1. Death

Death rides and the old man cries, where on earth can we hide
This transformation he fears, he knows not where he'll end
Will he burn in hell and rot, damned for eternity
Or will he re-incarnate once more and face this life again

Metamorphosis, a necessary transformation
A halfway point 'tween dusk and dawn
A husk that must be shorn

Death comes and the wise man sings
A glorious day has arrived
This transformation he welcomes
He'll fly to the other side
He knows he'll not rot in the crypt
Worm food for eternity
Death is not the end he knows
But a time when the soul is free

Cast In The Abyss what waits for thee
New life beginning or re-incarnate eternally
Will you find the answer before your time
You're on your way, don't know what you'll find
The gods have your answers but they're not in your mind
Swers before your time
You're on your way, don't know what you'll find
The gods have your answers but they're not in your mind

2. Sleep Of Despair

I can see all around me in this lucid state
My own mind controls my real fate
But if I wake from slumber, then returns despair
Of the days depression, forgets the dreams I share
If I sleep in peace do I loose my sin
Or does it linger to when the day begin

I've been trying for so long now to avoid the crimes of mind
The things I want, desire can it damn me from all peace
I lie awake and pray for sleep to take the sorrow away for now
In the dreams I'll find new hope, will hope ever cure my ills

I hear a woman's voice is calling

A voice I've never heard
I have no vision of her image
My dread is growing, I don't know

If I ever care to wake up
I know my fear will extend still
The inner workings of my mind
Can never sleep or calm my mind
The troubled waters of my world
Aren't consumed by restful sleep
Now upon the mornings rising
I find life's gauntlet carries on

In a building with no doorways

Escape can never be
Despair my only love
I find my way through the dreams of doom
Despair reaches out in the black of night
Embracing my life's dream
I still resist/break the curse/my faith
Will live/where hope denies my peace
And through revealed/ in fragments of my mind
My will exists/to roam the corridors of life

I am the force, I've searched and sought so long
My name is his through ancient dreams may now obscure

3. Inner Ascendance

Outpouring of light
Consciousness erupts
The boundaries of our minds
Is our path forsaken
Of our universe
What coheres matter
Forming gas and solids
Or the breath of life
Enlightened forms realize
Their master seek ascendance
Return their rightful home
All vibration seeking faster movement
Calms the pain and brings us closer still

You and I must journey to a place where still resides
Our souls in evolution must bring us close to

Organized forms of matter from one source arise
Through linking eternal forces the trust freedom lies
As one we strive for justice, karmic laws still survive
As harmonic vortex light and sound lead us home

Running through fields of vision
Our once romantic vision of soul must lead us home

Leads to/our heaven/makes our matter pure
Everlasting/ascent is now made pure

4. Life

Life ever changing it's hidden reality
But then in a moment we see
Is this just a shadow
Of the spirit planes we've yet to see
Lord come soon for me
If I was once in heaven
Who cast me to this hell
Am I a fallen angel, a coin in the
Bottom of a wishing well
I know that life's a gift
A shadow of the spirit plane
But my flesh is weak and the
World would have my spirit break
Life is pure beauty
Through eyes we see
But the Kal force
Has power of flesh lust and greed
The power to guide it
We can't control
We can be in it, but only through soul
Innocents born from heaven learn life's reality
Through choosing Christ's spirit we're free
If you can find heaven on this earthly plane
Your soul is mature may fly home again
Your task is complete your spirit now pure
Leave planet hell from satan's lure
But if you're still a prisoner to the pleasures of your flesh
Relive this carnal death
Life everlasting though the body soon must cease
Through soul find eternal peace
Life isn't over though the body's met it's fate
Spirit burns, it's never too late
Life did you make it all it could be
Fates warning was never heard
Though tongues of fire spoke his word
You were a fool

5. Nihilism's Spell

From the time we are born we see we must die
Some fear the coming day praying to their deity
Some have philosophy, follow a path they've chosen
Others just wait and see
Live their life in belief they're free

Will you stop? And look around, what's your truth
That you have found

Our celebration is decay, for is drugs is our way
Poison in our food we'll eat, chemicals to make it sweet
Why should we stop the celebration of decay we love
our death soaked way
Out thirst for life fades by the day

What truth have you found

We all live for the end
To face the truth our hopes send
Nihilism reigns supreme

Is their death after birth
Is man doomed to peace on earth
Perversion now holds sway
Lust for death guides our way

Why are we free to choose
When in the end we all must loose
Free to see what life may bring
Yet deaths pleasures reign as king

6. Technoricide

Seeking to amplify
Power in all senses
Man creates devices
That change relations of his world
In changing he fails to see
He's now become a slave to devices
Who's charm he's succumbed
His bias altered now
From sense to sense

Sound or vision tested which reigns as best
And so he fails the test of unity
Integration of the whole creates awareness he shall see
Oh things that we've made, changing our lives
We've come so far, electric light
Measure the day, lengthen the night
We can make our way without fight
In alphabet we've shifted sound to words we see
No more the sound of voices has effect on literacy
Are amplifiers of the rage that seethes
The photo makes museum obsolete
For treasures are now exposed
For all to view in complete
The phone has shrunk our world
Down to village size
To talk the neighbors
Who just don't see our eyes

We rule nature
A fragment whole
Enlisted science, to take control
But where's our future
What lies in our hands
A technocracy, or integrated whole

Can we arrange a world
That's filled with harmony
Eliminate pollution
And keep our people free

Must life be calibrated
By technocontrol
Can freedom be maintained
By thinking of the whole

Our patriots will vanish
Like ghosts of the night
Unite the world as one
Will be our holy fight!

7. Fast As A Shark

оригинал: Accept

Fog in the streets
A church clock beats
Midnight – darkness all around

You better beware
You better take care
Be prepared for the shock

The time has come
And he's the one
Who's breathing down your neck

Coming from behind
Now it's your time
A loser will die

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer – he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's on the attack

Surprise attack
Coming from the back
An expert of the deadly knack

Just take care
Just beware
Be prepared for the fight

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer – he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's on the attack

Watch out – watch out

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer – he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's on the attack

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer – he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'Cause the killer's
'Cause the killer's
'Cause the killer's on the attack

8. Gangland

оригинал: Iron Maiden

Shadows may hide you but also may be your grave
You're running today maybe tomorrow you'll be saved
You pray for daylight to save you for a while
You wonder if your children will face the killer's smile

Dead men – tell no tales
In Gangland – murders up for sale
Dead men – tell no tales
In Gangland – where jail birds die

Face at the window leers into your own
But it's only your reflection still you tremble in your bones
How long can you hide? How long till they come?
A rat in a trap but you've got to survive

Once you were glad to be free for a while
The air tasted good and the world was your friend
Then came the day when the hard times began
Now your alone but alive for how long?

A knife at your throat another body on the pile
A contract to keep and it's service with a smile
Murder for vengeance or murder for gain
Death on the streets or a blacked out jail

Dead men – tell no tales
In Gangland – murders up for sale
Dead men – tell no tales
In Gangland – where jail birds die

In Gangland you tell no tales

9. Ides Of March / Purgatory

оригинал: Iron Maiden

Thinking of an age old dream
Places I have never seen
Fantasies lived times before
I split my brain, melt through the floor

Over clouds my mind will fly
forever now I can't think why
My body tries to leave my soul
Or is it me, I just don't know

Memories rising from the past
The future's shadow overcast
Something's clutching at my head
Through the darkness I'll be led

Oh another time, another place
Oh another smile on another face
When you see me floating up beside you
You get the feeling that all my love's inside of you

Please take me away, take me away, so far away
Please take me away, take me away, so far away
Please take me away, take me away, so far away

Thinking of an age old dream, places I have never seen
Fantasies lived times before
I split my brain, melt through the floor

Over clouds my mind will fly
Forever now I can't think why
My body tries to leave my soul
Or is it me, i just don't know

Memories rising from the past
The future's shadow overcast
Something's clutching at my head
Through the darkness I'll be led

Oh another time, another place
Oh another smile on another face
When you see me walking up beside you
You get the feeling that all my love's inside of you

Please take me away, take me away, so far away
Please take me away, take me away, so far away
Please take me away, take me away, so far away

10. Fade To Black

оригинал: Metallica

Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further everyday
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he is gone

No one but me can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try

Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye

11. Dreamer Deceiver

оригинал: Judas Priest

Standing by my window, breathing summer breeze
Saw a figure floating, 'neath the willow tree
Asked us if we were happy, we said we didn't know
Took us by the hands and up we go

We followed the dreamer through the purple hazy clouds
He could control our sense of time
We thought we were lost but no matter how we tried
Everyone was in peace of mind

We felt the sensations drift inside our frames
Finding complete contentment there
And all the tensions that hurt us in the past
Just seemed to vanish in thin air

He said in the cosmos is a single sonic sound
That is vibrating constantly
And if we could grip and hold on to the note
We would see our minds were free...oh they're free

We are lost above
Floating way up high
If you think you can find a way
You can surely try

12. Neon Knights

оригинал: Black Sabbath

Oh no, here it comes again
Can't remember when we came so close to love before
Hold on, good things never last
Nothing's in the past, it always seems to come again
Again and again, again and again and again
Cry out to legions of the brave
Time again to save us from the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
Captain's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights
Circles and rings, dragons and kings
Weaving a charm and a spell
Blessed by the night, holy and bright
Called by the toll of the bell
Bloodied angels fast descending
Moving on a never-bending light
Phantom figures free forever
Out of shadows, shining ever-bright
Neon Knights!
Neon Knights! All right!
Cry out to legions of the brave
Time again to save us from the jackals of the street
Ride out, protectors of the realm
Captain's at the helm, sail across the sea of lights
Again and again, again and again and again
Neon Knights!
Neon Knights! All right!

13. Don't You Forget About Me

оригинал: Simple Minds

Hey...ooh...
Won't you come see about me
I'll be alone dancing

You know it, baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Givin' evrything inside and out on
Love's strange, so willing in the dark
Think of the tender things
That we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light get in your heart

Baby, don't you forget about me
Don't, don't, don't, don't you forget about me

I knew you spent above me
Look my way never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down...
I knew you recognize me
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down...
Hey...ooh...

Don't you try and peep in
It's my feelings. well, when in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Valuable insecurity, ah...
Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone dancing,
You know what baby,
Don't you, I take you apart
I'll put it back together at heart

Don't you forget about me
Don't, don't, don't you forget about me
As you walk on by
Will you call my name
As you walk on by
Will you call my name
When you walk away

Oh...when you walk away
Will you walk away
Will you call my name
Will you call my name
