There's nothing wrong
With what you do and what you say
There's nothing wrong
Pure will will get you through
Why
can't you see you're in my way?
Your ways are killing you
Do what thou wilt
Shall be the whole of the law
Do what thou
wilt
All they understand is the claw
Why can't you see you're in my way?
Your ways are killing you
Your ways are
killing me
Killing me
Killing you
So go fuck yourself anyway
Keep this hunger
There's nothing wrong
With how I
live my life today
There's nothing wrong
So go fuck yourself anyway
Why can't you see you're in my way?

Every time you speak my name
My image it just burns away
Every time you speak my name
My image it just burns away
Gimme that

I could care less than for your grandiosity
I had to skin the cat for curiosity
I could care less than for
your sickening, pompous ways
Every time you speak my name my image burns away

I could care less

Don't you know our
lives are on trial now
And if we lose we're going straight to Hell

Gimme that

You must excuse me I'm just really not
myself
Woke up today inside, inside of someone else
I could care less than for your sickening, pompous ways
Every time you
speak my name my image burns away

I could care less

Don't you know our lives are on trial now
And if we lose we're
going straight to Hell
Straight to Hell

I could care less
Straight to Hell

Blood is my life
Blood is the road
Every time I have to write another hate song
This is the last great hate song
Scorned is this life
Scarred is my soul
Every time I have to write another hate song
This is the last great hate song
Let's get it out, let's get it straight
I wish you were dead

Don't mistake kindness for weakness
Front and center for
another ass-kicking
Don't mistake
survival for forgiveness
Front and center for another ass-whooping
I am the dog that forever bites back
Forever on attack,
watching my back
I am the dog that forever bites back
Forever on attack, watching my back

Die and die now
I wish you
were dead

Feast on life
The beast, the road
Every time I have to write another hate song
This is the last great hate
song

Let's get it out, let's get it straight
I wish you were dead

Don't mistake mercy for forgiveness
Front and
center for another life lesson
Don't forgive, damn sure don't forget
Damn sure won't forget
I am the dog that forever bites back
Forever on
attack, watching my back
I am the dog that forever bites back
Forever on attack, watching my back

Die and die now
I
wish you were dead
Die...

Curses from my life
Curses from my soul
This is the last great hate song
This is the last
great hate song

Damn sure won't forget...die
Damn sure won't forget...die
Damn sure won't forget...die
Damn sure won't
forget...die

Destroy all or nothing

I dreamed I died, ended up at the gates of Heaven
Greeted by a man Saint someone, said how's the
ride son?
It's been alright, at times a little rough, why am I here?
You did alright, lived a little dark and that's alright

'Cause we made the darkside and the rightside is to have no fear, no fear

My whole life flashed in front of me
I saw
everything that I was and what I had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And
then I heard damn boy you done good
Did the every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn
good

When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will
destroy all or nothing
When the sky opened up and the clouds parted clear
There wasn't any doubt to why I was here
And I
knew I'd done a good job, the best job that I could do
So now it was time to move on, to get on, to get back
To the question
of why I was here and what I had learned, no fear
My whole life flashed in front of me
I saw everything that I was and what I
had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And then I heard damn boy you done
good
Did every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn good
When you hear the call, bury
them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing

My whole life
flashed in front of my eyes
Goddamn, wake up, bad dream, bad dream
When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or
nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing

Right!
Let's move, move!

In this life I've known nothing but seeds you've sown
I've walked the highways and I've
combed the side roads
It's been a joy of highs, oh the pain of lows
I met the Devil at the heart of the crossroads
I share
a soul with a hunting hound
My blood's a red river that flows through every town
No
Have you ever felt like I have?

Cry
for me sky
Cry for me, scorned, scorned

Live this life insane, nothing but pouring rain
I'm an outlaw, it's amazing I'm
sane
Born and dressed in black, my soul is fighting back
Fueling Hell and raising cain, cain, cain
No
Have you ever felt
like I have?

Cry for me sky

Right
Get the fuck up, get up...

When I'm a ghost and gone, I'll be remembered strong -
By all I've met, by friends and family
When I'm lowered down, six feet in the ground
There won't be a sound except for crows
wailing

Cry for me sky


. . .



Storm coming in me, bad weather just makes me breathe
Watch as the sky turns grey, life ebbs and flows away
Wait, before I
go, I'll make them all eat crow
Play the hand life deals, everything my way, now kneel
I'm a tree, roots firm in dirt, I've
had my share of hurt
Move fast 'cause the time is short, 'cause the time is short

Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now
to win
And I'm building this mountain from outside within
All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just
counting so come meet the mountain

Storm, strength coming on strong, rain wash away life's wrongs
Willing straight from the
start, strike fear into their heart
Sometimes you wish you'd never been born but then here comes the storm
And just as the
sky turns black, the voices say attack
Move fast 'cause the time is short, 'cause the time is short
Move fast 'cause the time
is short, 'cause the time is short

Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now to win
And I'm building this mountain from outside
within

All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just counting so come meet the mountain

Come meet the mountain
Falling, life
Life ebbs and flows away
Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now to win
And I'm building this mountain from
outside within
All you haters and liars just come meet the mountain


. . .



What do I have to do...for this?

I love this, please push me harder
I just keep getting meaner
I'm growing from the pain

How about you! Shit

Life, it's hard, it makes me stronger
A warrior seeking victory
I'll push it 'til the end, push it
'til the end
Push it 'til the end, shit the end, shit the end

Knee deep in the shit
All together in the pit
All forever
in the shit for this

Pirate, poet, fucking killer
It's all what you've made me
What has life made you
Made you, shit -

Life, chalk it up to desire
Of which I've had my fill
I just keep pushing forward, keep pushing forward still
Keep
pushing forward still, shit, still, shit, still

Knee deep in the shit
All together in the pit
All forever in the shit for
this

So if you feel the need, bring it, bring it
And if you just want to spit it out, bring it, bring it
And if you just
see your way clear then, bring it, bring it

Knee deep in the shit
All together in the pit
All forever in the shit for
this

Knee deep in the shit
For this
Knee deep in the shit
For this

On a day-to-day there's no way most men make it through
I got to tell you now
Family tied to me, I'm doing just what I got
to do
I got to tell you now
All a man's got is his word and to keep himself free
Do with your life what you will, stay away
from my family
Born blue collar been working since I was thirteen
My father was up at five and broke his back to keep us
clean
My mother sweated and slaved and suffered for the family
So when you push me don't think that I won't shove
I got to
tell you now

What does it take to be a man, what does it take!?!

On a day-to-day there's no way most men make it through

I got to tell you now
Family tied to me, I'm doing just what I got to do
I got to tell you now
When I was a young man I
was told to take a stand
And damn it boy, you better stick to a plan
So on a day-to-day you better walk a man's path
Learn
how to walk a man's mile, get that game face smile
Don't put up with people who get in your way
And when you push don't think
that I won't shove
I got to tell you now

What does it take to be a man, what does it take!?!

Work!!!

What does it
take to be a man, what does it take!?!

Swinging the dead

Get it up, pick it up, chilling thrilling sounds of the rock 'n roll haunted
It's the graveyard sound
with the monster thrash for the demon haunted
Get it up, dig 'em up, chilling thrilling sounds of the rock 'n roll haunted -
It's the graveyard sound, it's the graveyard sound for the evil-hearted
Ride if you like, ride if you like

Swinging the
dead, swinging the dead
Deathride

Go

Pick it up, fuck it up, this swinging sound it's got them moving
It's the
graveyard sound, it's the evil sound, this demon's got heart
Pick it up, fuck it up, this swinging sound it's got them moving -
You scream for blood, you scream for flesh, just keep the bodies
Moving

Swinging the dead, swinging the dead
Deathride -

Go and swing it!!

Get it, up pick it up, chilling thrilling sounds of the rock 'n roll haunted
It's the graveyard sound
with the monster thrash for the demon haunted
Pick it up, fuck it up, this swinging sound it's got them moving
You scream for
blood, you scream for flesh, keep the bodies moving
Ride if you like, ride if you like, deathride

Swinging the dead, swinging
the dead
Deathride

Don't you worry about their kind
They'll be gone long after time
We'll be here, yes we'll be fine, we'll be fine
All the
treasure that they sought
Has led them, bled them, just fear not
All their souls, their souls were bought, ours were not -
When they think your scene
All they think, the green
Don't you know just what I mean, just what I mean
All the treasure
that they sought
Has led them, bled them, just fear not
All their souls, their souls were bought, ours were not
Revelation
machine --
move
Revelation machine --
get up and move

We are bringing what is raw
We are bringing tooth and claw
Oh
your show, yes that I saw, yes that I saw
But after two times it got old
Yes the story it got cold
After two times it got
old, bought and sold
Join me now in saying fuck
Join me now in saying you
Join me know in saying fuck you, fuck you
All
the treasure that they sought
Has led them, bled them, just fear not
All their souls, their souls were bought, ours were
not

Revelation machine --
move
Revelation machine --
get up and move
Revelation, revelation, revelation, revelation

Come, here, with, me, now, it's, the trip, it's so good
Come here with me now
Come here with me now

Revelation,
revelation, revelation
Revelation machine --
move
Revelation machine --
get up and move
Revelation, revelation, revelation,
revelation

Meet the wretched
It's calling, calling

So, you're bored and you're sitting
Your soul is fitting
Let's go to town and
meet the wretched
I hear, they say, night time is calling
The sky is falling
Let's go to town and meet the wretched
Every
time we go to town we're taking what they're giving
Let's go downtown and take a drink, we're taking shit from no one

To
fight to win to gain ground, gain ground
To kick up dust and gain ground, gain ground
To fight to win to gain ground, gain
ground
Come and meet the
Come and meet the wretched tonight

So you're bored, of home you tire
Then let's conspire -
Let's go downtown and meet the wretched
See, I told you, it's what we desire
All Hell fire
Let's go downtown and meet the
wretched
Every time we go to town we're taking what they're giving
Let's go downtown and take a drink, we're taking shit from
no one

To fight to win to gain ground, gain ground
To kick up dust and gain ground, gain ground
To fight to win to gain
ground, gain ground
Come and meet the
Come and meet the wretched tonight

Sell our souls for a good time tonight
We're
here to drink, we're here to fight
We'll set our wicked nature free
We'll fuck the moon and mourn the stars tonight
Mourn
the stars tonight
We'll get so high we'll commune with the beast
We'll go so big there'll be nothing left of us
For the
mourning

Go and meet the wretched
Go and meet the wretched
Wretched, wretched

It's in the air, we may die tonight

I'm living my life fast and free
It's in the air, we may die tonight
So tonight it's fast as fuck

Go and meet the
wretched
Go and meet the wretched
Wretched, wretched

Fast
as fuck
The wretched

I am the one, I am the one that you need
I am the one, I am the one that you need

The Devil's son has just begun
To shine, to shine

I am the one to do the deed, I am
I am the one to do the deed
I am

I am the one

I am the one, I am the one that you need
I am the one, I am the one Two
I am the

The Devil's son has just begun
To shine, to shine, to shine

What's left unsaid
Yeah
things come around
This is the one this is

This is the one this is

The Devil's son has just begun
To shine, to shine,
to shine

Fire
