01. Wise As A Serpent

When you think i'm going out
I will rise up again
Gonna rain on your parade
Steal your thunder, make you pray

Wise as a serpent
Hungry like a wolf

All this time i've been away
You'll be joyed, what is mine
Here i am by hand of fate
You damned fool, i pity you

Wise as a serpent
Hungry like a wolf

Wise as a serpent
Hungry like a wolf
Wise as a serpent
Hungry like a wolf

02. Turn The Tide

The sky is crying genocide
Mother nature bleeding dry
Rivers running black with disease
All because of human greed

Take a little time
And look around
What did we do
To our paradise?

I see a black dawn rising
Can we turn the tide?
Is it too late?
Or can we turn the tide?

The children of tomorrow
will be the victims of our crimes
Let's make a change, do what's right
Before we run out of time

Just take a little time
And look around
What did we do
To our paradise?

I see a black dawn rising
Can we turn the tide?
Is it a light?
Is it a light to turn the tide?

Take a little time
And look around
What did we do
To our paradise?

I see a black dawn rising
Can we turn the tide?
Is it too late?
Or can we turn the tide?
Is it too late? Oh

03. Sweet Magic Pain

Call me a sinner, call me a saint, oh
you talked through the wine, wasting my time
You can't provoke me, can't know my mind
Just look around, time to calm down
Time to calm down

Come on, get down
Where do you draw the line
Come on, get real
Living on borrowed time

This is your big thrill
It's dead in the water
How do you feel? Are you for real?
Always seduced me, my sweet magic pain
Hold on tight, turn on the light
Turn on the light

Come on, get down
Where do you draw the line
Come on, get real
Living on borrowed time

The sadness in your eyes
Crawl up between me with a kiss
Look out below, my sweet magic pain
Save yourself while you can
Yeah, yeah

Come on, get down
Where do you draw the line
Come on, get real
Living on borrowed time
Living on borrowed time

You're living on borrowed time
Wasting my time
No, no, no

04. Hello Sorrow

The treasures you've been taking
The mistakes you've been making
You'll do anything for him
With disgust, you play the fool

You dream of tomorrow
I came without sorrow
It's never too late, no
But you know, you know

Hello Misery
Hello Darkness, too
Hello Sorrow

You're very close to confusion
Hard to face the conclusion
Is it really turned in stone
That you wind up alone

You dream of tomorrow
I came without sorrow
It's never too late no
But you know, you know

Hello Misery
Hello Darkness, too
Hello Sorrow

05. One Man's Curse

One Man's Curse
No man's blessing
We ride the quest
Of the raging storm

It's killing me
Gotta get away
If you kill me now
Don't you ask me to stay

Your lips
Begging for sheen
But my jealousy
Speaks as much

Yeah, It's killing me
Gotta get away
If you kill me now
Don't you ask me to stay

I'm tired of fighting
Tired of living a lie
Going through emotions
Twisted devotion
It's no good

How to love the game
When no one wins
Secrets, lies and
Stolen truths

One man's curse
Another man's blessing
We ride the quest
Of the raging storm

It's killing me
Gotta get away
If you kill me now
Just don't you ask me to stay

I'm tired of fighting
Tired of living a lie
Going through emotions
Twisted devotion
It's no good

Come on!

06. Dreamer

Dreamer, dreamer
Like a fool I thought
That I could be
Dream on, dream on
Surely someone
Will understand me

What do I say when I
When I've said too much
I think by now I'm wasting time
I'm going, well I know that I am gone
You are the absence of my mind

Oh Dreamer, dreamer
Like a fool I thought
That I could be
Dream on, oh dream on
Surely someone
Will understand me

Down the wrong way on a one way street
You'd think by now, I would have learned
I'm so little, but I learned only the less
I've only learned to repent

Oh dreamer

What do I say when I
When I've said too much
I think by now I'm wasting time
I'm going, lord I am gone
You are the absence of my mind

Dreamer, Dreamer
All of my life
I've been a dreamer

Dreamer

07. Too Old To Die Young

In a dream I talked to you
Fading image of the man I knew

A neon moon shine as we're wild
Don't leave so soon, my friend
This music is life, is all that I know
And not too old to die young

So much harder to put through
I'm getting older, not any wiser

A neon moon shine as we're wild
Don't leave so soon, my friend
This music is life, is all that I know
And not too old to die young

Our void has been filled
Leave the love to the night
Another passing wine
Searching in the dark

The better I feel today
The worse I feel tomorrow
Always a price to pay
Come drown in my sorrow

Too old to die young
Too old to die young
Too old, too old

08. Kingmaker

I have lived my life alone
And I dwelled upon my throne
Lost in confusion now
Burned by insecurity

Rise above the lies
Now fortune smiles again

Laugh in the face of the enemy
Keeping of the ghost inside
Laugh in the face of the enemy
Leaving all my fears behind

I, I always came in peace
And I found trust in my beliefs
Betrayed by a war for souls
Left this sinking ship for fools

Now I'm here to stay
Prepare for blood today

Laugh in the face of the enemy
Keeping of the ghost inside
Oh, no, no
Laugh in the face of the enemy
Leaving all my fears behind
Leaving all
Leaving all

09. Road To Madness

We've been through good, been through bad
Snarling patience, with demon eyes
The Dragonstone you all dream
Before you're over it, you'll be sold

It's a road to madness
Paid with gold
An ocean of sharpness
Calling your name
Your body won't turn back

The truth lies within, my friend
There's gotta be another way
The Dragonstone you all dream
Before You know it, You'll be sold

It's a road to madness
Paid with gold
I never An ocean of sharpness
Calling your name
Your body won't turn back

10. Dead End Town

Rain keeps on falling
Falling on my head
Rain keeps on falling
Wishing I was dead

Winter's coming
Dragging me down

Walked the streets
A thousand times
Dead end roads in a
Dead end town
What you learned
Only comes out wrong
I wanna live but I don't belong

Rain keeps on falling
Falling on my head
Rain keeps on falling
Wishing I was dead

Winter's coming
Dragging me down
Yeah

Death is calling
In this dead end town

11. Freedom Song

A man of simple visions
I don't ask for much
Just need my freedom
And to not live on my knees

I'm a hard lot to beat
I get back, back on my feet
Life's too short, way too short
To lose my integrity

I pity the fool
That lives by their rules
The wheel keeps turning
On and on, into my place

Let it be known
I'm a free man
Singing my
Freedom song

My truth is in my heart
Never lost track of who I am
No corporative
Caught up in the money game

I pity the fool
That lives by their rules
The wheel keeps turning
On and on, into my place

Let it be known
I'm a free man
Singing my
Freedom song

12. Legends Collapse

Yesterday is all I've known
Rebel in my final glory days
I sold my soul to rock
All my whole now stumble through the haze

And the sun won't shine no more
And the sky a blackened dome
No stars to guide me home
Got no friend but a
Lonely winding road

War resounds as legends fall
Beaten by a twisted laughing clown
All my sins will disappear
Never cared for my fellow men

And the sun won't shine no more
And the sky a blackened dome
No stars to guide me home
I got no friend but a
Lonely winding road
