I breath the air I feel free I feel the sun shine on me
A new direction narrow path place unknown I've never seen
Clouds moving fades to gray there's a spirit lifting me
Mere reflection draws me near distant image as I stare
Is this a dream? Reality? A man lies before me
Eye to eye the man awakes he takes my hand pulls me in
These eyes I recognize I call to you this can't be him
He calls me son you are the light my energy I am home
I hear that voice calling once again
With visions of yesteryear and rivers of blood they shed
The times have changed but I'm steadfast
For a reign of terror the outcasts
Will be used against themselves through ignorance and lies
And so in hate my numbers grow and soon all the world will know
A twisted universal mind a mind like mine
Back to a time when I was young a father tells an only son
You are the chosen one
And as I grew so did my hate to cleanse the land became my fate
I became the gun
If the child grows knowing only what it's told
Then the man can learn only as his history unfolds
The roots of hatred we don't always see and so are left to grow
Fear begins in ones center and when allowed to flow
Will cast ripples upon still waters destroying all it knows
The disenfranchised will brutalize those who are not the same
The immigrants and infidels will be the pawn in their game
And they will use you against yourself through ignorance and lies
Hear that voice once again tie the borders
We need some order take a stand
So the politicians reach the white man
With loaded words a foot on the bible and rifle in their hands
Return to a time when you were young
When love lit your way
And all your troubles amounted to none
But who could who could say
But still do we really ever understand how we can love the child
But crucify the man
And do we ever really see that
"I could have been him and he could have been me"
Remember a time when you were young
When love cradled the day
And you did not know the difference between right and wrong
So who led who led the way
Now will you be the voice of reason when there's none
Who will who will sing it's song
I will
Music: J. Tipton & T.Tipton
I feel so empty tired of being alone
It's time I change my life and release all the shame
What lies within me my spirit colder than a stone
I'd give my life to live another life again
Ecstasy calling me I cannot hear it
Fantasy crawls on me I cannot feel it
Sanity stalking me I do not fear it
Endlessly watching me drawing me near it
Look into my eyes and see the terror inside
Every teardrop lets the pain drip down my face
My life is over, yours is there for me to take
Open up your soul, your life I will embrace
I can feel you I'm in control
I'll wake and take over your soul
Your life I'll live no more danger
I'll live your life free from anger
Ecstasy calling me I cannot hear it
Fantasy crawls on me I cannot feel it
Sanity stalking me I do not fear it
Endlessly watching me drawing me near it
Why do I feel no change
I'm feeling twice the pain
Can't bear the endless shame
The agony remains
No hope remains
I'm still the same
I wake screaming agony
You give me what I really need
Consumed by the pain I'm frustrated and drained
I'm hiding behind you my secret shall remain
You lift me away from reality
When I come down again will you be there for me
Blood strains running through my veins
When I'm with you I feel so deranged
You lift me away from reality
When I come down again will you be there for me
I need you to catch me so I can be free
When I come down again will you be there for me
The fever that I feel chills me to the bone
No more apathy I choose to be alone
Consumed by the pain I feel frustrated and drained
I can't live without you my secret shall remain
You lift me away from reality
When I come down again will you be there for me
I need you to catch me so I can be free
ARMED WITH THE PROMISE OF SALVATION
COUNTLESS MONOLITHS RISE
FIRES THAT FEED THEIR PROGRESS BLACKEN THE EARTH AND THE SKY
THE MASSES THAT TEEM BELOW THEM
ARE DRAWN TO THE WARMTH OF THEIR LIGHT
COME TO YOUR FUTURE SO BRIGHT
THE HEAVEN YOU SEEK IS IN SIGHT
JUST GIVE ALL AND LAY AT MY FEET
THE HEAVEN YOU NEED IS FOUND WITHIN ME
IN THEIR MIDNIGHT IT IS SAVIOUR IT GIVES THEM FAITH
IN THEIR MIDNIGHT IT IS SAVIOUR BUT IT STEALS THEIR SOULS
THEY ARE ALL JUST SECONDS BOTH IN LINE AND IN TIME
MOVING FOREVER TOWARD BOXES OF PINE
OH INNOCENT FOLLOWER
YOU OF FEEBLE SPIRIT AND SHALLOW HEART
GO AS THOSE BEFORE YOU DID
EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE TORN APART
ALL YOUR GODS IN HEAVEN CANNOT SAVE YOU NOW
IT LOCKS THE DOOR AND TAKES THE KEY
AND WILL NOT ALLOW
WALKING OUT
IT WILL SICKEN YOUR WILL
IT WILL SICKEN YOUR SELF
IT WILL TAKE WITHOUT MERCY
UNTIL THERE IS NOTHING ELSE
IT WILL TAKE YOUR WILL
IT WILL TAKE YOU ALL
IT WILL TAKE A MYSTIC
TO MAKE IT FALL
SHADOW PEOPLE
FACES WITHOUT NAMES
GO IN WILLING
LEAVING IN FLAMES
[2X]
CAST INTO A MANIC MISSION
LEAD INTO A BLIND DESCISION
THROWN INTO A DARK SUBMISSION
THEY WILL BECOME AN OMISSION
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
Brave young man in line with deep beliefs
Forced through generations of life? Life, life
God my strength, my soul deeply rooted
This land I live, my love? Life, life
Look beyond this troubled time, for the time is now
Look beyond your selfish needs
And carry with you all that you believe
For the life that you give in this world that we live
I give you hope
Rage
From the end of my blade to the throat of the enemy
Pain
Was the choice that was made the adrenaline blinding
My mind is screaming, visions revealing
Life fades away
This is not a dream
Daylights rising
The morning has just began
Tear drops falling
Not in vain for the fallen ones
Back home I watch
Another family cries
Wishing they had more time
Alone I watch and wait for you
I pray for you
Our father
Who art in heaven
Give me the strength I need
For my land
For my king
And for you my lord
I take my sword and drive through your heart
And watch you take your last breath
Watch it rise into the cold winter air
So now it's done
And victory is ours
I've won for you my king
So your name can carry on
Believe in me
For my heart and soul have bled for you
We will rise to a better world
Secrets deception
Answers to give their own strength
As I look into your eyes questions need
Your silence and compromise
In my mind your voice towards me is wasted time
In your life there's frustration
And we fight for your say
It's your time for creation
As your time fades away
Is there a right and is there a reason
Do they lie and blind our own eyes
We strive for life a fight in the system
Only to find they supply our destiny
Twisted Ignorance
To those he lies for his own gain
Will you side away or be blinded to mine
Do we still fight trying to seek life in a better light
In our day
Here in our life is there a chance for this place in time
So we know
Threats trades negative power in rage
In a system that still remains
Knowing what could be
As we ask alone
Will we see as one
Do we still fight trying to seek life in a better light
Here in our life is there a chance for this place in time
Is there a reason for all the wrong
We need a change in vision
Needed for us to grow
Why I was chosen you are to blame
My mission here in power is my domain
You look for the answers seeking the chance
Are questions worth giving the system remains
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
ITS PROGRESS HAS NO LIMITS
AND NEITHER DO THE EYES
OF THE SUBTERRANEN CYNIC
THE ONE WHO MUST HIDE
FOR ALL THIS TIME
HE HAS CHOSEN A WAR PATH
HE WILL END ITS GREED
FEELING BEINGS FEELING
NOTHING
I WILL SET ITS LIMIT
FOR MY FUTURE HAS NO HOME
THE SNAKE IS IN THE GARDEN
I GO ON ALONE
I'M IN ITS YESTERDAYS I'VE SEEN IT RISE
ESCAPED BY THINKING TWICE I LIVE SO IT MUST DIE
I'M THE MYSTIC I'M THE ONE
I'M THE SEASONS IT'S THE SUN
I'M THE MOON YOU'RE ITS NEED
I WILL MAKE IT BLEED
I'M THE MOON IT IS THE SUN
I 'LL ECLIPSE ALL THAT IT'S DONE
I'LL BRING RENEWAL THROUGH DESTRUCTION
I WILL MAKE IT SEE
THIS IS A WARNING OF NO COMPROMISE
THE ARROGANT WILL BE MADE HUMBLE
THE IGNORANT WILL BE MADE WISE
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
Twisting and turning the fire that's burning
My life to the sun
Watching the hour a sky to devour
Battles just began
Takes my soul, takes my mind
Marching straight forward the hunger controlling
I must press on
The stress from the action the burning the passion
What went so wrong?
Life has no mercy, continuously stirring
Good fortune they say as the time slips away
A better way on my own, so they say
So they write
For all that is left in me, all that you care to see
I'll give you heaven
Such a small part of me
I'll give you hell
So fill my life with faith
Bringing me down
You bring me down
Bringing me down
Bring me down
Bringing me down
You're falling!
I'll give you heaven
I'll give you hell
The passion of words and the fate of your actions and
You're falling, you're falling
You're bringing me down
Your words and your actions alone
You're bringing me down alone
Forever imprisoned by your actions
And now that I've found myself your falling down
You're falling
I'll give you heaven
You bring me hell
The passion of words and the fate of your actions and
THE KEEPER OF THE KINGDOM NOW HAS COME DOWN SO DOWN
TO THE EARTH BELOW TO A BLINDING GLOW
TO A SOUND TO A HAUNTING SOUND
IT NOW CAN BE SEEN IT WAS MAN NOT MACHINE IT WAS MAN JUST A MAN
AMAZED HE SURVIVED AMAZED TO HEAR A SIGH
IS THERE SOMEONE ELSE HERE?
FEVERISH LAUGHTER BREAKS UPON THEIR LIPS
THE TORTURED FROM THE HEREAFTER APPEAR IN HIS MIDST
THEY DANCE WHIRLING AROUND HIM A SIRENS SONG HIS FATE
THEY BEGIN SINGING SOFTLY
"DEATH COMES TO THOSE WHO HATE, DEATH COMES TO THOSE WHO WAIT"
"HOW COULD YOU LEAD US ON WHILE YOU STAYED ON HIGH
HOW COULD YOU LEAD US ON TO STAY FROZEN IN TIME?"
"HOW COULD I LEAD THEM ON TO SOMETHING THEY'D NEVER FIND"
WHY DID I LEAD THEM ON TO SOMETHING THAT WAS ONLY IN MIND?"
AND NOW HE FADES AWAY
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
Lyrics: E. Rosvold
This uphill climb, will it ever end? Something's going to die!
Kill this old man, my mouth is dry
Sweat like beads of sauder piercing my head
A staff in my hand, I'll hike through the night
I'll hike, and I'll hike, hike, something's going to die!
I'm so cold
I hear something, I'm so cold
I hear something, it's raining
I hear something, if it comes too close
Something's going to die!
I hear something, something's going to die!
At last I can see
At last I can breathe (again)
To touch the sky
At last I can see (again)
I fall down to my knees in awe
Closer to the edge I walk
To touch the sky, I raise my hands
I close my eyes, I'm not afraid
The water runs, the falcon cries
In my ears, take me away
I start to dream, then catch myself
I fall down to my knees in awe
(Edge) At last I can see
To touch the sky
At last I can breathe (again)
(I fall down to my knees...)
I fall down to my knees in awe
(Closer to the edge...)
Closer to the edge I walk
(To touch the sky...)
To touch the sky, I raise my hands
(I close my eyes...)
I close my eyes, I'm not afraid
(The water runs...)
The water runs, the falcon cries
(In my ears...)
In my ears, take me away
(I start to dream...)
I start to dream, then catch myself
(I fall down to my knees...)
I fall down to my knees in awe
Take, take me away!
Take, take me away!
(Edge) At last I can see
At last I can see
"IN THOSE PASSAGE WAYS HE PASSED HIS DAYS
BUT BELIEVED HIS PASSIVE WAYS MUST END
KNOWING HIS TIME LIKE ALL OTHERS WILL RUN OUT
HE TAKES THE ROLE OF THE DESPERATE MAN"
BREATHING SILENCE CONSCIOUS STRIPPED AND BARE
I KNOW THAT WHAT'S INSIDE THEM I ALSO SHARE
FOR WITHIN EVERY COWARD LIES A SLAVE
MY PRISON IS THE DARKNESS THEIRS THE NEED TO BE LED
FOR WITHIN EVERY HOUR LIES A DAY
THIS LAND I KNOW THESE PEOPLE ARE MY OWN
ALL THAT REMAINS HIDDEN WILL SOON BE SHOWN
FOR BENEATH EVERY TOWER LIES ITS GRAVE
A ONE MAN ARMY FIGHTS AN IMAGINARY WAR
FAR WITHIN MYSELF ONLY I KNOW WHAT FOR
COME NOW
SEE HOW
DROP DROP DOWN AND LIQUIDFY
I'LL GIVE THE WORLD TO YOU
DROP DROP DOWN AND SANCTIFY
I PROMISE ALL THE TRUTH
I'LL GIVE YOU MORE THAN EYES
I'LL GIVE YOU MORE
I'LL GIVE YOU MORE THAN YOUR TWO EYES
THE TRUTH THE TRUTH THE TRUTH
ON THEIR KNEES BLESSING LIGHT
COME WITH ME RULE THE NIGHT
TAKE THE CHANCE RIDE THE BEAST
JOIN THE FAMINE OR THE FEAST
BUT THEY WON'T HEAR THEY JUST STARE
THEY DON'T CARE THEY WOULDN'T DARE
TO LIVE LIVE LIVE BEYOND THEIR WALLS
EACH TOWER IN MY SIGHT
BROKEN
EACH TOWER IN MY WAY
BROKEN
I'LL TURN THESE WORDS TO SWORDS
SPOKEN TONIGHT
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
The pressure, that plagues with desire, my fears alive inside
Bow down to me (Bow down to me), weak and in envy (weak and in envy),
all eyes on me (all eyes on me), dark yet adoring
My memory has faded and torn, just specs of pictures burnt beyond
Rage dies in me (Rage dies in me), fades to apathy (fades to apathy),
your muted screams (your muted screams), building endlessly
I have not wasted life, I have not died
You gave me all my life, now you take it all back
So many words of fire, so many lies
The pressure, that plagues with desire, my fate lies in limbo
Pushing me down (I'm falling), pushing me down (I'm falling)
Pounding me down (I'm dying), pounding me down (I'm dying)
I'm dying, I'm dying, I'm dying, dying...
I need to find the words, the light
You are the one to bring down the sun that fades away
I am not your slave, let me live, understand I am a man
Breaking down these walls of life
(The last spoken words have died..I need to find the words, the light..
I'm tearing down these walls of life, to escape this deadly desire)
ALL I NEED NOW IS SOME GOLDEN WINGS THAT I MAY FLY
BUT IT DROPS DOWN ON ME THIS WEIGHT OF TIME
AND THE PAIN IN THEIR EYES
I CRAWLED ALONG MY CRACKED AND NARROW PATH
AND SAW MY REFLECTION IN SOME BROKEN GLASS
IT WAS BLOOD RED BLOOD RED AND IT SAID
THAT THE YEARS THEY STAY AND THEN MOVE ON
AND LIKE YESTERDAY YOU HAVE COME AND GONE
YOU REACHED AN END
BUT I KNOW THAT EVENTHOUGH THERE IS SUMMER
THERE IS ALSO A FALL
THE COLD WILL STAY THE WARMTH WILL LEAVE (WHISPERS)
IF TO LIVE IS TO SIN THEN THIS MUST BE DONE
FOR WHATEVER YOU DO IS EVIL TO SOMEONE
BUT IT'S KILLING ME IT'S KILLING ME
SO I'M HEADED OUT TO THAT ROAD THAT WINDS FOREVER AND EVER
BUT IT DROPS DOWN ON ME THE WEIGHT OF TIME
AND THE PAIN IN THEIR EYES
STANDING HERE ON MY FREEDOMS SHORE
THERE IS NOTHING LEFT THERE IS NOTHING MORE
THAN TO RISE SO HIGH AND THEN TO FALL
SOME SONGS ARE PRAYERS AND THIS ONE PRAYS
"IT IS BETTER TO LIVE FREE FOR A MOMENT THAN A
SLAVE FOR A DAY"
SO JUST FADE AWAY
FADE AWAY
FADE AWAY
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
A Field of white reflects the light
Of a rose upon a tomb
ON a cruel grey morning
Alone they stand with heads in hands
They lost one they lost one along the way
And they're still and they're still mourning today
Shed the tears forgive the years though it hurts to
Feel that way today
No one knows why we die so live through
For there is no other way
Some may believe in things they've never seen
Though we must wake we can live the dream
The reasons for the day no one knows
still we take the thorns with the rose
memories they fade and now I know
No matter how full the river must grow
Some may believe in things they've never seen
Though we must wake we can live the dream
Throw away the ties that bind you
And all that you have heard
And when you find your way
And know the meaning
You can forget their words
A field of white reflects the light
Of a rose upon a tomb
Stare
To stare in the eyes
Of future so bleak
Faith
To rebuild faith
Need
In the power to believe
You must lead
Lead for a better life
Rebuilding
Hope for a future
Let your voice
Voice be heard at all
End the fear
To live in unity
Silence
Strength remains
Will
Not afraid
Arms
Free we reign
Dreams guide our way
A march for change
A march for life and we stand tall
Giving your body voice and life
A march for change
A march for life and we stand tall
Giving your body voice and life
Together we'll stand
Not afraid to fall
To end our suffering
And rebuild a new world
Slaves no more
My time is now
I wait no longer
For our voices will be heard
Shadows of light
Lead us forward
Tormented souls
Seizing control
A new up rise
Bring us glory
Free we are now
Part 1: Decent
Deep underground it lies hidden and waits
A demon seed man or beast a tragic fate
A dark secret of one thousand years
An experiment with life
It revealed a deeper fear mans eternal strife
Something went wrong so they hid the truth from it's eyes
They starved it of knowledge bound it's hands and fed it on lies
Deep in it's mind thoughts are suspended in hate
A frozen tomb earth's womb a dire state
Who am I what am I where am I
I cannot see I cannon feel I can't believe this is not real
A dark secret hidden far underground buried and left to die
But time revealed a deeper fear it was still alive
Part 2: Awaken
The creature stirs and slowly lifts its head
Not knowing whether it's alive or dead
It sees it's reflection but cannot believe
That the thing it sees before it has not one but two bodies
I can feel you we seem joined at the spine
So this is the reason they hid their crime
Are you just a part of me or can you hear my call
We must break free my silent twin and amaze them all
Rise
We can if we try leave this hell we share
To leave to break free to get somewhere
The deed is undone and the surface awaits
But she fell from his grasp as the earth began to quake
Deeper she fell until out of sight so he was left alone to face an eternal night
Part 3: Union
Lying on broken ground in the shadows never to be found
Her daylight's night her world is cold
Her spirit's lost a soul was sold
A memory from birth or was it just a dream
For in this world nothing is as it seems
His somber face passes by feigns disgrace and dares to try
Offering a word gets blank surprise
Offering herself he complies
He lifts her up she withers in his hands
No words spoken for eyes understand
He lifts her up to carry her away from the darkness to the light of day
Across the fields of souls forgot through mountains of pain
To the place paradise lost through the driving rain
He sheltered she but they did not know that she gave him life and so now he must go
Part 4: Solace
various sounds and chaos
Part 5: Ascent
Skin to skin upon the ocean they embrace and sink into the sea
Two became one but one had the notion
To live for their self and be free
Up from the depths a force it came the two that were one
Were now not the same one spread its wings and began to fly
One drifted away and began to die
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
Lyrics: E. Rosvold
As I turn and walk away
Can't believe the things you say
No more I cannot stay
I feel our time is over
I have always been the same
I am not the one to blame
Yourself and don't complain
I feel our time is over
I can't take this I can't fake this
Sometimes I just want to break it
No I can't just walk away
So much more we have to say
You love me I will stay
Maybe the pain is over
Long as you can bear the shame
I am not the one to blame
Is yours so don't complain
Maybe the hurt is over
Anger coming
Can't control me
Lost in agony
Pain is growing
Hatred growing
Anger flowing
The hating elevating
I feel my control is fading
Hear me as I plead
You better stay away from me
Pressure flowing
And now my anger is showing
The hating elevating
And now my control is fading
I will turn and walk away
Can't believe the things you say
No more I cannot stay
I feel our time is over
I have always been the same
I am not the one to blame
Is yours I feel no pain
Think clearly (I'm thinking so clear)
For our days seem much to long
Breath deeply (I am breathing so deeply)
If you dare, I am here
Lies, no more lies, piss away the sacrifice
You could not see me
Stop dreaming (I am dreaming)
For that's what you would have me do
Not believing (I believe)
Like the ocean side erodes the passion through
Lies, no more lies
Piss away the sacrifice
You could not see me
Days pass by
My windows shake the howling winds the pounding rain outside
Days pass by
In you, all in you, in you
You were the one to deny
All life presented before me
How could one have been so blind
Just a second to decide
(Days pass by)
My blood runs deep from the surface
On earth to serve my own purpose
(Days pass by) in you?
You were the one to deny me
All life presented before me
Give me wisdom father to son
Give me wisdom father to son
For your love and knowledge insight of direction
A certain connection of love and protection
My eyes get heavy
Give me your voice and strength
(Give me wisdom father to son)
My voice grows weak
To help protect and love
(Give me wisdom father to son)
I will not fall
The rain then hits my face
(For your love and knowledge insight of direction)
For I'm reborn
A state of mind body and soul
(A certain connection of love and protection)
Live and breathe
Feel the rain shower me
Like the ocean breeze
Winds guide me
With a (spirit) traveling
Watching over me
Give me wisdom father to son
Give me wisdom father to son
For your love and knowledge insight of direction
A certain connection of love and protection
Facing west from shores
Setting sun further still
(Give me wisdom father to son)
Of land yet unfound
Subsequent exploitation
(Give me wisdom father to son)
For we are together
To protect all we love
(For your love and knowledge insight of direction)
For we are one
Unity brothers in arm
(A certain connection of love and protection)
Live and breathe
Feel the rain shower me
Like the ocean breeze
Winds guide me
With a (spirit) traveling
Watching over me
Fight within troubles me
Can't seem to face this reality
Weakening
Give me space and time to think
Need a reason to climb so high
A new creation becoming
(Overpowering)
This lonely place
Will erase
I will find a way to view the sky
So very high
I have found a way
My mother's hand
I hold at last
Brings a smile to my face
A state of grace
Forever made
(For those who hold what's true)
Worlds divide
Clouds in the sky
Pale shades of white
Brought to life
A new voice inside
Streaks across the sky
Mother, remember how I learned from you
And father all the strength in me is from you
This holy place
I wish to stay
Visions fade away
Lost inside
Reality cries
Must I have to wake
Mind is calm
Pure and strong
The will to rise remains
The road is clear
No more fear
I will find my way
Worlds divide
Clouds in the sky
Pale shades of white
Brought to life
A new voice inside
Streaks across the sky
(Paints a picture of me)
There is no part of me
Have not given
Believe me
To see across the ocean
To fly above the mountains
Is to know my love
So the lightning crashes down
The thunder quakes to shake the ground
At that moment I awake to realize
It was just a dream
Realize the passion brought to me by my own mind
So the tears start to fall
And I realize who I am
Live and breathe
Feel the rain
Shower me
Like the ocean breeze
Winds guide me
With a (spirit) traveling
My world my life journey through time
Can't live must leave the hate behind
Pressure building inside my brain
Help me release the years the pain
Open my mind and look inside
Erase all thoughts I've denied
Don't close me up until their gone
No more agony shall linger on
When I awake I shall be free
From all haunting things that I see
Pressure building inside my brain
Help me release the years the pain
Visions slowly fading (They're fading out for me)
Memories I'm trading (I trade in to be free)
Feel them as they leave me (For all eternity)
Gone for all eternity (They leave me and I'm free)
I feel the cold sharpened steel tear above my brow
Constant pain inside my brain
My senses still alert somehow
My world my life journey through time
I live my life all thoughts behind
No more pressure inside my brain
Life has changed me, reality, the driving force
To stare it in the eye so deep, impossible for human eyes
The barrier the mind creates, seems unbreakable inside your head
The pain the heart sustains, is there an end? Is there an end?
Is there an end?
Time races faster, I can't catch my breath, so I push aside the negative
To grab a hold of reality, I will never give in
No, I will never give in
Life has changed me
For the real man is alive, I am alive
Free me, I am not to be held down
All this life I have to give, please allow
My God, please help me now, I need a sign
To carry on, I need You, I need You
Now the tide rolls ever gently to the shore
And the moon draws ever closer to my soul
As I stare closely to the sky
Peace finds a home
My heart has grown so strong
For this battle I have won
I will never give in, I will not fail, no
Pain still remains, redirect this change, release all the rage, that's in me
Mind screams to me, useless memories, brings me to my knees, no release
Death was only a vision, away, the only direction I knew
A path forever winding down, sanity find me somehow
So here we are to face the fear
Divided minds could never see so clear
Could dreams portray the true side, before the stars surrender to light?
I feel the earth turning beneath my feet
While the clouds seem to spin above my head
So here we are to face the fear
Divided minds could never see so clear
Could dreams portray the true side, before the stars surrender to light?
Pain still remains!
Darkness gathers, strength infecting me
Emptiness controls my every need
Distant memories are all I see
Spirals downward, drowning endlessly
I hold on tightly, I'm so afraid
And to let go would be my last mistake
Close my eyes, deep breaths
Close my eyes, deep breaths
Forever changing the story told, the inner core lost forevermore (forevermore)
Slowing down, I hit the ground to face the fear (that)
The end is near
Close my eyes, reach my demise, nothing left to fear
The end is here
The end is here
Time, time is lost - not mine, the inner changing ride I live
To tell my story lost in time, I'd live again - I'd live again!
Cities ablaze as we race
Through a concrete maze
Eyes ablaze
And die for a name
For heaven
In this deadly game
Tears can't quench these sands
Why fight for peace in a holy land
Night has died and with it may I
Admist wars fair the heroes lie
The smell of death chills the air
I look for myself but I'm nowhere
Deliver me my prayer
Eyes of Denial
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
"Intellect without the affections can create a monster"
I'll give the moon and the stars to my sons
And the earth and the sea to my bride
You are..
Hope
You are..
Light
You are..
Free
You are the breath in me
You are..
Light
The great nexus is intimate, the infections, you are safe
I'll gather the east and the western winds and harness them
And I'll throw every mountain into the sea
We are..
The light
We are..
The illumined ones
We are..
Free
To bask in the sovereignty, and live, and live, in what we see
Resist in what's inside my son
Cross over not that my heart is leading me
Pushed by last, but what is there?
Pushed by light, pushed by my fear
Pushed..Pushed.. Pushed..
Pushed..Pushed..
Pushed by last, but what is lurking?
It's raining on my soul!
Can your heart do what you love, just try
Listen to me, make a choice
Believing gives you the power to move
You are given a voice, look into your eyes
For the power inside awaits
You will have the strength of a thousand horses
Your ability to breathe
Is the evidence of the unseen
Say the words that part the sky
And the stars will be your compass to eternity
There is no barrier to withstand the love that drives
Hands will rebuild the new reality within
Frustrated with fragile mind
The rage binds my eyes
Straining bleeding dry
I reach my demise
Torn by my own screams
From an endless dream
Take another stride toward the dark side
Only fear remains who inflicts the pain
Won't you if I die give me wings to fly
Destiny is sorrow
Walk with me
Your soul will follow
Stories told tortured souls
The pain I fear is drawing near
Misguided lives find their demise
They cannot reach the other side
Destiny is sorrow
Walk with me
Future is hallow
Stagnant tears wandering fears
Sacrifice compromise
Destiny is sorrow
Walk with me
Insane tomorrows
Locked inside my world imprisoned by despair
Destined by the endless rhythms in the air
Sanctuary is never to be revealed
Spiraling down toward the vision so surreal
Take my hand walk with me again
See the light as it fades toward the end
No more time it's time for you to choose
No more endless fears
What more have you to lose
Fragile mind bleeding dry
I see the rage as it binds my eyes
Nothing left for me no more destiny
Fate is looking in and the light is getting dim
What am I to do I leave it up to you
I cannot look inside my fate has been denied
Peaceful strain no more pain
I drift away nothing more to gain
Peering down I never drown
I fade away nothing left to say
I am so lost I can't find my way home
You say a prayer so my soul will not roam
Who reigns who reigns who reigns
TWO EYES FLASH IN TWILIGHT TWO THOUGHTS IN RHYME
"GRAVITIES' MINE AND I'M PREPARED"
TWO FEET MEET IN RHYTHM TWO HANDS DID FIND
THE WEAK LINK THE TOWERS' SHARE
BENEATH THEIR FOUNDATIONS A RIVERS RAGE
THE DAMM THAT STANDS REVEALS ITS AGE
FROM THE CRACKS WATER'S FLOWING
AND MAKES A LINE DIRECTLY TOWARD
THE UNKNOWING
I CAN SET A FLOOD IN MOTION FOR THE ARROGANTS PLANS
ARE ALWAYS BUILT ON SAND
LIKE THE WIND DRIVES THE RAIN THE SUBTERRANEAN WILL BRING PAIN
I CAN FEEL THE SURGE OF MADNESS IN MIND
I CAN HEAR THE MINIONS MARCHING IN TIME
I CAN TASTE THE BREATHE OF FREEDOM
I'M FREE I AM FREE I AM FREE WE ARE FREE
TO ARM THE DISSIDENT AND THE DISPOSSED
I'LL BE THERE I WILL BE THERE
TO GIVE BACKPOWER AND TAKE WHAT IT POSSESED
I'LL BE THERE I WILL BE THERE
TO LIVE OUR DREAMS AND NOT ASK WHY
WE'LL BE THERE WE WILL BE THERE
TO SCALE THE MOUNTAIN TO REIGN ON HIGH
WE'LL BE THERE WE WILL BE THERE
RELIEVE US NOW OF MISERY THE WHEELS ARE SET IN SPIN
IN MOMENTS NOW THE END BEGINS AND HERE I'LL MAKE MY STAND
TO WATCH IT
FADE AWAY FADE AWAY FADE AWAY
WATER FILLS THE WAITING EARTH AND WASHES IT SO CLEAN
SWEPT UP IN THE RUSHING WAVES NOW I FEEL WHAT I MEAN
AND I FADE AWAY FADE AWAY FADE AWAY
AND I WASH AWAY WASH AWAY FADE AWAY
IT IS STARTING
THERE'S NO STOPPING
ALL'S COLLAPSING
WHAT IS HAPPENING?
CRIES TO SCREAMS SCREAMS TO CRIES CRIES TO MOANS
FLESH TO STEEL STEEL TO FLESH CONCRETE TO BONE
WATER BLED BLUE TO RED BLOOD TO WATER
LED TO HERE LED TO WHERE? LED TO SLAUGHTER
OVERWHELMING SOUND
SWAYING BREAKING SOUND
WAILING POUNDING SOUND
CRACKING CRUMBLING SOUND
THOUGHT I COULD LOSE THE THOUGHT THAT
BROUGHT ME TO THE THOUGHT THAT
BROUGHT ME HERE TO THIS DEMISE
THOUGHT I COULD LOSE THE THOUGHT THAT
RULES US ALL AND BELIEVES THAT
ONE MUST LOSE IN ORDER TO FIND
THOUGH THE STORM INSIDE ME
GAVE ME STRENGTH TO BE A MIGHTY RIVER
I WAS STILL NOT THE TIDE
THOUGHT HE COULD FREE THE WORLD AND SO FREE HIMSELF
BUT HE WAS HIS OWN DEMISE
IT IS STILL THE DAYLIGHT COMES
BUT NOTHING MOVES NOT ANYONE
AWAKE MY BENT AND BROKEN ONES
AND COME WALK WITH ME
YOU ALL SEEM PARALYZED
HOLLOW BODIES SUNKEN EYES
BUT WE HAVE WON WE ARE ALIVE
SO COME WALK WITH ME
WALK WITH ME FOR I HAVE HEALED YOUR PAIN
I TOUCH THE GROUND MY HAND PASSES THROUGH
BUT I FEEL THE TOUCH OF ALL OF YOU
LETTING GO I SLIP INTO THE OTHER SIDE
AND YOU WALK WITH ME YOU WALK WITH ME
SENT AWAY TO A PLACE I'VE NEVER SEEN
NO FEARS OR CARES HERE ALL IS SERENE
WHERE DID I FLY AWAY TO WHERE DID I FLY AWAY?
MILLIONS OF SPIRITS HAVE BEGUN TO GATHER
IN ORDER TO BE REBORN
MILLIONS OF VOICES IN UNISON CHANTING
THAT I MUST LEAD THEM ON
I SAY "WE MUST BRING THE OPPRESSOR HERE
TO SEEK SOLACE BY MEANS OF IT'S END
AND WE MUST REDEEM OUR OWN SELVES HERE
WE MUST BE SURE IT HAS NO LIFE AFTER DEATH"
WE WILL COMFORT YOU
WE WILL BRING YOU PEACE
WE BELIEVE IN YOU
WE WILL BE RELEASED
AND THEN WE'LL FLY AWAY TO A BETTER TIME
WHAT WE'LL FIND WE'LL WAIT AND SEE
IS IT MACHINE OR MAN MAN OR MACHINE
EVERY SINGLE ONE THAT SUFFERED
WANTS YOU THEY WANT YOU
STRANGE HOW WHAT I ONCE NEEDED THEY SEEK TODAY
DEATH DID NOT GAIN THEM FREEDOM SO HERE THEY STAYED
FROM WITHIN AND FROM WITHOUT REVENGE IS OURS THERE IS NO DOUBT
AND IN BETWEEN THAT AND THIS OUR OPPRESSOR WILL TASTE THE SERPENTS KISS

Distorted pictures
Clouds my mind
Wrath and anger
You are my angel
With wings to fly
Dark deceiver
Fallen beneath
I hold on tight
A bloodbath rage
When I twist the knife
Am I insane?
Have I lost my mind?
Cuts from my blade
Strip away your life
I wake to find you
Brutalized
Lost reflection
Panic sets in
No compromise
Endless screaming
Bleeding dry
Before my eyes
Echoing through my mind
Never find
Piece of mind
Answers to reasons why
Lifeless eyes
Haunt my mind
Buried beneath
Forever asleep
(Forever asleep)
Shattered dreams
Because of me
Memories fears and lies
Anger burns the child inside
As I turn and walk away
Can't believe the things you say
Frustrated with fragile mind
I feel the rage it binds my eyes
Poison me till Ecstasy
Drowning in my liquid dreams
Looking back I'm paralyzed
The dreaded memories inside
Agony corroding me
Keeping me from destiny
The tragedy the suffering
Deafened by the silent screams
Never more to hear them roar
Never more to be ignored
I'm craving feeding lost
I'm empty bleeding falling
Disdain is my outlook as well as my plan
Compelled to incarnate from spirit to man
He who controls me controls my lost fate
I re-live his torment and wait at his gate
Cast off warnings of fate decree
Glory is crimson my soul is set free
Gravity failing me see it all as I fall
Falling down through the ground
Bridges burned lessons learned
Who will be there for me
All is lost at what cost
Misery endlessly twice the pain who will reign
Redemption is all I seek
Free me from my suffering
Sanctuary's calling me
Away from infinity
Metamorphosis V - Ascent
Skin to skin upon the ocean they embrace and sink into the sea
Two became one but one had the notion
To live for their self and be free
Up from the depths a force it came the two that were one
Were now not the same one spread its wings and began to fly
One drifted away and began to die
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights no matter how far
Secrets deception
Answers to give their own strength
As I look into your eyes questions need
Your silence and compromise
In my mind your voice towards me is wasted time
In your life there's frustration
And we fight for your say
It's your time for creation
As your time fades away
Is there a right and is there a reason
Do they lie and blind our own eyes
We strive for life a fight in the system
Only to find they supply our destiny
Twisted Ignorance
To those he lies for his own gain
Will you side away or be blinded to mine
Do we still fight trying to seek life in a better light
In our day
Here in our life is there a chance for this place in time
So we know
Threats trades negative power in rage
In a system that still remains
Knowing what could be
As we ask alone
Will we see as one
Do we still fight trying to seek life in a better light
Here in our life is there a chance for this place in time
Is there a reason for all the wrong
We need a change in vision
Needed for us to grow
Why I was chosen you are to blame
My mission here in power is my domain
You look for the answers seeking the chance
Deep underground it lies hidden and waits
A demon seed man or beast a tragic fate
A dark secret of one thousand years
An experiment with life
It revealed a deeper fear mans eternal strife
Something went wrong so they hid the truth from it's eyes
They starved it of knowledge bound it's hands and fed it
on lies
Deep in it's mind thoughts are suspended in hate
A frozen tomb earth's womb a dire state
Who am I what am I where am I
I cannot see I cannon feel I can't believe this is not
real
A dark secret hidden far underground buried and left to
Metamorphosis III - Union
Lying on broken ground in the shadows never to be found
Her daylight's night her world is cold
Her spirit's lost a soul was sold
A memory from birth or was it just a dream
For in this world nothing is as it seems
His somber face passes by feigns disgrace and dares to try
Offering a word gets blank surprise
Offering herself he complies
He lifts her up she withers in his hands
No words spoken for eyes understand
He lifts her up to carry her away from the darkness to the light of day
Across the fields of souls forgot through mountains of pain
To the place paradise lost through the driving rain
Metamorphosis II - Awaken
The creature stirs and slowly lifts its head
Not knowing whether it's alive or dead
It sees it's reflection but cannot believe
That the thing it sees before it has not one but two bodies
I can feel you we seem joined at the spine
So this is the reason they hid their crime
Are you just a part of me or can you hear my call
We must break free my silent twin and amaze them all
Rise
We can if we try leave this hell we share
To leave to break free to get somewhere
The deed is undone and the surface awaits
But she fell from his grasp as the earth began to quake
