Forward March Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In life, you're moving forward but sometimes for the worse
Always keep a step ahead, never in reverse
The cards are stacked against you in everything you do
But you try to get out alive when you don't have a clue
You always feel the tension breathing at your back
To be the best that you can be, to be on the attack
Kicking down the wall and kicking your face in
Means I'm moving forward, my new life can begin
[Chorus]
Forward march in your face
Taking back, taking place
Before you die, living fast
Take a chance, hauling ass
Forward march in your face
Taking back, taking place
Before you die, living fast
Take a chance, hauling ass
[Post-Chorus]
Forward march
Forward march
Forward march
Never move in reverse
[Bridge]
Here I am
I'm moving straight fuckin' forward
And I'm taking all the steps, blowin' right past you
I'm never gonna back down to you
And all your people who think that you're the best
No one can beat you
Well I've got some news for you, you motherfucker
There's a new man in town who isn't any sucker
So if you don't back down
I'll put my bat to an angry motherfucker such as you
[Verse 2]
Now I'm gonna wipe out all those who say they're first
I'll be the first in line, my attitude's the worst
Because I am so spoiled and never second best
I will leave you in the dust and lay your ass to rest
So never underestimate the mind of evil thoughts
I will bring you down, spit you out before I'm caught
Because I have the power and the upper hand
Everybody in the way will know that I'm the man
[Chorus]
Forward march in your face
Taking back, taking place
Before you die, living fast
Take a chance, hauling ass
Forward march in your face
Taking back, taking place
Before you die, living fast
Take a chance, hauling ass
[Post-Chorus]
Forward march
Forward march
Forward march
Never move in reverse
[Bridge]
Here I am
I'm moving straight fuckin' forward
And I'm taking all the steps, blowin' right past you
I'm never gonna back down to you
And all your people who think that you're the best
No one can beat you
Well I've got some news for you, you motherfucker
There's a new man in town who isn't any sucker
So if you don't back down
I'll put my bat to an angry motherfucker such as yourself
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 1]
In life, you're moving forward but sometimes for the worse
Always keep a step ahead, never in reverse
The cards are stacked against you in everything you do
But you try to get out alive when you don't have a clue
You always feel the tension breathing at your back
To be the best that you can be, to be on the attack
Kicking down the wall and kicking your face in
Means I'm moving forward, my new life can begin
[Chorus]
Forward march in your face
Taking back, taking place
Before you die, living fast
Take a chance, hauling ass
Forward march in your face
Taking back, taking place
Before you die, living fast
Take a chance, hauling ass
[Outro]
Never, never, never move in reverse
Never, never, never move in reverse
Never, never, never move in reverse
Never, never, never move in reverse
Tempo of the Damned Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When you feel the darkness calling out your name
Don't try to fight the power surge
Don't you laugh, for this is not a game
You're powerless, don't resist the urge
So many black hearts answering the call
Legions of the musically possessed
Congregations joining in our free-for-all
Unleashing all the rage they've repressed
[Chorus]
Come to us, succumb to lust
Giving in to our ministry of sin
You know the drill, do as you will
Dance like the demons of the din
All will yearn for our nocturne
The dawning of our cult is at hand
Come and pray, we know the way
Bow to the tempo of the damned
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
We are all leaders of the horde
Keeper of the apes of wrath
Heed the call of the volume lord
High priest of the bloodbath
Serve unto us, surrender us your souls
Rewards you'll receive
And when the tempo has taken control
Even the heretics will believe
[Chorus]
Come to us, succumb to lust
Giving in to our ministry of sin
You know the drill, do as you will
Dance like the demons of the din
All will yearn for our nocturne
The dawning of our cult is at hand
Come and pray, we know the way
Bow, bow, bow to the tempo of the damned
