Pouring fuel across the fire
Let the flesh evaporate I can hear it in their crazy voices They're opening the floodgates Shout loud that burning mantra With the confidence of fools Let it be me Who sets you free! Exile! You show no mercy You're living in a mindless state Exile! You've crossed the line this time You've thrown it all away And you can drag this new pariah down Till the lifeless body breaks I can see it in their angry faces They're opening the floodgates Shout loud that burning mantra With the unity of fear Let it be me Who sets you free! Exile! You show no mercy You're living in a mindless state Exile! You've crossed the line this time You've thrown it all away Exile! You show no mercy You're living in a mindless state Exile! You've crossed the line this time You've thrown it all away |

An Angel falls, so fragile and exposed
Soon lies crushed and wasted - Too delicate to hold A soulful melody innocent and pure Rises to the sky and is lost for ever more As guilt rains down And scars the faith of man It flows into the ground We will never wipe the bloodstains from our hands A failing heart, vulnerable and weak Waiting for the moment to beat the final beat Surely there is someone who'll reach out Surely there is someone who'll reach out |

I am the painted man
With a frown on my face And a language you don't understand A wild refugee That is all you people can see I am the painted man With a smile on my lips And a living tattoo on my hand That's no guarantee Of the truth you people can see Why - With poison so strong in our hearts And the world torn apart Why - when our actions bring nothing but pain Can't you see that we're painted the same? I am the painted man With bile in my veins From a dark and sinister plan Blind and deceived That is all you people believe I am the painted man No thought for the world I was here when the nightmare began Wrongly conceived That is all you people believe Why - With poison so strong in our hearts And the world torn apart Why - when our actions bring nothing but pain Can't you see that we're painted the same? Come down from your ivory towers Corruption devours us all Come down from your ivory towers The hunger devours us all |

There's a spectre at the feast
Feeding on my soul and drinking my hopes away There's a wind from the east My heart grows cold, my rainbows turn to grey There's a spectre at the feast Tearing me up and tossing my bones to the wolves On the brink of defeat We're moving the goals and changing the rules Hey don't fall asleep Don't close your eyes and drift away to some foreign land I know who you are - My fate is in your hands There's a spectre at the feast Panic has a face; it's looking at me right now There's the shadow of defeat Got to rise and bring those demons down Hey don't fall asleep Don't close your eyes and drift away to some foreign land I know who you are - My fate is in your hands Are they so pure, that they should judge me everyday? Am I so low in estimation, that none will hear a word I say? Are they so sure, the human race should turn away? In every home to be unwelcome, and none will hear a word I say! This brave new world has fallen and decayed Are there no heroes just men with feet of clay? Are they so weak, that they despise me everyday? A painful demonstration that none will hear a word I say! This brave new world has fallen and decayed Are there no heroes just men with feet of clay? Are you so pure? This brave new world has fallen and decayed Are there no heroes just men with feet of clay? |

Just a simple thought, cast into the light
Leads to such destruction - never ending night In my blind obsession to avoid the fools I've seen How could I not recognize the fool was always me? As guilt rains down And scars the faith of man It flows into the ground I will never wipe the bloodstains from my hands This seed of hate was carried in my soul Waiting for the moment when it could take control Surely there is someone who'll reach out Surely there is someone who'll reach out A failing heart, vulnerable and weak Waiting for the moment to beat the final beat As guilt rains down And scars the faith of man It flows into the ground I will never wipe the bloodstains from my hands Is there someone who'll reach out? Surely there is someone who'll reach out |

Knowing what I know
I'm never free to come and go But when I try to open doors I burn when daylight hits the floor Playing the skin game Breathing the blue flame Playing the skin game In sight, insane Knowing what I know I've been looking for a space to grow And maybe I can set you free Yes maybe I can set you free Playing the skin game Breathing the blue flame Playing the skin game In sight, insane I'm content to live in the vacuum I have made A comfortable existence on my own The problems of the world are there for others to debate I prefer to face my days alone! Kneeling down before I sleep Never said a prayer that I believed One day you'll understand Why have I become this way? Maybe it's another quirk of fate Yielding to my DNA Try to live on my own Reborn once more as a whisper on the telephone Unafraid of it all Every thought, every dream, I will call! I will call! Now I'm living alone And all I am is a whisper on the telephone Making sense of it all Every thought, every dream, I will call! I will call! |

Blue fire, spreading across
From my finger tips - a powerful chaos Ice cold, consuming all Unstoppable advancing wall of Radiance, marching forth For the final throws of a world war Bow down before the truth I hear the cry - too late to stop you Burn - Like a moth to the flame We'll burn - As the fire calls us by name Burn - Like a moth to the flame Blue fire, spreading across From the farthest shore - the final cost Go back to the other place Another side of a well known face Blinding light, the world falls down I will draw you in to the slightest sound Reach out, follow your heart To the end of time - You will not be the last Burn - Like a moth to the flame We'll burn - As the fire calls us by name Burn - Like a moth to the flame Blue fire, a creeping curse There is nowhere safe in the universe Too late, you are hypnotised By the gentle waves, as they dive and rise One strike of a single match And the human race is reduced to ash Bow down before the truth I hear the cry - too late to stop you Burn - Like a moth to the flame We'll burn - As the fire calls us by name Burn - Like a moth to the flame We'll burn - As the fire calls us by name |

A wave that rushes headlong through the darkness
An eternal flood that violates our minds A mighty river thirsty for our sanity A waterfall that crashes down upon mankind The foam that smashes deep into the shoreline A tidal force that's pumping through our veins A wordless voice that echoes in our beating hearts Driving every living soul insane There's nowhere to hide now There's nowhere to run A skyline that is changed beyond redemption The planet with it's back against the wall Man was overflowing with self confidence The time was overdue that he would take the fall There's nowhere to hide now Nowhere to run There's nowhere to hide now Nowhere to run |

We've sown the seeds now
Don't know where they may fall Just lonely ghost towns Empty churches, empty town halls We've travelled far now And so into the wilderness we crawl I'm floating through the debris Of reference books and catalogues Climbing over sun baked bones Of Kings and Queens and Demigods You can take away my crown But you'll never bring my spirit down I won't give in Try to push me off the rope I will float down on the wings of hope I won't give in I wander through the dead lands Computer chips and stereos Powerless technology Instruction books and videos You can take away my crown But you'll never bring my spirit down I won't give in Try to push me off the rope I will float down on the wings of hope I won't give in Time may fly - And I will search the world for you Rainbow skies - And I will cross the seven seas for you Race on by - And I will find my way to you Rainbow skies - And I will cross the universe for you |

Oh my brother, kneel with me
And share this dream of paradise Through this cold and freezing night We will survive Oh my sister, walk with me And share this dream of paradise Through this unforgiving night We will survive As the Lantern City lights Burn ever bright |

So here I am
Sitting on a pile of stones Waiting for the rain to fall To wash away the dust from my hands So here I am Sitting on a pile of broken bones Waiting for the sun to shine Just to find my way to another day I hear you call to me But there's nothing I can do I hear you call to me But I can't help you So here I am Nothing more to give the world Hoping for another chance As I try to make a stand against the tide And now I walk in fire I see the flames are grower stronger, dancing higher And voices from the blue Their screams will not be silenced, as I stand accused I look for mercy in their eyes But only find despising gazes So here I am Wasted and torn apart Waiting for the end to come Release me from the guilt I've had to bear So here I am Sitting on a pile of broken hearts Waiting for the end to come And take away the burden of my fear I hear you call to me But there's nothing I can do I hear you call to me But I can't help you - But I can't help you So here I am, sitting on a pile of stones... |

Some bitter puppeteer tore away my right to choose
Dealt me shit instead of cards Watched me bluffing from the start Some warring cavalier rode the truth into the ground Dragged me screaming by the feet Left me sprawling in defeat Right - right to the end We are joined till the universe fades into darkness again Some deep deluded author wrote new chapters in my life Threw my hat into the ring Let the lady start to sing So here we face each other, in the blackness of the night I don't care how it appears This ends now, this ends here Right - right to the end We are joined till the universe fades into darkness again I can read your mind - Your future's so defined Beware you've crossed the line this time Are you so sure of what you'll find A victim of your lies A witness to your own demise There's nowhere else to turn Right - right to the end We are joined till the universe fades into darkness again I can feel your craving - The way that you behave I can hear the thunder roll The pleading of a million souls You've done this to yourself You've done this to yourself There's nowhere else to turn Right - right to the end We are joined till the universe fades into darkness again And you know, yes you know We can't survive alone... on our own! |

I feel vindicated
Looking back on what I've done Not so complicated When moments meet as one Are you ready to part the veil? And write a new beginning to this tale Rising up I see creation from the sky I'm learning to fly Rising up I see creation from the sky This freedom is mine Standing on the mountain The olive leaf in hand Drinking at that fountain So that I might understand Are you ready to start once more? With no idea of what's in store Are you ready to part the veil? And write a new beginning to this tale Rising up I see creation from the sky I'm learning to fly Rising up I see creation from the sky This freedom is mine Rising up I see creation from the stars We've travelled so far Rising up I see creation from the stars We've travelled so far Rising up I am rising up |
