1.	Silent Kings & Queens 04:59	lyrics
The darkest ages, they are here Evil rules the World and there´s bloodlust in the air Somebody’s profit is someone’s misfortune, Gold in the pocket and death of a child Guilty are those who stand watching in silence, They with the answers, they with the truth Silent witness on the Shore Stare into the sea they’re all gone forevermore We follow a path into eternal darkness, Black empty souls and our heart´s made of stone God is a Devil who plays with his children, Then leaving them all alone Silent Kings and Queens just don´t want to see They just close their eyes, Won´t give you no pity Silent Kings and Queens they just let it be System has failed it's corrupt and inhuman System has served for the eyes that never see And all the gossip, all the lies People spread their shit without a blink or thinking twice Poor little thing who is begging for mercy, Mercy is not in the plan for you Evil has come for a feast in all glory, nothing that you can do The darkest ages, so they say Evil rules the World and the weak they just obey Somebody’s profit is someone’s misfortune, Gold in the pocket and death of a child Guilty are those who stand watching in silence, They with the answers, they with the truth Silent Kings and Queens just don´t want to see They just close their eyes, Won´t give you no pity Silent Kings and Queens they just let it be System has failed it's corrupt and inhuman System has served for the eyes that never see Silent Kings and Queens just don´t want to see They just close their eyes, Won´t give you no pity Silent Kings and Queens they just let it be System has failed it's corrupt and inhuman System has served for the eyes that never see
2.	Hate 05:54	lyrics
I see you dancing thru the acid rain Our dying planet try to live thru the pain A scream of anger, a cry in the night The total darkness, the absence of light Like evil vultures we destroy and disturb Old Mother Nature every flower and herb And in the meantime, we hate and we fear Is this the purpose, is it therefore we´re here? We´re all blind refuse to see We´re all dead, you and me I close my eyes and let it all go away I just can´t stand to see the jesters that pray The total chaos, the terror and war we create There are no choices for the weak and the poor, it´s too late We´ve built this World on hate I ain't bitter but I lost all the hope The Men Who rule this World are such a big joke Now they will kill us, on purpose or not Hand on the trigger, the finger is hot A nuclear war is just a second away Before we know it, it is here one day I´m not bitter, I´m just looking at fact It´s now or never, we have to react We´re all blind refuse to see We´re all dead, you and me I close my eyes and let it all go away I just can´t stand to see the jesters that pray The total chaos, the terror and war we create There are no choices for the weak and the poor, it´s too late We've built this World on hate
3.	Black 04:10	lyrics
All the weak lost souls who fallen for her charm They are all enslaved, the needle in the arm Endlessly craving for more Battle inside it’s a war Miserable junk on the floor Then it´s all black And they all came down to see her Like a Heroine in black And they scream when they can´t find her Miserable junk on the floor It all went Black Lurking around in the dark, she´s always to be found Once you've tasted the spice, you´re doomed, you´re lost and bound Endlessly craving for more Battle inside it’s a war Miserable junk on the floor Then it´s all black And they all came down to see her Like a Heroine in black And they scream when they can´t find her Miserable junk on the floor It all went Black And they all came down to see her Like a Heroine in black And they scream when they can´t find her Miserable junk on the floor It all went Black
4.	The Conclusion 05:57	lyrics
Have you ever come to the conclusion, happiness is just a strange illusion? Darkness in our hearts is the emotion, fill this endless black and frozen ocean Slayer of humanity is nothing out of hell. It comes right from the naked human soul It has always been this way. And it will always be. We are blind support stupidity Have you ever come to the conclusion, happiness is just a strange illusion? Darkness in our hearts is the emotion, fill this endless black and frozen ocean Can´t you see the master plan? The reason for it all It´s good to keep the hordes under control Keep them hungry, give them hope, let them have dream feed the lies inject it in the soul Have you ever come to the conclusion, happiness is just a strange illusion? Darkness in our hearts is the emotion, fill this endless black and frozen ocean They who protest, punish hard, show no dignity Put their flesh into public display. Put the slaves into the line, teach them to behave. Let them know there is no other way Have you ever come to the conclusion, happiness is just a strange illusion? Darkness in our hearts is the emotion, fill this endless black and frozen ocean They who protest, punish hard, show no dignity Put their flesh into public display. Put the slaves into the line, teach them to behave. Let them know there is no other way
5.	Zombie Stomp 02:21	lyrics
Went into the pub for a brewskie, Everybody´s looking so strange Teddy´s drinking lager for ages, now he says "brainz" Someone´s try to eat up my elbow, someone tries to chew on my knee Hey I just came here for a pint, man, so please leave me be I look right into the dead eyes that're staring at me, I think you're acting pretty strange for a pub night I think I'll leave if you don´t want a fight, you stop chewing on me You´re all living dead Told the chick beside me I like her, then she dropped her head to the floor Even if she smells a bit rotten, a trick to adore Said are you some kind of magician, got another trick up your sleeve? She bit me in the foot and said "brainz," Time for me to leave I look right into the dead eyes that're staring at me, I think you're acting pretty strange for a pub night I think I leave if you don´t want a fight, you stop chewing on me You´re all living dead I look right into the dead eyes that're staring at me, I think you acting pretty strange for a pub night I think I leave if you don´t want a fight you see, stop chewing on me You´re all living dead
6.	Skeleton Blues 04:32	lyrics
Loaded like a freight train, I'm into the blues Creeping in to my brain, dancing in my shoes I think I'll fall to pieces, I'm down on my knees Take me to a better place, please sister please Too stoned to feel my legs and my bone Don't you ever never leave me alone Here I stand now baby, Ready to conquer a World without hope So confused but ready Still I believe in this rock n roll thing Will you join me maybe, don´t have a clue what the night will bring Let the music tease ya Come on join me all you pimps and hoes Let's boogie to the Skeleton Blues Devil on my shoulder, won't let me stop I'm down into the deepest hole, I'm over the top The rhythm in my soul pleasure and pain Runnin' in my system, all over my brain Too stoned to feel my legs and my bone Don't you ever never leave me alone Here I stand now baby, Ready to conquer a world without hope So confused but ready Still I believe in this rock 'n' roll thing Will you join me maybe, don´t have a clue what the night will bring Let the music tease ya Come on join me all you pimps and hoes Let's boogie to the Skeleton Blues Here I stand now baby, Ready to conquer a world without hope So confused but ready Still I believe in this rock 'n' roll thing Will you join me maybe, don´t have a clue what the night will bring Let the music tease ya Come on join me all you pimps and hoes Let's boogie to the Skeleton Blues
7.	Deaf and Blind 04:04	lyrics
Sweet little saviour who ever you are? Don´t you think the World today is quite bizarre? Dude is driving in a Van thru the Mall, the only goal is to kill them all People tortured in the worst kind of way, come on people now it´s time to pray So where’s the blessings you are waiting for? The higher Power who created this gore? So they say there´s a day when we all see the light, when we all live as one, I don´t think so Charlatans rule over weak and blind Evil from birth is the Human Mind Poor are the souls, they who seek and find Answers in Books from an ancient time Charlatans rule over week and blind Greed is the way of the Human Kind Sun ain´t shining in the Human Zoo. Can´t you see you´re Both deaf and blind There´s no hope for the woman who pray, where`s her saviour, she got raped today Cancer took a little boy today, was he a sinner who lived the wrong way? All Religion caused us so much pain, it´s like a poison in the human vein Shake my head 'cause it´s all insane, and will we learn, or do it over again? So they say there´s a day when we all see the light, when we all live as one, I don´t think so Charlatans rule over weak and blind Evil from birth is the Human Mind Poor are the souls, they who seek and find Answers in Books from an ancient time Charlatans rule over week and blind Greed is the way of the Human Kind Sun ain´t shining in the Human Zoo. Can´t you see you´re Both deaf and blind
8.	All Hail The King 03:00	lyrics
Still Ringing in my ears, You rocked me from the early years No Mercy there´s no lies, Till the end you never compromise Fist of Iron for the Soul, All Hail the King of Rock n Roll “Fuck the Devil and fuck Church too,” I remember that quote from you So missed now you´re gone, Not a sound from Murder One Fist of Iron for the Soul, All Hail the King of Rock n Roll Fist of Iron for the Soul, All Hail the King of Rock n Roll Still Ringing in my ears, You rocked me from the early years No Mercy there´s no lies, Till the end you never compromise Fist of Iron for the Soul, All Hail, All Hail the King All hail the King, the King, the King of rock n roll We all hail, we all hail, we all hail, the King of rock n roll We all hail, we all hail, we all hail, the King of rock n roll
9.	Evil 05:15	lyrics
World's gone mad and days go by, I watch the news with sadness in my eyes We haven’t learned a thing or two, Religious war under the blood red skies I wish I could sing a song for freedom I wish I could say that it´s alright… alright The evil inside the human nature The hatred inside the human mind The evil human kind Don´t be late, just learn to hate, the industry of war depends on you They make you feel so insecure, but God is dead, so who is fooling who? I wish I could sing a song for freedom I wish I could say that it´s alright… alright The evil inside the human nature The hatred inside the human mind The evil human kind World's gone mad and days go by, I watch the news with sadness in my eyes We haven’t learned a thing or two, Religious war under the blood red skies I wish I could sing a song for freedom I wish I could say that it´s alright… alright The evil inside the human nature The hatred inside the human mind The evil human kind
10.	The End 05:19	lyrics
Feel how they're chewing, on your skin and bone Slaving for all your life, now they left you all alone Greed is the symbol, laughing in your face Duties you've paid are gone, it's such a big disgrace welfare's just a fading memory who's to blame, we have a voice, you see Corrupted politicians And leaders without heart and soul Welfare's not their mission You are a number without a name Nobody cares if you die int he gutter, disposable, replaceable They are too busy collecting the gold, so just work and die, then goodbye The end, the end Work like a robot, from dusk till dawn You will produce, we measure every move you make Don't ever question what is going on Brain is on overload and every muscle aches Welfare's just a fading memory Who's to blame, we have a voice you see Corrupted politicians and leaders without heart and soul Welfare's not their mission You're just a number without a name This is the living game Nobody cares if you die in the gutter, disposable, replaceable They are too busy collecting the gold, so just work and die, then goodbye The end, the end. Nobody cares if you die in the gutter, disposable, replaceable They are too busy collecting the gold, so just work and die, then goodbye The end, the end.
