You have sought me out
Tonight, to destroy me
Fires are burning high
It’s all out of control
Pain, the flames strike me
So close, searing my flesh
This means war
I’ll fight you all
This means war
I’ll make you fall
Coward! Do you have balls
Enough, to confront me
When you don’t know
When to back off
Veer off your path
or brace yourself for collision
Chorus
Feed the Monster Inside
Don’t raise your voice
Receive, in silence
Turn the other cheek
Get pushed into the ground
Listen to lies
Submit yourself
Empty your glass
And refill it again
Feel their evil stares
And the ferality
Let your tongue be silent
Your opinions irrelevant
Then be subdued
And humiliated
Empty your glass
And refill it again
Feed the monster inside
Death Metal Crusade
Put on your leather jacket
Your armor and your boots
Hundreds marching pair of feet
Tramping down the streets
Our fires and flames
Will light up the night
We’ll never lose the spark
We don’t fumble in the dark
Death metal crusade
Step up and join our army
Put on our black uniform
We fight the world just ’bout ev’ry day
No one and nothing can hold us back
We’re the heavy metal army
Wearing metal boots
Brothers and sisters shouting loud:
Death metal – thrive!
Death metal crusade
Their Doom is Your Boon
Their doom is your boon
Play the victim
Twist the words
Hear but don’t listen
observe through tainted glass
Don’t sit idle
Attack at all angles
Conceptualize hate
Make it your drive
Turn people’s heads
Blindfold them
Then whisper in their ears
Don’t stop ’til you’ve won them over
Always attack from the back
And don’t shy no means
Kick ’em when they’re down
Their pleads, to your ears, is sweet music
Your apostles of hate
Make them follow
And learn from the master
Conspire in shadows
Their doom is your boon
And thrive in disaster
Exploit their weaknesses
Make them doubt themselves
Apply blunt trauma
At the softer tissue
Lead ’em astray
Separate ’em from the pack
Then corner them
Their doom is your boon
Condone and Condemn
It’ll all be revealed in due time
you’ll acquit me of the charges
’cause there was no damn crime
No, there was no damn crime
And the day will come
when it’ll dawn on us all
You were ever really in it
for the amusement of one’s fall
Yes, the day will come
when it’ll dawn on us all
Condone and condemn
My vindication is coming
my acquittal is near
And I will meet your gaze
with a smile on my face
Chorus
It will all
be revealed
in due time
You will acquit me
of the charges
’Cause there was
no damn crime
