Life In Hell [Intro] Busted, caught red-handed again You can't be trusted, born to lose, you'll never win You're so corrupted, you stand before us condemned So maladjusted to the world we're living and dying in [Verse 1] Spy versus spy, you will never have friends You deny, the truth of where you've never been You get caught, and then the "blame game" begins [Pre-Chorus] A couple drinks, and then you'll feel okay A couple pills makes the world go away What the hell, you'll die anyway, and you'll say [Chorus] I'm a disease, and I'm addicted to myself I'm all I need, I'm gonna live and die in Hell, ha!

[Bridge] There's no reason left to say goodbye There's no reason left to live or die Judgment's waiting, it's the end of the line Your existence and this twisted game The definition of criminally insane It won't be long until you do it again, you'll see [Outro] I'm a disease (Life in Hell) I'm all I need (Die in Hell) I'm a disease (Life in Hell) I'm all I need (Die in Hell) I'm a disease (Life in Hell) I'm all I need (Die in Hell) I'm a disease (Life in Hell) I'm all I need (Die in Hell) 03. Night Stalkers [feat. Ice-T] [Verse 1: Dave Mustaine] Concealed in the night from the light of the moon Undetected between the heavens, the stars, and the seas They seize the night when it's dark, like inside a tomb Faintly, their flat black body armor gleams, light it up [Verse 2: Dave Mustaine] From verdict, to deliverance, to retribution To the very last beat of a dead man’s pulse You can hear the thunder roll, you can hear the engines roar It causes thе ground to quake, to buck and convulse [Chorus: Dave Mustaine] Lights out in the dеsert Battle-born, ready to fight Your death waits in the dark And it stalks the night Night Stalkers [Verse 3: Dave Mustaine] The angels of death ride the waves of the air You barely see the pilots on this "zero-illum" night The avenger's ready, now, as the targets growing near Tracer bullets, shot from the ground, behind enemy lines [Verse 4: Dave Mustaine] Blacked out, we're under radio silence Night vision on, green halos a’ glow It's killing time, another lesson in violence Bodies pile up, and adrenaline starts to flow [Chorus: Dave Mustaine] Lights out in the desert Battle-born, ready to fight Your death waits in the dark And it stalks the night Night Stalkers [Post-Chorus: Ice-T] Yo, when you hear four MH-47 And Black Hawk helicopters coming in low In the dark of night Loaded with Rangers And Delta Force Special Ops shooters Locked and loaded Game's over, bitches Got ya in my night vision 'Bout to let this 30 mm canon go You've never seen us coming So there's no chance of running [Bridge: Dave Mustaine] Nothing you do can stop them They're gonna get ya, wanted dead or alive You can run, but you know they will find you "Death waits in the dark," and they own the night [Chorus: Dave Mustaine] Lights out in the desert Battle-born, ready to fight Your death waits in the dark And it stalks the night The night [Verse 5: Dave Mustaine] Hydra rockets are all locked and loaded Laser-guided Hellfire missiles are ready and armed Itchy fingers on thirty mike-mike triggers They enter the fight, with all of their targets acquired [Verse 6: Dave Mustaine] Flying in "formation" like a black snake Slithering closely over the nap of the earth Slicing the silvery-blueish night fog to ribbons The time has come to return dirt back to the dirt, yeah 04. Dogs Of Chernobyl [Verse 1] It was springtime The minutes simply drifting away Then everything stopped in the world [Pre-Chorus 1] (Fallout) Radioactive clouds (Fallout) Hides the exclusion zone (Fallout) And you were nowhere to be found [Chorus] I see your face, wherever I turn There's blood on my lips, as my eyes start to burn You vanished, and left me behind Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl Where did you go? [Verse 2] Nuclear winter is here Reactor four's still belching clouds Thеre's no one left to hеar a sound [Pre-Chorus 2] (On and on, fallout) On and on, I keep searching for you (But I know, fallout) I know you're never coming back (Not for me, fallout) Not for me, or for anyone, anywhere, anyway [Chorus] I see your face, wherever I turn There's blood on my lips, as my eyes start to burn You vanished, and left me behind Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl Where did you go? I see your face, wherever I turn My hair's falling out, as my skin starts to burn You vanished, and left me behind Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl Where did you go? [Verse 3] Vault breach, too close is dead, massive exposure I must escape, and navigate this concrete enclosure No warning, and no pain, only shock and then dread No one coming, no one going, I'm alive with the dead [Verse 4] Nausea overwhelms my brain, distance is the goal Stomach spasms, leaking gut, I have lost all control Saliva gurgling, I'm retching, till I overwhelm the bowl I ask God, in repentance, "Do you still want my soul?" [Verse 5] Bodies strewn everywhere, no need for cremation Daylight coming into view, I sense there's no salvation Stagger out into the open, my eyes fixed and staring Armed patrol, red lights on, the sirens are a' blaring [Verse 6] I am the walking dead, and I'm taken into safety They ask the time of death, because my skin's looking pasty Transfusions, test tubes, and clinical eyeing Purulence and decay, my deathly complying [Outro] Blankets of smoke, orifices bleed Bloating bellies, and legs getting weak Cerebral swelling, organs liquifying Acute radiation, this is how they die This is how they die This is how they die 05.
