HEATHEN LYRICS

1. Death On Two Legs

[originally by Queen]

You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you preach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You've taken all my money
And you want more
Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules
With your narrow minded cronies
Who are fools of the first division
Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart of your own
Kill joy bad guy big talking small fry
You're just an old barrow boy
Have you found a new toy to replace me?
Can you face me?
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye
Feel good are you satisfied?
Do you feel like suicide?
(I think you should)
Is your conscience all right
Does it plague you at night?
Do you feel good feel good?

You talk like a big business tycoon
You're just a hot air balloon
So no one gives you a damn
You're just an overgrown schoolboy
Let me tan your hide
A dog with disease
You're the king of the 'sleaze'
Put your money where your mouth is
Mister know-all
Was the fin on your back
Part of the deal? (Shark)
Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart (you never did) of your own
(Right from the start)
Insane you should be put inside
You're a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride
Should be made unemployed
Then make yourself null and void
Make me feel good I feel good

2. The Holy War

[originally by Thin Lizzy]

If you will adore me
Bow before me and praise my name
If you place no god before me
Then all I have is yours to claim

And if God is in the heavens
Why did God let children die
If you don't ask these questions
There is no reasons why

We are chosen
We are one
We are frightened of no one
And no one will win this war
This is the way
This is the law

All the visions shown before you
All the kingdoms and the thrones
All are yours if you bow before me and adore me
All this you can own

There are those that will go to Heaven
There are those that will never win
No one knows what will happen
There are those that turn to sin

We are chosen
We are one
We are frightened of no one
And no one will win this war
This is the way
This is the law

[Solo]

We are chosen
We are one
We are frightened of no one
And no one will win this war
This is the way
This is the law

We are chosen

The devil is in hell with the demons
This is the Holy War

They lead us to our temptation
Lead us, take our souls
There is no evil in salvation
There is evil in us all

Just as Satan tempted Jesus
And Jesus slips and falls
He is a station on The Cross now
He is dying to save us all

We are chosen
We are one
We are frightened of no one
And no one will win this war
This is the way
This is the law

We are chosen
We are one
We are frightened of no one
And no one will win this war
This is the way
This is the law

We are chosen
We are one
We are frightened of no one
And no one will win this war
This is the way
This is the law

We are chosen
We are one
We are frightened of no one
And no one will win this war
This is the way
This is the law

If God is in Heaven, won't You save me now
Oh Lord forgive them for what they've done
Lost children of Babylon
Oh Allah oh no oh no (?)

This is the Holy War

3. In Memory Of...

I'll never be the same
"never" forever our lives were changed knowing the memory of you
Nothing last forever, no never
Memories are all that remain
There's really no one to blame

We live and we die, were there's truth, there's a lie
I try to understand the reasons why we all must go
The meaning, the feeling, there is no fear to feel
But the pain will never dissapear

A thousand words cannot describe this pain, so for you
I write this song in memory of your name
So I can only say goodbye, "goodbye"
So long my friend until we meet again

We live and we die, were there's truth, there's a lie
I try to understand the reasons why we all must go
The meaning, the feeling, there is no fear to feel
But the pain will never dissapear

I'll never be the same. "forget you I will never do"
I will never be the same
In each of us is a part of you and every moment is just a fraction in time
A moment to live, a moment to die, I will never be the same

4. Hellbound

[originally by Tygers Of Pan Tang]

Ripping through the clouds at the speed of light
Gonna shoot him down if he gets in my sights

I'm hellbound, spellbound
Shot down, heading for the ground

Now I'm closing, he's got dues to pay
I've got no thoughts of pity, his end is on his way

Now he's on my tail and there's a smile on his face
Half a second later and I'm wasted in space

No, no, I'm hellbound

5. Eye Of The Storm

[originally by Sweet Savage]

The prophet said beware, the judgement draws near
The time has come to save your soul
The message it is clear
Kingdoms, mountains crumble to the ground
Forgotten cities once lost, now they are found

From the north four horsemen ride
On steeds of many colours
Conquest, power, judgement of all others
Come and see, see the sword, given on to me
The sword of fire, plague and famine
Death on to thee

Reach out with your hand
Touch me if you can
I’m running from the eye of the storm

From the sea the beast shall rise
His chains they are broken
Death to those who bear his mark
For they were not chose
Thunder, lightning strikes him to the ground
Satan lost in a lake of fie, never to be found

Reach out with your hand
Touch me if you can
I’m running from the eye of the storm

The prophet said beware, the judgement draws near
The time has come to save your soul
The message it is clear
Reach out with your hand
Touch me if you can
I’m running from the eye of the storm
Of the storm
I’m running, just got running, keep on running
I’m running from the eye of the storm
Of the storm

6. Hypnotized

Masses form into religion to fulfill their lives
Seeking answers in the bible, hear their helpless cries
Mindlessly, no thought, they follow false prophets of the flesh
Depend on the spirit of the One to grant their every wish

[Pre-Chorus:]
It's not too late to change your fate
You must control your own mind
You're the only one that can release you
It's yourself you've got to find

[Chorus:]
Fools give money to the church to earn their place with God
In our eyes it's contradiction and religious fraud
Hypnotized by what they say
Your mind is under their control
Hypnotized you will obey
Your fate will soon be called

You must make your own decision of what you think is real
Your soul was given on to you and not for these thieves to steal
Don't be fooled by these hypnotic forces, they will rob you blind
There is no excuse for their actions
Making a mockery of mankind

[Repeat Pre-Chorus & Chorus]

Masses form into religion to fulfill their lives
Seeking answers in the bible, hear their helpless cries
Don't be fooled by these hypnotic forces, they will rob you blind
There is no excuse for their actions
Making a mockery of mankind

[Repeat Pre-Chorus & Chorus]

7. Opiate Of The Masses

The future is scarred by the bloodstained past
Haunted by disgrace
Holy wars that are never ending
Forever fight of faith
Don't accuse these meaningless symbols
Created by mankind
Will they recognize their own creation?
Can they be so blind?

Fools manipulating all they see
Cruel as the world can be
Cries of pain as the tortured souls
Whither away into the dust
Power is the fix
And man is drawn to it
The illness and the lies
The virus never dies

To captivate the minds of the masses
Tell them what they want to hear
And for those who will oppose you
They will live in fear
Domination your favorite sensation
Operated by remote control
In your hands are the lives of the helpless
Their fate they'll never know

Fools manipulating all they see
Cruel as the world can be
Cries of pain as the tortured souls
Whither away into the dust

Power is the fix
And man is drawn to it
No matter the cost of what's won or lost
Addiction planted the seed
That sprouted the tree of greed
The illness and the lies
The virus never dies

Control your own destiny
Get rid of insecurity
There's little truth in what they say
Don't let 'em steal your life away

Power
To this world brings death and destruction
Leaving the earth in decay
Money
Breeds organized crime and corruption
Who says that crime doesn't pay?
Greed The green-seeking virus that spreads
And manifests your selfish needs
Spreading the addiction
Man's own contradiction
When it's themselves that they deceive

8. Timeless Cell

Prophecy's fear that the end is near
As the world takes its final stage
The hearts of many are full of disbelief
As demons fill the air
Raping the minds of the future
Bringing their faith to an end
Blocking the light of the spiritual guide
Leaving us empty again

[Chorus:]
Fire
You will see fire
As the world becomes a living hell
Taking the forces of evil for granted
And that is where you failed

Night after night, you darken the light
Filling the shadows with fear
Your thirst for the blood will be your undoing
Locked in a timeless cell

How many times must we live this life
Before we see the truth
Tempted by the fruit of deceit
Juice to replenish our youth
How can you live in such hatred?
How can you live in such fear?
Why is your conscience empty with lies
While your cup is forever filled

9. Mercy Is No Virtue

Rip the pages from the book of lies
Never will we ever fall to compromise
Now we're back to set the record straight
Fueled by anger, our pain has turned to hate

Symptoms of stagnation are coming to an end
Solitude's frustration has been our only friend
Now we must break free.

Mercy is no virtue when the mercyful is betrayed
There must be some kind of justice before it's too late

Right at you straight between the eyes
This relentless attack will be no disguise
Things have been said that just are not true
Hear what I say when I say this to you

Symptoms of stagnation are coming to an end
Solitude's frustration has been our only friend
Now we must break free.

Mercy is no virtue, that's what the merciless say
When justice is lost, the system fails, and all we do is pay

Take a look around, 'cause the band is back in town
And vengeance and revenge is what they seek
If you see them coming you better step aside
Because now they'll show no mercy
You can see it in their eyes

Because mercy is no virtue
