I don’t want no anesthesia, Just give it to me straight I can see the needle’s sharpened, and I can hardly wait You know pain can be pleasure When ya know it’ll last forever Push your ink into me Chorus Pierce me, tattoo me, leave a permanent mark Change me forever, leave a permanent mark I don’t want to numb the feelin’, my skin’s the canvas for your art Like a junkie who’s addicted, it’s hard to stop it once you start You know pain can be pleasure When ya know it’ll last forever Push your pin into me Chorus Pierce me, tattoo me, leave a permanent mark Change me forever, leave a permanent mark Give me some color! A new place to hang a ring Make it last forever! Permanent mark… I don’t want no anesthesia, Just give it to me straight I can see the needle’s sharpened, and I can hardly wait You know pain can be pleasure When ya know it’ll last forever Push your ink into me Chorus 2x Pierce me, tattoo me, leave a permanent mark Change me forever, leave a permanent mark

Between the here and after I heard the sound of other children’s laughter It’s music sounded strange to me Reminds me of how I want it to be This empty space within my heart can get the best of me Abandoned room is barren, walls are closing in on me 1/2 Chorus Time has gotta hold on me… Restless Heart Longing for a family… Restless Heart Been waiting for so long now From deep inside me… natural desires A child would make it so complete Reflection a part of you and part of me This empty space within my heart can get the best of me Abandoned room is barren, walls are closing in on me Chorus Time has gotta hold on me… Restless Heart Longing for a family… Restless Heart Only you can set me free… Restless Heart A part of you and part of me… Restless Heart Solo Been waiting for so long now From deep inside me… natural desires A new life would make it so complete Reflection a part of you and part of me This empty space within my heart can get the best of me Abandoned room is barren, walls are closing in on me Chorus Time has gotta hold on me… Restless Heart Longing for a family… Restless Heart Only you can set me free… Restless Heart A part of you and part of me… Restless Heart

Inquisition searching the county by night Your in no position to bargain for your life They used to call you “Healer” The sick and the dying would cry out your name Now judge has put a price on your head Commands you to feel the flame Maleus Malificorum Maleus the innocent fall to their knees Chorus These are the burning times Witnesseth the burning times Ritual or medical skill? They don’t understand With herbs of the forest, your “potions” you make by hand Hunted for a bounty The book, or the “Hammer” by infamous fame The jury’s put a price on your life Compels you to the stake Maleus Malificorum Maleus why is their power corrupt? Chorus These are the burning times Witnesseth the burning times Solo Maleus Malificorum Maleus the innocent fall to their knees Chorus These are the burning times Witnesseth the burning times

In a world full of fantasy, now it’s come clear to me For all that is real is in my arms Whenever your hearts so far away… Look to the sky… You know I’ll be waiting Chorus Our love is destiny, this union was meant to be As sure as the dawn returns to the night I know that our love is destiny The coldest december, hearts of fire I do december I saw the warmth of your soul, there in green eyes Whenever your dreams seem far away… Look by your side… you know I’ve been waiting Chorus Our love is destiny, this union was meant to be As sure as the dawn returns to the night I know that our love is destiny Always in love we’ll be… forever, eternity Your name is emblazoned on my heart If you ever alone and longing to stray Look by your side… You know I’ll be waiting Chorus 2x Our love is destiny, this union was meant to be As sure as the dawn returns to the night I know that our love is destiny

For answers to the question of Man, we must unlock the past One glimpse into eternity won’t last. Discover the beginning of time is not far away And you will see what I can see, someday. Chorus 2x Into the labyrinth caught in a maze Open wounds to suture Enlightenment been lost in the haze History’s the future. No! Don’t you fool with my mind!! You’ll never break my will you see, witness the dawning of time Mistakes we’ve made haven’t washed away An open book to tomorrow. And we must learn or the ocean will burn Our tragedy and sorrow Chorus 2x Into the labyrinth caught in a maze Open wounds to suture Enlightenment been lost in the haze History’s the future.

Twenty two hundred souls at the mercy of the sea In the frozen darkness merely hundred remained Hopes been shattered like so many sheets of ice But true love flourishes in the final hour Chorus Fading ember called her Ship of Dreams Queen of December oh the Ship of Dreams Women and children and gentlemen first Who decides which life is most important? Watch in horror as the vessel is going down Conscience will be your eternal sentinel Chorus Fading ember called her Ship of Dreams Queen of December oh the Ship of Dreams Cast off for America! Land of promise and glory! Steaming to new horizon!! How surreal this life seems Solo They claimed nothing could sink her It was just a folly of man Nature can shatter our monuments With but a breath Chorus Fading ember called her Ship of Dreams Queen of December oh the Ship of Dreams Always remember oh the Ship of Dreams Queen of December oh the Ship of Dreams

I like racin’ with the wind The sound of thunder I the night It’s not a car I wanna be in I like ‘em low and wide Chorus Iron Horses side by side Iron Horses in power we ride I feel the clatted of the pistons Right between my things Hear me comin’ from a distance Ya won’t believe your eyes Chorus Iron Horses side by side Iron Horses in power we ride “And all of you out there like me ride free! Sweet freedom hold close in your hand Let no one take it away, try as they may The eagle belongs to this land” Solo Born to Ride! Born to Ride! Chorus Iron Horses side by side Iron Horses in power we ride
