1. Courage
You must be brave
In the hands of adversity
For those who have gone before
You must be more
Take pride in what you do
Let all the glory shine through
Courage
Is no easy way out
Integrity
Leads to righteousness
Conscience
Will be the final judge
You must be sincere
When the cards call for action
For those who'll never know
You must give all
Take pride in who you are
Let all the beauty shine through
Courage
Is no easy way out
Integrity
Leads to righteousness
Conscience
Will be the final judge
2. Among Flames
I watch the shadows gather up their shape
They don't surrender their mystery readily
I am not blind
I can see through the night
I will remain
Among flames
Among flames
Among flames
My resolve is forever unchanged
With a will of steel I will not be swayed
I am not blind
I can see through the lies
I will remain
Among flames
Among flames
Among flames
"Inspired in part by 'The Tomb Of Ligeia' by Edgar Allen Poe
3. Marble and Stone
Magic, a special spirit within her eyes
She's fire, a burning feast for my mind
Oh Desire, takes me into the night
Heart to Heart, We're One
Throughout my life I will be her man
Never to walk away
Throughout Eternity we will be
Strong as Marble and Stone
Lovers, more than the best of friends
Inspire, her smile does not end
Our love throughout all time transcends
Hand in Hand, We're One
Throughout my life I will be her man
Never to walk away
Throughout Eternity we will be
Strong as Marble and Stone
"Song written for and inspired by Sandra Anderson"
4. Shadows Born of Moonlight
5. Speak With Truth
There are those who listen, follow and believe
Not able to decide on their own
Led by the hand, their blind affliction grows
With no true convictions of their own
Mindless and apathetic, devoid of a soul
What do they say
Do the words remain the same
Silent and haunting
To them life is a game
Interpretation leads to shame
Only they remain unchanged
There are those who lie, lecture and condemn
No real knowledge, they can't comprehend
No truth in the meaning behind the message they send
With deceitful convictions they call their own
Cold and calculating, devoid of a soul

7. Eternal
Our love is a dream
With your eyes you tell me
We have just begun
You are all that I need
With my eyes I tell you
Beyond tomorrow we will be
Together
Time holds no more meaning
My heart know no such thing
You are what I need
Like a vision divine, we are eternal
Beyond tomorrow we will be
Forever free
Always
Our love is a dream
With your eyes you tell me
We have just begun
Time holds no more meaning
My heart know no such thing
You are what I need
You are all that I need
With my eyes I tell you
Beyond tomorrow we will be
"Song written for and inspired by Sandra Anderson"
8. The Legend
One by one they awaken
Their eyes clear of the setting sun
A singular vision to behold
Carved from a living stone
Creatures from the dawning of time
Arise to defend in the night
(The Legend)
The legend comes forth
With the birth of the moon
Calling them back to the night
One by one they take to the sky
Their wings cutting through the chill in the air
A breathtaking sight to behold
Riding time to fight, their Legacy
Their Destiny
(The Legend)
The legend comes forth
With the birth of the moon
Calling them back to the night
9. Out of the Darkness
Out of the darkness
I came for you
To make you mine
Now that you're with me
I know that I'll always fly free
Out of the night
You came to inspire me
Within your eyes I see
The light that guides me
As the ties that held my heart
Fast fell away
I began my journey
Into the safety of your love
My dream fulfilled
Now shared by your heart
Out of the darkness
I came for you
To make you mine
Now that you're with me
I know that I'll always fly free
Out of the night
You came to inspire me
Within your eyes I see
The light that guides me
"Song written for and inspired by Sandra Anderson"
10. Destiny
11. Awakened
Some say there are fortunes
To be won (I don't care)
I'll follow my heart and soul
To the end (To the end)
If I reach within
All the answers are there (Always there)
I know what is right
And what is wrong (It's all very clear)
Some say that their walls
Are built too high (Weak of will)
I tear them down
And march on through (To the other side)
I have returned
My vision is clear and my heart's much stronger
My will won't bend
As I raise my sword ever higher
I have the strength
To fight the demons and send them back now
There is no end
To the courage that I hold within me
I have returned
My vision is clear and my heart's much stronger now
Some say there are fortunes
To be won (I don't care)
I'll follow my heart and soul
To the end (To the end)
If I reach within
All the answers are there (Always there)
12. Nightfall
