1. Plunging To Megadeath ++++++++++++++++++++++++ Warriors on horseback from out of the sky coming to take you away Your life as it stands now in their hands it lies you won't live another full day man now he wonders just when he will die searching and seeking the truth for now he wants but one thing on this earth the perilous fortunes of youth [Chorus] Plunging to Megadeath seeking the truth plunging to Megadeath searching the youth plunge to Megadeath you live for tomorrow we live for today our strength's held here within our youth man soars through space but he still wonders who lies and just who speaks the truth worrying won't bring you one bit of good if you die you'll die not at will you'll soon be feeling the cold hand of doom is your blood beginning to chill? [Chorus] Nighttime falls in the city your lying alone in your bed the picture in your dreams isn't pretty the tombstone lies there at your head warriors on horseback from out of the sky coming to take you away your life as it stands now in their hands in lies you won't live another full day man now, he worries just when he will die searching and seeking the truth for now, he wants but one thing on this earth the perils and fortunes of youth [Chorus] 2. Outer Limits +++++++++++++++ They're coming, they're soaring they're flying right out of the sky you're hearing the screams of your comrades and wondering why stare at the skies as they're starting to land you sob and you cry with your head in your hands they come without warning no mercy they show soon you'll be seeing the end of the world alien forces from out of the sky conquering all who appear to their eyes they come without warning no mercy they show soon you'll be seeing the end of the world You can't imagine what terror they bring a world gone mad where bedlam is king [Chorus] Under, your under invasion terror unknown to man under, your under invasion reeks terror across the land run for shelter they're moving in soon the world will be seeing the end You can't imagine what terror they bring a world gone mad where bedlam is king they're coming, they're soaring they're flying right out of the sky you're hearing the screams of your comrades and wondering why stare at the skies as they're starting to land you sob and you cry with your head in your hands You can't imagine what terror they bring a world gone mad where bedlam is king [Chorus] under, your under invasion blinding beams of light under, your under invasion they shall overcome tonight 3. Horrorshow +++++++++++++ There exists two worlds for you one is false and one is true I have lost my shirt my friends paranoid vision, my brain is mildew I lost reality long ago now I live in a Horrorshow! reality is a tightrope trick once fell, real beasts devour quick my fictional beasts are real to me my very thoughts a caustic I lost reality long ago now I live in a Horrorshow! Truth, fiction, one and the same one is real, the other to blame I don't care what your bishops say truth shall eat the skull of the lame I lost reality long agonow I live in a Horrorshow! 4. The Mansion ++++++++++++++ I walked into the room There came a voice saying aloud "Thou hast no business here!" "Your best bets to get out!" The spirits in my head said "You don't have to run!" "You don't have to run!" I was not afraid of the dead I'd dealt with them before That's how I got my new life 1000 years ago or more I knew i must return to this house too much for me to bear the world outside, I just can't stand I just can't live out there! The spirits in my head said "You don't have to run!" "You don't have to run!" She's waiting for you in the upstairs room she's waiting for you in her bed she's waiting for you as you're climbing the stairs she's waiting for you and she's dead! Close the door feel the presence of Black Magic! Thinking that you'll never die is so tragic you hold her close, you look into her dark eyes Could this be, the devil in disguise? 5. There Are No Rules +++++++++++++++++++++ Shake your fist at the sky did your god up and die did your hero ever lie does your brain ever fry there are no rules let the thunder cry mean let the gods make a scene how can you fight it out throw your head back and shout there are no rules what gives you the right to stand up and fight there is only one rule though it may sound cruel there are no rules the wages of sin have the highest wage take a trip through hell cause the demons to rage there are no rules every generation bears a soldier of the truth who marches through the realm setting fire to every roof yelling there are no rules and as the flames leap high into the stormy night he leaps onto a log and laughs at the masses burning bright yelling there are no rules feel the flame in my voice do you have any choice but to reach out for the sky grab the sun you may no die there are no rules let the armies of the land march on till their damned my fetus will not spill on the ground that they till there are no rules shake your god by the robe tell him what you intend that's what it's gonna be he'll know in the end that there are no rules there are no rules there are no rules there are no ruaaaaa!! 6. Valley Of The Dolls Instrumental 7. Metal Merchants ++++++++++++++++++ MerchantsConquering and pillaging our metal it will stand the mighty metallion will be heard across the land in the end aren't we all animals and leather is the word so welcome to the human zoo where metal can be heard [Chorus] Metal Merchants Metal Merchants Conquering and pillaging unleashed and let go death to modern music and to all who oppose we'll blacken eyes of their severed heads dismember them at night we'll shove our metal down their throats and show them who is right [Chorus] Bang your head against the stage Throw, throw your fist up in the air don't worry their downgrading of our leather and long hair thrusting with a vengeance now we know just what they are we're all metal merchants and there ain't no fucking stars. [Chorus] 8. Hallows Eve (Including Routine) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Hear the voices, see the faces feel the chill of the fog rolling let me bring you, tales of terror let me bring you, the macabre tale of Hallows Eve, let me bring you terror fear grips your heart as you've ne'r known Hallows Eve, let me bring you horror shock grips your soul, as you've ne'r known lay your ear to the floor hear us down below calling to be released from your private twilight zone Hallows Eve, the rising of the dead Hallows Eve, and bedlam will rule Hallows Eve, turn look past the shadows our dark carnival is about to begin! Arriving home as you've done everyday before up you walk, up to you everyday door pulling out the key you've known so long you open the door and everything is wrong before your eyes a paradise unfolds money trees, whiskey and wenches to hold turn around to see the door is gone forget 'bout the home you've known so long you turn to face the enigmatic scene it is all so beautiful yet this is no dream it is all you ever wanted, don't be naive see the gates around, you can't leave such frustration to be trapped in a cage ...skin of fair wrenching only serves to enrage they offer you the fruits of all you see you can't have the goods 'cause you're not free suddenly the trees are burnt and dead the babbling brook turns to bloody red the demonic faces of the women turn only to reveal that now you'll burn demons of all kind appear their faces all distort and leer one is wielding quite an axe you are thrown upon your back the axe is raised above your head.... "STOP!! it is not yet his time, but we will have him soon enough..." The harpies with their webbed wings laugh away the Filthy One says that you can't stay the Master syas your time has not begun we will send you back, but we will have our fun it won't take long and you'll be back for good we'll let you meet the axe-man with the hood he will rind your bones and we'll have our meat you'll feel and be alive, but grovel at our feet arriving home as you've done everyday before up you walk, up to your everyday door though you don't know why, you feel quite strange you leave your home behind, guess, you need a change? hear those voices, see those faces feel the chill of the fog rolling let me bring you tales of terror let me bring you the macabre tale of Hallows Eve, let me bring you terror fear grips your heart as you've never known Hallows Eve, let me bring you horror shock grips your soul, as you've never known lay your ear to the floor hear us down below hear the wicked saint laugh from his vile embryo a toast my friends to you, rehearse you loudest scream, I am out to get you, I am I am hellish grace, thief of light lurking always in the night I could have you one by one creeping round till I'm done demons taking to the sky round and round and round they fly the well are sick, the sick are well living in eternal hell celebrate the quaking quill of Edgar Allan Poe, you will scream, scream for your Christ everlasting antichrist bouts with death do not serve to change a man's belief, just nerve only to reveal more clear just who does he serve on Hallows Eve?
