Overkill

Our Finest Hour

I can get you there, it ain't too far from here
On your side, let's take a ride, I'm a metallic engineer
So murder is a sin, but weapons set you free
Just hop on in, I'm gonna take you there, you're a lot like me!

Beats waiting on the corner
Your hand jammed down your pants
Take a ride, take a look, take a chance now, baby
A breakdown circumstance

Stand and pledge allegiance
To the air, the land, the sea
Take a ride, take a look, take a chance now, baby
You're a lot like me

Can't you see you're a lot like me?
Can't you see it was meant to be?
Can't you see you're a lot like me?
Can't you see, can't you see?

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand in this, our finest hour

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand in this, our finest hour

Hang on to the handle, we're just about to land
Lock and load, feel the road, keep it close at hand
So murder is a sin, to some it's just a game
Don't make a sound, low to the ground, I know we are the same

Beats waiting for that maybe
Ya finger up your nose
Take a ride, take a look, take a chance now, baby
And strike that bad-ass pose

They haven't got a snowball's chance
Once they know your name
Take a ride, take a look, take a chance now, baby
I know we are the same

Can't you see you're a lot like me?
Can't you see it was meant to be?
Can't you see you're a lot like me?
Can't you see we were meant to be
Meant to be, meant to be?

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand in this, our finest hour

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand, I'll hold your hand
I'll hold your hand, I'll hold your hand

Somebody call to the EMS
Somebody call to the priest
Somebody lay out a blessing on the soul of the deceased
Somebody dearly departed was not praying to the beast
Somebody call our finest hour on the soul of the deceased

I'm not going easy in the light of all this power
I'm not going easy in this our finest hour

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand in this, our finest hour

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand, I'll hold your hand

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand in this, our finest hour

I'll be your conscience, I'll be your guide
I'll be the black-hand that stops your genocide
I'll be the understanding, undisputed power
I'll hold your hand, I'll hold your hand in this, our finest hour

Megadeth

Tornado of Souls

This morning I made the call
The one that ends it all
Hanging up, I wanted to cry
But dammit, this well's gone dry
Not for the money, not for the fame
Not for the power, just no more games

But now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado
I can't replace the lies, that let a thousand days go
No more living trapped inside
In her way I'll surely die
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away

You'll grow to loathe my name
You'll hate me just the same
You won't need your breath
And soon you'll meet your death
Not from the years, not from the use
Not from the tears, just self abuse

But now I'm safe in the eye of the tornado
I can't replace the lies, that let a thousand days go
No more living trapped inside
In her way I'll surely die
In the eye of the tornado, blow me away

Who's to say, what's for me to say?
Who's to say, what's for me to be?
Who's to say, what's for me to do?
Cause a big nothing it'll be for me

The land of opportunity
The golden chance for me
My future looks so bright
Now I think I've seen the light

Can't say what's on my mind
Can't do what I really feel
In this bed I made for me
Is where I sleep, I really feel

I warn you of the fate
Proven true too late
Your tongue twist perverse
Come drink now of this curse
And now I fill your brain
I spin you round again
My poison fills your head
As I tuck you into bed

You feel my fingertips
You won't forget my lips
You'll feel my cold breath
It's the kiss of death

Shattered Sanity


Some people
Hide in the depths of their minds
Hell itself
Can't help it but compromise
To this voice
That whispers inside their head
Cracking their brain
Twisting their reality
RE-A-LI-TY
A beast is lurking
For years under their skin
Waiting to strike
Time to feed
Look close
Can you see the shadow of death?
Into their eyes
Haunting their soul
Taking your life is an instinct they cannot control
Cruelty disturbingly pure
Taking your life is an instinct they cannot control
Cruelty disturbingly pure
They look like you
TALK LIKE YOU
Nothing gives away their
Shattered
Sanity
Shattered!
Damaged by life, excited by DEATH
Some people
Hide instincts you won't learn in school
A hell in their own minds
For them it seems
Natural and pure
Maybe they suffered
Youth in pain and despair
Parental abuse
Wounds you can't fucking see
By naked eye!
Afraid to close their eyes
Someone else may take control
Screams in the night
Echoes of a spotted mind
They look like you
TALK LIKE YOU
Nothing gives away their
Shattered
Sanity
Shattered!
Damaged by life, excited by DEATH

In the daylight
I'm your sweetheart
Your goody-two-shoes prude is a work of art
But you don't know me
And soon you won't forget
Bad as can be, yeah you know I'm not so innocent

Better beware I go bump in the night
Devil-may-care with a lust for life
And I know you
Can't resist this
You know you
Are so addicted
Boy you better run for your life

Welcome to the nightmare in my head
(Oh god!)
Say hello to something scary
The monster in your bed
(Oh god!)
Just give in and you won't be sorry
Welcome to my other side
Hello it's Mz. Hyde

I can be the bitch
I can play the whore
Or your fairytale princess who could ask for more
A touch of wicked
A pinch of risqué
Good girl gone bad, my poison is your remedy

Better be scared, better be afraid
Now that the beast is out of her cage
And I know you
Wanna risk it
You know you
Are so addicted
Boy, you better run for your life

Welcome to the nightmare in my head
(My god!)
Say hello to something scary
The monster in your bed
(My god!)
Just give in and you won't be sorry
Welcome to my evil side
Hello it's Mz. Hyde
Hello it's Mz. Hyde
Hello it's Mz. Hyde

I'm the spider crawling down your spine
Underneath your skin
I will gently violate your mind
Before I tuck you in
Put on the blindfold
There's no way to be sure
Which girl you'll get tonight
(It's me, Lzzy, I swear!)

Welcome to the nightmare in my head
(My god!)
Say hello to something scary
The monster in your bed
(My god!)
Just give in and you won't be sorry
The nightmare in my head
(Oh god!)
Say hello to something scary
The monster in your bed
(Oh god!)
Just give in and you won't be sorry
Welcome to my evil side
Hello it's Mz. Hyde
Hello it's Mz. Hyde

Primal Concrete Sledge

There's a double standard for the way we live
If there's nothing to have, well then there's nothing to give
I'll break a sweat and I don't regret
What you'd kill to see brings out the god in me.

Come and be with me
Live my twisted dream
Pro devoted pledge
Time for primal concrete sledge…FUCK

The man of a thousand retirements
Will always be the one to tell you when to quit
I won't take stock in a withered man
I'm reaching into you, I'll make you understand

Come and be with me
Live my twisted dream
Pro devoted pledge
Time for primal concrete sledge

Come and be with me
Live my twisted dream
Pro devoted pledge
Time for primal concrete sledge

Come and be with me
Live my twisted dream
Pro devoted pledge
Time for primal concrete sledge

Annihilator

No Way Out

Turn on the television
What did I see?
A selfish evil psychopath
Vacant eyes looking at me
On trial run for your life
One big waste of time
Shot to the head sliced throat
Stabbed in the back the crime

Testify crucify
There is no way out
Suicide suicide
There is no way out for you

Rise lies manipulation
Too many stories to keep
Well this time it’s bit you in the ass
You're in too deep
Their against a fucking bitch
The center of the world
Into the pits of hell
Hell

Testify crucify
There is no way out
Suicide suicide
There is no way out for you

Writing the name of your victim
And drag his name through the blood
No regrets for your actions (no regret)
And no remorse for the blood (blood)

So tragic we wonder why
You sentenced a man to die (die)

Pre-meditation
You tried to cover your tracks
Without hesitation
Clean up the scene of attack
Convenient memory loss
Acting like this is fun
Can't seem to remember
What the hell have you done

Testified, crucified
There is no way out
Suicide, suicide
There is no way out

Testified, crucified
There is no way out
Suicide, suicide
There is no way out
For you
(For you)

Coroner

Masked Jackal

I saw his face on every channel
His slogans in all the papers
I heard people, repeat his words
I saw them shouting, his flag in their hands

I saw him making promises
I heard him talk about life
But I saw his fingers too
They were crossed behind his back

Darling of the TV screen
Manipulator of the purse strings
Master of the spoken words
Jackal with connections

Worshipped by the masses
Leader with ulterior motives

Darling of the TV screen
Manipulator of the purse strings
Master of the spoken words
Jackal with connections

Worshipped by the masses
Leader with ulterior motives

His slate, clean as snow
Covers over his dark past
To be in league with workers
Pictures he loved to see

But I read in his eyes
Promotion reality
He played his part to the end
Shot leaving a shambles

Darling of the TV screen
Manipulator of the purse strings
Master of the spoken words
Jackal with connections

Worshipped by the masses
Leader with ulterior motives

Worshipped by the masses
Leader with ulterior motives

Arch-Matheos-Stained Glass Sky

Morning desert sun horizon
Rise above the sands of time
Come journey to Arcana
Travel starry spheres in trine

Master they shall fear thee
Martyr they endear thee
Father it was written, so it shall be
Mother yield the pure seed
Child it's your destiny so
Hallowed by thy name

Under stained glass sky
A crown of thorns it intertwines
The mortal and divine together
Under stained glass sky

Sands of the dunes and dust of the bones
Have swallowed them and all left behind
Gods of the fire fall from the sky
On a wing and a prayer

Master they shall fear thee
Martyr they endear thee
Father it was written, so it shall be
Mother yield the pure seed
Child it's your destiny so
Hallowed be thy name

Under stained glass sky
A wailing wall of tears divides
The trinity of terror spawning
Under stained glass sky
Under stained glass sky, I don't want to die

I've fallen from the sky
I know what I am in their eyes
Truths are only lies told over and over again
Pray tell my hands are tied
An infidel here lies
Rise the crimson tide of a dead sea
Where nothing can ever survive

She rose from the crimson tide
The maiden dead waters baptized
Tears rain from her eyes
Drowning the depths of her soul
Standing with her maker, giver and the taker
Siren from the shore she echoes these
And curses them all

Living, dying, bleeding, crying
Elvin and serpentine under a midnight sun
Shadows are dancing, spirits romancing
The cautious embrace of a quiet refrain
Dreaming, praying, trusting, believing
The truth of her testament witness to all that remains
Cloaked in silence, shrouds of violence
A radical harem has twisted her tongue
Dream the last dream, dance the last dance, breathe the last breath
A penance for what she dare believe

As the tempest rends there's a maiden that mends
An interwoven tapestry
Shreds of truth in the sacred stratum
Embroidered with iniquities
By any measure heirloom treasure
Threads of doubt kingdoms fell
This lady she knows all that glitters isn't gold
Her stairway to heaven is a matrix through hell

Conspiring eyes through a veil of lies
A whirling dervish dances in
The here and the after rage for the master
It was written so it shall be
As they sleep the devil's kitchen
Prepares a feast of misbeliefs
The collective screams of tortured souls
Brought Satan to his knees
Brought him to his knees

Master they shall fear thee
Martyr they endear thee
Father it was written, so it shall be
Mother yields the pure seed
Child it's your destiny so
Hallowed be thy name

Under stained glass sky
A crown of thorns it intertwines
The mortal and divine together
Under stained glass sky

Round and round and up and down the dervish goes
Where his tempest rends the prophets have foretold
Maiden who knows all that glitters isn't gold
Sacrificial lamb, hallowed be thy name

Under ashen sky
Continents they can't divide
The interwoven tapestry
The fabric of our lives
