1. Elite
Do you find yourself in the air
Flying away?
Do you think that you're awake
Just because you are?
Don't you know? How could you not understand?
Anyone with their ear to the ground
Knows we will not be bound
You can push but you can't beat us down
We deliver the sound
We were born and belong undergound
But we are all around
You can try but you can't own this crown
It was ours to be found
There is no way that you could know
Where Murphy goes
If you fall down off the road
You get back up again
Don't you know? How could you not understand?
Anyone with their ear to the ground
Knows we will not be bound
You can push but you can't beat us down
We deliver the sound
We were born and belong undergound
But we are all around
You can try but you can't own this crown
It was ours to be found
Did you doubt us from what came before?
Were you not a believer?
Here and now all your doubts are no more
This is redeemer
Anyone with their ear to the ground
Knows we will not be bound
You can push but you can't beat us down
We deliver the sound
We were born and belong undergound
But we are all around
You can try but you can't own this crown
It was ours to be found
Do you think that you are away?
2. Rise
Ever since I knew the hive
I've been accumulating misery
But I can see there are those who thrive
Bloom in the age of reality
Like legion they rise my doomsday device
Inside somewhere inside
A different light a different mind
Inside somewhere inside
I'd like to find a different kind of you
Nothing like you
And in the urban hell where I live
Jaded like strays in the street
White trash scattering their crib
No more than assholes with feet
And somewhere along the line it seems
That pimp became cool and punk mainstream
Like legion they rise my doomsday device
Inside somewhere inside
A different light a different mind
Inside somewhere inside
I'd like to find a different kind of you
Inside somewhere inside
A different light a different mind
Inside somewhere inside
I'd like to find a different kind of you
Inside somewhere inside
A different light a different mind
Inside somewhere inside
I'd like to find a different kind of you
Nothing like you
3. Fury *
And now I lay awake
My eyes unclosed
The firesnake superimposed
On our barren world tonight
Sumple but supreme
The dragon road
Evil and mean
I hear it soar not far above our world tonight
Now the immortal beast descends on me
Prepares to feast my enemy
is taunting me to fight
Sumple but supreme
The dragon road
Evil and mean
I hear it soar not far above our world tonight
Nocturnal light and thunder blasting from the sky
The beast is hunting for a prey that cannot die
But this is how it's always been since the dawn of time
And it will always be the dragon fury rhyme
An ancient beast that occupies the high above
A raging monster to be fearful of
Simple aggression purely spawned from mother earth
A true impression of the might of her
Now descend from above
Now descend from above
And now I lay awake
My eyes unclosed
The firesnake superimposed
On our barren world tonight
Sumple but supreme
The dragon road
Evil and mean
I hear it soar not far above our world tonight
Now descend from above
4. Ronin
Our disease everywhere
I wander I trail the song of your despair
Everywhere don't you breathe
Don't you dare
Only life do you care when it's gone?
Who's side are you on anyway?
Do you care?
Wanna stay ruled by your fear?
I don't know what it is that binds me to be like this
We can't ever be at peace
Carry on until we cease
Realize that I would could spare you if only I knew
How to be another man than the wanderer I am
Walk with me
Into the world that waits to be - here
Dawn the sea
Of the light that wants to be - now
Always ahead of the truth in us
Longing to be more than we are just because
Dawn is the promise
Of light in the darkness
Where we hide
Our disease everywhere
I wander I trail the song of your despair
Everywhere don't you breathe
Don't you dare
Only life do you care when it's gone?
Who's side are you on anyway?
Do you care?
Wanna stay ruled by your fear?
All the world is yours to keep
All you have to do is walk with me
Walk with me
Into the world that waits to be - here
Dawn the sea
Of the light that wants to be - now
Always ahead of the truth in us
Longing to be more than we are just because
Time holds a candle for each of us
Don't let it burn without meaning or a cause
Dawn is the promise
Of light in the darkness
Where we hide
All the world is yours to keep
All you have to do is walk with me
All the world is yours to keep
All you have to do is walk with me
5. Kaori Stomp *
You're so cool, love the style
eyes crazy, hair like a child
a single taste, and I smile
truly free, running wild
You!
Fly!
You got the style, ikasu
Ore wa oboete iru
When you are here, to hoka no
hitotachi ga mienaku
natteshimau
Unity in mind and in soul
dance for me
the sky is the stage
totally way out of control
and you can free
my mind from its cage
You're so cool, love the style
eyes crazy, hair like a child
a single taste, and I smile
truly free, running wild
You!
Fly!
You got the style, ikasu
Ore wa oboete iru
When you are here, to hoka no
hitotachi ga mienaku
natteshimau
6. Hate
It will never be ok
no, they
violated you
I have to make them pay
something primal, something strong
can't escape
and those who did you wrong
I hunt like prey
and it burns inside
the need to kill - I'm driven by
the crimson tide
meet my demon, meet my Hyde
I was the only one who knew
who held you
the system doesn't hear
nobody will listen to
I will see that they all know
what you felt
and I just hate them so
hate them, I hate
and it burns inside (I burn alive)
the need to kill - I'm driven by
the crimson tide (the falling sky)
meet my demon, meet my Hyde
for the sum of the hurt
and for the hauntings in the night
they suffer this fairly
as they lie in the dirt
begging, pleading for their lives
I cover them slowly
7. I Know The Reaper
It ain't always merry
to notice there's a line
Life is kinda scary
when you are left behind
All the loved ones lost to you
used to be somewhere
you know you will follow too
and you don't really care to just go nowhere
And so you keep them all alive
(In your head)
I tell you I know The Reaper
No light and no eternal life
(what I said)
I tell you I know The Reaper
sweetest of all lies
one of everlasting life
No one wants to die
but we do, so we hide
What you fail to realize
is there's no need to fear
you live on in the hearts and minds
of those who hold you dear, who are right here
All the others
They already know The Reaper
And so you keep yourself alive
(in your head)
You don't wanna know The Reaper
8. Seventeen
we come to help, we deliver a savior
this is your chance at salvation
we can not abide by the savage behavior
of those in command of your nation
We turn over the stone as we poke
and harvest the world in democracy's name
And even though our own is a joke
we need yours to be all the same
We are the ones who are setting you free
now you can share our beliefs and be just like we
We bring you out from under tyranny
and into our economy
when it's all too late you will discover
that wanting to help is a lie
this is what we do, we exploit under cover
swift like a thief in the night
And when you're free to consume and to use
we will service you with everything we produce
Take it or leave it but know this one truth
We market this freedom for you
Live free or die.
9. The Cavern of Lost Time *
10. Rogue World Asylum
She blooms like a flower
as she opens up and wallows in the light
but it looms like die mauer
as we search for what to follow in the night
and now they build another wall again
Come with me and you will see
our future in debris
first the sun and now the stars are fading
In a rogue world we are free
we have found the colored keys
but I know that we are still here waiting
waiting for her
She breathes death inside
as we keep trying to nurture her with lies
Now scorched her eyes are blind
Though given time she can recover if we try
but now they build another wall again
11. Through the Looking Glass
I can feel the sands of time
passing through the hourglass
and it shimmers in my eyes
as I linger in the wake
as eternity escapes
I begin to realize
We'll walk a thousand miles just to see for ourselves
Look behind our eyes
find our hell
And in the light of the sun we go
Through rain and raging snow
to find the things we do not know
I will go
never laying low
just tell me how to breathe
and I will make it so
You must know
that this is not for show
and if you are not wise (it will)
be your demise
Once I walked along a field
another nightmare in my mind
and beheld the fearful symmetry
Everything was beautiful
even things that were dead
and I surged with violent imagery
I walked a thousand miles just to see for myself
looked behind my eyes
and found my hell
We come to honor; to stand or die
to pass the hours of our lives
We burn the silence and all the lies
To fuel the fire inside our eyes
We all go!
Come to honor
stand or die
Fuel that fire in your eyes.
12. Oki Kumas Adventure
I look at the sky as my own
and the light always warms my bones
but the light brings the dark in shadow
and somewhere inside I know
It glows in the freezing night
the midwinter snow so white
in its celestial path in the sky
the great hubnester lies
I refuse to fail, to kneel or bow
No power in the 'verse can stop me now
Leading me towards the dawn of day
The stars above illuminate my way
My burden an awful load
my chest holds a heart of gold
in the stories a child is told
a legend amongst the old
it speaks of a legacy
one of me and my family
And I burn for their right to survive
to be alive
13. Reanimator (March of the Undead III)
Feel the life inside
a remnant of the tide
that raged within when you were still alive
never mind the cries
listen to the lies
while we�re waiting for the dead to rise
while we wait for them to rise
The world belongs to those
who stand out from the rows
of wayward and misguided silent souls
History is shamed
By people laying blame
To everyone who doesn�t feel the same
the sun fades beyond the water as we bring on the night
Sleep and fade away (tonight)
Inside these walls we wait (our lifeforce drains)
To change takes more than to remain
Therefore we lay - back - in the comfort of our chains
Sleep and fade away
inside these walls we wait
Wake up to the silence
after judgment day
14. Prelude to Empire *
15. Empire *
Only to deceive the memory
Begin the words and bleed reality
(Those without a name) Bow down before your Gods
(This is your empire) Close your eyes
(Those without a say) Bow down before your Gods
(This is your empire) Pay the price
Embraced without belief is anarchy
Unvoiced a distant grief that beckons me
(Those without a name) Bow down before your Gods
(This is your empire) Close your eyes
(Those without a say) Bow down before your Gods
(This is your empire) Pay the price
16. Ghost (Beneath the Surface) **
I stand still out in the rain
and look up at a broken sky
every raindrop looks the same
they fall without pretending through the night
But water isn't always what you see
another surface lies beneath
Can you see this isn't really me?
no this is someone else
I am just beneath the surface
In the...
And it hurries from my grasp
it runs between my fingers and my hands
it's like an echo from my past
a mere forgotten future in the sand
The water is the tide of night that comes
a shadow pulls me down beneath
Maybe this is who I used to be?
but this is someone else
I am just beneath the surface
In the...
In the pouring rain
I'm bleeding, I die
And I'm crying in pain
I'm bleeding, I die
In the pouring rain
I'm bleeding, I die
And it drives me insane
I'm bleeding, I die
