OVERKILL LYRICS

1. Time To Kill


violent indecision, surge of mass religion
let me out of prison
I'm just killing time
every time I turn around
I start to hear familiar sound
counting down as time stands still
yes I think it's time to kill

time to kill

all the mental anguish
speaks a common language
I have yet to lavisha chance to walk away
every time I turn around
I start to hear a familiar sound
counting down as time stands still
yes I think it's time to kill

unknowing, unseeing
revelations unfold before your eyes
relenting, repenting.
no time to think or compromise
time falling, time calling
into a vord and seal the past
you're waiting, annihilating,
making it real, making it last
worn out compromises
must be out of rises
see through all the lies
we don't walk away
every time we turn around
start to hear that familiar sound
new beginnings time stands still
yes I think it's time to kill.


2. Elimination


terminal, what disease
told me too late
what's this cough and wheeze
fatal, you're shittin' me
a second opinion
is what I need
laughin' in a windstorm
blowin' all the cornstalks down
cryin' in a funeral home
forward my mail, six feet underground

elimination

contagious, say why not
not just me
waitin' to rot
painful, yeah I know
it couldn't be easy
when I had to go
I'm yankin' on my plug
and I can't seem to get it loose
pullin' all the stops
your ideals change. when you got
nothing to loose.

elimination
eliminate the right
eliminate the wrong
eliminate the weak
eliminate the strong
eliminate your feelings
eliminate too late
eliminate the hope
eliminate, eliminate

if I had just one more day
I'd turn it all around
I'd make a play of good, clean livin'
and dig me out of the ground
and if I had just one more day
I'd say it to your face
pull the plug on everyone
eliminate this race.
we want to cure
and we want it now.
reissue hope
we don't eare how
you're makin' a mess
diseasin' a nation
runaway train to elimination

hopeless there's no doubt
set on a slow burn
from the inside out
carefully say what for
last one out
closes the coffin door
spendin' all you saved
and wishin' for a little more
if I'm lookin' at the ceilin'
then I must be layin' on the floor.

terminal, what disease
told me too late
what's this cough and wheeze
fatal... you're shittin' me
a second opinion
there's gotta be
laughin' at the epidemic
something is going around
crying at the epidemic
pullin' on nails, six feet underground.


3. I Hate


So much trouble
Hate this job
Tried to get out
Trapped like a dog
No, I don't like
Pumpin' gas
Do ya hate to wait?

Life's a game
We play your rules
Bottle half empty
Or the bottle half full
It does no good
No good to shout
But I scream I hate

Say I'm hostile
Gotta relax
Gotta get a grip
Here's the facts
I hate bein' here

I hate people that make you feel small
I hate having my back against the wall
You know, I hate being talked down to

I hate your rules
I hate 'em all
Hate being marked to take the fall

Planet's not big enough for me and you

So much trouble
Over me
Surrounded by jerks
Can't ya see?
Smile to my face
I know you lie
Knife in the back

Another game
Rules, rules, rules
Not for me
Ya fuckin' fool
Open your mouth
Just one more time
And my foot's goin' down

In one ear
Out the other
A waste of time
Don't even bother
I hate being here

I hate people that make you feel small
I hate having my back against the wall
You know, I hate being talked down to

I hate your rules
I hate 'em all
Hate being marked to take the fall

Planet's not big enough for me and you
But most of all
I hate you...

YOU! I hate you
YOU! I hate you
I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate you

[Solo]

I hate people that make you feel small
I hate having my back against the wall
You know, I hate being talked down to

I hate your rules
I hate 'em all
Hate being marked to take the fall

Planet's not big enough for me and you
But most of all
I hate you...

Think I know
How you got this far?
Think I know how you
Got where you are?

Think I'll hate you
When you're dead?
I know I'll hate ya

Smile to my face
Know you lie
Say I got problems?
Ask yourself why

Hate the games
I hate the rules
You're gonna lose

Say I'm hostile
Gotta relax
Better get a grip
Here's the facts
Not much more of you

I hate people that make you feel small
I hate having my back against the wall
You know, I hate being talked down to

I hate your rules
I hate 'em all
Hate being marked to take the fall
Planet's not big enough for me and you
But most of all
I hate you...

I hate people that make you feel small (I HATE YOU)
I hate having my back against the wall (I HATE YOU)
I hate being talked down to

(I HATE YOU)I hate your rules
Every one (I HATE YOU)
Hate having counted you number one
I hate being placed at number two
But most of all
I hate you
I hate you
I HATE YOU!

I HATE!


4. Nothing To Die For


Old enough to know better, too young to care
Bent of self-destruction going nowhere
If I had a reason I could make it work for me
If I had an answer I wouldn't be so hard to see

Feelin' all just the same
Feelin' all like a pain
No I'm not down the drain

Make my own decisions just to go away
Take the consequences just not today
Got enough reasons still not workin' for me
Got all the answers still so hard to see

Somethin' is confusin' me
Somethin' is abusin' me
Somethin' is refusin' me, life

Let me live
(nothing to fight for)
I wanna give
(nothing to cry for)
I've been through hell and back so many times before

Take me there
(nothing to lie for)
I don't care where
(nothing to die for)
And show me why there's nothin' to die for too

Old enough to know better too dead to change
Went in with a full deck goin' out deranged
I had all the reasons tried, it didn't work for me
I had all the answers I was too blind to see

Mirror man in my eye
Mirror man gonna cry
Mirror man make you die

Let me live
(nothing to fight for)
I wanna give
(nothing to cry for)
I've been through hell and back so many times before

Take me there
(nothing to lie for)
I don't care where
(nothing to die for)
And show me why there's nothin' to die for too


5. Playing With Spiders / Skullkrusher


standin' at the crossroads
which way you gonna go
and what you gonna do
when it comes
bargainin' a gasoline
take a ride on this machine
gonna get me some
when it comes

just how far you gonna go
somebody should let you know
once you're in you ain't get it out
put aside your foolish pride
so you take just one more ride
I don't think you know
what it's about
here it comes

ridin' on a livin hell
got another soul to sell
right is right and wrong is wrong
life's a dream
on this machine
and lasts just about as long
so ya think you know it all
and when you ride you never fall
well I got some news for you
entice you with a wicked smile
take a ride for a while
seems that the news is true
yes it's true.

oh take me away
on the ride of your life
oh put me away
deathpusher
last time of my life
skullkrusher

ten thousand nightmares
ten thousand years
ten thousand martyrs crying
ten million tears
all the thinking never done
all the murder all the fun
wash the blood from your hands
bury your secrets in the sand
and forget
your mouth gonna dry
shortness of breath
symptoms of fear
symptoms of death

tracks go on for miles
through the agony and smiles
layin' there in pieces on the ground
what the hell you take a chance
crusher calls make your stance
when you're dead you never make a stand

race with the devil
engine's slowin' down
fifty years too early
you're laying underground... you're crushed.


6. Birth Of Tension


you're killing me, your mouth is movin'
but I cannot hear you speak
life's a tragedy. go on livin'
in a world not for the weak
keep your dreams inside your heart
never let the pressure tear you apart
truth is whispered on a breath
loud enough to cover the smell of death

never thought too important to mention
livin' through the birth, the birth of tension
never thought too important to mention
livin' with the tension, tension, tension.

don't you understand too much tension, snap
where you lose your grip
too many demands start at birth, snap
from the bomb you're ripped
leave your dreams inside, behind
never had a reason that you'll never find
tension builds another way
gonna make you all go away

too much tension, all around
too much tension, bring you down
all the pressures in the narrow mind
all the reasons you'll never find
did you kill your father, sleep with your mother
idolize your sister, jealous your brother
did ya kick the dog, were you beat a strap
were you really be abused, were you fakin'
all that too tense

you're killin' me so many ways
so little time to think
life's catastrophe, my glass empty
and I really need a drink
movin' all so very quick
movin' so fast that it makes me sick
let me outta here
livin' ain't livin' with the tension and the fear


7. Who Tends The Fire


who tends the fire
who keeps the torches lit
who fills your eyes with smoke
so you can't see
I need the fire
I need the torches lit
to see through all the smoke covering me

I have seen the fires burning
burning through the night
I have watched the tides a turning
and they go from dark to light

what is this meaning
what does this writing mean
where do I go
what do I do for now
prophecies are foolish
they never last
they never speak the truth
so why are they calling me now.

I don't know cause I cannot see
all I'm sure is gotta be
I'm not sure that I'm even me
but I know that I gotta be
yes I know that you're gonna die.
birth, life, death, is the reason why
save those fears that you're gonna cry.
cause I know that you're gonna die
yes I know I cannot see
and I'm sure that I gotta be
all these voices are killin' me
but they say that I got
say that I got
say that I gotta be me.

who tends the fire
who keeps the torches lit
who fill your eyes with smoke
so you can't see
I need the fire
I need the torches lit to see


8. The Years Of Decay


out on this road takes its toll
and you pay for everything you do
underlights, made me blind
this place is the same as last night
out of control takes its toll
but you learn to live with your dreams
speaking your mind to those you find
listening to what you have to say
I wouldn't change the way
I wouldn't stop the decay

promised the world, as your world
changed before your eyes
and the days became the weeks
and the weeks the years
and no one remembers that very first day
or how it slipped away
forever I wait, pulling in, pulling out
as the motors whine
to remind me I'm home
and I'm here to stay
as we decay
another day
decay away

I'm goin' home, I don't know where
I'm goin' home, not far from here

out on this road, paint this toll
make me whole, set the stage
fill it with anger, fill it with rage
no I don't know what's today
I know it falls in the years of decay
self, sacrifice, everynight
and together we paid a price in blood
that spilled out through the years
and another day passes away
look to the black, drawn farther back
look to each day, see the decay
times I've had, good and bad
win or lose, this is what I choose...


9. Evil Never Dies


revenge is sweet for thouse who wait
never early always late
waiting now to consummate
a marriage made in hell
hand in hand, walk alone
as good advice seems to drone
evil cuts right to the bone

has it come, awakens me
is it done and will it ever die
will it go. taking me
don't you know
evil never dies

keep me close to your heart
adversity will come apart
and finish just before you start
never question why
today was then, remember when
skipping numbers one through ten
permanence through the pen

read the rights a prophet's word
I've learned to deal with the absurd
and reach a darkened
pinnacle of light

money hungry, power thirsty
penny piching, fear inflicting
double crossing, back stabbing
promising eternity for a price
suckin', brain washing
mind raping, soul stealing
constant preaching, salvation reaching
lowest form of human, fucking life
evil never dies

laughter stands accusing me
emotion stands abusing me
the battered and the bruising me
is there darkness when you die
I heard a sound no one there
I heard a shot no one cares
laughter turns into despair

evil hidden everywhere
evil has a chilling stare
null and void of any care
is where the answer lies
it does no good to beg or cry
it does no good to question why
it does no good it never dies
evil never dies


10. Hole In The Sky


[Originally performed by Black Sabbath]

I'm looking through a hole in the sky
I'm seeing nowhere through the eyes of a lie
I'm getting closer to the end of the line
I'm living easy where the sun doesn't shine

I'm living in a room without any view
I'm living free because the rent's never due
The synonyms of all the things that I've said
Are just the riddles that are built in my head

Hole in the sky, take me to heaven
Window in time, through it I fly

I've seen the stars disappear in the sun
The shooting's easy if you've got the right gun
And even though I'm sitting waiting for Mars
I don't believe there's any future in cause

Hole in the sky, take me to heaven
Window in time, through it I fly
Yeah

I've watched the dogs of war enjoying their feast
I've seen the western world go down in the east
The food of love became the greed of our time
But now I'm living on the profits of pride
