1. Warhorse
Facing many conflicts
As your dreams go screaming by
Feelings they mean nothing
This is the last time they will try
Charge the things that threaten
But don't you make a sound
Don't you Hide Don't run away
But head for higher ground
Chorus:
Look through screaming eyes
And yours is not to care
Look through screaming eyes
You'll find it everywhere
Look who's screaming now
The battles in your mind
Look who's screaming now
A warhorse you'll find
Anger behind every stone
Is something you will find
They lie around like casualties
But are nothing of the kind
Searching through your no mans land
For something someone said
But your outflanked by hatred
Like battalions of the dead
Chorus:
Look through screaming eyes
And yours is not to care
Look through screaming eyes
You'll find it everywhere
Look who's screaming now
The battles in your mind
Look who's screaming now
A warhorse you'll find
Warhorse, you're losing ground
Firing round after round
Now for cover you must head
Lay down your guns and count the dead
You sense your demise now
A feeling you can't shake
You have lost your sanity
And that's the last thing they can take
Surrounded by your enemies
It's no time to be brave
Your pride it sinks into the ground
Like the white flag that you wave
Chorus:
Look through screaming eyes
And yours is not to care
Look through screaming eyes
You'll find it everywhere
Look who's screaming now
The battles in your mind
Look who's screaming now
A warhorse you'll find
2. Take a Look
Am I supposed to feel this way?
Will it ever end or is this all I get today?
Can I release my pain?
You tell me that I'm lost
and that my words are in vain
A simple buzz to stop my thoughts
Stuffing things inside my brain
You could say I got nothing to lose
But it's more like I got nothing to gain
Society, it's not for me
Others agree so I can't be wrong
Do you remember how it used to be
Or has it just benn too long?
Everywhere I go now everyone laughs at me
I found something to help me through
Something you could never see
I like playing rock-n-roll
But you say I'm wastin' life away
Don't ask my opinion because
I'm still trying to figure out yesterday
Chorus:
Define the world and bring it to me
Will I understand?
Is it plain to see?
If I tried, tell me what could I be?
Just all tied up now
but certainly not free
Can you remember?
Tell me where have you been?
I don't wanna hear your problems
I got my own
I don't wanna be your trademark
Just left alone
I don't wanna be your suspect
I don't wanna be your fool
I don't wanna listen to anything
Especially not your rules
You overlook the thing I say
you stare blankly at the things I do
I got something I believe in baby
That's more than I can say for you
I know what I want, yeah
I know how I can help my friend
I think I'll take this world we live in
And leave it behind
3. The Peace Song
4. Utopia of Daze
Can you believe in fascination?
There's no wars, no assassinations
There's no one hurt, no new disease
And no one innocent on their knees
A shroud of peace spreads around
And no one burned a single building down
No one O.D.'ed or died in vain
You're telling me that I'm insane
Yeah, you!
Chorus:
You're a victim of evil days
Gone insane now better change your ways
What a world, now you slip away
The war is gone and hatred's hidden
There's no more fights, and peace the religion
But those who killed and hurt I doubt knew
That heaven is hell without you
Yeah, you!
Chorus:
You're a victim of evil days
Gone insane now better change your ways
What a world, now you slip away
5. Standing on the Sun
A planet filled with unbroken walls
A journey through its gothic halls
Of the dark below they must beware
Leaving sinners in pleading prayer
The masses fall. No faith believed
No one to mourn those they've deceived
The wicked watch. The shroud appear
Their own screams is all they hear
No light now. Only dark
And God won't be your guide
With blood, their graves are marked
The winds of death they ride
Rider and horse come down
This is their final day
They're spreading death all around
And watch your world decay
Lake of fire soon will show
The seven angels trumpets blow
And to their final trial he leads
Hoping that their name he reads
To the melting earth now they will cling
The funerary bells will ring
The evil one he does not call
Watch the one great citiy fall
6. Unclean Spirit
Tell me do you feel me underneath the ground?
Tell me why you take me?
Salvation won't be found
I'm just a thought now covering you with sin
When will you release me?
That's when life begins
Can you guess my name now?
You hear it everyday
Yes, I think it's funny
It's just a game I play
You are no expense to me
This is how I feel
In my world this is gone
In yours it is so real
An unholy blanket over you I lay
Don't be angry because you made it this way
You have lots of time now
Come spend it with me
Because I'm a macabre controller for eternity
Yeah!
No one lives forever
Your life it starts to fade
You lived the way I taught you
No decision to be made
Your prayers now mean nothing
Your sins you're spending fast
Enjoy the air around you
The breath you draw is your last
All right!
You know I love you
And now you're going down
Love's disappearing
When evil comes around
But for now don't worry
For I have others to call
I'll get back in touch, yeah,
When it's your turn to fall
7. Devil in Drag
I see beyond your painted face
The pleasures of life you let me taste
Somehow my pain you must enjoy
You played with love
I was your toy
Empty inside I let you in
That evil smile shows once again
In search of sympathy you cried
I know who's behind those eyes you hide
Chorus:
You've got a soul of glass
Through you I see
You're the devil in drag
You wasted me
Better look behind you
'cause she'll be there
You'll love her body
You'll love her hair
You awake to darkness
And you're lonely now
As you sit there wondering
Why she took your soul somehow, yeah
Into the depths of sorrow
Departing steps she'll take
And you begin to realize
Her love for you was fake
She's a mystic lady
You cannot be saved
That evil woman's gonna
Take you to your grave, yeah
Now I've lost more than just my pride
There is nothing left for me inside
Tell me was I right or was I wrong?
You evil witch
I'm glad you're gone
8. Eclipsed
9. Line in the Sand
Deafened by the thunder
Opening the ground
A thousand years of peace
Was never found
Blinded by the flashes
Darkness turns to light
Growing mushrooms burn forever bright
The smoke clears away
Silence throughout the land
What was once living lies in the sand
Now the hell is over
Mankind fights no more
That's because your life's dead over war
Chorus:
One by one they fly so high
Transparent souls they fill the sky
Now once and for all is it done
Or has Satans work just begun
Listen to me people why can't you see
The way we're living I call stupidity
Reality is a candle burning at both ends
Why can't all you people just be friends
Unity has vanished wiped out by hatreds hand
Divided by a line drawn in the sand
One by one commanders smile
The land you gave made human death worthwile
Now all return except those who died
Now it's death you have glorified
Happiness is winning and war is another crime
Spending their lives thousands at a time
Pain to you means nothing
And power means so much more
Victory flags are waved on bloodstained shore
10. Desolate Cemetery
Walking through this barren place
What thoughts do I conceive?
I'm wondering what it's like
When this wicked world we leave
There are graves with brand new tombstones
And others old and cracked
My body is the only one with soul intact
Chorus:
You're too late
You can't wait
It's your fate
You leave
You see
You're free
This question you must ask yourself
In whom do you believe?
Will God give eternal life
Or will your soul he leave?
Well, I've asked myself this question
And this is what I've found
Where are you goin', baby?
Six feet under ground.
Chorus:
You're too late
You can't wait
It's your fate
You leave
You see
You're free
