When I stand before you shining
In the early morning sun When I feel the engines roar And I think of what we've done Oh the bittersweet reflection As we kiss the earth goodbye As the waves and echoes of the towns Become the ghosts of time Over borders that divide the Earthbound tribes No creed and no religion Just a hundred winged souls We will ride this thunderbird Silver shadows on the earth A thousand leagues away Our land of birth To Albion's land Coming home when I see the runway lights In the misty dawn the night is fading fast Coming home far away As the vapour trails alight Where I've been tonight You know I will not stay Curving on the edge of daylight Till it slips into the void Waited in the long night dreaming Till the sun is born again Stretch the fingers of my hand Cover countries with my span Just a lonely satellite Speck of dust in cosmic sand Over borders that divide the Earthbound tribes Flown the dark Atlantic Over mariners stormy graves We will ride this thunderbird Silver shadows on the earth A thousand leagues away Our land of birth To Albion's land Coming home when I see the runway lights In the misty dawn the night is fading fast Coming home far away As the vapour trails alight Where I've been tonight You know I will not stay Coming home far away When I see the runway lights In the misty dawn the night is fading fast Coming home far away As the vapour trails alight Where I've been tonight You know I will not stay |

Gotta tell you a story
On a cold winters night You'll be sailin for glory Before you know what is right So come over here now I got a vision for you It's my personal snake oil It's just something I do I'm the jester with no tears And I'm playing on your fears I'm a trickster smiling underneath this mask of love and death The eternal lie I've told About the pyramids of gold I've got you hooked at every turn your money's left to burn You'll be wanting a contract You'll be waiting a while I'd like to give you my contact But that isn't my style Well you only get one chance And it's too good to miss If I gave a lot to ya Then I wouldn't exist Greed, lust and angry pride It's the same old, same old ride The smoke and mirrors visions that you see are just like me I'm a banker's face With just a letter out of place I know someone just like you knows someone just like me El Dorado come and play El Dorado step this way Take a ticket for the ride El Dorado streets of gold See those over sold You've got one last chance to try So gone is the glory And gone is the gold Well if you need a story I've come it has to be told Well you can say I'm a devil And I wouldn't say no But out here on the dark side Hey, on with the show So is told Big and bad and twice as bold This ship of fools is sinking as the cracks begin to grow There is no easy way For an honest man today Which is something you should think of as my life boat sails away El Dorado come and play El Dorado step this way Take a ticket for the ride El Dorado streets of gold See those over sold You've got one last chance to try |

I can hear them floating on the wind
Immortal souls, their weeping saddens me Mother Earth, you know your time is near Awaken lust, the seed is sown and reaped Through the western isle I hear the dead awaken Rising slowly to the call of Avalon The cauldron of the head of Annwyn laced with envy Dark around its edge with pearl and destiny All my days I've waited for the sign The one that brings me closer to the Isle of Avalon I can feel the power flowing through my veins My heart is beating louder, close to Avalon I can hear you, can you hear me? I can feel you, can't you feel me? Fertility Mother Goddess Celebration, sow the seeds of the born The fruit of her body laden Through the corn doll You will pray for them all The image of Mother Goddess Lying dormant in the eyes of the dead The sheaf of the corn is broken End the harvest Throw the dead on the pyre I hear her crying, the tears of an angel The voices I hear in my head Blessed the fruits are the corn of the earth Mother Earth, holy blood of the dead Mother earth I can hear you Sacrifice, now united Rising levels of the tidal lakes protect them Keepers of the Goddess in the underworld Holding powers of the Mystics, deep inside them Nineteen maidens, guardians of the otherworld Mortal conflict born of Celtic legend That apart from seven, none returned from Avalon Mother Earth, I can feel you My rebirth now completed Fertility Mother Goddess Celebration, sow the seeds of the born The fruits of her body laden Through the corn doll You will pray for them all The image of Mother Goddess Lying dormant, in the eyes of the dead The sheaf of the corn is broken End the harvest Throw the dead on the pyre To have the belief of others Looking for the Isle to show them a sign Fertility of all mothers Stood in silence Waiting now for their turn The gateway to Avalon The island where the souls of dead are reborn Brought here to die and be Transferred into the earth And then for rebirth I hear her crying the tears of an angel The voices I hear in my head Blessed the fruits are the corn of the earth Mother Earth, holy blood of the dead The water in rivers and rhynes rises quickly Are flowing and flooding the land The sea shall return once again just to hide them Lost souls on the Isle of the dead |

Sitting, waiting in the falling rain
Getting ready to begin again Wounded, lying, crying Bodies moving, dying All around there is the smell of death and fire Here the planes are coming Hear the soldiers running Killing on a scale to comprehend Why are we here? In this place here to kill Please, God, forgive us for what we have done I always thought I was doing right As of now, I'm not feeling so sure I'm at a place of where I give no grace I'm a soldier of war I sit waiting for my darkest hour to come I cannot think about the things that I have done It shouldn't take a fool to see that I believe Accept the consequence, repent for what I've done You tell me what is certain But I'll tell you what is true You tell me what is honesty When all around is death and cruelty The making of a man is fire Not giving in to our desires Within the truth that lies within the only thing Mother of Mercy Angel of death, desire Mother of Mercy Taking my last breath of fire Mother of Mercy Angel of pain Mother of Mercy Taking my last breath Some say you are a lost cause Some say you're a Saint Just being here's an act of suffering and restraint Walk down the long dark road to ruin, panic not I'll die a lonely death, of that I'm certain of Rivers flow with blood There's nowhere left to hide It's hard to comprehend there's anyone left alive Sick of all the killing and the reek of death Will God tell me what religion is to man? I don't hold with bad religion Understand what's underneath it Now I come to think of it I just don't hold at all, you know it You say you are a holy man But what is it you do? From where I stand is nothing but a hollow man I see Mother of Mercy Angel of death, desire Mother of Mercy Taking my last breath of fire Mother of Mercy Angel of pain Mother of Mercy Taking my last breath Mother of Mercy Angel of death, desire Mother of Mercy Taking my last breath of fire Mother of Mercy Angel of pain Mother of Mercy Taking my last breath I'm just a lonely soldier Fighting in a bloody hopeless war Don't know what I'm fighting Who it is, or what I'm fighting for Thought it was for money Make my fortune, now I'm not so sure Seem to just have lost my way |

I'm stranded in space, I'm lost without trace
I haven't this chance of getting away Too close to the sun and surely will burn Like Icarus before me or so legend goes I'm taking my life, reliving the past There's nothing but wait til' my time comes I've had a good life, I'd do it again Maybe I'll come back some time, my friends For I have lived my life to the full I have no regrets anekatips But I wish I could talk to my family to tell them One last goodbye The final frontier The final frontier The final frontier The final frontier If I could survive to live one more time I wouldn't be changing a thing at all Do more in my life than some do in ten I'd go back and do it all over again For I have lived my life to the full I have no regrets But I wish I could talk to my family and tell them that one last goodbye The final frontier (x4) There isn't much time, must say my last rites Nobody is here to read them to me Must say my goodbyes, if only a line A message to tell them in case they might find But I have filled my life to the full I have no regrets But I wish I could talk to my family to tell them That one last goodbye The final frontier, the final frontier |

Take my eyes, the things I've seen in this world coming to an end
My reflection fades, I'm weary of these earthly bones and skin You may pass through me and leave no trace, I have no mortal face Solar winds are whispering, you may hear me call We can shed our skins and swim into the darkened void beyond. We will dance among the world that orbit stars that aren't our sun All the oxygen that trapped us in a carbon spider's web Solar winds are whispering, you may hear the sirens of the dead Let the elders to their parley meant to satisfy our lust Leaving Damacles still hanging over all their promised trust Walk away from freedoms offered by the jailors in their cage Step into the light, startripping over mortals in their rage Starblind with sun The stars are one We are the light That brings the end of night Starblind with sun The stars are one We are One with the Goddess of the sun tonight The preacher loses face with Christ, religion's cruel device is gone Empty flesh and hollow bones make pacts of love but die alone The crucible of pain will forge the blanks of sin, begin again You are free to choose a life to live or one that's left to lose Virgins in the teeth of God are meat and drink to feed the damned You may pass through me and I will feel the life that you live less Step into my light, startripping, we will rage against the night Walk away from comfort offered by your citizens of death Starblind with sun The stars are one We are the light That brings the end of night Starblind with sun The stars are one We are one With the Goddess of the sun tonight Take my eyes for what I've seen, I will give my sight to you You are free to choose whatever life to live or life to lose Whatever God you know, He knows you better than you. Believe. In your once and future grave, you'll fall endlessly deceived Look into our face reflected in the moonglow in your eyes Remember you can choose to look but not to see and waste your hours You believe you have the time, but I tell you your time is short See your past and future, all the same, and it cannot be bought Starblind with sun The stars are one We are the light That brings the end of night Starblind with sun The stars are one We are one With the Goddess of the sun tonight Take my eyes for what I've seen, I will give my sight to you You are free to choose whatever life to live or life to lose Whatever God you know, He knows you better than you. Believe. In your once and future grave, you'll fall endlessly deceived The preacher loses face with Christ, religion's cruel device is gone Empty flesh and hollow bones make pacts of love but die alone The crucible of pain will forge the blanks of sin, begin again You are free to choose a life to live or one that's left to lose |

Stranger than the comet as it streaks across the sky
Stranger than the truth I know before my open eyes I have dealt in mysteries and trickery of light to entertain Looked into the abyss, called it by its name I have plundered time itself, put the world inside it I'm the mysteries, day and night, divide it A plague of wonders, on your knees beside me Know the secrets, you shall not deride us My dreams of empire from my frozen queen Will come to pass Know me, the Magus, I am Dr. Dee And this is my house I am the master of the tides I shame the mirror in my sight What random music of the spheres Across the years Know this I will return to this land Rebuild where the ruins did stand Chain up the demons set free Strange alchemy Gather round the aimless and the feckless and the lame Hear the master summon up the spirits by their names I curse you Edward Kelley, your betrayal for eternity is damned Know you speak with demons, you cannot command Even as I looked into the glass then I was blinded Burning by the Mortlake shor,e my house my books inside it You have taken up my wife and lain beside her Now the black rain on my house, the timbers burning My dreams of empire from my frozen queen Will come to pass Know me, the Magus, I am Dr. Dee And this was my house I was the keeper of the books I had the knowledge of the scrolls But now through ignorance and fear I cast a shadow through the years Know this I will return to this land Rebuild where the ruins did stand Chain up the demons set free Strange alchemy Know this I will return to this land Rebuild where the ruins did stand Chain up the demons set free Strange alchemy Know this I will return to this land Rebuild where the ruins did stand Restore the knowledge memory Strange alchemy |

As he travels on the beast of burden
And moving up along the mountainside As he gazes looking down the valley No regrets but his pride As he journeys across mountain passes Insignificance sweeps over him His reflection of the beauty 'round him Feeling empty inside He is running from his wildest thoughts He is running from his everything He is looking now to find something Hoping he could be saved He's searching for the answer now It's something that he's managed to avoid up to now Real conviction that he craves He needs to find the answer sooner than later Pushed himself to the limits He had to strive for all the harder things in life But what the cost of giving now? His life, his time are the only things that he has Life is not a rehearsal All he has is the one chance to get it right Leaving really is the only way to know Maybe one day they'll forgive him what he's done But now the pain of lying too early in the grave Destiny, no good to hide away Penance now will be his only way Understand, no good to run away Penance now will be his saving grace He tries to make his peace with God All is forgivable but it's left a little late Trying something that he's not Is it possible to change such a lot? He's taken someone's life away There's not a day goes by he regrets what he's done He should have found another way But the good book says, "An eye for an eye." In reflecting on decisions that were made On the judgements that will haunt him till his grave No one has the right to take another life But in his mind he had no choice, so be it Destiny, no good to hide away Penance now will be his only way Understand, no good to run away Penance now will be his saving grace Destiny, no good to hide away Penance now will be his only way Understand, no good to run away Penance now will be his saving grace Far, far away, the man who would be king Far, far away, the man who would be king So far away, the man who would be king So far away, the man who would be king Far, far away, the man who would be king |

-The Talisman- When I stand and look About the port And contemplate my life, will I Ever see my countrymen again? As the captain calls us on the deck I take my things and walk To the harbourside, I glance back One last time. Fleeing our nation, our problems We leave behind. Ships by the tenfold sail Out on the tide. We are pleased to be out and Embracing the open sea. Free from our troubles And more free from thee. Inheritors unfulfilled reason Behind us. We flee from what is not what Is will be. We flee the earth and face our Harsh reality. Will death be low mist that Hangs on the sea? We run from the evil tongues, rash Judgements, selfish men Never to be seen on these Shores again. As we sail into oceansize And lose sight of all land A face of contentment Around in the air. We're off now to Seek all our fortunes. To the land of our dreams. Riding the waves and the storm Is upon us. The winds lash the sails but The ropes keep them tight. Off in the distance a dark cloud Approaching. None could imagine what there Was to come. No, there's no one going back. No, there's not a second chance. As we strap onto the side We pray to God that we don't die. As we ride the rough seas, As we soak from the ocean waves, I just hope for all our lives And pray that I survive. Four ships are lost in the Stormy conditions. The spirits of the sunken crews, Their phantoms follow us. Spirits, sails, they drive us on Through the all consuming waves. Cold mortality, no weapon Against these ever raging seas. Four leagues and ten and we Hit storms again. We just can't get away from The eye of the storm. The birds outsoar the raging storm But we cannot escape it. Abandoned earth that we Now crave Is many leagues from safe. Holding on for our dear lives And we're praying once again. Rotten luck or just jonahed? The talisman is in my hand. Limbds fatigues, trembling with cold. Blinded from the sea spray salt. Clasping anything we can hold. Heave's rain upon us falls. Twenty days without a meal And ten without fresh water still. Those that didn't die in storms The scurvy rest did slaughter. Westwards the tide. Westwards we sail on. Westwards the tide. Sail by the talisman. We approach the other side Of the ocean with the tide In our favour just for once. Welcome greeting, our new land. The elation in our hearts, The excitement in our veins As we sail towards the coastline Of our golden promised land. Weary limbs fatigued away. I have no life left in me. No more strength and nothing Left to give. Must find the will to live. Never thought that we could Make it. Truly sight of shores divine. The sickness I am dying from. Never wanted it to end this way. Westwards the tide. Westwards we sail on. Westwards the tide. Sail by the talisman. Westwards the tide. Westwards we sail on. Westwards the tide. Sail by the talisman. |

Have you heard what they said on the news today
Have you heard what is coming to us all? That the world as we know it will be coming to an end Have you heard, have you heard? He sees them in the distance when the darkened clouds roll He could feel tension in the atmosphere He would look in the mirror, see an old man now Does it matter they survive somehow They said there's nothing can be done about the situation They said there's nothing you can do at all To sit and wait around for something to occur Did you know, did you know? As he stares across the garden looking at the meadows Wonders if they'll ever grow again The desperation of the situation getting graver Getting ready when the wild wind blows Have you seen what they said on the news today Have you heard what they said about us all Do you know what is happening to just every one of us Have you heard, have you heard? There will be a catastrophe the like we've never seen There will be something that will light the sky That the world as we know it, it will never be the same Did you know, did you know? He carries everything into the shelter not a fuss Getting ready when the moment comes He has enough supplies to last them for a year or two Good to have because you never know They tell us nothing that we don't already know about They tell us nothing that is real at all They only fill us with the stuff that they want Did you know, did you know? He's nearly finished with the preparations for the day He's getting tired; that'll do for now They are preparing for the very worst to come to them Getting ready when the wild wind blows He sees the picture on the wall, it's falling down Upside down He sees a teardrop from his wife roll down her face Saying Grace Remember times they had, they flash right through his mind Left behind Of a lifetime spent together long ago Will be gone They've been preparing for some weeks now For when the crucial moment comes To take their refuge in the shelter Let them prepare for what will come They make a tea and sit there waiting They're in the shelter feeling snug Not long to wait for absolution Don't make a fuss; just sit and wait Can't believe all the lying, All the screens are denying That the moments of truth have begun Can't you see it on the T.V.? Don't believe them in the least bit Now the days of our ending have begun Say a prayer when it's all over Survivors unite, all as one Got to try and help each other Got the will to overcome I can't believe all the lying All the screens are denying That the moments of truth have begun Can't you see it on the T.V.? Don't believe them in the least bit Now the days of our ending have begun When they found them, had their arms wrapped around each other Their tins of poison laying near by their clothes The day they both mistook an earthquake for the fallout Just another when the wild wind blows |

Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason The golden goose is on the loose And never out of season Some blackened pride still burns inside This shell of bloody treason Here's my gun for a barrel of fun For the love of living death. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. The blind men shout let the creatures out We'll show the unbelievers. The Napalm screams of human flames Of a prime time Belsen Feast.....Yeah! As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy, We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with out babies. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. The body bags and little rags of children torn in two And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you, As the Madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song, To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. Midnight all night Lyrics by We are all Anonymous |

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne Got to get up for the coming attack. Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines Remove all the wheel blocks there's no time to waste Gathering speed as we head down the runway Gotta get airborne before it's too late Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving, going in again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers Let off a sharp burst and then turn away Roll over, spin round and come in behind them Move to their blindsides and firing again Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us Ten ME-109's out of the sun Ascending and turning out spitfires to face them Heading straight for them I press my guns. Rolling, turning, diving Rolling, turning, diving, goin' again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high. |

Give me the sense to wonder
To wonder if I'm free Give me a sense of wonder To know I can be me Give me the strength to hold my head up Spit back in their face Don't need no key to unlock this door Gonna break down the walls Break out of this bad place Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see I screamed aloud to the old man I said don't lie don't say you don't know I say you'll pay for your mischief In this world or the next Oh and then he fixed me with a freezing glance And the hell fires raged in his eyes He said do you want to know the truth son - I'll tell you the truth Your soul's gonna burn in the lake of fire Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see |

Fear Of The Dark
Harris I am a man who walks alone And when I'm walking a dark road At night or strolling through the park When the light begins to change I sometimes feel a little strange A little anxious when it's dark. Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there Have you run your fingers down the wall And have you felt your neck skin crawl When you're searching for the light? Sometimes when you're scared to take a look At the corner of the room You've sensed that something's watching you. Have you ever been alone at night Thought you heard footsteps behind And turned around and no-one's there? And as you quicken up your pace You find it hard to look again Because you're sure there's someone there. Watching horror films the night before Debating witches and folklore The unknown troubles on your mind Maybe your mind is playing tricks You sense, and suddenly eyes fix On dancing shadows from behind. Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there. When I'm walking a dark road I am a man who walks alone .......... |

(Harris)
I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time Cos at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole The sands of time for me are running low When the priest comes to read me the last rites I take a look through the bars at the last sights Of a world that has gone very wrong for me Can it be there's been some sort of an error Hard to stop the surmounting terror Is it really the end not some crazy dream Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming It's not easy to stop from screaming But words escape me when I try to speak Tears they flow but why am I crying After all am I not afraid of dying Don't believe that there never is an end As the guards march me out to the courtyard Someone calls from a cell "God be with you" If there's a God then why has he let me die? As I walk all my life drifts before me And though the end is near I'm not sorry Catch my soul cos it's willing to fly away Mark my words please believe my soul lives on Please don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to see the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down there is just a strange illusion |

Can't understand what is happening to me,
This isn't real, this is only a dream, But I never have felt, no I never have felt this way before, I'm looking down on my body below, I lie asleep in the midst of a dream, Is it now could it be that the angel of death has come for me? I can't believe that really my time has come, I don't feel ready, there's so much left undone, And it's my soul and I'm not gonna let it get away. Chorus: Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait, Heaven can wait til another day. [Reapeat chorus] I have a lust for the Earth below And Hell itself is my only foe, 'Cause I've no fear of dying, I'll go when I'm good and ready, I snatch a glimpse of the light's eternal rays, I see a tunnel, I stand amazed, At all of the people standing there in front of me, Into the paths of rightness I'll be led, Is this the place where the living join the dead? I wish I knew this was only just a nightmare. [Chorus *2] Take my hand, I'll lead you to the promised land, Take my hand, I'll give you immortality, Eternal youth, I'll take you to the other side, To see the truth, the path for you is decided. Oh Oh * lots. My body tingles, I feel so strange, I feel so tired, I feel so drained, And I'm wondering if I'll ever be the same again, Is this in limbo or in Heaven or Hell? Maybe I'm going down there as well, I can't accept my soul will drift forever. I feel myself floating back down to Earth, So could this be the hour of my rebirth? Or have I died or will I wake from dreaming? [Chorus] |

Seven ways to win Seven holy paths to hell And your trip begins Seven downward slopes Seven bloodied hopes Seven are you burning fires Seven your desires I am he, the bornless one The fallen angel watching you Babylon, the scarlet whore I'll infiltrate your gratitude Don't you dare to save your son Kill him now and save the young ones Be the mother of birth strangled babe Be the devils own, Lucifer's my name Moonchild - hear the mandrake scream, oh Moonchild - open the seventh seal I count the heads of those unborn The accursed ones I'll find them all If you die by your own hand As a suicide you shall be damned And if you try to save your soul I will torment you, you shall not grow old With every second and passing breath You'll be so alone your soul will bleed to death Moonchild - hear the mandrake scream Moonchild - open the seventh seal Moonchild - you'll be mine soon, child Moonchild - take my hand tonight The twins they are exhausted, seven is this night Gemini is rising as the red lips kiss to bite Seven angels seven demons battle for his soul When Gabriel lies sleeping, this child was born to die One more dies one more lives One baby cries, one mother grieves For all the sins you will commit You'll beg forgiveness and none I'll give A web of fear shall be your coat To clothe you in the night A lucky escape for you young man But I'll see you damned in endless night Moonchild - hear the mandrake scream Moonchild - open the seventh seal Moonchild - you'll be mine soon, child Moonchild - take my hand tonight |

Into the Abyss I'll fall- the eye of Horus
Into the eyes of the night- watching me go Green is the cat's eye that glows- in this Temple Enter the risen Osiris-risen again. Tell me why I had to be a Powerslave I don't wanna die, I'm a God, Why can't I live on? When the Life Giver dies, All around is laid waste. And in my last hour, I'm a slave to the Power of Death. When I was living this lie-Fear was my game People would worship and fall- Drop to their knees. So bring me the blood and red wine For the one to succeed me, for he is a man and a God- And He will die too. Tell me why I had to be a Powerslave I don't wanna die, I'm a God, Why can't I live on? When the Life Giver dies, All around is laid to waste. And in my last hour, I'm a slave to the Power of Death. Now I am cold but a ghost lives in my veins, Silent the terror that reigned- Marbled in stone. A shell of a man God preserved- For a thousand ages, But open the gates of my Hell- I will strike from my grave. Tell me why I had to be a Powerslave I don't wanna die, I'm a God, Why can't I live on? When the Life Giver dies, All around is laid waste. And in my last hour, I'm a slave to the Power of Death, Slave to the Power of Death... Slave to the Power of Death... |

"O God of Earth and Altar
Bow down and hear our cry, Our earthly rulers falter, Our people drift and die, The walls of gold entomb us, The swords of scorn divide, Take not thy thunder from us, But take away our pride." (G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal) Just a babe in a black abyss, No reason for a place like this, The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain, An easy way for the blind to go, A clever path for the fools who know The Secret of the Hanged Man - the smile on his lips. The light of the Blind - you'll see, The venom that tears my spine, The eyes of the Nile are opening - you'll see. She came to me with a serpent's kiss, As the Eye of the Sun rose on her lips, Moonlight catches silver tears I cry, So we lay in a black embrace, And the seed is sown in the holy place And I watched and I waited for the Dawn. The light of the Blind - you'll see, The venom that tears my spine, The eyes of the Nile are opening - you'll see. Bind all of us together, Ablaze with Hope and Free, No storm or heavy weather Will rock the boat you'll see, The time has come to close your eyes And still the sing and rain, For the one who will be King Is the Watcher in the Ring. It is You. |

Hear the rime of the Ancient Mariner
See his eyes as he stops one of three Mesmerises one of the wedding guests Stay here and listen to the nightmares of the Sea. And the music plays on, and the bride passes by Caught by his spell and the Mariner tells his tale. Driven south to the land of the snow and ice To a place where nobody's been Through the snow fog flies the albatross Hailed in God's name, hoping good luck it brings. And the ship sails on, back to the North Through the fog and the ice the albatross follows on The mariner kills the bird of good omen His shipmates cry against what he's done But when the fog clears, they justify him And make themselves part of the crime. Sailing on and on and North across the sea Sailing on and on and North 'till all is calm. The albatross begins with its vengeance A terrible thirst a curse has begun His shipmates blame bad luck on the Mariner About his neck, the dead bird is hung. And the curse goes on and on at sea And the curse goes on and on for them and me. "Day after day, day after day, we stuck nor breath nor motion As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean Water, water, everywhere and all the boards did shrink Water, water, everywhere nor any drop to drink." (Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1798-1834)) There, calls the mariner, there comes a ship over the line But how can she sail with no wind in her sails and no tide. See...onward she comes Onward she nears, out of the sun See...she has no crew She has no life, wait but there's two. Death and she Life in Death, they throw their dice for the crew She wins the Mariner and he belongs to her now. Then...crew one by one They drop down dead, two hundred men She...She, Life in Death. She lets him live, her chosen one. Narrative "One after one by the star dogged moon, too quick for groan or sigh Each turned his face with a ghastly pang, and cursed me with his eye Four times fifty living men (and I heard nor sigh nor groan), With heavy thump, a lifeless lump. they dropped down one by one." (Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1798-1834)) The curse it lives on in their eyes The Mariner he wished he'd die Along with the sea creatures But they lived on, so did he. And by the light of the moon He prays for their beauty not doom With heart he blesses them God's creatures all of them too. Then the spell starts to break The albatross falls from his neck Sinks down like lead into the Sea Then down in falls comes the rain. Hear the groans of the long dead seamen See them stir and they start to rise Bodies lifted by good spirits None of them speak and they're lifeless in their eyes. And revenge is still sought, penance starts again Cast into a trance and the nightmare carries on. Now the curse is finally lifted And the Mariner sights his home Spirits go from the long dead bodies Form their own light and the Mariner's left alone. And then a boat came sailing towards him It was a joy he could not believe The Pilot's boat, his son and the hermit. Penance of life will fall onto Him. And the ship it sinks like lead into the sea And the hermit shrieves the mariner of his sins. The Mariner's bound to tell of his story To tell his tale wherever he goes To teach God's word by his own example That we must love all things that God made. And the wedding guest's a sad and wiser man And the tale goes on and on and on. |

White man came across the sea
Brought us pain and misery Killed our tribes killed our creed Took our game for his own need We fought him hard we fought him well Out on the plains we gave him hell But many came too much for Cree Oh will we ever be set free? Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes Galloping hard on the plains Chasing the redskins back to their holes Fighting them at their own game Murder for freedom a stab in the back Women and children and cowards attack Run to the hills run for your lives Run to the hills run for your lives Soldier blue on the barren wastes Hunting and killing their game Raping the women and wasting the men The only good Indians are tame Selling them whisky and taking their gold Enslaving the young and destroying the old Run to the hills run for your lives (repeat to end) |

Feel the sweat break on my brow
Is it me or is it shadows that are Dancing on the walls Is this a dream or is it now Is this a vision or normality I see Before my eyes I wonder why I wonder how That it seems the powers getting stronger Every day I feel a strength an inner fire But I'm scared I won't be able to control it anymore There's a time to live and a time to die When it's time to meet the maker There's a time to live but isn't it strange That as soon as you're born you're dying Just by looking through your eyes He could see the future penetrating right In through your mind See the truth and see your lies But for all his power couldn't foresee his own demise There's a time to live and a time to die When it's time to meet the maker There's a time to live but isn't it strange That as soon as you're born you're dying... ... and reborn again? |

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to get the memories from my mind What did I see can I believe that what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy Just what I saw in my old dreams were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me Cos in my dreams it's always there the evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair The night was black was no use holding back Cos I just had to see was someone watching me In the mist dark figures move and twist was all this for real or some kind of hell 666 the Number of the Beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised as they start to cry hands held to the sky In the night the fires burning bright the ritual has begun Satan's work is done 666 the Number of the Beast Sacrifice is going on tonight This can't go on I must inform the law Can this still be real or some crazy dream but I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes they seem to mesmerise me...can't avoid their eyes 666 the Number of the Beast 666 the one for you and me I'm coming back I will return And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn I have the fire I have the force I have the power to make my evil take its course |

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through So when you're waiting for the next attack You'd better stand there's no turning back. The bugle sounds and the charge begins But on this battlefield no one wins The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath As I plunge on into certain death. The horse he sweats with fear we break to run The mighty roar of the Russian guns And as we race towards the human wall The screams of pain as my comrades fall We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground And the Russians fire another round We get so near yet so far away We won't live to fight another day. 간주 We get so close near enough to fight When a Russian gets me in his sights He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow A burst of rounds take my horse below. And as I lay there gazing at the sky My body's numb and my throat is dry And as I lay forgotten and alone Without a tear I draw my parting groan |

From the coast of gold, across the seven seas,
I'm travelling on, far and wide, But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself, And all the things I sometimes do, it isn't me but someone else. I close my eyes, and think of home, Another city goes by, in the night, Ain't it funny how it is, you never miss it til it's gone away, And my heart is lying there and will be til my dying day. Chorus: So understand Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years, Face up...make your stand, And realise you're living in the golden years. Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind, Can't ease this pain, so easily, When you can't find the words to say, it's hard to make it through another day, And it makes me wanna cry, and throw my hands up to the sky. Chorus: So understand Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years, Face up...make your stand, And realise you're living in the golden years. |

Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason The golden goose is on the loose And never out of season Some blackened pride still burns inside This shell of bloody treason Here's my gun for a barrel of fun For the love of living death. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. The blind men shout let the creatures out We'll show the unbelievers. The Napalm screams of human flames Of a prime time Belsen Feast.....Yeah! As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy, We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with out babies. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. The body bags and little rags of children torn in two And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you, As the Madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song, To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. Midnight all night Lyrics by We are all Anonymous |

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne Got to get up for the coming attack. Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines Remove all the wheel blocks there's no time to waste Gathering speed as we head down the runway Gotta get airborne before it's too late Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving, going in again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers Let off a sharp burst and then turn away Roll over, spin round and come in behind them Move to their blindsides and firing again Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us Ten ME-109's out of the sun Ascending and turning out spitfires to face them Heading straight for them I press my guns. Rolling, turning, diving Rolling, turning, diving, goin' again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high. |

Give me the sense to wonder
To wonder if I'm free Give me a sense of wonder To know I can be me Give me the strength to hold my head up Spit back in their face Don't need no key to unlock this door Gonna break down the walls Break out of this bad place Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see I screamed aloud to the old man I said don't lie don't say you don't know I say you'll pay for your mischief In this world or the next Oh and then he fixed me with a freezing glance And the hell fires raged in his eyes He said do you want to know the truth son - I'll tell you the truth Your soul's gonna burn in the lake of fire Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see Can I play with madness - the prophet stared at his crystal ball Can I play with madness - there's no vision there at all Can I play with madness - the prophet looked and he laughed at me Can I play with madness - he said you're blind too blind to see |

He's walking like a small child
But watch his eyes burn you away Black holes in his golden stare God knows he wants to go home Children of the damned Children of the damned Children of the damned Children of the damned He's walking like a dead man If he had lived he would have crucified us all Now he's standing on his last step He thought oblivion, well it beckons us all Children of the damned Children of the damned Children of the damned Children of the damned Now it's burning his hands He's turning to laugh Smiles as the flame sears his flesh Melting his face, screaming in pain Peeling the skin from his eyes Watch him die According to plan He's dust on the ground, what did we learn You're children of the damned Your back's against the wall You turn into the light You're burning in the night You're children of the damned Like candles watch them burn Burning in the light You'll burn again tonight Children of the damned |

I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time Cos at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole The sands of time for me are running low When the priest comes to read me the last rites I take a look through the bars at the last sights Of a world that has gone very wrong for me Can it be there's been some sort of an error Hard to stop the surmounting terror Is it really the end not some crazy dream Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming It's not easy to stop from screaming But words escape me when I try to speak Tears they flow but why am I crying After all am I not afraid of dying Don't believe that there never is an end As the guards march me out to the courtyard Someone calls from a cell "God be with you" If there's a God then why has he let me die? As I walk all my life drifts before me And though the end is near I'm not sorry Catch my soul cos it's willing to fly away Mark my words please believe my soul lives on Please don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to see the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down there is just a strange illusion |

I've been looking so long for you now, you won't get away from my grasp.
You've been living so long in hiding. Hiding behind that false mask. You know and I know that you ain't got that long to last, Your looks and feelings are just the remains of your past Standing in the wings there, you wait for the curtain to fall. Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all. I know that you're gonna scratch me and maim me and maul. You know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call. Keep your distance, walk away don't take his bait. Don't you stray don't fade away. Watch your step, he's out to get you Come what may, Don't you stray, don't fade away. I'm running and hiding, in my dreams you're always there. You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the devil you're just out to scare. You damaged my mind and my soul just floats through the air. You haunt me, you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair |

Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with The slaughter of innocence But I will pray for her I will call her name out loud I would bleed for her If only I could see her now Living on a razors edge Balancing on a ledge Living on a razors edge The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on.....

My mother was a queen, my dad I've never seen, I was never meant to be. And now I spend my time looking all around, For a man that's nowhere to be found. Until I find him I'm never gonna stop searching, I'm gonna find my man, gonna travel around. Chorus: 'Cos I'm a wrathchild, well I'm a wrathchild. Yeah I'm a wrathchild.

E = MC squared, you can relate How we made God with our hands All the nations are rising Through acid veils of love and hate Chain letters of Satan Uncertainty lead us all to this All the nations are rising Through acid veils of love and hate Cold fusion and fury Divide and conquer while ye may Others preach and others fall and pray In the bunkers, where we'll die Where the executioners, they lie Bombers launch with no recall Minute warning of the missile fall Take a look at your last sky Guessing you won't have the time to cry Out of the universe A strange love is born Unholy union Trinity reformed Out of the darkness Out of the darkness Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Out of the darkness, brighter than a thousand suns Holy Father, we have sinned |

You lead me on the path, keep showing me the way
I feel a little lost, a little strange today I think I'll take a hold of whatever comes my way Then we'll see what happens, take it day by day I thought I had it all, I had it all worked out Just what my future held that there would be no doubt But then the card came up and I took another turn But I don't know if it's fulfillment that I yearn Tell me what you can hear and then tell me what you see Everybody has a different way to view the world I would like you to know, when you see the simple things To appreciate this life it's not too late to learn Don't want to be here Somewhere I'd rather be But when I get there I might find it's not for me Tell me what you can hear and then tell me what you see Everybody has a different way to view the world I would like you to know, when you see the simple things To appreciate this life it's not too late to learn Tell me what you can hear and then tell me what you see Everybody has a different way to view the world I would like you to know, when you see the simple things To appreciate this life it's not too late to learn Don't want to be here Somewhere I'd rather be But when I get there I might find it's not for me Don't know what I want Or where I want to be Feeling more confused The more the days go by |

Are you a man of peace or a man of holy war
Too many sides to you, don't know which anymore So many full of life, but also filled with pain Don't know just how many will live to breathe again A life that's made to breath destruction or defense A mind that's vain corruption bad or good intent A wolf in sheep's clothing or saintly or sinner Or some that would believe a holy war winner They fire off many shots and many parting blows Their actions beyond a reasoning, only God would know And as he lies in heaven or it could be in hell I feel he's somewhere here or looking from below But I don't know, I don't know Please tell me now what life is Please tell me now what love is Well tell me now what war is Again tell me what life is More pain and misery in the history of mankind Sometime it seems more like the blind leading the blind It brings upon us more of famine, death and war You know religion has a lot to answer for Please tell me now what life is Please tell me now what love is Well, tell me now what war is Again tell me what life is And as they search to find the bodies in the sand They find its ashes that are scattered across the land And as the spirits seem to whistle on the wind A shot is fired somewhere another war begins And all because of it you'd think that we would learn But still the body count, the city fires burn Somewhere theres someone dying in a foreign land Meanwhile the world is crying stupidity of man Tell me why, tell me why Please tell me now what life is Please tell me now what love is Well, tell me now what war is Again tell me what life is Please tell me now what life is Please tell me now what love is Well, tell me now what war is Again tell me what life is For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God Please tell me now what life is Please tell me now what love is Well, tell me now what war is Again tell me what life is Please tell me now what life is Please tell me now what love is Well, tell me now what war is Again tell me what life is For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God For the greater good of God He gave his life for us, he fell upon the cross To die for all of those who never mourn his loss It wasn't meant for us to feel the pain again Tell me why, tell me why |

Tell you a thing
That you ought to know Two minutes of your time Then on you go Tell tale of the men All dressed in black That most of them Not coming back Sent off to the war To play little games And on their return Can't name no names Some strange yellow gas Has played with their minds Has reddened their eyes Removed all the lies And strange as it sounds Death knows no bounds How many get well Only time will tell Only time will tell You lie in your death bed now But what did you bring to the table Brought us only holy sin Utter trust is a deadly thing To the prayer of holy peace We didn't know what was lying underneath So how could we be such fools And to think that we thought you the answer I can't begin to understand in all the lies But on your death bed I can see it in your eyes Just as clear as all the sweat upon your brow It really makes sense I can see it clearly now Tangled up in a web of lies Could have been a way to prophesize Unaware of the consequence Not aware of the secrets that you kept Nothing that we could believe To reveal the facade of faceless men Not a thing that we could foresee Now a sign that would tell us the outcome You had us all strung out with promises of peace But all along your cover plan was to deceive Can it put to rights now, only time will tell Your prophecies will send us all to hell as well Left to all our golden sons All to pick up on the peace You could have given all of them A little chance at least Take the world to a better place Given them all just a little hope Just think what a legacy You now will leave We seem destined to live in fear And some that would say Armageddon is near But where there's a life, well there's hope That man won't self destruct Why can't we treat our fellow man With more respect and a shake of their hands But anger and loathing is rife The death on all sides is becoming a way of life We live in an uncertain world Fear, understanding and ignorance is leading to death Only the corpses are left For vultures that prey on their bones But some are just not wanting peace Their whole life is death and misery The only thing that they know Fight fire with fire, life is cheap But if they do stop to think That man is teetering right on the brink But do you think that they care They benefit from death and pain and despair |

There are secrets that you keep
There are secrets that you keep There are secrets that you tell to me alone I can't reach things I can't see You don't see this strange world quite the same as me Don't deny me what I am Nothing hidden still you fail to see the truth These are things you can't reveal These are things you can't reveal We are part of some strange plan Why the slaughter of the brotherhood of man Infernal sacrifice of hell Fire breathing lead the way Mounds of bodies as they all burn into one Revenge is living in the past Time to look into a new millennium Spiral path leads through the maze Down into the fiery underworld below Fire breathing lead the way Lucifer was just an angel led astray Free your soul and let it fly Give your life to the Lord of Light Keep your secrets and rain on me All I see are mysteries Free your soul and let it fly Give your life to the Lord of Light Keep your secrets and rain on me All I see are mysteries We are not worthy in your black and blazing eyes We gather demons in the mirror every day The bridge of darkness casts a shadow on us all And all our sins to you we give this day Others wait their turn, their lives were meant to last Use yours wisely as the light is fading fast Free your soul and let it fly Mine was caught, I couldn't try Time returns again to punish all of us We are cast out by our bloody father's hand We are strangers in this lonely promised land We are the shadows of the one unholy ghost In our nightmare world the only one we trust Free your soul and let it fly Give your life to the Lord of Light Keep your secrets and rain on me All I see are mysteries Free your soul and let it fly Give your life to the Lord of Light Keep your secrets and rain on me All I see are mysteries |

Hold a halo 'round the world
Golden is the day Princes of the universe Your burden is the way So there is no better time Who will be born today A gypsy child at day break A king for a day Out of the shadows and into the sun Dreams of the past as the old ways are done Oh, there is beauty and surely there is pain But we must endure it to live again Dusty dreams in fading daylight Flicker on the walls Nothing new your life's adrift What purpose to it all? Eyes are closed and death is calling Reaching out its hand Call upon the starlight to surround you Out of the shadows and into the sun Dreams of the past as the old ways are done Oh, there is beuty and surely there is pain But we must endure it to live again Out of the shadows and into the sun Dreams of the past as the old ways are done Oh, there is beauty and surely there is pain But we must endure it to live again Out of the shadows and into the sun Dreams of the past as the old ways are done Oh, there is beauty and surely there is pain But we must endure it to live again Out of the shadows and into the sun Dreams of the past as the old ways are done Oh, there is beauty and surely there is pain But we must endure it to live again A man who casts no shadow has no soul |

In the gloom, the gathering storm abates
In the ships, the gimlet eyes await The call to arms to hammer at the gates To blow them wide throw evil to its fate All summers long, the drills to build the machine To turn men from flesh and blood to steel From paper soldiers to bodies on the beach From summer sands to armageddon's reach Overlord, your master not your God The enemy coast dawning grey with scud These wretched souls puking, shaking fear To take a bullet for those who sent them here The world's alight, the cliffs erupt in flame No escape, remorseless shrapnel rains Drowning men, no chance for a warrior's fate A choking death enter hell's gate Sliding we go, only fear on our side To the edge of the wire and we rush with the tide Oh the water is red with the blood of the dead But I'm still alive, pray to God I survive How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? The rising dead, faces bloated torn They are relieved, the living wait their turn Your number's up, the bullet's got your name You still go on to hell and back again Valhalla waits, Valkyrie's rise and fall The warrior tombs, lie open for us all A ghostly hand reaches through the veil Blood and sand, we will prevail Sliding we go, only fear on our side To the edge of the wire and we rush with the tide Oh, the water is red with the blood of the dead But I'm still alive, pray to God I survive How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through? How long on this longest day Till we finally make it through?

The keys to death and hell
The ailing kingdom doomed to fail The bonds of sin and heart will break The pilgrims course will take Quelling the devil's might And ready for eternal fight Aching limbs and fainting soul Holy battles take their toll Liberty and hope divine Changing the water into wine So to you we bid farewell Kingdom of heaven to hell Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun To courage find and gracious will Deliver good from ill Clean the water, clean our guilt With us do what you will Then will my judge appear Bear no false angel that I hear For only then I will confess To my eternal hell Now give us our holy sign Changing the water into wine So to you we bid farewell Kingdom of heaven to hell Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun Now give us our holy sign Changing the water into wine So to you, we bid farewell Kingdom of heaven to hell Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun |

Let me tell you 'bout my dreams Let me tell you 'bout the things that happen Always real to me Let me tell you of my hope Of my need to reach the sky Let me take you on an awkward journey Let me tell you why Let me tell you why Why should these curses be laid upon me? I won't be forgiven till I can break free What did I do to deserve all this guilt? Pay for my sins with the sale of my soul Demons are trapped all inside of my head My hopes are gone reach for heaven from hell My sins are many, my guilt is too heavy The pressure of knowing of hiding what I know I'm able to see things, things I don't want to see The lives of a thousand souls weigh heavy down on me I know they're crying for help, reaching out The burden of them will take me down as well The sin of a thousand souls not died in vain Reincarnate still in me, live again Someone to save me, something to save me from myself To bring salvation to exorcise this hell Someone to save me, something to save me from myself To bring salvation to exorcise this hell Someone to save me, something to save me from myself A destination away from this nightmare Someone to save me, something to save me from myself To bring salvation to exorcise this hell |

It's the same in every country when you say you're leaving
Left behind the loved ones waiting silent in the hall Where you're going lies adventure others only dream of Red and green light, this is real and so you go to war For the passion, for the glory For the memories, for the money You're a soldier for your country What's the difference, all the same Far away from the land of our birth We fly a flag in some foreign earth We sailed away like our fathers before These colours don't run from cold, bloody war There is no one that will save you, going down in flames No surrender, certain death, you look it in the eye On the shores of tyrany you crashed a human wave Paying for my freedom with your lonely unmarked graves For the passion, for the glory For the memories, for the money You're a soldier for your country What's the difference, all the same Far away from the land of our birth We fly a flag in some foreign earth We sailed away like our fathers before These colours don't run from cold, bloody war Far away from the land of our birth We fly a flag in some foreign earth We sailed away like our fathers before These colours don't run from cold, bloody war These colours don't run from cold, bloody war |

Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason The golden goose is on the loose And never out of season Some blackened pride still burns inside This shell of bloody treason Here's my gun for a barrel of fun For the love of living death. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. The blind men shout let the creatures out We'll show the unbelievers. The Napalm screams of human flames Of a prime time Belsen Feast.....Yeah! As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy, We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with out babies. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. The body bags and little rags of children torn in two And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you, As the Madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song, To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun. The killers breed or the Demon's seed, The glamour, the fortune, the pain, Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain But don't you pray for my soul anymore. 2 minutes to midnight, The hands that threaten doom. 2 minutes to midnight, To kill the unborn in the womb. Midnight all night Lyrics by We are all Anonymous |

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne Got to get up for the coming attack. Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines Remove all the wheel blocks there's no time to waste Gathering speed as we head down the runway Gotta get airborne before it's too late Running, scrambling, flying Rolling, turning, diving, going in again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers Let off a sharp burst and then turn away Roll over, spin round and come in behind them Move to their blindsides and firing again Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us Ten ME-109's out of the sun Ascending and turning out spitfires to face them Heading straight for them I press my guns. Rolling, turning, diving Rolling, turning, diving, goin' again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high. |

Fear Of The Dark
Harris I am a man who walks alone And when I'm walking a dark road At night or strolling through the park When the light begins to change I sometimes feel a little strange A little anxious when it's dark. Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there Have you run your fingers down the wall And have you felt your neck skin crawl When you're searching for the light? Sometimes when you're scared to take a look At the corner of the room You've sensed that something's watching you. Have you ever been alone at night Thought you heard footsteps behind And turned around and no-one's there? And as you quicken up your pace You find it hard to look again Because you're sure there's someone there. Watching horror films the night before Debating witches and folklore The unknown troubles on your mind Maybe your mind is playing tricks You sense, and suddenly eyes fix On dancing shadows from behind. Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there. When I'm walking a dark road I am a man who walks alone .......... |

As the sun breaks, above the ground,
An old man stands on the hill, As the ground warms, to the first rays of light A birdsong shatters the still His eyes are ablaze, See the madman in his gaze. Fly, on your way, like an eagle, Fly as high as the sun, On your way, like an eagle, Fly, and touch the sun. Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears Looks the old man in the eye As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd In the name of God my father I fly. His eyes seem so glazed As he flies on the wings of a dream, Now he knows his father betrayed Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave. Fly, on your way, like an eagle, Fly as high as the sun, On your way, like an eagle, Fly as high as the sun. |

White man came across the sea
Brought us pain and misery Killed our tribes killed our creed Took our game for his own need We fought him hard we fought him well Out on the plains we gave him hell But many came too much for Cree Oh will we ever be set free? Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes Galloping hard on the plains Chasing the redskins back to their holes Fighting them at their own game Murder for freedom a stab in the back Women and children and cowards attack Run to the hills run for your lives Run to the hills run for your lives Soldier blue on the barren wastes Hunting and killing their game Raping the women and wasting the men The only good Indians are tame Selling them whisky and taking their gold Enslaving the young and destroying the old Run to the hills run for your lives (repeat to end) |

Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with The slaughter of innocence But I will pray for her I will call her name out loud I would bleed for her If only I could see her now Living on a razors edge Balancing on a ledge Living on a razors edge The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... The evil that men do lives on and on..... Circle of fire my baptism of joy at an end it seems The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me But I will pray for you And some day I may return Don't you cry for me Beyond is where I learn |

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through So when you're waiting for the next attack You'd better stand there's no turning back. The bugle sounds and the charge begins But on this battlefield no one wins The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath As I plunge on into certain death. The horse he sweats with fear we break to run The mighty roar of the Russian guns And as we race towards the human wall The screams of pain as my comrades fall We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground And the Russians fire another round We get so near yet so far away We won't live to fight another day. 간주 We get so close near enough to fight When a Russian gets me in his sights He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow A burst of rounds take my horse below. And as I lay there gazing at the sky My body's numb and my throat is dry And as I lay forgotten and alone Without a tear I draw my parting groan |

He knocks you to your feet and so what are you gonna do Your tongue was frozen now you've got something to say The piper at the gates of dawn is calling you his way You watch the world exploding every single night Dancing in the sun a new born in the light Say goodbye to gravity and say goodbye to death Hello to eternity and live for every breath Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come The ferryman wants his money you ain't gonna give it back He can push his own boat as you set off up the track Nothing you can contemplate will ever be the same Every second is a new spark, sets the universe aflame You watch the world exploding every single night Dancing in the sun a new born in the light Brothers and their fathers joining hands and make a chain The shadow of the Wicker Man is rising up again Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come Your time will come |

I was born into a scene of angriness and greed, and dominance and persecution.
My mother was a queen, my dad I've never seen, I was never meant to be. And now I spend my time looking all around, For a man that's nowhere to be found. Until I find him I'm never gonna stop searching, I'm gonna find my man, gonna travel around. Chorus: 'Cos I'm a wrathchild, well I'm a wrathchild. Yeah I'm a wrathchild. I'm coming to get you, oooh yeah. Say it doesn't matter ain't nothin' gonna alter the course of my destination. I know I've got to find some serious piece of mind, or I know I'll go crazy. But now I spend my time looking all around, For a man thats nowhere to be found. Until I find him I'm never gonna stop searching, I'm gonna find my man, gonna travel around. Chorus |

Let me tell you a story to chill the bones,
Out of things that I saw. One night wandering in the everglades, I'd one drink but no more. I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight, Gazing up at the stars. Not aware of a presence so near to me, Watching my every move. Feeling scared and I fell to my knees, As something rushed me from the trees. Took me to an unholy place, And that is where I fell from grace. Then they summoned me over to join in with them To the dance of the dead. Into the circle of fire I followed them, Into the middle I was led. As if time had stopped still I was numb with fear, But still I wanted to go. And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me, As I walked onto the coals. And I felt I was in a trance, And my spirit was lifted from me. And if only someone had the chance To witness what happened to me. And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them, All had death in their eyes. Lifeless figures, they were undead all of them, They had ascended from hell. As I danced with the dead, My free spirit was laughing and howling down at me. Below my undead body just danced the circle of dead. Until the time came to reunite us both, My spirit came back down to me. I didn't know if I was alive or dead, As the others all joined in with me. By luck then a skirmish started, And took the attention away from me. When they took their gaze from me, Was the moment that I fled. I ran like hell faster than the wind But behind I did not glance. One thing that I did not dare, Was to look just straight ahead. When you know that your time has come around, You know you'll be prepared for it. Say your last goodbyes to everyone, Drink and say a prayer for it. When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed, And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead. When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed, And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead. To this day I guess I'll never know, Just why they let me go. But I'll never go dancing no more, 'Til I dance with the dead. |

Fear Of The Dark
Harris I am a man who walks alone And when I'm walking a dark road At night or strolling through the park When the light begins to change I sometimes feel a little strange A little anxious when it's dark. Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there Have you run your fingers down the wall And have you felt your neck skin crawl When you're searching for the light? Sometimes when you're scared to take a look At the corner of the room You've sensed that something's watching you. Have you ever been alone at night Thought you heard footsteps behind And turned around and no-one's there? And as you quicken up your pace You find it hard to look again Because you're sure there's someone there. Watching horror films the night before Debating witches and folklore The unknown troubles on your mind Maybe your mind is playing tricks You sense, and suddenly eyes fix On dancing shadows from behind. Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a constant fear that something's always near Fear of the dark, fear of the dark I have a phobia that someone's always there. When I'm walking a dark road I am a man who walks alone .......... |

(Harris)
I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time Cos at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole The sands of time for me are running low When the priest comes to read me the last rites I take a look through the bars at the last sights Of a world that has gone very wrong for me Can it be there's been some sort of an error Hard to stop the surmounting terror Is it really the end not some crazy dream Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming It's not easy to stop from screaming But words escape me when I try to speak Tears they flow but why am I crying After all am I not afraid of dying Don't believe that there never is an end As the guards march me out to the courtyard Someone calls from a cell "God be with you" If there's a God then why has he let me die? As I walk all my life drifts before me And though the end is near I'm not sorry Catch my soul cos it's willing to fly away Mark my words please believe my soul lives on Please don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to see the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down there is just a strange illusion |

From the red sky of the east, to the sunset in the west
We have cheated death and he has cheated us But that was just a dream, and this is what it means We are sleeping and we'll dream for evermore And the fragment remains, of our memories And the shadows we made, with our hands Deeper grey, came to mourn, all the colours of the dawn Will this journeyman's day be his last I know what I want, And I say what I want And no one can take it away, I know what I want And I say what I want, And no one can take it away But the memory still remains, all the past years not so strange Our winter times are like a silent shroud And the heartbeat of the day drives the mist away And winter's not the only dream around In your life you may choose desolation And the shadows you build with your hands If you turn to the light, that is burning in the night Then your journeyman's day has begun I know what I want, And I say what I want And no one can take it away, I know what I want And I say what I want, And no one can take it away In your life you may choose desolation And the shadows you build with your hands If you turn to the light, that is burning in the night Then your journeyman's day has begun I know what I want, And I say what I want And no one can take it away, I know what I want And I say what I want, And no one can take it away |

Lord Of The Flies (Harris, Gers) (Commentary)
I don't care for this world anymore, I just want to live my own fantasy Fate has brought us to these shores, what was meant to be is now happening I've found that I like this living in danger Living on the edge it feels, it makes feel as one Who cares now what's right or wrong, it's reality Killing so we survive wherever we may roam Wherever we may hide, we've got to get away I don't want existence to end, we must prepare ourselves for the elements I just want to feel like we're strong, we don't need a code of morality I like all the mixed emotion and anger It brings out the animal, the power you can feel And feeling so high with this much adrenaline Excited but scary to believe what we've become Saints and sinners, something within us We are lord of the flies Saints and sinners, something willing us To be lord of the flies (3:17-Solo: Janick Gers) Saints and sinners, something within us We are lord of the flies Saints and sinners, something willing us To be lord of the flies Saints and sinners, something within us We are lord of the flies Saints and sinners, something willing us To be lord of the flies |

There's a darkening sky before me. There's no time to prepare
Salvage the last horizon, but no regrets from me Maybe I'll be back some other day to live again, just who can say In what shape or form that I might be, just another chance for me A hurried time no disgrace, instead of racing to conclusion And wishing all my life away. No-one can stop me now. Time is up it couldn't last, but there's more things I'd like to do I'm coming back to try again. Someday maybe I'll wait till then No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies They're all sitting at my table, talking tall and drinking wine They're time is up just like me, but they just don't know it yet So just a word of warning, when you're in your deepest dreams There's nothing you can hide from. I've got my eye on you The clock is fast the hour is near. Eventful past is everclear My life is set the time is here. I think I'm coming home No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies A hurried time no disgrace, instead of racing to conclusion And wishing all your life away, no one can stop me now Time is up it couldn't last, but there's more things I have to do I'm coming back to try again. Don't tell me that this is the end No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies No more lies, no more lies |

In a foreign field he lay, lonely soldier unknown grave
On his dying words he prays, tell the world of Paschendale Relive all that he's been through, last communion of his soul Rust your bullets with his tears. Let me tell you 'bout his years Laying low in a blood filled trench, killing time 'til my very own death On my face I can feel the falling rain, never see my friends again In the smoke in the mud and lead, smell the fear and the feeling of dread Soon be time to go over the wall, rapid fire and the end of us all Whistles, shouts and more gun fire, lifeless bodies hang on barbed wire Battlefield nothing but a bloody tomb, be reunited with my dead friends soon Many soldiers eighteen years, drown in mud no more tears Surely a war no-one can win, killing time about to begin Home, far away, from the war, a chance to live again Home, far away, but the war, no chance to live again The bodies of ours and our foes, the sea of death it overflows In no man's land God only knows, into jaws of death we go Crucified as if on a cross, allied troops they mourn their loss German war propaganda machine, such before has never been seen Swear I heard the angels cry, pray to god no more will die So that people know the truth, tell the tale of Paschendale Cruelty has a human heart, everyman does play his part Terror of the men we kill, the human heart is hungry still I stand my ground for the very last time, gun is ready as I stand in line Nervous wait for the whistle to blow, rush of blood and over we go Blood is falling like the rain, its crimson cloak unveils again The sound of guns can't hide their shame, and so we die on Paschendale Dodging shrapnel and barbed wire, running straight at cannon fire Running blind as I hold my breath, say a prayer symphony of death As we charge the enemy lines, a burst of fire and we go down I choke a cry but no-one hears, feel the blood go down my throat Home, far away, from the war, a chance to live again Home, far away, but the war, no chance to live again See my spirit on the wind, across the lines beyond the hill Friend and foe will meet again, those who died at Paschendale |

When I was wandering in the desert,
And was searching for the truth I heard a choir of angels calling out my name, I had the feeling that my life would never be the same again I turn my face towards the barren sun And I know of the pain that you feel the same as me, And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves And the cracks in our lives like the cracks upon the ground, They are sealed and are now washed away You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears away, You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears... And I know of the pain that you feel the same as me, And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves And the cracks in the ground like the cracks are in our lives, They are sealed and now far away You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears away, You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears... And I know of the pain that you feel the same as me, And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves And the cracks in the ground like the cracks are in our lives, They are sealed and now far away |

White man came across the sea
Brought us pain and misery Killed our tribes killed our creed Took our game for his own need We fought him hard we fought him well Out on the plains we gave him hell But many came too much for Cree Oh will we ever be set free? Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes Galloping hard on the plains Chasing the redskins back to their holes Fighting them at their own game Murder for freedom a stab in the back Women and children and cowards attack Run to the hills run for your lives Run to the hills run for your lives Soldier blue on the barren wastes Hunting and killing their game Raping the women and wasting the men The only good Indians are tame Selling them whisky and taking their gold Enslaving the young and destroying the old Run to the hills run for your lives (repeat to end) |

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to get the memories from my mind What did I see can I believe that what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy Just what I saw in my old dreams were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me Cos in my dreams it's always there the evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair The night was black was no use holding back Cos I just had to see was someone watching me In the mist dark figures move and twist was all this for real or some kind of hell 666 the Number of the Beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised as they start to cry hands held to the sky In the night the fires burning bright the ritual has begun Satan's work is done 666 the Number of the Beast Sacrifice is going on tonight This can't go on I must inform the law Can this still be real or some crazy dream but I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes they seem to mesmerise me...can't avoid their eyes 666 the Number of the Beast 666 the one for you and me I'm coming back I will return And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn I have the fire I have the force I have the power to make my evil take its course |

You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through So when you're waiting for the next attack You'd better stand there's no turning back. The bugle sounds and the charge begins But on this battlefield no one wins The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath As I plunge on into certain death. The horse he sweats with fear we break to run The mighty roar of the Russian guns And as we race towards the human wall The screams of pain as my comrades fall We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground And the Russians fire another round We get so near yet so far away We won't live to fight another day. 간주 We get so close near enough to fight When a Russian gets me in his sights He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow A burst of rounds take my horse below. And as I lay there gazing at the sky My body's numb and my throat is dry And as I lay forgotten and alone Without a tear I draw my parting groan |

I was born into a scene of angriness and greed, and dominance and persecution.
My mother was a queen, my dad I've never seen, I was never meant to be. And now I spend my time looking all around, For a man that's nowhere to be found. Until I find him I'm never gonna stop searching, I'm gonna find my man, gonna travel around. Chorus: 'Cos I'm a wrathchild, well I'm a wrathchild. Yeah I'm a wrathchild. I'm coming to get you, oooh yeah. Say it doesn't matter ain't nothin' gonna alter the course of my destination. I know I've got to find some serious piece of mind, or I know I'll go crazy. But now I spend my time looking all around, For a man thats nowhere to be found. Until I find him I'm never gonna stop searching, I'm gonna find my man, gonna travel around. Chorus |

Blood Brothers
And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life What do you think you'd expect you would see? Just like a mirror reflecting the moves of your life And in the river reflections of me Just for a second a glimpse of my father I see And in a movement he beckons to me And in a moment the memories are all that remain And all the wounds are reopening again We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers And as you look all around at the world in dismay What do you see, do you think we have learned Not if you're taking a look at the war-torn affray Out in the streets where the babies are burned We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers There are time when I feel I'm afraid for the world There are times I'm ashamed of us all When you're floating on all the emotion you feel And reflecting the good and the bad Will we ever know what the answer to life really is? Can you really tell me what life is? Maybe all the things that you know that are precious to you Could be swept away by fate's own hand We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers When you think that we've used all our chances And the chance to make everything right Keep on making the same old mistakes Makes untipping the balance so easy When we're living our lives on the edge Say a prayer on the book of the dead We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life.... |

Let me tell you a story to chill the bones,
Out of things that I saw. One night wandering in the everglades, I'd one drink but no more. I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight, Gazing up at the stars. Not aware of a presence so near to me, Watching my every move. Feeling scared and I fell to my knees, As something rushed me from the trees. Took me to an unholy place, And that is where I fell from grace. Then they summoned me over to join in with them To the dance of the dead. Into the circle of fire I followed them, Into the middle I was led. As if time had stopped still I was numb with fear, But still I wanted to go. And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me, As I walked onto the coals. And I felt I was in a trance, And my spirit was lifted from me. And if only someone had the chance To witness what happened to me. And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them, All had death in their eyes. Lifeless figures, they were undead all of them, They had ascended from hell. As I danced with the dead, My free spirit was laughing and howling down at me. Below my undead body just danced the circle of dead. Until the time came to reunite us both, My spirit came back down to me. I didn't know if I was alive or dead, As the others all joined in with me. By luck then a skirmish started, And took the attention away from me. When they took their gaze from me, Was the moment that I fled. I ran like hell faster than the wind But behind I did not glance. One thing that I did not dare, Was to look just straight ahead. When you know that your time has come around, You know you'll be prepared for it. Say your last goodbyes to everyone, Drink and say a prayer for it. When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed, And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead. When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed, And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead. To this day I guess I'll never know, Just why they let me go. But I'll never go dancing no more, 'Til I dance with the dead. |

When I was wandering in the desert,
And was searching for the truth I heard a choir of angels calling out my name, I had the feeling that my life would never be the same again I turn my face towards the barren sun And I know of the pain that you feel the same as me, And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves And the cracks in our lives like the cracks upon the ground, They are sealed and are now washed away You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears away, You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears... And I know of the pain that you feel the same as me, And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves And the cracks in the ground like the cracks are in our lives, They are sealed and now far away You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears away, You tell me we can start the rain You tell me that we all can change You tell me we can find something to wash the tears... And I know of the pain that you feel the same as me, And I dream of the rain as it falls upon the leaves And the cracks in the ground like the cracks are in our lives, They are sealed and now far away |

I can't be compromising in my thoughts no more
I can't prevent the times my anger fills my heart I can't be sympathyzing with a new lost cause I feel I've lost my patience with the world and all And all the politicians and their hollow promises And all the lies, deceit and shame that goes with it The working man pays everything for their mistakes And with his life too if there was to be a war So we only get one chance can we take it And we only get one life can't exchange it Can we hold on to what we have don't replace it The age of innocence is fading..... Like an old dream A life of petty crime gets punished with a holiday The victims' minds are scarred for life most everyday Assailants know just how much further they can go They know the laws are soft conviction chances low So we only get one chance can we take it And we only get one life can't exchange it Can we hold on to what we have don't replace it The age of innocence is fading..... Like an old dream You can't protect yourselves even in your own home For fear of vigilante cries the victims wipe their tears So now the criminals they laugh right in our face Judicial system lets them do it, a disgrace Despondent public worries where it all will end we can't protect ourselves our kids from crime the trend We cannot even warn each other of evil in our midst They have more rights than us, you cannot call that just So we only get one chance can we take it And we only get one life can't exchange it Can we hold on to what we have don't replace it The age of innocence is fading..... Like an old dream The age of innocence is fading..... Like an old dream |

Let me tell you a story to chill the bones,
'bout a thing that I saw. One night wandering in the everglades. I had one drink but no more. I was rambling, enjoying the bright moonlight. Gazing up at the stars. Not aware of a presence so near to me. Watching my every move. Feeling scared and I fell to my knees. As something rushed me from the trees. Took me to an unholy place. And that is where I fell from grace. Then they summoned me over to join in with them. To the dance of the dead In to the circle of fire I followed them. In to the middle I was led. As if time had stopped still I was numb with fear, but still I wanted to go. And the blaze of the fire did no hurt upon me. As I walked onto the coals. And I felt I was in a trance. And my spirit was lifted from me And if only someone had the chance. To witness what happened to me. And I danced and I pranced and I sang with them. All had death in their eyes. Lifeless figures they were undead all of them. They had ascended from hell. As I danced with the dead my free spirit was laughing and howling down at me. Below my undead body, just danced the circle of death. Until the time came to reunite us both. My spirit came back down to me I didn't know if I was alive or dead. As the others all joined in with me. By luck then a skirmish started. And took the attention away from me When they took their gaze from me. Was the moment that I fled. I ran like hell faster than the wind. But behind I did not glance One thing that I did not dare. Was to look just straight ahead. When you know that your time has come around. You know you'll be prepared for it. Say your last goodbyes to everyone. Drink and say a prayer for it. When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead When you're lying in your sleep, when you're lying in your bed And you wake from your dreams to go dancing with the dead To this day I guess I'll never know. Just why they let me go. But I'll never go dancing no more. 'Til I dance with the dead. |

Everybody's waiting for something to happen.
Everybody's waiting for something to see Lunatics waiting for bigger disasters. Everyone's waiting for news on TV Winding lives at the end of the spiral. Waiting dictators with their next big thrill Everyone's looking but no one is listening. Everybody wants to be in at the kill I wait for the signs, they tell me true. I see the signs of the end of time Everyone's searching but nothing's revealing. Everyone's looking for the reason why Everyone's hoping for life everafter. Everyone's looking at death from the sky Everyone's nightmares are going to happen. Everybody's ripping the mask from their eyes Everyone's praying but no one's believing. Everyone's heroes tell everyone's lies I wait for the signs, they tell me true. I see the signs of the end of time So I watch and I wait. And I pray for an awnser An end to the strife and the world's misery. But the end never came And we're digging the graves. And we're loading the guns for the kill Can the end be at hand? Is the face in the sand? Future memory of our tragedy Can the end be at hand? Is the face in the sand? Future memory of our tragedy So I watch and I wait. And I pray for an awnser An end to the strife and the world's misery. But the end never came And we're digging the graves. And we're loading the guns for the kill Can the end be at hand? Is the face in the sand? Future memory of our tragedy Can the end be at hand? Is the face in the sand? Future memory of our tragedy |

Weaving a thread round your heart and your soul.
Decieving your eyes and delaying your goal Ships in the night when they pass out of sight. Deliver their cargo of eartly delights To the women and the children the souls of the dead. I've opened their book and no mercy is shed You want forgiveness and you want it cheap. I don't give redemption rewards for the meek Suffering evil when you pay the price of fame. There isn't a god to save you if you don't save yourself You can't blame a madman if you go insane. Give me the strength so I carry on Trapped in the web but I cut the threads. Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web no mercy is shed. Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web slaves to the dead. Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web but I cut the threads. Show you the gates of tomorrow Suffering evil when you pay the price of fame. There isn't a god to save you if you don't save yourself You can't blame a madman if you go insane. Give me the strength so I carry on Trapped in the web but I cut the threads. Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web slaves to the dead. Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web no mercy is shed. Show you the gates of tomorrow Trapped in the web but I cut the threads. Show you the gates of tomorrow |
