I am the sledgehammer messiah
Waiting for sins to be born
And if you stop for a moment
You can hear the machines
Are playing your song
There's nowhere to run
And nowhere to speak
I'm gaining you're falling
Into me
Tell me you piece of shit
How does it feel
To be down here with me?
Living, living
Dreaming dreaming
Drowning, drowning

Chainheart machine
By cosmic retribution
I've been sent

Cause I'll rise
(I'll rise)
You'll fall
(You'll fall)
Roll the dice!
(Roll the dice)
My call
My call

Tick tock, time to die
No use reaching as time goes by
Self absorbed egotistical fuck!
I'm reigning your life!

Chainheart machine
By cosmic retribution
I've been sent

Cause I'll rise
(I'll rise)
You'll fall
(You'll fall)
Roll the dice!
(Roll the dice)
My call
My call

Preaching for the sun
They say there
They say there is a sun
So I'm preaching
Im preaching for the sun
They say there
They say there is a sun

-Solos-

My body is chained to
The ground where I walk
They stalk they hunt
My every thought with
Execution, evolution
Disillusion, pre-conclusion
Why is it me?

Chainheart machine
Your suffering
Will be legendary
Even in hell!

Cause I'll rise
(I'll rise)
You'll fall
(You'll fall)
Roll the dice!
(Roll the dice)
My call
My call

Cause I'll rise
(I'll rise)
You'll fall
(You'll fall)
Roll the dice!
(Roll the dice)
My call
My call

Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the mightiest of them all
Every little question
None who will be answered
Staring at the bulletbeast
Pointing his gun

Killing, there's nothing
In my seeing what's wrong
Running, or is it just that I'm
Fearing, in fears for your lives
You scream like a pig
Thrilling, my pulse will go up
And yours will go down!

Why? why?
I'm in for the quest
There's no turning back
Once you've tried
Why? why?
You're all laid to rest
The bullet is sent by the king

Once again
I'll tell you my friend
Don't trust anything
You'll see
Redrum overdose
Telling no lies
My triggerfinger is divine

Hatelights
Aim at the chest
Fire at will
Lesson
A lesson in pain
Waiting for
Vengeance
Chasing my footsteps
Not to be found
Instruction
Instructor unknown
But he will proceed!

Why? Why?
But you wont resist
I'm back once again
I will kill
Why? Why?
I'm put to the test
I'll never go down
To the ground!

So you wanna play rough?
Say hello to my little friend
With my finger on the trigger
You're watching the judge of today

Killing, there's nothing
In my seeing what's wrong
Running, or is it just that I'm
Fearing, in fears for your lives
You scream like a pig
Thrilling, my pulse will go up
And yours will go down!

Why? why?
I'm in for the quest
There's no turning back
Once you've tried
Why? why?
You're all laid to rest
The bullet is sent by the king

-Solo-

Last time, last sign
My face have turned to dust
Underground, no sound
Of human innocence

Hatelights
Aim at the chest
Fire at will
Lesson
A lesson in pain
Waiting for
Vengeance
Chasing my footsteps
Not to be found
Instruction
Instructor unknown
But he will proceed!

Why? Why?
But you wont resist
I'm back once again
I will kill
Why? Why?
I'm put to the test
I'll never go down
To the ground!

. . .


Inside you, I feel you from inside, satisfaction built on sin
Condamn everything who says what is wrong
Drown in my eyes, no need to deny I scream!
Feel my devil inside you, gaining!
Reaching diabolic speed!

I reach, I feel you're lost
Millions of flames in your eyes

I command the gods of time
Make this dream never end
Imagination?
Evil salvation?
Red light city makes you burn
Oceans of immortal speed
I'm the hand sweeping over midnights lands

...So sell your soul and be mine!

I decide if you will rise
Total control! I'm in your veins
I reach, I grip your mind
Never surrender

. . .


Maximize my pleasure maximize my pain
Til a ben heaven send in this downward spiral with no end
Angelface filled with sin i will lick it clean. Fixate my eyes to the tv scream

Treasurize this entertainment now!
By public demand we work for this pleasure.

Mesmerize my god mesmerize my blood
From his mind to his spine we will make him doubt about his might!

Treasurize this entertainment now!
This is where we stand until we fall

(Chorus)
Generation speedkill operation seedspill (x2)

Brutalize my lifetime brutalize my thoughts
In a trance, last dance for mr. moralize

(Chorus)

On this open road of no regrets
Born on a plate, food for velvet lies

(Repeat First Verse)

Sterilize this moment of truth that we stand for!
This is where we stand until we fall!
Treasurize this entertainment now!
This is where we stand until we fall!

(Repeat Chorus)

. . .


Staring through the eyes of a cosmic breed
Through distant skies above the fields
Another face another dimension. A broken circle of human attention
Around making my way through the desert plains
I'm a legend a gift from the gods, sirens scream there is no rest
A diary of a tragical life in this nest

[Chorus]
Screaming for victory... Neon rebels will rise
Breaking down the barricades... Nailed to the skies

Riding on the winds at the speed of light
Selfish pride is a rebel's might. Cosmic warfare a taste of my life
A gallery of a lifetime under the knife.
An endless voyage in an endless time, remind thoughts of an ancient sign
Staring through the eyes of a cosmic breed through distant skies above the fields
Destructive thoughts in a narrow void, another mission in galaxy 2001

[Chorus]

[Repeat First Verse]

[Chorus]
Killing to stay alive - madness rules here again tear away the golden skies
Neon rebels will reign!

. . .


Like the cold sweat running down your backs
I'll be there to make your lives a living hell
I'm your eyes in disguise... Silverspoon meltdown!

Break me! Kill me! I'm standing inn your way
Condamn me! Punish me! I am you're poison wine

Inside your temples of fortune and lies
You obey your power and might. I'm your headaches
I'm your agonies... Giant walls of steel!
You can't repair all the work you have done lies burning bright in your mind
I will never go down no needs to be found... I am your hell!

Break me! Kill me! I penetrate your pride
Condamn me! Punish me! You can't break down my walls

I am the one the evil son. I am the one with the darkened sun
Possessing the angels!

Feel the smell of crimson sweet sin
Your lies are weak and much to thin
I'll never die and i'll tell you why... My jealousy is killed!

I am the one the evil son. I am the one with the darkened sun
Possessing the angels!

. . .


Total oblivion of my inner past. Will i ever be the same again
Landscapes of treasures before my eyes
Now its over forget the past

(Chorus)
Spirits...of the...future sun
Spirits of the future sun!!

Legal lies and desperate cries I cannot see
I'm on my own self destructive and the anguish of youth
Futures rising in your mind!

(Repeat Chorus)
Your spirits wait for me in vain! I won't fall!

Sun burns red on the innocent child
Twisted rules by incommon souls computerized
Pathetic lies the lights are out... Here comes the war!

(Repeat Chorus)
Your spirits wait for me in vain! i wont fall! (x2)

(Repeat First Verse)
(Chorus)

. . .


I play the game of piercing fear. Is this the only sound ill ever hear?
Of hate I'll rise of this perennial demise!
Well if I ever should fall from this earth...
Would there be anything left of me?

Come feel the need of piercing steel penetrating your hope!
We suffer, yes we suffer... in this pit of hell
The pulsating hatelights who will deform?
Total devastation just catches your eye!
Take a trip inside of me! Theres all I need!
Of hate I'll rise of this perennial demise!
Cause we've cried bloodstained walls on every fucking side!

Come feel the need of piercng steel penetrating your hope!

[Chorus]
Kill kill machinegun majesty!
Just steal steal come steal my night

The nights are long as well as the war
They pull my strings whenever they want a feelings just reach us
A feeling of insecurity of strength i'll rise of this miserable disguise
[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat First Verse]

[Chorus]
Kill kill machine gun majesty just spill spill come spill our blood
Kill kill machinegun majesty just steal steal forever stealing my life!

. . .


Trying to hold back the jaws of mankind
Trying to avoid their hysteric lives
Where I walk or where I stand underground or no mans land
My eyes will always see what they've always seen
My ears will always hear what they've always heard

(Chorus)
Cause I'm back in room no. 99! I could stay there for a lifetime!
Cause I'm back in room no. 99! When universe is on my side!

Can't pay the price of a madly game
I'm a victim who will stay the same
Where I talk or where I go. Something tells me that it hurts me so
Hungry rebels cut my way They steal and others have to pay
Spit or swallow thats a fact. I'm going back going back!

(Chorus)
Cause I'm back in room no. 99! You can be blind there for a lifetime!
Cause I'm back in room no. 99! When universe is on your side!

No! No! No!
My eyes will never see what they've used to see!
My ears will never hear what they've used to hear!

(Repeat First Chorus)
