Lyrics and Vocals written and performed by: SHOOTIE HG
Music written and performed by: Tetsuya Shibata
Here's how this works, the verse is sung, okay? THEN the guitar plays it's riff as
(twice[as indicated) not WITH the lyrics. And yes, I DID make sure this riff is correct, If
correct, Tetsuya plays this song on a LINE6. The setting that best sounds like the
is on a LINE6 Spider amp with the distortion knob turned to "Insane" make sure the
is red, not green. This tab harmonizes with the song, so don't e-mail me complaints that
doesn't sound right.
If it doesn't sound right, then tune your damn guitar to DROP D.
thank you, and enjoy the song.
Legend:
s=slide
p=pull off
h=hammer on
"Steel a soul for a second chance
But you will never become a man
"My chosen torture makes me stronger
In a life that craves the hunger
A Freedom and a quest for life
Until the end the judgment night"

all the way down on the guitar)

(Continue this riff until the end of the song, even when the demonic vocals come in.)
(Demonic vocals under choral vocals)
"Life of vengeance, a passive test
Until the grave I will rest
Engage the pressure until it crumbles
The existence of the lifeless black souls"
"Onward to the sacred battlefield
Where justification and limits are revealed
Tools of steel in rage they conquer
Weed out the killing of victim's stalker"
"The powers proven to end the madness
Upon I take it to end the savage
The rays of light a truth of meaning
To my father the blood is pleading"
"A justice rage for all to feel
With innocent cries and hatred squeals
The gore of evil seems to satisfy
When slain an maimed and pacified"
"My chosen torture makes me stronger
In a life that craves the hunger
A Freedom and a quest for life
Until the end the judgment night"
"Watch the footsteps but never follow
If you want to live tomorrow
Steal a soul for a second chance
But you will never become a man"
That's the song, enjoy!
