The Ultimate Sin
Album - 22 febbraio 1986 - Debaser id 22366

Trapped in a lonely body
I'm losing control
Can't show my emotions
And I'm losing my soul
Could it be that I'm obsessed with feeding my disease
I couldn't make it know the hidden things no one sees

Yeah
Loser, I'm a secret loser
Loser, I'm a secret loser

Fighting a losing battle
Pretending to win
Repenting to holy unknowns
Pretending to sin
All I do is hide the wounds where blood just won't congeal
Couldn't ever take my soul 'cos it isn't there to steal

Yeah, Loser, I'm a secret loser
Loser, I'm a secret loser

Though I'm the loser
There is no winner
There's nothing left to win
The hidden reasons
Now in deletion
Are lost in sin
So heed my warning
The time is dawning
I'll tell you here's the twist
The truth is lying
Below the surface
I don't exist

Loser, I'm a secret loser
Loser, I'm a secret loser

Seeing is not believing
It don't mean a thing
Although it appears to be that
The loser is king
I can understand that what you see
You think is real
But underneath the surface is a wound
That cannot heal

Yeah, loser, I'm a secret loser
Loser, I'm a secret loser
Loser, I'm a secret loser
Loser, I'm a secret loser
Loser, I'm a secret loser

Like moths to a flame
Is man never gonna change
Time's seen untold aggression
And infliction of pain
If that's the only thing that's stopping war

Then thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb

Nuke ya nuke ya

War is just another game
Tailor made for the insane
But make a threat of their annihilation
And nobody wants to play
If that's the only thing that keeps the peace

Then thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb

Nuke ya nuke ya

Today was tomorrow yesterday
It's funny how the time can slip away
The face of the doomsday clock
Has launched a thousand wars
As we near the final hour
Time is the only foe we have

When war is obsolete
I'll thank god for the war's defeat
But any talk about hell freezing over
Is all said with tongue in cheek
Until the day the war drums beat no more

Then thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb

Nuke ya nuke ya

Won't you listen
'Cos I'm at it again
Lightning striking and on that you can depend
They say that lightning never strikes the same place twice
Gods of thunder sit and watch the event

You know I take no prisoners
My back's to the wall
You know I must be going
When destiny calls
Until I feel that thunder shattering my brain
I won't stop

Rockin' all night, rockin' all night
Until the lightning strikes again
Rockin' all night, rockin' all night
Until the lightning strikes again

Tell your mamma that you're gonna be late
But not to worry we'll just be rockin' all night
The lighting strikes before you hear the thunder roar
We're becoming the children of the night

I'm not apologizing
I am what I am
There is no compromising
I don't give a damn
Until I feel the thunder boiling in my veins
I won't stop

Rockin' all night, rockin' all night
Until the lightning strikes again
Rockin' all night, rockin' all night
Until the lightning strikes again

Oh no I've lost control
Here we go
It's only rock 'n' roll

The silver light is flashing
As all turns to gold
In my head voice screaming
And I'm being told
If you will only listen you will hear them too
I won't stop

Rockin' all night, rockin' all night
Until the lightning strikes again
Rockin' all night, rockin' all night
Until the lightning strikes again

If none of us believe in war
Then can you tell me what the weapon's for
Listen to me everyone
If the button is pushed
There'll be nowhere to run

Giants sleeping giants winning wars
Within their dreams
Till they wake when it's too late
And in god's name blaspheme

Killer of giants threatens us all
Mountains of madness standing so tall
Marches of protest not stopping the war
Or the killer of giants
The killer of giants

Mother nature people state your case without its worth
Your seas run dry your sleepless eyes are turning red alert

Killer of giants threatens us all
Mountains of madness standing so tall
Rising so proudly it has nowhere to fall
This killer of giants
This killer of giants

Killer of giants threatens us all
Mountains of madness standing so tall
Marches of protest not stopping the war
Oh the killer of giants
Oh the killer of giants
Killer of giants
Killer of giants

I hear you breathing though you're so far away
Can you just go where you're going to
I couldn't give a damn or two about a fool like you
That's true
Are you just too cool no you're just perfectly cold
And what goes around still comes around
I think it's all summed up and down in a fool like you
That's true
Is there a reason for the way that you are
Or does it just come naturally
To have an idiosyncrasy and be a fool like you
That's true

You're hearing what you want to hear
Misunderstanding all you see
And attitude in all of us
Is it really you and me

He is hiding residing deep within the crowd
A hand out he'll pull you down

You've been found guilty Committed ever crime
But still they say you must go free
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
That's true

By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
That's true
By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
That's true

Out on the street
I'm stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill
But it doesn't seem right
Something there I can't believe in

Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them
I can hear them
Vanishing memories of things that were said
They can't try to hurt me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
A shot in the dark always creeping up on you

Taught by the powers
That preach over me
I can hear their empty reason
I wouldn't listen
I learnt how to fight
I opened up my mind to treason

But just like the wounded
And when it's too late
They'll remember
They'll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
A shot in the dark
Nothing that you can do
A shot in the dark
Always creeping up on you
All right
