ANNIHILATOR LYRICS

1. Alison Hell (Remastered)

["A young girl, terrified, there's something out there. But is it real? It must be, because it's watching her. Her pleas for comfort and reassurance are ignored, and soon, all she has left is her imagination... and that's the most terrifying thing of all."]

Alice, isn't it frightening?
Alice, aren't you scared?
Alice, isn't it wonderful?
Living life afraid
Don't look around the corner
I might be lurking there
Under the bed at night
You're up till dawn again

Alison hell, your mind begins to fold
Alison hell, aren't you growing cold?
Alison hell, you are looking blue
Alice in hell, what else can you do?

Alice

I begin my rule, life hideous in your mind
Crying out, you've lost your doll
It isn't worth a dime

Alison hell, your mind begins to fold
Alison hell, aren't you growing cold?
Alison hell, what are you looking for?
Alice in hell, soon I close the door

Sitting in the corner, you are naked and alone
No one listened to your fears, you've created me

Alice, isn't it frightening?
Alice, aren't you scared?
I was killed at birth
I shoot this final scene
You're in the basement
You're trapped insanity

Alison hell, what were you looking for?
Alison hell, as I close the door
Alison hell, here you shall dwell
Alison hell, Alice dwells in hell

Alice

Alice
Alison
Alice
In hell

Goodbye

2. Phantasmagoria (Unreleased)

["Phantasmagoria is a form of psychological disorder where the victim has visions of ghosts in his/her mind. These apparitions multiply, eventually driving the victim nuts. Weird, eh? All our friends who remember the Phantasmagoria 1986 demo should find this quite happening and very heavy. Cheers!"]

I have chosen you my friend, you're mine
Locked inside this frightening dream
Nowhere to hide
Every night my demons you will see
An apparition festival, through hell you'll ride

Phantasmagoria
Sleep well
Phantasmagoria
In hell

Some one here is calling out your name
Look out, I play inside your brain
Fleeing from my shadows, you'll never pass my test
Don't you know that ghosts never rest

Phantasmagoria
Sleep well
Phantasmagoria
In hell

Approaching, you writhe, we take control
Unholy inquisition, sentence very cold
My servants, demons, take you down the hole
Your mind destroyed, now I want your soul

Phantasmagoria
Sleep well
Phantasmagoria
In hell

Phantasmagoria
Phantasmagoria
In hell!

3. Back To The Crypt (Unreleased)

Darkness fills another room, crowded to the hilt
Suddenly a flash of light, the floor begins to tilt
Screaming hungry maniacs, celebrate the sound
Of music most appreciated by the underground

Back to the crypt, thrashing the underground
Back to the crypt, get yourself back
Back to the crypt, we'll hit you hard and heavy
Back to the crypt

We're criticized for what we do, just thrashing having fun
Singing songs of love and hate
Our power is next to none
Pounding through from hall to hall, rooms so full of good
Friends and those who wanna be simply understood

Back to the crypt, thrashing the underground
Back to the crypt, get yourself back
Back to the crypt, we'll hit you hard and heavy
Back to the crypt

Starting out with no respect for what we have to play
No future in your band is what they used to always say
Thanks to you we have the drive our foots now in the door
Opening alternatives to metal and hardcore

Back to the crypt, thrashing the underground
Back to the crypt, get yourself back
Back to the crypt, we'll hit you hard and heavy
Back to the crypt

4. Gallery (Unreleased)

Here we are at the gallery of the grotesque
Come a little closer just a few more steps
As we enter now we see the neophyte of life
Looking for the saviour living on the knife

Gallery of the grotesque
Where your fears are brought from rest
Grotesque gallery of the grotesque
Strength survives this fatal test
Grotesque gallery of the grotesque
Where your fears are brought from rest
Grotesque gallery of the grotesque
Strength survives this fatal test grotesque

Feel the rhythm pounding on madly through your veins
Are you willing to come with me to go insane
Who here will try to die no echo no last goodbye
Psychic revelations welcome to your death

There we are at the gallery of the grotesque
What is alive inside your brain
You can leave would not you play my game
In your room dream too much blood
Scream what is out there

5. Human Insecticide (Live)

["Incarcerated in an age old asylum , his cell runs rampant with menacing little creatures who flaunt their freedom by roaming so freely. Powerless to the cruelty and extreme disconcern of his human restraints, he finds timeless contentment by playing officer, judge and executioner over his 'cell mates'. The final sentence is always obliteration."]

Psychotic tendencies have put me here for life
Dreams of smashing little things before they ruin my life
Find means capable of smothering a flea
Extermination is their end, escaping not from me

Retaliate
Decapitate - I love to see them bleed
Annihilate
I am human insecticide

Creepy black mass, I see one down below
Prepare to strike, act quickly now, strike the fatal blow
Extinguishing the menace, they will know my name
Destroying these, the lives of waste, delivered now to pain

Retaliate
Decapitate - I love to see them bleed
Annihilate
I am human insecticide

Asphyxiate the flame of life
From hatred they will die
Power kept in my control
Their souls are caged with mine

Expelled from life, they cannot hide, I will find them out
Their game's lost, I hunt them down, their end without a doubt
Psychotic tendencies, my dreams are coming true
My plans are set without repent, I'm tightening the screw

Retaliate
Decapitate - I love to see them bleed
Annihilate
I am human insecticide

6. The Fun Palace (Extended Mix)

["Carrying on Annihilator's fine tradition of covering weird, psychological illnesses 'palace' is narrated by the emotion of guilt. It details the psychic voyage taken by one who has committed a heinous crime and gotten away with it. Many years later the nightmares become so intense that the only way for the murderer to stop them is to confess"]

Welcome, I invite you off to the other world
You'll have to face this house of no escape
Confront the past, in this psychic house of horrors
I lead you up the path you'll take

Panic, your conscience lied
Trapped inside
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the fun palace

Panic, just try to scream
It's only a dream
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the palace

Tonight you'll be tried, I invoke the memories
The guilt to be driven from this unconscious mind
Young lives that you've denied, behold their faces
Innocence cut to pieces, just look behind

Panic, your conscience lied
Trapped inside
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the fun palace

Panic, just try to scream
It's only a dream
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the palace

Look at the fun and the games that you've taken away
Confess!
Dreams of growing up have been destroyed
Because of you!

Farewell, I impel you back to your other world
You'll have to face your every sin
Take this a painful bounty, representing me
The keeper of the palace and the secrets held within

Panic, your conscience lied
Trapped inside
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the fun palace

Panic, just try to scream
It's only a dream
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the palace

Goodbye, from the fun palace

7. W.T.Y.D. (Live)

["Death seen through the eyes of the dying and a summons from the great beyond to join the masses of lapsed lives. Mystery and, sometimes, fantasy. Theory and legend. The plight of dying or the fight to freedom? A supernatural transition to a world that is known only in dreams and in death. Welcome..."]

Catch a shooting star, burn it to a crisp
Born into death, will you take the risk
See buckets and buckets, yeah buckets of sin
You'll never end and can never begin

Welcome to your death

Welcome to your death
Welcome to your death

No forest of pleasure or fields of pain
High-rise at night see the pavement of stain
A beckoning hand from those who were slain
Now you can sleep again

Welcome to your death
Welcome to your death
Welcome to your death

I take the night and I stretch it wide
And I see all, you hide, I died
So slip right in, sip the wine
The caution flashes but the water's fine

Welcome to your death
Welcome to your death
Welcome to your death

8. Word Salad (Live)

["White coats swarm about the patient. They've come to see inside his head. White coats say he's incoherent and tell him that he's sick. Straps and restraints don't hold back the horrible visions, and the syrup in the syringe only causes them to melt into a vile blob. They don't understand his monosyllabic utterances, yet the patient babbles on in his foreign tongue... Lobotomy."]

Closets of my mind destroyed, as I enter outward from a void
Corpses white have strapped me down, I rise above then fall
Tactual hallucination, cockroaches infest the wall

Psychic pain on ice, I hurt
Devoid strength my life, inert
Anger fills they're shocked me back
White corpses turn to black
I run on psychic gasoline, my fuel shall burn you all

Word salad, no ballad
Word salad, no ballad

Diabolic plot, a toy, my brain the corpses to destroy
Prick my arm, injection fed, it's poison, I'm no fool
Tetanus shot, be sure it's not, I wish I were at school
Closets of my mind destroyed, but I enter inward, black void
Hatred turned to apathy, led down this black abyss
Good night, farewell you pig from hell, this world I shall not miss

Word salad, no ballad
Word salad

Woken up from death, nausea
Catatonic stupor, anoxia
Remaining still I hold onto a sense of permanence
Negativistic fear of pain, algophobic life sentence
Moral, physical decay, hatred withered away
Scourge of god he makes me pay, I shall not live or die
Vegetative judgement passed, my only thought to cry

9. Live Wire (Live)

Well if you're lookin' for trouble
I'm the man to see
If you're lookin' for satisfaction
I'm satisfaction guaranteed
I'm as cool as a body on ice
Hotter than a rollin' dice
Send you to heaven
Take you to hell
I ain't foolin'
Can't you tell

I'm a live wire, I'm a live wire, I'm a live wire
Gonna set this town on fire

And if you need some lovin'
And if you need some man
You've got the phone and the number
And I got no future plans
Oh come on honey you got nothin' to lose
You got the thirst 'n I got the booze
Give you an inch
Take you a mile
I wanna make you fry

I'm a live wire, (live wire)
I'm a live wire, (live wire)
I'm a live wire, (live wire)
Holy smoke and sweet desire

Like a hot rod baby?
Oh stick this in your fuse box

Aah cooler than a body on ice
Hotter than a rollin' dice
Wilder than a drunken fight
You're gonna burn tonight

I'm a live wire, (live wire)
I'm a live wire, (live wire)
I'm a live wire, (live wire)
And I'm gonna set this town on fire

Live wire, (live wire)
I'm a live wire, (live wire)
Well I'm your live wire, (live wire)
I'm a live wire, (live wire)
You're gonna burn
Ah look at me, guilty
......

Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn

10. Knight Jumps Queen (Demo)

Good evening and welcome to a test of the minds
This match begins as our thoughts begin to grind
I send a pawn towards you, a subtle piece of my attack
Pondering the next move, I guess you'll never know unless you try
It

Knight jumps queen if you know what I mean
Anticipation of the final scene
Knight jumps queen, so get prepared
For this checkmate has been happily declared
As the knight jumps the queen

You have made selections, a white castle crumbles at your feet
To Counter the men in black, your moves must all be elite
A bishop takes a rook and this cuts him down to size
This is no tailor-made situation
I guess I have some real competition for once

Knight jumps queen if you know what I mean
Anticipation of the final scene
Knight jumps queen, so get prepared
For this checkmate has been happily declared
As the knight jumps the queen

Hours and hours to a stalemate, this game has come to a close
Could it end without a climax between to exhausted foes
Night-time's falling on the castle, it's bringing in another day
The concentration was impossible, I never had a doubt I wouldn't
Win it from you

Knight jumps queen if you know what I mean
Anticipation of the final scene
Knight jumps queen, so get prepared
For this checkmate has been happily declared
As the knight jumps the queen

11. Fantastic Things (Unreleased)

A new day lies before me
And something doesn't seems to be the same
My life's so full with so much dark affection
I realize I'm the only one to blame

Fantastic things speaking to me
I've opened my eyes to the new reality
The pain I've known, slowly fade away
Fantastic thing speaking to me

Lost in a endless dream
That's haunted me forever
This feelings I didn't show
Brief the confusion
Will I can daily those just eating away
Theres so much in life I need to know

Fantastic thing speaking to me
I've open my eyes to new reality
The pain I've known, was slowly faded away
Fantastic thing speaking to me

As I awaken, it all become so clear
and you're so good, so deep inside
Just look around and listen, the tales of agony
The season of my life this time, is seted free

A new day lies before me
Echoing those twisted senseless memories
I've had the time to stop and wonder
Of the world it's sorting out
And what there is to see

Fantastic thing speaking to me
I've open my eyes to new reality
The pain I've known, slowly fades away
Fantastic thing speaking to me
Fantastic thing speaking to me
Fantastic thing speaking to me
The pain I've known, slowly fades away
Fantastic thing speaking to me
Fantastic thing speaking to me

12. Bats In The Belfry (Demo)

I'm getting sick and tired of wasting all my time
And trying to read between your lines
It's hard to see yourself, when the mirror's cracked
Why don't you try to see the signs

It's time to realise
It's not that hard to see
Just open up your eyes
I've got bats in the belfrey

Why not take all of me, or was this all in vain
I'm crying out "Don't take me down with you"
My pain and all your problems are coming to the boil
So tired of all the hell I've been put through

It's time to realise
It's not that hard to see
Just open up your eyes
I've got bats in the belfrey

Why don't you listen
I'm trying to help you
You don't, don't give a damn
Why can't you hear me
I'm trying to save you
You don't give a, you don't, don't give a damn
Anxiety attacks as confusion rips at the mind
Help me, my head is spinning round and round
Help me, I guess you'll never know until it hits you in the face
Like a bat
I sit here in my room without too much to say
At least I'll live to see another day no thanks to you

To late to realise
It wasn't that hard to see
Just open up your eyes
I've got bats in the belfrey

13. Evil Appetite

Hey man, you got a dollar, maybe some change?
No sorry man I don't have any money, I'm in a hurry leave me alone.
Honest, all I want is something to eat.
Yeah right, the way you smell you'd probably spend it on booze.
I wasn't always like this.

I woke up this morning I could not get out of bed
I had a couple of drinks last night I guess it went to my head
I slept through my wake up call forgot to feed the cat
There is only one thing wrong I do not know where I am at

Excuse, no use, it does not work for me
You have had your chances so why bother me
Tic toc, just look at the clock, your life is passing by
You have had your chances, do not bother me
One drink is all need you do not care about the life you need
You got an evil appetite to feed

I have got to get a move on it is a quarter to ten
I cannot find my keys at all forgot my suit again
I get to work, the boss says "late" this happens everyday
Once more, you have lost your job I do not care anyway

Yesterday I lost my job it does not bother me
I will do what I want and I will do it again you just wait and see
Time for a drink and no time to think with a bottle of rum
Well I am running low and it is time to go out to get me some

Grotesque gallery of the grotesque

What is alive inside your brain
You can leave would not you play my game
In your room dream too much blood
Scream what is out there

["A young girl, terrified, there's something out there. But is it real? It must be, because it's watching her. Her pleas for comfort and reassurance are ignored, and soon, all she has left is her imagination... And that's the most terrifying thing of all."]

Alice isn't frightening
Alice aren't you scared
Alice isn't is wonderful
Living life afraid
Don't look around the corner

You're up till dawn again
