A man and his time machine A light in the darkness gleams Ride through the window to the world White horse of chrome and steel Mesmerized spinning wheels On leather wings soaring into the sun Innocence light the way Strike til the darkness unfolds There's no turning back, I'm afraid Out of the nighttime so cold Can you hear them callin', inner voices callin' you Headed for the dawning, eastern horizon Can you hear them callin', inner voices beckon you Heard it never ends there, eastern horizon So many miles between realistic thoughts and dreams We'll keep on ridin' to the end Stallion of iron with wheels Live just to hear, see and feel With Brother Northwind my closest friend Innocence light the way Strike til the darkness unfolds There's no turning back, I'm afraid Out of the nighttime so cold Can you hear them callin', inner voices callin' you Headed for the dawning, eastern horizon Can you hear them callin', inner voices beckon you Heard it never ends there, eastern horizon A man and his time machine A light in the darkness gleams Ride through the window to the world White horse of chrome and steel Mesmerized spinning wheels On leather wings soaring into the sun Innocence light the way Strike til the darkness unfolds There's no turning back, I'm afraid Out of the nighttime so cold Can you hear them callin', inner voices callin' you Headed for the dawning, eastern horizon Can you hear them callin', inner voices beckon you Heard it never ends there, eastern horizon

I remember all of the warmth You once shared with me Now your heart has grown cold and empty Lady Ice you're only a memory Lady Ice you're not what you seem to be, oh no You drew me in and left me standin' there But who would have known what lied behind your frozen stare You made me believe it was meant to be You captured me But I broke away and I know someday You'll cry for me Lady Ice you're only a memory Lady Ice you're not what you seem to be, oh no My Lady Ice, so lookout Lady Ice you're only a memory Lady Ice you're not what you seem to be, oh no

Can we take your gold and silver? Would you trade this island for beads? How 'bout your women for horses? Sounds like a fair trade to me Familiar story from around the world It's just good business, friend You'll never know the price of peace Until we reach the end Beautiful forest, clear mountain stream I think I'll name it after me But who are these people inhabiting for free My "new" discovery Can we take your gold and silver? Would you trade this island for beads? How 'bout your women for horses? Sounds just like a fair trade to me So many people, broken native heart Driven from your land But it's just progress So we pick your pocket While we shake your hand Bountiful farmland white sandy beach I think I'll name it after me Who are these people inhabiting for free My "new" discovery Can we take your gold and silver? Would you trade this island for beads? How 'bout your women for horses? Sounds just like a fair trade to me Can we take your mountains and rivers? How 'bout I name 'em after me Your arrows are no match for our bullets Sounds just like a fair trade to me Can we take your mountains and rivers? How 'bout I name 'em after me Your arrows are no match for our bullets Sounds just like a fair trade to me Can we take your mountains and rivers? How 'bout I name 'em after me Your arrows are no match for our bullets Sounds just like a fair trade to me Can we take your mountains and rivers? How 'bout I name 'em after me Your arrows are no match for our bullets Sounds just like a fair trade to me

Lost and I pulled you in I gave you my all, then you left me here within Did you fulfill your goal? Ripped and teared at my soul I give to you and you take from me Why is your love just one way? And all the things you say you've done for me Still makes me feel it's one way You sent me fallin', I can't break away Hear me callin' Did you fulfill your dreams Scared and alone my heart bleeds I give to you and you take from me Why is your love just one way? And all the things you say you've done for me Still makes me feel it's one way Love is a two way street, with you it's one way You can't make my life complete, someday you may Won't you even try to give it, give it back to me Love is a two way street with you it's one way Lost and I pulled you in I gave you my all, then you left me here within Did you fulfill your goal? Ripped and teared at my soul I give to you and you take from me Why is your love just one way? And all the things you say you've done for me Still makes me feel it's one way I give to you and you take from me Why is your love just one way? And all the things you say you've done for me Still makes me feel it's one way Love is a two way street, with you it's one way You can't make my life complete, someday you may Won't you try to give it, give it back to me Love is a two way street with you it's one way

The wind whispers as you start to close your eyes Dream on your way See the answers how the night can hypnotize It gets closer every day so look out! In the shadows when the darkness takes control You can rest from all your pain All the mysteries about to unfold Then the feelin' comes again Take a journey to the corners of your mind Live your life or throw it all away When you look into your mind Oh the things you'll find Let your spirit light the way Walk with me take my hand I can show you the light As we spiral down the stairway of your life Know it's comin' tonight Take a journey to the corners of your mind Live your life or throw it all away When you look into your mind Oh the things you'll find Let your spirit light the way

Dark shadow hangin' over me What on Earth could those noises be? Footsteps walls that creak and moan All by myself but I'm not alone Now this I find They're giving me some kind sign It's not in my mind A quiet place I could call my own That's all I ever wanted Heartbeat in the walls of stone The caste is haunted I feel the presence always watching me And every night I hear the awful screams Soft whispers bathed by eerie light Can't see the fang but I feel the bite Now this I find The papers are all sealed and signed It's not in my mind A quiet place I could call my own That's all I ever wanted Heartbeat in the walls of stone The caste is haunted I tell myself that it's all a dream How could a house made of stone laugh and scream Apparitions dance in candlelight Eyes of fire glowing rebes of white A quiet place I could call my own That's all I ever wanted Heartbeat in the walls of stone The castle is haunted A quiet place I could call my own That's all I ever wanted Heartbeat in the walls of stone The castle is haunted

Rhythm of the rain beating in my brain Blowing straight into my face Are you next to me? Are you really far away? Trying to hit my mark hiding in the dark Waiting for the light If they don't find me here Everything will be alright And all of the things and all the memories In my mind have slowly faded... away And now I return the link to the chain of my life Cold is the night, always dark before the dawn This is the truth you will find Winning the fight though your eyes can hardly see Beyond the veil of the blind Lookin' all around when will they be found You know this just might be the one Will you carry me if I ever start to fall? Standing in the rain really can't explain How we ever got to here If they don't see us here everything will be just fine And all of the things and all the memories In my mind have slowly faded... away And now I return the link to the chain of my life Cold is the night, always dark before the dawn This is the truth you will find Winning the fight though your eyes can hardly see Beyond the veil of the blind Rhythm of the rain beating in my brain Blowing straight into my face Are you next to me? Are you really far away? Trying to hit my mark hiding in the dark Waiting for the light If they don't find me here, everything will be alright And all of the things and all the memories In my mind have slowly faded... away And now I return the link to the chain of my life Cold is the night, always dark before the dawn This is the truth you will find With all your might find the strength to carry on Look what's ahead and behind Winning the fight, through your eyes can hardly see Beyond the veil of the blind

Awaken the city and warn all the people Something is coming to call Candlelit pages from desolate ages Bracing ourselves for the fall Oh cut like the knife, run for your life Wish you godspeed Oh behind the mask, take you to task A friend indeed Ancient voices on the wind Faith is your sword, trust is your shield Through the Dragon's Eye Wounds never heal, sunlight on steel Through the Dragon's Eye Must not go to sleep Resisting with back to wall Civilized nation you fuel the creation Facing the blame one and all Oh crack in the sky, ending is night Pray for your name Oh breath will combust, turn you to dust Winged serpentine Ancient legend on the wind Faith is your sword, trust is your shield Through the Dragon's Eye Wounds never heal, sunlight on steel Through the Dragon's Eye Faith is your sword, trust is your shield Through the Dragon's Eye Wounds never heal, sunlight on steel Through the Dragon's Eye

Long ago and far away Blood vital flowed through my veins Life of whim and desire In death condemned to the fire Now I pray for my soul I've been chained in limbo Hands in the fire will burn The hardest lesson learned So many years on this Earth All my life I wonder what it's worth, what it's worth All the wight of my deeds on my mind What waits for the prisoner who died Salvation can come to me Now I pray for my soul I've been chained in limbo Hands in the fire will burn The hardest lesson learned So many years on this Earth All my life I wonder what it's worth, what it's worth The stories, the visions I've seen I pray this is only a dream No rest, no sleep on this land A desert of souls and I, a grain of sand Hands in the fire will burn I guess I'll never learn So many years on this Earth All my life I wonder what it's worth, what it's worth

All your life, in fear You walk among humanity every year And in your mind, it's clear You can't be who you want to be Not here, reality lives so near It's a matter of time and time is on the other side Standing out in the cold, no hope Your hope is what you left behind Haunting visions in your mind, you can't run away From the hands of time Can't you feed at all? Can't you see at all? Lost in time can't you feel it Read your mind there's no signal Everything's gone blank now your lost in time Lost in time, can't you see it All your life lost the meaning Everything's come clear, now your lost in time Lost in time Ray of hope so near and You're so far away from here It's a matter of mind Your mind is so consumed by fear Haunting visions in the night, you can't run away From the sands of time Thought you knew it all, I see through it all Lost in time can't you feel it Read your mind there's no signal Everything's gone blank now your lost in time Lost in time, can't you see it All your life lost the meaning Everything's come clear, now your lost in time Lost in time All your life, in fear You walk among humanity every year And in your eyes it's clear That your consume by fear Haunting vision of mankind you can't run away From the hands of time Can't you feel at all? I see through it all Lost in time can't you feel it Read your mind there's no signal Everything's gone blank now your lost in time Lost in time, can't you see it All your life lost the meaning Everything's come clear, now your lost in time Lost in time
