Beat the warning the sound of the drums Set the beacons afire for them all Call to arms all the men far and wide Have to fight now for dynasty pride at stake The invaders repel from the north Keep out nomads who come from the plains Northern grasslands awash with them all Blocking the tribes that invade from the south of us Rallying round to the call We can hear far away are the sound of distant drums And they need everyone at the wall So the day of our judgement has now begun to fall Survive on ledges bitten in dust Knowledge and virtue is stricken by lust Really believe that they're coming for us Dancing on graves Of those who bled for us Driven away by our endless desire Defeat by anger and our greatest fire Attack again and try as they might Hold them again and see them running Rallying round to the call We can hear far away are the sound of distant drums And they need everyone at the wall So the day of our judgement has now begun to fall Hear them coming - Ready now we wait Must be steadfast - Must be patient Must believe in - That we can win What will save us - The great wall Now under siege have the real strength to hold them now Have to believe that we can repel them Faith in the years our ancestors taught us Have the belief that we can protect the wall Try if they can we will overthrow them Fight to the last they can never own us Battle of wills we'll fight to the last man Honour our dead so they never fought in vain Hold our fortune - Avenge the merciful Hold the great wall - Never fall again Arrows falling - Dark oblivion - Live in spirit - Live to tell our sons Rallying round to the call We can hear far away are the sound of distant drums And they need everyone at the wall So the day of our judgement has now begun to fall |

Stratego

How do you read a madman's mind Teach me the art of war For I shall bring more Than you bargained for Give me an ultimatum That I could not dream of Spills of a crying nation Upon my soul For I have not a mortal soul That you already know Look at my eyes There's no surprise Ocean is black the devil's track Looking beyond beneath the sea Eye of the storm is here again Been there before you were ever born Beyond the dark I feel the pain It's hidden but I can't explain A cross to bear A heavy faith My sorrow whispers Time again I hear you calling my name Come to claim my life again Pray for me I'm almost there The pain almost too much to bear I try to find my way back home To feel the same again The voice of nothing Listened far too long Little by little eat away I think I've lost my mind Too late to change now What I left behind Hear me listen my call I am ready to fall Lord hear me now - let me go Ocean is black the devil's track Looking beyond beneath the sea Eye of the storm is here again Been there before you were ever born Beyond the dark I feel the pain It's hidden but I can't explain A cross to bear A heavy faith My sorrow whispers Time again |

The Writing on the Wall
|
|
Across a painted desert lies a train of vagabonds All that's left of what we were it's what we have become Once our empires glorious but now the empire's gone The dead gave us the time to live and now our time is done Now we are victorious, we've become our slaves A land of hope and glory building graveyards for the brave Have you seen the writing on the wall? Have you seen that writing? Can you see the riders on the storm? Can you see them riding? Can you see them riding? Holding on to fury is that all we ever know Ignorance our judge and jury all we've got to show From Hollywood to Babylon ~ holy war to kingdom come On a trail of dust and ashes ~ when the burning sky is done A tide of change is coming and that is what you fear The earthquake is a coming but you don't want to hear You're just too blind to see Have you seen the writing on the wall? Have you seen that writing? Can you see the riders on the storm? Can you see them riding? Can you see them riding, riding next to you? Have you seen the writing on the wall? Have you seen that writing? Can you see the riders on the storm? Can you see them riding? Have you seen the writing on the wall? Have you seen that writing? Can you see the riders on the storm? Can you see them riding? Can you see them riding, riding next to you? |

Lost in a Lost World
|
|
All is not it seems to be on the outside Sometimes what appears to be is a show What shows in the face is only a mirror We all have some better places to go We don't know just what we have 'til we've lost it Until that time comes and know that it's gone So hard to say things that we should have uttered long ago Tear myself away from thoughts in my head The people worshiping the sun And all the children point up to the sky They see the eagle as it floats on the wind And they follow with their spirits high Buffalo roam on the plain We walk in to the flames but dance for rain The hallowed dead in sacred ground and the elders And we wash away their sins for them Feel the spirits of the old ones standing proud upon their race And the testament to ancestors ~ that are never to retrace Burn the flame of innocence ~ as they ride into the sun Thinking now of our forefathers that are lying dead upon Holy ground and sacred earth now Revisit stolen youth Lost in a lost world Buried on sacred ground Lost in a lost world Lying on sacred ground... Lost in a lost world Buried on sacred ground Lost in a lost world Lying on sacred ground... Lost in a lost world Standing on sacred ground Lost in a lost world Lying on sacred ground... Will we ever heal our old wounds Like forever darkness worn Fighting for their lives again So come on now don't be afraid This is where destiny lies Just to let us breathe again Put upon this earth to wander And to walk ~ forever lost With the ashes of our enemies To live among our ghosts Of our past fear nothing Life is but a better path to joy Nowhere to go nowhere to run Our whole nation overrun Itself existence under threat And soon will be none of us left Remember names of all our dead now In enemies that fled Reaching for our sky forever free A sadness that is proud As the clouds all drift away now Until we meet again |

Days of Future Past
|
|
A war in heaven in god's rage He put me in this burning cage Holy fury locks me in Imprisoned by my deadly sin Every hour the shadow king Wonders what his clock will bring I've lived and loved and that's for sure My fatal quest forever more The days of future past to wander on the shore A king without a queen to die for evermore To wander in the wasteland Immortal to the end Waiting for the judgement But the judgement never ends Once crucified you forgave it all But my own life condemned to fall Where's the glory in your name My twisted soul still burns in flame Hark you angels hear my call Father witness to my fall Between the lines of sin and pain I walk the earth now doomed again The days of future past to wander on the shore A king without a queen to die for evermore To wander in the wasteland Immortal to the end Waiting for the judgement But the judgement never ends The days of future past to wander on the shore A king without a queen to die for evermore To wander in the wasteland Immortal to the end Waiting for the judgement But the judgement never ends The days of future past to wander on the shore A king without a queen to die for evermore To wander in the wasteland Immortal to the end Waiting for the judgement But the judgement never ends |

The Time Machine

Put to the sword by an impish whim Follow me now to a place we begin Wrought with no anger, wrought with no fear Devilish children playing here Hidden in silence, below barren waste Confusion hunger, am I still awake? Have I ever told you about my time machine Sit you down I'll tell you everywhere I've been I have lived a long life, life extraordinaire Let me tell you about it, let me take you there Does it really matter, it's all in the mind Let me tell you about it, listen what you'll find I am not a preacher, I am but a man You cannot imagine what I've seen and done I have lived a long life, I have seen the world I could tell you stories, hair will stand on end Stand among the steeples, stand upon the walls I have seen a god's face, I have no disgrace I have seen the gods cry, howling in the wind Where do I get started, when can I begin I am not a preacher, I am but a man You cannot imagine what I've seen and done Sleep with a light that is dark to my eyes Father and sons give me all of your lies The brutal truth, that is never a lie Full moon is out, as you look to the sky I am not a preacher, I am but a man You cannot imagine what I've seen and done Open your heart and I'll open your soul Even in quieter moments I know I am not a preacher, I am but a man You cannot imagine what I've seen and done Eerie collection, darkness is there, wedded to danger Betrothed to despair |

Darkest Hour
|
|
We buried our sons, we turned and fled No growing old, the glorious dead But we came back because one man said Now on the beaches the blood runs red I faced them down, the only one I stood alone and warned the day would come But they were wrong, appeasers every one And not for the last time, we all stand alone I watch the sun move away as I embrace the night And my black dog has its day for six long years you shall not pass Barbarians at the gates, we will overcome Here I stand in a serenade of glory Naked by the throne of kings You sowed the wind and now you reaped The whirlwind before the dawn The darkest hour The darkest hour To blaze in glory like a dying sun One last burning giant till Jupiter moves on Turn the ploughshares into swords You sons of Albion awake defend this sacred land Here I stand in a serenade of glory Naked by the throne of kings You sowed the wind and now you reaped the whirlwind Before the dawn the darkest hour The darkest hour Here I stand in a serenade of glory Naked by the throne of kings You sowed the wind and now you reaped the whirlwind Before the dawn the darkest hour Here I stand in a serenade of glory Naked by the throne of kings You sowed the wind and now you reaped the whirlwind Before the dawn the darkest hour Before the dawn the darkest hour |

Death of the Celts

The road it winds uphill all the way Ride to glory on this day Remember now to do him so proud In God we trust, cry it out loud Redeem my salve of winning ways Remember all the darkest days Of that I know will see me tread Walketh upon the field of the dead The burden of blood, the breaketh of bone The battlefield now I make it my own The glory of the morning we make Praying the rose is still awake Lord above, my spirit says Death is not proud, no more, no less Power of my soul will be free Deliver us on to victory Wither a pain that's almost a joy Wander there, my heart will destroy Dreaming of days of our youth again Strangely, no wonder memories remain Pour thy scorn upon the realm Pity me none at the gates of our hell For I am but a messenger one Sent to do reckoning, what must be done Praying to our wretched doom Liberty, freedom, maybe death looms Wishing upon a fair display Hoping our cause done, faithfully Wayward thunder over rain Giving me time to think again Send to their graves on this day Silent where the battle dead lay Vengeance is for all who lay dead I have no fear, my body has bled I will live on in rebirth again Come to me now, embrace it my friend Spirits cry for a god from the grave In darkness, fortune favours the brave Dying, a warrior Celt has no fear Immortal, for he will live evermore Dying, a warrior Celt has no fear Immortal, for he will live evermore Think I am, that I'm almost there Following now the depths of despair Beyond the light, darkness will fall Coming to take the life from us all Following now where god can't explain Bidding farewell, a lifeline again Following those who came from hell Came to witness the death of the Celts |

The Parchment

When the moon will rise again Until we read the Parthian skin Broken fears warring days are here again 'Fore we all to dust descend Heaven knows when life will end God to know in the mire, put out the fire Know there is a cross to bear In your primal quest of fear No quarter now is given no less Aslumber was my main ideal Asunder did my spirit steal Sceptred race uttered words in disgrace Sweet revenge will be ours Vengeance of a shaken world Just remember that patience is no sin And to find another way Live to breathe another day Lord of light in the darkness, our guide In a tempest never shaken Edge of doom is not mistaken Countenance is not a sin Gallant king, we bow to him Fierce as wolf with a leopard skin Dark and bitter deep within Invader punished with his life Vanquished in the morning Sea of blood in light divine Unholy reverence enjoyed Intoxicated with their hell Man immortal sickness dwell Savage beasts troops engage Assembled here to butcher blades Smoke has darkened in the air Smell of death and deep despair Wilderness a tyrant dream Sell your soul not give them power Slay upon imperial crown Witness now the witching hour Bound himself to oath and king Such loyalty a shameless thing Youth of agony still burn Shedding parents blood Never say a prayer to me For this crime and treachery Drinking from your cup of wisdom true Many men will follow you Now an army is raised And our gods, they be praised Death is but a gilted edge Shall no more than we will pledge Hear the cry we are ready to believe The prodigal has returned Give us our own revenge With the power he learned We will burn the same again A betrayal of angels In a foreign land A revenge for the merciful Destiny at hand For all those who have written In the sand will be told That the same will happen Searching for gold Like a fire in the sky I can feel strength return Heading for afterlife Meet me there |

Hell on Earth
|
|
Beginning of a sunrise bores a big hole in the sky Not to reason why that Armed children are in this world And fighting in the name of God's way Mourning bleak and utter waste The vanity of the world is assured now Prey upon the weak no more The spirits of those who are gone Propaganda of the battles That are lost or won And count your blessings still alive Of those who managed to survive Inside oblivion of that hell on earth All you have been, all you have seen Lost in somewhere in your dreams How the angels they have fallen All is nothing what it seems In the voices that you hear now In the voices in your head Now are thinking of a lifetime You can never feel again I wish I could go back Will never be the same again Bled for all upon this hell on earth And when I leave this world I hope to see you all again On the other side of hell on earth Upon the eyes of good I'm following the light again In between the dark of hell on earth On the other side I'll see again heaven So far away from this hell on earth You dance on the graves who bled for us Do you really think they'll come for us Knowledge and virtue taken by lust Live on the edge of those that you trust You think that you have all the answers for all In your arrogant way only one way to fall Burning a lamp that is fire in your hands Taking you further from these lands Love in anger, life in danger Lost in anger, life in danger |
