WRATHCHILD AMERICA LYRICS

1. Climbin' The Walls

I know, you know
Something's gotta break
If this shit don't come to a halt
There's not much more I can take
Wheels are spinning, lawyers are grinning
To see what I'm gonna do
Minds arranging, I'm tired of changin'
Something's gotta pull me through

Club owners say, "Didn't make your pay,
I think we must got took"
Don't fuck with me, I'm glad to see
You're smarter than you look,
No vacancy, no vacancy, everywhere I stop
When you see me doing, 83 in a 55
I might kill a cop
'Cause I'm

Climbin' the walls standin' on the edge
Climbin' the walls insanity's the ledge
Climbin' the walls till I can't catch my breath
Climbin' the walls I'm gettin' closer to death

I ain't got no money and that ain't funny
Check is in the mail
Agents are barkin', the fire ain't sparkin'
And I'm livin' in a private hell
People say you gotta pay
To play in a winners game
Well I am me, a lunatics friend
And nothing else stays the same
'Cause I'm

Climbin' the walls standin' on the edge
Climbin' the walls insanity's the ledge
Climbin' the walls till I can't catch my breath
Climbin' the walls I'm gettin' closer to death

2. Hell's Gates

When you see me comin'
and you hear me cry
you see the look of fear
and the chill in my eye

you play the killers game, all the faces have no names
he'll come to hunt you out and he'll live to cut you down
now your god can't help you, you are on your own
he'll drag you through the fiery gates to bow before his throne

Satan waits
at hells gates
Desecrate
pain, torture, hate
Destruction lies far down below
Hells gates are filled with fire
Love has no hidden meaning
You're cursed and damned a liar
Satan waits
at hells gates
Desecrate
pain, torture, hate

Live in hatred die in grief
Challenging my disbelief
Burning flames are boiling my brain
Lucifer inflicting the pain
Wretched life that didn't matter
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
You lie decaying your final chapter
Your misused soul lies in his clutch

You got nowhere to run got nowhere to hide
There's turmoil all around you like
The coming of the tide
Now you can't help but wonder
About your after life
When you wake up dead
Horns or halo, burn or fly

Live in hatred die in grief
Challenging my disbelief
Burning flames are boiling my brain
Lucifer inflicting the pain

3. No Deposit, No Return

She had the face of a queen
She was wild wet and mean
When I went down in between
She said she wanted to try
But she didn't know why
All she had was that look in her eye
I said you come to my place
You sit down on my face
I'll make you see things you never saw
It was checkmate, stalemate,
The bitch she was jailbait
I think it was against the law

Now I gotta have more of what's in store
So I said to myself no use
She didn't give me the time
She didn't give me the dime
But she gave it all to me when she went

Well I thought I had it made
When I finally got paid
I had my own little, private French maid
I've had her all these years,
She's been nothing but tears
I live my hole life in fear
Now I gotta have more of what's in store
So I said to myself no use
She didn't give me the time
She didn't give me the dime
She gave it all to me she did 'cause

It was checkmated
It was stalemated
It was jailbaited
It was checkmated
It was stalemated
It was jailbaited
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return

Now I'm trying to get out of this mess I'm in
With a friendly old bottle of Gin
She took all my money so I'll grab some change
When I take the bottle back in
But as I took my last drink
I threw up in the sink
And I noticed that the empty bottle read
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return
No deposit, no return no deposit, no return

5. London After Midnight

Too many times they tried to kill
The Prince of the dark
To put an end to his evil life
By means of a stake through his heart
But every time the sun goes down
The terror starts to rise
The gas lamps over the streets of London
Flicker as his cape flies by

He lost his soul to the king of darkness
From the first lethal bite
He lives his death in fear of the cross
The urge to kill every night

Too many countries have chased him hard
To destroy his need for blood
To seal his coffin with the ho1y nail
To stop before he strikes again
But every time they invade his castle
Nosferatu was never there
Those foolish victims are his next meal
Death is in his stare

He lost his soul to the king of darkness
From the first lethal bite
He lives his death in fear of the cross
The urge to kill every night

London after midnight
Blood lust till the down
London after midnight
Your mortal life is gone

Even he who is pure in heart
And says his prayers by night
May become a bat when the vampire prowls
And the moon is full and bright

Watch your neck
What's that shadow on the wall
A virgin boy on a black stallion
Just walked across my grave

London after midnight
Blood lust till the down
London after midnight
Your mortal life is gone
London after midnight
Blood lust till the down
London after midnight
Your mortal life is gone

6. Candy From A Madman

Step under the streetlight let me see your face
There's a madman loose in this neighborhood
He draws blood 'cause he likes the taste
Carries a knife, carries a gun
Run for your, life 'cause he's having fun
Life to him is a four-letter word
So hold your mother's hand and hide your eyes

He talks to his own reflection
Laughs at his dirty thoughts
He's a student of his own philosophy
He applies what he's been taught
So he licks his lips
Pulls his fingers through his air
Doesn't have a reason
'Cause he doesn't have a care
It's one man's world and he's in charge
As far as he's concerned you're better off dead

Don't take candy from a madman
Don't look too deep into his eyes
Don't take candy from a madman
Sweet bait always lies
It's the coldness of his blade
Deadly power of his blow
Dripping blood from wounded flesh
Insanity starts to flow
Twisted thoughts inside his head
Make it easier to kill
Fear entangled in his mine
But show it never will

Don't take candy from a madman
Don't look too deep into his eyes
Don't take candy from a madman
Sweet bait always lies

As he dances with his shadow
As he feverishly grins
As he buttons up his jacket
With cold and icy hands
As he sharpens up his blade
As he laughs about his pain
As he wipes his runny nose
As he walks into your room
Goodnight

7. Silent Darkness (Smothered Life)

Darkness fills the corners of my swollen eyes
The Earth around me doesn't make a sound
I wish it was a dream but it's time I realize
I'm still alive, but six feet underground

Not much air, there's not much time
There's not much hope
The seconds seem like hours in my mind
In pitch black darkness I could lose my sanity
The panic flows like ice through my veins

I can hear, their, muffled laughter
Can they hear my screams?
It doesn't matter now 'cause they don't care
It's all a harmless drunken joke to them it seems
I can't laugh I'm running out of air

Silent darkness fills my ears and eyes
(Smothered life)
Trapped by Earth my body screams
Death from below creeping slowly
(Smothered life)
I realize this hell is not a dream

My eyes are covered
With the dirt that seals my grave
My breath is getting shorter all the time
All I hear is silence, but I'm not alone
Insects just like chills run down my spine

Silent darkness fills my ears and eyes
(Smothered life)
Trapped by Earth my body screams
Death from below creeping slowly
(Smothered life)
I realize this hell is not a dream

There's maggots in my bloodstream now
And filth beneath my skin
Won't rest in peace until I know
My death has been avenged
The smell down here is rancid
My breath it reeks of sin
Been buried alive, my corpse will rise
Revenge lies deep within
My soul it climbs up through the Dirt
To haunt the Earth above
Revenge is all fucking seek
Tonight there is no love
And to those helpless culprits
I'll reek catastrophe
And only then will I rest in peace
For all eternity

8. Time

Ticking away the moments
That make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground
In your hometown
Waiting for someone or something
To show the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying here to watch the rain
You are young and life is long
There's always time to kill today
And then one day you'll find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun
But its sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way
But you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught
Or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation
Is the English way
The time is gone the song is over
Thought I'd something more to say
Home, home again
I like to here when I can
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell

9. Day Of The Thunder

Suits of armor mounted ready for war
The eagle is in the sky
They rule the land by their queens command
If their rival is prepared to die

The fog has lifted and the daylight appears
They say a final prayer
The trumpets sing the sound of battle
The lance of the lord they bear

Bravely they shout their attack
And they know that there's no turning back
Young men aimlessly slaughtering lives
Fearful tearfully missing their wives

It's the day of the Thunder
That all men shall hear
He who serves under one
The old wizard quotes
From the book which he reigns
Thy will shall be done

The battle has ended and the smoke has cleared
The armor lays in piles
Many honor those young men who died
Thunder was heard for miles

Sadly those heroes were young
Sadly nobody won
Rulers grotesquely throw away lives
Bastards puncture your soul with their knives

It's the day of the Thunder
That all men shall hear
He who serves under one
The old wizard quotes
From the book which he reigns
Thy will shall be done
