VICIOUS RUMORS LYRICS

1. Break

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn]

Blackened heart that's beating bloodless
Victim of this crazy world
Strapped in my insane asylum
Breeding anger, fighting my battles alone...
I'm a prison
I've been strangled by this noose around my neck
I've been tortured
Spitting out my heart beside my bed
In the darkness
Praying for these chains to break away
I can feel it, freedom's on its way...
Serpents in the devil's pulpit
Cracked lips on their acid smiles
Conjuring their slaves in silence
Manufactured automatons
I can break away, I can set it right
Growing stronger, bound by these shackles too long...
I'm a prison
I've been strangled by this noose around my neck
I've been tortured
Spitting out my heart beside my bed
In the darkness
Praying for these chains to break away
I can feel it, freedom's on its way...
Falling angel, stripped of my power to fly
Holy savior, lift me back into the sky...
Falling angel, stripped of my power to fly
Holy savior, bring me back into your light
I'll never die...
I'm a prison
I've been strangled by this noose around my neck
I've been tortured
Spitting out my heart beside my bed
In the darkness
Praying for these chains to break away
I can feel it, freedom's on its way
Break away, break away
You know I've gotta break away...

2. Sadistic Symphony

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

Freakshow circus, hit parade, nightmares walking
The kids on the Haight, they're begging for change
Without even talking... Not me!
Gonna live my life on 10
Gonna go where no one's been
Take my friends with me
I'm gonna burn this temple down
Gonna dig and break new ground
That's what I believe...
Cranked out carnies flip the switch
On your little darlings
They're trapped on this ride, melting inside
But nobody's crying... Not me!
Gonna live my life on 10
Gonna go where no one's been
Take my friends with me
I'm gonna burn this temple down
Gonna dig and break new ground
I won't be deceived...
Life...
Simple and cruel, scholars and fools, you and me
Trust...
It comes and it goes, nobody knows, and nobody cares
So blame it on me, this hypocrisy of humanity
Sadistic Symphony...
Gonna live my life on 10
Gonna go where no one's been
Take my friends with me
I'm gonna burn this temple down
Gonna dig and break new ground
I've got to believe...
Life...
Simple and cruel, scholars and fools, you and me
Trust...
It comes and it goes, nobody knows, and nobody cares
So blame it on me, this hypocrisy of humanity
Sadistic Symphony...

3. March Of The Damned

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

Fire in the hole, the wretched smell of death
Maniac on the frontline, and napalm on your breath
Let the bell toll...
Tortured by the visions, the haunting of your dreams
It seems like yesterday, can't you hear the screams?
Heartless soldier, the crimson martyr
Can't atone your own disgrace
Find your own death before dishonor
Sacrifice, your saving grace...
But you've got no rules, no rules to keep you sane
You're a prisoner of pain...
But you've got no rules, no rules to keep you sane
No way to win
Still a prisoner of pain...
Heartless soldier, the crimson martyr
Can't atone your own disgrace
Find your own death before dishonor
Sacrifice, your saving grace...

4. Blacklight

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

I once knew a girl, when I was still a mortal man
I dream of being human, to live my life again
I can dream...
I am a prisoner entangled in your web, let me go
The song of the siren diva, devouring your dead
So cold, so very cold...
She's got magnetic eyes and an iron gaze
They tore my soul apart, all apart
Feeding on my energy, she dehumanized my heart
But I can dream...
I am a prisoner entangled in your web, let me go
The song of the siren diva, devouring your dead
So cold, so very cold...
As I embrace the other side, the eternal dark
There's something wicked in your eyes
I couldn't recognize
You put your venom in my veins
I can't take this pain
Now I'm immortally your man, mistress of the damned
Black light love affair, black light love affair...

5. Puritan Demons

[Lyrics: Geoff Thorpe]

Oh you puritan demons hide in your closets of stone.
Are you so pure when the walls crash in and you're overexposed?
Gather round now all demons, taste of blood on your lips.
One of your own has come crawling home and will you be there - No!
Come now hell fire demons, feast as you follow your course.
Circle your prey at the end of the day, cover your tracks at all cost.
Yeah, you puritan demons with your nose in the air I can smell you
Smell you from here and it stinks to high Hell!
On we go day after day, worlds collide and machines take over
Puritan demons display, like vultures they wait for death's leftovers.
Bridges are burned everyday, lessons are learned and taught again.
It's your time to burn
Look at all of those demons drown in a pool of deceit.
Cut off your hands in spite of your face.
I pity for you as you weep the year of the dragon.
The metal dragon's a fire fierce and intense.
I'll take nothing less, I don't have time for these liars.
On we go day after day, worlds collide and machines take over.
Puritan demons display, like vultures they wait for Geoff's leftovers.
Bridges are burned every day, lessons are learned and taught again.
The cycle continues to turn, like a vulture I'll wait.
It's your time to burn!

6. Born Again Hard

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

I've been beaten down, turned inside out
Pounded through the wall
Had my share of scars, cherish them all
Speeding down my own road, headlights to the sky
No remorse and no regrets
That's the way I'll die...
I'm the last of my kind
I've been born again hard
I've seen sanctity slaughtered
And watched my comrades fall...
The price for a piece of mind gets higher every day
I'll pay that toll, charge what you will
And through it all, you know you get what you deserve
In the end, boy, remember what you've learned...
Now you're born again, born again, Born Again Hard!
Rise from your ruin
Now you're born again, born again, Born Again Hard!
I'm the last of my kind, the last in line
I've been born again hard, born again hard
I've seen sanctity slaughtered
And I've watched my comrades fall
You know I've seen them fall...
We're the last of our kind
We've been born again hard, born again hard
We've seen sanctity slaughtered
And watched our comrades fall...

7. Neodymium Man

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

I am the prodigal son, the ghost of the chosen one
I am the god that you want, the god that you need...
Calling out to the young and the old
The torched, the twisted, metallic and cold
Forge and fire, unwilling to bleed
The few, the proud, new metal machines...
Carry the torch over sea, over land
Cutting my way through the "new master plan"
Saving the soul of a world that's on crutches
But I can't save you all, unless you take a stand
And answer the call...
I am the prodigal son, the ghost of the chosen one
I am the god that you want, the one that you need...
Neodymium Man, catch me if you can
Neodymium Man, I'm the master plan
Neodymium Man, catch me if you can
Neodymium Man...
Open your arms to the new metal man
I'm welding your future as fast as I can
So let it be written, so let it be done
And listen to the law, my fellow man
And answer the call...
I am the prodigal son
So look out here I come
Adaptation or extinction...
Neodymium Man, catch me if you can
Neodymium Man, I'm the master plan
Neodymium Man, catch me if you can
Neodymium Man...

8. Elevator To Hell

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

"I forgive you father for your sins..."
Witness this circus clown act of devotion
So tired of watching and processing all of these fools
I've had enough of their lies for a lifetime
So many in fact, I'm immune...
These monsters in masquerade
It's all just as well, Elevator to Hell...
Cutting away all that's pure, leaving cancer
Sutures erupting with greed, we're barely alive
Somewhere in all this decay lies the answer
Somewhere inside you, inside of yourself...
"God says I need a new Cadillac..."
These monsters in masquerade
It's all just as well, Elevator to Hell
There's no final serenades
It's all just as well, Elevator to Hell...

9. Cerebral Sea

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

I'm looking through your eyes
You're staring back at me
And we've got so much time
To drift away...
Here we go, on a journey sailing through the stars
I've built a castle in my heart
It's all for you...
This is my dream
So won't you swim with me?
In this Cerebral Sea
Where we'll be free...
I've found the key to my mind's eye
And I'm unlocking all the doors
Time and space, There's a distant place
We can call our own...
On and on we brave the storm
And hide inside the shadows of our haunted hearts
On and on we sing the song
And sail into the eye of our eternal love...
This is my home, this is my dream
So won't you swim with me?
In this Cerebral Sea
We'll be free...
On and on we brave the storm
And hide inside the shadows of our haunted hearts
On and on we sing the song
And sail into the eye of our eternal love...
But this is my home, this is my dream
So won't you swim with me?
In this Cerebral Sea...

10. Ascention

[Instrumental]

11. Liquify

[Lyrics: Morgan Thorn, Geoff Thorpe]

I am your hero
I am everything you'll never be
Toxic and worshiped
I'll eat all your ammunition...
A fortress of fear and pain is coming straight ahead
Bring on your war, don't give a damn
Your negativity could raise the fucking dead
Misuse of power is all you understand...
You will drown in me
Liquefy...
Meltdown, disintegrate
Your body walks without a soul
Conquest, contaminate
Your bullshit drags you down the road...
A fortress of fear and pain is coming straight ahead
Bring on your war, don't give a damn
Your negativity could raise the fucking dead
Misuse of power is all you understand...
You will drown in me
Liquefy...
You think you can stop me, but you won't
Because I've got the willpower and you don't
Becoming the water, flow...
You will drown in me
Liquefy...
Oceans of anger
I won't choke on your insanity
When I, when I Liquefy
Nothing means a damn to me...
A fortress of fear and pain is coming straight ahead
Bring on your war, don't give a damn
Your negativity could raise the fucking dead
Misuse of power is all you understand...
