Close my eyes starting dreaming See a vision filled with wings Head my way Feel the presence of unknown power Telling me to come This is the only way
It's dream within dream Lost and lonely Don't get pulled by the devil's hand
Silent screamer filled with fear As the night time shapes a face Then disappears Scared forever into believing That your mind has met the Prince of whom you see
It's dream within dream Lost and lonely Don't get fooled by the Devil's hand
It's dream within dream Fool forever, don't get fooled Forever Don't get fooled, be the devil
In your eyes The evil spirit rises Blinded by the dark You fall into shame As the reaper takes you Down the spiral stairway You share the evil pit With satan's name
Nightmare it's got me runnin' Nightmare it's calling you Nightmare it's got me runnin' Nightmare it's calling you
It's dream within a dream Lost and lonely Don't get fooled, be the devil
It's dream within a dream Lost forever Don't get fooled
It's got me running It's just a nightmare It's got me running It's got me running
I'll play your game But if you lose you're gonna have to pay the price Broken chains, like a prisoner free at last The fear inside just up and died Time will tell if i am wrong
It won't be too long You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark Well I'm not born to lose I'm not born to lose
You curse my name, as you turn and walk away, from view It won't be too long You don't scare me cos you're Hard to see and it's time That you were gone It won't be too long
You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark Well I'm not born to lose
You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark What you gonna do about it now What you gonna do about it now
It won't be too long It won't be too long It won't be too long
You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark What you gonna do about it now What you gonna do about it now
Winged with steel they fill the air The soldiers of fortune will ride In the sights of the enemy's gun Those who have taken their oaths tonight Are well prepared they know they'll Do or die even if it's suicide
Let's take a chance As the skies will Burn tonite Wasted lives and spirits run free On the wings of no return
Dressed to kill where eagles dare The fate of a nation's at hand Is this the answer to the prayers Come the dawn, thru the blood Red skies return with tears In their eyes, and they Recall thou shalt not kill
And in the morning They'll take a hero's bow And make the ever lasting flight
Hear them calling up above all Across the skies Hear them calling up above from The other side
Here them call!
Let's take a chance As the skies will burn tonite Wasted lives and spirits run free On the wings of no return
Let's take a chance As the skies will burn tonite Wasted lives and spirits run free On the wings of no return
Livin' in the fast lane is easy Till you run out of road Friends will turn to strangers When you're out of control A slip of the tongue when It's done, is often hard to See it thru So never let your words be lies Or they'll come looking for you
It's a hard life to love
For the price of glory you left And threw your fortunes away Never really cared too much for The job or the pay
You're standing in the rain with No cover but you never complain You're an angry young man face to Face but your mirrors insane It's a hard life to love
I'm simply refusing a part in your world And I see how it burns See how it burns And you're simply denying the fact That you're blind and I see no more I see red - I only see red
Think of all the times I was Hurting but you felt no pain Think of all the lies you told me Again and again And still you see the truth From those who continue to lie And now you're seeking life From those who are living to die It's a hard life to love
I'm simply refusing a part in your world And I see how it burns See how it burns And you're simply denying the fact That you're blind and I see no more I see red - I only see red
Livin' in the fast lane ain't easy When you run out of road Friends will turn to strangers When you've nowhere to go Don't give a damn when you're lost Cause you'll die from it all Laws were made to be broken And you do it for the thrill of it all It's a hard life to love It's a hard life to love
There's no end - there's no beginning To the old man's story Does he still remember me From lives gone by Oh I see his spirit rising Upon the back of time I've got nowhere to hide Will he keep a place for me
He is the king of all kings The keeper of light He holds eternity's wings
In his eyes an ocean's burning Swollen seas of tears Troubled mind the beating War drums in his ears No one ever hears his warning Am I the one he calls When they tell me they're afraid Some say I'll be put away
He is the king of all kings The keeper of light He holds eternity's wings My blood will spill my blood
My blood will spill my blood
In the wisdom of the prophet's Never ending tale Open up the eyes Within your mind, he says Crowned in his ancient glory There's a king within us all Some will say it's all in vain That he doesn't have a name
He is the king of all kings The keeper of light He holds eternity's wings
There's a man who sees all there is to see What the future holds for all As the days grow dark with the grim and final warning Beware of the ones with invisible friends They will steal into your mind And all too soon the signs begin to show
Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up to the shining Don't be blind by fools again Fools again
As the pages turn and the story's told From the visions he's seen The house on the hill With the haunted eyes that call Noone laughed as madness came out To play it's game If you stay too long you'll finally go insane
Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up to the shining Don't be blind by fools again Fools again
Bells will take their toll On your way There's no way we're born to shine Before our time, all your life You're on your own Lonely road Lost in a time Let the light lead your way To the golden throne It's the only way
Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up to the shining Don't be blind by fools again Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up the shining Don't be blind by fools again
Oh rise up, to the shining Wise up they're gonna steal your mind Rise up, the house is gonna haunt you No one laughed, no one cried You stayed too long You're finally gonna stay
Rising with the sun, the work has been done but people are starting to stare Called from afar to the court of the Czar Could it be something is wrong?
You stand face to face and your heart gathers pace for the answer to a question a prize If only you had known to be honest was wrong For the work that you've done you will pay with your eyes
CHORUS: Into the black where the night never ends and the light leaves a scar on your soul where your heart used to hold your love here! Heaven in Black
Inside there's a voice saying was there a choice you'd still be entombed in the night Lucifer's to blame, the reason for the flame They've taken your sight but they'll not take your God
The chapter is opened and the pages are turned the writings say many things but who was concerned Where can we run to now, when will we learn? When it's lost it's gone forever
For years they told me what I should do Down to the places to go and who should I talk to But that don't matter no more since I found out the truth and it feels good to me
The world is turnin' Forever turnin' Forever yearnin' For the love of life and you're wrong if you think that I'm afraid to love
I wonder, I wonder does it not seem strange to you Just how the tables have turned on me and you? How long can we go on livin', livin' the way we do? When it's lost it's gone forever
