This Annihilation:
Stare
Like a china doll
Now the sky will fall down upon us all
Can you fill those wasted years?
Now it's time to she'd those tears
Hard man
Death
Flying in the night
Generating light
On it's fatal flight
Desperation looms above your head
Silent violence as the lights flash red
Die
For the powers that be
For men who couldn't see their own insanity
Now the night will follow day
Is it right to end our lives this way?

Black Box:
I reach out and touch the chill black face
I get the thrill inside
Curious desire; need to know
What lies behind your walls
Real world deserts me now
Thoughts drift into emptiness
Black box calling me again
The time is now... Decide within
The scream of fear... An agonizing dread
Clings to me and shows me how the end will be
The weight of time pulls me down
Fear of pain beyond the walls
Someone pull me back, someone... give me the will to get out of this
Insane desire has me now
I know it's where I need to be
Alone again in dark despair
Memory leads me back to simple times
But where to go? -- but what to do?
My thoughts continually flash
Back to you
I reach out and touch the chill black face
I get the thrill inside
Curious desire; need to know
What lies behind your walls
Real world deserts me now
Thoughts drift into emptiness
Black box calling me again

Clings to me and shows me how the end will be

But where to go? -- but what to do?
My thoughts continually flash
Back to you
Colossus:
Rise above your peers
Play upon their fears
(Heaven looks on)
Carry on and up
The secrets in your heart
(Heaven looks on)
Pride is the soil in which we grow, wither and die,
Open your heart.
Where does it all end... this futile search for more and more?
(Heaven looks on)
Pride is the air we breathe each day, lost in the Self,
Every Colossus shall fall.
How short is this life, how precious, how fragile?
I cannot believe the things I do.
The flames of love and meaning will burn on without me,
I am only ashes and dust.
Now may I introduce to you the cancer of the soul...
I know what it is to be wise in my own eyes,
Every Colossus shall fall.
Is there a peace I could enjoy before I turn away?
Is there a peace I could enjoy before my final day?

Come on Back:
Sitting alone is so bad
(The times we had!...)
Feeling you close to my heart
Even though we're worlds apart
Come on back to me
My heart's crying out loud
'Cause in losing you I lost
Dreaming of suicide
It's the easiest way to hide
Only one thing I got to do
Got to get close to you
Every day that passes
I try to hide my sorrow
My tears will come as surely as tomorrow

My tears will come as surely as tomorrow
Nothing in this world will ever bring me down again,
Iron will:
No-one is gonna rob me of my self-respect, no way.
Tomorrow is another day... my day.
I regain my iron will
Forged in the primal fire
No institution can hold me,
No government can own me,
No superstar of politics is gonna vandalize my mind.
Look down on me from a great height if you must...
I regain my iron will
Forged in the primal fire
Now hear this, ye gods of this world
Your system had me in chains
Now hear this, ye gods of this world...
Count the cost or pay the price.
I am holding on to what I love and I will never ever quit
I regain my iron will
Forged in the primal fire
