BLACK MAJESTY LYRICS
"Sands of Time" (2002 EP)
1. Fall of the Reich
2. Guardian
3. Beyond Reality
1. Fall of the Reich
Life has passed us by
as though time was standing still
An endless era like the melting snow
Fifty years have gone by
but not a day will pass
To remind us of the pain
I'm lost in thought and my body is standing still
Now glancing into darkened state of mind
Memories from the inner self
The threads of life that bound me were
severed long ago
[Pre chorus]
In a time when all was chaos and the truth
Would lie the world saw lost corrupted minds
[Chorus]
We are searching for a world of change
Conflicts divide and they unite
Fall of the Reich
When a nation is united and the people are as one
Fall of the Reich
Throughout the ages the stories have been told
Visionary madman who have tried
to rule the world
Manipulate the masses to reform their ways
They'll rebel against the call
[Solo]
[Pre chorus]
[Chorus]
2. Guardian
Destiny hands of injustice delivered
[Pre Chorus]
What has been received is not always as it seems
Standing and alone the light fades as he leaves
[Chorus]
Saviour be known
Say a prayer to keep us safe
Your words will prevail and set us free
Father of time the sands are drifting
Through your hands like water
Guardian
Draining life controlled by a life of deception
He has seen the visions that guide us to wisdom
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Solo]
Life's embraced denied is the moment of dying
Time is now relinquish your thoughts
and your demons
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge 1]
He's alive - standing right before you
He'll show you a paradise
Time to change your ways
[Bridge 2]
There's a life you left behind
Just a reminiscence of mankind
There's a life you left behind
and now it's gone
In time I'll change my way
3. Beyond Reality
Through eyes filled with wonder I see a
world behind
The Ferris wheel of life that I am riding on
In search for its answer truth it seems to disappear
Hoping to find solace in the things I know are real
[Pre Chorus]
Can I be freed from the torment in my mind?
Walking away
Can I leave it all behind
Can I find comfort in the fact that I'm not sane?
Look towards the future in a pessimistic way
[Chorus]
Beyond reality life in question
Can there be more than we see
Beyond reality dividing moments
Testing our faith in what we believe
Look beyond the picture right there in front of you
Things are much deeper now if you dare to take a look
Shifting through dimensions of another time and place
So set your mind free
To express its willingness
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Solo]
The picture is clearer it is behind you now
Things are not deep as you would have once
thought
Shifting dimensions you found the
time and place
You've let your mind free
to express its willingness
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]
