1. Sacrifice
Cross the land and watch the sky, darkness is the reason why,
The spark of life is taken away.
In the name of God the sun, They sacrifice their very souls,
To keep the Darkness away.
They never ask they never try, to understand or reason why,
They only know that someone must die.
Gathered at the temple steps, where so many bled to death,
before they hear the masses cry.
Sacrifice, why do we have to Sacrifice?
Somewhere in their evil minds, they must know it isnt right.
But no one ever dares to cry out.
Another day another soul, sacrificed to save us all,
Surely they can hear them shout.
Sacrifice, for God sake please dont sacrifice?
Sacrifice, give back our souls.
Its killing me to see them cry, watch them all slowly die,
unneccessary pain and death, can you tell me when will it end?
Sacrifice, for God sake please dont sacrifice, no,
Sacrifice, why do we have to sacrifice.
(Giuntini/Martin)
2. Dead Ringer
Midnight rising, and falling out of the sky,
Blind man crying, colours are running dry,
Fire water, burning from inside,
Cry's of laughter, coming up from the ground.
Worlds gone crazy, hanging on by a thread,
Liberated, from the seven deadly sins,
Tranquil eyes are, searching for a sign,
Waiting for the final veil to fall.
Look, see, the time is ever near.
Chorus When you hear the sirens sing, sweet deceiver,
The state of grace is at an end, it's a dead ringer.
Rediscover, the spirit inside your soul,
Lust and anger, emotions that make you cold,
Misbehaver, rotten to the core,
You can't make it better, if there's no God anymore.
Look, see, the time is ever near.
Symptoms of the human race,
Are dreams that we all try to chase,
We ask the reason why,
We can't just let it die.
When you hear the sirens sing, sweet deceiver,
The state of grace is at an end, it's a dead ringer.
(Giuntini/Martin)
3. Letters from the Dead
We breath the darkness and we dream of Evil and,
We fight the fear that's running through our veins.
We kill, to save ourselves and still we hate ourselves,
There must be someone else who guides our hands.
We make a circle, and we wake the spirits and,
We ask forgiveness from the underworld,
The words are spoken, it's too late, we can't ignore them,
Now, we know that Satan looks our way.
Once and for all it's started, Heaven and Earth have parted.
Chorus
World is crying, time is dying, Satan raises Hell,
Eyes are blinded, desecrated, senses serve you well,
Faith demanded, take for granted, Heaven at an end?
Someone's sending words of warning,
Letters from the dead.
We laugh, we disbelieve, we'll stand in darkness and,
we'll wish, we'd listened to the spirit world,
He stands, before us, smiling, turns toward us, reaching,
Out, he'll take away our very soul.
Turned upside down it's worthless, Heaven and Earth beneath us.
Chorus
(Giuntini/Martin)
4. Superstitious
It's been a long night, looking for an answer,
I was a fool, searching for freedom,
Think I've been dealing, with the Devil's disciple,
Now I don't know, what's fact or fiction.
I don't know what's going on
Chorus Well I'm not superstitious,
But there's something that bothers me,
It's getting serious,
I think she's got a hold on me,
I can't sleep for thinking about her,
The world's so cold, now that's it's over.
I don't know what's going on
Well I'm not superstitious,
but there's something that bothers me,
It's getting serious,
I think she's got a hold on me.
(Giuntini/Martin)
5. Resurrection Day
The darkness that surrounds us, will soon turn into light,
The spirits that may greet us, will guide us through the night.
Waiting in the wings, disciples of the times,
Waiting on your every single word,
You know they will turn, turn, turn,
The memories they will burn, burn, burn.
Chorus
Resurrection day, it's the day when your soul fights back,
Resurrection day, it's the day when there's no turning back.
Stand up to the nightmare, crucify your doubt,
Open up your eyes and lead the way,
Then we will turn, turn, turn,
The memories we'll burn, burn, burn.
Chorus

7. Spiteful Ghosts (Instr.)
8. Cyberchrist
Once there were mountains,
Once there was rain,
Once there were people,
Once had a brain,
Once there was kindness,
Once there was good,
Now there is nothing where something once stood.
Gone are the flowers,
Gone are the trees,
Gone are the animals, birds and the bees,
Gone is the laughter,
You shouldn't laugh,
And I shouldn't stand here, right in his path.
Chorus
Cyber Christ, Cyber Christ,
He thinks he's good, he thinks he's right,
Cyber Christ, Cyber Christ
He thinks he's God, controlling life,
Cyber Christ oh Cyber Christ.
Inside computers,
Inside machines,
Inside where everything's sterile and clean,
No one can touch him,
He can't be killed,
Humans are useless who's blood can be spilled.
No one to fight him,
Mankind has gone,
Cyber Christ left there all on his own,
Puts back the mountains,
Birds and the trees,
All there is left is Cyber Space dreams.
(Giuntini/Martin)
9. Shadowlands
Let yourself get lost within the shadowlands
Find yourself a shelter from the rain
Some dont make it out from in the shadowlands
Never known a world in so much pain
Through the cold and empty streets
Full of broken glass
Where your heart will miss a beat
It happened so fast
Here among the fires we talk of loneliness
That’s colder than the frozen winters kiss
Just a sleepless night away, from a strangers touch
In a world that everyday, can hurt you so much
so why is everybody looking away
from the shadowlands
there’s only heartache in the shadowlands
is there no way out
Demolition rocks the ground beneath our feet
Tearing up the only life we know
No one hears you when you cry
No one dries the tears
Still the world has lived a lie
For so many years
So why is everybody looking away
From the shadowlands
there’s only heartache in the shadowlands
no second chance
shadowlands
shadowlands
(Giuntini/Bowyer)
10. Saved by Love
On the street there’s a shadow, of a broken man
There’s a child and a baby,with outstretched hands
You need no lights to guide you
Just the light of your heart
There’s years of hurt inside us
And fear for a world thats falling apart
Praying , we search these open skies
The world cries on
Heaven seems further from our eyes
It’s been too long
when the rain is falling
hold me close, don’t want you to see me cry
I hear your heartbeat calling
Saved by love
Safe in your arms to-night
Going through the motions, never touching ground
In the past we see our reflection,
Cry a tear for a world that we never found.
And somewhere, abandoned children die
The world cries on
Oh, why are we forever asking why
It’s been too long
(Giuntini/Bowyer)
11. Too Much too Love
Too much, too late, no good, it’s all over,
So long, goodbye, don’t wait now,
That’s me, I’m gone, no more, I don’t want her,
She’s bad, too bad, I loved her so.
She cries, I scream, we fight a real bruiser,
She bites, I bleed, can’t stand it,
That’s me, I’m gone, no more, I don’t want her,
She’s bad, too bad, I loved her so.
I know the sweetness of her touch,
Seen the Evil in her eyes,
Her love hurts much too much,
Too much too late.
I stay, she’s cool, but soon it starts over,
I go, she gets, kiss crazy,
That’s me, I’m gone, no more, I don’t want her,
She’s bad, too bad, I loved her so.
Chorus
Too much, too late, no good, it’s all over,
So long, goodbye, don’t wait now,
That’s me, I’m gone, no more, I don’t want her,
She’s bad, too bad, I loved her so.
Chorus
(Giuntini/Martin)
12. Baghdad (Instr.)
13. The Evil that you do
You sigh, because you can’t believe that you’re still living.
You cry, and sure enough the tears are really falling.
Why can I see your face, why torment me in this way.
You tried to cover up the things that you once did.
You lied, but after all that’s all you ever did.
Why keep the pain alive? Lies burned into your mind.
You’re so extreme, you feel no shame,
it took so long to see the truth.
My life and soul, you crushed hem all,
With the evil that you do.
You’ll die, and all that went before you will be waiting.
And I won’t be satisfied until you’re screming.
Why keep the pain alive, why torment me in this way?
You’re so extreme, you feel no shame,
You slowly choked the love inside.
My life and soul, you crushed them all.
You turn the truth into a lie.
The chill of fear, means you are near.
It’s the evil that you do.
Oh, It’s Evil.
(Giuntini/Martin)
14. Reactor
There is no greater power, the future’s yours and mine
Another man-made wilderness, across the final line
We’re giving truth no quarter, and who cares what they say
It seems to be a fair exchange, tomorrow for today
Once more we play with fire
Once more the damage done
The future’s burning like the sun
Reactor, reactor,
What have we done,
Reactor
We hear the future crying, why do we not reply
We see our children dying, under a red atomic sky
Too late for turning back now, too late to count the cost
Too late the race, already lost
Reactor, reactor,
What have we done, reactor
It’s not the way it’s meant to be
Reactor
A real life science fiction, we’ve put aside our fears
But buried deep beneath our feet, it lasts a thousand year
Once more we play with fire
Once more the damage done
The future’s burning like the sun
Reactor, reactor,
What have we done, reactor
It’s not the way it’s meant to be
Reactor
(Giuntini/Bowyer)
15. Satan Rising
There’s no love in a promise that you can’t keep,
There’s no dream can’t be broken in your sleep,
No road too long that can’t be run,
If you chase the moon you won’t find the sun.
And I could never change your mind,
You are dying, for your time is done.
When the Devil comes for you,
There will be no warning just out of the blue,
He will stand before you, and he may smile,
And then you will know it’s the end of your time,
Feel the earth move beneath your feet, that’s Satan rising,
Nothing burns like the flames of Hell, when you’re dying.
You gotta live your life for today,
Cause it aint worth crying over things that I’ve been,
No road too long that aint been run,
When you chase the moon you won’t find the sun.
You will never change the lies,
Though you keep trying, now your time is done.
Feel the earth move beneath your feet that’s Satan rising,
Nothing burns like the flames of Hell, when you’re dying.
Out of the blue, When the Devil comes for you,
There will be no warning, just out of the blue,
What can I do, He will stand before you and he may smile,
And then you will know it’s the end of your time,
Satan rising, Feel the earth move beneath your feet that’s Satan rising,
Time for dying, Nothing burns like the flames of Hell when you’re dying.
Satan rising, When the Devil comes for you,
There will be no warning just out of the blue,
What can I do, He will stand before you and he may smile,
And then you will know it’s the end of your time.
Satan rising, Feel the earth move beneath your feet that’s Satan rising.
Time for Dying, Nothing burns like the flames of Hell When you’re dying.
Satan’s rising.
(Giuntini/Martin)
