--'THE NEW ORDER' LYRICS--

(Skolnick, Peterson)

Takers of humanity, elders paranoid

The time is now

Give up this world you once destroyed

Society versus the underground

Their battles fought and lost

The time has come

To rule the world at any cost

For the past it's too late

Cause the world can't control fate

Shadows cast loud and clear

Tell the world the new order's here

Cities turn to battlefields

A deadly spell is cast

Corpses falling one by one

Until the last

The preacher speaks of prophecy

So many years before

No one escapes their punishment

The gods of war

For the past it's too late

Cause the world can't control fate

Shadows cast loud and clear

Tell the world the new order's here

Death is like an empty space

Fell no thoughts of fear

The future cries

As mother nature sheds a tear

The world becomes a prisoner

A victim of its crime

The human race is now a race

Against time

For the past it's too late

Cause the world can't control fate

Shadows cast loud and clear

Tell the world the new order's here
