W.A.S.P. LYRICS

1. Scream

Was I your one, gonna love
Incense rising from your flame
To worship one and to run
Your gods of war are yours to blame
'Cause I want you to scream!
I want you to scream my name,
Come on and scream!
I want you to scream my name

Come on and scream if you love me and make it bleed if you want me,
Here comes heartbraker taking your heart
You gonna cry if you want me
You gonna lie if you love me
Ooh, Get up! Get up! Get up! Get out! 'cause I don't want to know

Do you believe, do you see the graven idol of your love
And pray to me and to feed and bow down to your dangerous God
'Cause I want you to scream!
I want you to scream my name
Come on and scream!
I want you to scream my name

Come on and scream if you love me and make it bleed if you want me.
Ooh, here comes heartbraker taking your heart
You gonna cry if you want me,
You gonna lie if you love me
Ooh, Get up! Get up! Get up! Get out! 'cause I don't want to know

No lies,
Ooh, no lies for you to feed
All we touch turns to dust, so helplessly
No eyes, oh no eyes could never see
No broken idols of mad passions make believe
No! No! No!

Ooh, scream my name (scream, scream, scream)

Come on and scream if you love me and make it bleed if you want me
Ooh, here comes heartbraker taking your heart
You gonna cry if you want me
You gonna lie if you love me
Get up! Get up! Get up! Get out! 'cause I don't want to know
Your eyes, no your eyes could never see
How long you gonna wait forever, idols of stone listen never NO!

2. Last Runaway

The morning glory poured down on me
Stars were in my eyes
Desperate a babe in teens I
was scared to death of
What I'd find

On borrowed beds of nails I wailed
And I'd lose control
So shamelessly so starved to be
Down this orphan's road

If time runs away tomorrow
There's nowhere left to hide
To the promised land
The roads I ran
But nowhere left to ride

The last runaway tonight
Has come home
And I'm running from the night
Oh, from where I roamed
It was the best days of our lives now
The world was ours to run
The last runaway tonight
(The last runaways alive)
I'm coming home

The price of pride bled down on me
And ransomed my soul
A broken boulevard of dreams
Like misfits and their broken toys
A runaway a slave in chains
I'd lose control
So painlessly, so hard to see
Down this beggar's road

In the land of lost and make believe
We shelter from the cold
Lay down my head
And hear no voices
My face so bold
Turn my back
And feared redemption
Like a thief I stole
Escape this place to erase my shadow
Lord don't wanna lose my soul

And help me Lord to make it
This weights too great to lift my soul no more
Just one last chance to change it
Give me back my life I can't wait to live
Na, na, na, ooh, na, na ,na
Oh, na, na, na, ooh, na, na, na

3. Shotgun

When your madman's raised to king
And your starving babies scream
One world, one king you think is your god
And freedoms dead and long gone
A slave in chains don't never change his song
Grab a torch, a pitchfork and get your guns

You gave them hope and you tied the rope
Dead man's bones don't lie
Shot a beast and I licked my teeth

Tonight, hail to the king a shotgun
Tonight, got a rock and roll gun
(Tonight, lock and loading my gun)
Shoot if they stand
Shoot if they run
And pray that lightning strikes 'em
Tonight, it's alright
Hail to the king a shotgun

Abd you cheered y'alls clown to king
Till your tongue's too numb to scream
Ooh, the promise of tomorrow is long gone
And the whip keeps pounding down now
From the head that wears the crown
The plantations cotton's rotten so long

You swore an oath and you lied the most
Your villain king don't cry
Choose a gun now or lose your sons

And you might pray to the fool you are
Villain kings don't cry
Save your women and save yourselves
This ain't no time to cry, tonight

And you might play to the fool you are
Run for your lives
Choose a gun now or lose your son, mama

4. Miss You

Lost inside our room
A priest at the door with news
Said you were gone and I knew - ooh and
My world was broken in two
I'd pray that you were here
To hold my heart
I'd hide myself in our bed
And cry myself numb

Oh God I miss you - tell me can you hear me
Oh God I miss you - I can't scream and I can't speak
Show me now (Tell me how)
Will I ever be free from you
(Oh God I miss you)

Lost inside my head
I closed my eyes and fled
No pain, no gain, no death no more
I drown myself in flesh
Is there no way out no way how
Would you even know me now

I've found this thing that I make sing
Can you hear me now
Why did you go and leave
Me alone
Now I'm running away
From my home
No they'll never know
I'm gone
They don't know how, no how

Can you hear me now - ooh
Do you see somehow - ooh
Is there no love from your great beyond
Can you hear me now

5. Fallen Under

Show me wonders, take me under
Your wings open wide
Slave and hunger, starve and hunt you
Heal me from this leper's life
Save me from crawling in darkness
Save me so blind
Change me from a slave unto monsters
Raise me from this water to wine

I'm fallen under, fallen under
Ooh claim me from a thousand days
Raise me won't ya
Been bathed in blood over you
I'm fallen under,fallen under
Come save me from a thousand flames
A slave to want ya
Been chained to crawl under you

Pull me up from saints of darkness
Breath me back to life
Slave in hostage slain in bondage
Bathe me in your blood back alive
Save me from armies of darkness
Save me so cruel
Un-chain me let me walk on the water
Un-chain me from me dying a fool

There's no soul of nothing inside
No heart beating, bleeding no-thing
Only you can breath me lifeless
See the last I breath
I'm coming home

I'm fallen under you
I'm fallen under you
I'm lost in wonder you
I'm going under you
I'm lost and hunger you
I'm fallen under you

6. Slaves Of The New World Order

Show me the grave new world
You, sold me you slaves of change
Slaves to the new world order
Bound believing in change to chains
Woe is me I stand before you
And part a sea of eternity
Bloody nails, I waited and prayed
But your deceived and laid to waste

Bloody kings and slaves to thunder
Swear to your dying king
Empires and walls of fire fall
Bloody screams and graven wonder
Remember your dying king
New truth to lies claim you all

How long, brother. How long
How long will you slave
How long, mother. How long ya
Bow down crowned in chains

Hold the tail and feel the thunder
Close enough to smell the devil's breath
Between the nails I saved one thief
And ride to hell and lay waste to death
Don't show me no 7 wonders
Don't ya show me no 7 sins
All you are is just dying men
Who preach to other dying men

Bloody kings and burning crosses
Pray to your lying king
Oh how long oh until it falls
Bloody screams and slaves to thunder
Remember your dying king when
New truth to your lies that claim you all

How long, how long
How long till the new world finds you prey
How long, how long
So long to your children sold in chains
HOw long, how long
Till ya see your New World orphans
Dig your graves

7. Eyes Of My Maker

I am fell and I've been cursed
My rebellion from my pride
And I choosed a third and I fooled the earth
Loosed in heaven like a noose I bindBehold I tell, of a bolt I fell
Of lightning in the sky
Ooh and preyed on Eve to curse and grieve
Ooh and I'm damned for all time

Take me inside
Can you bring me alive
How can I kneel
When my soul's a liar

Take me inside
Come on, bring me alive
Eyes of my maker
Was I chose and why

Hear me how, where I rule for now
My pearls before swine
And in that tree I lied, deceived
Naked I preyed a snake in the vine
Golgothas' worst, I railed and cursed
And nailed the cross all time
Ooh by chapter and verse, by God I'm cursed
Cause I can' look into His face I'm blind

Take me, won't you take me
Damned to man when I fell from the sky
My makers eyes, bring me alive
How can I kneel when my soul's a liar
Take me inside, bring me alive
Eyes of my maker was I chose and why

8. Hero Of The World

A storms is on horizon eve
Rising on all it see's
Look up, it's blowing in the night
Time is come and start to run
From all your running from
Woe to those with child to lose your life

In chaos comes your hero
And all the children sing
Superman from a foreign land
Tyranus with an iron hand

Countdown comes to zero
Valley of the Kings
Messiah Man with a better plan
Hero of the world at last

The clock has turned and soon you see
Masses burn and fill the streets
Still we make a lying prophet god
Ooh panic comes and chaos seeds
Sell your freedom for tyranny
Tidal wave is coming better run

Why is it for that we still cannot see
Our lies too much, still we fall
It's all come before but we oh, don't believe
Ooh damned to repeat until we crawl

And still it comes but we won't see
And nothings learned from history
Say a prayer and watch the air tonight
Ooh this tale is old and stories told
One to come o claim the world
Watch aware it might just save your life

9. Golgotha

Do you hear the wailing now
Do you hear'em nailing down
To a crown of thorns on
Sorrows born
Heaven's come down for
Sweat like blood comes down
Eclipse a shadow now
The sun is gone and sorrows come
Where it slithers from

Jesus I need you now
Free me I'm lost somehow
Oh, remember me today
I'm a leper left to hang
Oh, yes I need you now

Jesus I need you now
Show me I'm lost somehow
Oh, and show me there's a way from
The cross from where I hang
Oh see me bleed, I need you now

Tell me where I'm going now
Ooh am I lost or found
Are you who they say
Are you who they claim
Oh, remember me
Say a little prayer somehow, ooh
Show me where I'm bound ooh
God I'm falled
The bells are tolling
Just remember me, my name, my name

I'm slowly slipping into
These wings that carry on
My knees are bloody from my crawl
Show me there's a reason
Keep believing you're the one
My knees are buried at your cross

Tell me where I'm going now
Tell me am I going down
Are you who they say you claim
Remember me this night

Breath and hear me now
Ooh bring me alive
Show me all Golgotha's mine
Shadows forever night
Oh is there no hope for me?
Oh, somewhere you'll show for me?
Oh, I'm holding on believing thee's a reason I can find
Oh oh Lord remember me, take me up tonight
