1. MISS MACHINE

(My queen Miss Machine
My queen Miss Machine
My queen Miss Machine
My queen Miss Machine
My queen...)

She's interactive
I'm abstract
(My queen Miss Machine)
Constructed to provide
All that I lack
The autopilot is in gear
(My queen Miss Machine)
My ardour filling up
The atmosphere

No hidden button
Hard to find
I flick this switch
To blow her mind

Revenge is the deepest desire
For injustice to fall
And the species survive
But solitude kills
Like a cold kiss of death
I yearned for the touch
Cared not for the breath
With no signs of age
And no future rust
No heart to decay
And with no loss of lust
I am the king
I've made you my queen
My android dream
(My android dream)
My queen Miss Machine

(My queen Miss Machine)

Her serial number's
Tattoo form
(Her serial number's
Tattoo form)
666.7/8/1984
Etched down her spine
In silver scrawl
(Etched down her spine
In silver scrawl)
My poisoned pleasure
Proto-porn

Revenge is the deepest desire
For injustice to fall
And the species survive
But solitude kills
Like a cold kiss of death
I yearned for the touch
Cared not for the breath
With no signs of age
And no future rust
No heart to decay
And with no loss of lust
I am the king
I've made you my queen
My android dream
(My android dream)

One of a kind

Revenge is the deepest desire
For injustice to fall
And the species survive
But solitude kills
Like a cold kiss of death
I yearned for the touch
Cared not for the breath
With no signs of age
And no future rust
No heart to decay
And with no loss of lust
I am the king
I've made you my queen
My android dream
(My android dream)
My queen Miss Machine


2. DRAG ME TO HELL

(One)
You like to give me strength
To face the daily dirt
(Two)
You fill my hollow heart
With fake self worth
(Three)
You like to let me know
I cannot break the spell
(Four)
The more I reach out for Heaven
The more you drag me to Hell

This love eviscerates
Still I am in your thrall
Sleep offers no escape
I feel temptation call
Repulsed by my own mind
Obsession craves respect
To justify the time
When all the pain
Can make sense to me
You can't be what you're not
(The more I reach out for Heaven
The more you drag me to Hell)

Hate me
Forever and ever
The more that you love me
The more it will ever
Kill me
Forever and ever
The more that life stabs me
The more and the more and the more
The more that I reach out for Heaven
The more you drag me to Hell

You keep the secret of
My sordid other life
You guarantee to take
My lows so high
Then I fall again
You can't beat what you are
(The more I reach out for Heaven
The more you drag me to Hell)

Hate me
Forever and ever
The more that you love me
The more it will ever
Kill me
Forever and ever
The more that life stabs me
The more and the more and the more
The more that I reach out for Heaven
The more you drag me to Hell

(One)
You've made me steal
You've made me lie
(Two)
You've made me weak
Wanting to die
(Three)
I'm not your first
Won't be your last
(Four)
All that I ask
Don't drag me to Hell

Drag me to Hell
It's war baby, war baby
War baby, yeah
It's war baby, war
Life is war
Drag me to Hell

Hate me
Forever and ever
The more that you love me
The more it will ever
Kill me
Forever and ever
The more that life stabs me
The more and the more and the more
The more that I reach out for Heaven
The more you drag me to Hell

Hate me

Kill me

The more that I reach out for Heaven
The more you drag me to Hell


3. THE LOVE OF GOD

Their bodies
Cold in unmarked graves
A poor reward for faith
(The love of God)
No chapter called 'Hereafter'
No matter
How you choose to pray
So breathe another day
(The love of God)

We all have lost
The love of God
(The love of God)
(The love of...)
We all have lost
The love of God
(The love of God)
(The love of...)
We are forlorn
We're lone and torn
Never reborn
The love of God
God!

(The love of God)

The myth of 'good' and 'evil'
That our
Oppressors propagate
Will not decide our fate
(The love of God)
Those in eternal torment
Helplessly
Calling out his name
To their last breath
No-one came

We all have lost
The love of God
(The love of God)
(The love of...)
We all have lost
The love of God
(The love of God)
(The love of...)
We are forlorn
We're lone and torn
Never reborn
The love of God
God!

God, we need to escape
To find a better place
Find some inner peace
In outer space

We all have lost
The love of God
(The love of God)
(The love of...)
We all have lost
The love of God
(The love of God)
(The love of...)
We are forlorn
We're lone and torn
Never reborn
The love of God!


4. RAINING STARS

I had to find you
Slow motion horror was everywhere
Your safety was my only care
And then I catch you
As all the terrified people run
Two silhouettes become one

The sky the deepest red
The sun the bleakest black
We hold each other and hail
The final act

An old man grabbed me
Clad in a velveteen cloak
And hood
Screaming fear and weeping blood
Well, let them panic
We're hypnotised from above
No time
No time for fear, just for love

The sky the deepest red
The sun the bleakest black
All words are worthless now
There's no way back

Relax and enjoy the show

Now welcome dear apocalypse
We dance in raining stars
We turn this nightmare into bliss
(Woah...)
Snowing fire and raining stars
(Woah...)
Snowing fire and raining stars

On the horizon
Blue silver thunderbolts
Stole our breath
The warm embrace of facing death
This sweet defiance
Your eyes ignite in the fumes
Just like
Diamonds in the blood moon

The sky the deepest red
The sun the bleakest black
Each second ours to share
So make them last

Now welcome dear apocalypse
We dance in raining stars
We turn this nightmare into bliss
(Woah...)
Snowing fire and raining stars
(Woah...)
Snowing fire and raining stars

No need to list regret
There's no way back

Now welcome dear apocalypse
We dance in raining stars
We turn this nightmare into bliss
(Woah...)
Snowing fire and raining stars
(Woah...)
Snowing fire and raining stars


5. IN SILENCE

There was a time
When we travelled all alone
Through the depths
Of infinity as dust
Eventually
Our molecules formed a stone
As we gratified
Our restless wanderlust

We're floating in our memory
Through time and space untethered
Time travellers in disguise
May we trip forever
In silence
We drift with endeavour
In silence
We're in this together

We fought to find
A place to feel as one
To fill the vacuum
With more than emptiness
With many more of us
We built a glowing sun
To light our path
Into the endlessness

We're floating in our memory
Through time and space untethered
Time travellers in disguise
May we trip forever
In silence
We drift with endeavour
In silence
We're in this together

We formed so many shapes
In a million years
Yet we are the lost
No lighthouse in the spheres

We're floating in our memory
Through time and space untethered
Time travellers in disguise
May we trip forever
In silence
We drift with endeavour
In silence
We're in this together

In silence
We're in this together


6. BLACK OXIDE

Dark queen
With a crown of thorns
I'm fading
In your arms
You're a force of
The universe
(Let's get to the other side)
I'm drowning
In a flood of sin
Liquid
Brands my skin
The waves come
Crashing in
(Let's get to the other side)

When the poison
Shoots in my veins
Thunder strikes
In my inside
My blood turns
Into acid rain
Worlds collide
Black oxide

Black oxide

Dark queen
With a crown of thorns
The earth's not
Where I belong
My saviour
Or my swan song
(Let's get to the other side)
Pretenders
But no king
Your victims
Know that grin
Caustic
Beast within
(No regret on the other side)

When the poison
Shoots in my veins
Thunder strikes
In my inside
My blood turns
Into acid rain
Worlds collide
Black oxide
Black oxide

Black oxide

I'm hearing
A sad refrain
Grimly sublime
Is this my time
Or is my mind
Playing tricks again
For woe betide
Black oxide

When the poison
Shoots in my veins
Thunder strikes
My ferrous guide
My soul's immersed
In your domain
A dream denied
Black oxide
Black oxide!
Black oxide
Black oxide!
Black oxide
Black oxide!


7. INTERSTELLAR WARS

You are the sun for me
Your sacred burning lap
That gives life, then destroys
Say, will you
Catch me in your trap?
I'm melting in your heat
In your mouth my lips corrode
As we travel through the gears
And finally explode

You rape my heart
With wicked words
(If only you would)
(Listen, dear)
You rape my heart
A blessed curse
(To suffer in your)
(Atmosphere)
You rape my heart
And sacrifice
(My emotions)
(To the stars)
You rape my heart
We're sworn to fight
(In our interstellar wars)

You are the sun for me
I'm circling round your light
Like a moth I crave a spark
In the darkest of all skies

You're my black hole of life
Please suck me back inside

You rape my heart
With wicked words
(If only you would)
(Listen, dear)
You rape my heart
A blessed curse
(To suffer in your)
(Atmosphere)
You rape my heart
And sacrifice
(My emotions)
(To the stars)
You rape my heart
We're sworn to fight
(In our interstellar wars)

In our interstellar wars!
In our interstellar wars!

I'm melting in your heat
In your mouth my lips corrode
As we travel through the gears
And finally explode

(If only you would)
(Listen, dear)
(To suffer in your)
(Atmosphere)

You rape my heart
With wicked words
(If only you would)
(Listen, dear)
You rape my heart
A blessed curse
(To suffer in your)
(Atmosphere)

You rape my heart
With wicked words
(If only you would)
(Listen, dear)
You rape my heart
A blessed curse
(To suffer in your)
(Atmosphere)
You rape my heart
And sacrifice
(My emotions)
(To the stars)
You rape my heart
We're sworn to fight
(In our interstellar wars)

In our interstellar wars!
In our interstellar wars!


8. DOOMSDAY DISCO

Lost in the beat
Forget the terror
Of the chaos outside
There's no ecstasy
Quite like knowing
That we've only tonight
War never sleeps
But this evening
Each new song is a gift
Sing it with me
Come on people
Raise your fist to the riff

We, we are
We are the dancefloor
We are united
We are damned
We, we are
We are the dancefloor
Every stranger
Is a friend

Stay close to me
We'll leave in unity
It's our death right
There's no rhapsody
To match the moment
When our bodies entwined

We, we are
We are the dancefloor
We are united
We are damned
We, we are
We are the dancefloor
Every stranger
Is a friend
We are damned

We'll be together

9. DEATH PENALTY

I break the hearts of those
That live lives drenched in alibis
A lethal overdose
Way too late to moralise

You'll be my sacrifice
So shed your skins for me tonight
This devil's undisguised
We'll kill the pain
Drink, fuck and fight

Swing your hips in carnal lust
My hateful heart craves energy
Kiss my lips and scream for more
On your bended knees
Scream for more
Scream for me
I'll be your death penalty

Swing your hips in carnal lust
My hateful heart craves energy
Kiss my lips and scream for more
I'll be your death penalty

I'll break your heart of gold
I'm sharper than a guillotine
Deception takes its toll
Your final meal is here with me

You'll be my sacrifice
So shed your skins for me tonight
This devil's undisguised
We'll kill the pain
Drink, fuck and fight

Swing your hips in carnal lust
My hateful heart craves energy
Kiss my lips and scream for more
On your bended knees
Scream for more
Scream for me
I'll be your death penalty

I don't know what's wrong
In your head
I don't know why people
Wish me better off dead
All I want is to save mankind
From the ones not willing
To cherish life
I don't know what's wrong
In your head
I don't know why people
Wish me better off dead
All I want is to save mankind
From the ones not willing
To cherish life

You'll be my sacrifice
So shed your skins for me tonight
This devil's undisguised
We'll kill the pain
Drink, fuck and fight

Swing your hips in carnal lust
My hateful heart craves energy
Kiss my lips and scream for more
On your bended knees
Scream for more
Scream for me
I'll be your death penalty

Swing your hips in carnal lust
My hateful heart craves energy
Kiss my lips and scream for more
I'll be your death penalty

I'll be your death penalty
I'll be your death penalty


10. NO GODS, NO WAR

There's precious little time
Before the death knell chimes

We need to escape to
A planet that's safer
A place where there's
Still goodwill
I fear the preacher
More than the reaper
With prophecies fulfilled
If my words offend thee
Hell, just forgive me
Before any blood gets spilt
Don't trust the teacher
Whose lessons beseech you
To suffer from hatred and guilt

Wherever you come from
Wherever you go to
No war is holy
Whatever they tell you
So join me for lift off
4321 Go!

The winds never change
Where the weapons are aimed
No Gods, no war!
The killed and the maimed
Can be 'sinners' or 'saints'
The end is the same
No Gods, no war!

No Gods, no war...

Is there sanctuary
Deep in this galaxy
Where life is an
Act of will
I fear the preacher
More than the reaper
It's sectarian overkill

Wherever you come from
Wherever you go to
No war is holy
Whatever they tell you
So join me for lift off
4321 Go!

The winds never change
Where the weapons are aimed
No Gods, no war!
The killed and the maimed
Can be 'sinners' or 'saints'
The end is the same
No Gods, no war!

Wherever you come from
Wherever you go to
No war is holy
Whatever they tell you
So join me for lift off
4321
4321
4321 Go!

The winds never change
Where the weapons are aimed
No Gods, no war!
The killed and the maimed
Can be 'sinners' or 'saints'
The end is the same
No Gods, no war!
No Gods, no war!


11. THE INTERPLAY OF LIFE AND DEATH

What will remain of us
In a billion years
When the sun explodes
And there are no more fears
When we are dust in space
Who will remember then?
And all the things we've done
And all the selfless men

Just a split second are we
In the interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

Just a split second are we
In the memory of astro-planes
A glimpse of eternity
A grain
Just a split second are we
In the interplay of life and death
A glimpse of eternity
A breath

What will remain of us
In a billion years
When the cosmos overthrows
Is there laughter?
Are there tears?
Will there be a new life
That finds our trace somewhere
And asks who we have been
Will someone really care?

Just a split second are we
In the interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

Just a split second are we
In the memory of astro-planes
A glimpse of eternity
A grain
Just a split second are we
In the interplay of life and death
A glimpse of eternity
A breath

The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

What will remain of us
In a future so far?
Will it be lost
Everything that we are?
What is the sense of it
When we leave no trace?
Is there a masterplan
Behind the depths of space?

The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death

The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death
The interplay of life and death


12. UTOPYA

We came through hate
Hellfire and war
(Viva Utopya)
In search of truth
Not metaphor
(Viva Utopya)
Pure hearts reign supreme
But dreams are only dreams

The bell is ringing

(Hey!)
This must be the place
Where all woes are erased
A fanfare for us as we arrived
(Tyrannicum!)
It feels like we've been blessed
The wistful dispossessed
We knew how lost
We were when we found paradise

We came in peace
But sadly saw
(Viva Utopya)
Perfection is
So cruelly flawed
(Viva Utopya)
In the cold light
The cracks are clear
(Viva Utopya)
This paradise
Becomes austere
(Viva Utopya!)

(Hey!)
This must be the place
Where myths disintegrate
They burnt your journals
And laughed at mine
(Tyrannicum!)
Imprisoned in white robes
The ghost of all our hopes
We count the cost of
Wasting trust on humankind

Pure hearts will still beat
But dreams aren't always sweet

There's nothing saintly here
In this oppressed frontier
At least my love
We know that we tried

The chants are getting loud
The creeping speed of sound
The mob appears
As I dry your eyes
(Tyrannicum!)
We face our destiny
Through strength of memory
The voyage will not end
If our twin spirits fly

(Viva Utopya)


13. WHERE IS ALL THE LOVE

With a blind man's dog
And keep believing
In the truth of war
How much will it take
For you to see
Their will is law
Follow the star parade
And sing their song
They say
'Millions can't be wrong!'
Fake praise for nothing
To make you feel
That you belong

Follow the star
You need a reason to pray
Skeletal teens
Broken by the world each day
The mirror lies
But little less consciousness
Ain't no high price to pay
Follow the advice
Given by your mom and dad
Give nothing away
And take all that you can
If I was God today
I swear you'd suffer by my hand

Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where are you?

Follow your God
Through the opaque mist
Into a Heaven
That doesn't exist
For there's no place
Beyond the stars
Just the abyss
Follow the father
That invented this
Acrid incest
Keeps the world in fear
Weak and repressed
But there's always a Judas
That will kiss
To kill the rest

Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where are you?

Religion is the prison
Denial is belief
Could we share in freedom
If fate slipped you the key
Eternal is the mission
Dividing you and me
Let faith in love be reason
Let those in darkness see

Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where is all the love?
Where are you?


14. ADONAI (BONUS)

(Instrumental)


15. LAMENT FOR THE CONDEMNED (BONUS)

My fingers tingle
A sign that doom is due
An avalanche of anguish
Engulfing me and you

Is this the end or
A brand new misery
The species endangered
Who'll die for liberty?

Stay strong
Rage on and on and on
Stay strong
Rage on and on

In a perfect world
Love leads and peace pursues
In a perfect world
No hopes are abused

Lawless detention
Wires strapped to your head
Memories forbidden
As freedom's for the dead

My fingers obscure
Your grotesque demise
My words of insurgence
Take on a dreadful guise

Stay strong
Rage on and on and on
Stay strong
Rage on and on

In a perfect world
Love leads and peace pursues
In a perfect world
Each tyrant colludes

They let me hold you
But you're not there
They've dimmed the light
Inside your mind
That hallowed soul is elsewhere

I taste the cold truth
Tears in your hair
Unrecognised, my spirit dies
I'll make them pay my dear
I swear

This is a lament
For the condemned
The partisans, the also-rans
And all our fallen fiends
And friends

Oh, I know
The road is hard
On which we roam

In a perfect world
Free from such scum
In a perfect world
We'd still be one

Stay strong
Rage on and on and on
Stay strong
Rage on and on
Stay strong
Rage on and on and on
Stay strong
Rage on and on
And on and on


16. NOW WE ARE THE ALIENS (BONUS)

We're singing those
Old rebel songs
They thought they'd banned
Some fortitude
On our voyage
To unknown lands

I reassure
All her concerns
With little belief
Damaged by life
Nearly spent
Two refugees

Will they welcome us?
We're the aliens

Who knows
Friend or foe?
Arms opened wide
Or fists clenched?
How will they judge us
Now we're the aliens?
I don't know

We pose no threat
For we come with
Peaceful intent
Please focus on
What unifies
Not what's different

Who knows
Friend or foe?
Will they empathise
Or demonise?
Well we're only lowly
Homo sapiens

Will they welcome us?
We're the aliens

Who knows
Friend or foe?
We're the aliens
We're the aliens

Through the tension
I dwell on my failures
She placed her faith in
This empty saviour
Sad, I know...


17. LOST IN OBLIVION (BONUS)

Down as low
As grief alone
I don't care to be
Eulogised, no
Posthumously

The battle cry's
A whisper
Through
Our distress
Mother, love's in vain

A deathly white
Are we alive?
Oh, we are
Lost in oblivion
We've fallen far
Tossed to the stars
So we are
Lost in oblivion

We reminisce
Times that they imposed

Most crawl through
This life
You'd float by like
A duchess
Those 'poets' fled
When the colours
Changed again

A deathly white
Are we alive?
Oh, we are
Lost in oblivion
We've fallen far
Tossed to the stars
So we are
Lost in oblivion

A deathly white
Are we alive?
Oh, we are
Lost in oblivion
We've fallen far
Tossed to the stars
So we are
Lost in oblivion
A deathly white
Are we alive?
Oh, we are
Lost in oblivion
We've fallen far
Tossed to the stars
So we are
Lost in oblivion

The weak all know
The pain is slow
The strong survive but
Wish that they'd died


18. TRAVELLER’S WOUNDS (BONUS)

Recently bereaved
A tourist with no trail
Distant from the sane
That voice repeats a phrase
Does such confusion
Serve to amuse you?
Change this gruesome tune

Talk to a lonesome traveller
Yet there's nobody else in here
The ache of loss is so severe
I shiver in the chromosphere
And Miss Machine found her soulmate
That swine 6942.8
He lasts all night without a break
Her lubricant, my one keepsake

I've witnessed tortures
Lows life should not know
The most hellish place
Lies inside the mind
Do my dellusions
Serve to amuse you?
These traveller's wounds?

In this ocean of emptiness
I sail alone under duress
In my decline I've acquiesced
Madness and guilt did coalesce
Plagued by a visit to the past
An impotent iconoclast
Whose vision of that final dance
Will make a grave for circumstance

Ego is such a reckless beast
An enemy of the deceased
The poisoned soul with no retreat
Turn back, accept you face defeat
Moros has an ambassador
Grieving his lifeless passenger
If you like passions massacred
Talk to the lonesome traveller


19. WISHING ON A SCAR (BONUS)

So, a light the red of lust
Fills sky that we once shared
In alabaster seas
It falls like in despair
The colours permeate
A flag of a fallow land
This is no place to start
To make ambitious plans

Born in need
Spirit weak
(Born in need)
The world we seek
(Spirit weak)
Is obsolete

So, it's true I've killed before
But I cannot again
Some visions stay to haunt
Decisions steeped in shame
Maybe I was brave
To step through the portal
The most heroic souls
Accept we are mortal

Born in need
Spirit weak
(Born in need)
The world we seek
(Spirit weak)
Is obsolete

Believing we're special
The curse of the mind
No defying death
Nor controlling time

Born in need
Spirit weak

(Born in need)
I need to know
How this story goes
But I'm wishing on a scar
Born in need
(Spirit weak)
What tales been told
When the credits roll
And I'm wishing on a scar
Spirit weak
(The world we seek)
I need to know
How this story goes
But I'm wishing on a scar
The world we seek
(Is obsolete)
What tales been told
When the credits roll
And I'm wishing on a scar
Is obsolete

(Born in need)
