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

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

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

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
6.
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
8.
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

about

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!
