1. 1. Shadows That Move
2. 2. Welcoming War
3. 3. We Built This Come Death
4. 4. Hail To Fire
5. 5. Battle At Sea

1. Shadows That Move

the us rhythm blows a diseased river flow
yeah it's going to blow a change within you
the us rhythm blows
with change we'll explode
and live

2. Welcoming War

lost in a world
a guided eye to strengthen weakness
throat in noose pain
feel it constricting a lost love
welcome to war
and it grows
ocean lure
fire of mankind
universe
throw it away
destroyer of worlds found pain
welcome to war
and it grows

3. We Built This Come Death

now you see all this time
work nine to five
monday thru friday i'm singing
i sing the blues for you
now i'm standing in the pouring rain
my feet are cold but i cant complain
and i wonder how you have been
i need you love i miss you so
i know it's right but it's always strange
how i scream
all this life's worth all the while
heartache and slave driving pain
i sing the blues for you
now im standing in the pouring rain
my feet are cold but i can't complain
and i wonder how you have been
i need you love i miss you so
i know it's right but it's always strange

4. Hail To Fire

all see light in oceans black
go seek find the red seas fire
blow ship by those sail blind
choosing one loosing blood
you try exchanging
no i dont think so
cannot escape me
no sound reason

5. Battle At Sea

wage no war thou brutal sea
i laugh at you
you can't have me
you will calm and carry me
wage no war thou brutal sea
wage no war
brutal sea
laugh at you
can't have me
