Track Listing
On the sea They heard the voices sing Through the storm The island’s closing in They’d heard tales Of lives lost at sea Deserted beach just beyong their reach You’re approaching the island of the Sirens Sirens Hungry for man tonight Sirens Sirens Claiming the sailors’ lives Nine men made it to a shore A night of terror Lies neatly in store Who are those women? Are they real? Is this just a crazy dream? You’re approaching the island of the Sirens Sirens Hungry for flesh tonight Sirens Sirens Claiming the sailors’ lives Terror happens quickly Remains till the sailor are gone They vanished in the night Sirens singing their song Whoa–till they’re gone… ALL RIGHT!!
what will 2000 bring? the war of a billion things when darkness seizes the lords and darkness sends his judgement sword they march through the battle fields start the destruction wheels a scream of terror through the night the armies do their final fight holocaust final loss holocaust what will the end bring to my life? are you poisoned by? are you for the night? are you by the night? holocaust final loss holocaust listen to what i say we are coming upon the day when toxic gas fills the air and life on earth can’t be found anywhere you run, but where can you hide? from the shelters i hear you cry the bombs bursting in air God help me i’m so scared! holocaust final loss holocaust what will the end bring to my life? are you poisoned by? are you for the night? are you by the night? holocaust final loss holocaust
Beyond the skies, horizon so high Set a course for the unknown But I believe there’s life out there Somehow we’ll find it The countdown begins Our ship will soon launch On its perilous flight to the stars A civilized race, on some distant world We’ll find you wherever you are I believe we’ll find a new world Can’t you see we cannot return? Systems are go as we leave behind A planet that’s doomed to endNuclear wars, the polluted seas Doomsday begins its descent Where do we go? What’ll we find? Is there life Other than mine? I believe For two-thousand years we sought and we searched The galaxy’s black holes in space Then on the day of 30-13 we came upon a race I believe we can survive on this sphere Plotting a course to enter our stratosphere We’re finally here, can we survive? A cryosphere I hope there’s life I believe We land our ship on a green barren plain Once outside from a box the voice came: Welcome to Earth May we ask who you are? Our race is called Man The planet is doomed
I’ve been pushed out, but I’m back up on my feet I’ve been turned down by every girl I meet Got the symptoms of one going insane Learn to live my life with ups and downs and pain I know, child, how to play the game Rage My life’s a total hell, I can’t take it no more People walking over me, time to even the score Why do you treat me, badly, don’t you need me I’m way too young to die, need my destiny I know love, it is all a game Rage Rage, rage, rage I’m planting my dynamite outside of city hall Remembering the time I spent locked inside four walls Hand on the button, the countdown begins Am I gonna burn in hell for all my lifelong sins? I know love, it is all a game Rage Rage, rage, rage Rage Rage, rage, rage
Ow! My legs are breakin’, can’t take it no more Six days in a haze, locked behind a door Searchlight on my trail, I hear the sirens wail Footsteps close behind, they’re after me now Moonlight lights the way to a clearing up ahead Light shines through the trees, the hunter flees again How long can I run? I feel it’s just begun Nowhere left to hide, they’re gaining on me Oh, on the run, Oh, on the run, run, run I can’t run anymore, they move just way too fast Finally caught up to me, a victim of my past I feel them closing in, the bad guy just can’t win I will not go back, I’m still on the run Oh, on the run, Oh, on the run, run, run, run, run, run
Twisted little sister Roller skate baby Driving me crazy tonight I’m bound in your luscious chains Beat me and hurt me I love to get into pain You never knew What this pain could do for you Go down-down-down To the penitentiary I tried suicide – Little sister ride Hoping for more bodies to burn For such an action Call main attraction you’ll learn I’m gagged-gagged and tied to a bed Sweet tasting sister Love what you do to my head You never knew What this pain could do for you Go down-down-down To the penitentiary I tried suicide – Little sister ride Broken Broken heart at the seams I know you hate me You know you ate me so mean But now that my session is through Twisted sister I’m longing for you (come here) You never knew Baby I need you Go down-down-down To the penitentiary I tried suicide – Little sister ride
In circles the winless fall Heads trapped between the wall Sonic blast right through their ears Iron curtain the mighty will fall Visions on a crystal ball Sorry tales of days gone past Living for the night Living for the night Just a thought Before your mind is lost Do you know who you are? Criminal days Life trapped inside a maze And little children can’t go out Living for the night Living for the night Out of touch Out of control You watch the metal roll You play the part Just oh so well Like a torch Without a flame A pleasure victim of pain You’re caught inside You can’t get out Living for the night Living for the night Living for the night Living for the night Living for the night
He’s chasing you down the alleys of death Where many have died, and where you will breathe your final breath Your pulse starts to quicken, blood runs to your head You start to feel sick by the thought of becomin’ dead Scream murder, he’s coming for you Blade in his hand, he knows what to do, yeah Scream murder, what can you do? No one to help, it’s just him and you He brings harm to your senses of fear A feeling that will not disappear, as the bells of midnight toll Where can you run to? Where can you hide? This feeling has built up inside He’s gonna take it out on you How his alley resembles the morgue Can’t you hear the pounding of the doors? That is his house, he’s gonna get you today Scream murder! The last words you say Scream murder, he’s coming for you Blade in his hand, he knows what to do, yeah Scream murder, what can you do? No one to help, it’s just him and you He’s gonna get you Alright! Alright! No! No! Get away! No! No! No!
Far, far away I’d like to touch you But you’re not here today And now’s the time I need you most I think about the days we were close Baby I need you here. I’m out on the streets alone tonight, Looking for you it don’t seem right Baby don’t you know I’m falling apart How could you break my heart? Walking down the avenues The ones I would walk with you It’s funny how the nights last so long And with the dawn comes another day Why won’t you call me babe, You see I can’t hold on I’m out on the streets alone tonight Looking for you it don’t seem right Baby don’t you know I’m falling apart How could you break my heart?
