Lyrics

1. DENY REALITY

The dreamer doesn't stand a chance
A realist keeps her stride
You can't deny reality
You can't deny your mind
Mistake by appearances
So easy to be fooled
The sealed unbroke barrier
That shields her from the truth

Begin to slip inside yourself
Then right back to the start
To see her all is normal
But in face she's worlds apart
Orderlies run to her aid
Expecting to see her pain
Things seem all well but it's too late
The journey starts again
Deny Reality

[Chorus:]
Help me die
Set me free
[Repeat]

Solo: Kev, Mike, Kev, Mike

Twisted thoughts begin to turn
With no real chance of crime
To feel no pain, the shell's the same
And have no sense of time

Feeling suppressed all her life
Had no chance to break out she now lies cold beneath the shroud
Contented soul free to fly out
Deny Reality


2. FOLLOW THE MASSES

Herded like sheep, Treated as cattle
Uniformed grey kitted out for battle
Life is great when they think of you
Work, Sleep, Die, all on cue

But I won't go that way
I want to express myself, no way

[Chorus:]
No, no, you'll upset the system
No, no, you'll have no Wisdom
But soon will come my day
When i can have my say
That's when my skull smashes
Beaten in to following (Follow the masses)

Is there only me i wounder
Are there any others I ponder
Is there a brother on my team
Like held capture, by regime

I feel hammed in and caged
I'm ready to explode my rage

[Chorus:]
No, no, you'll upset the system
No, no, you'll have no Wisdom
But soon will come my day
When i can have my say
That's when my skull smashes
Beaten in to following (Follow the masses)

Follow, follow, follow the masses
Follow, follow, follow the masses
[to end]


3. FATAL DESCENT

You paid the price, your wasted life is flashing by you now
No turning back, you've made the choice to break the sacred vow
Torn apart by endless lies, his world is closing in
Did he jump? or was he pushed? where did it all begin?

[Chorus:]
Fatal descent
Fatal descent

Will anybody miss me when i'm dead and gone
At the rate i'm falling my life's end won't be long
Egos pushed me to this point but now there's no return
I hope the guilt Rests on their heads, will they ever learn


[Chorus:]
Fatal descent
Fatal descent

Slamming off a tower block ain't my idea of fun
Lying here dismembered, regretting what iv'e done
Scraped into a body bag, poured onto a slab
Wreaths are placed in memory for the life i never had

[Chorus:]
Fatal descent
Fatal descent


4. O.P.C.

(Instrumental)


5. D.U.A.F.

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Who d´ya like to see?
Trapped inside your own warped mind
Who d´ya wanna be?
Pancake make up, eyeshadow
Lipstick burning red
Boy, girl, man, women
What´s inside your head ?

[Pre-Chorus]

Talk shit, spreading lies
You invade our minds
Dressing up, acting cool
It ought to be a crime
Look pretty, can´t think
Can you use your brain?
High heels, girl`s clothes
You`re all the fuckin` same

[Chorus]

D.U.A.F.... Die!

D.U.A.F.... Die!

With your Spandex pants, fancy boots
Jimi Hendrix hat
Dpes your mommy really know
You look and dress like that?
Rampant ego, can`t get though
Cause the doors too small
Don`t forget your bike clips
Backs to the wall

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Guitar Solo: Kev Ingleson]

We`re pissed off, fed up
Things have to be said
You`re getting old and boring
Your image has been bled
Change rules, change laws
The time for action`s now
There`s one way you can help us
And we know how!


6. REANIMATOR

A place where no-one walks in
Nobody walks out
Bodies waiting to be brought back
Perfect the life re-agent
Injection to the neck
Re-animated victims, running amok

[Chorus]

Re-animation... taking control
Re-animation... body and soul
Giving life, defeating death
Braindead, heart stops
On your final breath

They said 6 to 12 minutes
But Herbert proved them wrong
The price was high
They paid with their lives
Second birth is painful, retrieved from the dead
Double the dosage, under Westy`s knife

[Chorus]

[Guitar Solo: Mike Abel]

Mix the green solution, and re-animate
Waiting for the undamaged corpse
Time to get the body off the cold
He won`t show any remorse

[Chorus]

Give the dead the appearance of life
Show the world what you can do
They said he was insane, but really he was dead
Eternal life will be achieved soon
