1. Ride the Storm
Blinded with such fury
The clouds deceive the truth, judge and jury
Run for cover thinking of excuses
Wrath of God prevails upon useless
With a prayer, a power works through lucid nights
The payment of, the payment of,
The chance we took to ride the storm
Now! We! Ride the Storm!
Washing the blood from our hands
Now! We! Ride the Storm!
Forced by the blood on our hands
A tempest he delivers
Did he leave us here, all us sinners?
Hearts are free and clear among the children
Tell me why they suffer
Take us with them
With a prayer, a power works through lucid nights
The payment of, the payment of,
The chance we took to ride the storm
Now! We! Ride the Storm!
Washing the blood from our hands
Now! We! Ride the Storm!
Forced by the blood on our hands
Gods destructive path that leads mankind to destroy
What mother heart, has given us, to live in peace and joy
Now! We! Ride the Storm!
Washing the blood from our hands
Now! We! Ride the Storm!
Forced by the blood on our hands
2. No One Lives Forever
I'm entertained by the tales from shadows
Shot of life in a blinding light
Whispering through the ghostly windows
Telling me that there is no fright
They are the ghosts of warriors and kings
Who faded into darkness
Shadows know of forgotten words
And the treasures that the words reveal
Reveals the path to powers
All the wisdom is much too real
The kings tell of lost empires
The heroes talk of beasts they’ve slain
The warriors speak of battles
The memories still remain
No one, no one lives forever
Hope we’ll die together
Justify yourself before the end
No one, no one lives forever
Know we’ll die together
Justify yourself on judgement day before God
I wish to join them in the shadows
Hear the stories of the days gone by
Come alive each and every evening
Blacked shaped by a moon in the sky
Up from the ground
They come from the past
The phantoms’ lives are frightening
Shadows know of forgotten words
And the treasures that the words reveal
Reveals the path to powers
All the wisdom is much too real
The kings tell of lost empires
The heroes talk of beasts they’ve slain
The warriors speak of battles
The memories still remain
No one, no one lives forever
Hope we’ll die together
Justify yourself before the end
No one, no one lives forever
Know we’ll die together
Justify yourself on judgement day before God
3. Hold On
Lead us into this world so cold
The sign of the gods are within your own
Are you searching for impossible dreams?
Can you believe in what your eyes have been seeing?
(Seeing is believing)
Here in the now, you'll use what you're told
But never give up like the ones who've grown so old
If you're searching for impossible dreams
There is always someone made to believe that you
Hold on, you can hold on to the people you believe in
And never let them go
Hold on, hold on to the feelings that you're feeling
Hold on and never let them go
Have you ever felt the world just bring you down
Death comes by fast, that you'll never leave this ground
If you're searching for impossible dreams
That you'll never let the others deceive you
There is always someone made to believe that you
Hold on, you can hold on to the people you believe in
And never let them go
Hold on, hold on to the feelings that you're feeling
Hold on and never let them go
Have you ever felt the world just bring you down
Never leave the ground
Have you ever felt your dreams take you away
Take you away
Hold on, you can hold on to the people you believe in
And never let them go
Hold on, hold on to the feelings that you're feeling
Hold on and never let them go
4. Once Again
So nice to meet you
The pleasures mine
Not very often I'm feeling left behind
Don't speak the language
As many do, the sound take me far
Fighting the silenc of chosen sanctity
A coice I made alone
Am I mislead by the selfish blinding need
My dreams all meet again
Once Again
The star is burning
But the flame is gone
I'll take a new look as I'm hanging on
As the world keeps turning
The faith is gone
The crimes of my ages
Fighting the silenc of chosen sanctity
A coice I made alone
Am I mislead by the selfish blinding need
My dreams all meet again
Once Again
5. Master of My Destiny
The days of my indecision
Has brought me the ways of concern
Your message is building the walls around me
I'm trying my best not to fall
And trouble the people who care
Beside me, behind me they stand
The better the man, the better I am
Elevating my sense of control
Preparing my heart and my thoughts as I'm told
If I had the time to hear it all
I could fly away
Master of my destiny
Tell me how could I be bound to be
Master of my destiny
I'm not bound to feel what's set for me
Is it heaven or hell?
Many a time I have listened to you
Like the ones I let walk over me
The pressure keeps building up over and over
The times I've walked out that back door
With thoughts that I'll never return
What if I never return?
The lesser the man, the lesser I am
Elevating my sense of control
Preparing my heart and my thoughts as I'm told
If I had the time to hear it all
I could fly away
Master of my destiny
How could I be blind, so you can be
Master of my destiny
Am I bound to be what's set for me?
Master of my destiny
Master of my destiny
Is it heaven or hell?
All the years are not forgotten
His mind within is old
In a world that's far beyond his youth
Come the praises now, bestowed upon
The graces of a gentleman
Master of my destiny
Master of my destiny
Master of my destiny
Tell me how could I be bound to be
Master of my destiny
I'm not bound to feel what's set for me
Master of my destiny
Master of my destiny
Is is heaven or hell?
Heaven or hell?
6. Heroes
The ones who were lost
Have become all our heroes
For those who are left
Left here behind
Believing they'd return
The morning that they woke
Not knowing that it would be
The last time they had spoke
To the ones who left behind
The many tears we cried with them in mind
To the ones who left behind
So many tears were cried from all mankind
They cannot try and tell
Was the name of religion?
That drove them to do
What they have done
No one heard God's voice
Interpretations blind
Promised everlasting joy
Because of life sublime
To the ones who left behind
Many people stand with you today
To the ones who left behind
United we will stand and make them pay
The cowards could not face us eye to eye
A slow and painful death that they should die
Did it sooth their emptiness
And rid them of their pain
Will they try to take more lives?
All in their god's name
To the ones who left behind
Many people stand with you today
To the ones who left behind
United we will stand and make them pay
To the ones who left behind
Many people stand with you today
To the ones who left behind
United we will stand and make them pay
[Spoken:]
On September 11th, 2001, 3,047 people died during the terrorist attacks on New York, Washington DC and Pennsylvania.
More than 3,251 children lost a parent that day... and they say it was all in the name of their god.
7. Death Comes in Diguise
Are you the one to break me?
And did you come from nowhere?
Tell me how you'll take me
Will you take me elsewhere?
Do you think you're clever?
Sneaking up behind me
I believe you're evil
Do you think that I can see?
A thousand hearts that you have sewn
Covering your body head to toe
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Wears a mask that's enticing you
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Masquerading for you to view
She wreaks extinction
As she glides into a room
Well, there's no suspicion
As we're blinded to the gloom
And my hands are shaking
Dripping wet with apathy
Never looking over
She's come, she's after me
A thousand hearts that you have sewn
Covering your body head to toe
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Wears a mask that's enticing you
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Masquerading for you to view
[Instrumental: Ode to Joy]
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Wears a mask that's enticing you
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Masquerading for you to view
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Wears a mask that's enticing you
Death comes in disguise (and fades away)
Masquerading for you to view
8. Merry Minstrel
The minstrel sat upon the edge
Of the brightly lighted stage
Every member of the court was there
From the beggar to Arch-Mage
They crowded in to hear the fabled
Magic of the man
And whispered as they waited for him
To stand up and strike up the band
Donned in sacred Moses sleeves
And sporting a leprechaun hat
He struck a chord upon his flute
They all stood and thanked him for that
Play on you merry minstrel, fly high
He looked upon their haggard faces
Carved with pain and grief
And when he laughed "It's not so bad"
They stared at him in disbelief
He knew he was a happier man
Than they ever would be
He took their pain into himself
As he set their spirits free
Donned in sacred Moses sleeves
And sporting a leprechaun hat
He struck a chord upon his flute
They all stood and thanked him for that
Play on you merry minstrel, fly high
Fly high, fly high
Merry minstrel, dance and sing
Living in the lonely world of smiles that you bring
Merry minstrel, dance and sing
Living in the lonely world of smiles that you bring
Merry minstrel, dance and sing
Living in the lonely world of smiles that you bring
9. Spread Your Wings
[Clayton C. Cooper's Intro: "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"]
Only the child sleeps with a conscience that is clear
Closes his eyes, drifting away without a fear
The innocent mind, I envy all that's pure
Grace his young years, within him is the man
Was he chosen
Chose to be within my life
Chose to be here in my life
Spread your wings, little man
Grab the sun, the hopes and dreams
Of everyone lies in your arms
Spread your wings, little man
Embrace the love that sends you on your way
My promise to you is that I'll do the best I can
Protect you from harm, but there's only so much I can do
You'll be left without a weight upon your shoulders
Oh how I wish that I could save you from this cold world
Are we the chosen?
The chosen ones placed in your life
Chose to guide you through your life
Spread your wings, little man
Grab the sun, the hopes and dreams
Of everyone lies in your arms
Spread your wings, little man
Embrace the love that sends you on your way
Oh, every day the world seems new
When I take one look at you
A feeling comes from deep, it brings a smile
You know when I'm falling
Picks me up and takes it all away
Spread your wings, little man
Spread your wings, little man
Grab the sun, the hopes and dreams
Of everyone lies in your arms
Spread your wings, little man
Embrace the love that sends you on your way
Come on, spread your wings - Spread your wings, little man
All your hopes and dreams
Come on, spread your wings
All your hopes and dreams
Come on, spread your wings
Embrace the love that sends you on your way
10. Iron Hand
In the fields lush with gold
The sweat runneth over her body
Close her eyes as she wonders why she feels
Like she's rotting
She knows there's something better
He always slammed the door
And now the tears fall, they fall to the floor
He thinks he's something better
Than anyone can hate
Believes a man this could make
With an iron hand, he rules the land
A dark brutal fist that condemned her
The sands in time that rule the mind
How can I keep her safe, and alive
The legends tell of beloved sin
The altar of sacred hearts lost deep within
The sun will shine in her eyes
That's open wide, like a mirror
The strips are cut with leather
Deepens her wounds much more
The sadness so deep the tears never fall
Now forced to choose his future
Between the love and hate
He's still the man that's been holding her fate
With an iron hand, he rules the land
A dark brutal fist that condemned her
The sands in time that rule the mind
How can I keep her safe, and alive
Holy Father, I confess
For her love, which I profess
Holy Father, there's no sin
Without my throne, can I live?
If he were gone, and I would reign
No longer would we feel the pain
But how can I deceive the throne
That holds my flesh and bone
The tears rolling down her face
The blood is spilled from her body
There is a day that I will pray
That sends the hand embracing her his way
My thoughts cannot touch her, I fear for her life
The blood, the pain that's in his heart, I cannot tell a lie
With an iron hand, he rules the land
A dark brutal fist that condemned her
The sands in time that rule the mind
How can I keep her safe, and alive
With an iron hand, he rules the land
A dark brutal fist that condemned her
The sands in time that rule the mind
How can I keep her safe?
11. Heart Attack
A little closer, just look in my eyes
Start noticing all of the signs
Such deep affliction, you want to know why?
I'm changing face all of the time
You'd throw away all that's dear and needing
I've been through times like this before
Walk in a circle that sweats with meaning
I've hit the wall and the door
A new line I've found I'm piercing
The needle slips to the floor
The rush I feel gives me mercy
The lifeless vein flows no more
There's a light at the end of the tunnel
Draws me in close to its eye
Holding on to the signs of reflection
Whisper the words as I die
Of a heart attack
A tightness stretching my chest as you speak
The words seem to sound like a mess
Why did you think you could change what I am?
Powers you think you possess
Don't throw away all that's close and meaning
We've been through times like this before
The pressure builds as it reeks of needing
The hate you scream kills me more
A new line I've found I'm piercing
The needle slips to the floor
The rush I feel gives me mercy
The lifeless vein flows no more
There's a light at the end of the tunnel
Draws me in close to its eye
Holding on to the signs of reflection
Whisper the words as I die
Of a heart attack
Of a heart attack
[Instrumental: Can-Can]
There's a light at the end of the tunnel
Draws me in close to its eye
Holding on to the signs of reflection
Whisper the words as I die
There's a light at the end of the tunnel
Draws me in close to its eye
Holding on to the signs of reflection
Whisper the words as I die
Of a heart attack
Of a heart attack
12. Worlds Apart
Choices that we have made
All the roles we have played
Different worlds that we're passing through
Paths they twist and they turn
Every bridge that we've burned
Every door that's closed on us
You have to
Find your fascination
Are you holding back your fears?
Will you stop the masquerade?
Guide us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart we're living for day by day
Lead us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart, we'll stand alone in dismay
Memories of our youth
Tiny moments of truth
Crossroads we were dancing through
Moments that we have shared
No one would ever have cared
Binds us all in more ways than one
You have to
Find your fascination
Quit believing in your fears
Stop this senseless masquerade
Guide us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart we're living for day by day
Lead us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart, we'll stand alone in dismay
Nothing so pathetic
Than people full of hate
Go before a god as equals
And stand at heaven's gate
Are you one of those people
Whose thoughts they cannot hide
Judged by how you live each day
Standing side by side
Is there something in my words
That grabs you by the heart
We have to live together though
We're living worlds apart
Worlds apart
Worlds apart, guide us to the hands of fate
Guide us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart we're living for day by day
Lead us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart, we'll stand alone in dismay
So guide us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart we're living for day by day
Lead us to the hands of fate
Worlds apart, we'll stand alone in dismay
