1. Deflagration
You take away our right to guard
Everything that we have fought for
And in the house of lies you built
You cause our great nation to wilt
You let all the killers roam free
Instead of putting them down
Leaving us without justice
And in these times we must exterminate
CHORUS:
We are in the right
You the wrong
For this battle
The lines are drawn
Hanging from the gallows of our forefathers
Built before your time of deception
Our soldiers have fought for our freedom
Despite your definitive hand of injustice
CHORUS:
We are in the right
You the wrong
For this battle
The lines are drawn
2. Alternate Reality
A Teenage traveler
Through the doors
Of space and time
Soulful and vigilant
The savior of mankind
Alternate reality
Trapped for all eternity
Alternate reality
All that you will ever see
Now and forevermore
Here she will always stay
Unless there is a door
Back to her own world
Supercharged projection
The chance to say goodbye
The hollow image fades
Leaving her to live a lie
Helpless, the doctor
Knows that he’s too late
Gaining a new companion
Since Rose has sealed her fate
Particles from the void
From rifts torn in space
Her selfless sacrifice
To save the human race
To the bleakness of hell
The mechanized warriors
Without their earthen hands
The open void claiming
The spirits of the damned
Not among the living
Not among the dead
Now the girl was trapped
Far from the life that she had led
From the bay of misery
She signaled her demise
For the day she arrived
Was also the day she died
3. The Book of Lies
Nothingness
When darkness ruled within
Creation
A world born into sin
Tragedy
Humanity born again
Destruction
Apocalypse is the end
Will you return again
To place your hallowed self
On your mighty throne
Or was your death
Nothing more than
A giant fucking lie
People who live
And die on the word
Of your sacred text
People who live
To curse the world
To a life of damnation
Fundamentalist pigs
The raping of humanity
And our children’s minds
The ultimate folly of mankind
Protect your children
And protect your beliefs
For these bloody heathens
Are the scourge of mankind
Mind Control
They tell you what to know
Blasphemy
See their lies unfold
Inquisition
Thou shalt fit the mold
Hypocrisy
Repent to save your soul
You rose from your grave
Now millions are enslaved
Yet has anyone been saved
The resurrection was
Nothing more than
A giant fucking lie
4. Operation: Sandstorm
Across the land
And over the sea
The tragedy
Is plain to see
Fire falls from the sky
And rips through the streets
As they wage war
Against themselves
CHORUS:
People of the sand
Who don’t understand
Why we lend them
A helping hand
From the sky
Our troops emerged
Slain the beast
And freed the word
And there we must stay
For if ever comes a day
When we turn and run away
We must turn their land to glass
CHORUS:
People of the sand
Who don’t understand
Why we lend them
A helping hand
But now here at home
We stand divided
Leaders and their people
No longer united
They don’t understand the west
Why we put them to the test
And we shall not rest
Until all the terrorists are blown to hell
CHORUS:
People of the sand
Who don’t understand
Why we lend them
A helping hand
5. The Death Chamber
On the morning of the 12th
On his way to work
He finds the building missing
And in its place, a chamber
Inside are the echoes of death
And the sounds of men working
He sees nothing
But a pit of despair
CHORUS:
In the chamber
The hopeless man approached
Leaving behind
All that he had known
They took away
His livelihood and health
So as a final effort
He enters the pitch black depths
He enters, yet sees nothing
Once inside, he quickly plummets
A fathom deep
He begins to hear
Whispers from the shadows
In the darkness he sees
Thousands of lost souls
Cowering in fear
CHORUS:
In the chamber
The hopeless man approached
Leaving behind
All that he had known
They took away
His livelihood and health
So as a final effort
He enters the pitch black depths
Outside the walls
He sees a distant figure
It draws nearer
Revealing the face of his wife
He calls out to her
But she merely sobs
He turns around to find
A scythe-bearing shadow
The darkens his vision
CHORUS:
In the chamber
The hopeless man approached
Leaving behind
All that he had known
They took away
His livelihood and health
So as a final effort
He enters the pitch black depths
6. Love's Betrayal
After years of silence
The nemesis had returned to fight
She appeared one day
Not knowing of her plight
Across the world
We came together
And now
She’s lost to me forever
We traveled
With our allies
We bonded
Through battle
It got harder
Every day
My life
I owed to her
On that fateful day
Her mind slipped farther away
She couldn’t stay
In my life that way
My sword flew
Out of my hand
There lay the mistress of death
Quivering, she took her last breath
So it was I
Who had finally ended her
And in the darkest hour
I am alone, again
Across the world
We came together
And now
She’s lost to me forever
7. The Dark Tower
This menace
Outside the gates
Calls me forth
Unleashes my hate
The dark lord
Lifted from his throne
Doth fall in battle
As does his tower of stone
Chorus:
From the tower
The dark lord
Shall emerge
Bringing torture and pain to me
For his golden circle
From his black grasp
Falls from his hand
Away for ever
Into the fires
It must be cast
Ending the terror
Of his own master’s past
Chorus:
From the tower
The dark lord
Shall emerge
Harken to the warrior’s bane!
In Mordor
Dark armies
Swarm from
The black gate
The ring
Into the fire
Causes legions
To be vanquished
Though not until the final battle
When a dead man rises
And smites the fallen one
Will evil be gone forever
Chorus:
From the tower
The dark lord
Shall emerge
Bringing torture and pain to me
Chorus:
From the tower
The dark lord
Shall emerge
Harken to the warrior’s bane!
8. Becoming
A watcher
Sent to oversee
The command of
A slayer
Then a rogue
Who hunts demons
Alone in the streets
Of the city of angels
CHORUS:
From prim and proper
To dark and foreboding
The watcher became
A powerful wizard
He steals the vampire’s child
In return, his throat slit
Full of self hatred
He turns to the enemy
CHORUS:
From prim and proper
To dark and foreboding
The watcher became
A powerful wizard
He decapitates his woman
Once slain by the beast
So that she may not rise again
Now he turns to another
He shoots his own father
To protect his new lover
But he cannot save her
From the grasp of the blue warrior
He fights until the end
When by a sorcerer’s hand
He meets his pointed end
Though he has his chance
To say goodbye
And not fade away
CHORUS:
From prim and proper
To dark and foreboding
The watcher became
A powerful wizard
9. Pulled Beneath the Surface
Can’t wipe away
The salty water
From my eyes
Can’t wash away
The sounds of my
Distant cries
CHORUS:
Pulled beneath the surface
Can’t keep my head up
My body is ready to quit
Just want to give up
My spirit sank with it
The darkness
Is quickly closing in
No time left
To repent for my sins
CHORUS:
Pulled beneath the surface
Can’t keep my head up
My body is ready to quit
Just want to give up
My spirit sank with it
Falling down
Beneath the waves
Now your soul
My body craves
The light above
Slowly fades away
Into the murky depths
I now go to stay
CHORUS:
Pulled beneath the surface
Can’t keep my head up
My body is ready to quit
Just want to give up
My spirit sank with it
Falling down
Beneath the waves
Now your soul
My body craves
10. Progressive Hindsight
My life
It has only been
A chasm
For me to cross
At its deepest point
The fallen are completely lost
And in this time
I try to think
About all that passed
In this life I led
It came with time
To catch the meaning of life
Long after
My time of birth
I came
To realize
One should only believe
What he can see
With his own eyes
And in this time
I try to think
About all that passed
In this life I led
It came with time
To catch the meaning of life
