1. DOWNER Flying so low to the ground Cynical view, the world gone wrong Banished utopia laid to waste before its time Heeds the worst case scene in his heathen ways Got no use for a crutch Solutions bring more questions to your mind Answers never found Chorus: Given life, but born to die Made to suffer, age and go blind Given life, but left to die We're all goners when doomsday's near Slavin' and wastin' our time Spinnin' the wheel at the same old grind Taken for granted, trodden and trampled Fake smiles hiding rage Jealous masquerade on crooked paths Will my task be done When the noose is hung before I die Chorus Downer, doomsyer, downer Downer, truth-seeker, downer Solo - Perry ***** 2. CASTLE PEAK Slide Solo - Perry From this tower I can see it all Past, present, future in chaos Many years ago I climbed this slope I was young, down, in need of hope A rite of passage to manhood The truth written in alcove stone Friends stry and turn their backs I found my calling on that ledge Visions of a deep blue sky The roar of guitars in my mind Chorus: Natives planted their feet here I find my dreams when I am near It might seem bleak, but it's real Castle Peak, the summit heals It's a long journey down Some slip, some fall, lose it all I returned to blaze that trail Striving to reach new heights Chorus Solo - Perry In moonlight its shadow looms Sentinel for the valley below Seasons pass and trials true The tower stands by the moon Find the time to ride the wind And scale the cliff to destiny Chorus ***** 3. ON THE SLAB Shootin' up and tappin' your veins You're burning out, hangin' by gallows high Makin' my gallows high Stars goin' nova before their time At the end of your rope You'll inhale your death off a slab On the slab Chorus: I still remember those days when rock legends they died hard Never learning their lesson, stickin' those needles in their arms Never heeding that warning till they're laid out on a slab Turning off and turning out Dropping off Earth's face Escaping reality's walls Tasting evil flowers, staring into space Fading out and sinking low You're losing touch You're dyin' hard Never growing up Always giving in Chorus Solo - Perry Reaching out for blue skies Clawing at that gray soil Taking the long slide down to a beggar's grave Excuses so lame to glorify your game Long since gone Your family, they cry Your beligerence You gave up everything dear Leaving your friends in fear Leaving your friends in tears Chorus ***** 4. THE CRYING OF THE LOT 426 I climbed so high Wanna touch the indigo sky Hitting a brick wall Hopes crumble, I scream and call Rugged landscape, watch it bleed Purple hills, got no need Trees uprooted, toxic litter Auction 'em off to the highest bidder Barbed wire to keep us out False intentions, there is no doubt No man by his own hands Can sell or tame this land Build your mall, level it all No retreat to the wild Concrete entombs us all No respite for nature's child What belongs to all of us who walk the Earth What belongs to all of us who breathe the air Corporate men with pockets deep Never climbed the mountains steep They hide behind their city walls Piling bills in bank vaults - Oh no! Solo - Perry Out of stone I'll build my castle Politics, I don't want your hassle Just got to live out my days in peace Want all this pushing to cease Rugged landscape, watch it bleed Purple hills, got no need Trees uprooted, toxic litter Auction 'em off to the highest bidder Oh no! ***** 5. THROWBACK Theme Lead - Perry They say my hair's too long They say my jeans are too tight They claim I play too loud - too loud! And lead the Pentagram crowd - livin' in a ram! Chorus: I'm a throwback, baby Born too late Well, I'm a throwback, baby But I wasn't taught to hate Got my axe slung high My Doom notes don't lie They watch my heroes die Public eye don't cry Chorus People try to put me down But they just don't understand I'm a heavy rockin' man Heavy rockin', heavy rockin' man, yeah! Feedback guitar - Perry Solo - Perry Chorus I'm a godless son I'm the nameless one Heavy rockin' raw I'll split you like a saw - Buzzsaw! ***** 6. REDMAN (BANG COVER) Nations died and lost their land And sacred ground turned to sand Our leaders words the cries of our kin Aswirl around us, adrift in the wind A weapon of war invaded mankind Fatal germs killed all left behind Sparing those few who fled underground Unlike the Redman would never be found We all need a wishing star A spirit to tell us who we are Our future's unclear it's baked in the clay Give us a chance to start a new day Start a new day... Solo - Perry Why we were spared we may never know We're given a choice, a gun or a bow Beneath our feet the survivors have died Again through the calm of nature we ride We all need a wishing star A spirit to tell us who we are Our future's unclear it's baked in the clay Give us a chance to start a new day Start a new day... ***** 7. HIGH SPEED LOVE Revs are climbing higher I'm lightin' up the tires Just like Formula One Slippin' into fifth gear, hoping there's no cops near I'm Attila the Hun - on wheels! High Speed Love! Smokin' on the eight track Think I'm on a race track Nicky Lauda here I come When I hit the open road is when I go go go Just like Formula One High Speed Love! Lead Guitar Fills - Greg Break hard, heel and toe Hit the gas, can't go slow Oh, I think I'm in love Double clutch downshift Throw it in a power drift Oh, I know I'm in love High Speed Love! Solo - Greg ***** 8. ROUTE 666 Cruising down the road, how could I know What would happen that night My engine just died, I didn't know why My eyes were blinded with light I started to run, then started the fun For then came the Beast in the night I turned round to see it beckon to me And felt my blood turn to ice - to ice! As it capered toward me, all I could see Were eyes filled with fire As I felt its caress, and the heat of its kiss My loathing turned to desire I leapt to its touch, fell into its clutch My heart beat faster and faster I knew it too late to change my fate I was slave, It was master When you travel down this road You know you're sellin' your soul To the Beast who is waiting For you alone On Route 666 Oh, now you've been picked By the Beast who is waiting On Route 666 Solo - Perry If you don't believe what happened to me Don't you call me a liar Just look in my eyes; Don't look so surprised I said they're filled with fire Now it's your turn, and now you will learn What it means to be picked So goodby my friend, I'll see you again I'll meet you on Route 666... ***** 9. SHELOB'S LAIR Escape from danger to the light of day But they knew too little of Shelob's ways Thoughts are stifled in the choking air Forever trapped in Shelob's Lair Shelob's Lair Warned by eyes that never sleep Orcs swarm from their dungeons deep Nazgul's cries rent the air The Ringbearer lies in Shelob's Lair Solo - Perry Shelob was hungry, intent on her prey She never looked where Samwise lay Even as Sam looked on in despair She sensed an intruder in Shelob's Lair Shelob's Lair Too late she looked and felt the bite The bite of Sting pierced her side Stench of death filled the air Now Shelob dies in Shelob's Lair Slay that bitch! Solo - Greg ***** 10. HALF PAST HUMAN Travel forward into time, to see what's going to be Evolution in reverse; an ugly thing to see Fifty million centuries; Man-Ape ruled the Earth Science is forgotten, as Darkness sweeps its curse The dying sun flickers, like a candle in the wind Man-Ape only laughs; there's still time for sin Sacrifices to the Beast; hear their baleful cries A ritual old as time; for evil never dies The Beast has arisen; to lead Its Chosen Ones Into darkness eternal, beneath the dying sun Underneath the eidolon, the ritual begins Thirteen screaming souls, to feed the one within Solo - Perry Earth is dark and frozen; there'll never be another dawn The bloody rule has ended, for mankind's faithless spawn Dead disciples, a frozen Earth, but the Beast It does not mourn It croakes a laugh and turns Its thoughts to worlds as yet unborn 4th Verse Leas Fills - Greg Solo - Greg lyrics added by IllusionLord - Modify this lyrics
