THE BRONX CASKET CO. LYRICS

1. Who Lives Forever

Why do we ever end
Why can't death ever be a friend
I'll be there when the lights go out
I'll be there when
There's understanding
Disbelief and horror
That this is all there is

Life should be an endless road
Full of hope and no horizons anywhere
I could live that way
We could march to a different sound
And have a chance to share
The sould we found
I could live that way

But who wants to live
Forever and ever
I think I would my friend
I'd like to be here until the very end
Christ never really died
So why should I
Who wants to live forever

Time chases after me
Time pulls me down
A corpse I'll never be
Won't be in line at the pearly gates
Won't share my sould with Joe and Mary
Peter, Paul, and Matthew
Will all just have to wait

No tears for those left behind
Because we'd never have to leave
Each other's side
I could live that way
Maybe then we all would know
That Sunday's thoughts and
Prayers were just for show
I could live that way

Wake me when it's over
And all the pain is gone
Welcome to my, my new kingdome come
Wake me when it's over
I'll be waiting here
Life just can't be, can't be lived in fear
You can't live in fear
You can't live in fear
No

2. Change The World

They start by poisoning your mind
They film you kill yourself
And then they watch you die
I need to know what I keep fighting for
I need to know what I keep looking for

I can't change the world
This world of hate
This world we live in
But if I had the chance
To make everything right
I'd make everything right
For you

Let's take a simple twist of fate
Put it on a pedestal
It's now a crime of hate
If we can talk about this long enough
We'll have your mind
Before the sun comes up

You're the reason things just can't get done
And you're the reason simplicity is gone
A media Jesus they follow to the end
Now I know
Yes I know

Die for me

3. Mercy Ltd.

We all need a place where pain can go
A secret little place where hate can grow
Where laughter is torture
And smiles are misery
You'll answer directly to me
At Mercy LTD.

Punishment is required reading
And every claim is always filled for free
Low fee leveling of the masses
Trophy heads and souvenirs
Won't be an extra fee

Let's use his eyes to cool my drink
His leg a 7 wood
I'd use his wife to fertilize my garden
If I could

The song remains the same
At Mercy LTD.
Every day is the same
At Mercy LTD.

Built in who knows when by Mr. Cyphre
Revenge our call to arms
Our family creed
Payback is a virtue
It's renowned here
In blood we fill our registers
Satisfaction guaranteed

Let's poke a thumbhole in his skull
And roll the 7-10
His spleen goes well with a light bordeaux
I think I'll share it with a friend

4. No Miracles

Climb on
Climb on to your throne
Worthless
Worthless piece of stone
Save us
Save us from our own

I feel the time slip away
I hear it call
I feel the night
Start to change
It calls me home

Heroes
Not one left to praise
Justice
Just a word we say
Preacher
No souls left to save

This is the blood of my
Sister
This is the blood of my
Son
This is a prayer for a
Miracle today
This is the blood of my
Sister
This is the blood of my
Son
Someone should say
No miracles... today

Hey
You
What are you gonna do
After the first time
He takes away
Your heart
Hey
Fool
Time stops for no one
And this no one has a
Few plans of his own
Hey
You
What are you gonna do
After the first time
He takes away
Your heart
You can't make it stop
You can't make it stop

5. Vampire War

I am hatred and sorrow torment and pain
I am sickness and heartache terror and rage
I feed on the hungry I punish the poor
Forgiveness on Sunday can't be the cure to a vampire war
I am mankind
Some call me liar, some call me thief
Some call me devil, lord of deceit
Your soul is forever a childless toy
Forgiveness on Sunday can't be the cure to a vampire war
I am mankind
Vampire war
Love you lovin' me
Lovin' you lovin' me
Tell me your name and I'll be true

6. La Triste Veritá

7. I Am God Here

Welcome to war
A permanent cure
An everyday game we play
Magic and mirrors
Your colors are clearer
The wolf can deceive that way
Back from the dead
You made your own bed
Every lie has a cost
Misguided desire
A funeral fire
The path to salvation is lost

How can you sleep
At the end of the day
When innocents are your prey
Bad habit bad seed
End of the line now
You'll live your life in fear
I am God here

Eviscerated emaciated
Burned and bruised and hated
You roll the dice
You pay the price
I got mine now you'll get yours

Time and again
You walk away
Time and again
A power play
Time and again
You feel the strain
Burned black again
By trusting you
Burned black again
You ran me through
Burned black again
I'm numb to you

8. Savior

9. Alone (Chanson Pour Les Immortels)

10. Jump In The Fire

[originally by Metallica]

Down in the depths of my fiery home
The summons bell will chime
Tempting you and all the earth
to join our sinful kind
There is a job to be done and I'm the one
You people make me do it
Now it is time for your fate and I won't hesitate
to pull you down into this pit

(So come on)
Jump in the Fire
(So come on)
Jump in the Fire

With hell in my eyes and with death in my veins
The end is closing in
Feeding on the minds of man
and from their souls within
My disciples all shout to search you out
And they always shall obey
Follow me now my child not the meek or the mild
But do just as I say

(So come on)
Jump in the Fire
(So come on)
Jump in the Fire

Jump by your will or be taken by force
I'll get you either way
Trying to keep the hellfire lit
I am stalking you as prey
Living your life as me I am you, you see
There is part of me in everyone
So reach down grab my hand walk with me through the land
Come home where you belong

(So come on)
Jump in the Fire
(So come on)
Jump in the Fire

11. The Bad Guy

These are just words
Meaningless letters
On a page
Just like your thoughts
Of no consequence
All the same

Life without me
Could never exist
Every hero needs
His villain
Here I am alone
Atop the list

My name's not Mr. Sunshine
But I won't rain on your parade
Won't share myself with you
Can't be part of that
Charade

Here comes trouble
Here comes pain
Here comes everybody's
Nightmare insane
Here comes shadow
The man in black

I don't care if you live or die
Here comes the bad guy

These walls around me
Never seem to be
Thick enough
To block out your kind
A race of pain and misery
You won't understand me
No matter how
You might try
The need to be seperate
From you
So I'm labeled bad guy

The darkest part of me is
Part of you
I'm part of you
