02. On The Wings Of Life Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale
Tied to visions theres something that's bringing you low.
Every morning the bastards are starting their show. I can hear them cry for their lives. but now all is lost here and now. So i'm flying up upon....oh On the wings of life. This is all we could Climb upon, yeah, on the wings of life, till forever is never.....now. Desperate measures have desperate directions indeed. Find the answers to all that we will need. yea. I can tell when you're lying or not. But still all is lost, here and now only fortune alone.... On the wings of life. Still we are climbing higher . yea. On the wings of life, put the test to the fire....yea. That's what i'm gonna do Put the test to you....oh....yea....yea I can hear them cry for their lives. But now all is lost, here and now so i'm flying upon On the wings of life This is all we could climb upon. yea On the wings of life Till forever is never....now...yea On the wings of life still we are climbing higher, yea On the wings of life Put the test to the fire....yea 03. Sons Of Society Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale
Stop arresting my mind, finding the force in my eyes.
No use telling your lies, looking for safety inside. I'm cotrolling me i've got hold of my life. No use holding me steal the blood in my eyes. No use forcing my arm to comply with your greed. Sons of society. You keep me satisfied - you keep me satisfying. Scorned with compliancy no more to satisfy I will comply with you. yea. Formed in silence and war, subtle we move to destroy. Give to you more and more, the massesare set to deploy. Stop consoling me i've got hold of my life. Stop patrolling me stealthe blood in my eyes. No use forcing my arm to comply with your greed. Sons of society. You keep me satisfied - you keep me satisfying. Scorned with compliancy no more to satisfy I will comply with you. yea. Sons of society. You keep me satisfied you keep me satisfying. Scorned with complaincy. No more to satisfy i never will comply with you. Sons of society. You keep me satisfied - you keep me satisfying. Scorned with compliancy no more to satisfy I will comply with you. yea. 04. Twist Of Fate Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale, Mike Flyntz
Feeling trapped i'll soon succumb
The hour strikes i'll turn and run A piece of dream inside my mind. I feel entomed i must remove With depth of reason i should prove give me trust for all is true Only one, i enlist to follow on From the dust all our ashes will be gone That's right. So i travelled on. On into the darkened night. Only you don't turn me down. So i carried on, on into the dark and light. Twist of fate is all i found. yea. As i clean and dress my wound The cast of blood and bone i lose The penchant filtered thru the sky Only fortune my mistake soon to pay for vows i break I'll search for solice deep inside Only one, i enlist to follow on. From the dust, all our ashes will be gone. That's right So i travelled on. On into the darkened night. Only you don't turn me down. So i carried on, on into the dark and light. Twist of fate is all i found. yea. So i travelled on. On into the darkened night. Only you don't turn me down. So i carried on, on into the dark and light. Twist of fate is all i found. yea. 05. Bad Machine Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale
I use my silence as a wall to keep me safe until i fall.
Hide from all uncertainty, that's right. I crept onto your darkened cage Awake all oyur primal rage To find out what you want from me. And so i wait, invision all that i can state, citizens and all are freee yea I'll keep fighting to the end For my innocence defend I've...lost all but everything from the fire. I have seen, bad machine. I'll use my conscience as a guide to change My future you're implied, a bit of some insanity. I strike a match near Kerosene to rid the eyes of fantasy. No i'm never to be seen And so i wait the future's forty years too late Or somewhere there along the way yea I'll keep fighting to the end For my innocence defend I've...lost all but everything from the fire. I have seen, bad machine. And so i wait, the future's forty years Too late, or somwhere there along the way yea. I'll keep fighting to the end For my innocence defend I've...lost all but everything from the fire. I have seen, bad machine. I'll keep fighting to the end For my innocence defend I've...lost all but everything from the fire. I have seen, bad machine. oh bad machine that's what i am yea oh that's right yea 06. Cover Me Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale
Remember, days of the past i see them still.
Forever, baby, lost inside my tortured will This was all i ever wanted to feel. This was all i ever wanted. Baby don't you know. In my eyes i see such misery. It hurts me when you go. Yea how i need to feel you close to me. This was all i ever needed to feel This was all i ever wanted. Cover me, cover me Into the night don't you see i'm all alone. Don't you leave me here alone thoughout the night. Cover me, cover me Into the night, don't you see that i'm alone. Would you leave me here alone throughout the night. You were all i ever wanted to feel darlin. You were all i ever wanted. Cover me, cover me Into the night don't you see i'm all alone. Don't you leave me here alone thoughout the night. Cover me, cover me Into the night, don't you see that i'm alone. Would you leave me here alone throughout the night. 07. Dragonfire Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale, Mike Flyntz
Cross the signs that fool your minds
Let your fear light the way Danger games inside the claims Fathers law to obey One falls all fall death shines in your eye Raise your hands and cry. yea. Dragonfire proud and strong Armore clad diseased an mad From the canyons of hell Climb the wall to desperate calls Killers casting their spell Save thee save thee save all if you can Save your fatherland yea Dragonfire, proud and strong yea Raise your hands to the sky yea. One falls all fall death shines in your eye. Raise your hands and cry yea Dragonfire, proud and strong yea. Dragonfire, proud and strong Look into the eyes the dragon....yea 08. The Law Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mike Flyntz
I been used i been abused for far too long.
I got my mind on lettin go. Seventy years or more i'm paying for my crime. What i've done i just don't know. I did my time behind these wallls. I hear the sound of freedoms call. Running from the law, from the law That's where i'm at baby I took my chance i made my stance once and for all. No more chains to hold me down. I run and hide i will decide to never fall. No more Kings to break my crown Finally free no more to pay. Your battered walls can't make me stay. No more running from the law, from the law From the law, from the law.That's where i'm at now. No more running from the law, from the law, from the law, from the lw Not the man i used to be, one more day i will be free. i'm running so hard oh no that's right. Oh no they ain't never taking me alive baby. That's right 09. Time To Bleed Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale, Pete Perez, Bobby Jarzombek
I've been looking in the mirror, i don't know what i'm tryin to find
I hope in time i see things clearer, yea. I'm prayin' time will clear my mind. Darkened visions in my doorway Throw my heart upon the floor The only lesson that obey. Keep me comin' back for more They say that love is so deceiving, like a picture on the wall. It breaks my heart and leaves me grieving. Gets me ready for my fall. When you cut me and leave me still breathing, leave me in time of need....well save me time to Bleed....save me time to bleed Tearin me up on the inside, you leave me crying out in pain no more good it. Does me to hide, caus all my runnin's been in vain You throw me down while i am sleeping. Stick a knife right in my heart. I can hear you softly creeping, it ain't overtill you start. Then you cut me breathing, leave me in time of need Save me time to bleed You throw me down while i am sleeping, Stick a knife right in my heart, i can hear you softly creeping. It ain't over till you start They say that love is so deceiving, like a picture on the wall. It breaks my heart and leaves me grieving Gets me ready for my fall, when you cut me and leave me still breathing Leave me in time of need Well save me time, save me time To bleed...ha....save me time to bleed Time to bleed...save me time to bleed 10. Queen Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mark Reale
Around midnight he locked in tight to his frustrations, she told her tales
With all she could, that's right. He wasn't half as good at cold manitpulation, But he just listened as he should yea. You don't know, but it will show. you'll make a better man of me. Queen, it seems you hold my heart within your hands Queen, i mean you make me sorry, but you don't know. Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show. But you won't let me go. She played hist heart she played his mind with every finger. Untill he finally lost his soul yea. He said a thousand times her captive rhythms still linger. But she just crucified him cold You don't know, but it will show, you'll make a better man of me. Queen, it seems you hold my heart within your hands Queen, i mean you make me sorry, but you don't know. Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show. But you won't let me go. Queen, it seems you hold my heart within your hands. Queen, i mean you make me sorry baby but you don't know. yeah Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show but you won't let me go. Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show. But you won't let me go won't let me go baby. Feels like you're tearin' me apart baby Oh you made me bleed and just or show baby. 11. Somewhere Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Pete Perez
The clouds were gathering,
the sun moved out of sight. Then came the rain. Outside the city line Into the darkened night He came to claim Into another town the people he could see He could kill with a look from his eyes. He is looking for you he is lookig for me. Upon his devil horse his figure slips away He hides from light A phantom magic man from mountains black an grey He rides with might Another circus show another broken ride He could fly like a bird in the air He is coming for you he is coming for me. Somewhere tomorrow. Somewhere today. From fields of sorrow Through winds of change Somewhere he'll find you , to steal your soul His eyes disguised to , conceal his goal Another circus show Another broken ride. He could kill with a look from his eyes He is coming for you He is coming for me Somewhere tomorrow. Somewhere today. From fields of sorrow Through winds of change Somewhere he'll find you , to steal your soul His eyes disguised to , conceal his goal 12. Promises Music & lyrics by Mike DiMeo, Mike Flyntz
I've been fighting this war for so long.
Tell me why its not over. With inclinations our leaders are wrong. There they are the're controlling our lives. Still i'll fight. We have fought through the sun and the moon. Facing tyrants and soldiers. We stumbled from glory to doom. Blood of men on my shoulders. It's true, what you do. Listen. I believe, i believe in the things they said. Your promises, no more promises. Sons and brothers they die side by side Not a soul in sedition. From the gallows to streets of versailles Now we live in submission now me, oh i'm free. I believe, i believe in the things they said. Your promises, i believe, i believed in the things they said, your promises. I believe, i believed in the things they said. Your promises, oh i believe, yea. I believed in the things they said, your promises. Yea i believed in the things they said, oh oh promises. |
