Watching you
Floodlights seal your fate
Shallow breath
Quick pulse
Navigate
All this waiting, waiting
Contemplating you
Pure adrenaline emergency
You've been searching for signs now the truth has
arrived
State control
Attack and reload
Theoretical Illusory
Volunteer to the ultimate system of life
Brace the blow
Attack and reload
Molecular breakdown mutate below
Cause and effect to react and explode
Static rush
Gravitational pull of delirium
Close my eyes
Hear what you say
Got the guns
The power to take
Bomb the one
The one that slipped away
Temper tantrum you communicate
It's your nature to be cold
Automatic how you operate
System failure
Brain control
Attack and reload
. . .

I don't need your contradictions
I'm not gonna play that role
I don't need you telling me I've got my back against the wall
If all I've got is everything and everything is all you want
If I give you just a little bit you're gonna try to take it all
I feed my anger with the fucking bullshit that you preach
I bleed forever and not a thing you do can comfort me
Obey authority
Live in conformity
I do for you what you do for me
I don't fear the confrontation
I'm not afraid to take the fall
I'm not gonna step aside I"m not letting you make the call
If everything is all I've got and everything is what you want
If I give you just a little bit you're gonna try to take it all
I feed my anger with the fucking bullshit that you preach
I bleed forever and not a thing you do can comfort me
I feed my anger with the fucking bullshit that you preach
I bleed forever and not a thing you do can comfort me
Obey authority
Live in conformity
I do for you what you do for me
I feed my anger with the fucking bullshit that you preach
I bleed forever and not a thing you do can comfort me (Repeat lines 3 times)
Obey authority
Live in conformity
I do for you what you do for me

just one call will cure it all
take my toll and break my fall
come and join my little war
you could be my broken whore
i do not need express excess
i do not need your sorid sex
i do not need to hear your cries
squirming on the pin of ice
'coz you hurt me
when i'm dirty
come on hurt me
'coz i'm dirty
heaven can't take me
hell don't care
kmfdm
gonna take me there
is your lie
is your high
gonna drink you dry?
you'll crawl and die
do you want
do you pain
do you need in your vein?
to release to relapse
to reload and collapse
a little joke
we're getting flirty
a bit of rope
and now we're dirty
. . .

All you want is a scapegoat
All you want is to get absolution from shame
You have nothing to lose anymore
Never was anything worth to be lost in this war in the first place
They make you hate their name
Prostrate yourself in the arena of blame
Nothing at all is left to be said
The flag's gone up and the dawn is red
Headed down the hard way
Concrete battle ground
Urban monkey warfare
Sabotage underground camouflage
Man-Monkey
Monkey-man
Urban gorilla
All you know is reflection
All you know is the code to hack and crack
The truth lies buried in shallow graves
Who's afraid to claim it back?
. . .

If you dont know that you were found
You were looking for
The silver lining always starts to fade
What you dont know
Is that you dont know the truth anymore
Try sleeping in the bed you have made
The feeling is gone and the circle is broken
like water under a burning bridge
I knew the words but nothing was spoken
A deafening silence replaced by fear
Save me
I can't find my way home
The grace i've fallen from
The only truth i've ever known
So when you tell me what you tell me
I can't take it anymnore
The same old story goes around and around
You think that if you speak a little louder you did before
The point you make might somehow stick around
If empathy is no more the token
I cried a river in the pouring rain
The princess still sleeps
But she will be woken
The kiss of love is killing me
Save me
I can't find my way home
The ground i'm walking on
The only friend i've ever known
Mother, father
The battle i fight is for no one
No one but myself
Brother, sister
The devil inside is my own now
There's no way you could understand
You don't understand
you don't understand
you don't understand
Save me
I can't find my way home...
Save me
Mother, father
The tears that you cry are for no one
No one but yourself
Brother, sister
I travel this road on my own now
There's no way you could understand
Save me
I can't find my way home
The grace I've fallen from
The only truth I've ever known
Save me
I can't find my way home
The ground I'm walking on
The only friend I've ever known
. . .

yohoho
and a bottle of rum
i'm in the gutter
but i've got the gun
16 men on a dead man's chest
a little lead for a little rest
one's for shit
one's for shame
now the hurt
fans the flame
yohoho
here's the fun
you get to go
i get to come
six bold strokes
and no new jokes
the lost and found's
your only hope
here's the lard
in leather glove
answered dreams
straight from above
pull me in
drage me down
you can be the kapt'n
as we're tumbling
always down
go slow
on the torture-show
fear not what you can't see
the pulse
the pain
the ecstacy
a hollow space
an empty grave
the best laid plans are meant to fade
. . .

You're so wonderful
Apple of everyone's eye
You're so clever
Multimillion-dollar smile
The world is your oyster and pearls are fun
Share them with everyone that you love
And you love everyone always all of the time
Missing link you eat your own dear
Bird of prey you can't control
In your world of perception
Hazy
Hazy
Hazy
Hazy
Connection precise
Cave in
Bow down to the other side
You're a superhero demigod
No one anywhere anytime any which way but you
If the mirror speaks the truth we must aspire and work harder to be like you
'Cause anything goes when you're a star
Anything goes when you're a star
Regal elegant
You are bewitching and wild
Fifteen minutes a lifetime
They just don't apply
Shudder to think it could ever be true
That anyone else is as lovely as you
You bear the name and the lineage that we desire
You're a superhero demigod
No one anywhere anytime any which way but you
If the mirror speaks the truth we must aspire and work harder to be like you
'Cause anything goes when you're a star
Anything goes when you're a star
When you're a star
(You're a superhero demigod)
(You're a superhero demigod)
In the shutterbug-flash you look fabulous
With your made-to-order plastic mask
You look so divine
(You look so divine!)
You're a superhero demigod
No one anywhere anytime any which way but you
If the mirror speaks the truth we must aspire and work harder to be like you
'Cause anything goes when you're a star
Anything goes when you're a star
You look so divine
(You're a superhero demigod)
You look so divine
(You look so divine!)
(You're a superhero demigod)

you make and break your own restrictions
you write and prove your own revisions
you become new
you sweat and bleed pure fascination
you thrive upon disintegration
you break through
the truth the lies all fabrications
only you control your destination
you, you are what you do
you put aside your resolution
you dig into a new conclusion
you become new
you revel in the de-construction
you feel your mind become a weapon
you break through
wiederaufbau und vernichtung
wirklichkeit und heldendichtung
edle wahrheit und legende
kmfdm zum bitteren ende
sturm&drang
dir gehoren
sturm&drang
kunst erleben
sturm&drang
neu und fremd
sturm&drang
mein kmfdm

blackened blood that stains this bed
my sweet addiction i thee wed
you will work
i will win
i will drink in all your sin
till gallon drunk i hit the ground
your reason rhymes with pence and pounds
money makes morality
your dividends
my decency
your cheapest cut is sweet corrosion
the interest due is never frozen
pass the bill
have your thrill
there's a pill for all your ills
you will condemn
i'll convert
you will preach
i will pervert
lay on your face
and beg
that the mercy of god
will come upon you
. . .

A full threesixty a complete return
With no excuses and no concerns
The ultra-heavy-beat is going strong
If it feels this good then it can't be wrong
Karma echo eternity
What's good for You is still good for me
And after all We're not looking back
We manipulate the future to stay on track
Damned if You do and damned if You don't
You better seize the moment before it's gone
The ultra-heavy-beat goes on and on
When it's all said and done this is what You want
The vision direction reflecting perfection
The manifesto translates post-mortem
Buried alive and left for dead
One step back is two steps ahead
Rise from the ashes and decay
Rise from the priso of Your grave
Rise above the standard and the norm
Rise into the eye of the storm
Raise the flag carry the flame
The more things change the more the stay the same
The king is dead
Long live the king
Mayhem riot uprising
A small step for mankind
A gigant leap for a rock'n'roll
We control the rhythm
The beat cops are on patrol
Wake up people
Get on Your feet
It's time to do Your part
For the ultr-heavy-beat
Shoulder to shoulder
Back to back
All guns ablaze
Systematic attak
Strong and rigid
Bold and vivid
Spead the news
The ego has landed
Metal detectors
Drugtests
Curfews
Don't let the system continue to rape You
Vodka and benzene
Destroy the machines
The glorious end justifies the means
. . .

don't say you can't
just do what i would do for you
you watch my back
and i'll be there to cover you
do as i say
and never question what i do
two feet away
there's trouble closing in on you
close my heavy eyes now
give me sleep
i travel troubled oceans
across the land and sea
. . .
