THE IDES OF MARCH

(Instrumental)

 

WRATHCHILD

Born into a scene

Angriness and greed

Dominance and persecution

 

Mother was a queen

Dad I never seen

I was never meant to be

 

CHORUS: Now I spend my time looking all around

               For a man that's nowhere to be found

               Till I find him, never gonna stop searching

               Gonna find my man, gonna travel round

               Cause I'm a Wrathchild

               Yeah I'm a Wrathchild 

               Well I'm a Wrathchild

               I'm coming to get you

               Ooh Yeah

 

Some say it doesn't matter

Ain't nothing gonna alter 

The course of my destination

But I know I've got to find

Some serious peace of mind 

Or I know I'll just go crazy 

(Repeat chorus)

 

MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE

I remember it as plain as day although it happened in the dark of night

I was strolling through the streets of Paris, it was cold it was starting to rain

And then I heard an ear-piercing scream, and I rushed to the scene of the crime

But all I found was the butchered remains of two girls laying side by side

CHORUS: Murders in the rue morgue

                  Someone call the gendarmes

                  Murders in the rue morgue

                  Viet before the killers go free

There's some people coming down the street, at last someone's heard my call

I can't understand why they're pointing at me, I never done nothing at all

Well, I must've got some blood on my hands, cause everyone's shouting at me

I can't speak French so I couldn't explain, and like a fool started running away

CHORUS: Murders in the rue morgue

                  Someone call the gendarmes

                  Murders in the rue morgue

                  Am I ever going to be free

And now I've got to get away from the arms of the law, all of France is looking for me,

I've got to find a way across the border for sure, down the south to Italy

CHORUS: Murders in the rue morgue

                  Running from the gendarmes

                  Murders in the rue morgue

                  I'm never going home

Well I made it to the border at last, but I can't erase the scene from my mind

Any time somebody stares at me, I just start running blind

Well I'm running through the shadows tonight, away from the staring eyes

Any day they'll be looking for me, cause I know I'll show the signs of..

CHORUS: Murders in the rue morgue

                  Running from the gendarmes

                  Murders in the rue morgue

                  Am I ever going to be free

It took so long and I'm getting so tired, I'm running out of places to hide,

Should I return to the scene of the crime, where the two young victims died.

If I could go to somebody for help, it would get me into trouble for sure,

But I know that it's on my mind, that my doctor said I've done it before.

CHORUS: Murders in the rue morgue

                  They're never going to find me

                  Murders in the rue morgue

                  I'm never going home.

 

ANOTHER LIFE

As I lay here lying on my bed, sweet voices come into my head

What it is I want to know, please won't you tell me it's got to go

There's a feeling that's inside me, telling me to get away

But I'm so tired of living, I might as well end today.

 

INNOCENT EXILE

My life is so empty

Nothing to live for

My mind is all confusion

Cause I defied the law

 

When you weren't there to help me

I lost my mind and ran

I never had no trouble

Before this all began  

 

My life is so empty

Nothing to live for

My mind is all confusion

Cause I defied the law

 

When you weren't there to help me

I lost my mind and ran

I never had no trouble

Before this all began  

 

I'm running away

Nowhere to go

I'm lost and tired

And I just don't know

 

They say I killed a woman

They know it isn't true

They're just trying to frame me

And all because of you.

 

Lord I'm running

 

KILLERS

You walk through the subway, his eyes burn a hole in your back

A footstep behind you he lunges prepared for attack

Scream for mercy, 

He laughs as he's watching you bleed

Killer behind you

His blood lust defies all his needs.

My innocent victims are slaughtered by wrath and despite

The mocking religion of hatred that burns in the night

I have no-one

Am bound to destroy all this greed

A voice inside me

Compelling to satisfy me

 

I can see, what a life's meant to be

You'll never know, How I came to foresee

 

My faith in believing is stronger than lifelines and ties

The glimmer of metal, my moment is ready to strike

 

The death call arises a scream breaks the still of the night

Another tomorrow remember to walk in the light

I have found you

And now there is no place to run

Excitement, shakes me

Oh, God help me what have I done

He walks through the subway, his eyes burn a hole in your back

A footstep behind you he lunges prepared for attack

 

Scream for mercy, 

He laughs as he's watching you bleed

Killer behind you

His blood lust defies all his needs.

Look out I'm coming for you

 

PRODIGAL SON

Listen to me lamia, listen to what I've got to say,

I've got these feelings and they just won't go away

I've got these fears inside that'll bring me to my knees

Oh help me lamia, or I'm sure I'll die oh please
