VERSE 1
Welcome to a wasteland of plastic fruits and vegs
An artificial landscape where no land can be seen
Here drift a lonesome rider on his mighty steed
An almost lifeless nag, limping on and on
BRIDGE 1
Going up, and going down and going back
Losin' my direction!
Going straight, and going left and going right
I am lost!
Going up, and going down and going back
Losin' my direction!
Going straight, and going left and going right
I am lost!
CHORUS
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Plastic cowboys!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! In a plastic world!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Plastic cowboys!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! In a plastic world!
VERSE 2
He thinks he's like Clint eastwood, the king of the fierce gaze
But he looks lost and dazzled, a low-cost nameless man
Roming in the plastic with no real aim or goal
He's merging with the landscape, lost between fruits and vegs
BRIDGE 2
Going up, and going down and going back
Losin' my direction!
Going straight, and going left and going right
I am lost!
CHORUS
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Plastic cowboys!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! In a plastic world!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Plastic cowboys!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! In a plastic world!
FINAL CHORUS (2x)
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Plastic cowboys!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! In a plastic world!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Plastic cowboys!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! In a plastic world!

Verse 1
I´m surrounded by blurred faces
Chewing constantly my flesh
I cannot scream , I cannot chase them
Cause they live inside my head
Black wolves from prehistoric times
that will claw your life to death
Queen cockroaches flying away
from my narrow and empty chest
Chorus
Aaaaaaall of this is you (x4)
Verse 2
Love to hate, hate to love
Dirty tasks that I don't know
Muddy shoes, grumpy eyes,
Broken spines in a dead-end road
Soft and lite, hot and cold,
Black candy mirrors, my life is gone
Soft and lite, hot and cold,
Black sweety mirrors, my life is gone
Chorus
All of this is you (x4)
Yes, you
Interlude
Blind eyes the sun
Deaf ears my soul
Dried ice the skin
Rotten tongue my bones
Nightmare, nightmare, nightmare of you
Yes you
Interlude 2
I´m surrounded by blurred faces
Chewing constantly my flesh
I cannot scream, I cannot chase them
Cause they live inside my head
Verse 3
Black wolves from prehistoric times
that will claw your life to death
Love to hate, hate to love
Dirty tasks that I don't know
Soft and lite, hot and cold,
Black candy mirrors, my life is gone
Chorus
All of this is you (x4)
Outro
Blind eyes the sun
Deaf ears my soul
Dried ice the skin
Rotten tongue my bones
Nightmare, nightmare, nightmare of you

Verse 1
Lie in a cage of sand
Grasp to your final strand
Lie at the end of days
Buried by smoke and dirt
Lie in a cage of sand
See the snake how he dance
A sound you cannot sense
revealing his most secret sin
Chorus 1
Awake rattlesnake
Tear us away from a state
of horror
Come rattlesnake
Guide us away from this land
forever
Come rattlesnake
Come rattlesnake the serpent
Come rattlesnake
Come rattlesnake the serpent king
Verse 2
Feel the strenght of the scales
Chase the tracks of the tail
This is not your last day
lifted by serpent spires
Use the force of the earth
Find what is really worth
Rise from an ancient cage
Dispensating an grim punishment
Chorus 2
Awake rattlesnake
Tear us away from a state
of horror
Come rattlesnake
Guide us away from this land
forever
Ride as a chosen of the snake
The only bringer of its rage
Weild the power that berate
Brings all men to knee
Interlude
Rattling free, serpent king
Rattling free, serpent king
Rattling free, serpent king
Rattling free, serpent king
Chorus 3
Awake rattlesnake
Tear us away from a state
of horror
Come rattlesnake
Guide us away from this land
forever
Come rattlesnake
Come rattlesnake the serpent
Come rattlesnake
Come rattlesnake the serpent king

Peyote

Verse 1
I can smash stones with my head
Throw my vomit and swallow it again
Look that dragon, flying around
Look those pixies digging in the ground
Chorus
Mushrooms, Valium and Peyote,
Cocaine, Prozac and ecstasy
Mariujana and Mezcaline
This is my healthy week
Verse 2
Gifts from mother earth, her precious prize
So we seize the time and leave our pride
Chorus
Mushrooms, Valium and Peyote,
Cocaine, Prozac and ecstasy
Mariujana and Mezcaline
This is my healthy week
Interlude
I see the sounds coming from the earth
I have conversations with the dead
Giant flowers feeding into my skull,
Blue orchids thriving in my guts
I have met the shaman of the empyreal sky
I have seen the colours rising from the waves
And I have used them to free the slaves
Silky spiders crawling between my hair
Rising tides washing them away
I have met the shaman of the empyreal sky
I became the king of the immortal night
Moon and stars obeying to my command
Shining
Final Chorus
Peyote, Valium, ecstasy
Peyote this is my healthy week

Osiris

You gentle and wise, you killed by your brother, innocent,
your good will was betrayed by someone you trusted,
Your will is law on the sinners then look at my pain and his fault and give him his piece of obsession
We'd both like to see him on his knees
No one deals with being abased
It's his turn to yearn and languish and wonder whether smiling means a sincere feeling, embarrassed politeness or secret pity for a weaker one
Invisible and silent day after day, he didn't have time nor words, nor will to be fair
Just give him my pain and set me free from this ghost
His presence doesn't count much now but anger is still there
You do agree, don't you
Then show your wrath
Osiris

Save Yourself
03:46
|

Verse 1
An hearth of stone
forged in the fire
A mind of steel
Sharp as a razorblade
Deep in the eye
calling oblivion
Cold as a grave
No remorse, no regret
Bridge
Thunder and Lightning
Ruling the death of a brighter future
Thunder and Lightning
Bringing the fear for a grim tomorrow
Chorus
Scour the ruin of the remains of a broken life
Caged by fear, flowing tears, trapped by despair
Salty tears, taste of fear, taste of despair
taste of despair, fear and despair
Verse 2
Cold and frozen eyes
Dark and cryptic mind
Dry and void the stare
of those who were slain
Save yourself, save yourself
Run away and save yourself
Save yourself, save yourself
Run away and save yourself
The end is nigh, the end is nigh
We will fade into the night
The end is nigh, the end is nigh
We will fade into the night
Bridge
Thunder and Lightning
Ruling the death of a brighter future
Thunder and Lightning
Bringing the fear for a grim tomorrow
Chorus
Scour the ruin of the remains of a broken life
Caged by fear, flowing tears, trapped by despair
Salty tears, taste of fear, taste of despair
taste of despair, fear and despair
Outro
Save yourself, save yourself
Run away and save yourself (x6)

Intro
Here I am
Here I´m with you
Here again
Once again against you
Shoulder on shoulder
Head to head
Bone to bone
Eye on eyes
Deep blue bright
Standing on my own
Verse
After wandering alone in the vastness of my soul
I barely understood the meaning of the sun
Three ages took me to pledge my goddess sins
Eons of sand, melting guns, tattooing my skin
Chorus
I do claim your faith no more,
Pleased your god
With your tricks
I ain´t ruling your goals,
But Killing your lord
With my Beast
Hate to tell you so,
I´m a Son of a bitch
The devil´s on me
The devil´s on me
The devil is on me…
