The Killing Hand
--------------------
I. The Observance
An Angel's kiss now fallen
Descending scarlet cuts the sky
Faded names left on the wall
Honor the fighting leave life to die
Remembered is the sacrifice but
No praisal of blood still flowing
Who were the leaders?
what controlled the Killing Hand
that caused this mourning?
Crossing over...
II. Ancient Renewal
Lowered deep into the sea
Being awaits to cleanse his soul
senses weakening time is still
Motionless by stiffening cold
The wheels race back and
Scorch his mind
Traveling all to find the land
Revelation warms a touch
And now, he will begin to
Understand
III. The Stray Seed
Extended a view to yesterday
Manifestation for none the same
Walking amidst a frightening still
No sound, no smoke, no scorching
Flames
He is risen...
Sipping his poison the raven sings
Yet another to add more bodies fallen
King from below
this one controls
the Killing Hand that caused this mourning.
Is it all over?
Is it all over?
IV. Thorns
Evil genius this secret plan
Mercy dealt with the losing hand
Will he ever fall? Can he end it all?
Our savior must make his stand.
Only a Prophet of
years to come
Wanting mortality I'm all alone
He heard my voice
It was my choice I've
stopped the Killing Hand.
V. Exodus
When I go back again
Will it be the same?
I've stopped the cries
But now they know my name
The sea is calling me
my spirit must return
As I get closer,
was it really worth what I have learned?
I'm in the valley
And the saddened chimes
I hear Race toward the wall to find one more name appears.
No one is left now
my one and only land
I laugh at what I've done
I am the Killing Hand.
Red Dawn Rising
-------------------------
Once again I see the dawn
It burns my eyes and stings like thorns
I must hide till there is
Nothing more to see
Let me see if theres still time
Questions are waiting by the line
I must find the way to get me
Anywhere but here
Is there time?
From the sands of all lost time
Arises a reborn bird of fire
She flies towards the blazing sky and
Greets the dawn
Too many answers still to find
Before we run out of all time
I wish that like the Phoenix
We could rise again
My life goes out like a dying star
The anxious pain behind the dark
If someone else could bear this load
That hurts like the crown of thousand thorns
The red dawn is rising
Sealing the end of our time
The red sun is shining
Burning all that's still alive
Stolen Season
----------------------
But your tears are not mine
Still sailing down on them till the end of time
All your fears still bleeding
Out of your heart down on the ceiling
But you are what you believe in
Come rain or shine in your garden of weeping
still you keep on seeking the celebration of your evening
but Your tears are not mine
I don't care if I die
As long as I can have you by my side
But your tears are not mine
Still sailing down on them till the end of time
All your fears still bleeding
Out of your heart down on the ceiling
But you are what you believe in
Come rain or shine in your garden of weeping
But we keep on seeking the celebration of your evening
but Your tears are not mine
I don't care if I die
As long as I can have you by my side
All forgotten is gone
To sing this lonely song
Things just happen without no reason
Love's a stolen season
Love's a stolen season
but Your tears are not mine
I don't care if I die
As long as I can have you by my side
All forgotten is gone
To sing this lonely song
Things just happen without no reason
Love's a stolen season
baby, love's a stolen season
but Your tears are not mine
I don't care if I die
As long as I can have you...
Endless Sacrifice
---------------------
Cold
Lying in my bed
Staring into darkness
Lost
I hear footsteps overhead
And my thoughts return
Again
Like a child who's run away
And won't be coming back
Time keeps passing by
As night turns into day
I'm so far away
And so alone
I need to see your face
To keep me sane
To make me whole
Try to stay alive
Until I hear your voice
I'm gonna lose my mind
Someone tell me why
I chose this life
This superficial lie
Constant compromise
Endless sacrifice
Pain
It saddens me to know
The helplessness you feel
Your light
Shines on my soul
While a thousand candles
Burn
Outside this barren room
The rain is pouring down
The emptiness inside
Is growing deeper still
You're so far away
And so alone
You long for love's embrace
To keep you sane
To make you whole
Try to stay alive
Until I hear your voice
I'm gonna lose my mind
Someone tell me why
I chose this life
This superficial lie
Constant compromise
Endless sacrifice
Moments wasted
Isolated
Time escaping
Endless sacrifice
Moments wasted
Isolated
Time escaping
Endless sacrifice
Over the distance
We try to make sense
Of surviving together
While living apart
Striving for balance
We rise to the challenge
Of staying connected
In spite of circumstance
All you've forsaken
And all that you've done
So that I could live out
This undying dream
Won't be forgotten
Or taken for granted
I'll always remember
Your endless sacrifice
Moments wasted
Isolated
Time escaping
Endless sacrifice
Moments wasted
Isolated
Time escaping
Endless sacrifice
