1. Unorthodox Methods
Danger lurks in every place
A mother fights to protect her child
Tradition stipulates its way
It's easy for them to say
Influences all around
Hard to change, creatures of habit
Sacrifices must be made
A few white lies she must tell
The pressure lay on her shoulders
Decisions unfair
Desperately seeking comfort
Searching for strength not there
Have no fear
Unorthodox ways, unorthodox methods
Alone and afraid, different from others
All alone
She carries the strain, the future uncovers
Hide your tears
Years of hardship and of pain
Corruption lingers in all the dark corners
Her efforts are in vain
His perception of life has changed
Don't waste your time
He's lost, it's time to pray
Stupid to point a finger, she isn't to blame
Believing that life will bring him strength
The courage to find his way
2. Frenzy
A constant fear she has
A mother's instinct to protect
His innocence her child, must not be influenced
Surreal nightmares they appear
Before her very eyes
The walls start closing in, then the madness begins
The consequences of her actions
Into a life of stress he came
Frenzy, frenzy
On the edge of a nervous breakdown
A living hell, going crazy Frenzy, frenzy
The unknown, eats your soul alive
Your heart pounds, your blood is boiling
In her chaotic mind
The darkest secrets she would tell
And smothered them with tales,
Not for others
A psychological affect, she'd created
Caused the child to change, he was never the same
Ad-libs
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Telling insane stories over again
3. Angel Without Wings
His mother sad, now she's left alone
No shoulder to cry on, no hand to hold
To stay alive, worked her fingers to the bone
Guilt nor shame, her child must have a home
She tried to teach him right from wrong
A town without vision, they don't belong
Eternal friends, persuasive lies
Tainted images, through sorry eyes
Don't be shy, pull up a stool, stick with us
You'll do okay
Money talks, that's their rule,
Once you join, you're here to stay
you can't walk away
Lord knows she tried hard to save him
The angel without wings
Stigmatised, the poor, the few
Opportunities given, but not to you
He searched along the corridors of power
A fruitless journey, his darkest hour
By any rule he doesn't play,
Now he's the keeper, no-one's fool
Who said crime doesn't pay
All his fears have disappeared
Lord knows she tried so hard, to save him
Lord knows she tried so hard, to save him
The angel without wings
Time, will it tell, a choice of heaven or hell
The years have passed by, the leaves have fallen
Learn to survive in time, you're on your own
4. Savage Grace
Full of charm, so open minded
Lets you talk 'till you're blue in the face
Compassion sincere
His own portrayal, the proud example to others
When in fact, a covenant he's made
With the dark side of hell
Wait! Don't be fooled by him
Stop! don't go near him
His appearance can change, like the chameleon
We're all his helpless subjects
And like his damaged toys
Once they're of no importance
With savage grace destroys
So supreme, a master to many
An' acts like a friend, offers comfort to all
Patiently, telling wild fabrications
Gaining your trust the thrill, the thrill of it all
Get ready to run!
5. Master Of Deception
No compromise, no words can make him see
He's elevated to a higher level
To feed a need, let the adrenalin flow
A warped sensation, deceit is blissful
Mystified by lies, demoralizing
No second glance, face to face
Thru' those naked eyes, captivating
He'll suck you dry, and leave no trace
Once inside your head, the captive mind his game
Manipulates his way, terrorizing
Secrets kept alive, subconscious thoughts awake
Watch him take control, hypnotizing
A master of, pure deception
His testimony that, that he's a freak of nature
Take a look into those eyes
And I can tell you what you'll see
6. Solitary Day
All of that money you've made
From all of those souls with their lives they've paid now
Lost your pride, locked inside
Where's the light at the end of the road
Blame and sorrow
No more day, just, tomorrow
Close the door, turn the key
Lock the misery away!
You're living in an ivory tower
All of the guilt you should feel when all of the torment you caused was real
Truth you've found, changed your made
At the end of the road there's a light
So many places, hidden lies, saddened faces
Close the door take the key, try and throw it away far, far away
In a solitary day
There's a solitary point of view
Hide the fear away!
That's the price you have to pay
They're coming to get you, put boards on your windows
It won't take 'em long 'till they find out a way
Don't sleep stay awake now, look over your shoulder
Your enemy's coming to take you away!
In a solitary day, there's a solitary point of view
Hide your fear away, it strips away the good in you
7. Manifestation Of Fear
You know what they say, your many victims
What comes around, goes around
Over indulgence, uncivilized
Uncertainty, created your discontentment
His spirit is broken, lives in a world unreal
An infectious hatred
See how it feels
Now look at you
Manifestation of fear
Man's own creation
Manifestation of fear
The mind's exaggeration
First the unexpected, then the unexplained
Being a victim, that makes him so afraid
The resulting factor, his fear's coming alive
Silently, he's slowly suffocating
His spirit is broken, lives in a world unreal
Suffer gods children, see how it feels
Now look at you
Locked away, all alone
He doesn't know what to expect
Afraid of fear, fear itself
To manifest, taking control
8. Victim Of Circumstance
Looking back in time,
Without consent.
two lovers ran away
A tragic tale, so often made
So sad and destined to fail
They're in and out of every place
Searchin' hard a sad disgrace
At best a darkened room, without a view
Those memories, still remain
Never once did she complain
Now time repeats itself, all over again
What he did, was insane
Sadly his own life he'd take
And you've been left to face the guilt, alone
Just try to remember
He was a victim of circumstance
Close your eyes, try to recall
The strength you felt
Now, is the time to be stronger
Than you've ever been before
Bury all your anguish and fear, you're not to blame
Don't analyze, come to terms
Face the truth, don't turn away
Where there's a will, there has to be a way
Into the world, your child came
Responsibility or shame
He backed away from you, don't lose him again
You're not alone! you've got to be stronger
9. The Forgotten
Ignored by the many, adored by the chosen few
Friends he hasn't any, just his own point of view
There stands a lady inbetween the shadows
Waiting patiently for you
Holding out her hand she whispers
Together we'll pull through
She transforms his anger
Helps him wipe away the tears
I'll be there, standing next to you
I'll be there I will pray, I will pray for you
'Cos you're one of the forgotten children
One of the, one of those forgotten children
One of the forgotten friends
Cast away those sins forgiven
Fight on, fight on to the end
You've gotta fight on
10. Redemption
(инструментал)
11. Metamorphosis
Infantile dillusion, played the biggest part
Anger caused confusion
A childhood fear, of fear itself
Mere mortals playing god
It's time to stop, feel the yearning
Mother Nature's calling you, a metamorphosis working
Your body's aching all the time
A shadow lurking
Your saviour's waiting in the wings
Night turns to day, only shame remains real
Take their misery away, redeem
Heal the pain they feel
A chance to turn it all around, a time for sharing
Bury your fears into the ground
Met-a-morphosis
Put your hatred aside, hear the calling
Metamorphosis
A transformation of kind forming, a season of good is dawning
Put away those evil thoughts
Open up your heart and breathe
Met-a-morphosis
Put your hatred aside, hear the calling
Metamorphosis
A transformation of kind, a season of good is dawning
Hear the calling, have no fear!
The cries of tomorrow, was all you could hear
But the road you have chosen, has wiped away the tears
Silence is golden – silence is real.
