Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle

Concentrate!
I'm your contact link across the great divide
Many voices in my ear
Hold on I think there's something coming through
From the other side. It's for all those who believe
The chain is stronger if the lifeline is unbroken
So beware the presence of The Unexpected Guest

Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle

Unexplained
Many things we thought were lost may come to light
On a higher plain in the spirit world
Where only a few of us possess the second sight
Now the messenger awaits
The chain is stronger if the lifeline is unbroken
So beware the presence of The Unexpected Guest

Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle must keep going on and on.

But wait
Is there one amongst us here who disbelieves?
A stranger to the sign
Take care, for all the things you fear
May be revealed
Within the forces of the night
The chain is stronger if the lifeline is unbroken
So beware the presence of The Unexpected Guest

Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle
Don't break the circle
The circle must keep going on and on
The circle must keep going on and on

Take your place in the circle
Watch the mystery unwind
One cup of your lifeblood
Two parts of your mind
Thirteen faceless disciples
In a room froze with fear
Summoned there by the master
Then he appears

Under the spell
The mark of the Beast is upon you now
Under the spell
The mark of the Beast. You must serve him well.
Under the spell

Dances at midnight
Naked but for the mask
Feasting Heaven's destruction. The spell has been cast
The power is total
Eclipse of the Son
Evil forces are strongest
His will to be done

Under the spell
The mark of the Beast is upon you now
Under the spell
The mark of the Beast. You must serve him well.
Under the spell

We all bear witness
To the ritual of life
While some choose to follow
The shadows of night
Forever banished in darkness
For those who've taken the vow
These things are of your own doing
You'll pay for it now

Under the spell
The mark of the Beast is upon you now
Under the spell
The mark of the Beast. You must serve him well.
Under the spell

Total Possession. I think he's possessed
Total Possession.

Don't say a word, best left to himself now
This needs a man of the cloth
Heard him speaking in tongues not of this world
Can't bear to look at him now
It seems a change came overnight
One moment a man, in madness and rage
Became Total Possession

Total Possession. I think he's possessed
A fire in his eyes tell you
He's not like the rest
Total possession. He's out on his own
A crazed look of an insane man.

A twisted face, a tormented victim
Someone's moving upstairs
A life leaks away under the shadows
There's no hope for him now
A tortured soul lies bleeding
Oh Father in Heaven where are you now?
It's Total Possession


Total Possession. I think he's possessed
A fire in his eyes tell you
He's not like the rest
Total possession. He's out on his own
A crazed look of an insane man.
In his own world

It seems a change came overnight
One moment a man, in madness and rage
Became Total Possession

Total Possession. I think he's possessed
A fire in his eyes tell you
He's not like the rest
Total Possession. He's out on his own
A crazed look of an insane man.
In his own world

Somewhere inside a raging storm
Is waiting to be free
The balance hangs on one slim thread
A twisted nerve could blow it
All around the heat is on
Confusion. Confusion
A finger hitches on a trigger
Another mark of the gun

It's a sign of a madman
Losing his control
It's a sign of a madman
Losing everything

An insane act where genius reigned
The traitor came to light
He swore you were the chosen one
Who'd come to take his place
Now it seems you're showing signs
Of stress. Distress
The sentence passed upon yourself
There's no way out of here

It's a sign of a madman
Losing his control
It's a sign of a madman
Losing everything

How does it feel to be alone in there
How does it feel to be alone in there
Nothing is real now you're alone in there
Nothing is real now you're alone in there

You're all alone in a crowded room
Surrounded by your fate
In the grip of all your plans
You didn't even know it
Now the shadows hide the one
Who lies in wait
Looking for a place in history
How many more like you?

It's a sign of a madman
Losing his control
It's a sign of a madman
Losing everything
It's a sign of a madman
Losing his control
It's a sign of a madman
Losing everything

Victim of fortune
Servant of fate
The force that surrounds you
There's no escape

We can't control the will of destiny
Or the course of the stars
Still we journey for the secret of life
To find who we are meant to be
Is this meant to be?
In the end our beginnings we'll see

Victim of fortune
Servant of fate
The force that surrounds you
There's no escape

Too many things can't be explained
How they came to be
With all your cards and crystal prophecies
Can we really see a way
A solution for us all?
Or are we lost forever, always to fall?

Victim of fortune
Servant of fate
The force that surrounds you
There's no escape

There's a gap in the curtain
Through which some people might see
Of that I am certain
The power of predictions
Through visions we're able to see

Meant to be
Is this meant to be?
In the end our beginnings we'll see

Victim of fortune
Servant of fate
The force that surrounds you
There's no escape
You're a Victim

Have we been here before
We all shine on. Shine on

I believe after life the spirit lives on
It's a journey without end
Whatever's precious to you now
Will it stand, stand the test of time?
And all those faces in the crowd
Seem so familiar to you now
And though I've never walked this street before
Somehow I feel, I feel I know it so well

Have we been here before?
We all shine on
Have we been here before?
We all shine on. Shine on

We move between two points in time
And question existence of if all
Is it fact or is it fantasy?
What lies in wait, waiting for us all
And when we leave, will we return again
Only to wear a new disguise?
And while this world, it keeps on turning
Will there be a place where both become one?

Have we been here before?
We all shine on
Have we been here before?
We all shine on

We exist beyond reason
No explanation for it all
We've been searching tor it everywhere
We've done it all before.

Have we been here before?
We all shine on
Have we been here before?
We all shine on

And all those faces in the crowd
Seem so familiar to me now
And though I've never walked this street before
Somehow I feel, I feel I know it so well

Have we been here before?
We all shine on
Have we been here before?
We all shine on and on
Have we been here before?
We all shine one
Have we been here before?
We all shine on and on.

He stares alone at the night
No emotion shown
A glimmer of light
Now and then
Communication is broken down
Contact is lost
Just a machine between him
And his maker

It's a strange institution they call life
A nowhere existence, but who's right?
They gave you a mountain to climb
But left you no will to survive

It hurts to see him now
The way he is
Just a shadow of a man
That I once knew
A restless spirit running wild
Hey you! Hey you always laughed
In the face of disaster

It's a strange institution, they call life
A nowhere existence, but who's right?
They gave you a mountain to climb
They left you no will to survive

There's just a machine between him
And his maker

Take a last shot at the sunrise
See the wheel of fire turn round
There's a thirst that burns within you
A need for something strong
Taking you on your wildest dreams
Leave it all behind
Escaping once more to that twilight time
For the hour has come
No place to run
I'll be there when you crash down

It's all the work of the devil
Now you will serve him well
All your lies and false excuses
You've got it off so well

Can you feel your blood run colder
As your senses start to rise
The D.T.'s taking over you
Joker dances in your eyes
The feeling that you're feeling now
Leaves you with no choice
To take life from the bottle
The Grand Illusion
Your one-man show
Is going down real well

It's all the work of the devil
Now you will serve him well
All the lies and false excuses
You've got it off so well
It's all the work of the devil
To stand another round
When the morning hits you
Like a thief you'll run to ground

Take a last shot at the sunrise

There's a thirst that burns within you
A need for something strong
Taking you on your wildest dreams

No place to run
I'll be there when you crash down

It's all the work of the devil
Now he will serve you well
All the lies and false excuses
You've got if off so well
It's all the work of the devil
To stand another round
When the morning hits you
Like a thief you'll run to ground.

Beyond the Gates of Hell
Between death and life
There's a road few have traveled
A road few survive

Watch out! Beware!
Prepare to run with your life
Watch out! Out there!
For the fool who takes
A look in his eyes
Will be lost to the Master of Time
We're searching for souls
Everyone must be saved

Beyond the Gates of Hell
Between death and life
There's a road few have traveled
A road few survive

Hold on to the light!
There's no way of turning back now
It's not real what you see
It's just a state of your mind
That he holds
They're trying to work it through you
But the time's running out
There's nothing more you can do

Beyond the Gates of Hell
Between death and life
There's a road few have traveled
A road few survive

They're searching for souls
Everyone must be saved
But the time's running out
There's nothing left you can do

Now the spell has been cast
The curse has left its mark
And we await the judgment to be passed
While we look upon each other
The sinner and the saint
The final curtain falls upon our kind

It's too late to pray
For the victims left outside the gates of Hell
What fate awaits them now no-one can tell

Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter from it
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter

As we reach the final chapter
And turn another page
Do we see the writing on the wall?
Is it better to have witnessed this
Or never seen at all
What lies behind the shadow of the night?
You've seen the sign
You're forever on the run from your last rights
You live in fear of The Unexpected Guest

Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter from it
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter

Deliver us  we don't want to go down there
Deliver us  we don't want to go down there

Now the spell has been cast
The curse has left its mark
And we await the judgment to be passed
While we look upon each other
The sinner and the saint
The final curtain falls upon our kind.

It's too late to pray
For the victims left outside the gates of Hell
What fate awaits them now no-one can tell

Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter from it
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter
Deliver us from evil, gimme shelter
