1. Helpless

(Originally recorded by Diamond Head)

I gotta see you moving fast
See you come my way
See the dreams, I hope they last
Never fade away.

Gotta see the lights above
Make it loud tonight
Gotta set it all a-fire
Set it all a-light

See the flashing lights
Hear the thunder roar
I am gonna set you all a-light
Gotta make it man
I ain't got a choice
Gotta fill this hall tonight

Helpless
Helpless
Helpless
Helpless

I don't know what I'm gonna do
Maybe not tonight
Gotta set you all a-fire
Gotta treat you right.

I can see the flashing lights
Lit before your love
Gotta hear the thunder roar
Coming from above.

See the flashing lights
Hear the thunder roar
I'm gonna set you all a-light
Gotta make it man
I ain't got a choice
Gotta fill this hall tonight

Helpless
Helpless
Helpless
Helpless

I can see the stars
But, I can't see what's going on
Every night alone
I sing my song just for fun.

Only time will tell
If I'll make it myself someday
This stage is mine
Music is my destiny.

Cannot squeeze the life from me!

I can see the stars
But I can't see what's going on
Every night alone
I sing my song just for fun.

Only time will tell
If I'll make it myself someday
This stage is mine
Music is my destiny.

Cannot squeeze the life from me!

2. The Small Hours

(Originally recorded by Holocaust)

Look hard at the darkness
And you will see
Just call my name and I'll be there

You cannot touch me
You would not dare
I am the chill that's in the air

And I try to get through to you
In my own special way
As the barriers crumble
At the end of the day

Dark rivers are flowing
Back into the past
You are the fish for which I cast

And what of the future
What is to be
As the rivers flow into the sea

And I try to get through to you
In my own special way
As the barriers crumble
At the end of the day

Do not take for granted
Powers out there
Don't step into the demon's lair

Time is an illusion,
Rising from time,
Steep is the mountain which we climb.

And I try to get through to you,
In my own special way,
As the barriers crumble,
At the end of the day.

3. The Wait

(Originally recorded by Killing Joke)

Motives changing
Day to day
The fire increases
Masks decay
I look at the river
White foam floats down
The body's poisoned
Got to sit tight

The wait
The wait
The wait
The wait

After awakening
The silence grows
The screams subside
Distortion shows
Mutant thoughts
Of bad mouthed news
It's just another birth
Of distorted views

The wait
The wait
The wait
The wait

The wait
The wait
The wait
The wait

4. Crash Course In Brain Surgery

(Originally recorded by Budgie)

Look inside and you will see
The words are cutting deep inside my brain
Thunder burnin' quickly burning
Knife of words is driving me insane, insane yeah

Raven black is on my track
He shows me how to neutralize the knife
Show to me in surgery
The art of fighting words to conquer life, conquer Life yeah

Now the wicked lance of fear
Is driving from my heady mountain brain
Crash course in brain surgery
Has stopped the bloody knife of words again yeah, Yeah, yeah

5. Last Caress/Green Hell

(Medley of 2 Misfits songs)

I got something to say
I killed your baby today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as it's dead

I got something to say
I raped your mother today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as she's spread

True lovely death
Just waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress

True lovely death
Just waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress

I got something to say
I killed your baby today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as it's dead

True lovely death
Just waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress
Last caress today

Here in this place lies the genie of death
Touch it, see it
Whoa

Here in this place is a means to your end
Touch it, feel it
Green hell

You've come to this like no one could
I bet you never knew you woke it
And don't you run away from it
I bet you thought you really could

We're gonna burn in Hell
Green hell
Like every hell but kind of green
In Hell, green hell
We're gonna face the mess we're
In Hell, green hell
I think I'd rather be up here
In Hell, green hell
You know I fuckin' shake apart
In Hell, green hell
Gotta find a way that you will stay
Green hell
Cannot forget about the heat
In Hell, green hell
Hell is green I need a flame
In Hell, green hell
Gonna burn in Hell
Green hell

You've come to this like no one could
I bet you never knew you woke it
And don't you run from it
I bet you thought you really could

Here in this place lies the genie of death
Touch it, see it
Whoa

Here in this place is the way to your end
Touch it, see it
Green hell

You've come to this like no one could
I bet you never knew you woke it
And don't you run away from it
I bet you thought you really could
You've come to this like no one could
I bet you never knew you woke it
We're gonna burn in Hell
Green hell
