Under the night you will hear the calling
No end in sight... Take my hand, I think I'm falling.
Now I feel much better. We'll be together when it's over
Under the weather I'm down and out but I hear the calling
Life seems so simple when everything is right
You soar ever high as the wind cuts through your wings
Take your maiden flight as you fly under the night
Spread your wings and take your maiden flight

Out here on the ocean water drifting out to sea.
I tried to stay in shallow but she pulled me out too deep.
The warmth of the water and the chill of the air
have clouded everything except the full moon in the sky.
And now I find myself fighting the ocean just to keep my head up.
Every emotion, every desire suddenly mean everything.
The turn of the tides are unpredictable.

through timeless ages in words of sages
a great mystery lies of the child inside in whom
we confide to unshroud the secret we try
I've seen this place I've been here before
I've seen what mankind has in store
(but time is so concealing)
his vision recoursed through sands of time
his fabled riddle finds reason in rhyme
of the most distant reaches and what it teaches
where does the truth lie?
I've seen his face and this familiar place
the echoes silent but the message bright
a message comes through the night
but the myth veils our second sight
a glimpse of what may lie beyond

I don't want you to talk to me unless you're meaning what you say.
Don't tell me what I want to hear just to make things good today.
Don't talk. Don't say a word. Don't tell me what I've already heard.
Don't talk. Don't let me in. Just lie in my bed at 7:00 A.M.
I don't want to hear your philosophy. I don't want to hear your =
prophecy.
I know that you're using me. Is that the way it's meant to be?
Don't talk. Don't say a word. Don't tell me what I've already heard.
Don't talk. Don't let me in. Just lie in my bed at 7:00 A.M.
The alarm is quiet. I can hear you breathing.
I want to see to know what you're dreaming...

A wraith awaits in the aurora
A wraith awaits in the aurora
Seven lights to one central light adhere
The three come forth and a second line appears
Antahkarana
Music &Lyrics; ©1996 by Middle Earth

a new dawn fades into the day of the Lords
insight clouded by discord
St. Vitus dance on God's teeth begins the end
makes each new day seem shorter yet
the Arcane play with shadows, the ritual game
forgetting the dreams they once had
the closer it gets to the threshold it seems
the nearer they are to mad
sometimes a hammer is all that you need
compulsive saving face speaking in tongues
shrugging off the world and finding remains of faith
the nearer we are to mad the nearer we are to man
screaming in need seeking smaller things
to lead seeking leaders in smaller things
inchworm won't you show us the way
our matter pales to thee the taller we grow the weaker
show us what we need the paler we are to thee
screaming in need seeking smaller things
to lead seeking leaders in smaller things

The waters are warm - The air is cold
Spirit ever young; only body growing old
In sleep I walk; a shadow at night
Dreams are not cloudy; I at last have sight.
No sky above. No earth below.
So I walk this realm - it's wonders I must know.
The rain falls hard. The ice freezes slow.
The surrounding storm leaves no place to go.
By night mare fly o'er reality's wake.
By shadows of Mordar, I tremble and shake.
Unrest stirs the farthest places.
My body sleeps but my mind races.
All I see I must not tell
for this is my journey and where I dwell.
I soar above and walk below.
I gather fascination and away it must stow.
This is my tale, mine to control
for I must not tell a living soul.
..and now I sink to the depths of the Ocean

Sleep begin your final trip and carry me far away
Sol now take your evening throne and end this my last day
I have grown old at last the river has run dry
The white and cold and empty faces have left no tear to cry
Gabriel blow loud and clear and crumble these walls of pain
Satan have me do your deeds no more and cast the die of my bane
The game is done I am no longer a pawn upon the board
I might have been king or maybe a soldier if not for my sword
I ask not for vengeance. This is my repentance
God above give me silence, peace of mind in midst of this violence
Take me swiftly Carry me Lift me
Take me away Take me I pray
I grieve not in vain Take me to your domain
Death sing me to sleep and end my loathful days

Reflection
You granted me creation. You gave me tools of destruction.
The choice, the path lies there behind you. Please let me by.
You knew we'd turn almost anywhere, now you let me kneel beside you.
We released our minds, we laughed at time.
Let's not stop now, our emotions are running high.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, tell us now so we don't fall.
Mirror, mirror what's that you say? Time right now means death to stay.
Let me stand back, I need a breath. I took the test, gave you my time.
Your visionary will takes us. We can't stop now, now we're learning how =
fly.
You're my reflection.
Please empty glass tell your secret. Bash the great glass wall between =
We loved your story so don't you cry. We'll turn, just let us pray =
beside you.
You're my reflection.
We released our minds, we laughed at time. Break the glass and we'll =
pass the
test. The iron cross turns, crucifix of life. Please don't stop now, my =
blood
is boiling anew ...
Music & Lyrics ©1996 by Middle Earth

You've been on a long walk again.
I see your two bleeding feet.
You thought about what's been said.
Now you hand the torch to me.
I hold it high but you run to its shadows to hide.
Now I've lost sight of you.
We wait 'til dawn to go.
You turn to face the East.
Your words weigh heavy on my heart.
I wear your blood on my sleeve.
You reach for the sky.
You seem to silhouette my eyes.
Now I see another side of you.

She may be dancing but look at her eyes.
She will turn them away if she notices you noticing.
She may be flowers but look at her roots.
She can't kick off the dirt she wants to grow into.
She may be lying but look at her spine.
It recoils at a touch. She can't kick off the dirt and she's reminded.
She's reminded. She is reminded.
She remembers now...
She thinks she's so strong and you believe.
until you look at her at a distance trembling.
She knows flowers. She knows the dance.
It's just the history that anchors her to dirt.
Look at her flowers. Look how they dance.
Music &Lyrics; ©1996 by Middle Earth

Your grand ideals are so close to all of ours
and for us all of this you would do.
Yes, the sun illuminates your face.
Well, you might think - but your mask of gold
still shows your eyes of coal.
Of course the moon throws shadows on your face;
your cold mask wanes.
YouÕre wishing on, insisting on a way
to wake to find a gleam of hopeful rays.
You might say that it is my lack of faith and not your mistake.
Aside from right or wrong or who is at fault, the end result-
a broken image that you canÕt hope to mend.
You might try to adhere the pieces with your denial.
Is this your gift to me?
Music &Lyrics; ©1996 by Middle Earth

(A Mirror in time. These forms enshroud my mind.)
On my left, on my right: two of those for whom I'd fight.
My sister, my brother. Who's going to watch out for the other?
Who put you on the other side?
(Despite all of my questions I'm going to have to decide.)
Get in the middle and quietly rest.
Lay aside desire, let the air fill your chest.
Is it get with me? Is it get with my?
A world in my own image? Did I decide on Love?
All I saw around I loved. What a fool I was!
These visions of my brothers and sisters...
Get in the middle...
Is it get with me? Is it get with my?

Time to break it down with an old school fable
from back in the day before the turntable
there was evil in the land time to take a stand
olde english eight hundred and a mystical clan
not a quest for fire still things were looking dire
dark riders on the rise trying to build an empire
so call me a liar but I've seen it all
and look out below!!! is my battle call
twas a lyrical stand off, backed up by Gandalf
said make like Luke Skywalker and get yer hand off
me staff! what you wan't me autograph?!
we brought it on like Kahn and they felt the wrath
trying to map the way we rap? bust open your globe
sent the lion and the witch straight back to the wardrobe
kicking up dust in the elven grove
when I hit the dancefloor I told the wizard more strobe!
simmer down young dwarve and show respect
the kings held a council and did elect
Frodo to bear the ring, and spring the plan
and remember this was all before the age of man
coming straight from the underground
coming straight from the whole of middle earth
here yeeeee here yeeee!
curiously strong but he ain't selling mints
the ring on his finger entails the four elements
I can make it rain sleet snow or hail
and if you riddle for my precious you're bound to fail
my winds are gail force: "blowing out all orcs!"
posse's barreling down the river cold bobbing like corks
break you down to dust from whence you came
deep as the mines of Mordor where I stake my claim
with fire from the shire, I'll burn your crown
now you're living in the crazy world of Arthur Brown
so get on down to middle earth
and just rock to the rhythm like you was a smurf
I'm like Sam Wise can't believe my eyes!
never touch the ring cause it ain't my size
no suprise cause it ain't no thing
cold swinging with sting it's the return of the king
of pain, enemies get slain, I'm barefoot like Ringo on Abbey Lane
with oujai board raps, whichever way the wit points
we'll stay at number one cause our records got hit points!
I came down from the hills to fight the dark forces
a double edged sword and I know where the orcs is
so get the horses, no remorse kids
been getting many tips, from numerous sources
it's time to roll on these muther funkin trolls
cut off their heads and banish their souls
another day in the life of the warrior clan
someday they'll paint my likeness on the side of a van
word! we're bringing knowledge, that's everlasting
casting a spell like Gandalf blasting
trolls out the box with their fiendish plots
pop pop from the wand another Goblin drops
I fought an intellect devourer and a night stalker
a leech a leprachaun, even leucratta
them ugly little suckers didn't stand a chance
when I climbed up in a tree and did my battle dance!
battles were raged throughout the age
so that two little hobbits could descend
and cast the ring from whence it came
so the age of magic could end?!
coming straight from the underground
coming straight from the whole of middle earth
my precious my precious how could you have left this
finger I linger, this thought depresses
lead silly hobbitans where they think they must
I'll snatchem you back push them tween the crust
where the lava runs free, my precious and me
we hate Bagginses and they hate we
my precious me, running free,
I hate Bagginses and they hate me!
what happened to that thing to which I used to cling?
how could they disrupt my little magical fling!?
the ring of doom!? nah, that's jive!
when I put the sucker on it made me feel live!
sipping on the grog I begin to glow
reminiscing on the finger that I had a year ago
fore the coming of man, and all his plans
my spirit got crushed in his corrupted hands
now I'm down on my knees, and my feet got fleas
and they built a Safeway on my hobbit hole
so ask yourself! who made who?
cause you probably got a little bit of hobbit in you
yeah ask yourself who made who?
I bet you got a little bit of hobbit in you
yes ask yourself who made who?
might you have a little bit of hobbit in you?
coming straight from the underground
