Speed Metal

"In all the years you spend between your birth and death You find there's lots of times you should have saved your breath It comes as quite a shock when that trip leads to fall"

"I tell you we are doomed my friends Our time is come, our time is come We live within a charnel house Rotten to the core We glorify lust, greed & pain We drown our hope in poison rain We point the finger, shift the blame Ambition makes us whores"

"Hellraiser, In the thunder and heat Hellraiser, Rock you back in your seat Hellraiser, And I'll make it come true Hellraiser, I'll put a spell on you"

"I'm living on an endless road Around the world for rock and roll Sometimes it feels so tough But I still ain't had enough I keep saying that it's getting too much But I know I'm a liar Feeling all right in the noise and the light But that's what lights my fire"

"I saw the millions, the naked and the dead I saw the city streets running bloody red I saw a thousand bombers circle in the sky I saw the firestorm fifty stories highI saw a hundred thousand scream and burn I saw the armored wheels grind and turn Universal soldier, doomed to live to tell Fight and die forever, burn in bloody hell"

"Why do they not believe I have not lied, even for this, Now no-one can conceive The lie becomes the loving kiss, But I would not, Fall in love, Like this."

"I am not the only one to walk into the fire I would rather burn than let them make me a liar I cannot be beaten, I cannot be like you I cannot be otherwise, no matter what you do"

"I will be the one you can't be I will see the things that you can't see Demons blind your eyes"

"Born to raise hell, Born to raise hell We know how to do it and we do it real well"

"We are your children grown and strange We are your children unashamed You breed contempt we mock you now We bring the shake to rock you now"

"Why the world is wicked I know the reason why Why the world is wicked I know that it's allowed I can never leave it the way it was before I can never disobey - the law"

"And so Daddy lies by his daughter's side And he sleeps deep and well No nightmares come to him tonight Though his daughter lives in hellFor his seed is sown where it should not be But the beast in his mind don't care And the only sound are tears that fell Little girl turns her face to the wall"

"Both your eyes wide open You see the shape I'm in It wasn't of my choosing It's only bones and skin And I will plead no contest If loving you's a crime So go on and find me guilty Just one more fucking time"

"Hey, what the hell Get out of your shell Time to get back to when truth was all true Get me some danger Get me a stranger Time to be counted and pay up my dues Stand or fall Get ourselves something that we can believe Fight or crawl Use what you find in yourself to succeed Stand or fall Wearing your heart on your sleeve"

"You must be much braver boy, Than you ever dreamed, Or your world will be destroyed, By the small and mean, You must stand, and fight them hard, You must never run, You must be a shining star, Do what must be done, Don't you ask me why and how, You must lift the spell, Life could be much more than this, Unless we've Gone to Hell."

"The tales they tell, of how we stood this day We few that know the law Will last a thousand years Hear now the dogs of war"

"People talkin' but they just don't know Ain't got no pride no more Want to be on TV so bad They give away all the honour they had Ain't no way I can see that people gonna listen to me But I know what I know And I'll see more than you'll ever show"

"When your name is spoken Then Your soul awakes as well And there is no limit to the power of the spell You can never leave it You can never let it lie You must find the speaker For one of you must die"

"Nobody ever wants to hear the truth, Too much like taking blame, The way we are we are the living proof, Bad news boogie and sunk in shame."

"We are trapped in luxury, starving on parole, No one told us who to love, we have sold our souls. Why do we vote for faceless dogs? We always take the bait. All things come to he who waits, but all things come too late."

"We know all the rules! We know more than you would like- (cuz) we ain't in your school!"

"Ridin fast out of the sunset, Devils and horses advance, Thunder and lightning and honour, The army of saber and lance, Every man somber and focused, Each man looks to the fore, Death is the life we are living, Hungry for battle and war"

"You must do what you desire You must save your soul entire You must figure out what works And don't you be a liar Can't be a liar"

"You really have no choice You have to make a noise Silence ain't an option now We have to hear your voice We got to hear your voice"

"We are worse than animals, we hunger for the kill. We put our faith in maniacs the triumph of the will, We kill for money, wealth and lust, for this we should be damned. We are disease upon the world, brotherhood of man."

"Politicians kissing babies for good luck T.V. preachers sell salvation for a buck You don't need no golden cross to tell you wrong from right The world's worst murderers were those who saw the light"

"Don't chase after money, you are gonna lose your soul, Same for religion, out of control, Don't fall for money, or heroine again, Needles for your enemies, bullshit for your friends, The way we're going, same as we came, Bought the fucking picture and we're playing for the frame. Everybody asking you when they gonna die, I think that they should be askin' why."

"The prince of wounds, the lord of flies Evil within ourselves We need nobody else We tell ourselves the best of lies"

"So that's the story, what you see is what you get, No doubt there's better men than me But I ain't met one yet No doubt the dancer calls the tune, So you can call on me I'm all I've got, and what I am is what I'll be"

"Another battle's over, it's a million soldiers Never rise again, we lost a million friends Don't try to understand, if you weren't there You felt different then, marching off to war"

"And so the path is made for us, And so we bring the plague with us, We are the ones you made of us, You'll never understand, We bear your names but not your guilt, We do not like the world you built, Poisoned, ruined to the hilt, In a bastard land."

"You better find a reason why you should be alive. If you're just a taker, then you might as well check out, that's all."

"So you see, the only proof, Of what you are is in the way you see the truth, Don't be scared, live to win, Although they're always gonna tell you it's a sin, In the end, you're on your own, And there is no-one that can stop you being alone, Stay Clean."

"Only way to feel the noise is when it's good and loud, So good you can't believe it's screaming with the crowd, Don't sweat it, get it back to you, Overkill, Overkill"

"I always knew, the only way, Is never live, beyond today, They proved me right, They proved me wrong, But they could never last this long, My life, my heart, black night, dark star, Capricorn"

"One day one day, they'll go for the sun, Together they'll slide, on the eternal run, Wasted forever, on speed bikes and booze, Yeah tramp and the brothers, all born to lose, On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies, Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life"

"World in prison screams in pain, There are no leaders you can blame, Human greed destroys your sphere, And there's no room for you out here, You're on your own now."

"My Father, he used to be a Preacher, Never taught me nothing but scorn, If I ever catch him on the street, yeah, I'll make him wish he'd never been born, He was Poison, Guess he poisoned my life He was Poison, I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no!"

"Television screams, your face turning green, Don't listen to the news, Don't know what you hear, they never make it clear, They like to keep your state confused, Propaganda time, the official line, You're hungry, you get fed, Everlasting smile, you must convey their style, But they're just a Talking Head"

"Motörhead, remember me now Motörhead, alright"

"From the wastelands of destruction With the fire we hold inside Rise again, still glorious For the power of all mankind"

"A star shines in all of us, we'll search for all our lives, One day we'll find a way, and a reason to survive, Cry for the day to return, life no one can understand,Our past lives return to us all. Our memories will fly free forever. So far from the cries of the world for eternity."

"United, incited, not misguided We'll fight through time before our one true destiny Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided This day foretold now here for all to see"

"Call for us, the power in all of us, So far beyond the blackened sky tonight... Glorious, forever more in us, We are victorious, and so alive."

"Stand before the worlds of freedom Rise above them all Ride towards the battle raging Victory behold Blackened steel of death tonight Our legions now descend Far beyond the gates of glory Time to rise again"

"Rise above the universe tonight, Starchaser..."

"Forever hold the dream inside, the chance to fight another fight."

"Our steel will shine forever"

"Free from this world, here for the last time, Oceans collide inside of us all, Believe who we are, The phoenix will guide us, Freedom will rise once again."

"Now here we stand with their blood on our hands We fought so hard now can we understand I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can For freedom of every man"
