Death comes sweeping through the hallway
Like a lady's dress Death comes driving down the highway In its Sunday best A fire of unknown origin Took my baby away A fire of unknown origin Took my baby away Swept her up and off my wavelength Swallowed her up Like the ocean in a fire So thick and grey A fire of unknown origin Took my baby away A fire of unknown origin Took my baby away Death comes driving I can't do nothing Death goes There must be something There must be something That remains There must be something There must be something A fire of unknown origin Took my baby away A fire of unknown origin Took my baby Took my baby away |

Home in the valley
Home in the city Home isn't pretty Ain't no home for me Home in the darkness Home on the highway Home isn't my way Home I'll never be Burn out the day Burn out the night I can't see no reason to put up a fight I'm living for givin' the devil his due And I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you Time is the essence Time is the season Time ain't no reason Got no time to slow Time everlasting Time to play B-sides Time ain't on my side Time I'll never know Burn out the day Burn out the night I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong and what's right I've seen suns that were freezing and lives that were through But I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you Burn out the day Burn out the night I can't see no reason to put up a fight I'm living for givin' the devil his due And I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you And I'm burnin', I'm burnin', I'm burnin' for you |

You see me now, a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
I've been living on the edge so long Where the winds of limbo roar And I'm young enough to look at And far too old to see All the scars are on the inside I'm not sure if there's anything left of me Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it It's time we had some leave We've been living in the flames We've been eating up our brains Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on You ask me why I'm weary Why I can't speak to you You blame me for my silence Say it's time I changed and grew But the war's still going on, dear And there's no end that I know And I can't say I'm forever I can't say if we're ever gonna be free Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it It's time we had some leave We've been living in the flames We've been eating up our brains Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on You see me now a veteran Of a thousand psychic wars My energy's spent at last And my armor is destroyed I have used up all my weapons And I'm helpless and bereaved Wounds are all I'm made of Did I hear you say that this is victory? Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it Send me to the rear Where the tides of madness swell And been sliding into Hell Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on Don't let these shakes go on Don't let these shakes go on |

There walked a lonely man
Silent, mute, the only man Not knowing how not knowing why Was he the sole survivor Why should he be alive Breathing still while others died? And the only question Why was he the sole survivor? Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Wind blew across the sand He stood alone, he had no plan And with the last rays of the sun He screamed aloud began to run In his tears he sees his face "I am the end of the human race When I'm gone there'll be no trace For I'm the sole survivor" Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night One night when years had passed The sky shook from a fiery blast And there a starship, saved at last To come rescue this survivor They beckoned him inside But only man, he would not ride Instead he found a place to hide For he's the sole survivor Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night |

Into the whirlpool
Where matter vanishes Degenerate star Arm of Orion An iron sun The forbidden circle Anti-matter is the Black horizon CHORUS Heavy metal Black and silver Fallen matter Of the Sun Pours itself Into a place Where there was never Never one By starlight The heaviest will rise up Magnetic mirror Scattered bodies slow All chaos of matter River of fire A night sea crossing The cosmic fluid flows CHORUS Fallen matter From the cross Freedom That was never lost Beyond being Will be coming Beyond time Space and control Direction (starlight) Creation (starbright) Foundation (we forged the Einstein bridge tonight) Spans a river (starlight) We call time (starbright) World (light of darkness) Without end (light of light) Heavy metal Black and silver Fallen matter Of the Sun Pours itself Into a place Where there was never, never, never Never one |

See them standing in the foothills
Waiting for the kill On wings of fear the terror sweeps Into the city beat CHORUS To defend This is the pact But when life's scorned And damage done To avenge This is the pact On wings of vengeance Taarna finds them Death for barbarians CHORUS Flying over the oasis She is captured And they pull her down Feeling pain (ah) From the air (ah) Close my eyes (ah) And I am there (ah) I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark pit "Pull him down," the soldier said "I'll put an arrow in his head" But the bird flew off instead To save his master, on his back she fled Her time has come Riding her bird high in the saddle She gets her chance to fulfill the pact now As their leader swoops from the clouds She sticks him with her sword then she throws him down The enemy shrivel and die The enemy shrivel and die CHORUS |

What's that in the corner?
It's too dark to see What's that noise I'm hearing Who's that calling me? Long ago and far away I heard your voice But once I heard you sing your song I had no choice Terror took control it told me what to say And let me loose I fear I've finally found a way After dark, I see you After dark, I feel you After dark, I want you After dark, I need you Of age there is no question Death's shadow is undone We only need each other In shelter from the sun Long ago and far away I heard your voice But once I heard you sing your song I had no choice Terror took control it told me what to say And let me loose I fear I've finally found a way After dark, I need you After dark, I want you After dark, I feel you After dark, I see you There's no turning back now My fate is traced in blood I've tasted true salvation Your power is my drug Long ago and far away I heard your voice But once I heard you sing your song I had no choice Terror took control it told me what to say And let me loose I fear I've finally found a way After dark, I need you After dark, I want you After dark, I feel you After dark, I see you After dark, I touch you After dark, I do! After dark After dark After dark |
