Like Steel
03:29
|

I've been with you for so long
Your life was shaped by my song
A shadow in the dark
With the razor teeth of a shark
Like steel ripping through thin air
Sharp nails grasping for your hair
You can feel, but you can’t see
Death approaching invisibly
Like steel
I am the fear you bear within
Sharpened steel that breaks the skin
From what you are, you have no shield
The blade inside is mine to wield
You know I hunger for your blood
Fester in your soul to rot
You can feel, but you can't see
Death approaching invisibly
Like steel
Cold sweat running down your spine
No escape, you’re already mine
Try to scream, you make no sound
I’m gonna, gonna hunt you down
Like steel ripping through your skin
The pain is making your head spin
You can feel, but you can’t see
The death that came invisibly
Like steel

It Covers All
02:20

I’m gonna wake you!
I’m gonna take you!
I’m gonna take you there
I gotta have you!
I’ve got to have you
I gotta have you in me
And the sand gets everywhere
Between your thighs and in your hair
And it gets stuck in the blood
Covering my hands
And down onto the sand
All across the land
It covers all
I’m gonna break you
I’m gonna shape you
I’m gonna make you see
At first you breathe
Then you cease
I'll give you peace
And the sand gets everywhere
Between your thighs and in your hair
And it gets stuck in the blood
Covering my hands
And down onto the sand
All across the land
It covers all
I’m gonna wake you!
I’m gonna take you!
I’m gonna take you there
I gotta have you!
I’ve got to have you
I gotta have you in me
And the sand gets everywhere
Between your thighs and in your hair
And it gets stuck in the blood
Covering my hands
And down onto the sand
All across the land
It covers all

She Won't Be Coming Home
02:45
|
|||
My soul is hellbound
For mistreating you
If you forgive me
Then maybe I can too
But I'm a filthy hound
I'm a filthy hound
It's just plain cigarettes and whiskey from here on
I got morning shivers
And I shake
As the hair of the dog
that bit me
She howls me awake
Howls me awake
Oh my, she won't be coming home tonight
Verse
When you're low
And you’ve got nowhere to go
You just gotta get high
Nothing matters anymore
So, to hell with it all
To hell with it all

Road Machine
03:09
|
|||
See the dust clouds in the distance
Thunder rolling down the mountains
Rubber pounding on the pavement
These beasts are in their element
Here comes the roadmachine
Here it comes; loud and mean!
Here comes the roadmachine
Here it comes, alright!
Hear the revving of the engines
Hear their power roar
The backfire shotgun blast
Death dealing, iron boar
They are burning down your world
So try and save your kin
Yet another futile act
See your end begin
See the dustclouds in the distance
Thunder rolling down the mountains
Rubber pounding on the pavement
These beasts are in their element
Here comes the roadmachine
Here it comes; loud and mean!
Here comes the roadmachine
Here it comes, alright!
Another trail of burning rubber
Another wake of death
Another city left ruins
Another dying breath

Into the Night
02:54
|
|||
I’m running away from the light
All I leave behind will die
Fly into the night
I curse the daylight
As I say my last goodbyes
Fly into the night
Into the night
Shaking off the past
Cracked teeth are grinning
My speed is unsurpassed
I’m hitting the road
My wheels are spinning
I’m gonna have a blast
I’m taming the beast
Or it might be winning
This duo wasn’t made to last
But I’m on the road
My wheels keep spinning
I’m going nowhere fast

Over and Over Again
02:44
|
|||
Clock in now, clock out
Over and over and over again
Full speed, all the time
Go, go, go
This life was never mine
Cross those ’T’s, dot those ‘I’s
Work, work, work
No time to live my life
My mind’s all gone
All I feel’s bereft
Of a life worth living
I can’t find no rest
Stealing glances, at the clock
Seems like time’s slowing down
And I’m still, still right here
Waiting for the final bell to sound
My will’s all gone
All I feel’s regret
Of a life lost living
Already dead

Cruel Lover
02:51
|
|||
You've such a hard cover
Could never steal a smile
And I just had to make you mine
I'd go the extra mile
But you're such a cruel lover
Playing with my heart
Every time you look at me
You tear my soul apart
Cruel lover!
You're such a heartbreaker
The devil's on your back
He's got his eyes on me
Ready to attack
And I feel the danger
Cause I'm a lover man
But you got me drawing blood
Just to take your hand
Cruel lover!
You're such a cruel lover
Stringing me along
And this shit’s been going on
For far too long
You're such a cruel lover
But I just want more
And I've already left
All my sense at the door

Burn this City Down
02:31
|
|||
Let’s go!
Burn this city, burn this city down
Satan’s on my shoulder
I’m behind the wheel
Street lights are flashing by
Reflecting in the steel
Every curb
Every turn
Will be conquered
When we burn this city down
Burn this city, burn this city down
This beast and I
Will rid these streets
Of any rivalry
Your disease
We’ve got a thirst
To be quenched
By blood and fire
You will be cleansed
Every curb
Every turn
Will be conquered
When we burn this city down
Burn this city, burn this city down

Wolf, Woman
03:24
|
|||
As the last light of the day
Slowly fades and is taken away
She comes with the night air
Her black hair and her devil’s stare
Too intrigued to feel the fright
The wolf is at my door tonight
So should I open up my arms
To the storm of her deadly charms
I don't know
Oh, I don't know
How do you know if she's wolf or woman?
Is she, is she wolf or woman?
How do you know if she's wolf or woman?
How do you know, do you know, do you know?
How can I ever resist
The bared teeth at my wrist?
How can I choose the light of the day
If it comes to take her away?
I don't know
Oh, I don't know
How do you know if she's wolf or woman?
Is she, is she wolf or woman?
How do you know if she's wolf or woman?
How do you know, do you know, do you know?

Polluter
02:59

Anti human
Anti life
My misanthropy
Will bring eternal night
The way the world is turning
Pretty soon it will be burning
Just gotta keep this motor running
‘Cause we don’t know no other way
Just gotta keep those pistons pumping
Or there’ll be hell to pay
I’m the polluter
I ain’t got no future
I’m the polluter, alright
I am the polluter
So fuck the future
I’m the polluter, alright
Eyes that water
Bleeding nose
My lungs collapse
I know the end is close
The way the world is turning
Won’t be long before it’s burning
Just gotta keep this motor running
‘Cause we don’t know no other way
Just gotta keep those pistons pumping
Or there’ll be hell to pay
I’m the polluter
I ain’t got no future
I’m the polluter, alright
I am the polluter
So fuck the future
I’m the polluter, alright
Just gotta keep this motor running
‘Cause we don’t know no other way
Just gotta keep those pistons pumping
And let this world decay
If we keep to our old ways
There’ll be hell to pay

Dead Night
03:54
|
|||
My heart’s pumping gasoline
Squeeze to control the flow of oxygen
I only live when I’m breathing the fire
The rushing speed takes me higher and higher
On and on, chasing the thrill
Turn the throttle, heading in for the kill
Close enough to see the whites of your eyes
And hear you scream just before you die
Dead nights
Like a straight razor splitting the night
Creatures caught dead in my sights
Voices calling through the wind
Urging me to give in
Pushing on, going faster and faster
There only now, no before or after
I no longer know where I end
And the machine begins

Taunus Copenhagen, Denmark
Two wheels or four; this beast is definitely a greasy, engine driven speed machine! With chuggin' guitar riffs in the
forefront there's a nod towards both motor madness and the rock gods of old.
Taunus is fresh blood on the Copenhagen rock scene; strap in for the ride!
