1. RIPCORD ROCK

He seeks the place to rock tonight
Goin' to party out head up high
Willing to take on every deal
This night is gonna be empyreal
As he comes to town the rubber burns
He's cruising down the road and every head turns
Decided to leave his mark in history
He jumps out of his car and starts to sing

Forget about the ripcord
Love the free fall
Tear down the surrounding walls
Forget about the ripcord
Love the free fall
If wanna go down
Then it's my call

Got his game going, ready to fight
No ripcord in his mind, he's the king of the night
No one takes the beat from him, he just causes fright
As the cops show up, he's out of sight
Everybody drinks and everybody screams
Nobody wants to see better in their dreams
He's got it going with all the girls
At least tonight he's the king of the world

Forget about the ripcord
Love the free fall
Tear down the surrounding walls
Forget about the ripcord
Love the free fall
If wanna go down
Then it's my call

Hey lady we ain't got
Nothing to lose
What we do tonight is
The thing we choose
Hey baby we don't have
Anything to lose
Do your thing baby and
Just give me some booze

Everybody drinks and everybody screams
Nobody wants to see better in their dreams
He's got it going with all the girls
At least tonight he's the king of the world

Forget about the ripcord
Love the free fall
Tear down the surrounding walls
Forget about the ripcord
Love the free fall
If I wanna go down
Then it's my call

Hey lady we ain't got
Nothing to lose
What we do tonight is
The thing we choose
Hey baby we don't have
Anything to lose
Do your thing baby and
Just give me some booze


2. WIDOWMAKER

I am venom I am vengeance
I am bringer of decadence
Were you right were you wrong
I still know where you belong
Gun for hire death for sale
Leave no one to tell the tale
Can do it quick can do it rough
I've got a case of nasty stuff
Can you hear me coming for you?
Did you see me looking for you?
Do you know what I'm gonna do...
...To you

I'm the widowmaker
The undertaker
A thirst for death
The widowmaker

I am God I am creation
I bring you destruction
Immoral chaotic whore
You make me bore
Try to make your peace now
'Cos your time is running out
I promise to make it painless
My .45 makes doctors useless
Can you hear me coming for you?
Did you see me looking for you?
Do you know what I'm gonna do...
...To you

I'm the widowmaker
The undertaker
A thirst for death
The widowmaker

I don't love you I don't hate you
I get paid for what I do
No worrying no hard feelings
You don't even know my dealings
In the night or in the day
I'm gonna kill you anyway
Feel the blow feel the pain
Fuck you I'm insane
Now you hear me coming for you?
Now you see me looking for you?
Now you know what I'm gonna do...
...To you

I'm the widowmaker
The undertaker
A thirst for death
The widowmaker


3. CORRODER OF MINDS

When he walks into a room bystanders seal their lips
Everyone can feel the tension in the room
He's as evil as the devil and as wanted as a rat
And if you let him bite he'll infect you like a bat
I believe he has no conscience
And has never felt remorse
He'll leave a mark on you
That will never wash away
He uses words just like weapons
And feeds from people's sorrow
Just hope you're not the next one
That he sets his eyes on...

The second you give in
Is the moment when all is lost
He'll sugarcoat an insult
And feed you it as the truth
The more you listen
The more you start to believe
The more you believe
The less will you see

Like vermin or a thief he will creep around your back
With a firmly fixed smile he commences the attack
Everybody knows he's too good at what he does
And everybody wonders what made him good at that
I believe he has no conscience
And has never felt remorse
He'll leave a mark on you
That will never wash away
He uses words just like weapons
And feeds from people's sorrow
Just hope you're not the next one
That he sets his eyes on...

The second you give in
Is the moment when all is lost
He'll sugarcoat an insult
And feed you it as the truth
The more you listen
The more you start to believe
The more you believe
The less will you see

Show him no remorse
Show him no regret
Show him prejudice
Show him real pain
The second you give in
Is the moment when all is lost
He'll sugarcoat an insult
And feed you it as the truth
The more you listen
The more you start to believe
The more you believe
The less will you see


4. NO LAST WORDS

It's on the edge of the world
It's hard to visualize
I've heard stories told
The world ends there
The sea begins to boil
The abyss reveals it's monsters
A bottomless pit swallows all
It's the edge of the world

You know your time has come to pass
When you're standing on the edge of the world
You hope for the best and fear for the worst
You got a thirst for life but no last words

No one came back to tell
But it's rumours you know
One should write down some
Famous last words

You know your time has come to pass
When you're standing on the edge of the world
You hope for the best and fear for the worst
You got a thirst for life but no last words

You hoped and prayed, you wished, you stood
Your ground but never understood
The final thought lodged in your head
Never struck a chord so no last words


5. BACKSTABBER

In the village dark and silent
You did something far too violent
You took one innocent life away
Why you just couldn't let him stay
Life can sometimes be so cruel
But why you have to be the fool
Ruining people's lives today
Tomorrow you'll be on your way

Coward coward coward
You little backstabbin' son of a bitch
Coward coward coward
You're gonna get what is coming for you

One day you will think of things
One day you will pay for your sins
One day you'll beg on your knees
One day that grin of yours will freeze
One day we will give you pain
One day suffering you will gain
One day...

Coward coward coward
You little backstabbin' son of a bitch
Coward coward coward
You're gonna get what is coming for you

For you there is only hell
You don't even have a soul to sell
All you leave behind is pain and sorrow
We wish you'll be dead tomorrow

We won't
Bother to think of your kind
You can't
Ever pay back what you owe

Coward coward coward
You little backstabbin' son of a bitch
Coward coward coward
You're gonna get what is coming for you
Backstabber, backstabber, backstabber...


6. GOING OUT FOR GOOD

What's happened to my head
The less I know the older I get
I'm on a conveyor belt
Ready to be molded
I won't cave in
You wanna try?

All my life they told me what to do
I'm here to break the cycle
I'm taking my own road
All this time I waited 'round for you
I'm here to break the habit
I'm going out for good

I won't cave in
You wanna try?
All my life they told me what to do
I'm here to break the cycle
I'm taking my own road
All this time I waited 'round for you
I'm here to break the habit
I'm going out for good


7. VORTEX

Stand here aside me
We'll watch the raindrops dance
Out from the ocean
A black sphere of emptiness is
Rising above us
Blocking out the sun
Vast mass of water
Rising high and growing ever larger
Out in the darkness
Ever floating still
Those who get mixed in
Never get to escape the
Diabolical spinning
Changes who you are
The black space is a dead end
It absorbs you and never let's you go

From the darkness it came alive
Spiralling fast it wants to thrive
When the last day comes to end
There won't be no one left to mend

The vortex never came here
But still we fear the same
Living like there's no end
Living like it's all the same
One by one we get sucked in
Nation by nation
Living like we're only ones
Living on the face of earth
The ones who have the power
Created the vortex
To make them large in numbers
And leave the rest outside
The holy inner circle
Of power craving minds
We hope to bring an end to
Hunger for greed

Keep running away from
The ugly truth
Keep looking away from
The ugly truth
End looms before us
Inevitable and strong
Embrace the truth now
And realize the vortex was a
Metaphor of decadence
The falling of our world
To a state of sickness
Nothing can resurrect us

From the darkness it came alive
Spiralling fast it wants to thrive
When the last day comes to end
There won't be no one left to mend


8. BROKEN WINGS

You tore down my walls
You tore down my house
I'll build them up again
I'll make them stronger than before
You tore down my dreams
You ripped my life apart
I'll pick up the pieces
And make them whole again
You beat me to the ground
And kicked when I was down
But when you turned to flee
I got back on my feet
You told me I was lost
You said I had no hope
Although my wings were broken
Every door to me was open
Once I started to trust in you
I lost faith in myself
I thought you were the light in the dark
Now I know that you were the darkness
Fool me once, fool me twice
Give me your advice
I let you pick, I let you choose
I let you make me lose
You're a liar, you're a cheater
You're a true deceiver
I'm the white, you're the black
But you're never coming back
