If I Go Away
by Savatage Somewhere on that long lonely road We all stand alone Looking for clues From our different views In the dark I've called out your name It echoes in vain Over again In an empty room If I go away What would still remain of me The ghost within your eyes The whisper in your sighs You see Believe And I'm always there Staring down a long empty hall Pictures on walls All with your name But it's not the same Searching for the chord I can't hear Been searching for years It's somewhere inside But it's well disguised If I go away What would still remain of me The ghost within your eyes The whisper in your sighs You see Believe And I'm always there Someday I'll take a chance You find them where you can They tend to slip away Those doors to yesterday Forever is a long time they say Maybe some day I'll meet you there If you've time to spare Tell me then Where I can go Where they won't know Who I have been Can we start again And if I go away What would still remain of me The ghost within your eyes The whisper in your sighs You see Believe And I'm always there |

Beyond the skies, rising so high
Set a course for the unknown But I believe there's life out there Somehow we'll find it Countdown begins Our ship will soon launch On its perilous flight to the stars A civilised race, on some distant world We'll find you wherever they are I believe we'll find a new world Can't you see we cannot return? Systems are go as we leave behind A planet that's doomed to end Nuclear wars, the polluted seas Doomsday begins its descent Where do we go? What'll we find? Is there life? Other than mine? I believe For two thousand years we sought and we searched The galaxy's black holes in space Then on the day of 3013 we came upon a race I believe we can survive on this sphere Plotting a course to enter the stratosphere We're finally here, can we survive? A cryosphere I hope there's life I believe We land the ship on a green barren plain Once outside, from a box the voice came: Welcome to Earth May we ask who you are? Our race is called Man The planet is done, done, done, done, done, done, done! Planet is doomed Hands on the moon Forget the tune, yeah Hands of the moon Strike-out at two! Forget the blue! |

She's not what she seems
Just a vision in my dreams I wonder why Face to face she appears quite strange Never ever got her name I'm a fool inside Her eyes cried lady in disguise Lady in disguise I knew from the moment I saw her face To the edge of the world I would chase her again And when I'm out walking the town There's never a doubt that she'll be around with another guy Her eyes sighed, lady in disguise Lady in disguise I was captured from the start Bodies touching heart to heart I was holding her for long Then I woke and she was gone Then a voice called from the night I'm still into the night I sat up in my bed Sweat was running off my head This must have been a dream It took me a while, then I realized I still could feel her crystal eyes haunting me I died, lady in disguise Lady in disguise Lady in disguise Why, why |

In circles the winless fall
Head trapped between the wall Sonic blast right through their ears Iron curtain the mighty will fall Visions on a crystal ball Sorry tales of days gone past Living for the night Living for the night Just a thought Before your mind is lost Do you know who you are? Criminal days Life trapped inside a maze And little children can't go out Living for the night Living for the night Out of touch Out of control You watch the metal roll You play the part Just oh so well--AH!! Like a torch Without a flame A pleasure victim of pain You're caught inside And can't get out Living for the night!!! Living for the night!!! Living for the night!!! Living for the night!!! Living for the night!!! |

Ow! My legs are breakin', can't take no more
Six days in a haze, locked behind a door Searchlight on my trail, I hear the sirens wail Footsteps close behind, they're after me now Moonlight lights the way to a clearing up ahead ____light through the trees, the hunter flees again How long can I run? I feel it's just begun Nowhere left to hide, they're gaining on me Oh, on the run, oh, on the run, run, run I can't run anymore, they move this way too fast Finally caught up to me, a victim of my past I feel them closing in, the bad guy just didn't win I will not go back, I'm still on the run Oh, on the run, oh, on the run, run, run, run, run, run |

Far, far away.
I'd like to touch you, but you're not here today Now's the time I need you most, I think about the days we lost Baby, I need you here. I'm out on the streets alone tonight Lookin' for you, it don't seem right Baby, don't you know I'm fallin' apart How could you break my heart? Walking down the avenues, the ones I would walk with you It's funny how the nights last so long And with the dawn, comes another day Why won't you come, baby? Can't you see I can't hold on? I'm out on the streets again tonight Lookin' for you, it don't seem right Baby, don't you know I'm fallin' apart How could you break my heart? And so, comes another day My life without you seems to slip away I'm holding back the tears no more I feel like I'm locked behind these doors Will you walk with me someday? I'm out on the streets alone tonight Lookin' for you, it don't seem right Baby, don't you know I'm fallin' apart How could you break my heart? |

He's chasing you down the alleys of death
Where many have died, and where you will breathe your final breath Your pulse starts to quicken, blood runs to your head You start to feel sick by the thought of becomin dead Scream murder, he's coming for you Blade in his hand, he knows what to do, yeah Scream murder, what can you do? No one to help, it's just him and you He brings harm to your senses of fear A feeling that will not disappear, as the bells of midnight toll Where can you run to? Where can you hide? This feeling has built up inside He's gonna take it all away!!!!!! How his alley resembles the morgue Can you hear the pounding of the doors? That is his house, he's gonna get you today Scream murder! The last words you say Scream murder, he's coming for you Blade in his hand, he knows what to do, yeah. Scream murder, what can you do? No one to help, it's just him and you H's gonna get you! Alright!! No!!!!!!! No!!!!!! Get away!!!!!!!!! No!!!!!!! No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No!!!!!!!!! |

On the sea
They heard the voices sing Through the storm The island's closing in They'd heard tales Of lives lost at sea Deserted beach just beyond their reach You're approaching the island of the Sirens Sirens Hungry for man tonight Sirens Sirens Claiming the sailors' lives Nine men made it to a shore A night of terror Lies neatly in store Who are those women? Are they real? Is this just a crazy dream? You're approaching the island of the Sirens Sirens Hungry for flesh tonight Sirens Sirens Claiming the sailors' lives Terror happens quickly Remains till the sailors are gone They vanished in the night Sirens singing their song Whoa -- till they're gone... ALL RIGHT!! |

Chills rattle through my bones The way she looks it shocks me Standing at the door that leads below There's a light at the end of the hall Can I reach it before I fall She's unusual So unusual In a daze I turn to run A thousand steps to her arms Does she really want to touch me I see it in her eyes See it in her eyes No I follow through very slowly When I get there she's gone She's unusual So unusual I know some things can't be right Ghostly visions of delight She tells me of a better life The way she looks it blows my mind silhouette cast in time Temptress of the night is calling me Does she really want to touch me I can see it in her eyes Snakes of fire hypnotize her Seductress of lost lives There's a light at the end of the hall CAn I reach it before I fall She's unusual So unusual She's unusual So unusual |

A solitude of horror in his hours off guard
Nature took her hideous revenge Out of the black abyss came the creeping madness that was his other self Hyde, Hyde A good man to evil From the potion on the table Sampled by mistake But now it's far too late A cause for alarm He can do you harm, Man into beast Prepares for his feast Hyde, Hyde Stalking the neon city Standing in the shadow's Crimes of wrong nature on the twisted mind Black satin cape Eyes of insane fire Lurking in the darkness A killer on permanent hire For some he's but a tale For others just a legend Madness, myth and magic Worth a warning mention The change has taken place Running from mankind He may be after you In his other state of mind Standing in the shadows Stalking the neon city Crimes of wrong nature on the twisted mind So if you care to wander In a chemical adventure It might be a mistake The one you shouldn't make. |

I'm out on the streets alone tonight Lookin' for you, it don't seem right Baby, don't you know I'm fallin' apart How could you break my heart? |

In a land caught between time and space Where the books of life lay Within this castle of stone The mountain king roams All alone in here But he's not the only one Lost inside Forever hidden from the sun Madness reigns In the hall of the mountain king Oh yeah His deep Dark eyes keep watch on his kingdom And mysteries that sleep safe inside His hall His towers of stone Shall not be overthrown For eternity They are guarded by the king Insanity and the power that it brings Madness reigns In the hall of the mountain king Oh yeah Come with me Stay close by my side As the darkness of night closes in Don't fear In the thunder, it roars When the mountain king calls all his children home To where I hid him we must run Refuge here But I was forever on the run Madness reigns, my friends...

Born into a world of hatred
Nothing to live for What started with a simple match Turned into something more The pain I felt inside my head Came on my day of birth Now the time has come for me To burn the planet earth [Chorus] I can feel the fire Burning inside of me The powers at my fingers Waiting you shall see Burn! Ignite the population Burn! Causing mass cremation Burn! Feel no shame or pity Burn! Apocalyptic city Years have passed as I stood still To plan the final blow I'll make the town go up in flames A hellish death they'll know As I pour on the gasoline I listen deep inside I hear the cries of all my victims Nowhere to run or hide [Chorus] Now my great assault is over And my life is done Staring at my great infernos Was my only fun So I leave you with my tale Here my conscious falls Victim of myself So now I'll end it all [Chorus] |

To play the evil tarot cards To find out what our fate will bring us Before the war Approaching now the hour of tiamat Evil feeling in the air The chosen wait impatiently To find the rituals of power Come out of the fire Making the legacy known Predicted by the past Takes its toll at last Now knowing when it strikes The endless fueding shows its fate The people are all shocked with fright They know the end is coming near It`s time to fight The revolution holds on strong The armies have all met their match Entire world up in arms Destruction sees the spirits of anger Come up from the gallows Conjured my demons appear Summoned to my cast, prey this deadly mass Takin?by the fire you fail The world became a vast wasteland Survivors turn to cannibals Killing everything in sight Warfare tonight The armies are all closing in The populations getting small Feelings are as cold as ice Survival names its price Starting to burn The rape and violence grows high A kingdom will rise To rule with contempt They will surprise Kill and repent The weakness in armies "Won큧 die!!!" Leaving now the house of seance Speculating destiny Wonder if the cards were true Will wait to find out and will wait to see |

Living my life on borrowed time
Watching my dreams disappear My fists slowly clench as my mind seeks control My body trembles in fear Life was looking up for me when I left home It seems like yesterday Now I'll never go back there again Here is where I'll stay Nobody can hear you scream or shout Once you're in, you won't come out You will never see the light of day I'm the hunter, you're my prey ! Watching the clash between the forces below >From up in the planes we're flying Survivors are taken as prisoners of war The others are slowly dying I shiver as we strap on our parachutes We line up to jump out the doors We're already there and there's no turning back I fall to the scene of the war Nobody can hear you scream or shout Once you're in, you won't come out You will never see the light of day I'm the hunter, you're my prey ! You can see me, flying right over your head Try to stop me, you can't cause your armies are dead To cross the blood red trenches of the dead below Do or die, Hell's the place you'll go Living my life on borrowed time Watching my dreams disappear My fists slowly clench as my mind seeks control My body trembles in fear Life was looking up for me when I left home It seems like yesterday Now I'll never go back there again Here is where I'll stay Nobody can hear you scream or shout Once you're in, you won't come out You will never see the light of day I'm the hunter, you're my prey ! |

Shrieks of terror through the night Souls of old band to hold The meeting for the haunting night Headless ghosts fill the halls Shadow plays of grief and pain Phantom speaks his final note Tenants of the castle slain Black cats will appear As the witching hour nears Lost souls will all be told For haunting we will go! See their dreams come to life Under pressure holding tight Feel the cold grabbing hold To feed you to the haunting night Evil witch black as pitch Starts a fire with a flinch Burning fire rising higher Making music like a choir Children of the night They큥e howling at black skies The ruthless calls within For the haunting now begins Stay away from the shining light Can큧 seem to find the answer there Bring back the terror in the night That we all share tonight Hear the screams, screams of fright Shrieks of terror through the night Souls of old band to hold The meeting for the haunting Headless ghosts fill the halls Shadow plays of grief and pain Phantom speaks his final note Tenants of the castle slain Black cats will appear As the witching hour nears Lost souls will all be told For haunting we will go! |

Where death has reared itself a throne We're all the good, the bad The worst and the best And where they land is their eternal rest Foul plays of passion At twilight's dim In joy of woe, of good and sin Winds of storm and fates overcast Darkly my presence Is now your past Join the insanity Or die as you fall Into the pit! The mass production And the killing of all Into the pit! The future screams for help Are fading away Into the pit! The world tomorrow Will it die for today? Into the pit! So in the sad, silent watches of night The lonely pathway envisions my sight Echoes of laughter And boundless cries Son here I wander under infinite skies Join the insanity Or die as you fall Into the pit! The mass production And the killing of all Into the pit! The future screams for help Are fading away Into the pit! The world tomorrow Will it die for today? Into the pit! |

In days of old
When the books were untold Speak of a world crushed by sin. "The people will mourn of a war to be born" Nobody would listen to him. Think back in time When the future you find Is so faint that it's too hard to see. Don't disavow his word For the truth must be heard Cause the preacher tells visions he sees. In 1906 Like the future predicts The city will crumble to the bay Then what's in store When the worlds go to war? Peace will have come another day Then came the one In the year of '41 Warfare would light up the sky He beckoned the call Of the future for all Blinded by what's in his eyes In days of old When the books were untold Speak of a world crushed by sin. "The people will mourn of a war to be born" Nobody would listen to him. Think back in time When the future you find Is so faint that it's too hard to see.

Starts to drop to her knees Gazing with an appetite Licks her lips in sheer delight She's one of a kind A sight for sore eyes It's all the needs to be happy I bet she never knew It would taste so good No she's in love I knew she's in love Oh no she's in love Oh yeah she's in love She just loves to please Kiss of life her specialty Oh how well she knows Just how to make it grow She's one of a kind A sight for sore eyes It's all she needs to be happy No she's in love I knew she's in love Oh no she's in love Oh yeah she's in love |

Standing alone in a dream
Where nothing is real But oh how real it feels There were times I lost my way I was alone, lost in a haze Where are you now I'll find you somehow And do I stand alone Like a fool out in the rain Hanging on somehow To an ancient vow Where there's nothing left to gain And do you know How it feels inside To be all alone A fool and his pride Scars are the wounds that we show Time only heals If you're letting go Many right I'd lay awake Tossing and turning till daybreak Where are you now I'll find you somehow In a summer's rain [4 times] Sometimes you got to believe Beyond yesterday I'm gonna find my way In the summer's rain |

Oh yeah
In distant ages long ago Before the birth of Christ Lived a race trapped in soul Terror on the rise United beyond the storm They ruled the astral plane No one could stop them They wouldn't fall In a while they would soon reign A step beyond the grave Visions so insane They opened the gates of Hell Calling, Calling Unholy light is calling Faster, faster Prelude for disaster Get straight But no Here's your prize Oh yeah They're unholy Raging spirits kept from the light Enslaved in worlds of doom Marching armies to the darker side The devil's black platoon Torches raised no mercy Victory was theirs Such was life In the unholy years Step beyond the grave A vision so insane They opened the gates of Hell Calling, Calling The lonely night is calling Faster, faster Prelude for disaster Get straight But no Here's your prize Oh yeah The unholy Oh yeah They're unholy They're unholy No Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy Unholy |

Thinking about yesterday
And how my life used to be Now I'm locked inside this place I'm a schizophrenic case All the faces I now see Never show a sign of glee Every night we start to bustle It's time to do the Thorazine shuffle It's the Thorazine shuffle Everyday half past four They push my food through the door Every night right at eight They put me back into my straight All the paintings I have made They look kind of strange Every night we start to hustle It's time to do the Thorazine shuffle It's the Thorazine shuffle |

When The Crowds Are Gone
by Savatage I don't know where the years have gone Memories can only last so long Like faded photographs, forgotten songs And the things I never knew When the skin is thin, the heart shows through Please believe me what I tell you is true Where's the lights, turn 'em on again One more night to believe and then Another note for my requiem A memory to carry on The story's over when the crowds have gone All my friends have been crucified Made life a long suicide true Guess we never figured out the rules But I'm still alive, my fingers feel Gonna play on till the final reel's through And read the credits from a different view Where's the lights, turn 'em on again One more night to believe and then Another note for my requiem A memory to carry on The story's over when the crowds have gone When the crowds are gone When the crowds are gone And I'm all alone Playing the saddest song Now that the lights are gone Turn them on again One more time for me my friend Turn 'em on again I never wanted to know Never wanted to see I wasted my time Till time wasted me Never wanted to go Always wanted to stay 'Cause the persons I am Are the parts that I play So I plot and I plan Hope and I scheme To the lure of a night Filled with unfinished dreams I'm holding on tight To a world gone astray As they charge me for years I can no longer pay Turn 'em on again (repeat) I never wanted to know Never wanted to see I wasted my time Till time wasted me I Never wanted to go Always wanted to stay 'Cause the persons I am Are the parts that I play The parts I play And the light Turn then off my friend And the ghosts Well just let them in Cause in the dark It's easier to see |

In regards to the nature used with pacts of magic
Spirits from te vastly deep Pespond the calls from their broken silence. Make sure you reach does not exceed your grasp All that is to be done before you act In a pact of invoking spirits from the past Have you lost your mind The dark souls of time Ending life! Ending life! They see you calling out their names and getting ready Cat in darkness shouding near Trough your virtued youth they'll strike a deal What's to obtain if no pain no gain But to sell your soul you must be insane Wrote your name in blood and then they came You're as good as dead Te lost souls of time Envy life! Envy life! Life !!! Have you lost your mind The dark souls of time Ending life! You're as good as dead Te lost souls of time Envy life! Come on down to the house of pain You ear tem calling Shouting out their names in vain. Envy life! In regards to the nature used with pacts of magic Spirits from te vastly deep Pespond the calls from their broken silence. Make sure you reach does not exceed your grasp All that is to be done before you act In a pact of invoking spirits from the past You're as good as dead Te lost souls of time Envy life! Envy life!

Fools the ones who stray, the raw forest burns away know what to believe, this is the air we breathe so the world we know is dying slow in south america flames are burning down, all the trees to the ground Time is running low, we can't stay no more wealth these people see, fight for eternity lies they believe paid by the government There on! It lingers on and they don't even care if they....... Seal the planet's fate crimes they perpetrate wasting precious land it's time to take a stand Our only hope to breathe again to stop the madness closing in what will we do when all is lost environmental holocaust Foes, these people go, someone destroyed their home plagued with disease, left praying on their knees laws protect the land, social justice in demand smoke it fills the air into the atmosphere Now it's time to see a cycle of a tragedy On! It lingers on, and they don't even care if they...... Seal the planet's fate crimes they perpetrate wasting precious land it's time to take a stand Our only hope to breathe again to stop the madness closing in what will we do when all is lost environmental holocaust |

You wanted money, you wanted fame,
You broke the rules before you know the game Bounds tearing you up like a knife Wis it was the end of your life, it's a nightmare Going down that road on account of you No escape from the things you put me through I don't know, I don't care, I can't go anywhere, It's a nightmare coming back to you! Don't wanna die, just wanna live! I've got stop taking what they give So many roads moving all around I only see the one going down it's a nightmare Going down the road on account of you No escape from the things you put me through I don't know, I don't care, I can't go anywhere it's a nightmare Coming back to you! We got to fight, we got to try When all is gone we'll know the reason why To kill the enemy we will win the wars To find the place our life was before, it's a nightmare Going down that road on account of you No escape from the things you put me through I don't know, I don't care, I can't go anywhere It's a nightmare coming back to you!.. to you!.. to you!.. |

Bold is the one who dares to say what he feels
Renegation man, to one he yeilds The bleeding hearts and empty minds, hiding words they fear Blind is the one who censors what we see and hear Come into my world and take a journey with me Paint me a portait now, of the things you see Men are poor and lost in war of ideology No solution will prevail unless we can be Free on anger, free of pain Free of hatred that we obtain Tell me what this place was meant to be Can you see? Can you see what it does to me? Can you hear? Can you red? Can you see what it did to me! Totalitarians in a Perilous Nation Forcing through control turns, to desolation Listen to the leader speak, he's your only friend Take a stand in the motherland, take it to the end Say now what you will, before they make it illegal Time to draw the line, between the bad and the evil Distant times had friendly rules, became its deadliest foe We have heard it all before, the morals come and go Men are poor and lost in war of ideology No solution will prevail unless we can be Free on anger, free of pain Free of hatred that we obtain Tell me what this place was meant to be Free on anger, free of pain Free of hatred that we obtain Tell me what this place was meant to be Can you see? Can you see what it does to me? Can you hear? Can you red? Can you see what it did to me, can you hear? Can you read? Can you see what it did to me Can you hear? Can you read? Can you see what it did to me... |

The day's vanished in the night, soon the children pray
Pray themselves alone, te hate build from their pride You can't take away, can't take what they own! The eyes watching from the sky, guides them throug the haze Calling far away, the rain is black as black, black as night Oh let them pray! False sense of pride, satisfies There's no reason for suicide Use your mind, and hope to find Find the meaning of existence... The cry's answers wonder why, why it's time to die Time to die alone, cause I'm wasting too much time Wandering down the line reason why I go my own! False sense of pride, satisfies There's no reason for suicide Use your mind, and hope to find Find the meaning of existence... |

I'm not one to say
Where my feelings are going when they wither away I pray to see another day My heart's feeling like a needle lost in the hay Restrained to meet again My friend do you think that we ever will I know we are free... The games are played with your life on the line Some lose, you win if you keep on trying I don't mind doing time, I'm happier being alive Now I know the means to my opression were all lies The only truth is your own most sacred lesson I've ever learned I know we are free... I've been robbed, I've been fooled I intend now to make my own rules Dagger's edge cut the line, I've been down that road too many times What's to fear, fear no more Show my conscience what fears's for Now I know this is so real What's done is done so do as you will! I'm keeping alive! Go on, no don't look back Just realize where you've gone Where are you going to, no lifes not done with you You're only just begun, to live your life! for you... |

Yeah! The way I feel, seems to me to be so real
So sick and tired you know just how I feel Cops they dress in black, they bid their lives The bribes they stack, so sick and tired Of the same old this and that The time is coming, it's too soon I can't quite tell I don't know, I think my world has gone to hell The time is coming, life it spins just like a wheel I dont know, that's the way that it makes me feel! The man I most resent You might know him through the goverment He'll tax our lives the money's spent He's just the president!!! The land of liberty for all mankind and all to see What's the use, laws a conspirasy The time is coming, it's too soon I can't quite tell I don't know, I think my world has gone to hell The time is coming, life it spins just like a wheel I dont know, that's the way that it makes me feel! Searching for answers to make life complete No need to searc for more questions There for you to see! The wars that we must fight You dodge the draft before you drive So sick and tired, why can't they realise The rights they sympathise So sick and tried, why can't we live our lives The time is coming, it's too soon I can't quite tell I don't know, I think my world has gone to hell The time is coming, life it spins just like a wheel I dont know, that's the way that it makes me feel! |

Life as we know,Is full of gloomOppress the massesWe'll lead to our doomWe want the rightTo live or dieCan't take awayWhat we feel insideLike empty shadows,Afflict our brainsEnvision dreamsJust to ease the painThere's more to lifeThat to satisfyI ask myselfFor the reason why.If it were my wayI'd deliver us from this hellIf it were my way.If ever there comes a dayRenovations blown awayRealize what we've thrown awayIs there no endTo this endless warThe fear of manIn now what's in store.We look at life as a memoryLong live the dreamsThat they took from me.If it were my wayI'd deliver us from this hellIf it were my way.

Shadows glow from the full moonlight
Hear clouds cry, it's so insane Souls hold on to the key of life See how it's bleeding from the pain When will they open their eyes Stop to face our demise It's live or die Who am I? Face in the sky Walk with me, my friend to a darkness place Welcome down to the abyss Caught between two worlds with no advocate The legion's armyHolds on to your fate When will they open their eyes Stop to face our demise It's live or dieWho am I?Face in the sky Screams from the night Seems to intensify As the air sifts silent through Ghouls crowded in the clouds On a misty night Guarding secretMan has brought to you When will they open their eyes Stop to face our demise It's live or dieWho am I?Face in the sky |

Hail to the new leader now
Ruler of this land with plans that follow to demonstrate Fear the blackened band So horrid and deathly true Dishonest and powermad Unspoken, sealed fate Bursting to desolate Chorus: His love to hate He'll murder souls like me and you But along the way He'll have to dwell in his own hell. Clear the streets See them marching while columns take a stand Time provoked, their mirror of hatred with dark uncanny plans to take out and follow through Just following their orders with death rates and death's toll Those poor unfortunate souls Chorus Twisting and turning through the mazes in your head But in a time like this you're better off dead The time has come now Put up or shut down The feelings that you have were lost and never found Chorus |

Pitch your reverend path This is the path you paved What you will find is life's only way There's no looking back There must be a better way Lightning skies Prayers from an open grave A dead man's eyes Must be a dead man's day Black skies fade to a shadow grey The darkness is so deep Prayers for the light of the day What you will find is life's only way There's no looking back back to a better way Lightning skies Prayers from an open grave A dead man's eyes Must be a dead man's day that leads to one man's fate There ain't no better way to die Fate, there's no compromise Hate leads to suicide Trapped in a crystal haze Hail to a dead man's day Time is but a passageway trying to believe your life was sanity A matter of time is all that you need Life's not coming back back to those better days Lightning skies Prayers from an open grave A dead man's eyes Must be a dead man's day |
