In low over the calm waves
The fish swim in but it does not deter their
Sheer and relentless desire for
The conquest of the Seas
(of discord!)
500 pounds of resolve
Fall out of the sun on the shining sea
Can I snatch the victory that we've sought
But so far have not achieved?
"Look at that son of a bitch burn!"
The CAP is fierce but it does not deter our
Sheer and relentless desire for
Revenge from the angels of death
(There's a price to pay!)
But will I see this endeavor through
To its impending end
(There's a price to pay!)
The seas of the four directions;
All are born of one womb.
Why, then, do the winds and waves rise in discord?
From the ashes floating on the sea
The phoenix will rise once again
In low over the calm waves
Will this be the last thing I see?
Why'd I have to die like this
A fireball in a watery grave?
I was once the bird of prey
But they put my nest under the waves
Before…
Our sheer and relentless desire for
Revenge from the angels of death
(Was realized!)
In low over the calm waves
Will this be the last thing I see?
(There's a price to pay!)
"Look at that son of a bitch burn!"

The Great Patriotic War
06:12

We didn't as for this war
But it looks as if we have no choice
We can lay down our arms
Or we can choose to stand and fight
The carnage brought my them!
From the west like all the rest
They destroy our Motherland
Comrades! Heed the call of your countrymen!
They die for you...
Bleed for you...
Won't you do your part too?
(Not a step backwards!)
We'll put those Fascists on their knees
We won't stop until Berlin
Our young men is all we need!
Bombs are falling overhead
And we'll crush their spirit whenever we can
Raise the Banner of Justice!
The Red Army won't be defeated!
Mothers and fathers build more arms
So your sons can be victorious
Onward, comrades, to Berlin
It's our Great Patriotic War
They burned our fields and villages but
We won't stop until their nation is crushed
The cost will be very high
But the strength and will of our people will prevail
(Die!)
And we won't stop until we've won
We won't stop until Berlin
Our young men is all we need!
Bombs are falling overhead
And we'll crush their spirit whenever we can
Raise the Banner of Justice!
The Red Army won't be defeated!
Mothers and fathers build more arms
So your sons can be victorious
Onward, comrades, to Berlin
It's our Great Patriotic War
We will not stop until their nation is crushed!
In these dark times
The ends will justify
The means
To victory...
Remember the brave ones
They're the ones who won't come back
Our enemies run in fear
It's our Great Patriotic War!

Farewell to Ararat
03:16

With their guns
The young ones came
At the end of the bayonet
They drove us away
All across the empire
All roads lead to the end
(They’re all paved with the dead)
Is heaven next
Or the eternal sleep?
The blood we shed
Flows like the tears we weep
The war came
So fast
So will we
Be the last?
We’ll never see Yerevan…
Mothers cry as they hold their children
Dying in their hands
The old ones cling to their icons
As they're shot through the head
Down the long road to Deir ez-Zur
The condemned are lead
At the altar of the newborn nation
We’re the sacrificial lambs
We’ll never see Yerevan….

Halsey's Typhoon

26.8 inches
The barometric pressure in my heart
The little ship it can’t take much more
Of the storm that’s in all our hearts
Like the captain of the ship without
A first mate or a boatswain
The sea turned grey just like the mountains
The crests were capped white just like they're snow
We steamed right in at full speed
We should have this known in heavy seas
But the orders came in clearly
Refuel and maintain course to north-westerly
In the 70 degree roll
Even Farragut would be appalled
So much worse than at the Coral Sea
All we expected was the Japanese
Even more
As the storm
In my heart
Grew worse
I could see
You on the pier
The very day
That I left
Out to sea
The men have tried so bravely
To save the ship from sinking
But now the bow is breaking
It could drive a man to drinking
Tilted all the way to starboard
The mast can touch the 50 foot waves
The storm was breaking apart the keel
It’s our last voyage to sea
If I were back on the dry land
I’d say the things I hadn’t
I’d do the thing I wanted
But duty bound, below the waves
Vanished....
26.8 inches
The barometric pressure in my heart
Like the captain of the ship without
A first mate or a boatswain

Pavlov's House
03:58
|

|
It was the winter of his discontent
So many unexpected guests
But in his house
There won’t be peace
Till everybody else leaves
Many more
Have come to stay
But he will make them go away
He’s a local celebrity
But his house has more renown than he
But buried there
Below the floor boards
The guests forever are interred
The neighborhood
Is burning down
It’s the only house that’s left in town
Welcome to Pavlov’s House
Where his door is always open
It’s not just a house
It’s a symbol
It represents the town
The snow melts
The bodies discovered
No one gets out alive
Did you bring your invitation?
It’s a symbol…
No one gets out alive
Did you bring your invitation?
Welcome to Pavlov’s House
The snow melts
The bodies discovered
It’s his house
So he can choose
Who wins
And who will lose
No one gets out alive
Did you bring your invitation?
It’s a symbol…
Welcome to Pavlov’s House
Where his door is always open
Welcome to Pavlov’s House
It’s a symbol
It represents the town
Welcome to Pavlov’s House
His door is always open…

Computers run our lives
My field will keep you away
I'll die
An Angel
Is taking me over
And I know it hurts
But you have to endure
These pains
It takes the fun of life out of your
Heart
Is aching
Your mind is breaking
And all you know is to survive
Face your fears of these fifteen long years
Our creations lead us to battle stations
Artificial Evolution
Alone with the scent of blood
Your lance
My soul
Put it straight through my core
The patterns turn up blue
This can only mean my
Heart
Is aching
My mind is breaking
And all I know is to survive
Face your fears of these fifteen long years
Our creations lead us to battle stations
Activate your field
And defeat our enemies
Or else we all will surely die
Artificial Evolution
Alone with the scent of blood
Their scenarios lead me to this
His own obsessions betrayed in whom we trust
And I love you
But I hate you
And you are not the one that should die
Let share what's inside my heart with you
Let me share these feelings with you
Do you know this pain?
No, it's different it’s...
Loneliness.
It's too late our new genesis is at had and
All you know is to survive...
I can't run away
I can't run away
I can't run away
I won't run away!
