Armageddon [Melodic Death Metal]

See the ocean turn to sand
And the sand become a crust
(Let's) ride a moonbeam, you and I
Lit a million years ago
Living in a world they've made
Got you on your knees
To conform and to obey
Time has come to fight!

Under winter skies
I realise
This life is just a dream
A fantasy...

Break the shackles, break the chains
Seize the day my friend
Streets are calling out your name
Beckoning with pleasure
Fly into the sun
Burn your wings and live so free
Chose the dream until you die
To the edge of space and time

Your god failed you
In this moment
Spreading black wings now
Losing yourself
To the thrill of the game
Your dying emotions are feeding the flame

Can't turn back, it's too late to run now
Stand and face your fate
Time to pay with your soul
(You're) caught inside the spell

Spirits lasts
Forever screaming
Into new dimensions
Lurking, crawling
Choking you
Ghost inside your head

Sleppless nights, you're counting the days
We're heading your way
Waiting for the time to let it all out
All that you're holding inside

People who say, you're wasting your time
They'll never understand

Here we come
We'll burn the sun
Together again

Feel the tension, it's building up
Ready to explode
Adrenaline rush as we hit the stage
Let the music take control

We're flying high
The spirit is strong
Together again
You can't hide the feeling inside

You drain my strength... you suck my blood
You're getting to me... like a disease
Can't take a ride... at my expense
Tables have turned - now I call the shots

No stranger to this pain
Feel the stranglehold again
Life's a losing game
We all take what we can

Tell myself it's gonna to be alright
Made up my mind for sure this time
I'm leaving now there's nothing you can do
I'll be OK, once I get out of here

Free...
I've got to be free
You'll see...
Freedom is the key

Now that it's all over and done
Alone again... it's my destiny calling
In control, I'm back on the track
Standing strong... the power of one

Steel blue eyes, so damn cold
Iron hard conviction, tar black soul
She gets around, yes she does...
Ain't no angel in white
Child of sin, raised under neon lights

Claws down my back... hot breath on my neck
Mmmm... She's tightening her grip, around my heart
Got ways to make me stay, brings me to my knees
To crawl into the shadows, and beg for more

Iron hard conviction... Heart of Ice
Tar black soul... Heart of Ice

Steel blue eyes, so damn cold
Iron hard conviction, tar black soul
Got ways to make me stay
Brings me to my knees
To crawl into the shadows, and beg for more

Steel blue eyes... Heart of Ice
So damn cold... Heart of Ice

Floating down the Milky Way
I'm leaving it all behind
Gentle cries are echoing
A star is born, another dies

Give me closure, give me an end to this sadness
Standing on the brink of madness

Fading into oblivion
Walking back from where I came
The road is hard and nights are cold
I tremble and loose my hold
So alone I fool myself
That I'm not just tumbling in the darkness

Tell me tales of yesterday
When our hearts were strong
I heard you say... "nothing lasts forever"
Visions of the future
And memories of the past
Are cast into the well of sadness

A thousand years ago
In a far and distant land
The people pledged the earth
And the children lend a hand
Then came the drought
And all the crop would die
They called upon the serpent
To bring mercy from the sky

Rainbow Serpent

Scales of a million colours
Eyes of crimson fire
Sliding cross the universe
And cracking the sky
The shaman wields his cane
The spirits will arise
Ancient world, ancient rules
Passed down through centuries

Do the rain dance
The ritual's begun
Help this peaceful tribe
And bless us with rain

Day is eating the night away
It's time to leave again
Born a rambler with a restless soul
I'll be gone in the morning

Always searching for the final destination
Always dreaming away his desolation

Guess I'm a loser but it ain't my choice
You never know how the chips may fall
If you take the smooth you're gotta take the rough

Waiting for the dawn
Is there a light at the end of the tunnel

Your god failed you
In this moment
Spreading black wings now
Losing yourself
To the thrill of the game
Your dying emotions are feeding the flame

Can't turn back, it's too late to run now
Stand and face your fate
Time to pay with your soul
(You're) caught inside the spell

Spirits lasts
Forever screaming
Into new dimensions
Lurking, crawling
Choking you
Ghost inside your head

Riding high on burnished wings
And with a brazen eye
The buzzard waits to take its pick
Waiting on that helpless cry
In the time it takes
The moment that you're right off guard
Bridges that you thought you'd crossed
Got to cross 'em all again

Just as lightning strikes
Before the thunder
The buzzard falls upon its prey
Before it has a chance to wonder
But the meek will stand
Understanding nature
Seeing far beyond the plan
Take their place in time
Take their place in timeless structure

Out, out of the dark surrounding shadows
Tearing apart ? trying to get to me
Sometimes you'll see, sometimes you'll feel
Colder than steel, instantly real

Burn, burning with fire, from the depths of time
Enter my space to take my grace from me
Slither and slide, ready to hide
Far down inside ? waiting with pride

I close my eyes to worldly skies
I leave behind the day
And deep within me, I shall begin
To chase my thoughts away
As loved ones hold me to their sides
Their strength flows into me
To cast me out of sorrow's blindness
Into eternity

I thought I heard them softly calling
The voices of the spheres
As light years flash forever falling
Away from waking fears
I reach out, try to touch the passing
Of beings bathed in light
But they just smile, their eyes not asking
To see beyond their sight

Ooh silver tightrope
Ooh silver tightrope
Ooh silver tightrope

I thought I saw the candle-bearers
On their way to the beyond
Beckon to me from the future
To come and join the throng
I stepped upon the silver tightrope
Balancing beliefs
And wings unfurling with a new hope
I left behind my griefs

Ooh silver tightrope
Ooh silver tightrope
Ooh silver tightrope
Ooh silver tightrope
(repeat to fade)

Jumping Jack flash in the pan
Took a look and ran
Wanna buy tomorrow
Gonna leave it locked in the can

Lucy's out falling about
Trying to find her man
Sold her rings, all her things
Sell herself if she can
I know she will

Henry's eyes tell no lies
Thinks he's got it made
Super cool, he's no fool
Nothing makes him afraid
But the darkness

On the phone no one's home
Always out on the town
On the streets, dragging their feet
I've gotta find a place to lay down
From the night-time

Lost a friend
Met his end way before his time
Tried it once, tried it twice
Didn't notice the signs

Rock and roll, moving your soul
Took a few as well
On the line, out of time
Shooting stars that all fell

Oh Lord, do something, gotta slow it down
It's coming on too fast, can't take it
Feel like I'm gonna drown

Gonna stand and face it, but I need you near
Through the darkest hours, I'm calling
Sometimes I think you don't hear me calling
Hear me calling

My brother's falling, I'll catch him if I can
My brother's falling, I'll catch him if I can
My brother's falling, I'll catch him if I can
I see him falling, join him in his last stand

All the questions and all the lies
Will soon be answered to your surprise
All the doubting and all the tears
Will fall to ashes across the years

In my head a whisper I hear
Waking my senses so clear

A softer thought rests in my mind
Bringing me home to the light

My desire of harmony in life

Just to see and hold the world
In a grain of sand
Sets the spirit free

To feel eternity
In a grain of sand
So it did to me

It suddenly occurred to me
Hot to just beauty see

My desire of harmony in life

Just to see and hold the world
In a grain of sand
Sets the spirit free

To feel eternity
In a grain of sand
So it did to me

The past in me
The memories are stealing my dreams
The legacy is dividing me and
Shatters my soul

It crawls in me
It burns inside with reasons of guilt
My pounding chest
The curse of deeds is breaking the bones in me

So fast falling
Senses are growing
Black clouds are shattered
My name is spoken

When I rise from my bed as a newborn man
There's no evil dream from now on
Blood on my hands from the dance with the devil
Knowing the secret of my soul
Broken spell, the broken spell
