Resurrection (Halford/Lachman/Baxter/Z)
I'm digging deep inside my soul To bring myself out of this God-damned hole I rid the demons from my heart And found the truth was with me from the start
Holy angel lift me from this burning hell Resurrection make me whole Son of Judas bring the saints to my revenge Resurrection bring me home
I walked alone into a Fight No longer standing in satanic light I tried to look too far ahead And saw the road go to my past instead
Holy angel lift me from this burning hell Resurrection make me whole Son of Judas bring the saints to my revenge Resurrection bring me home
I've faced the things I've said and done There is no bastard left to overcome The peace of mind I thought was lost Was right in front of me on paths I've crossed
Made In Hell (Halford/Baxter/Z)
From memories of 68 when the wizard shook the world Metal came from foundries where the midlands sound unfurled The bullring was a lonely place of concrete towers and steel The coal mines and the industries were all I had to fell.
Something inside took hold of me, I really didn't know But overtime it came to be, I knew which way to go I drove around in search of what would make this all come true From jazz and elecricity and good old southern blues
Hell, we're born to raise some hell Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
In Henry's and in mother's where I'd go to bang my head The feeling took a hold of me with every word I said The voice was born and came alive from all I saw and heard And now I knew my destiny, I had to spread the word.
I took the scream around the world From London to L.A. Unleashed in downtown Tokyo Blew Godzilla away
Then on the sound and fury went from Sydney to Brazil It sent the Russians crazy cause they never get their fill.
Of Hell, we're born to raise some hell Hell, we're gonna raise some hell Hell, we're born to raise some hell Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
The stage and the lights and the amps are ablaze watch them burn From all this insanity the Metal God's will return.
Shock waves attack relentlessly, intimidating force So many bands surrounding you with evil from our source It screams across the universe and slams you to the floor This blitzkrieg psycho mania is coming on full roar The world's a stage that's waiting for its bad ass to get kicked And we're all on the road to hell and that's route 666
Hell, we're born to raise some hell Hell, we're gonna raise some hell Hell, we're born to raise some hell Hell, we're gonna raise some hell
Screaming In The Dark (Halford)
Inner world trance of the lifeless souls Search and destroy of the damned Turning the grave of the bleached out bones Rise of the ghosts of bedlam
Lay on the blade of the cold guillotine Feeling the steel on my spine Taste of the blood as it falls from my mouth I'm evil suspended in time
Scream In the dark Of my world Inner dark
Why? Does the torture remain and persist? Die? Can I never submit and resistance?
Down on my side The nightmares colliding I'm writhing and raging in flames Bite on the bitch on the back of the beast Burning desert plains
Scream In the dark Of my world Inner dark
Violence rides as the human race dies Death bringer stabs away life
Scream In the dark Of my world Inner dark
Screaming In the
Screaming In the
Screaming Inner darkness of my world
Golgotha (Halford/Chlasciak/Lachman/Baxter)
Golgotha, rise up from your tomb Devil's had a taste of holy water Lost children need your guiding hand Take them through the fire of the promised land
Now we've come together We're all waiting for a sign If it takes forever We believe in the divine
Grand Canyon, source of all our dreams Protected from a billion years of evil Golden fire - thunder all around Covenants will cover up you sinners
Now we've come together We're all waiting for a sign If it takes forever We believe in the divine
Overcoming tyranny to desecrate the entity - satanical Laying waste this sick disease That crippled, maimed, feel to our knees - like Jericho
Pile of skulls crunched under foot Torched remains are crying out - satanical Rising up to purge and scourge the killing of our paradise - like Jericho
Salvation...
Now we've come together We're all waiting for a sign If it takes forever We believe in the divine
Silent Screams (Halford/Marlette)
Look at me I'm chasing After dreams left in the storm What I am is all That really matters now That lies are gone - That lies are gone, All the lies are gone, The lies are gone.
Tempting fate and losing Friends along the way I loved No regrets I'm standing With a needle in my heart - Needle in my heart, Needle in my heart, Needle in my heart.
You'll never know My life means everything Still I scream because There's nothing left to do until the end.
The world goes on With all that I've become And still I scream inside For all the pain I've taken hasn't changed.
Nothing's changed at all The truth is like a chain Heaven's calling me The place that I belong Killing pain - Killing pain.
Close my eyes a million faces Get inside my mind. Take a breath and fill my troubled Soul with all mankind. Killing pain - Killing pain, I'm killing pain, Killing pain.
The world goes on With all that I've become. And still I scream inside For all the pain I've taken hasn't changed...
The man in black I'm coming back to spew my evil hate. My crown of horns and bloody thorns I'll dig up what you fear.
I am the shape that's in your room that watches over you. I am the needle in your heart - your disillusioned God.
I am God, I am fate, I am all the sins you make, yeah - hate. I am black, I am white, I am the blood upon the knife, yeah - hate.
Since time began I made a vow to drag you underground; To steal your soul of purity and watch you waste away.
I am pure, I am right, I'm the God that makes you fight, yeah - hate. I am life, I am death, I will steal your final breath, yeah - hate.
I prey upon your brocken dreams your weakness gives me strength. I'm laughing at your silent screams I'll crush you with my hate.
You take it all And face the fear that's here Until the Silence Screams it leaves you with no choice to carry on.
You'll never fall When all is said and done The only Scream is here The journey never ends - it's just begun...
The lies that never learned The needles in my heart And things will never change So everytime I scream I'm killing pain. |
Crystal (Halford/Baxter/Z)
Smell your world when you come I won't make a victim I lie awake and I'm forsaken
From all the holes in my time You saved up for this true lie The devil bides her time in waiting
And still she comes
Crystallized in paranoia Lost yourself inside her madness Beast has glazed your being With its torture
All the faults in your life This suffering can't be mine The curse will grow with what you prey for
And still she comes
She's calling I'm falling She makes me mine Still calling I'm crawling She is benign
Smell your world when you came Now I am a victim I lie awake - I swim inside you
And still she comes...
Into The Pit (Halford)
Bear witness to treason Abeyance they cower Compulsion of liars Addicted to power
Into the pit Into the pit
Conspiring for sation Malfeasance on high Obstruction of duty Disorder will rise
Into the pit Into the pit
Possession by force Reprisal to task Defenseless no longer Expulsion by mass

Nailed To The Gun (Halford)
Sig sauer. Victim of a system's non-control Devour, striking terror into every soul
Communication breakdown onto self destruction Schizophrenic people breeding hate
Pessimistic thinking from a failed connection Survival comes when we annihilate
Nailed to the gun Nailed to the gun
Paranoia, termination sickness zero's good Blind power, executing humans in cold blood
Degenerating children with an opiated bullet Poison flows from words out on the street Trapped inside the home that has become the prison Dissin' everybody that we meet
Nailed to the gun Nailed to the gun
Locked and loaded, governmental lost to anarchy Weapon goaded, magnum is gagging liberty
Cultural collision in an endless frenzy Numbing minds with threats of violence
Hopeless to the dream of any decent future Running on sheer fear and ignorance
Nailed to the gun Nailed to the gun
Slow Down (Halford/Marlette/Roy Z)
Let it be Still my anger Bring me peace From my temper
I'm trying every way I can I'm doing wrong I understand
Let it be - slow down - watch the pressure fall Bring me peace - slow down - I can't have it, I can't have it all.
Break the strain Feed my hunger Tell my mind To be stonger
I've got to move and make it real I've got to make myself a deal
Break this strain - slow down - give up what I crave Tell my mind - slow down - watch what I can, watch what I can save.
Will I rise Out of shadow Staying calm Felling hollow
I'm here to give me one more chance That choice is resting in my hands, yeah...
Let it be - slow down - watch the pressure fall Bring me peace - slow down - I can't have it, I can't have it all.
Break this strain - slow down - give up what I crave Tell my mind - slow down - watch what I can, watch what I can save.

Sun (Halford/Baxter/Z)
I, want to steer for the sun For the day has begun It's saying, it's saying
My, soul just wanted to freeze To collapse and to seize From the waiting
You, know it matters to me That I have to rage free I was longing
All that I feel is my soul I will never let go What I crave for
All of the things that you need Are the things that you bleed Here 'em calling?
And when the world becomes too much for me That's when I know that I can't stay I'm searching for my own serenity I know I have to get away
I, want to steer for the sun For the day has begun Here it calling?
It's calling...
Trail Of Tears (Halford/Riendeau/Lachman/Chlasciak /Jarzombek/Baxter/Z)
Such desperation Left you in shame This bitter harvest Bearing all the blame
Man will never end your suffering Stealing all your years God is with you but won't save you From your Trail of Tears
From this oblivion Seek dignity Just human cargo Crying to be free
Man will never end your suffering Stealing all your years God is with you but won't save you
Change it Gonna change it - change it
Greed of man has pushed you over Feeding on the fears Poverty will always prosper On your Trail of Tears
Man will never end your suffering Stealing all your years God is with you but won't save you From your Trail of Tears |
