its configuration
PREJUDICE, Something we all can do without
Cause a flag of many colors is what this land is all about!!!!
