The opening theme for the X-Men cartoon from the 90s is considered to be one of the most badass cartoon series themes of all time, but it turns out you don’t have to go very far to find one that’s even more extreme.

Lyrics: (Via Animelyrics)
Shock! Slash with a knife fortified by lies
Shock! A city that gulps down dreams is glittering
Sharpen your body with hatred and strife
They’re coming to attack you secretly in the middle of the night!
Break out!
Cry! In the valley between buildings lie the sighs of sinners
Cry! They’re carried away by the wind as the city looks away
As soon as the confusion starts, go wild like a raging storm
They dirty their hands in treachery, losing their souls!
Break out!
Cry for the moon!
Why do humans indulge in such disguises?
Sharpen your body with hatred and strife
They’re coming to attack you secretly in the middle of the night!
Break out!
Cry for the moon
Cry for the moon!
