SONG LYRICS & CHORDS (M)

Mad Butcher / A fire is burning in his eyes / His brain is in war and the evil will rise...

Praetorians reborn, relentless spiral of death / Armored spearhead / Time of trial, circle of fire...

In the gothic splendor of the chapel of St. Menceslaus / Golden door with seven locks / Seven keys within your hand...

Plague upon plague / Black boil redemption / On this sea of rats shall I set my throne...

Manchester, Apollo 13th October 1981 / 01 - Swords and tequila / 02 - Fire down under...

Free choices always had the chance / To play the music you like true and faithful / You support this sound and rhythm...

Free choices always had the chance / To play the music you like true and faithful / You support this sound and rhythm...

Behind closed doors, all you live for is taking / That double life of yours, has left your whole world shaking / Who are you fooling?...

Welcome to an empty fortress / A mighty wreck that once was proud / Ate alive by oxidation...

No one hears a word I say / And my prayers are never answered / But you’ll never see the pain inside of me...

An iron fist quietly sits inside the velvet glove / Take control, untouchable, just like God above / I can’t escape wrapped in red tape, what will become of me?...

Responsibility, an anchor around my neck / Dependability, made me a nervous wreck / Accountability, I live from check to check...

The tides of change pulled us apart, I feel a familiar pain / It seems like years since we’ve loved or even liked and that’s a lonely way to be / Drifting alone in a sea of agony, your face I can’t recognize...

You give up on yourself / Somehow you got betrayed again / Thin ice and luck runs out...

Two hearts that shouldn’t talk to each other, become close / In a town much like a prison cell / People speak our names on the street in hushed tones...

Each day my shortcomings pick my pockets / My faults were letters carved in stone / As meaningful to you as words written in water...

One man, speaking the truth, no one likes when it fits / So we tell soothing lies and betray our own lips / The uncivilized world and its people decay...

Let me introduce myself, I’m a social disease / I’ve come for your wealth, leave you on your knees / No time for feeling sorry, I got here on my own...

Once so pure and bright / Today caught in a endless night / Once it was freedom around...

Let me introduce myself I'm a social disease / I've come for your wealth leave you on your knees / No time for feeling sorry, I got here on my own...

Don't remember where I was / I realized life was a game / The more seriously I took things...

You give up on yourself / Somehow you got betrayed agin / Thin ice and luck runs out...

Welcome to our fortress tall / Take some time to show you around / Impossible to break these walls...

Welcome to an empty fortress / A mighty wreck that once was proud / Ate alive by oxidation...

A cockroach in the concrete, courthouse tan and beady eyes / A slouch with fallen arches, purging truths into great lies / A little man with a big eraser, changing history...

I lied just a little / When I said I need you / You stretched the truth...

The tides of change pulled us apart / I feel a familiar pain / It seems like years since we've loved...

Imagine you were at my station / And you brought your motor to me / Your a burner yeah a real motor car...

This morning I made the call / The one that ends it all / Hanging up, I wanted to cry...

People have round shoulders from fairing heavy loads / And the soldiers liberate them, laying mines along their roads / Sorrow paid for valor is too much to recall...
