Low
Music : Peterson Lyrics : Billy Time : 3:33 
 

Fuel the fire for war 
It´s man against mankind 
Bruises that they bear 
Been beaten down with time 

Innocent people suffer the loss 
Your broken hope so close to the cross 
Sometimes you just don´t know 
How low... how low you can, go... 
So low it´s sickening 
Low... Low... show some mercy... 

Hey you piece of shit 
Just leave the kids alone 
Why can´t you bear 
The things that we endure 

Innocent people suffer the loss 
Lost hope with faith ti the cross 
Sometimes you just don´t know 
How low... How low you can go 
Show some sympathy 
Low... Low... show some mercy 

I don´t like you for your warped demented ways 
I hope they lock you down so you never get away 
Low... Low... show some sympathy 
Low... Low.. show some mercy... 
 
 

Hail Mary
Music : Peterson, Murphy Lyrics : Billy, James Time : 3:32 
 

I am alive 
I feel dirt in my eyes 
There´s no escape when redemption is lost 
I´m not a saint 
There´s no use looking 
No sins to deny 
Just my will to go on 

Arms of darkness 
Embrace me in madness 
In my life it´s mandatory 
Hard to resist you 
I still can´t forgive you 
For sins that I cannot wash away 

Hail Mary full of grace 
Throw some light upon this race 
Intertwining final breath 
Now... in the hour of death 

Bound by lies 
Of constant denial 
Pay for my sins that I bear for a child 
I´m not a saint 
There´s no use denying 
Falling from grace 
Is my reason to go on 

Hail Mary full of grace 
Push me down, and kick me in my face 
Intertwining final breath 
Now... in the hour of death 
 
 

Shades Of War
Music : Peterson Lyrics : Billy, James Time : 4:40 
 

Burial of a human being 
A man before a boy 
Born to fight in another man´s world 
Not a world where there´s war 

Born religiously 
Truth is what they see 
Death won´t come from peace 
Who fuels this war? 

Sacred ground of life 
Burnt remains of the dead 
Bodies lay to rest 
Spirits of the earth 

Rancid man, burned alive 
Too blind to see what´s wrong from right 
Locked inside this cage 
So many times blood has poured 
Walk with shadows 
Hear the shades of war... forever more 

Brought into this world of bitter pain 
Are we safe... or just insane 

Rancid man, burned alive 
Too blind to see what´s wrong from right 
Darkness veils their way 
So many times blood has poured 
Walk with shadows 
Hear the shades of war... forever more 
 
 

Dog Faced Gods
Music : Peterson Lyrics : Peterson, Billy, James Time : 4:02 
 

Of dog faced gods 
Through the Nile sands whisper 
Of ancient times, mayfly names 
Flickered and gone 

The blood and honey 
Dripping from their jaws 
Through the Nile sand whisper 
Ancient times, fade into the dawn 

Of dog faced gods 
Manifest in the night 
The sacred rights 
Handed down through times of old 

Dark words of power 
Blood upon their tombs 
Through incantations 
Locusts fly, signaling doom 

Confirm who I am 
Contort all I can 
Conceive sorcery 
Corrodes disbelief 

Of dog faced gods 
Dead civilization 
Through priest of power 
Invoking life of the ancient one 

The blood and honey 
Dripping from their jaws 
Through the Nile sand whisper 
Travel through time to the land unknown 

Confirm who I am 
Contort all I can 
Conceive sorcery 
Corrodes disbelief

Ride
Music : Peterson Lyrics : Billy, James Time : 3:06 
 

Doesn´t know what to do anymore 
Jesus makes love to the spike 
A trick for a fix and feeling so sick 
Just can´t seem to get right 

Once he was the king of his world 
A world without any order 
Sold it all without thinking twice 
Just for a spoonful of water 

Ride, ride on through 
Ride, ride through you 
Ride, ride on through 
Ride, ride through you 

Ceremonious ritual 
Raising of the veins 
Always early and feeling so late 
Waving good-bye to the train 

Ride, ride on through 
Ride, ride through you 
Ride, ride on through 
Ride, ride through you 

Slowly scratching away at the world 
Fearless when he is stoned 
Obsessed by the dreams of what could´ve been 
Trapped in his kingdom alone 

Ride, ride on through 
Ride, ride through you 
Ride, ride on through 
Ride, ride through you 
 
 
 

Last Call
Music : Peterson, Christian Time :2:40 
 

[instrumental]

Legions (In Hiding)
Music : Peterson Lyrics : Billy, James Time : 4:17 
 

Domestically violent 
With razor blade smiles 
A two faced role model fool 
Infested with anger 
A well hidden crime 
Teaching those lessons so cruel 

Ha, torment spreads 
War inside my head 
Please just set me free 
You call this... a family? 

Battered, abusive 
There's no wrong or right 
When you're enslaved in your room 
Hiding from demons 
In urban daylight 
Knowing that they´ll be here soon 

Confusion and bruises 
And scars left for life 
When physical evidence fades 
Silently screaming 
Just to be loved 
Their innocence taken away 

Ah, the torment spreads 
War inside my head 
Please just set me free 
You call this... a family? 

Virtues are shattered 
By parents they trust 
When all love they give is misused 
The next generation 
The damaged will learn 
To keep spinning wheels of abuse 

Ah, the torment spreads 
War inside my head 
Please just set me free 
You call this... a family? 
 
 

Trail Of Tears
Music : Peterson Lyrics : Billy Time : 6:06 
 

See the sun as the day is done 
Life is of the broken ones 
Some will stray as time will come 

All their lives, they live it well 
Red man proud and giving hell 
Some stand and shining tall 

Can you hear them call... 

See the sun as it´s setting still 
Tears fall from a warrior 
Damn those who I feel 

Set a trail to the promised land 
Mother and child holding hand in hand 
Through the snow or through the sands 

All across the land... 

Full moon´s rising from the sky, a warrior´s riding 
Ride with the wind 
So far away, the spirits will guide you 
No more sorrow 
Don´t look back 
your freedom will follow 
Flying so free 
Can´t you see... on the trail of tears 

Full moon´s rising from the sky 
a warrior´s riding 
Ride with the wind 
So far away, the spirits will guide you 
No more sorrow 
Don´t look back, your freedom will follow 
Flying so free 
Can´t you see... on the trail of tears 
 

P.C.
Music : Christian, Peterson Lyrics : Christian Time : 2:50 
 

Damn the machine the system´s corrupted 
Abusive power in everywhere 
Our elected officials, pass laws to help 
But who´s paying them off 
And in the end, we the people pay 
Such a heavy price, just for being alive 

And if this country was really free 
We´d make paper from hemp and let the forest live 
But corporate America, and billion dollar industries 
Have so much power 
Yet they stand to lose 
Too much fucking money 
There´s nothing we can do... but... 

Take back all that we´ve lost 
At any price that it costs 
Our freedom was worth fighting for 
Resistance now or nevermore 

And what about the CIA 
What the fuck is their real job anyway 
Starting civil wars in Third World countries 
Importing heroin from the far east 
Talk about cocaine, neither kept away 
From the youth of today... now 
There´s nothing we can do... but... 

Take back all that we´ve lost 
At any price that it costs 
Our freedom was worth fighting for 
Resistance now or nevermore 
 

All I Could Bleed
Music : Peterson Lyrics : Billy Time : 3:37 
 

I like to dominate 
I create your fate 
Many years gone by 
I rule society 
You cannot be me 
I am the master 

Can´t you hear me, breathing for you 
Do not ignore 
Reach out to me, put your knife through me 
Watch me bleed for you... yeah... right... 

Try to retaliate 
I release your hate 
Why don´t you bleed for me 
What do you need to prove 
I can see through you 
You´re not the master 

Can´t you see me, dying for you 
Do not ignore 
Reach out to me, put your knife through me 
Watch me bleed for you... dying... dying... 
All I could bleed 

Can´t you understand 
Grab life by the hand 
Where´s the democracy 
I gave all I could bleed 

Fuck government policy 
Land is of the free 
Don´t take away 
Your two bit society 
Dying for your greed 
Now watch them bleed... 
Yeah... all I could bleed 
 

Chasing Fear
Music : Peterson, Christian Lyrics : Billy, James Time : 4:56 
 

Paralyzed 
And never coming back 
Even when your eyes are open 
Everything turns to black 
Soon forgotten senses 
Incubates the soul 
Hiding from the light fantastic 
Waiting for the show 

Contemplation 
Reality starts to fade 
Creeping stare behind dead eyes 
As the minutes burn the day 
Inactive wandering 
Still can´t get a grip 
Can God hear you cry 
Before you start to slip 

Chasing Fear 
Human mind unglued 
Unaware 
That fear is chasing you 

Endless waiting 
For nothing to appear 
Even when your eyes are shut 
The visions are so clear 
Harmonious dissidence 
Obscure reckoning 
Did you hear that final note 
Of silent suffering 

Chasing fear 
Human mind unglued 
Disappear 
The sickness inside of you 
Chasing fear 
Nothing you can do 
Unaware 
That fear is chasing you 

Loss of function 
Withering of the will 
Condemned to a state of nothing 
Moving in for the kill 
Brain cells slowly boil 
With memories intertwined 
Listening to that empty space 
Atrophy of the mind 
Chasing fear 
Human mind unglued 
Disappear 
The sickness inside of you 
Chasing fear 
Nothing you can do 
Unaware that fear is chasing you
