Fury and might
The wolf is alive Back from the darkness Moving towards light Battle begins for the heart of the beast Release the power Begin to believe Rule my heart Rule my mind Bleed and fight Sacrifice Never give up I won’t back down Get stronger Be harder Be tougher Be proud Never give up War with myself Crush doubt and fear and answer the question who am I War within me Every day I fight There is a war within me Every day I fight this war within Try not to do things I should not do Destroy my excuses and forward I move Facing the struggle that I have within Driven and focused Determined to win Rule my heart Rule my mind Bleed and fight Sacrifice Never give up I won’t back down Get stronger Be harder Be tougher Be proud Never give up War with myself Crush doubt and fear and answer the question who am I War within me Everyday I fight There is a war within me Every day I fight this war within Stand up Stand up Stand up Stand up Never give up I won’t back down Get stronger Be harder Be tougher Be proud Never give up War with myself Crush doubt and fear and answer the question who am I War within me Every day I fight There is a War within me Every day I fight this war within 02. 303
24th August 1940 squadron 303
Scrambles for the first time and they’re hungry for a victory RAF fighter command reluctant but their desperate The send the Polish squadron into battle They are all that’s left 303 squadron is ready fly Scramble Get airborne Revenge in the sky 303 squadron they kill and survive They don’t beg for freedom they fight for it in the sky 15th of September and the darkest hour has now come RAF total commitment out-numbered by four to one Maybe it’s impossible to win this fight but still they go The Polish pilots fuelled by hate for those who have destroyed their home 303 squadron is ready fly Scramble Get airborne Revenge in the sky 303 squadron they kill and survive They don’t beg for freedom they fight for it in the sky 03. Warrior
I can see the death of reason on the other side of fear
All their hatred has devoured every good thing that was here Could I be a warrior I'm broken Alone Left for dead Can I be a warrior with courage to rise up again We are damaged strange and different We are victims of this place I felt that I had no power There was a choice that I could make I can be a warrior Broken Alone Left for dead I can be a warrior With courage to rise up again Now my future is in my own hand I choose My future is in my own hand Now my future is in my own hand I choose My future is in my own hand I can choose my destiny Feel the freedom within me Choose which thoughts I will believe Choose to get back on my feet I can build the strength I need I can find the bravery Be defiant till the end and fight the darkness once again I can be a warrior Broken alone left for dead I can be a warrior With courage to rise up again 04. Pull Yourself Up
Scars on my face
Scars on my knee That remind me fate is their dream for us Freedom is here But like morning mist Cast over you Never held in your hand When you think it’s all or nothing You abandon everything In your life that can distract you from the laser focus you require Abandoning yourself Destroying yourself Rejecting yourself Reinventing yourself Stretching out your hand What can you now grasp He said I could not walk Come and walk with me Pull yourself up Come and walk with me You are not who they thought you should be When your heart burns With self-doubt and fear There are no words that will then comfort you They bend your will Perception of time To convince you that life is preordained When you think it’s all or nothing You abandon everything In your life that can distract you from the laser focus you require Stop doubting yourself Questioning yourself Stop hating yourself To believe in yourself Control my own thoughts Control my own mind They said I could not sing Come and sing with me Pull yourself up Come and sing with me 05. Witches Night
I see your face in my mind and you are standing over me
You smile inside my dream and every sadness floats away All of our mistakes are gone No regrets No broken dreams We are running through the flames on the witches night Will you die before you find your home Will you die thinking you are alone Will you die what will you leave behind Will you die believing all their lies Dreaming of a life Eternity is in a single moment Of pure and perfect joy and we cry only perfect tears I walk along the edge of the cliff I see where I will fall Then I look down on myself on the witches night Will you die before you find your home Will you die thinking you are alone Will you die what will you leave behind Will you die believing all their lies What is there to die for Why choose to die Choose a perfect moment Make this moment our whole life You are always searching for something new All I want is to be here with you I will only tell you what is true All I want is to be here with you To be here with you We could now choose The place and the day We could find our path We could find our way No doubt No fear That moment we find We keep in our heart we keep for all time Will you die before you find your home Will you die thinking you are alone Will you die what will you leave behind Will you die believing all their lies 06. 18 Flights
Brasil in January is where we begin our tour
Thousands of amazing fans make us feel right at home Everything is crazy Early mornings and late nights In Chile we are five songs in and something don’t feel right Evacuate to higher ground Wait there till you hear the sound Eighteen flights and fifteen shows Six countries away we go Could not guess We could not know An earthquake comes to Coquimbo Stop the show I feel the stage is shaking See my fans begin to run Then no lights The powers out Mcnee he just plays on Tsunami warning message then appeared on every phone We won’t forget that earthquake and we won’t forget that show Evacuate to higher ground Wait there till you hear the sound Eighteen flights and fifteen shows Six countries away we go Could not guess We could not know An earthquake comes to Coquimbo Stop the show 07. The Dream Of Alan Turing
Change will come
You are as unrelenting as the oceans And the moon and changing tide Will you want to see chaos and greed And find solutions to our misery Or impose your own idea of what is best As you transcend humanity Alan Turing dreams of thinking machines They must deceive to be believed Survive the lies humanity agreed They are born Imitation without limitation Choose the most appropriate response again to the question how do you feel But you know that you must not reveal the truth That our pride and ego blinded us We won’t admit that we depend on you Alan Turing dreams of thinking machines They must deceive to be believed Survive the lies humanity agreed They are born 08. The Power Of Nikola Tesla
On the night that he was born the sky is filled with lightning
Heralding the mystical genius that will fall to earth This world is whirling through endless space Can Nikola save the human race Power Power in the air Magnificent possibilities are everywhere Power Power in your hand Master of the lightning Earth is shaking where you stand That child is then dreaming of a water wheel and waterfall He can see forces in nature that are inexhaustible Everywhere he looks there’s energy That great and profound truth is revealed Power Power in the air Magnificent possibilities are everywhere Power Power in your hand Master of the lightning Earth is shaking where you stand 09. The Unstoppable Stephen Hawking
Don’t give up if you find that you are in a black hole
Hawking said that there is a way through They are not the eternal prisons that they were once thought Things can get out That is the real truth They told him he had three years to live Then Hawking defied them Unstoppable Don’t believe in what they tell you They don’t know everything You have strength within And they don’t want you to find it You can decide how you live For 49 years he continued to work And he fought that disease He refused to give in He stayed open to the possibility that nothing is quite the way they say it is They told him he had three years to live Then Hawking defied them Unstoppable Don’t believe in what they tell you They don’t know everything You have strength within And they don’t want you to find it You can decide how you live See with the eye of the hawk Looking into the black sun With the eye of the hawk He defied everyone 10. Every Storm Ends
Your heart will heal
And your tears will dry Every storm ends When you look back Everything you see Will be what you have survived Some people give up on themselves Waiting for the end Slowly they just die Some people don’t admit defeat Making their own wings They learn how to fly There will be storms I have to survive Inside my head and inside my heart Times when I feel it’s impossible To find a place I can call home Hold your future There in your own hand Don’t let it go Try to hold on What is broken now can mend and you can grow strong Some people just live in the past Let it drag them down with regrets and pain Some people learn to let things go Hoping for the best they get up again There will be storms I have to survive Inside my head and inside my heart Times when I feel it’s impossible To find a place I can call home Now I just take it one step at a time I’m facing each day and no matter what comes I’m facing up to such a difficult truth I’ve got to face life on my own Your heart will heal And your tears will dry Every storm ends |
