1. Feast or Famine
When the seas rise and skies fall
Marsh lands turn to dust and blow away
When the air is parched, every breath poison
Eternal darkness covers all below
We thirst for days gone past
We hunger for life
We crave
Cover me with this earth
We can be one again
Cover me, let me rest
We will be one again
Richly feeding on the pleasures
That this world has given to all
Never ending resources
One day will end and so will we
We thirst for days gone past
We hunger for life
We crave
Protect her and her beauty
Lush lands we covet
Feast upon her awesome bounty
Before we drain these riches dry
We thirst for days gone past
We hunger for life
We crave
Cover me with this earth
We can be one again
Cover me, let me rest
We will be one again
When the seas rise and skies fall
Marsh lands turn to dust and blow away
When the air is parched, every breath poison
Eternal darkness covers all below
Protect her and her beauty
Lush lands we covet
Feast upon her awesome bounty
Before we drain these riches dry
2. The Mission (1943)
The mission set, there will be no return as the killers head into the night
They all must face the impossible climb, a sheer cliff 400 feet high
Caught captive in Mondracus it seems the enemy knows their plan
Back in control and on to Navarone, they leave behind a misinformed man
Six men with six days to change the tide
The guns of Navarone
Six men with six days, it may take their lives
The guns of Navarone
Mondracus burns in punishment for hiding out the killers five
On this night the silent one is a traitor and so she dies
The injured man drugged by Stolamine speaks of invasion on the southern side
The guns now left alone two men move inside and lock the massive door behind
Planting explosives all around the guns, a diversion from the real mother load
The containment room holding hundreds of shells, the elevator, and they explode
3. Vigilant
Through the canopy of this darkened world
I see my prey
Never seeing with my eye
Senses raging from this troubled world
I see his heart
Feeling only with my mind
I am the light in the darkened place
I stand alone
Standing ever strong and powerful
I stand alone
Vigilant
A demon of the night
One who never can be seen
A protector of the innocent
Never knowing love
There's no place for it in this heart
I am eternally alone
Time will stop and worlds will end
The vigilant will stand ever strong
4. Achilles
By the gods of war he was made
Never challenged by his prey
A demon, a warrior, a god
The keeper of his cause
The strongest of the strong
No matter the right or the wrong
As far as the eye can see
He will never concede
Born into war is all that he's known
The seeds of terror are what he has sown
A maiden has never seen into his heart
And for this passion his soul will depart
The blade of Achilles is blessed by the gods
A slave to no man, he fights for a cause
The strength of Achilles will render you cold
The might of Achilles shall never be sold
For the shores of Troy they set sail
When all before him failed
To avenge his cousin's life
A victim of the knife
Ten thousand fall that day
Leaving as they feign to sail away
They take it, a gift behind the gates
Soon will seal their fate
Achilles the brave that no man can kill
The arrow of fate across his heel
Will be the fall of Achilles this day
The glory of Troy now fades away
5. Tempest
Circling, churning, spinning, twriling in vertigo
No direction where you've been or where you'll go
Its roar is deafening, an angry sound that chills inside
Destruction follows in her wake, no one left alive
Tides rise beyond their limits, flooding on the shore
Creating waves larger than ever seen before
Winds crashing, bending, breaking everything in sight
Heaven help us just to make it through this night
Beware the tempest
Will there be an end in sight?
Beware the tempest
Will we survive this endless night?
Freezing winds blowing, bringing snow and ice along
Leaving lives and lands covered with its deadly song
Buried deep within the white is a world now past
Heaven help us find the few of us that will outlast
That will outlast
In the darkened stillness of the night, what do you hear?
In the quite stilness of the night, is someone there?
Circling, churning, spinning, twirling in vertigo
Destruction follows in her wake, no one left alive
Winds crashing, bending, breaking everything in sight
Heaven help us just to make it through this night
Beware the tempest
Will there ever be an end in sight?
Beware the tempest
Will we survive this endless night?
Will we survive this endless night?
Will there be an end in sight?
Is there no one left alive?
Was there no one to survive?
6. Legion Immortal
When the world is at its end and evil has its way
Who are the ones that will protect and keep what's gone astray?
Steadfast and vigilant holding true to all things past
Ever pressing onward as the ones who will outlast
They will ever stand alone through the test of time
When all else has faltered and broken all bloodlines
They are the ones who will be left but never left behind
Turn your gaze to the west and never look away
Say your prayers to the keepers of the watch every day
Vigilant and true
Will stand for you
Stay ever brave
This world you'll save
They will ever stand alone through the test of time
When all else has faltered and broken all bloodlines
They are the ones who will be left but never left behind
Turn your gaze to the west and never look away
Say your prayers to the keepers of the watch every day
Vigilant and true
Will stand for you
Stay ever brave
This world you'll save
They will ever stand alone through the test of time
They are the ones that will be left but never left behind
When the world is at its end and evil has its way
Who are the ones that will protect and keep what's gone astray?
Steadfast and vigilant holding true to all things past
Ever pressing onward as the ones who will outlast
They will ever stand alone through the test of time
When all else has faltered and broken all bloodlines
They are the ones who will be left but never left behind
Turn your gaze to the west and never look away
Say your prayers to the keepers of the watch every day
Vigilant and true
Will stand for you
Stay ever brave
This world you'll save
7. Battered and Bruised
Corruption and disease have swallowed this world, left us all to blame
Lust and its hateful consuming of dreams plays an evil game
From the day we tasted the fruit, the falling of mankind
Evil has begotten its way, has left all else behind
This knowledge makes us blind
Morality divine
We have become
Battered and bruised
We all are fallen
Battered and bruised
Eve the setting of sun
Leave nowhere to run
Time ticking in haste
Gone, what a waste
Stilness of the night now loud and absurd, corrupting every thought
Leaders of this world consumed in debate, what lessons can be taught?
8. Cold
Ivory skin, so porcelain smooth and cold to the touch
Eyes and lips as black as teh night lead me in to drain
You're so cold; cold as ice, you're so cold
Ice you feel, feel to the bone
Ice that burns, burns inside
The moves of a slithering ghost, perfect and slow
Evil beckons me stay, cannot break away
With one touch you are still
Lust for the touch and for the feel
Your body's heat is what she craves to keep her alive
Drains your warmth in her eyes out of your soul
9. Starlight's Fury
Time folds into time
Generations unending
Stars blink out of life as new ones are born
Worlds colliding in hatred
Will there be peace in this universe?
Can the questions of life be answered without time?
In a flash of a moment all things will change
In the blink of an eye, we hardly notice how they rearrange
Overflowed with emotions, sometimes control
The will of us all is so trong, it's hard to let it go, feel the flow, let it be so
That which is made in the heavens
Comes from violent reaction
Crashing, burning, crushing and breaking apart
Glowing with fire and fury
Eruptions fracture and start to burn
Leaving a brilliant planet that we see as a star
In a flash of a moment all things will change
In the blink of an eye, we hardly notice how they rearrange
Overflowed with emotions, sometimes control
The will of us all is so trong, it's hard to let it go, feel the flow, let it be so
Constantly under pressure
Gravity pulling and straining
This cause and effect brings forth the finest gems
What can be gained by this madness that has made us what we are this day?
The answer may lay inside man's universe within
In a flash of a moment all things will change
In the blink of an eye, we hardly notice how they rearrange
Overflowed with emotions, sometimes control
The will of us all is so trong, it's hard to let it go, feel the flow, let it be so
Burning on forever
Starlight's flicker and glow
Bringing light to us in the darkest of times
A thing of beauty and wonder
Giving direction and reference of time
Eternity held in its glow raining on us all
In a flash of a moment all things will change
In the blink of an eye, we hardly notice how they rearrange
Overflowed with emotions, sometimes control
The will of us all is so trong, it's hard to let it go, feel the flow, let it be so
10. The Harkening
Scan into view
A violent storm twisting and turning
Cold blood runs through every inch of your being
Crawling inside of you
Hide away from danger
Hide away from yourselves
Stay away from danger
Stay away from evil things
Prophecy warned of covering dark and impending doom
Raising the tide with gravity's force pushing and pulling apart
Where is this world?
Where are the cities drowned by oceans?
Where is this world?
Without man's legacy, how will we all carry on?
11. Precipice
On the edge of a dream, that's where you'll find me
The edge of a dream all seems so real
At the edge of the world is where you'll find yourself
Naked and alone as the day of your birth
Final page has turned, reality is no more
The nightmare has begun, this book will soon close
At the precipice edge, we stand alone
Hanging on by a thread, we stand alone
Nowhere else to be led, we stand alone
On the very edge, alone and empty
Reach for the edge, hold on with all your might
Regain control lost for so long
Take a hold of yourself, too far gone to be saved
Is there nowhere else you can run?
The game is over, you've lost
Left alone to count the cost
Leaning over, you see the edge
Falling down
On the edge of a dream, that's where you'll find me
The edge of a dream all seems so real
Darkness has come, it covers you
Hang onto the edge with all your might
Pull yourself up again before your hold is lost
Never too late to recover your dreams
On the edge of a dream, that's where you'll find me
The edge of a dream all seems so real
At the edge of the world is where you'll find yourself
Naked and alone as the day of your birth
Final page has turned, reality is no more
The nightmare has begun, this book will soon close
At the precipice edge, we stand alone
Hanging on by a thread, we stand alone
Nowhere else to be led, we stand alone
On the very edge, alone and empty
