4. Hands of Time
1. Visionary
In the endless turning
within the back of my mind
is a world I cannot ponder
Can there be a future
will the images die
my inner peace must pull me onward
If these visions remain any longer
constant thoughts and dreams will control my mind
From the unknown darkness
awakes a tell tale sign
of misery and unknown splendor
Tearing forth at feelings
reaping all that is mine
solitude is not the answer
From the moment that time left me standing
I felt an anger that burried my soul
Will the silence return as a traitor
or will this anger burn out of control
Contemplate Eviscerate
the mind and the body are one
Futurize Fantasize
the power of thought has become
This vision is all that I see
what will become of me
Take a walk with me I will show you fantasy
Come inside my mind I will teach you misery
Voyage through my eyes now you know what I see
Imminent demise what can I believe
Is there understanding
images darken thdarken the known
Ungodly Commanding
descend to a world down below
Crying and fearing and losing time
frightened by what I can't see
Endless are terrors I cannot define
eternal sight I now concede
Come and see the future
underneath the lies
come alone and do not wander
Through the deepest sorrow
to the darkest night
to the place that keeps my honor
From the moment that time left me standing
I felt an anger that burried my soul
Will the silence return as a traitor
or will this anger burn out of
Contemplate Eviscerate
the mind and the body are one
Futurize Fantasize
the power of thought has become
This vision is all that I see
what will become of me
2. Dissension's Wake
Out of temptation A new age is dawning
the helpless sinners will follow until the end
Captured by regret and humbled by triumph
their solemn hearts together shall repent
See the day behold the tragedy
Be not afraid and find what is meant to be
Anger remains and falters endlessly
Keep me from falling into dissension's wake
With this knowledge I pray for a sign
distant lights are fading into memories
Once a sinner who beckoned the night
now a savior with secrets kept inside of me
Holding the answers and begging for hope
sands of time have fallen and cannot return
Reaching out to embrace the new day
finding strength and the will to not betray
Lead me on show me where I belong
Relive let it begin
Commense the feelings within
Transform the words for a while
Believe reconcile
Into redemption the future is calling
to hide the truth and see beyond the past
Light begins shining and faith realigning
this world of freedom remains forever vast
See the day behold the tragedy
Be not afraid and find what is meant to be
Anger remains and falters endlessly
Keep me from falling into dissension's wake
3. Arisen
A lonely silence has touched the ground
where innocence once felt the sky
In a shadow of a heart gone cold
he pauses and waits for a sign
while sadness and fate pass him by
Through the darkness a voice cries out
and ressurects a life within
Seeking freedom from fear and doubt
a sentence of living with sin
shall fall and a new life begin
Straight into the dawn
the mystery is gone
a vengefull spirit rises free
Speak to me I am not afraid
Hear me I am the truth
I am the one who is destined forever
The stars and the sun will guide me to the sea
The wind is screaming
he claws at the night
The smell of fear is carried in the air
Relentless unfeeling
the pain is in his sight
His vengeance the only care
On and on into tomorrow
a quest into eternity
His spirit portrays everlasting desire
to bring mankind down
On and on into tomorrow
a quest into eternity
4. Hands of Time
Let go of anger and offer youself unto me
this night
I am the reason you fear the light
Summon the demon hide what you say
the pain is the answer and why you obey
There was a time when our faith was alive
saddened by truth we all must find a way
Give me your fallen hear them weep
watching and waiting for release
Feel the power I bestow
my untold desire is all you will know
This is the time when our faith must survive
gather your strength we rise at the break of day
It was just a forbidden lair
hands of time have taken us there
With this yearning resistance is born
to carry on
Foresaken dreamer condemn me and alter your fate
Fearful of torment my lies speak
wretched believers banish me
Hidden amongst them lying in wait
a painful reminder that I will create
This is the time when our faith must survive
gather your strength we rise at the break of day
It was just a forbidden lair
hands of time have taken us there
With this yearning resistance is born
to carry on
