Savage heat is searing
Global warming has begun Mother Earth is reeling No protection from the sun Forest fires are raging While the rivers turn to ice Foolish man creating Mother Nature's cruel demise Hailstorms, tornadoes Cold spells, untimely frosts Heat waves and blizzards Global death's the cost Faces the end of time As we plunge headlong towards the day Can't deny the signs When the sun burns red The earth will turn From blue to gray Winter turns to summer Then the seasons disappear No one needs a prophet To explain what's all too clear Oceans overflowing Islands drowning everywhere Leaders wouldn't admit it Now they're crying in despair Hailstorms, tornadoes Cold spells, untimely frosts Heat waves and blizzards Global death's the cost Face the end of time As we plunge headlong towards the day Can't deny the signs When the sun burns red The earth will turn From blue to gray Now rain shall wash away sad remains of man Cities once so proud will crumble into sand Buildings all collapse when all is done and said The guilty ones will die with the innocent... When the sun burns red |

Masters of war Merchants of false peace Bleeding the lives of the lost Feeding them terminal disease Breaking the rules No matter who gets hurt Wholesaling useless trash Charging twice what it's worth Freedom of thought a mirage The coma is endless and deep Feeling so worldly and wise Fooled by the friends that we keep Spirits on ice They'll never be free One-dimensional lives Will the coma of souls outlive eternity Children are pawns For generals to play with and kill Mercy will never be found Where mayhem is done for the thrill Righteous crusades Murder to honor a god ? No one is saved Dead bodies shrivel and rot (Second chorus) SOLO - FRANK SOLO - MILLE Deep in the unconscious mind Lies the oldest wisdom Buried by centuries Of war and inquisition Truth is raped and crucified By men with savage brains And greed flows forth in endless waves >From fools to wretched slaves |

Don't look at me as if I didn't know
Your vanity is all you ever show What you believe and advocate Fanatic dogma recycled from yesterday Got a master plan Genocide Can't understand People of the lie You are to me the waste of flesh and blood I'd love to see you buried in the mud And when you die no one will shed a tear So pass me by don't need your hatred here Got a master plan Genocide Can't understand People of the lie Prejudice, intolerance, eye for an eye [SOLO - FRANK] You cannot hide behind those empty claims Your racist pride is nothing but a game And you will lose for right is on the side Of those who choose to fight for humankind Got a master plan Genocide Can't understand People of the lie You can't believe Don't be deceived |

My inner eye sees many spheres
A cruel dimension where time and space Distort beyond control A ride to another center of the Universe My thoughts come undone make me see The dark stains on my soul A darkness as cold as ice surrounds me in this place I probe a veiled phobia, all my own Creatures crawl out from my weirdest, Wildest dreams They are flesh, not fantasy, They drag me inside the... Terror zone Demons, ghouls, and fiends that once I could ignore Shred the skin and flesh from my bones Planets form and die, The cosmos torment me Unnatural, humongous, never ending... Terror zone Now I know what dwells within me Blood - a river of sweat and tears Flesh - a land God left behind Soul - a sky of cloudy fears Deception and disguise Dissolve before my inner eyes My heart turns to stone God, I'm all alone Oh, no! All alone Terror zone... |

No shape, no form, no brain, no mind
But the power to control all resistance Its awesome might cannot be denied By the world that ignores its existence Older than time - stranger than life Don't look for a sign without warning it will arrive It can read your mind See the world inside Oversees your life Decides the day you die Silent lifetaker Sentient creator Worlds recoil in fear Of the hidden dictator [SOLO - FRANK] [SOLO - MILLE] Presence beyond our imagination Horrible being of fate Not one sign of its domination God prays it never awakes Older than time - stranger than life Don't look for a sign without warning it will arrive It can read your mind See the void inside Oversees your life Decides the day you die Silent lifetaker Sentient creator Worlds recoil in fear Of the hidden dictator Worlds have risen, lived and died under its obscene command Kept the balance of galaxies in its omnipotent hands [SOLO - FRANK] Minds of greedy distortion All are destroyed in its wake It judges the worth of the low forms of life Who cower and quiver and quake Some may call it the savior Fall to their bellies and pray Some will try to resist in the hope they'll exist To experience just one more day And the lost shall pray for forgiveness And the fearful and weak start to scream As the terrible nightmare of a dying world Becomes beauty beyond any dream One world must end New ones begin A pure life form From death is born Silent lifemaker Sentient creator The new world is blessed by the hidden dictator |

Land of solitude
A place of horror dark and cruel There's no need to seek the truth Opinions are provided for you Innocence of youth Full of visionary fantasies From subconscious laboratories Try to break the chains of barbarity Servants to mother machine Nursed by video screens Paradise of insanity Born into a grave of Mental slavery Lost in dark reality Mental slavery Memories of the past Holy empires of harmony Visions only children see Are soon removed by society Replaced by numbing fear The horror show of rules sets in Total control of thought begins Another car on the highway of sin Servants to mother machine Nursed by video screens Paradise of insanity Born into a grave of Mental slavery Lost in dark reality Mental slavery Just one of a million slaves An expendable commodity This song's for those who serve The system of terror That rules the earth |
