1. Eyes Of Denial
Cities ablaze as we race
Through a concrete maze
Eyes ablaze
And die for a name
For heaven
In this deadly game
Tears can’t quench these sands
Why fight for peace in a holy land
Night has died and with it may I
Admist wars fair the heroes lie
The smell of death chills the air
I look for myself but I’m nowhere
Deliver me my prayer
Eyes of Denial
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
Lyrics: E. Rosvold
2. The System Remains
Secrets deception
Answers to give their own strength
As I look into your eyes questions need
Your silence and compromise
In my mind your voice towards me is wasted time
In your life there’s frustration
And we fight for your say
It’s your time for creation
As your time fades away
Is there a right and is there a reason
Do they lie and blind our own eyes
We strive for life a fight in the system
Only to find they supply our destiny
Twisted Ignorance
To those he lies for his own gain
Will you side away or be blinded to mine
Do we still fight trying to seek life in a better light
In our day
Here in our life is there a chance for this place in time
So we know
Threats trades negative power in rage
In a system that still remains
Knowing what could be
As we ask alone
Will we see as one
Do we still fight trying to seek life in a better light
Here in our life is there a chance for this place in time
Is there a reason for all the wrong
We need a change in vision
Needed for us to grow
Why I was chosen you are to blame
My mission here in power is my domain
You look for the answers seeking the chance
Are questions worth giving the system remains
Music: J. Tipton & T.Tipton
Lyrics: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
3. Voice Of Reason
I hear that voice calling once again
With visions of yesteryear and rivers of blood they shed
The times have changed but I’m steadfast
For a reign of terror the outcasts
Will be used against themselves through ignorance and lies
And so in hate my numbers grow and soon all the world will know
A twisted universal mind a mind like mine
Back to a time when I was young a father tells an only son
You are the chosen one
And as I grew so did my hate to cleanse the land became my fate
I became the gun
If the child grows knowing only what it’s told
Then the man can learn only as his history unfolds
The roots of hatred we don’t always see and so are left to grow
Fear begins in ones center and when allowed to flow
Will cast ripples upon still waters destroying all it knows
The disenfranchised will brutalize those who are not the same
The immigrants and infidels will be the pawn in their game
And they will use you against yourself through ignorance and lies
Hear that voice once again tie the borders
We need some order take a stand
So the politicians reach the white man
With loaded words a foot on the bible and rifle in their hands
Return to a time when you were young
When love lit your way
And all your troubles amounted to none
But who could who could say
But still do we really ever understand how we can love the child
But crucify the man
And do we ever really see that
"I could have been him and he could have been me"
Remember a time when you were young
When love cradled the day
And you did not know the difference between right and wrong
So who led who led the way
Now will you be the voice of reason when there’s none
Who will who will sing it’s song
I will
Music: J. Tipton & T. Tipton
Lyrics: E. Rosvold
4. Metamorphosis I - Descent
Deep underground it lies hidden and waits
A demon seed man or beast a tragic fate
A dark secret of one thousand years
An experiment with life
It revealed a deeper fear mans eternal strife
Something went wrong so they hid the truth from it’s eyes
They starved it of knowledge bound it’s hands and fed it on lies
Deep in it’s mind thoughts are suspended in hate
A frozen tomb earth’s womb a dire state
Who am I what am I where am I
I cannot see I cannon feel I can’t believe this is not real
A dark secret hidden far underground buried and left to die
But time revealed a deeper fear it was still alive
5. Metamorphosis II - Awaken
The creature stirs and slowly lifts its head
Not knowing whether it’s alive or dead
It sees it’s reflection but cannot believe
That the thing it sees before it has not one but two bodies
I can feel you we seem joined at the spine
So this is the reason they hid their crime
Are you just a part of me or can you hear my call
We must break free my silent twin and amaze them all
Rise
We can if we try leave this hell we share
To leave to break free to get somewhere
The deed is undone and the surface awaits
But she fell from his grasp as the earth began to quake
Deeper she fell until out of sight so he was left alone to face an eternal night
6. Metamorphosis III - Union
Lying on broken ground in the shadows never to be found
Her daylight’s night her world is cold
Her spirit’s lost a soul was sold
A memory from birth or was it just a dream
For in this world nothing is as it seems
His somber face passes by feigns disgrace and dares to try
Offering a word gets blank surprise
Offering herself he complies
He lifts her up she withers in his hands
No words spoken for eyes understand
He lifts her up to carry her away from the darkness to the light of day
Across the fields of souls forgot through mountains of pain
To the place paradise lost through the driving rain
He sheltered she but they did not know that she gave him life and so now he must go
7. Metamorphosis IV - Solace
8. Metamorphosis V - Ascent
Skin to skin upon the ocean they embrace and sink into the sea
Two became one but one had the notion
To live for their self and be free
Up from the depths a force it came the two that were one
Were now not the same one spread its wings and began to fly
One drifted away and began to die
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself and all that you are
Set your sights no matter how far
Become yourself
