1. Modern Prophet
The news came down today
A million lives at stake
One nation strives to make
The suffering go away
And bring on a new age
Modern Prophets
See a new way
All that you know is wrong they say
Modern Prophets are gone tomorrow
Hold on to your dreams
Chinese civil war
Ends in blood and gore
Rights we take for granted
Taken all away
Students burn the flag
First amendment rights
Despite the land that lets
Her children desecrate
Their feelings filled with hate
2. Dirty Secrets
You live your life in spite
From day to day
You spread your evil lies
It's always been your way
You don't care who you hurt
You don't care who you burn
The pain you put me through awaits
My every turn
Now I can see
The truth in your eyes
The filthy lies
Don't tell me lies
Don't turn your back on me
Dirty secrets never let you go
Dirty secrets never make it so
All the words you said were never true
Now your dirty secrets
Are haunting you
Let's have the truth be known
I never know what's true
You spend your every day
With nothing else to do
The lives you claim this day
Are looking for revenge
And now you'll have to pay
Until the very end
3. Soul Inside Of Me
Words and pictures
Always on my mind
Think of these visions
All of the time
And when I am alone
I am so far away
Distant reflections of another day
It's so far away
Space and time
I have these words to say
It's no crime
Bitterness surrounds my memories
You killed the soul inside of me
Crushed beneath the weight
Of your needs
Wanted to give you more
But now I finally see
A hopeless situation
I would loose in the end
Ultimate rejection
Lost my closest friend
Why'd it have to end
4. The Creator
Here I sit
Upon the sands of time
Holding visions
Deep within my mind
Wondering now
I look up to the sky
To know someday
I am going to die
Sit back and time will tell
Facing fears I know too well
The creator knows it's time
Living life is so sublime
Killing time
They say that life is just a game
Although the fear is gone
I still can feel the pain
Heaven knows
It's all just a matter of time
Now I see
How precious life can be
5. Indian Summer
Gaze upon the heavens
The sky cracks wide open
Storm clouds filled with lightning
As thunder is rolling
Day of judgement on us
The white dogs come crawling
Stricken down by lies
Their forked tongues are talking
Fires burn the prairie
Herds of buffalo thinning down
Spirits carry my body across the divide
Armies raiding the village
Blood of warriors spilling out
Days of Indian Summer return
Time to die
Round us up like cattle
And lead us to the slaughter
Spreading your diseases
With wiskey filled water
Tribal customs dying
Remind us of our shame
Justice will be served
When our lands are reclaimed
On and on and on and on
We go
To live another day
To our gods
We pray
6. Odyssey
As the dawn breaks
On new horizons
Rays of hope are cast
Beneath the sea
Behemoths of the ancient times
Cry their mournful song
Through eternity
Hear the songs
Of oceans blue
Where children's hopes and dreams
May never come
See the killing
And senseless slaughter
As their number
Fade with the setting sun
Tears of pain and sarrow
To be sung once again
All of our dreams
Our dreams will never end
Can't you see the tears of Cetacea
They're what helps to keep this ocean alive
Cry for me you tears for Cetacea
Without them this world would surely die
With steam and steel
Used to hunt them all
Now closer to the
Edge of extinction
Their flesh and bone
Prized commodities
Death pays the price
It's mark of distinction
From coral reefs
To the murky deep
A few safe havens
For the very last
As they race now
For their survival
Fighting against
The deadly harpoon blast
