Testament - The New Order lyrics

[Music & Lyrics - Skolnick, Peterson] [Solo - Skolnick] 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 [Solo - Skolnick] d**h 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
