Only for a moment
Take a step outside your place, and own it
What do you hear?
Can you hear the silence?
And the blood pumping in your veins?
The void is violence
And the echoes of your pain
"I am real!
No different,
So why do I feel
So insignificant?"
'Cause I got demons out here prowling at my door
And every day I feel their influence (can't take much more)
I got demons out here prowling at my door
Well, out there is the border line
Between a garish nightmare and your design
You say:
"I don't care if I'm better off dead
I don't want you mucking with my..." (I don't want you mucking with my head)
Head down, the war is on
The fire won't stop 'til you're dead and gone
And they'll ask you, while they watch you fight
Why don't you stay inside?
'Cause I got demons out here prowling at my door
And every day I feel their influence (can't take much more)
I got demons out here prowling at my door, yeah
(You Are A Hate Machine)

SET / FAILURE

(Going up, your ego blowing up,
But you can bet it's frail, you're
Set for Failure
Going up, you think you're good enough
But your body's frail, you're
Set for Failure)
You reserve the right
To ignore the light
Do you really wanna know?
You built yourself a wall
In fear that it would fall
Are you where you wanna go?
You break it down
Break it down
Break down
Down
Going up, your ego blowing up,
But you can bet it's frail, you're
Set for Failure
Going up, you think you're good enough
But your body's frail, you're
Set for Failure
I got demons out here prowling at my door
You and I we're in this jail together
We were set for failure
Now I took my life into my hands
It's only fair to say we're
Hanging by a thread
Our love is frail
You set us up to fail
And I,
I feel alone

DREAMS DISPELLED

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO ESCAPE A NIGHTMARE?
OPEN YOUR EYES
Dreams dispelled
How can you face another day?
This is Hell
To know the edge is one wrong step away
To be the one about to fall
To be the one behind it all
They all say
God gave you wings for you to fly
But they won't stay
'Cause no one's ever shown them what it's like
And they won't ever try
To be the one inside these walls
To be the one behind it all
(What, are you giving up already?
I don't even think I can hear you anymore
You're gonna have to speak a little louder
I said, you're gonna have to speak a little louder - )
To be the one inside these walls
To be the one behind it all
Don't you let it die
Don't you let it die
Don't you let it die, don't leave it up to time
Don't you let it die
(Don't you let it die) x2
Don't you let it die
No, don't you let it die
Open your eyes
It's all a lie
Open your eyes
You can fly
Don't let it die

For whom do the twenty-one cannons fire?
They fire for you
(2 5 2)
Death row
Young men damned to Hell
Heads roll
I see you looking like a poor old dog
Who's about to be euthanized
Well you're in luck, here's a fighting chance
To be eternally recognized
You can't even afford to live
But you can afford to die
Just sign here, on the dotted line
And kiss your troubled life goodbye
But for whom do the twenty-one cannons fire?
Father, for whom do the twenty-one cannons fire?
They fire for you
(3 2 1)
Your life is
Forfeit
Go
[Narration]
We got demons out there
Prowling at our door
(2 4 3)
Dead eyes
Go forth and die
Two four three
Gone
