The endless years and hardluck tales,
and some that have just moved on, I guess it could be envy when I wonder what's gone wrong Fingers point at all the problems, but that won't change my mind I must have been held back in hardknox school a few more times A few more years, a few more tears, are we the losers in the game? When time is done and kingdom come, we'll not be losers in the game! No one ever said it's easy to watch the world go by Console myself by trying and trying, and trying just one more time Put on a smile and fake your way in through another door But only if you have more luck than a thousand times before A few more years, a few more tears, are we the losers in the game? When time is done and kingdom come, we'll not be losers in the game! Try again, change direction, spend more money, new horizons, what's it gonna be? Take your hits, I hate my job, live like who, think like what, no thanks I'll just stay me A few more years, a few more tears, are we the losers in the game? When time is done and kingdom come, we'll not be losers in the game! |

You won't find me, in my bed right off the bat
'Cause I've been working, all night long for centuries Bloody Mary, the drink of choice for those who dabble In the nightlife, a well dressed beast with savoir-faire Great God Almighty, I get the craving whenever you're near You are just the right type, a little bit closer my dear When you start to realize, it's too late, you're hypnotized I'm in the shadows, don't cross my path or stake my claim, 'Cause you'll fall victim, and you will not be seen again Holy water, no thirst can make me drink it My cup runs over, the crimson liquid that I need Great God Almighty, I get the craving whenever you're near You are just the right type, a little bit closer my dear When you start to realize, it's too late, you're hypnotized Prince of Darkness, just the thought of daylight sends me Into hiding, waiting for the night to come Great God Almighty, I get the craving whenever you're near You are just the right type, a little bit closer my dear When you start to realize, it's too late, you're hypnotized When you start to realize, it's too late, you're hypnotized You're hypnotized |

No one's born with hatred, it's something that you learn
How do you think the good Lord feels, about the crosses you burn What makes you hate the difference of someone's skin or race? You must think you have more rights to be living in this place I don't know what you feel, or have you lost your mind? Afraid to take a look at yourself, afraid of the things you will find You're no friend of mine The Dark Ages are over, in case you haven't heard While you're lost in ignorance, you killed a mockingbird Hide behind your bedclothes, meet in some secret place One day soon this hate you've brewed will blow up in your face I don't know what you feel, or have you lost your mind? Afraid to take a look at yourself, afraid of the things you will find You're no friend of mine Black and white and yellow, living side by side The children always play together, we taught them otherwise All men created equal, all have human rights So tell me why we hate each other, no winners in the fight I don't know what you feel, or have you lost your mind? Afraid to take a look at yourself, afraid of the things you will find You're no friend of mine |

Night time, see the castles burning
Smoke in the skies and tears in their eyes As the world keeps turning Sleep now, hear a distant thunder It's far away, at least for today Close your eyes and wonder Spring turns so quickly to summer Summer so quickly to fall It seemed far away, or it was yesterday When time didn't matter at all And then you met your winter While dancing with her daughters Till tired and cold Were much wiser than bold You wait for tomorrow to call All of your life you have waited alone for a Savior He's not coming A carousel horse, who is constantly lost Standing still but always running And all of those things that you needed so bad You have found they mean nothing Oh Lord, I'm coming home I'm searching through the haze that's drifting through my mind Stare in the looking glass and wonder who I'll find No one would listen to a man upon the water Until they were old and their mountains of gold couldn't buy any more time All of your life you have waited alone for the Savior He's not coming A carousel horse, who is constantly lost Standing still but always running And all of those things that you needed so bad You have found they mean nothing And Oh Lord, I'm coming home |

I'm your conductor, welcome to the station
Always got an empty seat, no need for reservation There's no need to hesitate, come and step inside Take a chance, climb aboard, come enjoy the ride Here we have the secrets, here we have the answers All forgotten heroes, lost and crippled dancers Come and take my hand child, step onto the stage Dreams that can unlock your mind, like keys unlock a cage Step into the lamp child, 'neath the engine's gaze If you never quite belonged, this train it welcomes strays, for they return Look into my eyes and see they burn Take a look at history and learn All the lessons that the years have earned Still they return I'm your conductor, what's your destination? There's no need for baggage here, so leave it at the station Tell me what you want child, tell me if you see Beckoning in the dark, immortality Yesterday's a dream now, nearly an illusion Tommorrow's just a fantasy that's bordering delusion All the days you've yet to live are rushing towards the past Curtain's up, climb aboard, through the looking glass Step into the lamp child, 'neath the engine's gaze If you never quite belonged, this train it welcomes strays for they return Look into my eyes and see they burn Take a look at history and learn All the lessons that the years have earned Still they return |

Mama, I'm crying, did the silver angel warn the earth
From a blue sky falling? Father, I'm frightened, what will happen if it falls again? Will you be there to shelter me? The little dot that falls, a little boy, that's all That's all Morning comes, I walk to school, but something's in the air Things have changed, there's war at hand, but I'm too young to care My home is a paradise, a jewel in the east My family, they have seen the battles, they're praying for relief Soon to be over, my father he said, victory is ours son We will mourn all of our dead I wonder what happens when a world is at war In order to win, does someone else keep the score? I think of my future on this beautiful day How could I have known that the end's on its way? The sky is quiet Just one single plane To bring destruction Has mankind gone insane? What happened to the land? Metal fused with stone Nothing remains, nothing lives Burned through the bone The sun touched the earth somehow, life melts away One city barren wasteland, a split-second blaze The heat turned the men to shadows, the sand into glass A master stroke of evil in a blinding flash The sea of dead and dying increases by the day For years to come we pay the price of science gone astray |

I've got nowhere to go
I've got some rocks to throw today A child so lost in time A kid whose mind's been blown away He's heard all he can hear And seen more than he wants to see This town's all dead end streets Signs saying what young men should be He will take it down to the river Face down on the ground The day is pounding on your head Lonely in a crowd 'Cause she's in someone else's bed These halls are paved with gold A combination lock on every door The things he's learned today Are stuck in books thrown on the floor He will take it down to the river Another daily grind At sixteen you ain't got time to waste Make some future plans A blueprint of someone else's fate Be yourself they say As long as you do it like we say What's wrong with kids today They need a place to get away They just take it down Take it away Take it all away Down to the river |

I hear it in a minstrel wind, it's crying out the tune
Of a prophet's only hope to tell the world He wrote down it on parchment, but alas no one believes Of the vision only one man could conceive He knows it's true Will the people have the ears to hear or will they turn their heads And blind their eyes to the truth once again How is it that you know the season's changing by the leaves But still you do not know that summer's near? It's near So many teachers preach a lie to the sheep who need a guide They need a God that they can touch and see But only if your faith is strong and hope for the unseen You'll find peace amongst the tragedy Woe to those who hear not Woe to souls who've been bought Oh, it's written on the page Woe to those who fear not Woe to souls who've been bought You don't see the ending of the age You wandered throught the wilderness for forty years or more To lead you to the promised land, promised years before Yet still you bowed down to a calf you made with your own hands Have you still not learned a thing, the wickedness of man And oh, hands up to the sky And oh, the angel passes by One bowl for the wicked One bowl for the sea One bowl for the rivers Men screamed in agony The sun will then be darkened The moon will give no light The earthquakes will shake up the earth The terror in the night And oh, hands up to the sky And oh, watch the beast begin to rise Remember what I've told you Remember what you've seen And tell the human race just what it means |

Extended hand a friendly man who doesn't trust a soul
I wonder why that meeting eyes could put your life on hold Do people feel humanity is something of the past? A kind hello, a favor done, these days could be your last Bar your windows, lock your doors, choose your colors And stay down on the floor Amidst a subtle war that's right outside your door Amidst a subtle war You can't go there at night unless you're feeling immortal 'Cause all of them have guns and knives, at least that's what we're told A neighborhood or DMZ, but people call it home Scared to death of living there, but got nowhere to go Bar your windows, lock your doors, choose your colors And stay down on the floor Amidst a subtle war that's right outside your door Amidst a subtle war Pick your weapon Talk to no one Paranoia Can we take this anymore Amidst a subtle war that's right outside your door Amidst a subtle war |
