IMPELLITTERI LYRICS

1. The Writings On The Wall

I could never be a slave
To this hypocrisy
I would never stand in line
To bow at your feet
I will always fight your system
To my dieing end
I would tread through melted glass
Just to watch you pay for your sins

We all run in circles
But no one finds their way
We wander through darkness
Living in shame
Too busy staring
To notice the writings on the wall
Now I am certain
You've set yourself up for the fall

Tell me of your darkest fear
And set your mind at ease
When your world comes crashing down
It drops you to your knees
Can you live through life alone
With no one by your side
Would you feel as though your safe
If you had no place to hide

We all run in circles
But no one finds their way
We wander through darkness
Living in shame
Too busy staring
To notice the writings on the wall
Now I am certain
You've set yourself up for the fall

We all run in circles
But no one finds their way
We wander through darkness
Living in shame
Too busy staring
To notice the writings on the wall
Now I am certain
You've set yourself up for the fall
We all run in circles
And no one sees the writings on the wall
Now I am certain
You've set yourself up

2. Crushing Daze

The world is closing up again
My mind can't break until it bends
Distorted thoughts to fuel my rage
Paralyzed by crushing fear
A host of voices in my ear
Let's me back inside my cage
Lock him up

Here take this pill and change the world
A new prescription you can't buy it in the store
So take this pill and feel no strife
It makes the stars align brings meaning to your life

BREAK

All this nonsense is killing me
All this nonsense is killing me
All this nonsense is killing me
In these crushing days

Inflammation in my brain
Enough to drive a man insane
A gulf of eyes to stare at me
My cage unlocked but I'm not free
A cast of demons haunting me
They say a new drug's all I need

Here take this pill and change the world
A new prescription you can't buy it in the store
So take this pill and feel no strife
It makes the stars align brings meaning to your life

MOVE

Crush... Anxiety
Crush... Anxiety
Crushing Daze

STOP

3. Destruction

Feels like we're losing ground
With every step we take
Why must we live in so much horror
There's not much time left
Before we slip away
And we don't have the time to borrow

A new day arrives
Another page in history slips away
But no one seems the wiser
Haven't we learned
War is not the way to save mankind
It only breeds destruction
Destruction... no one sees
Destruction

I can't make out that image
Lurking in the shadows
Looks like someone has lost their way
Billions spent on the bomb
While children end up starving
Could this be the only way

A new day arrives
Another page in history slips away
But no one seems the wiser
Haven't we learned
War is not the way to save mankind
It only breeds

[Solo]

A new day arrives
Another page in history slips away
But no one sees
Destruction... no one sees
Destruction... no one sees
Destruction... no one sees
Destruction... no one sees

4. Dance With The Devil

Welcome
Welcome to the gates of hell
Tell me did you dance with the devil
Or did you just sell your soul
Come children
Come to the darkside
And welcome to hell

I hear that Satan's calling
For this world to end
He marches on with his masquerade
Taking God's good men
All the kings, the presidents
Sold their soul for greed
Now the world burns
For all of eternity
In his hell

If you dance with the devil
Hell is the price you must pay
If you dance with the devil

On the streets of Paris France
London and L.A.
The devils men are tempting you
With money and his fame
With the money and the fame
Superstars, the money and cars
Girls and sex machines
Made the world turn
For all of eternity
In his hell

If you dance with the devil
Hell is the price you must pay
Burns your face to the concrete
You'll become obsolete
Demons come without warning
And you're just a moth to the flame
There's no chance for redemption

[Solo]

The world has fallen into a trance
Do we even stand a chance

If you dance with the devil
Hell is the price you must pay
Burns your face to the concrete
You'll become obsolete
Demons come without warning
And you're just a moth to the flame
There's no chance for redemption
Here lies the obsolete
If you dance with the devil
The image you slay is yourself
Burns your fist to the concrete

5. Hurricane

Your sit with your eyes shut
On the edge of your seat
Nervously waiting
So pathetic and weak
Adrenaline runs through your veins
Fear slowly sets in
The bell in the black tower rings
The showdown's about to begin

They call me the freight train
Cause I'm the master of pain, pain, pain
With a fist full of lightning
I'm gonna put you in your grave
Run a way
I am the path of destruction
And yes the master of pain... Hurricane
With a fist full of lightning
I am the hurricane... let's dance

So you wanna take your chance with me
Skin that smoke stack
And let the whole world see
Ain't got time for your despair
Cross that line
You've got guts boy I'll give you that

[Solo]

I am the freight train
And I'm the master of pain, pain, pain
With a fist full of lightning
I'm gonna put you in you grave
Run a way
I am the path of destruction
And yes the master of pain... Hurricane
With a fist full of lightning
I am the hurricane... Hurricane
I am the I am the freight train
And I'm the master of pain
With a fist full of lightning
I am the hurricane... Hurricane
I am the hurricane
I am the hurricane

6. Judgement Day

Can't you hear the message
From deep beyond the grave
The cost of war is bloody insane
Dying soldier wounded
Gunshot to the head
Just an innocent man
And now he is dead

God will come again some day
And the wicked man will hang
On judgement day

Don't fear the devil
Cause pharoahs go to hell
You live your life under a spell
Blind men see your evil
Rich men love the gore
The judgement day evens the score

God will come again some day
And the wicked man will hang
On judgement day

[Solo]

The dying soldiers
And wounded men
Loss of innocence
Spreads the land
White house president
And all his men
Couldn't stop the end

Don't fear the devil
Cause presidents go to hell
Sold your soul to Satan
And with him you'll dwell
Blind men saw your evil
And rich men loved the gore
Judgement day is coming
And presidents
You're going straight to hell

7. The Iceman Cometh

Run for your lives
Run

How do you like it when they say
You're nothing but a punk
Make fun of the clothes you wear
Treat you like your scum
Beat you down and crushed your pride
Laughing at your pain
Called you fat and pulled your hair
But they're all gonna pay

Parents don't know teachers don't care
When they're laughing in your face
Scars that won't heal memories won't die
Until they're all in their place
The Iceman cometh
Run for your lives
The Iceman cometh
Run for your lives

Morbid thoughts to fill my brain
Dark anxiety
Voices whisper am I sane
And red is all I see
Planning out your darkest fate
Faces in the mud
Time has come there'll be no wait
Makes them pay with blood

Knock knock remember me
The kid you cornered, punched and teased
Blackened eyes, broken nose
Now's your turn
Here's a fucking black rose

[Solo]

Parents don't know teachers don't care
When they're laughing in your face
Scars that won't heal memories won't die
Until they're all in their place
Nobody knows nobody cares
When they're spitting in your face

Scars that won't heal memories won't die
Till you put them in their place
The Iceman cometh
Run for your lives
The Iceman cometh
Run for your lives
The Iceman cometh
You better run for your lives
The Iceman cometh
Run for your lives

9. Propoganda Mind

Fat cat in a suit
A fist full of loot
Making claims we don't understand
Got the money, the power
Took a greenback shower
Broke your law cause your more than a man
You're tax exempt a D.C. pimp
Another whore for the man of the hill
We choke on your lies
You've got thin alibies
And that smirk on your face makes us ill

I won't believe anything I see
Million dollar tan
Pearly whites and a price is right smile
Your talk equals shit and it's really unfit
But your twisted tongue stretches a mile
So quick to condemn while you get every whim
And send us to our very own grave
So speak up talk to me
You own every TV but I won't be your personal slave

I won't believe everything I see
I know in my mind what's wrong and what's right
I'm not your thing your puppet on a string
And I won't spread your lies or feed
You're propoganda mind
Propoganda mind
Propoganda mind
Propoganda mind

[Solo]

So don't believe everything you see
I know in my mind what's wrong and what's right
I'm not your thing your puppet on a string
And I won't spread your lies or feed

Their propoganda mind
Propoganda mind
Propoganda mind
Propoganda mind
Propoganda mind
Propoganda mind
Propoganda mind

10. Stay Tonight

I know we're leading separate lives
Sometimes we don't see eye to eye
What's the point of being lonely
We just might make it if we try

So stay tonight
You won't regret it
I don't wanna wait until tomorrow
And let love pass us by
So stay tonight
If you can feel it
Because if we wait until the morning
Then love might pass us by

If you just give yourself a chance
You just might find life's sweet romance
What's the point in being lonely
There is no reason we shouldn't try

So stay tonight
You won't regret it
I don't wanna wait until tomorrow
And let love pass us by
So stay tonight
If you can feel it
Because if we wait until the morning
Then love might pass us by

Don't let love pass you by
We could make it if we try

[Solo]

So stay tonight
You won't regret it
I don't wanna wait until tomorrow
And let love pass us by
So stay tonight
If you can feel it
Because if we wait until the morning
Then love might pass us by

So stay tonight
Stay tonight

11. The Fall Of Titus

Ruled by wrath and cries of pain
Beware the words I speak
A name not uttered for 10,000 years
Titus' great city walls
Built by stone and chains
Enslaved the world with agony and fear

The Kingdom of Titus
Will crumble to the ground
The beast descends
We'll leave the past behind us
No time to make amends

Malachi the highest priest
With sand inside his vial
To offer to their gods of brazen iron
Blood of martyrs mingled
With screams of the oppressed
The offering brings a vengeance forged with fire

The Kingdom of Titus
Will crumble to the ground
The beast descends
We'll leave the past behind us
No time to make amends

Time no more for he is calling

As I stood upon the sea and beheld
Titus the mighty has fallen!!!

[Solo]

The Kingdom of Titus
Will crumble to the ground
Evil descends
Blasphemy has fallen
No mercy for their sins
Go make your mends
The Kingdom of Titus
Has fallen to the ground

Titus the Great no more
