Ed Sheeran & Copyright

There is no such thing as new music anymore. They are all copies of what's been before

Led Zeppelin lifted stuff ranging from the blues artists of the deep south from the mid 1900s to Jimi Hendrix blues licks. If you listen to enough music you'll hear it in Page's playing.

The chords in the background are practically identical - BUT this is bound to happen with so many songs - doesn't equate to copying.

Marvin Gaye's estate just sues everyone it seems. In and out of court every year looking for money

Every song has influenced another song written. Gospel to soul, soul to rock, rock to pop. It doesn't matter. As long as it's a riff we love.

Chord progression may be similar, but then chord progression is not generally protected by copyright as every musical artist knows.The melody however is protected but in the case here is not the same at all, so the claim has no validity. A judge may decide differently but then such persons make wrong decisions daily! He would only be a busker if he had been plying his trade in the eighties.

There are bound to be similarities between musical compositions, it happens in classical music too.

Marvin Gaye's family are going after everyone. The similarities between Got To Give It Up and Blurred Lines are obvious but the others are such a stretch it's almost laughable

I watched someone explain how they are similar and he literally had to slow the song right down and show a couple of specific chord arrangements which were the same. The same they may be but the connection was so tenuous given the final pieces sound completely different. I think the sole determinant is to put 100 people in a room, play both tracks and ask them are they similar? If 50% says yes then guilty of copying and if not then no guilty. It's doesn't matter what the underlying music looks like. It only matters if they sound similar.The US. The most litigious country in the entire world. If there's a sniff of a quick buck to be made, the Yanks are all over it.

Same chord structure which can't be helped as there are exact chord structures on many songs because it's impossible to invent anything different on that side of things. Lyrically and melodically it's totally different. Can't see this lasting long. Look up "4 chords axis of awesome" on YouTube there are literally hundreds of songs with exactly the same chord structure.

There are a limited amount of chords used in modern pop music, they've been recycling them over and over for the past 50 years! There are going to be similarities in most music, is it unoriginal? yes. Is it bland? Yes. Is it copyright infringement?...... no, it's just management companies, estates of passed musicians and lawyers out to make a quick hundred million.

There are only so many notes to use and there has been so many songs written of course some songs may sound similar. These cases are silly - just people trying to get other peoples riches

Sheeran is not an artist in the true sense...he releases lots of songs at one time he had 7 out in the top 20 at the same time...It's a business for him to get to being a Billionaire as quickly as he can..

So at some point in the future, no new music will be created as all new music will be too similar to old music.

Surely the purpose of copyright should be to protect the composer from infringements of their material, not to stifle creativity. I imagine a computer programmer could write an algorithm to find hundreds of similarities between popular tunes without any of them being deliberately copied.

Marvin Gaye's family have a lawyer who basically listens to the works of every successful artist in the hope that there is some similarity in songs. I like Marvin Gaye's stuff but it wasn't like he invented modern music like his family and their accountants think.

I always find these cases utterly stupid. There are only so many combinations of musical notation you can have and at some point you'll have degrees of overlap. To be taking these matters to court is just pure time and money wasting.

The sheer volume of songs that have been churned out since the 50s and 60s means the sequences of a few musical notes is bound to be repeated at some point. It's statistics and maths. . These people are really grasping at straws to cash in on other people's success

Marvin Gaye's family is very aggressive about his intellectual property. This is not the first, nor will it be the last. To quote the composer Igor Stravinsky, "Good composers borrow, Great ones steal". Frankly, Gaye has been gone for 38 years. Most of the songs that composers have borrowed from are 50 years and older. His heirs who did nothing to deserve their windfall have become fat on the royalties of his music and the length of time should be shortened to 50 years after the composition was released to the public

It's all a bit ridiculous in my view since the those claiming infringement had zero to do with the production of the tracks that they claim have been infringed, like they didn't write, record, perform, pay for, promote or produce any of it themselves, they just bought or inherited the estate of those who did. It's my opinion that once the creators of a piece of music have passed away that the rights over that music should just become public license, currently the cut off is around seventy years after they've passed leading to all this absurd litigations, the Hendrix estate, the Marvin Gaye estate are cases in point, they are so jealously heavy handed and litigious and it's not good for the art itself, Hendrix is fading away even among modern guitarists because his estate just won't allow his tracks to continue propagating to new audiences without their unearned cut and his established old fans are dying off, its criminal really

Chord progression, timing and groove are identical if you just listen to the music. That is more coincidence than copy and certainly not intentional.

If you try hard enough, your taste in music is wide enough and you have listened to enough tunes, you can hear familiarity in almost any piece of music written. And the influence of music that spans decades is widely accepted as being influential in song-writing today. It would have to be a note for note copy with the same length and emphasis, the same intervals and timing throughout a piece of work for it to be claimed "a copy".

Armed To The Teeth

Stand down and change your course, don't come at me push back, looks like an attack, hostility

Well, I'm not the same as anyone you ever knew absolutely no idea what I could do to you

Ballistic, sadistic, beyond belief try me, defy me, I'm armed to the teeth

Charge on, ignore the warning, a hundred megatons prepare annihilation, now DEFCON 1

Ballistic, sadistic, beyond belief try me, defy me, I'm armed to the teeth,

Man up, admit the damage, stand up and rebuild

Ballistic, sadistic, beyond belief try me, defy me, I'm armed to the teeth

Out With The Garbage

Year after year, I'm just playing the part, serving to better your needs,

Giving and living to pacify you and labor in your rotten deeds,

Numb to the feelings once trapped in your Hell, you are the greatest mistake,

The yelling, the screaming, just blocking it out, living a nightmare awake

Out with the old in with the new,

Out with the garbage I'll win without you

Taking advantage and making the time, day after day, work on me,

Brainwash with your bulldozer psychology,

Dirty and rude, putting up with the stench, so many things not to miss,

The pushing, the shoving, uncaring, unloving, blind to the force of your fist

Out with the old in with the new,

Out with the garbage I'll win without you

Cleansed of the past, just a sick memory wiped from the face of the earth,

Gone from my mind, not too long I can find someone who values my worth

Year after year, I'm just playing the part, serving to better your needs,

Giving and living to pacify you and labor in your rotten deeds,

Numb to the feelings once trapped in your Hell, you are the greatest mistake,

The yelling, the screaming, just blocking it out, living a nightmare awake

Out with the old in with the new,

Out with the garbage I'll win without you

Dressed Up For Evil

Put on your best suit and pick out your tie,

Cover up the hooves a Devil in disguise

Jump in your fancy car women, a plaything,

Everyone's inferior All hail the King

Like Damien from The Omen a business camouflage,

Hanging with your worshipers your phony entourage

Blending in with all of us pretending to be wise

A smell of rotten flesh fending off the flies

Dressed for evil dressed up for evil

Dressed for evil dressed up for evil

So condescending rotten to the core,

Everyone's beneath you put them down some more

Tempting with currency preying on the greed,

Extend the family with demon seed

People are just property amassing your net worth,

Building up the empire right here on Earth

Delusions, illusions all a fantasy,

No guilty conscience a moral bankruptcy

Dressed for evil dressed up for evil

Dressed for evil dressed up for evil

World's undone overrun He's the one Hell has come

The reign is over good has overcome,

Dealing with the aftermath the healing has begun

Blend in with all of us you tell us all your lies,

No one believes you You're the Devil in disguise

Dressed for evil dressed up for evil

Dressed for evil dressed up for evil

Donald Trump (Exercise Of Stupidity)

 Twice impeached Trump was the worst US president in history for many reasons. 

#1) Trump committed an act of treason against the US by inciting a violent insurrection on January 6, 2021. 

#2) Trump’s incompetence regarding his management of the US response to the Covid-19 pandemic between January 2020 and July of 2020. Thousands of US citizens died as a result Trump’s failure. If Trump had a proper immediate response to the pandemic the way that the South Korean government did, then thousands of US citizens who died would still be alive today. 

#3) In April of 2019 Trump vetoed the resolution to end US military support of Saudi Arabia's GENOCIDE of thousands of innocent civilians in Yemen! Trump was using the US military to support GENOCIDE in Yemen! 

#4) Trump violated the Emoluments Clause of the US Constitution for his entire 4 years in office, then in 2019 Trump verbally mocked the US Constitution. The foundation of the USA is the US Constitution, that is why the presidential inaugural oath includes to swear to protect and defend the US Constitution. In January 2017 Trump publicly swore an oath on a bible at his inauguration ceremony to protect and defend the US Constitution. In 2019 Trump mocked the US Constitution by publicly saying the words "phony emoluments clause". 

#5) Trump misogynistically and adulterously said of women: "Grab them by the pussy."! Trump committed adultery with Stormy Daniels and then tried to cover it up. Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, was in prison for crimes related to Trump's cover-up of his adulterous scandal with Stormy Daniels. Most Republicans claim to be the moral party and/or the majority Christian party, but hypocritically enthusiastically want to give an adulterous Donald Trump, another 4 years in office. If a US president who was a member of the Democratic Party did the terrible things Trump has, of course, the Republican Party leaders would be screaming for his removal from office. 

#6) Trump committed the crime of obstruction of justice. 

#7) Trump committed crimes of trying to tamper with elections, especially in Georgia. 

#8) Trump's attempted abuse of power regarding Ukraine. 

#9) Trump committed tax fraud in New York State, which is partly why Trump hides his tax returns. 

#10) Trump practiced corrupt nepotism as he appointed unqualified members of his family into positions of power in the executive branch of government.

 #11) Trump illegally destroyed documents and illegally took documents with him after he left the office of president. 

There are many other horrible things about Trump. Here are some of them: Donald Trump is a dumb corrupt businessman which is why he hides his tax returns. Donald Trump is not a self-made man, he benefited from nepotism. His daddy Fred Trump gave him millions of dollars to start businesses many of which have failed! Donald Trump's failed businesses are many but include: Trump Airlines, a Trump Casino, and Trump University. With his failed Trump University, he defrauded hundreds of students. In Trump's many construction projects he failed to pay some of his contractors. Trump committed fraud with his non-profit in New York State which is why Trump recently transferred his residence to Florida. Donald Trump is too stupid to write his own book which why he hired a ghostwriter to write "The Art of the Deal". When Trump was in high school, he hired another boy to take his SAT college entrance exam. Trump claims that he is smart, but he refuses to show us his college transcripts. Donald Trump's daddy bribed a physician to write that Donald Trump had bone spurs and therefore could dodge the Vietnam War draft. Donald Trump and his dad also practiced racism in who they would rent properties to in the 1960s and 1970s. That is just scratching the surface of the long list of horrible things about Donald Trump.

The first time Trump went before the United Nations, within 10 seconds of his speech, the world's leaders literally laughed at him. Remember world leaders openly laughed at Trump at the G7 conference he addressed

If he's the mega billionaire he claims to be, he could fix this with his pocket change.  Plus he said as President, you wouldn't believe the number of really rich people I met.  So there should be no need to grift, if he's telling the truth about all of that.  But of course, here he is, grifting.

Wow  Millions down to $40. and some change.  That is amazing.  It is about time that people recognize that they are being used to foot the bill for his legal fees. As a member of the party of  personal responsibility, he should not rely on others and start selling his properties to foot HIS personal legal bills.An alleged billionaire, yet he behaves like a panhandler.

But I remember he said at the beginning of his reign of terror that he was so rich, he didn't need contributions. He's been grifting all his life

He is saying there is a deadline because either because he is making a campaign style video so he thinks that is just what you say in campaign videos despite him not running for something. Or the deadline he speaks of is when he actually has to start reporting fundraising numbers and doesn't want to report anything

I think he was saying he had rich friends beforehand and no one knows who they are. Basically, he did it for the fame, because he doesn't just want money, he ALSO wants to be famous, because he's puddle-deep and needs attention thanks to mommy and daddy never hugging him.

"I think he was saying he had rich friends beforehand and no one knows who they are"

If that was the case then "doing it again" would not get him those anonymous rich friends. The context of the question is "would you do it again." The only way where his rich friends were present in advance would be if it were his rich friends who, like, "forced him" to run. If he already had rich friends then they would be otherwise irrelevant to doing it again or even in the first place.

Trump said he wanted to be president purely for the fame. He said I have a lot of rich friends and nobody who they are (meaning they aren't famous). He said he wanted to have experiences that people would envy.

 When you try to interpret Trump's quote, you have to also try to understand his frame of mind and who he surrounds himself with.  His world is filled with egomaniacs drinking their own self-important kool-aid. Trump doesn't articulate himself very well, so it can be hard to miss the point.

When he says "I have so many rich friends and nobody knows who they are," what he is saying is: I have so many rich friends and nobody knows who THEY are.

As in, lots of people can be rich, after all, look how many rich people I know.  But none of them are famous like I am.  Anybody can be be rich, but I'm special because everybody knows who I am.

Trump cares about money, but he doesn't care about money like a regular human being.  At the root of it, he cares about money because he's a simpleton sociopath who measures his ego by how rich he is.  In his world, money is a symbol of his power and a measure of his importance.  

If Trump was a semi-normal person that at has the ability to view money as a tool to provide comfort, security, and the enjoyment of life (rather than the dick measuring contest he's dedicated his entire miserable and insecure life toward), he would be a happy well adjusted person that none of us had ever heard of.

He grifted the taxpayers for various charges at his resorts for ss protection for inflated charges for foreign visitors ,for inaugural expenses... the list goes on. He benefited by fame, money ,immunity.  He might have a horse or a golf course to sell you if you believe he didn't profit

I have been saying this SINCE THE BEGINNING OF HIS RUN FOR PRESIDENT. 

HE BOUGHT THE 2017 ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTE TO AVOID PROSECUTION BY NYC, HE NEEDED EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE. 

RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT WAS THE BIGGEST GRIFT EVER

I knew from the beginning that it all a big ego boost for Trump. It was all about the name brand, and especially, the money.

He was a businessman, not a politician. His supporters voted for the businessman as a way of thumbing the noses of establishment career politicians and this is what happened. He won and everyone else either against or for him got suckered.

His statement also sounds kind of like he's comparing his popularity to theirs. Like, "everyone knows who I am, but no one knows who my rich friends are because they didn't gain the same popularity as me." It sounds like he is using the fame to lord over his rich friends like, "See, everyone knows me but no one knows you because you didn't do what I did!"

The interesting thing I found in the whole Trump Presidency was that people I knew, and were friends with found Trump an appealing candidate.   Somehow his persona was attractive, his vision, his outlook, and words spoke for them.

It showed me a window to their souls that I can't unsee.  I see their true values now.  I lost a lot of respect for people and friends I once respected..

In spite of his oath of office, I feel he was also avoiding prosecution as there was talk of him being investigated before he became president. In the case of New York, they just put things on hold. Spending three years on that investigation, to the point there were people resigning because they thought they were wasting their time on something that wasn't going to go anywhere. Personally, it appears that there was no stone left unturned to make sure every bit of evidence was obtained before making a move on it. He has a paycheck the rest of his life and security that we not only pay for, but I'm sure he's still charging them room and board. He consistently claimed there was no such thing as global warming, but yet he was still requesting a sea walk be built to protect his golf course property in Scotland. There was one leader that has been his BFF that no one picked up on, or did or said anything to find out the truth behind this friendship. After his comment regarding African shithole countries, he had a "working lunch" with a lot of African leaders. His new BFF was the leader of Nigeria. He was the main spokesperson. The other leaders didn't say one word about the story behind this man and Frump envies his political power. It also helps that they are an oil rich nation. Trump sold him military equipment, as well as supporting him claiming he was fighting terrorism, there was a famine, etc. This leader was actually committing genocide against the Igbo people of the south as the oil is on their ancestral land. They are clergy, lawyers, nurses, unarmed men, women and children. Entire villages have disappeared. They want a sovereign nation. There was no Nigeria before the English took over. There is still British Petroleum everywhere, although they were no longer a colony since the 1960's. Taking phones etc., did not make enough of a media blackout. Twitter removed a post stating this man violated their guidelines, so he banned Twitter as well as other social media. No one is looking in their direction at all. Just another of Frump's friends.

So, he played the ultimate "pied piper." And he's suppose to have all these "rich friends," where are they now? Any of them having his back? You know, a lot of these folks, old money especially, can spot a player a mile away and will play along and let they crash and burn.

And the Russian deal was noted and on "the books" for awhile. North Korea was talked about but didn't know if it went beyond that. Saudi Arabia,  thought he had something there already.

I take that as there are two kinds of rich people, those that people who who they are and those that people don't know who they are. In Trump's mind he becoming president solidified himself in the former category. Yeah, I'm sure he used his presidency to get to know other rich people but I'm pretty sure that his statement meant that he was a known rich person.

Trump always says the quiet things out loud. Like in the debate with Hillary when she accused him of not paying his taxes, he blurted out, "That's because I'm smart."

He's not of course. What he means is he pays smart tax agents to help him rort the system and avoid paying tax.

Each day I see more information about Donald Trump's behaviour and wonder, "Are Americans THAT stupid that they will believe anything this man says?" Perhaps yes. Americans are so disillusioned with Politicians over the decades that they desperately wanted SOMEONE to say and do as they really felt. They pinned their future on Donald Trump. What a shame it appears to have been, as you say, one long con job. The difference between Donald Trump and successive US Politicians, he was blatantly obvious about his goals. I wonder who is going to play Donald Trump in the 2028 miniseries.

If Merrick Garland does his job correctly maybe it will be trump tower Leavenworth federal penitentiary. He could put the trump name right over top of his cell. Then he could lie about the 8 by 6 room and say it's a 14 by 20' room. Of course the kitchen is not going to be that pleasant. And the dining hall may be a little restricted. But trump guarantees instead of a gold plated toilet you will have a stainless steel toilet with a drinking fountain on top of it.

Even I saw right through Trump and something to think about when he wanted to buy Greenland which is really part of Denmark and the leader of Denmark had told Donnie , " No " and " it not going to happen here " ! I knew Donald Trump was up to something and up to but no good as usual  !!!

So, Trump valued making wealthy friends that no one knew about while in office. No wonder he kept White House visitor logs hidden. The National Archives recently released the logs to the Jan 6 cmte. Trump also pushed for tax cuts for the rich while ensuring sunset laws for middle class tax cuts. The GOP was a willing accomplice on that one. So, priority one for Trump's presidency,  cultivate secret wealthy friends. Priority two, reward existing wealthy friends with greater tax breaks. I'm guessing public service was a distant third if it was a priority at all.

What Trump was saying was that the rich guys he hangs around with aren't famous like he is. He doesn't understand why they don't care about being famous, like he does. Trump loves his role of famous rich guy, and isn't ashamed of the fact that he rode this need to be more famous than other rich guys all the way to the White House.

Trump doesn't have a lot of years left and it's not like he cares about his kids so much that it's for them so it doesn't make much sense to me. I think before this is done he's going to really regret it.

He had plenty of money and could have enjoyed a fairly stress-free life of luxury in his remaining years. His ego and his greed got the better of him

While this take is quite possible, and let me be clear, I loathe the ex president, I really think this could be a misread on the intended message.  Knowing the angry Cheetoh's vanity, he quite likely A: could simply mean "I have a ton of rich friends, no one knows them.  As president, EVERYONE knows me so I win!  (IE: fame = success to this ass hat)"  and B: he possibly never says he's still talking to Kim Jong Un because he is not and revealing that fact, in his pea brain, somehow diminishes him personally so he's better off to infer that he may be and letting the reporters run with it and assume that's a hard yes (IE: "there's this girl, she's Canadian, you wouldn't know her").

The rich friends explanation is unfortunate for two groups.  To MAGA supporters it is a stark statement that they never were and never will be welcome at Mar a Lago.  To the rest of US citizens it is a standard narcissistic expression " even the company I keep points to me as superior " that reeks with ' I only care about myself and NOT you all. "

I take Trump's unwillingness to say whether he still talks to Kim Jong Un the other way. It's very possible that Kim Jong Un is no longer interested in having any kind of relationship with Trump now that he's out of the White House. Given that Trump always says that Kim Jong Un adored him, it would be a huge narcissistic wound if Kim Jong Un snubs him now. I don't think that Trump would hesitate in the least to say that they still communicate. However, it's also possible that he is still communicating with Kim Jong Un and the classified documents are involved. If so, that would be a reason to hesitate to give an answer.

Trump is saying he has rich friends that no one knows about and him running for presidency made him famous/known to almost literally everyone in the world. It fills his ego with pride that he can go back to his friends and brag about how he's the most famous person/popular person in the world. This is simply a bragging point for him against those ppl bc when you reach a certain level of wealth gaining more is no longer exciting. Running and becoming president brought that excitement back.

However, the moment he said he was going to Key-mar-go for his vacations and then held political meeting with foreign dignitaries and the secret service had to secure the area (which they couldn’t) and the US tax payer had to front the bill when, there is a special spot already set aside for just such things (camp David) had me wondering why?Then to find out they had a record attendance at that “club”, made a tone of money and most of it went to Trump as a stock holder.

That told me all I needed to know with what he was doing with his presidency

Natural High

Last night I had a vivid dream I found a place where nothing’s what it seems.

I’m bound to walk this earth alone I am a hunter and the heir to the throne.

The chase of blood and sweet revenge it keeps on hammering in my head.

The urge to kill is getting stronger I’m south of heaven, north of hell.

My final place to dwell.

Surrender your soul surrender your pride.

Please enter my dream find your natural high.

You’ve got nothing to fear because your rebirth is near.

The battle rages deep inside nowhere to run for my eternal bride.

And when the darkness comes around.

I come alive because for your sweet blood I am bound.

I taste your blood so bitter sweet.

Come ease my pain get on your knees you know true love is meant to be.

Forever missed out what it seems this is your final scream.

So you are born again. to a higher plane.

In my dark neverland you’re part of the game.

Forever we are, forever we’ll be we’re forever free

No Sacrifice, No Victory

Light turned to dark as we lost what we fought for

Now we have come to settle the score

Sacrifice - Victory

Light, brings us light on the pale darkened heavens

In the end only truth will survive, no matter what you sacrifice

So you can't harvest your glory all based on deceit, cause no one will swallow your lies

On our pathway to glory, we stand together honored by blood

Templars, fight or fall raise your fists, heed the call Bring the Hammer Down, behold the light

The future holds nothing but pain and sorrow no painted skies, we dwell in black and white

Just live your life, like there is no tomorrow present today, forgotten before dawn

Still counting the stars, in search for a way the meaning of life

Now raise your hands before your time runs out

Bring the Hammer Down slam it down to the ground one flag, one world united

Templars, fight or fall raise your fists, heed the call Bring the Hammer Down, behold the light

High On Fire Tribute EP

 Surrounded By Thieves

Icy caverns holds man traveler

Ancient relic reveals secrets

Transform human beyond mortal

Learnt foreboding sacred tempest

Up to their bridles in blood the wars of the Earth have begun

The sunless age comes so it seems the cities surrounded by thieves

Rich man he lusts for gold still there are slaves to be sold

Woe to the one who had saved the cities surrounded by graves

Blessed Black Wings

Long to live the path that saves my soul away adapted forced to live so low

Gone's the will to want to see the light somber visions cause the path I've strived

Sooth the sayer revels in my death some would think I'm just a lunatic

The blood I bleed must be black indeed speak the devil in my time of need

Blessed black wings

Subterranean the house of worms enter in and let my voice be heard

They call to me bearing evil grins accounting all here is the den of sins

Blessed black wings

Pleasure's treasures leave me hypnotized blacking out, follow the trail of lies

Demons seen with a knife in back eat your mouth out with your cocaine slack

Shadow powder makes me come alive walking zombie mumbles depressed sighs

The blood I bleed must be black indeed speak the devil in my time of need

Blessed black wings

Waste Of Tiamat

Twisting, falling, like eagles they drop from the sky

Without warning, the nuclear beast shows its eyes

Chaos ramped, the cult of the severed head rise

Among the ashes, could not foresee strength or size

Haunting screaming, gone in a flash of our eyes

Priestly being meant nothing more than their guise

Fallen angels, light up the sky with demise

Blackened hydra makes way as dark men conspire

Demons swarming, attacking the few who survive

Armageddon, the heavens and hell will collide

Cometh conqueror, black death is allotted its time

Primely power, to walk through the blood is divine

 Return To NOD

Serve the shadows mountain peaks under the glass mirrored skies

Sing the psalms of the wailing winds, the entrance seer will provide

Stars reveal the tattered map, a land cursed of time

So speak the words of our challenger seeking the ultimate prize

Speaking the words of the sorcerer's tongue

No one can stop what's already begun

Follow the footsteps and unlock the door

The giant you face has awakened

Fear is invoked by your trembling hands, the foe is deadly and wise

A sight that's filled the eyes of mighty men, the very cost of their lives

Take the aim of the shimmering blade, the vulnerable spot is precise

Swift is the hand of the waking beast, crown of two worlds is the prize

Blood will spill on the warrior's feet, casting the enemy aside

Exalting the hero for evermore, steps to the throne of eyes

Serve the shadows mountain peaks under the glass mirrored skies

Sing the psalms of the wailing winds, the entrance seer will provide

 Fireface

To be rising chief I have traveled a hundred fold days

Wandered dark wilderness, ravens have gathered my ways

Holy man, vision quest, dancing dawn reflects his gaze

Return to the clan with the scalps of the men who betrayed

Medicine Man has concocted a potion to see

Animal Spirits have filled me and leads what's to be

Runningwolf, eagle eyes, blood running cold in my veins

Great Spirit laughs as my enemies run from my reign

To be rising chief I have traveled a hundred fold days

Wandered dark wilderness ravens have gathered my ways

Look in my eyes your demise is what is fueling my rage

For I am the one whom by others is called Fire Face

Master Of Fists

Anger flows, warriors call focused eyes see through them all

Teachers death was a con Jeet Kune Do avenging one

Streamline form, flying kicks warriors fall from powered hits

Mesmerized speed and fury nunchucks crush skulls with their flurry

Snap of the dragon crack like a whip

You cannot defy The Master of Fists

Bender of will defender of bliss

Enters the dragon The Master of Fists

Annotations Of An Autopsy Tribute EP

 Buried In A Bad Rep

And when the sun goes down and the moon comes up

We fucking run this town, armed to the teeth, young and dumb

We don't give a fuck about anyone we are the criminals you read about

We are the scum society could do without we stand by everything we've ever said

And we'll be buried in a bad rep when we're fucking dead

We're everything you said and more we've got the wolves howling at our door

We know your game of get rich quick we ain't falling for it so suck my fucking dick

Buried in a bad rep try ta step to me are you fucking mad?

We got a rep and we know it's bad but we know none of it is true 

Its all down to dirty snakes like you and when the sun goes down and the moon comes up

We fucking run this town armed to the teeth, young and dumb

We don't give a fuck about anyone we are the criminals you read about

We are the scum society could do without we stand by everything we've ever said

Your band is fucking shit we run, this town, we say, what's going down we cant be stopped

Human Dust

Crushing, bludgeoning you into dust

Mushing, pounding you into dust

Smashing, ripping, pounding your bones into dust

I'm here to bludgeon you now here I come, here I come to bludgeon you

Ground down, viciously, pound down, horribly

Ground down, viciously pound down into dust

Crushed down into human dust

I have come to fuck you, smash in your face

The time has come for me to end, leave you in a ditch

The time has come for me to pound you with my dick until you're unconscious

Bitch, I've shown you who's the bigger man

Reznov

It's hard to sleep when there's a knife in your back

It's even harder to hold back when you want to attack so I won't

No one respects you, we all hope you choke you're not a man, you're a fucking joke

You're a fucking joke I gave you everything, I made you and then erased you

Lying like a worm to your family, fucking pathetic goodbye my friend this is my final word

If you ever cross my path I'll stomp you to the curb you're fucking dead to me

You're fucking dead to us and now I'm fucking pissed.

No one will remember your name no legend or fame

They've forgotten you waste of life so just take a look in my eyes and you will realise I ain't joking

You waste of life we fucking hate you

I don't care about your life and if you died today I wouldn't give a fuck you're a fucking joke

And if you came to me begging on your knees I wouldn't feel anything I'd spit in your face

I know you're weak, we all know it's true all your bullshit has finally caught up with you

You stole from friends, now you've lost them too Karma's a bitch and so are you 

Dark Days

They say that we should always follow our heart but what if mine was already dead from the start

Trying to find something that can not be found, while the weight of the world drags me down

On this cold dark road you'll forget who you are and realise who you're meant to be

Over time the only thing that's stayed by my side are these grey clouds hanging over me

I am losing my mind I can't go on this world is fucking killing me

It will all be fine if these grey clouds stay over me

They say that we should always follow our heart

Well I guess that I was fucked from the start

Broken hands, dead on the floor lying in the dirt, begging for more

On this cold dark road you'll forget who you are and realise who you're meant to be

Over time the only thing that's stayed by my side are these grey clouds hanging over me

I am losing my mind I can't go on this world is fucking killing me

It will all be fine if these grey clouds stay over me

Everything is falling down around me and I don't know if it can be saved

So say your goodbyes to the ones you once loved before you lay their bodies in their grave

Stage Breaker

Pure fucking hate there is no love, there is no respect.

All we have is hate and misery in this world full of agony

I'm not a nice man I'm fucking miserable I don't care about anything, anyone

I don't believe in love all I feel is hate and no god determines my face

I am the face of hate and you will know my name

I am the face of hate and you will know my fucking name

My dying words to the world would be Fuck you

All you pricks tryna run your mouth Fuck you

My dying words to the world would be Fuck you

And if you think I respect you Fuck you too

No respect no respect for anyone there is no love, there is no respect.

All we have is hate and misery in this world full of agony

This world is agony I fucking hate every single one of you Fuck

Sludge City

She bled from every fucking hole! that bitch bled for days, she bled from every fucking hole

Blood dripped from her exits first step; rip out entrails, through her bloody cunt

Nothing but a piece of meat, a disease ridden slut

Sick and tired of fucking whores; I'm trying sodomy with saws

Let's see how fucking hot she is with her asshole ripped to bits

Straight up her ass goes my blade, thrusting deeply

Nothing but a whore nothing but a whore

Disembowel her fucking body make her feel it

When I'm done with you, you won't have a cunt left

I guarantee when I'm done with you, you won't have a cunt left

Blood seeping for her gash now, just as it should

I don't know how many times I told her

When I'm done with you, you won't have a cunt left

The Bangles Tribute EP

 Going Down To Liverpool

Hey there where you going with that load of nothing in your hand

I said hey there all through this green and pleasant land.

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

All the days of my life all the days of my life.

Hey there where you going with that UB40 in your hand

I said hey there all through this green and pleasant land.

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

All the days of my life all the days of my life

Hey now where you going with that UB40 in your hand

I said hey now all through this green and pleasant land.

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

I'm going down to Liverpool to do nothing

All the days of my life all the days of my life

Manic Monday

Six o'clock already I was just in the middle of a dream

I was kissing Valentino by a crystal blue Italian stream

But I can't be late because then I guess I just won't get paid

These are the days when you wish your bed was already made

It's just another manic Monday

I wish it was Sunday because that's my funday

My I don't have to run day it's just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train got to be to work by nine

And if I had an airplane I still couldn't make it on time

Because it takes me so long just to figure out what I'm gonna wear

Blame it on the train but the boss is already there

It's just another manic Monday

I wish it was Sunday because that's my funday

My I don't have to run day it's just another manic Monday

All of my nights why did my lover have to pick last night to get down?

Last night, last night doesn't it matter that I have to feed the both of us

Employment's down He tells me in his bedroom voice

Come on honey, let's go make some noise time it goes so fast

When you're having fun

It's just another manic Monday

I wish it was Sunday because that's my funday

My I don't have to run day it's just another manic Monday

Walk Like An Egyptian

All the old paintings on the tombs they do the sand dance don't you know?

If they move too quick they're falling down like a domino.

All the bazaar men by the Nile they got the money on a bet.

Gold crocodiles they snap their teeth on your cigarette.

Foreign types with their hookah pipes say walk like an Egyptian.

The blond waitresses take their trays they spin around and they cross the floor;

They've got the moves you drop your drink then they bring you more.

All the school kids so sick of books they like the punk and the metal band.

When the buzzer rings they're walking like an Egyptian.

All the kids in the marketplace say walk like an Egyptian.

Slide your feet up the street bend your back shift your arm then you pull it back.

Life's hard you know so strike a pose on a Cadillac.

If you want to find all the cops they're hanging out in the donut shop.

They sing and dance they spin the clubs cruise down the block.

All the Japanese with their yen the party boys call the Kremlin

And the Chinese know they walk the line like Egyptian.

All the cops in the donut shop say walk like an Egyptian

Eternal Flame

Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling

Do you feel my heart beating

Do you understand do you feel the same

Am I only dreaming is this burning an eternal flame

I believe it's meant to be, darling

I watch you when you are sleeping

You belong with me do you feel the same

Am I only dreaming or is this burning an eternal flame

Say my name sun shines through the rain

A whole life so lonely and then come and ease the pain

I don't want to lose this feeling

Say my name sun shines through the rain

A whole life so lonely and then come and ease the pain

I don't want to lose this feeling

Circles In The Sky

In a window small and high a boy watches the sky turning to monochrome

And when they asked him do you know

Where in the whole world you will go he said I wanna go home

We're all here to wonder why it's a free fall until we fly

Then you and I will make circles in the sky

Too many birds up on a wire and they sway like a gospel choir

Making music so heavenly and the bees make a honeycomb

The road home is our home home will always be here with me

We're all here to wonder why it's a free fall until we fly

Then you and I will make circles in the sky

And if this is true then I belong to you and you belong to me:

In a window tall and wide a girl sits side by side with a boy no one sees but me

And she whispers in his ear I'll wait for you right here this is where we're supposed to be

Because we're all here to question why and it's a free fall until we fly

Then you and I will make circles in the sky

Never be alone the road home is our home

And that is why we'll make circles in the sky

Tear Off Your Own Head

Who dries your eyes when you cry real tears?

Who knows or cares what imitation is only you do

You can paint his nails make him wear high heels

Why waste time altering the hemline or do you?

Tear of your own head tear of your own head

It's a doll revolution

You can bat your lashes you can cut your strings

Pull out his hair with your moveable fingers it looks so real

But one won't do, so collect the set dress him in pink ribbons

Put him in a kitchenette how does this feel?

Tear of your own head tear of your own head

It's a doll revolution

What's that sound It'll turn you around it's a doll revolution

They're taking over and they're tearing it down it's a doll revolution

You can pull and pinch him until he cries and squeals

You can twist his body until it faces backwards plastic features

Could make somebody a pretty little wife

But don't let anybody tell you how to live your life broken pieces

Tear off your own head tear off your own head

It's a doll revolution

Xandria Tribute EP

 India

On sailing on to our fate to India

Above the seas with the wind we are flying high

Our wings are sails and our trail means no second try

Golden and silver the future will be when we are at the aim

Forward we sail into the unknown we have no fear, we´re sacred

We´re going to where no one has gone before

Keep on 'til we have reached the sunset there will be no withdrawal

We are heading for the treasures of India

Stars show the way through the night, we don´t look behind

Water supplies getting low but we are strong in mind

Power and glory will come to us all when we´re at the aim

Forward we sail into the unknown we have no fear, we´re sacred

We´re going to where no one has gone before

Keep on 'til we have reached the sunset there will be no withdrawal

We are heading for the treasures of India

Once there was a vision to find a new land behind the horizon

When we chased the sun a whole new world was born

My dearest wishes they will be fulfilled when we have reached our destination

Forward we sail into the unknown we have no fear, we´re sacred

We´re going to where no one has gone before

Keep on 'til we have reached the sunset there will be no withdrawal

We are heading for the treasures of India

On sailing on to our fate sailing on

Return To India

Sun rays touching my skin like a stream of gold

Beauty, fame and wealth smell nice on top of the world

Made my day, this day made me the blessed one

My achievements will shine bright when all the smoke is gone

All those years and with all my heart reaching out for what would broaden my horizon

Perpetual striving made my life complete and now that I reached new dimensions I wonder why

There's still something in my head I fail to explain

Falling deep into this void, only silence to remain

Sheer enlightenment of the soul that's what I hoped to find

Reduced to instincts I've to see there will be no peace of mind

Left behind the ghosts I knew so well, stepped into the light, into a new beginning

But can it be I miss their company, need their guidance and advice to define the inner me

Where's my dream of India dead-end street to India

Been so close and yet so far no return to India

Expectations once so high now seem down and low

They once sent shivers down my spine, now make me tremble in my bones

Where's the dream that made me be, made me carry on

Gave my longing for an end just to find that nothing's won

Means to an end we're dedicated to might set an end to all those means we have to offer

I can't escape from this lifelong dream, I'm a captive of its shadows, awaken, end to all sleep

Where's my dream of India dead-end street to India

Been so close and yet so far give me back my India

Once we have reached our destiny we understand that it is different from the dearest wishes of the beginning.

It is much deeper, broader, sometimes greater either we understand or we sail on, and on, and on

Black Flame

Incinerate my skin and touch me far far beyond

Burn me out, my sin and take me deeper underground

I know it's way too late when this dance has begun

So put on the heat and let the fire run

Take me away, my black flame

Immaculate you are in your tender violence

And when you touch my heart I'll always lower my defense

Don't let me wait too long because I don't like to be save

We know we can't go wrong on our way through time and space

Take me away, my black flame

Sleeping Dogs Lie

Night falls down and soon we're all alone

What do you have in mind, guidance of the blind, I feel lost

Lost inside this maze of shame and sin

A taste of sweetest wine, addictive yet so fine, I want more

The conscience says no, all senses yell go,

There's too much at stake this time

The more I deny, the more I commit to this night

Don't tell me what you feel, don't tell me what you see

Close your eyes and stay behind the scene

Any alibi will be one step over the line

Do you feel my pain, do you share my fears so right even if I die tonight

Will I pay the price at the edge of time let sleeping dogs lie

Time stands still, the room seems frozen now

Two creatures moving in a game of lose or win, right or wrong

Step aside, loosen this stranglehold

May heaven's fires burn the point of no return, sensual thorn

My head's spinning round, waiting to fall, fall for a secret desire

Too far to starve yet too close to breathe in this lie

Gonna make your sleeping dogs fly

Lullaby

You're still awake and I can feel the tears drying on your skin and I wish that they were mine

I touch your hand, I kiss your lips to make you feel I'm there just to hold you through this night

The weight of the world, this burden on your shoulders

Demons of the past, will they ever disappear?

Memories of withered dreams, illusions torn and gone remaining scars no one can see

This end of innocence and thought it made you strong your inner wounds, a part of me

I only wish to be the one you can rely on do you feel I care, care for all I have with you

When curtains fall and the lights begin to fade there's only us and all masks are obsolete

You're still awake and I can sense a smile upon your face

So glad to have you by my side

Draw back my hand and let the night's relief enter its place

Close your eyes, sleep well tonight my love, feel safe tonight

Death To The Holy

See hypocrisy, in blood-red shade all wisdom raped

They feed their curse with poisoned words and lead us to their inferno

Need the angels' creed, their kingdoms rise built upon lies

The deaths we mourn, their lives forlorn feel welcome to their freak show

See the sky turning black everywhere our revolution is here

Follow the secret call and see through the crystal ball

The time for the oath has come, for ending the story

Walk through the open gate, behind you the broken land

Let's all make a final stand death to the holy

See humanity in golden chains, but full of stains

We walk their path, deceiver's wrath selling all our freedom

Break the demons' wave to let us be in unity

In search of mind, all that's behind the universe and its reason

See the sky turning black everywhere our revolution is here

Seeking the truth wisdom shall rule

Hate ruling, dark ages, swords falling, death rages

Greed killing, truth murdered, no freedom, false order

For thousands of years this plague has been ruining us.

Destroying dreams, lives, the truth we should have learned how to save us all.

Finding the truth wisdom shall rule finally our spell is cast, now make our freedom last

All of the rivers crossed we won't be lonely I'll follow you crystal ball!

I will walk through the open gate death to the holy

Once once out time will come we will all be one

Carry our flame to heaven burn forever!

 Edge Of The Blade

Time to break through the anger hunt down the remnants of the everlasting myth

Incinerating hands that touched your graceful face in their mysterious ways

The scorching scars have left an everlasting visual trace now they're blinding and rewinding

Time to break through the anger hunt down the remnants of the everlasting myth

Cherish your hunger for resentment and dismay and then come out to play

Cascading colors meticulously all washed away time for choosing not for losing

Defying the fire reviving within

Time to break through your walls are soaring high

They are disarranging the surface on which we build our own lie

Time to break through the anger hunt down the remnants of the everlasting myth

Your wish for virtual perfection seems inane but try and you will evolve

Your paragon possessed your inner self to no avail no more waiting, no debating

Defying the fire reviving within

Time to break through your walls are soaring high

They are disarranging the surface on which we build our own lie

Don't throw your life away remain the same

Watch your back, now feel the heat you've fooled the world one more time

And now that you've seen with open eyes all of us are incomplete

It's time to break through your walls are soaring high

You can even try to break through the perfect state of mind

And now you break through you'll reach beyond the sky

You should never ever build on the surface made of lies

Time to break through the anger hunt down the remnants of the everlasting myth

Solitary Ground

Living at different places evading into various spaces

My compass has broken; I'm losing the way

An ongoing madness has led me astray

My past breathes down my neck and it seems now that all I can do is

Go back to beginnings when all lay ahead a fading illusion now plagues me instead

In me there's still a place that fulfils me

A sanctity here that I call home and run to when winter descends

If I try can I find solid ground

I follow elusive paths it seems they've been written in stone

And the door to a new life is closing so fast burning the bridges will not bring me back

In me there's still a place that fulfils me

A sanctity here that I call home and run to when winter descends,

If I try can I find solid ground

I know that in me there still a place that fulfils me

A sanctity here, that I call home and run to when winter descends

If I try can I find solid ground or am I just wasting time?

Menace Of Vanity

Comprehensive expressions of your social weakness vented on your countless made up enemies

I cannot know how you feel when you don't say anything

We don't care what you say we'll never join the games you play

We won't bleed for all your sins we never followed your way now so

We don't care anymore how you'll perform your last encore

Your misplaced sense of superiority the result of your unbearable form of vanity

I cannot know what you see when you don't show anything;

We don't care what you say we'll never join the games you play

We won't bleed for all your sins we never followed your way now so

We don't care anymore how you'll perform your last encore

I cannot know how you feel when you don't say anything

I cannot know what you see when you don't show anything

We don't care what you say we'll never join the games you play

We won't bleed for all your sins we never followed your way now so

We don't care anymore how you'll perform your last encore

 Forevermore

I see an angel in the sky she’s reaching out to me the light around her is divine

I see the ocean in her eyes our thoughts will intertwine in the fullness of our time

Then she takes me by the hand and whispers in my ear

Walk up the stairway to heaven; we’ll wander far beyond the stars

You only have to confide in me and I’ll be yours forevermore

Not knowing if I’m wide awake or if I’m vast asleep to realize what’s going on

Her presence is taking over me, caught in a reverie we know our worlds lie far apart

Then she takes me by the hand and all becomes so clear

We’ll walk up the stairway to heaven; we’ll wander far beyond the stars

You only have to confide in me and I’ll be yours forevermore

We’ll walk in the heaven so high above, where we will be in celestial spheres

If you’d only depend on me, I shall be yours forevermore

I SHALL FIGHT WITH ALL MY STRENGTH TO HUNT YOU DOWN

I SHALL CHEAT WITHOUT REMORSE IF THAT’S THE ONLY WAY

He whispers in my ear

We’ll walk up the stairway to heaven; we’ll wander far beyond the stars

You only have to confide in me and I’ll be yours forevermore

We’ll walk in the heaven so high above, where we will be in celestial spheres

If you’d only depend on me, I’ll be yours forevermore you and me forevermore

Veniality 

Searching for what she can't find for her own peace of mind

She can't forgive, nor forget the past

These ineffable feelings and hurt that last evermore

Bewail the truth, the face of fate, and conquer all the past

Don't enthrall yourself, let the penance begin

You've got to open your heart to see the confinement

Bewail the truth, the face of fate, and conquer all the past

It seems so futile, forgiveness, your freedom the present state of veniality

Bewail the truth, the face of fate, and conquer all the past

Search for the light, and then you'll find your own peace of mind

Storm The Sorrow

Along the way I find myself to be confined within me

No place for any other's mind to interfere,

To grasp the meaning of it all to overcome my limits

And dance away from any void and empty tones,

Just tell me why just tell me how I can survive this time

Believe yourself and look away from all that's right within you

Leave all your worries at the door and drift away,

I’ve tried to peer into the core but could not storm the sorrow

My hollow heart has bled me dry, left me to stray

Another time without a trace condemn me now send me to hell for I'm already failing

Intertwine the lines that swim beneath the dark

Realize the pain we live in demonize the need we reel in

In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know centuries of dreams unending

Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed

No time should ever go to waste it’s not that complicated

You’re free to live your life at ease no more restraints

No heed for shadows on your way that try to steal your laughter

Your light will drive them all away be confident

Will I refrain can I repent will you be there erase the page for I’m alone and ailing

Intertwine the lines that swim beneath the dark

Realize the pain we live in demonize the need we reel in

In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know centuries of dreams unending

Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed

So, this is my life and it can't break me down go, I will decide who can come in and heal my disease

Burn it in flames kill it and maim why can't you see that you need to be freed?

Intertwine the lines beneath the dark every bit of pain we're feeling

Every other solemn life in the memories you will find somehow

There used to be a dream unending no more need to be alone

Intertwine the lines that swim beneath the dark

Realize the pain we live in demonize the need we reel in

In my memories I'll dig deep enough to know centuries of dreams unending

Another me that yielded tears when someone had betrayed

 China In Your Hand

It was a theme she had on a scheme he had told in a foreign land

To take life on earth to the second birth and the man was in command

It was a flight on the wings of a young girl's dreams that flew too far away

Don't push too far your dreams are china in your hand

Don't wish too hard because they may come true and you can't help them

You don't know what you might have set upon yourself china in your hand

Come from greed never born of the seed took a life from a barren hand

Eyes wide like a child in the form of man

A prophecy for a fantasy the curse of a vivid mind

Don't push too far your dreams are china in your hand

Don't wish too hard because they may come true and you can't help them

You don't know what you might have set upon yourself

Because they're only dreams and you shouldn't push too hard

Heart And Soul

Something in the moonlight catches my eye the shadow of a lover goes dancing by

Looking for a little bit of love to grow, so give me love, give me heart and soul

You never let me cross to the other side now I'm tied to the hope that you will somehow

Hard on the heels of something more but I lost your love, heart and soul

The tear in my heart as you walk on by more than an ocean I feel so low and your head is high

Everything you do convinces me more keeps us apart

Please, give me love, give me heart and soul

Looking to the day when I saw your face I feel a tearing in half of my heart

I wasn't in the running, I wasn't in the race

You move in a way that I've known before now I want your love, heart and soul

Tired eyes, tears that dried leaving you ain't easy now

On the bed, on the pillow, where the love has died loving you's the harder part

A turn of the key, through the door you go you never want me for myself

Don't look back, to hurt me more now I've needed you right from the very start

Everything you said was to the point can't you try to won't you even try to

Give a little bit of heart and soul

Give a little bit of love to grow

Give a little bit of heart and soul

And don't you make me beg for more

Must I beg you give a sign, I need to know a little bit of heart and soul

Walking on the water, walking on the air a walk on the water

That was the heart of the love we shared do you keep secret left untold is all that I need

Can't give love, heart or soul I used to have a lover with a Midas touch but miracles are not happening

I turned to gold but he turned to dust left me for another, I turned to stone

Now give me love, heart and soul

Tired eyes, tears that dried living in a fantasy

On the bed, on the pillow, where you told your lies there's never any room to breathe

A turn of the key, my blood runs cold hoping every waking hour

Don't look back to hurt me more you'll turn around and say that we can start

Everything you did just said it all can't you try to won't you even try to

Give a little bit of heart and soul

Give a little bit of love to grow

Give a little bit of heart and soul

And don't you make me beg for more

Must I beg you give a sign, I need to know a little bit of heart and soul

Somehow, I lost my way looking to see something in your eyes

But love will never compromise now this is the politics of life

Give a little bit of heart and soul

Give a little bit of love to grow

Give a little bit of heart and soul

And don't you make me beg for more

Must I beg you give a sign, I need to know a little bit of heart and soul

Secret Garden

There's more than a feeling than a differing mind to anatomy

On my own who's going to hold me a burning heart lifts me up to my life

I can't run from the truth and I won't try because it wouldn't matter who you were in this world

There's nothing on earth that we can't change but on the inside I could never be the same.

Came into the garden you got to come on in

Come into the secret garden we're changing the way we're made

And in our own eyes we're going to move the mountain.

So how do you see me now can you see me don't butter me up and tell me lies

I've seen the black and white coloured in your eyes but trapped in a cage is not the place

You can leave me or cover it up to ease your mind.

In this confusion I can always see the light into the garden.

Come into the garden come on in

Come into the secret garden we're changing the way we're made

And in our own eyes we're going to move the mountain.

You'll never know it feels not to be one thing or the other.

If there was a world without hypocrisy

You never know I might just be something you need.

It wouldn't matter who you were in this world

Knowing yourself is so much more

Take one step forward and you open up the door.

Come into the garden come on in

Come into the secret garden we're changing the way we're made

And in our own eyes we're going to move the mountain.

Bridge Of Spies

So long I've waited for you to come to me anticipated what I would say

And no one could know how it feels to be in your embrace again

So tender there were times I could not hold on

Each day that came a little more hope was gone

I'd look into my heart to see what I had done

And now I can't believe the day is finally come

I am walking over the bridge of spies today

Freedom is only one more step away

You only have to hold me take me to you

Now the things we wanted they're so far away it seems

And your love is a distant thing that I kept deep inside of me

Now if I could show you where I lived in my fantasy

On the continent of dreams you'd be with me

I don't know if I could go through it all again

For what's the point if you are never free to say

This is what I believe this is a part of me

No hero, no regrets but only meant to be

I am walking over the bridge of spies today

Freedom is only one step away

You only have to hold me

Sex Talk

I just feel like talking to someone I don't care who it is

I just wanna have a laugh you know how it is

All of the day in the same old room I'm going out of my mind

I can't throw this out of the window it's mine all mine

You better believe it hell you know I mean it I've been on my own too long

In desperation I learned many things but mostly it's to each their own

Sex talk intimate strangers only sex talking on the phone love without a face

I just need a little pat on the back tell me that I'm still alive

Like Spider Man I'm climbing the wall I want my prize

I don't remember when it crept up behind me don't know when I got so wet

All I know is I was looking for something but I forget

You see that I can't go on living like this I've been on my own too long

You know I looked around never found love far away it called one day

Sex talk intimate strangers only sex talking on the phone love without a face

I don't remember when it crept up behind me don't know when I got so wet

All I know is I was looking for something what was it what was it? I forget

Well, it's easy for you to be shocked at what I do you've probably got someone at home

I never had any one to love me anyone to need me I take what I can on the telephone

Sex talk, intimate strangers only sex talking on the phone

My kind of love without a face and we talk

Intimate strangers only sex, talking on the phone love without a face

Giving Up The Ghost

I have waited patiently for your heart to call to me

Across the great divide of the years that have slipped by

All the long and lonely nights I lay bathed in pale moonlight

Upon the bed we graced, now there's just a cold and empty space

Even all my friends say it's time to let you go it is time to break the hold

So I'm giving up the mention of your name

And I'm giving up the vision of your face

I'm forgiving us for letting go of love

Giving up the one I want the most

Giving up the ghost I'm giving up the ghost it's time to let you go

I'm giving up the ghost it's time to let you go I'm giving up the ghost

I don't search to find a cure, I don't do that anymore

I learned to lay the blame on the strangers we became

We were just one step away from a truth I couldn't face

But I hoped against it all that our history would break our fall

So I prayed for love to save us and I wished upon a star but you wished us far apart

It's time to let you go and you tried to show me how

Well I'm listening to you now your silence sends a message clear and loud

I have waited patiently for your heart to call to me

Across the great divide of the years that have slipped by

All the long and lonely nights I lay bathed in pale moonlight

Upon the bed we graced, now there's just a cold and empty space

Even all my friends say it's time to let you go it is time to break the hold

So I'm giving up  I'm giving you up I'm forgiving us for letting go of love

Giving up the one I want the most I'm giving up the ghost

Christ Agony Tribute EP

Heredity

I'm the family face flesh perishes, I live on

Projecting trait and trance through time to times anon

And leaping from place to place over oblivion

The years heired feature that can in cursive and voice and eye

Despise the human span of durance that is I

The eternal thing in man that no call to die

Eternal Desires

Garden of delight depth of my sight

Garden of delight blood of my stare

Eternal desires eternal desires

Garden of delight humiliation of my words

Elevation of thoughts on the pedestal of beauty

Eternal desires eternal desires

Forgotten millenium God's negation

Forgotten millenium God's negation

In my kingdom the winds

Only announce the forgotten mystery

Fiery Torches

Fire digests my heart cause we're not here anymore

Last night you went away last night. I'll only remember

The moments I've spent with you they'll stay with me forever

Death is proud and enormous

Death mocks at human weakness

Death is a Dark God

Fire digests my heart I'm full of pain

Last night everything has gone away

The world has finished among the stars I'll only remember

The moments I've spent with you they'll stay with me forever

Eternity is our time fiery torches are desired

Our naked bodies among them will become one

Eternity is place for us moonlight is the signpost

Our lips sealed and bodies we'll live with eternal love

New ways opened in front of us new gates are wide in front of us

Eternity is a place for us moonlight is the signpost

Unvirtue Diabolical

Fire is changing into darkness neither god nor madman is born

She's full secrets and wild she's inaccessible for tears and bitterness

Water is changing into light neither a new god nor a friend is born

She's full of repugnance and the tragic she's a naked strumpet, full of lust

You come at once that's the way it should be you are not one of us

You can lust and hate you are not one of us you don't understand my whisper

You don't understand the words in the poisonous mouth so beautiful - painful night

Because you're beyond the ring beyond God beyond fire and you don't have to be my whore and nun

You don't have to be my whore and nun your naked burden falls today full of repugnance

You don't have to pretend when you're kissing you aren't connected with the unknown

And don't have to be my whore dressed in soutane go away go and quit this night

The wind is making a web on my mouth feeds the burning fire feeds this love from God and Satan

Condemnation Part I & II

Open the book of your thoughts

They are all already there as in my memories

In my past in the book of the one forever

Devilish vision of union is something that hurts

And cursed we last and so as to forget the important  we do forget...

We forget to plunge our bodies in ecstasy and in madness 

Falsely changing our faces for the others and cursed we last and the space around us is real...

As my eternity be the curse and fire in my veins

Marking symbols, spelling curses I summon rocking hatred to my senses amongst corn and semen

Born of sin free from chains like a dog like a wolf you walk through the flames to see your own face

Your mirror is not the reflection that you create in your thoughts

Swim and use your powers swim and swear you shall reach the pain you shall feel you shall live

I see pain of existence in your looks like a curse on your faces...

Marked with Christ for ages follow empty path in blindness...

All the lies of this miserable world inside of you no stars, no truth no freedom...

Truly blind feel no hope for endless horizon of true freedom...

In hypocrisy your home and day and in ashes is this night...

You sip the blood through closed lips and forget the destiny...

Who is cursed  you, them or I  who is cursed ?

The lonely answer shall be found half the way half the time half the space

Black Blood Ov Universe

Queen of the night Mother of stars enlightening the unconquerable trail

Sky is full circles astray falling stars and mist signifying the coming of the DEAD

Queen of the night Mother of the universe you enlightened the undisturbed peace

Bestowing kisses to the night how bloody and delightful they are how lustful and immaculately clean

Queen of the night Mother of the dead with demigods and demons

Bring closer to the unbelievers the meaning of creation and DESTRUCTION…

The black blood of your circle that spills on us all!

I pledge my kiss on your bleeding feet gazing in pain upon the dying world

The blood in my veins melts the anger rejoiced I am with the coming of New Age!

Queen of the night Mother of kings the horizon bows down to your DREAMS!!!

Goddess of chaos I summon thee Lady of darkness I summon thee

Ultimate witch I summon thee Queen of beauty I summon thee

Cannibal Corpse Tribute EP II

 Scourge Of Iron

In thrall to the evil lord a procession of the damned

Sweating blood to serve the beast desolation of their souls

They slave in fire whips of Hades at their backs

The Scourge of Iron Hell's eternal pact

Lash them rip their skin

Scourge of Iron rending flesh

On earth they lived by force now the villains march in chains

Men of violence doomed in death their reward for a life of sin

They slave for eons there will be no relief

Mere pawns of evil used and then enslaved

Lash them rip their skin

Scourge of Iron rending flesh

Demonic sadists flay the damned with steel the whip strips flesh

Torments beyond the material world skinless, bleeding robbed of pride and power

In the grip of the infernal and the evil will not die

Iron whip will be relentless and the pain will never end

Lash them rip their skin

Scourge of Iron rending flesh

 They Deserve To Die

Violence is legitimate in cases such as this cruel retribution is fitting

Vengeance will be dealt out with a ruthless iron fist worthless filth receive no mercy

They deserve to die they deserve to die

Plans have been completed and the time is drawing near punishment will be relentless

They deserve to die they deserve to die

Vacuous faces hammered into mash beaten senseless, sense they never had

Merciless smashing shatters teeth and bone ignorance earned every crushing blow

Killing has just started and my lust for blood will grow justice will be found in murder

Stupid as they are they didn't know the seeds they'd sown grew into my savage hatred

They deserve to die they deserve to die

Skull is fractured by the pounding eyes dislodging from their sockets

Brains spill out, the skull is split through mind vacant, now cranium too

Guilty thoughts will not infect me soulless scum receive no pity

Deceptive tongues hewn by my blade forked like a snake now on the ground they lay

They had no conscience so there is no loss for my redemption there must be a cost

They deserve to die they deserve to die

Orgasm Through Torture

Suffer to survive instinct I despise

Stalking the night, searching for a victim to defile

Cock she craves today cum she wants to spray

And to reach the orgasm through torture

From behind, pain shivering down my spine

I feel paralyzed only controlling my mind

Strapped to a table, naked, genitals exposed

Eyes claimed open, mouth gagged shut, terrified

Locks my scrotum in a vice and tightens forcefully

Agony, silent screams, want to die

Shackled and bound, unaware my fate

Destined to be maimed to stimulate

The skin is peeled off my dick done with a razor blade

She begins to suck blood and cum amok

She rips my cock off with her teeth

Masticate, gnawing and chewing the stump

She regurgitates, I'm covered in my bloody chunks

Suffer to survive instinct I despise

I am alive, victimized tortured fate, asexual state

A Skull Full Of Maggots

Lying there cold after a torturous death your life ended fast you took your last breath

Dead in a grave, your final place the maggots infest your disfigured face

Pus through your veins takes the place of blood

Decay sets in, bones begin to crack thrown six feet down left to rot

Brains oozing black down the side of your broken neck

Skull full of maggots

They enter your tomb maggots beginning to feast maggots

Crawling on you maggots now they eat you maggots

Rotting maggots maggots infesting your corpse maggots

Parasites of the dead maggots now dwell in your head

Lying there cold after a torturous death your life ended fast you took your last breath

Dead in a grave, your final place the maggots infest your disfigured face

Pus through your veins takes the place of blood

Decay sets in, bones begin to crack thrown six feet down left to rot

Brains oozing black down the side of your broken neck

 A Skeletal Domain

Trapped beneath rotting remains a slow decay of life takes its form

Withered death and bone emerge from cemeteries of the earth

Replacing all that is known from this world

Towering structures take shape as more cities are laid to waste

Survivors of this morbid fate the reborn meek not live not dead are left to start a new

Misshapen and half mutated not a zombie not a human evil creatures grew

Not one thing left alive but them the strongest will begin to reign

A new society takes place where the way of the cannibal rules in this skeletal domain

A kingdom of the damned carnal war consuming them by eating flesh for nourishment

Solution for a short-term survival slaughtered are the weakest first

Feeding those with evil thirst as blood of the dead saturates the ground

Again the end has begun another kingdom will be damned

Survivors of this morbid fate the reborn meek not live not dead are left to start a new

Misshapen and half mutated not a zombie not a human evil creatures grew

Not one thing left alive but them the strongest will begin to reign

A new society takes place where the way of the cannibal rules in this skeletal domain

Only One Will Die

A violent conflict between two foes

At close quarters pound and slash, the blood will flow

Barbaric melee a hateful duel shared abhorrence gives the conflict

Fuel add to the fire lies resentment built for years

Now it's time to end this fight

Until the death striking to kill only one will die

The cracking bones and shattered teeth

Wounds are swelling lacerations running deep

Losing blood but still we fight both resolved to end the other's

Life the only answer hate can only end with death

Now it's time to end this fight

Until the death striking to kill only one will die

Both of us are killers both of us are evil men

Unforgiving murderers today may kill again

Both of us will throttle strangling with rage

Both consumed by madness, revenge has us enslaved

Both are badly wounded and struggle to survive

Both are fighting to the death but only one will die

Both of us will bludgeon both of us will pound

Facial bones will splinter soon, the blood will drench the ground

Both are rending flesh both are gouging eyes

Escalating violence, the brawl intensifies

Both of us will throttle strangling with rage

Both consumed by madness, revenge has us enslaved

Both are badly wounded and struggle to survive

Both are fighting to the death but only one will die

Kill the only answer hate can only end with death

Now it's time to end this fight

Until the death striking to kill only one will die
