The Fallen - the officially unreleased track from the album

1. TRASHED
It really was a meeting The bottle took a beating The ladies of the manor Watched me climb into my car and I was going down the track about a hundred and five They had the stopwatch rolling I had the headlights blazing I was really alive And yet my mind was blowing I drank a bottle of tequila and I felt real good I had the tape deck roaring But on the twenty-fifth lap at the canal turn I went off exploring I knew I wouldn't make it the car just wouldn't make it I was turning tires burning The ground was in my sky I was laughing the bitch was trashed And death was in my eye I had started pretty good and I was feeling my way I had the wheels in motion There was Peter and the Greenfly laughing like drains Inebriation The crowd was roaring I was at Brands Hatch In my imagination But at the canal turn I hit an oily patch Inebriation I was turning tires burning The ground was in my sky I was laughing the bitch was trashed And death was in my eye Ooh Mr. Miracle, you saved me from some pain I thank you Mr. Miracle, I won't get trashed again Ooh, can you hear my lies Don't you bother with this fool just laugh into my eyes I was turning tires burning The ground was in my sky I was laughing the bitch was trashed And death was in my eye Ooh Mr. Miracle, you saved me from some pain I thank you Mr. Miracle, I won't get trashed again Ooh, can you hear my lies Don't you bother with this fool just laugh into my eyes I went back to the bar and hit the bottle again But there was no tequila Then we started on the whiskey just to steady our brains 'Cos there was no tequila And as we drank a little faster at the top of our hill We began to roll And as we got trashed we were laughing still Well bless my soul

3. DISTURBING THE PRIEST
Let's try getting to the sky Hang on or you're going to die Sour life can turn sweet It's laying at your feet Sweet child with an innocent smile Watches closely all the while Don't be fooled when he cries Keep looking at the eyes Good life is contradiction Because of the crucifixion If you're ready and have the need I will take your soul and plant my seed You just gotta listen to the night at the ending of the day You just gotta listen to the night as safety slips away Moving out of sight are the things you need to see to feel And as they slip away becoming so unreal unreal You just gotta listen to the night as you're going up the stairs You just gotta listen to the night and don't forget to say your prayers And as you lose control to the eyes in dark disguise And icy fingers send electric lies lies We're disturbing the priest Won't you please come to our feast Do we mind disturbing the priest Not at all, not at all, not in the least Do we mind disturbing the priest Not at all, not at all, not in the least The force of the devil is the darkness the priest has to face The force of the night will destroy him but will not disgrace To get into his mind and to his soul you gotta set alight The flames of doubt so deep inside inside The devil and the priest can't exist if one goes away It's just like the battle of the sun and the moon and night and day The force of the devil, that's we're all told to fear Watch out for religion when he gets too near too near We're disturbing the priest Won't you please come to our feast Do we mind disturbing the priest Not at all, not at all, not in the least Good life is contradiction Because of the crucifixion If you're ready and have the need I will take your soul and plant my seed Let's try getting to the sky Hang on or you're going to die Sour life can turn sweet It's laying at your feet Sweet child with an innocent smile Watches closely all the while And when he cries Keep looking at the eyes

5. ZERO THE HERO
Accept the fact that you're second rate Life is easy for you It's all served up on a gold plated plate And we don't even have to talk to you Your face is normal, that's the way you're bred And that's the way you're going to stay Your head is firmly nailed to your TV channel But someone else's finger's on the control panel What you gonna be, what you gonna be brother Zero the Hero Don't you wanna be, don't you wanna be brother Zero the Hero When you gonna be, when you gonna be brother Zero the Hero Impossibility impissibolity mother Really a hero You sit there watch it all burn down It's easy and breezy for you You play your life to a different sound No edge no edge you got no knife have you Your life is a six-lane highway to nowhere You're going so fast you're never ever Gonna get down there Where the heroes sit by the river With a magic in their music as they eat raw liver What you gonna be, what you gonna be brother Zero the Hero Don't you wanna be, don't you wanna be brother Zero the Hero When you gonna be, when you gonna be brother Zero the Hero Impossibility impissibolity mother Really a hero You stand there captain we all look You really are mediocre You are the champion in the Acme form book But I think you're just a joker Your facedown life ain't so much of a pity But the luv-a-duckin' way you're walkin' around The city with your balls and your head full of nothing It's easy for you sucker but you really need stuffing What you gonna be, what you gonna be brother Zero the Hero Don't you wanna be, don't you wanna be brother Zero the Hero When you gonna be, when you gonna be brother Zero the Hero Impossibility impissibolity mother Really a hero

6. DIGITAL BITCH
She wears her leather just to satisfy She really throws it around There ain't one thing she can't afford to buy She's the richest bitch in town Her big fat daddy was a money machine He made a fortune from computers She's got more money than I've ever seen But she's a greedy emotional looter Keep away from the digital bitch Keep away from the digital bitch Keep away from the digital bitch She's so rich, the digital bitch She's got five rollers and a fine estate A big house up on the hill She throws parties just to celebrate Her life is just one enormous thrill She buys poor people just to have around She has a trophy for each lover The bitch is rich but baby pound for pound She's got a lot more to discover Maybe she could please me if I saw beneath her veil But she's just an imitation woman up for sale She got so famous that she's on TV She's got a real professional smile But I switch over 'cos she ain't for me She disturbs me all the while She looks so happy but she's got it wrong She's always going faster She sings her life to such a different song She needs a loving and dominant master Keep away from the digital bitch Keep away from the digital bitch Keep away from the digital bitch She's so rich, the digital bitch

7. BORN AGAIN
As you look through my window Deep into my room At the tapestries all faded Their vague and distant glories Concealed in the gloom The icy fingers of forgotten passions Softly brushing my lips At the tips of my primitive soul As you look through my door Deep into my room Can you feel the mighty wall of power It's waiting, waiting in the gloom The distant shadows of forgotten champions Those who live in me still And will rise when we challenge and kill Born again You'll be born again Look at this prince of evil Fighting for your mind Fighting all the priests of shame For the thrust of my challenge is aimed At the hearts of mutant gods Who think we're all the same They're controlling our minds And they use us for fortune and fame As you look through my window Deep into my room At your future and freedom The grey and plastic retards all floating in circles And as you taste the fruits of new sensations Softly brushing your lips As we rise when we challenge and kill Born again You'll be born again Born again You'll be born again If you want to be king for a day Just do what I say Born again You'll be born again Everybody's got to think like a hunter Just search for your prey Born again You'll be born Be alive through the night and the day Just do it my way

8. HOT LINE

10. THE FALLEN
I’m turning around and around I’m falling down and there is no sound I said fear grips my mind Tears will make me blind I’m trapped in a falling dream Alone with a silent scream Tumbling through dead of night I’m falling right out of sight I’m flying in water; it’s all around I’m falling slowly through the ground Eagles nest near by Even in my sky Trapped in a falling dream Alone with a silent scream Tumbling through dead of night I’m falling right out of sight I’m reaching out in the darkness I’m trying to reach for your hand But every time I get near you You’re gone and I don’t understand You know I’ve fallen, I’ve fallen It’s dark and I’m blind O yes, I’ve fallen, I’ve fallen Oh, oh, oooooh, ooooooooh, hahaha It’s night time, the night time; the day Oh, life goes on in this rain It keeps me from flying Leads me to die Trapped in a falling dream Alone with a silent scream I’m tumbling through dead of night I’m falling right out of sight I’m dead as I hit the ground
