1. Evil that Men Do
They will say that i'm possessed
By a demon or better yet
A little green man from outer space
Who will destroy the human race
Point your finger at me
You'll be brought to your knees
2. Now He Is Gone
On a hill there is a spark
Where the light would spread and strangle the dark
A little girl stands at the door
Looking at the blood stains on the floor
Now he is gone, my little darling don't you cry
For he will return, you must decide
Through the city they carry a man
Washing their hands in the brandy of the damned
Torches burn oh so bright
Burn out the day burn out the night
A soul cleaves unto the dark
It melts for heaviness in the musk
The stranger wandered the face of the earth
Coming with the answers or on a search
3. Fly Away
Take a little and leave a lot
I'm in control calling the shots
It's coming down from the sky
Appointed unto man once to die
I have no world but the one to come
I am a loner what have i done
I won't leave 'till i've shown you right
Attack i may i love to fight
I'm being caught away
You rapture my soul
I'm being caught away
Life will take it's toll
I'm only passing through what they call life
I'll get it with or without pain and strife
He suffered once, i will too
I just hate to leave without you
4. Forever In Darkness
You will hear in the distance
The children are whining
Oh how i cherish the thoughts
When the sun stops shining
The streets will grow silent
And they all go down
The grave how she burns
As i look into the ground
Forever in darkness away from rain
Forever in darkness to wear the chains
Scarlet beast shall rise
And takes a deep breath
There is no heart
Under her velvet chest
Oh how sweet is death
There's no more there's no less
But for those who deny
They run to the hills and hide
5. Follow Your Heart
In this space and time that we inhabit
Sometimes don't we feel like an exhibit
Growing up isn't something easy to do
Feeling so free we can't lose
Follow your heart not your head
Follow the voice within
Follow your heart not your head
It's calling you again
When wrong speaks to you in the night
Right isn't far behind in the light
Our little minds wander away sometimes
As long as they return we live fine
When your dreams fall beneath your feet
Out souls reach up searching for peace
Go ahead reach up a little higher
Don't leave 'till you've felt the power
6. Show No Mercy
There's an incredible humor to my treason
I surrendered the dark side for a reason
I will lift my sword and fight to the end
I won't give up because i just began
Show no mercy
I won't lay my weapons down to rest
I'll give it my all i'll give it my best
I will fight to win this war
Never settle for an even score
I am strong and your are weak
Jesus gives me power to defeat
I can't be bought and won't sell out
The battle cry is good and loud
7. I Will Be With You
I've been searching for a way
To fill this emptiness inside of me
The only time i feel secure
Is when you're holding me in these dreams
I don't know what you've been told
There's a better life on the other shore
I should be with you
I will be with you
8. Thunder In The City
I won't be a part of you
I'm in a world of my own
You know i'll see it through
I can't be burnt and won't lie like you
Destination overdrive
Destination overdrive
You can be just like me
Just like me
You can be
Thunder, thunder in the city
Up to ten then a little more
Pushing highter we're going to soar
Feel the force against your chest
Riding on the wings of our jet
9. No Matter The Price
Emerging form the mist of dawn
A new day to live more life that goes on
Deceiving are the song birds at play
Masking all the works that time has swept away
All that we have known is gone
We face the emptiness of nowhere to run
We are the children of the setting sun
No matter the price it must be paid
We stand our ground we are not afraid
Entrenched in fire he takes, never to give
He is the liar we must finght to live
Dancing in the visions of a chemical escape
A mind that's a waste land marcotic rape
Planning derision's of evil thoughts within
From inside a blackened soul
You can see the dark ones grin
10. The First Will Be Last
Where will you be when the moon turns to blood
When the sun won't shine and the stars fall from above
Has love taken you high or has pride taken you low
The elements are coming apart the atoms letting go
The first will be last
The last shall be first
The hungry shall be fed
While the filled will thirst
You can take every breath with the devil's daughter
The carnage of our passion
Leads you to the slaughter
Just a memory of her face mindless begs your sleep
Break free of the bondage of disbelief
The cities glow and the kings rise and fall
Conviction of your sould leaves you walking on the walls
The chandeliers glisten with their reflections of light
Dancing in the shadow out the night
