Here I Come
03:51
|
|||
Let the land tremble
Let the earth shake
Hide beneath the rocks
Hide from your fate
With all my strength
Here I come
Repent now
Because you cannot run
Bow and surrender now
All the land shall pray
Lest the rocks cry out
In your place
All glory and might
Surrender unto me
That you might meet
Eternity
Here I come...
Here I come...
There is no escape from what's to come
The damage is already done
Atone for the sins of this land
The hour is near at hand
Here I come...
Here I come...

John
04:30
|
|||
Tower, tower on the hill
The sun shone bright at dawn
But when the king of power fell
The grass had blood upon
John, you fell broke your head
But they'll put you together again
Moonlit sky and tower high
The weeping never dries
Bitter stains and purple haze
Confounds their shattered minds
John, you tripped, fell down the hill
You crown is bleeding still
Tower, tower on the hill
The trumpet sounds at noon
The eyes on you are watching still
Darkness is coming soon
Molten cast into form
A shape of mankind
Resembling the lines held before
A wicked state of mind
When tower falls, the shattered walls
Crumbling to the ground
The bridges burned, the fruit has turned
Spoil as it all falls down
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
The monster turned on us
Know thou the hour hand
The clock tick tocks away
Did you know it's all a show?
A hour upon the stage
Ceremony and suicide
The lies and lives they lead
Hour hand a razor edge
A dweller in the deep

Apparition
04:00
|
|||
What is this that has appeared
A shadow stands, I'm filled fear
No one around are you real?
Am I alone or is it near?
Hair on my neck stands on end
I shudder to catch a glimpse
Paranoid, I look behind
Apparition in my midst
Leave me alone today
I don't want to be afraid
Leave me alone spirits at play
Leave me alone, I say
Then, its back in the hall
I see you lurking by the wall
Hidden thing, I see you now
I have the force, I cast you out
Torment me no longer
Feel my power getting stronger
Apparition, leave me be
Begone away from me
Apparition, leave me be
I wanna find peace this day
Apparition, back away
Apparition, leave me be
I need to find the space to breath
Apparition, why do you torment me
Now I say, you've been chained
Down in the dark you'll stay
Apparition, back away

Tick Tock
04:10
|
|||
Look up at the sun
The stars and the moon
Their light has withdrawn
The time is soon
Time is drawing near
Mountains, valleys, full of fear
Hands shake on the clock
Time is close, tick tock
Hour hand shortly span
Time drifted away
Midnight struck, hour stuck
Only for a day
"Tick tock," said the clock
Your hour is drawing near
Time kept on moving
So grew the fear
Holding hands while the world ends
Bound to our bitter fate
The crack in the crevice exposes
The hour is getting late
|

Past Future
04:01
|
|||
The time is approaching
I feel it in the wind
Echoes from the future
Has the past occurred again
Am I lost in a dream?
How can I be sure
When did the stars go out?
Past Future
Distorted, time has been
Nowhere left to go
Only to the end
Cold the wind that blows
We all move through
No longer where we were
No choice to stay
Past Future
Linger no more
As time rushes in
Clocks spin backwards
Echoes ripple
Like songs in the wind
Hanging on every word
|
||||

The Market
03:21
|
|||
Flesh and bone, the currency
Souls of mortal men
Bought and sold in the market
Bonds they'll put you in
A hot iron searing the soul
Like lambs to the knife
Marked, bought, and paid for
Tagged and put in line
One by one, they walk ahead
Slaughterhouse awaits
The masses moving clueless
Toward their butchered fate
Don't take your soul to market
No matter what is gained
There is no escape
From bondage and from chains
|

The Meadow Song
04:02
|
|||
I stood in the midst of the meadow
The grass moved around me
There was a breeze in the air
I saw the birds in the trees
The winds picked up steam
The trees swayed in the breeze
Fear swept over me
The birds started to flee
The birds know, they go to and fro
Watching me in the meadow
The eyes see, perched in the trees
Watching me in the meadow
Who taught you how
To know where to go?
I wait for the day
Maybe I'll know
Watching the birds
They're watching me
Up comes the wind
It blows through the trees
Obey your master's voice
You always have a choice
Listen and take heed
Listen to the warning
The birds are a sign
To warn the wise
Open your eyes
And watch the skies
A place prepared
That no evil knows where
In that meadow
I'll wait for you there...
|
||||

Let Me In
04:24
|
|||
Knock knock, open up your door,
I have a gift for you...
A secret treasure not seen before
Something shiny and new...
All I ask, it's not a sin
Open up and let me in
Just unlock that little latch
And I'll give you what you ask
Let me in...
Please open up I need a home
My fur is wet and I am cold
I need shelter from the storm
I need a place where its warm
Scratching on your door I beg you
Let me in I need refuge
Somewhere secret I can hide
I need skin to dwell inside
Let me in...
Time has forsaken me
My fear is running deep
So let me... Let me inside
Give me your soul to keep
I'll take you to the top of the mountain
I'll take you to the depths of the sea
I'll give you the stars in the sky
Just kneel down and worship me
Wrap you up in chains of gold
Don't you see you've sold your soul
Opened up that special door
You are mine forever more...
Shhh...
|

Now
04:44
|
|||
Everything is backwards
And no one has the answer
But everyone is talking
And nobody is watching
Sky is growing blacker
Days are getting faster
Time has come for action
The time is now
Rise up put your fear away
Now you have a choice
Draw your sword stand up tall
Shout with your voice
You know the time is now
Time is running out
Run now for the door
Time will wait no more
Everywhere around there are
Smiles selling lies
Hiding in the dark
Behind the eyes that shine
Watch the skies ahead
For the day of dread
This world's at an end
So, please don't pretend
Know the time is now
Time is running out
Seek him out and pray
This could be your last day
You know the time is now
You better seek him out
Witness now and pray
These are the end of days
|

10. |

World still turns
Scorching wind burns
Hour has come to stand
Quickly, go forth
Set your course
Forsake this broken land
Risen in place
Teeth at the gate
Soldiers armed for war
Boots on the ground
Towers fall down
Nothing is left anymore
So I run far from here
There is so much fear...
Stand up, run for your life
Bone valley dry
The time has come to fly
Under the bloodstained sky
Belonging nowhere
So much despair
Thick is the dark of the air
So little time
Shift of the tide
Mount on my horse and ride
Weapon in hand
Nothing can stand
Run now while you still can
Forsake your life
To save it tonight
The fires of hell burn bright
Echoes of screams
Run through the trees
Everyone must flee
So I run far from here
There is so much fear...
Stand up, run for your life
No time to wait
Death's at the gate
The hour is getting so late
Escape from this land
Escape while you can
Escape from the Devil's hand
Bone valley dry
Time's come to fly
Under the bloodstained sky
Dwellers of nowhere
So much despair
Dark is the smoke in the air
So I run far from here
There is so much fear...

Reflection In the Water
03:56
|
|||
Seated on the clouds so high
He looked and saw his reflection
Discord twisted his mind
He saw there was perfection
Looking in the deep
He saw his beauty fair
Fell for his reflection
In the water there
Looking up he saw the King
His mind was filled with jealousy
So he went to and fro
Formed a plan to seize the throne
"Mirror on the wall
I am the greatest of us all
Look upon my strength and might
I am the greatest light"
The mirror is a violent end
Narcissism is a sin
Pride goes before a fall
Look at he who lost it all
|

Rebellion
04:19
|
|||
Within the gate was rebellion
Up above, the door was kicked in
Power and danger, drums and trumpets sound
Golden army cast them to ground
Shattered dis-aligned in vain
The stars left their estate
Dismantled their hearts in sin
Cannot come back again
Disillusioned by his tale
He pulled down two more as he fell
Down in the darkness they gathered together
Wept as they gathered each other's hands they hold
They went to and fro seeking all who'd follow
Starved unforgiven they went forth spreading woe
The stars arose and shone their light
The people stopped and stared
No one could tell it was night
And if they could, they didn't care
Soft voices led them away
Broken vessels on the stage
A city of night, of night
The stars are alight, a light
No one can save them now
Skeletal screams
In nightmares and dreams
Rebellion of the fallen ones
|

Powerless
04:07
|
|||
Fear gathers around me
My power growing strong
Then, the four winds surround me
Power in my song
I am not alone
And I am not afraid
No one can stand
Long in my way
I am not weak
Wind in my sails
Jesus sets my course
I will prevail!
I'm not powerless
I'm not powerless
I'm not powerless
I'm not powerless
Count the hours
Now, count the cost
Every moment is a
Second that's been lost
Time works against you
But time you have now
A moment in your hands
Will you make it count?
You're not powerless
Seek forgiveness
There's an exit
From this darkness
|

My Torment
04:47
|
|||
Clockwork in the head
Gears turn in tune
Machine has many ghosts
Voices of doom
My torment is a fury
The dark and raging sea
The anger turns to violence
The voices torment me
Fire burning in my mind, why!?
Peace I cannot find
Don't tell me what I've lost
Don't you think I know the cost
Burden in my hand I hold
Don't you think I know?
My torment is a raging sea of flame
Peace of mind I can't find
Treasure hidden from me
Tormented one cankered sun
Burning pain does sting
There's a stain blacked out my name
All that's left is the pain
Forever in chains bound as a slave
All to chase a dream
Don't tell me what I've lost
Don't you think I know the cost
Burned my ticket lost my soul
Heaven's door is forever closed
My torment is a raging sea
Fire death and agony
Deep inside my tortured mind
I have hell contained inside
|

Burdened Beast
03:46
|
|||
Broken back of the
Burdened beast
Bound up
To be released
A raising up
A tearing down
The violence grows
Among the crowd
Freedom it seeks
From the yoke it bears
To be set free
From the chains it wears
Time will not be long...
Until the end of song...
The beast will roam, free from the cage
Be aware and run away
Burdened beast no longer bound
Stomping feet shatter the ground
A raising up
A tearing down
Shattered and burned
Down to the ground
|

Calibrated Movement
04:37
|
|||
Fire and fury
Fills the western sky!
Our freedoms have been challenged,
We ate the bitter lie.
Lion tune to foretell,
The lie of destiny,
Crippled, lost desires,
Fractured and free.
Destruction as a unit:
Calibrated Movement.
"All your promises you made (made)
You sold us only lies! (lies)
Our souls are a waste; (waste)
A failure of mankind!" (mankind)
Sutured up the scars
Built up for a week
"We will have success,"
Golden mouth doth speak
Can't you hear the sound of wings
Flying through the night?
Locusts will devour
Everything in sight!
Fracture in the pavement:
Broken entertainment.
Failed and lost alone... (alone)
Torn apart and used... (used)
Bitter tears of the crowd... (crowd)
Weeping for Tammuz... (Tammuz)

On My Way
04:18
|
|||
Running as fast as I can
I'm coming for you
Weapon in my hand
Tick-tock, drop of the sand
Nothing left to lose
Not a mortal man
Slither away, little snake
Lies you've spoke and
Tales you've spun
Got everyone on the run
But one day you darkness
Will be undone
I call you forth
Time's end
I need to to reach me
Faster clocks will spin
Power in the wind
I am on my way
No time to bend
I am on my way
Feet moving fast
I am on my way
Time's come to pass
I am on my way
Tonight, fire is burning bright
Battle cry, trumpet attack
Eagle wings upon my back
Time has come, there is no turning back
Sand running down but I am on my way
Time's spinning out but I am on my way
Smoke is ascending, I am on my way
This is the ending, I am on my way
I am on my way
I am on my way
I am on my way
I am on my way

The Devil's Playhouse
04:11
|
|||
Deep inside the mind, a hidden place
A door's been kicked in, a scarlet stain
"Dance," the master says as he pulls your strings
"Dance my puppet dance, my plaything."
Somewhere out there
The free birds fly
I wish I were free
To free the breeze
To see the sky...
Get out of my head
Thoughts are broken
Mind invader
Your voice has spoken
I never wanted this...
I never fathomed it...
I wish I were free
But the devil's' playhouse is me
Trapped in chains of gold
My soul's been sold
Somewhere out there
The free birds fly
I wish I was free
To feel the breeze
To see the sky...
Lost in this place
I am so cold
The dark trees sway
I've lost my soul
Oh no..
Oh no..
|

Rise
04:47
|
|||
In the garden he spoke to me
He said, "Rise up, I have a job for thee."
I heard and said, "Direct me, Lord."
He sent the wind to give a word
Take up thy cross to carry
Fear not and do not tarry
The pain will come and tears will fall
In the end it will be worth it all
Arise, arise take up the blade
Grab your shield of faith
Live to fight another day
Hours so long, they wear out my mind
Fight the darkness behind the illusion and lies
Rise the time is now
You must find your way out
Trumpets blare over the sound of drums
A foretelling of what is to come
Life runs out like sand of time
The time is close, you must arise
Be asleep no longer child
Oh, the wolves are growing wild
Arise, arise put on your shoes
You should have a clue
You should know what to do
Arise, arise are you so blind
You can't see the time
See the stars fall from the sky
In the garden, he spoke to me
He said "Rise up and see."
I arose and this is what I saw
Thieves climbed over the garden wall...
|
||||
20. |
||||
Upon the precipice
I stood at the mound of my grave
The flesh I once wore
Dirt tired and worn
I left it there that day
Buried it deep in the ground
And went on my way
Entered into this world a creature of sin
Was born into this world to die
But I have been born again
I went in dark and came out light
I have crucified my flesh
Left it behnd to die
Reborn in the water
I am reborn in the light
Nothing can stop me now
Hardened from the clay
No force on this earth
Can stand in my way
Forced into the bowels of the world
Trapped inside eternal night
I am not afraid nor ashamed
I went in dark and came out light

Conduct
04:24
|
|||
Conductor in dress stands up front
Cold and serious as he begins
No mistakes as he lifts his hand
1...
2...
3...
And then...
Oh, the band begins, every piece in it's place
Conductor grins as he sways
The audience, a smile on every face
Oh, they cheer for they're entertained
The children adore the show
Oh, their parents do not know
Dance around as they hum
Blind and deaf they've become
Time is coming to the end
Conductor stands to start
Oh, the band's about to perform
As he conducts his part
Every puppet has a string and their master pulls them
Everyone thinks they're in charge and their master fools them
Everyone has someone that they serve
No one is exempt from the written word
Whoa... Start the show...
Time is here, time to go...
He plays the strings
He conducts, they sing
|

I Can Bear No More
03:53
|
|||
Round and round
Round and round it spins
Ceaseless torment
Make it end
I can bear no more
I can bear no more
Burden of the mind
The noise won't subside
Horses spin in time to the
Screaming rhyme
Colors lights and dreams
Nothing is as it seems
Mind slips away
Nothing more to say but
I can bear no more
I can bear no more
The pressure is on
The heat is thick
The smell of this air
Is making me sick
No one can stop this
Machine from its course
Time is the wheel
Unstoppable force
Carousel
Ceaseless noise
Spinning lights
Into the void
|

The Sandman Cometh
04:30
|
|||
In the dreams, he walks to and fro
In the night time, he's free to go
The midnight man of the hour
In the darkness, he has his power
Oh, beware your slumber
Beware the spell you're under
The sandman cometh
Cometh in the night
Comes to take away
To take away your light
Dancing in the darkness
Bitter vine it spreads
Bloody and devoured
The feeble mind is dead
What is this, you ask yourself
In the darkness of your mind?
What is this?
What did you find?
The sandman has taken you
A puppet on the string
You opened up the door
To become a plaything...
The sandman cometh in the night
He comes to put out any light
In his hands you'll come to harm
Power, danger, in his charm
|

Failure To Comply
03:25
|
|||
Enter in the city
Kick in all the doors
Time has come kneel
Fall and kiss the floor
There's been a failure to comply
Up against the wall!
Someone sound the alarm!
Spare no one at all...
Shaking and turning
Can't stop them burning
Moaning and crying
Everyone's dying
Shaking and turning
Can't stop them burning
Moaning and crying
Everyone's dying
Kick in the gate
Burn the houses down
Drink up their tears
Drink until you drown
Boots against their battered skulls
Blood on the street
Smoke ascendeth in the clouds
Feel a hellish heat
There has been a failure
Time has come to die
There has been a failure
To comply
After all the bodies burning
The stink is growing strong
On the war machine keeps turning
Ending won't be long

Travelling Through Time
04:39
|
|||
Long ago, at the dawn of time, He knew me
Formed the earth, the wind, the sky, the rocks, the trees,
All life sprung up from the land and sea,
Travelling through time, He set the course, full knowing,
The journey is set
All will be fulfilled
Travelling through time
All things in his will
Nothing can stop the wheel of time from turning
Like the force of a rushing stream the river yearning
As the time gets very near, the wind will blow
Storms will rumble in the sky, oh then they'll know...
Oh, I know which way the wind blows
Full in my sails, fast my ships goes
Travelling through time all is fulfilled
All evil forces will fail
The mystery of God will then be revealed
Time comes to lift the veil
Onward, travelers of time,
The day we all head toward
And don't let time pass you by
Keep your feet forward
|

The Eyes They Do See
03:28
|
|||
Not for you to see
Back away from me
Watching me, everything I do
This isn't for you
This isn't for those who
Wait behind the walls of view
They can see it all
Eyes are watching me...
Hats as tall as towers
Oh their eyes do see...
Shadowy forms in the corner of my eye
Shifting shapes in disguise
I can discern you I see through
Nothing is hidden from view
Not too far away is the day
Where you'll be exposed in the light too
Blood red staring eyes watching me
Why are you there?
Why do you care?
Eyes staring at me...
Sitting behind the darkened veil
Watching everything...
Tick tock says the clock
The eyes they do see.
|
||||
27. |
||||
And that was the last thing I heard
That terrible sound and then silence
Nothing could touch me...
I was past the gates of death...
My body fell the blood ran down
The scream I must have screamed
But it's so far from me now...
So far away, like a dream...
Like a dream...
As the blood crept down, the tears they stained
Our weeping prayers echoed
Then, the savior came, he shut all our eyes
This is the last song before we go
That was the end, Omega had come...
In the end we fall, we die one and all
No one ever escapes
There is an exit now: a doorway out
It is that door that I take
I am beyond the reach of that place
I am beyond, no more pain
|

28. |
Ascending
05:12
|
|||
I'm rising, I'm rising,
No longer bound,
I'm rising, I'm rising,
Feet off the ground,
Higher, higher,
No longer bound,
Higher and higher,
Feet off the ground,
Ascending, ascending,
Peace all around,
Ascending, ascending,
Unchained and unbound,
Higher, higher
Peace all around,
Higher and higher
Unchained, unbound,
Fly away,
Fly away,
Fly away,
Fly away
Ascending,
I am ascending beyond,
I am beyond!
