Infernal 03:15
Looking to the west and the sun's getting dim. I get a feeling like I'm slowly shrinking. Looking to the east and there's nothing. And in my stomach there's a sinking feeling. I try to tell myself, but there's no use. I'm just a glutton for the world's abuse. I'm sick and tired baby, don't you doubt it. It's about time that I did something about it. They say that idle hands, they are the devil's playground. I'm trying hard to keep the past behind me. In everything I see, in every single sound, I feel the strength of that demon inside me. I feel it coming, man, the end is near. I see the darkness and it's crystal clear that pretty soon will come a day: a final judgment when you all will pay! Don't try to stop me, baby. Don't fuckin' stop me. Can't fucking stop me, baby; There's no use!

Well, some things last forever and others, they were never. Like our love. Do you call that love? Skin deep love! Well, for you my heart was beatin' but instead I found you cheatin' That's not love! Forget your love! Skin deep love! Apologies can't mend it, so I cut it off and sent it to you, love. Take that love! Skin deep love! Will I learn my lesson? NEVER! It's not like these things last forever. Fuck you, love! Forget your love! Skin deep love!

Die Alone 02:56
Can you please show me the way out? Rumor has it, there's an exit door. I keep falling, but there is no doubt: In this life we all need something more. Something more! We all di-i-ie alone When we die, we all die alone! On my hands and knees, lost in the dark. No direction and no will to fight. The only sound's the beating of my heart as I slip into this endless night. Where I sleep Eternally We all... From this mortal shell I am released. I've crossed over to the other side. Finally I rest and I'm at peace as I bid this ugly world goodbye. Good-bye... We all...

Well, Dante's got a pair of damnation ice skates He's going across a blood frozen lake. Oh, where are all the venomous assassin snakes And scorpions? Well, they're trying to hibernate Cuz it's cold down here It's Freezing down here Gimme a boiling beer Cuz it's cold down here Something down in Hell has gone totally wrong That's why the demons sing the Hell frozen over song A polar bear's eating off Cerberus's three heads Cleopatra's getting naked and she's starting to shed Into a hot tub of hot tar and boiling flesh While icicles stab Minos in his judgmental chest Cuz it's cold... Attila the Hun is in igloos of human skulls Charon's suckin' a heresy ice popsicle Orpheus plays a show on the river Styx He wrote the devil a song and it went like this It's cold down here...

Wouldn't ever have me no fuckin' way well, look at you babe you're with me here today oh baby! yeah yeah yeah, baby! if I can't have you alive then, baby, I'll have you dead I've got knuckles of brass and a knife with a switch I'm known around the town as a son of a bitch oh baby... Oh well, the sun in the sky and the moon up above they don't understand what I call love Well I'm breaking through windows knocking down doors just to make you mine baby and make me yours well 1 and 1 is 2 and 2 is 2 is 4 well, you won't be saying "No" to me anymore oh baby... Well, the sun in the sky and the moon up above they don't condone what I call love well I'm a-diggin' long and hard in the cold, dark night just to hold you baby and squeeze you tight Well you wouldn't ever have me...

Black Night 02:26
black night, dark sky choke away the darkness like the light left in her eyes dead still, fire bright sure as hell i won't be leaving here without a fight take a look at me, my brother tell me what you see a soul as black as coal, a shadow of what's left of me tell me all you know and, boy, i'll tell you all I've learned, but i'll never bow to those who'll take what i have earned dead still, dark night they try to convince me but i'll never see the light cold cell, church spires could tell you that i'm sorry but i ain't no fuckin liar well, take a look at me...

Shimmy-shimmy-shakin' on the bedroom floor I heard a knock-knock-knockin' up upon the door Nobody called the medics, they'd just arrived That's when I told em no one makes it out alive He was shakin' Yeaahh shakin' Sh-sh Shakin, doin' the Death Rattle and Roll. Twist baby once Shake baby twice Die already baby rigor mortis feels so nice He was shakin' Yeaahh shakin' Sh-sh Shakin, doin' the Death Rattle and Roll. The way you love me baby gives me such a thrill But then I just can't help the sudden urge to kill When I tell you baby that I love you to death We'll be shakin' baby til you're takin' your last breath.

Radium Girls 01:42
brand new booming industry turn of a new century gives off an unearthly glow consequences we don't know atomic number 88 feeling ill and dropping weight rotten teeth and bleeding gums could it be the radium?!?! painting lips and tracing lines painting watch dials: out of time anemic blood, it leaves me drained splitting migraines wreck my brain eyes sunk sallow, bones gone soft half my face has fallen off ill effects from damage done: prolonged exposure...RADIUM!!!

Nothing Left 02:43
Time passes by We're all set in our ways and Nothing changes, but we've seen better days I drain the bottle, but it don't fill me up inside There's nothing left, left to my life. By now I've learned that no one's innocent and We're just searching to find our medicine Ain't no cure, ain't no cure to what I feel There's nothing left and there's nothing real. I can't change, even though I tried I let you down, left you there to cry Ain't no point waiting, ain't no point waiting up for me Just leave me here, here in misery.

In '68, pirates were invading in Vietman Making the war more violent than it ever was But Team Wet Stalker had a plan to make them go away; Operation 44: Fear of the Morays They would train morays like you would train a dolphin Where to jump and where to be biting Day of the mission, sent them up to enemy boat above In go the morays, out comes the blood In '84 a millionaire he made a beach resort Beautiful bikini girls and swim up bars, of course Wait, the water's turning red! Someone dropped a bloody mary! No it's just a severed corpse caused by the morays

Laid To Rest 02:10
Another stormy day turns into stormy night another lifetime under ultraviolent light tears and bloody rain trickle down my broken face and I cannot wash the memory of you out of this place and I'm slowly losing pace Cuz, there's no hell way down below us there's no heaven up above this whole world, it doesn't know it's laid to rest, just like our love I was your chosen one, I was your morning star I battled long and hard, I traveled wide and far don't you worry, don't you cry, no don't you make a sound you'll be mine forever baby, buried six feet underground never ever to be found Cuz there's no hell... There's no heaven down below us It's all hell here up above this whole world it doesn't know it's laid to rest, just like our love
