"The Grinding Wheel" lyrics
"The Grinding Wheel"
A bed of nails, cold dark deep refrigeration
A hear it calling me
A broken rail as he drools over the congregation
I hear it calling me
Now I won't tell you how to live your life
I never saw the point in thinking twice
I turn the wheel by day, by night
Raise your flag
Here's to the liberation
Day by day I move in time
Turn the wheel, pay for my crimes
The miller's horse is wearing down
He bangs his heart on hollowed ground
The miller hears a single sound
The sound of the grinding wheel goes round and round
The ship has sailed to dark sea destinations
I feel it holding me
The gods are hailed for their absentee observations
I feel it holding me
Now I can't tell you where integrity hides
It showed its face, you struck it down and it died
I turn my wheel with a seamless pride
Raise your flag
Here's to the revolution
Day by day I move in time
Turn the wheel, pay for my crimes
The pain is all you ever feel
A concrete will, and a back of steel
I give you my soul unto the wheel
Day by day I move in time
Turn the wheel, pay for my crimes
The miller's horse is wearing down
He bangs his heart on hollowed ground
The miller hears a single sound
The sound of the grinding wheel
The miller's horse is wearing down
He bangs his heart on hollowed ground
The miller hears a single sound
The sound of the grinding wheel goes round and round
Eye of the needle, it in the hear of the sun
Stuck in the middle, with the blazing one
This weathered hand, has a grip of steel
These eyes have seen it all; on the grinding wheel
Say your prayers, say what you feel
Count your blessings, make a deal
What you borrow, what you steal
Crush it all, on the grinding wheel
Hear the grinding wheel keeps turning
Round and round and round

Exodus - "Funeral Hymn" Let not the sun go down on my wrath

Whatever your god may be
Forget those idols let me tell you
They're tales of morbid brains

Kreator - "Strongest Of The Strong" No messiahs, there's just us
Among corpses of patriarchs
No more heaven, only this
Lives led with an iron fist
As we live through it
Stealing fire from the kings
We will light the flames
Oh!...
Megadeth - "Tornado Of Souls" This morning I made the call
The one that ends it all
Hanging up I wanted to cry
But dammit this well's gone dry
Not for the money, not for the fame
Not for the power, just no more games
But, now...
