GUARDIANS OF MANKIND LYRICS
"Promo 04" (2004 Demo)
1. Heading for tomorrow
2. Shine on
3. Land of the free
4. Heart of the unicorn
5. The Silence
1. Heading for tomorrow
We are heading for tomorrow
But we don't know if we're near
Will we beg, steal and borrow
Will we ever lose the fear
Time has passed in the modern world
Where the madmen live and speak their word
Life in hand they deal with god
Put a trademark sign up on everyone
God bless the children, freedom is their word
Freedom freedom 'til they learn to obey
Here comes the liars, reason is their name
Reason, reason, play a silly game
Where will the children go, tomorrow
Is anybody there to claim
That he understands our human game
We can make a prophecy
Oh we can't say what is going to be
Where are we going, and what is our aim
Freedom, freedom, locked inside our brains
So many answers, reason is their name
Reason, reason, the question will remain
Where will the children go, tomorrow
2. Shine on
Shadows in the darkness, so far away from home
Standing all alone, no one there beside me
Shadows all around, so far away from home
I know I'm not alone, it seems we're lost in space and time
Shine on
Shine on now, and warm the tears
we shed through years
It's our prison, final reason for the freedom
and the glory that we feel
Are you for real
3. Land of the free
Somewhere in the desert of the void
Beyond the wall
We're the last survivors
We're the ones who'll never fall
Men inside the circle leave the night!
Darkness all around us
Not a single beam of light
All we have is our faith
Waiting for the fight
The time has come to break the outer wall
Grab your heart I'll show you the way
Hold you head up high
High above at the edge of the world
We're searching for glory and peace
When the time has come, you will see
Our return to the land of the free
Men inside the circle
Tell me what you feel and see
Delusions of reality
The mirror of your dreams
Hold you ground
And I'll show you the way
Now hold your head up high
High above at the edge of the world
We're searching for glory and peace
When the time has come, you will see
Our return to the land of the free
And when the cracks appear upon the wall
We know the moments here to see it fall
and as the sunlight appears again in our sky
no wall, no more, no more will darken our life
High above at the edge of the world
We're searching for glory and peace
When the time has come, you will see
Our return to the land of the free
4. Heart of the unicorn
Masters are relentless, torture is for slaves
Money, greed and power drives you to obey
Temperature is rising, shakes me to the core
Blood and domination, victims of the law
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I see the demons rising, beyond their sleeping void
Deep and down the masters take them to the light
Their piercing rays are blazing, obliterating fast
All dreams are torn to pieces, vaporized at last
When bloody angels spread their wings
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
I scan the dead horizon, illuminated curse
In squished imagination, catastrophies unfurl
Beyond the cataclysm, a dream of Unicorns
The purest heart in heaven, stabbed by poisoned thorns
Bloody angels, searing with fire-turn to dust
All through the millenniums, I've seen the writing on the wall
Into our oblivion, we are the riders on the storm
We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead
Beware - all dead
No light - all dead
No dreams - all dead
No life - you're dead
5. The Silence
When you're drowning,
when you're freezin',
when you're feeling cold
There's a light in the darkness
as the elder always told.
When the winter's coming closer
and the autumn's passing by,
Then the world will sink in slience
and I think we all should try.
Oh, I wanna live my life in a fairy tale
Where the end is always good and never sad.
Show me the way to another world
Where the sun is always shining in the end
And we fight back the tears, and we lose our fears,
Let the world remain in silence for a while
Sun in our minds in a world full of ice,
Let silence remain for a little while.
Somebody came and slammed the door,
took the feelin' away from our hearts.
And the horror took hold of a place
in our hearts filled with love.
What is left behind the ice,
behind the make up and the lies
Tell me what goes on inside our minds,
There is a hole in our sky,
getting bigger, growing wide
No more answer, but we hold the line
See and hear what we have done to us all,
we wanna be free more than anything,
Do you hear what I say to you?
We will make it through, the sun shall shine.
Hear the words we say and see the light of day
We never will be free until the sun is shining for us all
Carry on, carry on and make our dreams come true
And for a little while we stay together
Carry on, carry on, may all our lovin' stay
And for a little while we stay together, forever
Together, forever.
