IMPELLITTERI LYRICS

1. Hypocrisy

Welcome to the new world, where I am god and king
Master of the humans, my puppets on a string
Lead with my deceptions, my lies and fantasy
Wicked is my nature, the evil you can't see

The thrill of your life, is it not enough for you?
Sell me your soul, I'll see what I can do
Blind lead the blind, as far as I can see
Obey my words, but it’s all hypocrisy

Beautiful the angel, who likes to have it all
Cast down from the heavens, the rising of the dawn
Bringer of deception, the bright and morning star
Lucifer they call me, the prince of all that's dark

The thrill of your life, is it not enough for you?
Sell me your soul, I'll see what I can do
Blind lead the blind, as far as I can see
Obey my words, but it’s all hypocrisy

Welcome to the New World, I’ll give you everything
Flourish in a prison, that you will never see
Keeping you distracted, I feed on apathy
Running with the devil, I’ll give you what you need

The thrill of your life, is it not enough for you?
Sell me your soul, I'll see what I can do
Blind lead the blind, as far as I can see
Obey my words, but it’s all hypocrisy

2. Masquerade

I been standing tall out in Hollywood
With my star on the boulevard
I can do no wrong, I'm irresistible
This face is gonna take me far

But you don't know me
Cuz I’m your superstar
You can’t see me, not the real me

My persona living on the silver screen
Got my Oscar and my Golden Globe
But there's a dark side creeping deep inside of me
And I'm never gonna let it show

Masquerade, cuz you can never know the real me
Masquerade, and you will never see the real me
Masquerade, masquerade

You don't know me
I'm your superstar
You can't see me, not the real me

Yea, I'm your superstar
I been standing tall out in Hollywood
Just like Kevin, Bill and Harvey do
I can do no wrong, I'm irresistible
Got the power to keep it quiet too

Masquerade, cuz you can never really know me
Masquerade, and you will never see the real me
Masquerade, cuz you can never know the real me
Masquerade, and you will never see the real me

3. Run For Your Life

The finger's on the trigger
The talks are breaking down
Verbal threats and tension
And no one's standing down

Run for your life, can't you see the sky is falling?
Are you ready to fight?

Nuclear ambitions
Call it war or peace
Everyone’s addicted
To the power of the beast

Run for your life, breaking down negotiations
Leading to the confrontation
Ooh, it's the nature of the Beast

Nation against nation
The cycle of insane
Hysteria and chaos
There’s no one left to blame

Run for your life,
Can’t you see the sky is falling?
Don’t you know the night is coming?
Breaking down negotiations
Leading to the confrontation

4. Phantom Of The Opera

[originally by Andrew Lloyd Webber]

In sleep he sang to me in dreams he came
That voice which calls to me and speaks my name
And do I dream again? For now I find
The phantom of the opera is there, inside my mind

Sing once again with me, our strange duet
Your power over me, grows stronger yet
And though I turn from you, to glance behind
The phantom of the opera is there, inside my mind

Those who have seen your face, draw back in fear
I am the mask you wear, it’s me they hear
Your spirit and my voice in one combined
The phantom of the opera is there, in my mind

In all your fantasies, you always knew
That man and mystery were both in you
And in this labyrinth, where night is blind
The phantom of the opera is there, inside my mind

There the phantom of the opera
Sing for me, sing forever!

5. Gates Of Hell

Falling from the sky the warhead burns
Destruction on the way
Triggering the last seduction
When there's nothing left to save

Enter into the Gates of Hell
As the leaders plot their mission
It’s the war that will end all wars
When the eagle starts to fly
Gazing into the crystal ball
You can see the clock is ticking
And the end of the world will come
As you open up the Gates of Hell

Chaos and despair are hovering
In clouds above your head
Revelation times are manifest
When evil’s all you're fed

Enter into the Gates of Hell
As the leaders plot their mission
It’s the war that will end all wars
When the eagle starts to fly
Gazing into the crystal ball
You can see the clock is ticking
And the end of the world will come
As you open up the Gates of Hell

6. Wonder World

There's a new world order coming
There’s nothing you can do
Everything about you
Is monitored and viewed

Bio metric scan
Through the brain, on the hand
Scanning through your eyes, tracking you down

Come on! There's a new world coming!

Society now cashless
Control what you buy and sell
Commerce on your cell phone
The code will serve you well

Bio metric scan
Through the brain, on the hand
Scanning through your eyes, tracking you down

Wonderworld, computers taking over for you
Wonderworld, intelligence controller
Wonderworld, artificial mindset patrol
Wonderworld, dependence on the virtual machine

Wonderworld, computers taking over for you
Wonderworld, intelligence controller
Wonderworld, artificial mindset patrol
Wonderworld, dependence on the virtual machine

7. Man Of War

Children of the brave, military grade, raised up to become a warrior
Father flew the flag, courage is the badge, living for the glory and honor

I'm alive, when I'm keeping the faith
I'm alive, when I'm serving my brothers
I'll keep fighting the fight, and lay down my life

Man of War
Fight for your country, fight for your people
Soldier of conscience, your life for the nation

Lion heart and soul, spirit of the bold, courage is your middle name
Fearless on the front, valor when it counts, hero of the modern age

I'm alive, when I'm keeping the faith
I'm alive, when I'm serving my brothers
I’ll keep fighting the fight, and lay down my life

Man of War
Fight for your country, fight for your people
Soldier of conscience, you are the man of war
You’ll die for your people
Fight for the nation, fight for your country
When I’m heavy under fire, you're the fearless one
I want you by my side

I'm alive, when I'm keeping the faith
I’m alive, when I’m serving my brothers
I'll keep fighting the fight, and lay down my life

Man of War
Fight for your country, fight for your people
Soldier of conscience, your life for the nation
Fight for your country, fight for your people
Soldier of conscience, you lay down your life
Man of War

8. Symptom Of The Universe

[originally by Black Sabbath]

Take me through the centuries to supersonic years
Electrifying enemy is drowning in his tears
All I have to give you is a love that never dies
The symptom of the universe is written in your eyes

Yeah

Mother moon she's calling me back to her silver womb
Father of creation takes me from my stolen tomb
Seventh night the unicorn is waiting in the skies
A symptom of the universe, a love that never dies

Yeah

Take my hand, my child of love come step inside my tears
Swim the magic ocean I've been crying all these years
When our love will ride away into eternal skies
A symptom of the universe, a love that never dies

9. Do You Think I’M Mad

I hear voices in my mind
Telling me I'm Frankenstein
There’s two natures deep inside of me!

I am Jekyll, I am Hyde
Evil must be satisfied
But the world must never see the monster!

I am Doctor I am good
Thought the creature understood
But the devil lurks inside the mind

Now the slayer's in the streets
Killing everything it sees
Can this demon really be me?

Do you think I'm mad?

In my lab the seed was sown
Can inner self be left alone
Or will a stronger urge prevail in me?

My evil potion turns it on
The savage beast that comes along
Taking over what is good inside

Do you think I'm mad?

“As the metamorphosis transpires, the good Dr. Jekyll transforms into Mr. Hyde
And as the potion begins its feast, Dr. Jekyll is lost to the nature of the beast”

I can’t hide it anymore
The monsters waiting at the door
I must stop the killing spree, but how?

Now is time to intercede
I am tortured by misdeeds
Mr. Hyde must be destroyed, please!

Do you think I’m mad?

A man cannot destroy the savage in him by denying its impulses
Think what it would mean to yield to every evil impulse, yet leave the soul untouched…

10. Fire It Up

In your eyes a fire is burning
A crucible inside
You been down this road before now
You won't be denied

Standing up to fight the battle
It’s always on your mind
Mental vision makes it happen
You've got to hold the line

Fire it up!
You been striving so long, living for the dream
Fire it up
You been pushing so far, to drive you past the pain
Fire it up
Relentless heart will guide you, to a further place
Fire it up
Now's your time for glory, your power wins the race

You've been fighting now for so long
You've been grinding hard
You've been stepping up for your self
Reaching for the crown

Fire it up!
You been striving so long, living for the dream
Fire it up
You been pushing so far, to drive you past the pain
Fire it up
Relentless heart will guide you, to a further place
Fire it up
Now's your time for glory, your power wins the race

11. Kill The Beast

I see the world hanging on the edge
Slipping closer to the endless void
Every day they draw you in
Those dark spirits from the netherworld
The moon is rising in the midnight hour
That’s when evil strikes with all its power

Come to me and I'll set your spirit free
When the darkness surrounds you
Close at hand, when the demons call your name
Face your fear - kill the beast!

You start to shiver and you can't resist
You're just a mortal and you want to live
Imaginations got you terrorized
The hounds of hell have got you paralyzed

Come to me and I'll set your spirit free
When the darkness surrounds you
Close at hand, when the demons call your name
Face your fear - kill the beast!

In the end it is you, follow shadows that lead the way
In the dark it is you, step away from the ghoulish grave
I can hear that you’re crying, and I know you're afraid
But a new day is dawning, and the sun will soon rise again

Face your fear, kill the beast!

12. Shine On

Don't you fear what's coming, don't be running away
Stand and face your rival, it's time for you to be brave

Shine On
Don't you know that you can never he defeated
Shine On
Don't you know that you should never be afraid

Every day's a battle, sometimes you want to give up
But the world just keeps on turning, and now you're rising above

Shine On
Don’t you know that you can never be defeated
Shine On
Don’t you know that you should never be afraid
Shine On
Can't you see there's power in the heart of freedom
Shine On
Can't you see there's justice in the hand of fate

Shine On
Don't you know that you can never be defeated
Shine On
Don’t you know that you should never be afraid
Shine On
Can’t you see there’s power in the heart of freedom
Shine On
Can't you see there's justice in the hand of fate
