For this I was chosen because I fear nothing
With confidence I tread through the dead of the night Off to another war torn, far away battlefield Wherein lies a daemonic enemy horde On this day I decide to anoint my fists Engaging them in the mode of power and war Stopping at nothing that's short of fulfilling my destiny Willing to die and I will, after you for what I believe [Solo - Chris] A desperate avenger striking fear in their hearts Invading their dreams before the day even starts [Solo - Dave] Whet whit your blood, I sharpen my sword No turning the other cheek like a coward Come tomorrow I may lay down and die But not this day Sent on an unholy quest, to reduce all those who resist To the size of their shriveled up souls and scatter them like grist I vanquished the strangeholds that the netherworld sets for me The last request of my life is to die killing my enemies [Solo - Chris] Bathed in blood up to the horses' bridle Its death to retreat, there's no chance of survival [Solo - Dave] Whet whit your blood, I sharpen my sword No turning the other cheek like a coward Come tomorrow I may lay down and die But not this day, this day we fight! This day we fight! Strip the fallen heroes, finish off the wounded Collect the spoils of war and send them back dead [Solo - Dave] [Solo - Chris] [Solo - Dave] This day we fight! This day I fight! |

It was a cool winter's morning
Somewhere shortly past 9:00 AM The armored car they wanted to heist wasn't coming So instead they went for the bank The fateful duo that sat in the get-away car Heavily sedated with thousands of round Armor piercing, fully automatic weapons The bowls of wrath poured out on the ground [Chorus:] Baptized in a firefight Hot blood running cold as ice 44 minutes of target practice All hell's breaking loose Outgunned, watching "The Force" come to a firefight with a pocketknife Getting schooled until they shot Achilles' heel And brought down the beast!!! [Solo - Chris] This was an accident waiting to happen It wasn't if it would happen, it was when The city's people sabotaged themselves Calling their firepower an unneeded expense The two most violent men it seemed couldn't be stopped Standard police issue guns were just not enough But SWAT arrived to settled the fight Between AK-47 and AR-15 [Chorus] [Solo - Chris] [Solo - Dave] [Solo - Chris] [Chorus] [Solo - Chris] |

Grinding my teeth, with knuckles grasp at the wheel
I rush from an avalanche of adrenaline, it's all that I feel As quick as a bolt of lightning, a rocket ride in a bucket seat It doesn't get any better than this, it just feeds my need for speed [Chorus:] Supercharged, strapped in and screaming Fire spiting from the pipes A burnout by the flame throwing fury 8,000 horses ignite Full throttle, hit the ground running With a tank full of nitro And its 1,320' to go to the finish line [Solo - Chris] My hands hold tight, a fire breathing stampede I fall into a trance, hold my breath till the light turns green In a cloud of nitro methane, melting rubber, I say my prayers Man and machine accelerate and I vanish in thin air [Chorus] [Solo - Dave, Chris, Dave, Chris, Dave, Chris] |

They ball-gagged Lady Justice
And blindfolded her so she can't see The erosion of the people's trust Of what will come to be an FDIC Assisted Suicide The depression of a depression Worldwide suicide for the economy Caused by the dialectic chaos when the Mob on Wall Street took "We the People" for a ride When its dog eat dog, you are what you eat Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds Like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds [Solo - Chris] They took everything and anything As long as it once belonged to me The rats got all the money; the roaches Licked the cupboards clean of TV dinners and beer This never-ending nightmare Of the dreams I'll never, ever get to see And just one silver-bullet to your head It will set me free from all the life I wasted trusting you When it's dog eat dog, you are what you eat Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds Like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds When it's dog eat dog, you are what you eat Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds Just like the mad dog that bites the hand that feeds [Solo - Chris] |

This thing called "Life" goes by so quickly
On day you're here and then you're gone This is the moment I've lived my whole life for And I'll never give up; I've waited too long I've waited, waited too long, I've waited too long And all along the road, all the bodies left behind May all have been good friends; just not good friends of mine I've been kicked out and said I quit Then I said, "I had enough" and "This is it" All I wanted was just one more show for the road Cause it was over last time before I could blink, I could blink I've waited, waited too long, I've waited too long [Chorus] Their bodies left behind [Solo - Dave] [Solo - Chris] |

Attention! Attention!
All citizens are ordered to report to their District detention centers! Do not return to your homes; Do not contact anyone! Do not use any cellular or GPS devices! Surrender all weapons at once! Attention! This way to the camps! I woke up in a black FEMA box Darkness was all around me, in my coffin My dreams are all nightmares anymore And this is what I dream every night The Leader of the New World Order, the President of the United States Has declared anyone now residing inside the US of A Without the RFID chip, you're just an illegal alien An enemy combatant of America, welcome to the New World Order This is the end of the road; this is the end of the line This is the end of your life; this is the... A society in a society, inside the fence life as you know it stops They got their rules of conduct and we got ours Be quick or be dead, you crumble up and die, the clock is Ticking so slowly and so much can happen in an hour [Solo - Chris] This is the end of the road; this is the end of the line This is the end of your life; this is the Endgame I learned my lessons the hard way, every scar I earned I had to bleed, inside the day yard A system of controlled movement, like a giant ant farm Any time is long time, now you're not in charge of your time anymore [Solo - Chris] This is the end of the road; this is the end of the line This is the end of your life; this is the end [Solo - Chris] The Ex-President signed a secret bill that can Land a legal US Citizen in jail and the Patriot act stripped away our constitutional rights They say a Concentration camp just popped up, yeah, right! [Solo - Dave] Refuse the chip? Ha! Get persecute and beat by the Tyranny of Mind control, for the mark of the beast All rights removed, you're punished captured, and enslaved Believe me when I say, "This IS the Endgame!"

Such a pretty face, radiant
I saw you, across the room I knew I had to have you Thus started the chase I knew I would do anything to take Your hand and make you mine But I learned long ago If you love someone you have to let it go The hardest part of letting go Is saying goodbye Goodbye, goodbye [Sealed With A Kiss] Fettered away in a makeshift cell Beneath the venomous moonlight I unleash my plan to watch you fail The one I held so high Go to sleep my love Taste my sweet revenge on your lips Its sealed with a kiss [Solo - Chris] I return to the masquerade ball And leave the long figure weeping Stone by stone, immured in the wall Forever left in safekeeping Go to sleep my love Taste my sweet revenge on your lips Its sealed with a kiss [The Hardest Part Of Letting Go... (Continued)] But I learned long ago If you love someone you have to let it go Let it go, let it go The hardest part of letting go Is saying goodbye Goodbye, goodbye |

[Solo - Dave]
It's time to take your last walk in this world before your journey begins underground. Not before we torment you from your cell straight to hell with a short detour in-between. Begging for mercy all alone, unable to handle the pressure. Before his mortification! Now let the torture begin! Death by the head crusher Head crusher! Death by the head crusher! The horrific torture device for those who fail interrogation, The most painful technique ever known, People thirst for the worst, the skulls disintegration. Beaten, broken, in bloody rags Adding insult to injury, he recants But it's much too late. Now let the torture begin! Death by the head crusher Head crusher! Death by the head crusher! On your knees, prisoner, take your position Place your chin forward into the restraint Your head slowly caves in from the compression You fade in a blackout from the infernal pain Twisting, turning the giant screw Your teeth are breaking loose Crushed and splintering into your mouth Winding down, cutting through Like broken glass being chewed The fragmented skull and shattering bones There's nothing you can do. [Solo - Chris Broderick] |

Far off on the horizon you can barely see their torches
But rest assured they're out there and they're coming If you listen, the sound is growing nearer of infantry Marching out a hypnotizing rhythm Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends Above the ring of clashing steel, they raise flags of war A sign to all the warriors who cannot hear Amidst smoke of cannonballs, they bang the drums of death Pound a cadence out for those who cannot see Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends Poison the wells and scorch the earth, everything slashed and burnt You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends [Acoustic Solo - Dave] [Solo - Chris] Destroying every town, light it up and burn it down You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends Poison the wells and scorch the earth, everything slashed and burnt You may not like it now, but this is how the story ends |

I barely get to the graveyard shift on time
After pulling another grueling nine to five I live from credit card to check The paper money'swhirling by And I hardly just, just barely, only just survive I'm living on the edge, reality is teetering, my mind is on the brink How will I face the day tomorrow if I can't make it through today? I got nothing left to lose, but my sanity and the right to go insane I got nothing left to lose, but my mind I got nothing left to choose, so I think I'll go insane My stomach aches from insufficient funds My cheeks are gaunt, my guts are overdrawn My head pounds, starvation's given me the shakes Too much squalor, too much pressure, and now I'm getting pissed I'm living on the edge, reality is teetering, my mind is on the brink Chorus [Solo - Chris] [Solo - Dave] |
