PRETTY MAIDS LYRICS

1. Intro

2. Serpentine

You psychic vampire
You're deceitful, sly and fake
Treacherous utilizing intentional mental rape
You drain my soul you gain
Your strength from misery
Capitalize on me in manipulative ways

Feeding on me like a leach
Parasite, you're so vain

Why don't you leave me alone?
You're stealing mu life force away
Go get a life on your own
Serpentine, I know your game

And you reflect yourself in what you see in me
You never had a heart nor your own identity
I've figured out your devious two-faced twisted mind
Give me that Judas kiss
Then stab me from behind

Sucking the soul out of me
Parasite, stay away

Who are you

3. Firesoul Fly

Don't let no one steal your thunder
Tear your hopes and dreams asunder
You got one shot, don't compromise
Just heed the call

The driving force that steers your vision
A burning heart and wild ambitions
You go all in or you just don't go in at all

Firesoul fly
Go for the taking
Firesoul fly
It's a wide open stage
Firesoul fly
The whole wide world awaits for you

Sky's the limit to your illusions
Orchestrate and shape your future
You got the key to change the course of history
Think big, be open-minded

Believe in magic or you won't find it
Make your mark and be the change that you wish to see

Firesoul fly
Go for the taking
Firesoul fly
It's a wide open stage
Firesoul fly
The whole wide world awaits for you
Firesoul fly
Get on your wings
Firesoul fly
And ride like a king
Firesoul fly
And you can do whatever you wanna do
You see it's all that you did, not what you tried to do
That makes the difference
Carry the torch, go be the first in line

4. Undress Your Madness

I've made peace with myself
And I've exposed the inner me
I played the joker, played the fool
Renounced to innocence
The black sheep of the family
I broke all codes of moral rules

I've been out where no sense is making sense
I've been through hell and back again
Defying all laws of decency

Undress your madness
Strip down, let your little devils be untied
Undress your madness
Strip down, loosen up and show us who's inside

And I did everything that I was not supposed to do
Been so messed up, so out of line
I stumbled, lost my grip
I fell and slipped my whole life through
But never skipped a chance to shine

I've been crossing the boundaries undefined
Nor sane nor rational in life
I've been trippin' the wires right down the line

Undress your madness
Strip down, let your little devils be untied
Undress your madness
Strip down, loosen up and show us who's inside
Undress your madness
Strip down, raise some hell, don't ever give a damn
Undress your madness
Don't cover up the child inside the man

5. Will You Still Kiss Me (If I See You in Heaven)

I see life fading from your eyes
And darkness closing in
Still you're giving me a smile
I know you hardly recognize
You're losing it again
Let me hug you for a while

You're slipping through my hands
Hard to face and understand
A different cloud, another world

Will you still kiss me if I see you in Heaven?
Do you still miss me out there on the other side?
Will you still bless me with your love and affection?
Will you reach out for me and lead me through the light?

You disappear into yourself
I sense that you're still here
And yet so far away
The silent truth, a final breath
I'm left with frozen tears
And your image never fades

In everything I do
I still sense the ghost of you
You'll stay forever in this heart

And now the world don't seem the same
All is gone and all has changed
And this pain won't go away

6. Runaway World

It's getting crazy, it's hard to hold on
You gotta keep the pace
If you get too late, you're outrun
Our destiny is frail, living the dream
Tripping the virtual life, gonna jump the ride to be seen

An intransperant challenge
Delicate balance, trying to keep in the line

You're gotta roll with the punches
Gonna stick to your guns
Or you're gonna get hurt in a runaway world
Stay by the track or the train will pass you by

It's pre-decided, time won't await
We are just visitors here
While the reaper sharpens his blade
Our lives are changing lanes, the future looks pale
Some of us bound to win
While your best friend's lost down the trail

Gonna stay on the course or you'll stumble and fall in between
You're gonna roll with the punches
Gonna stick to your guns
Or you're gonna get hurt in a runaway world
Stay by the track or the train will pass you by
Between a rock and a hard place
You're caught in a rat race
It's a bless and a curse in a runaway world
You gotta fight to be heard and fight to be recognized

7. If You Want Peace (Prepare for War)

Is this the last day of our house?
The dogs of war are coming out
Thrive on profit, blood and oil
Sacrifice on foreign soil you know
Heartless tactics, methods cruel
Blood and fire is the fuel to decline

If you want peace prepare for war
Face the truth and hit the floor
You'll see history repeat itself
The guns are drawn and shields are raised
When common sense has gone to waste
It's seen before, we know it all too well

And so the endgame's drawing near
We see the world dissolve in wrath and fear
Vulture culture, barefaced lies
We demolish, pulverize with intent
Cynicism dead and blown
Shattered lives in killing zones again

And as I watch the graveyard generation slide
Stumbling like walking dead, all devoid of life

If you want peace prepare for war
Face the truth and hit the floor
You'll see history repeat itself
The guns are drawn and shields are raised
When common sense has gone to waste
It's seen before, we know it all too well
Nothing's sacred, all astray
Ride a world we cannot save
Bombs away and blow it all to hell

8. Slavedriver

Suppressed by hate and subdivision
Tangled up in chains
You judged me by the color of my skin
And in your power pose position
You enslaved and controlled me
Like a puppet on a string

Under your white supremacy
You stole away my dignity
I've got the scars that proves the past
But yet another hundred lashes
From your whip would ever crush
I'll come out free at lest

Never bow, won't obey
One day our flag will fly again
Now you'll know, now you'll see
We shall arise

Slavedriver
Your time is gonna come
Slavedriver
You know you cannot run
Slavedriver
The score ain't settled yet
We'll never forget

Now you're the hunted
I'm the hunter and my hate will be the bullet

That will penetrate your heart
And just like the predator and prey
I'm calling out for you to play

I'll tear your world apart
Never bow
Feels like the pain of a thousand years
Marked from within, forever stigmatized
So much disdain is implemented
Blood will have blood, an eye for an eye

Never bow

Slavedriver
We wanna see you kneel
Slavedriver
To suffer and to feel
Slavedriver
Wanna see you bleed

9. Shadowlands

Together alone in this broken home
Gazing at your empty stare
Feelings on hold, no emotions unfold
Is it love beyond repair?

Now all we have is distant memories
But let me tell you mean more to me
Than I let you see

Let's move on, leave it all behind us
It ain't too late, too late
We don't have to cut the ties that bind us
Ain't it true babe, true babe
Take my hand, let's get out of this shadowland

Wounded years, still we're deadlocked here
Trying to find our way back in
Distressed and divided
We're like buried alive
With a love that just won't mend
Trying to find the path that leads back to you
Have I passed the chance? Am I long overdue?
Long overdue

I saw my world in your eyes
Never thought it would end, oh no
Thought we'd eternally fly and never land

Let's move on, leave it all behind us
It ain't too late, too late
We don't have to cut the ties that bind us
Ain't it true babe, true babe

Let's make up and break the walls between us
It ain't too late, too late
Bury the hatchet and our misdemeanors
It ain't too late to leave these shadowlands

10. Black Thunder

Out on the dusty roads, that's where I roam
That's where my heart is
That's where I'm feeling at home

It was all in the cards, what I'm destined to

You wanna rock my call of duty and I'll do it for you
Wanna roll, I'm like a steam train hammering through

Can you feel it
Raging like a storm wind?
Black thunder
Now is real
Riding like lightning
Black thunder
And the louder the roar, the more I'm alive
Like a rocket getting ready to fly
Black thunder

Fire up the engine, crank it to 10, kick it down
Let's shake the heavens
Now there's a circus in town
Well, it's in my blood and I'm calling the shots

I'll be shooting like a fireball
Straight in your face
I'm a hot wired maniac and I got the ace

Better get ready for

You know once you've checked in you will never check out

11. Strength of a Rose

Precious child
Sweet innocence
You're beautiful
Significant
Reach out and kiss the day
Just dream away

Angel heart
Juvenile
Little star
Shine a light
Purify and blow away
The cloudy sights

Look at all the craziness around
Embrace yourself, go and be your entire

'Cause you are gold, your beauty lies within
Grace will shine again, girl, you got it
Strength of a rose, sparkling from inside
Let your love grow wild, girl, you got it
Strength of a rose

Beautiful soul, you're magical
You're the hope in a fragile world
A higher truth, and we believe in you

And I can see the love light in your eyes
Only true love can save us and heal

Be the light that we can't see
Give us faith in destiny
And be reborn with the love you bring

'Cause you are gold, your beauty lies within
Grace will shine again, girl, you got it
Strength of a rose, sparkling from inside
Let your love grow wild, girl, you got it
Strength of a rose

We need love
To resurrect our faith
Encourage and engage
Girl, you've got it
The strength of a rose
To shield us from the pain
The spark to light the flame
Girl, you got it
The strength of a rose
