1. Intro
2. Legend of Huma
Oh - the armies of darkness are coming to poison the lands
Takhisis, the queen of the night has risen again
Five-headed dragon returned from the land of the dead
To enslave us all
Oh - may Paladine smile upon us as we go to war
Like ancient Solamnic Knights have battled before
Defenders of light, sworn to fight for us all
To save the world
PRE-CHORUS:
Silver and gold - the dragons of light
Pushing the darkness aside
The Measure and Code - the law of the knights
Echoing in my mind...
CHORUS:
My honour - is my life
My honour - will survive (REPEAT)
Oh - as I look deep into the elf-maiden's eyes
Gwyneth, my love, don't you mourn for me if I die
Your memory will pass with me into the next life
You’ll always be part of me
Now - as I ride through the sky, a dragon of silver below
The dragon is one with Gwyneth, but how could I've known?
I focus my mind, remember the Solamnic Oath
As we reach the queen...
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO: Tim
Flames were all around, they heard the victory cry
Ansalon was spared, but they knew they'd reached their time
With their final breath, her secret was set free
'Huma, I'm one with you - you're one with me...'
Now as you look into the sky, there's two new shining stars
The legend handed down from son to son, sung by bards
The dragon and the ancient knight did defeat the evil queen
They went to their deaths together with a love that could never be...
REPEAT CHORUS x 2
3. Resurrection
A memory of a time
When we were proud to live our dreams
There'll be no compromise
Standing tall, we will be supreme
PRE-CHORUS:
No-one could crush our will to be
This time we're gonna make them see...
CHORUS:
The resurrection time is now
Forever we survive
Back from the grave to take control
Forever...
The resurrection time is now
Returning from the fire
We have the strength, we have the power
Forever we survive...
They tried to tear us down
Rape our hearts and steal our dreams
This time we won't hold back
Glory bound, we claim our victory...
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS and CHORUS
SOLO: Both
BRIDGE:
Standing tall and standing proud
The beast inside is breaking out...
SOLO: Tim / Stu / Both
REPEAT CHOURS
4. First Day in Tokyo
5. Paradise
I felt so weak, all hope was gone
My skin blistered slowly away
Gangrene and Smallpox - no life left inside of me
The pain that I felt was unreal...
PRE-CHORUS:
I make my last stand as success comes my way
My bones gain their strength, nothing stands in my way
The final encounter decides who will win
Desire to live will survive...
CHORUS:
Running away to paradise - victory in my sights
Running away to paradise - the gods are on my side
My body aching - scarred, torn and wretched
Forced to go on through the pain
Was it will that revived me, brought life back inside of me
With blood flowing fast though my veins...
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS and CHORUS
SOLO: Dale / Both
REPEAT CHORUS x 2
SOLO: Tim / Dale
6. Night Out in Tokyo
7. Insanity's Fall
United we stand
All intention is clear
Enraged by injustice
No longer blinded by fear
BRIDGE 1:
Young blood within us
Tired of wasting time
We will crush you - all! (DIE!)
Never doubting
Always in control
Believing in something
We've never known at all
BRIDGE 2:
Young blood within us
Strength born of fire
We will rise up - high!
CHORUS:
Insanity's fall - divided and torn
In glory or death we will rise
Fire in our eyes, in cold frost of night
Our guide into darkness will die...
Hardened by anger
Our salvation draws near
My heart, my soul
My life - my own
BRIDGE 3:
Too late - I know
I see the forces rising
Before the lines I pray
The future will be...
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO: Tim / Tim / Dale Corney
REPEAT CHORUS
8. Signing Session
9. Netherlife
SOLO: Tim
A shadow falls upon the night
A freezing cold and fear - my herald call
A noble man once long ago
Now evil burns within my soul
The power is mine, no one I fear
When life or death is my command
I'd trade it all to turn back time...
I was once a mortal man
Saw jealousy arise - my pride and fall
I do not live, I cannot die
I'm cursed to walk these streets alone
Eternal life but not alive
The Banshees cry my tragic tale
Every morning with the dawn...
CHORUS:
Blackened heart, blackened soul, netherlife
All I am, all I feel, all I see
Black roses die...
SOLO: Tim / Stu
From the night I betrayed my world
And myself
I still feel the flames
Burned - scarred
What is left of me? What remains?
Cursed - scorned
My foolish pride!
Eternal life, eternal death - I paid the price...
SOLO: Stu / Tim / Tim
REPEAT CHORUS
10. Osaka Highlights
11. Lost in the Light
HARMONY
A plastic life inside a plastic world
No longer feel the fire
So sanitised, integrity's demise
It's evil in disguise...
We blindly trust our guiding light
Following misguided dreams
What have we done? We've gone too far...
Unwise to the world, we're told what to see
Force-fed a life so sugary sweet
Never questioning the world around us
Never dared to look inside...
CHORUS:
We are lost in the light
Inner darkness that betrays the night
Is this the world we wanted?
Somehow we've lost our way...
We've lost our way...
SOLOs: Tim
(SPOKEN OVER SOLO)
Censored thoughts, so far removed from life
Everything we see on TV, the music we hear, the games we play
Twisted and diluted to "protect us"
Is it any wonder our children are looking elsewhere for the truth?
Feeling the anger rise when they learn it's all been lies...
SOLO: Dakk / Tim
HARMONY
Deprived of the truth, we're told what to feel
Accepting their words, a world beyond real
What once began with the best intentions
Somehow ended up as lies...
REPEAT CHORUS
OUTRO VOCALS + SOLO: Tim
12. Osaka Streets
13. I Am Death
Death - the anti-hero, champion of the doomed
I'll be there to end your life, to take you to your tomb
I will seal your fate, before me you'll decay
There's no escape, your soul is gone - I'll steal your life away
PRE-CHORUS:
I'll end your suffering, I'll end your pain
When you take your final breath - then you'll know my name...
CHORUS:
I am death (death - death - death) x 4
I live within the hungry children on the streets
I'm the disease that kills you while you sleep
I am the needle that's in the junkie's arm
I am the tormentor - the storm before the calm
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS and CHORUS
SOLO: Tim / Stu
They call me the reaper - I am the man in black
When you give your life to me, there is no turning back
You will know the end is near - you'll see my toothy grin
Now you leave this life of hell, but another one begins...
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS x 2
14. Last Day
15. Traumatised
HARMONY
I can't believe what I can see
A human? An alien? Something in between?
Strapped down screams, a white room red
Ripping flesh, her final breath
Chaos, fear, transfixed in place
Emerging form now taking shape
Trapped inside this deadly space
Death is here...
Is this a force of nature?
Can I relate to it for...
I need your mind to guide me
I need your strength inside me
How could I be so blind?
Fear is sending me blind
I can't breathe inside
An infant's mind but so much more
Is reaching out to all
Horror, hatred, deep in shock
All thoughts are known to me
Can't comprehend what I've done wrong
Death I fear...
This is no force of nature
I can relate to it for...
I want your mind to guide me
I want your strength inside me
How can fear be kind?
SOLOs: Tim
HARMONY
SOLO: Tim
BRIDGE:
Join with me and you will see the key to human destiny
Release the pain and suffering, transforming bland society
Evolving form, evolving mind, I'll show you what you're meant to be
Beyond the realm of stagnant life, I offer you infinity!
Dripping blood the only sound
Silent stares from all around
Rising up the creature smiles
Its purpose realised
Reach within unknowing minds
Steal knowledge, strength, all life it finds
The final human chapter told
Now death is here!
There is contempt of nature
There's no relation here, 'cos...
I have your mind to guide me
And I have your strength inside me
Traumatised...
I have your minds inside me
Leaving human life behind me
You're traumatised....
