Vicious Rumors Welcome To The Ball Lyrics
1.Children

Lyricist:Albert, Howe, Mcgee, Pessis, Thorpe

Children, finish what we started
They may only live in the world we give them
Oh, children, will they be brokenhearted?
They may never know what they're missing

We gotta take it easy, we gotta take it slow
We gotta leave 'em something
Somewhere to go

All the children are the heirs
(Children are the heirs)
Taking what we give them
Will they even care
(Will they even care)
Or will they do what we did?

Children, staring at the ocean
They just want to play in the water, but it's black
We gotta take it easy, we gotta take it slow
We gotta leave 'em something
Somewhere to go

All the children are the heirs
(Children are the heirs)
Taking what we give them
Will they even care
(Will they even care)
Or will they do what we did?

We are all the victims of our heavy hands
Who will make the children understand, yeah?
Make 'em understand

Children are the heirs
(Children are the heirs)
Taking what we give them
Will they even care
(Will they even care)
Or will they do what we did?

Children
They are the ones who'll pay in the long run
Brokenhearted, finish what we started
Oh, children, all our children, oh


2.Abandoned

Lyricist:Albert Carl S, Howe Larry, Mc Gee Mark Jude, Thorpe Geoff
Kane

I'm waiting around, 'cause I haven't got paid yet
I'm banging my head on the side of the pavement
You're turning this into some kind of a freak show
You gotta stop, I'm still waiting

Abandoned again, I thought you were my friend
Abandoned again, I thought you were my friend
But you abandoned me again

You're flying your colors for all to see
You're fooling your friends but you ain't fooling me, no
You closed the door and shut me out
What the hell ya' think I'm talking about?

Abandoned again, I thought you were my friend
Abandoned, so what? Knife in my gut, no love is lost
Out of the gray, just go away, away

I've heard it all, enough of your bullshit
About your mouth, it's time you closed it
You've burned all your bridges, there's nobody left

Abandoned again, I thought you were my friend
Abandoned again, I thought you were my friend
But you abandoned me again

Abandoned again, abandoned, abandoned
Abandoned


3.When Love Comes Down

Lyricist:Albert Carl S, Howe Larry, Mc Gee Mark Jude, Starr David
Karl, Thorpe Geoff Kane

I should have seen it in your eyes
The feelings trapped inside
You kept it hidden, oh, so well
All the pain you must have felt

I tried to tell you on the phone yesterday
I wanna be there for you now

I'll be there
When love comes down
Alone no more

We're just strangers in the night
That drift away
Reach out, come on, babe
Won't you reach out, take my hand?
We'll never drift away again

Just like I tell you on the phone everyday
I wanna be there for you now

I'll be there
When love comes down
Alone no more
When love comes down

Don't you know that you're a part of me?
And this you can't deny
'Cause when we kiss, we just can't hide

Just look in my eyes
Take me away

When love comes down
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run
We can go to the other side
When love comes down
Got to have your lovin', oh

When love comes down
I'll be there, you know I will
When love comes down
(Got to have love, got to have love)
(Got to have your love, baby)


4.You Only Live Twice

So many ways to get lost in the haze,
So many choices to make
Whatever you choose
You've got something to lose
And you don't want to make a mistake.
Time passes by in the blink of an eye
And you've hardly the time to think clear
With time running out and the end drawing near,
I will fight for what's right while I'm here
You only live twice,
The story never ends,
You only live twice.
The ignorant youth keep ignoring the truth,
Running blind even though they can see.
Just like the old, growing heartless and cold,
losing touch with their reason to be.
Living the part, coming right from the heart,
All a piece of the puzzle of life.
Plotting a course that could end in remorse,
Seems as though it was all meant to be.
You only live twice,
The story never ends,
You only live twice.
Now out of time, it's the end of the line,
and the light at the end now is clear.
So when it unfolds and the story is told,
Be ready to face all of your fears.
Time passes by in the blink of an eye
And you've hardly the time to think clear
With time running out and the end drawing near,
I will fight for what's right while I'm here
You only live twice,
The story never ends,
You only live twice.


5.Savior From Anger

Hate is a killer in a breeding frenzy
Growing faster, becoming deadly
Wake up, together, come on fight the beast
Tyrant control in the Middle East

Poison, power, driven by fury
Digital dictator, blackened expropriator
Deliver us from evil, save the people
Contagion of hatred must be eliminated

Savior
Save us from anger
Put to the test
Will we ever know?

The hunter, an animal without emotion
Mechanical destruction, methodical corruption
Wake up, can't you see the peace and harmony
Is there if you want it

Savior
Save us from anger
Put to the test
Will we ever know?

Savior
Save us from anger
Put to the test
Will we ever know?

Savior
Save us from anger
Put to the test
Will we ever know?


6.Dust To Dust

The hands of time have brought you here
It's a long hard road to burn
The hidden fire of life
Has come unturned

The river runs, you've just begun
To set a course to nevermore
Lay down your tracks
Upon the shore

Moving on from dusk and dawn
Passing by the years
It's dust to dust
For you, my friend from here

Living in the planet's web
It can take you down anywhere you tread
Emotions in motion, paving the way
Trying to make it through another day

Your soul is caged, you can't deny
You never know when your time lies
You're here and gone like all the rest
Walking the line between life and death

Moving on from dusk and dawn
Passing by the years
Dust to dust
For you, my friend, is near

Moving on from dusk and dawn
Passing by the years
Dust to dust
For you, my friend, is here

Dust to dust
For you, my friend, is here


7.Raise Your Hands

Remembering those years, emotions so black
They're cracking the whip, you yearn to strike back
Days filled with anger and nights filled with pain
They'll pay the price for their worthless games

Raise your hands
(Raise your hands)
Take a stand, you'll be free
A new world planned
Fight for your lives, make them see

Driven by hatred, a passion so dear
The nighttime is stirring, the new world is near
The morning awakens revenge in their eyes
To tear down those visions of years gone by

Racing like demons, we move into fight
The onslaught is breathing with muscle and might
Bashing and crashing, the battle hymn roars
Roaring like thunder, right to the core

Raise your hands
(Raise your hands)
Lay down your life to be free
The new world stands
(Raise your hands)
Screaming out equality

Driven by hatred, a passion so dear
The morning awakened, the new world is here
You've paid the price for your worthless games
Reach out your hands and take hold of the reins

Raise your hands
(Raise your hands)
We've taken a stand to be free
A new world stands
(Raise your hands)
Screaming out equality

Driven by hatred, a passion so dear
The morning awakened, the new world is here
You've paid the price for your worthless games
Reach out your hands, take hold of the reins


8.Strange Behavior

Yesterday was so long ago.
The sun's coming up again.
And the bottle that we drank so slow
Part of no master plan.
Hey, it's that time again,
To pay with your flesh,
And you looking down on me,
Now time for you to see.
(Strange) Strange behavior
Coming over me again.
(Strange) Strange behavior
That's just me and my friends.
What I do and what I say
Well baby, that's my choice.
And I choose to be free.
Can you hear my voice?
Hey, it's that time again,
To pay with your flesh,
And you looking down on me,
Now time for you to see.
(Strange) Strange behavior
Coming over me again.
(Strange) Strange behavior
That's just me and my friends.


9.Six Stepsisters

Oh those girls just wanted to play.
All in one body, they drive me insane.
Never encountered a love so cold.
Over and over and over they go.
I couldn't take her screaming like that.
Six tortured souls in one body trapped.
They fight to control the tought of one brain.
Blood-thirsty kin one in the game
Six stepsisters play the game.
Two in the night, two by day.
One says she loves me, one wants to kill me.
I've never felt a feeling like that.
The sex is so dirty, I like it like that.
Three at one time, one's on the floor.
The two that are lovers they always want more.
I couldn't take her screaming like that.
Six tortured souls in one body trapped.
Blood-thirsty kin one in the same.
Lying there bleeding, calling my name
Six stepsisters play the game.
Two in the night, two by day.
One says she loves me, one wants to kill me.
The things we've done --- Six times the fun.
I couldn't take her screaming like that.
Six tortured souls in one body trapped.
They fight to control the tought of one brain.
Blood-thirsty kin one in the game
Six stepsisters play the game.
Two in the night, two by day.
One says she loves me, one wants to kill me.
Six sick little sisters all in one brain.
Oh it ain't so bad!


10.Mastermind

Blind leading the blind,
Indolent nation, stagnation, they lay in repose,
Silently cursing the lives that they chose.
Planet of remote control,
Automation will breed indignation -- a matter of time.
Nothing for you to decide.
No more reasons to think for yourself anymore.
It's under control.
Mastermind
Will choose and decide for you.
Not one thing
Left for your brain to do.
Wake up toughtless again,
Mindlessly glance at the paper that's already read,
Searching for something to fill the void in my head.
I look around only to find
The essence of life has been taken away from mankind,
Leaving our life blood behind.
No more reasons to think for yourself anymore.
What am I for, tell me.
Mastermind
Will choose and decide for you.
Not one thing
Left for your brain to do, it's wasting away.
It's okay, better off this way.
Having all your choices made.
No mistakes, no room for error.
Life without life, the ultimate terror.
Mastermind
Will choose and decide for you.
Not one thing
Left for your brain to do.
Mastermind
Will choose and decide for you.
Mastermind, please,
would you do away with me too?


11.Ends Of The Earth

Ever since you can remember,
As far back as your memory will go,
Life has been nothing but fear, haunted.
Nowhere to run,
Got to find a way out of this place.
Back to the wall, no way out.
Is this the end of the chase?
No, no, I won't give up 'til I fall.
If i have to run to the ends of the Earth
I'll be damned if I'll crawl.
Like an animal,
Living in constant unrest,
Watching each step that you take,
Hoping it won't be your last.
Nowhere to hide:
Searching for some place to go,
Living each day just moments away,
Fearing what destiny holds.
No, no, I won't give up 'til I fall.
If i have to run to the ends of the Earth
I'll be damned if I'll crawl.
Hot on your heels,
Dancing with life on the edge,
Hot breath on the back of your neck,
Learn how the kiss of death feels.
How your head reels,
Footsteps away from the end.
I can't go on anymore.
Give me the strength, give me the will.
No, no, I won't give up 'til I fall.
If i have to run to the ends of the Earth
I'll be damned if I'll crawl.
No, no, I won't give up 'til I fall.
If I have to run to the ends of the Earth
There I will stand tall.
