Outshine the Sun
Your empty eyes are looking my way I know you've tried it many times before A broken glass is all you need You see the white light and the open door A world of lies and shattered dreams Has tossed you in the gutter You try to fly with broken wings But you keep on falling Rise above the ashes Don't be afraid To stand and face the masses A one-eyed prophet To lead the blind To kill the outcast Stand up and fight Stand up and fight! Stand up and fight! You live in fear and segregation All fingers point at you and you don't want To play their game and have your share You have the power to resist the floods The fools are gathering again Fighting for the spotlight Turn your back and walk away Now! Rise above the ashes Don't be afraid To stand and face the masses A one-eyed prophet To lead the blind To kill the outcast Stand up and fight A world of lies and shattered dreams Has tossed you in the gutter You try to fly with broken wings But you keep on falling The fools are gathering again Fighting for the spotlight Turn your back and walk away Now! Rise above the ashes Don't be afraid To stand and face the masses A one-eyed prophet To lead the blind To kill the outcast Stand up and fight Rise above the ashes Don't be afraid To stand and face the masses A one-eyed prophet To lead the blind To kill the outcast Stand up and fight Stand up and fight! Stand up and fight! Run Free, run free, yeah!

You sit upon a throne but built so high You gaze at all of us with spite You pass your sins for everyone to bear With hearts so rueful and contrite We call upon grace and might but all you do is crush our dreams and erase them Hiding away behind your disguise You pave your way bigoted lies You try to kick us while we’re down The word has got around thet in this town You’re the enemy The enemy, you’re the enemy The enemy Standing face to face You make the blood boil in my veins Now time has come for all to see What we’ve become we’re proud and free We refuse to live in misery I’m sick and tired of all plans and schemes The way you pass your judgments as you please Like fools you try to lead us by the nose Fill our minds with thoughts we never chose But we’ll no longer heed your cry Your days are over now ‘cause to me You’re just the enemy The enemy, you’re the enemy The enemy

There's a rumor in the night, A distant face that memory Has brought back to my door I assumed it would fade away Time didn't kill it after all ... Why do we try to hide from yesterday? Erase our footsteps in the sand The gate is open but it's cold and dark The siren calls from beyond You pay the price - and you pray for salvation But all you get is desolation Hear the sound of the clashing waves and the wailing wind as a new day dawns All your dreams washed up on the shore are now faded and gone Always standing on the edge of paradise, but you never took that step There's a ship waiting on the shore and you cannot find the sail Seasons wasted wondering why You were too weak to move on A silent scream, an empty cry for Someone to carry you home The demon tries to take control again Nightmares appear in your mind Afraid to fly - like a bird in a cage No chance to leave this earthly prison Hear the sound of the clashing waves and the wailing wind as a new day dawns All your dreams washed up on the shore are now faded and gone Always standing on the edge of paradise, but you never took that step There's a ship waiting on the shore and you cannot find the sail There's a newborn star that lights your way in the dark You have to reach out and take it. All the poison you drank will be drained from your heart Come and dance with the minstrel - Leave your fears behind The vision's fading, The winds are blowing, But no one answers the call You always tried to hide from yesterday Remove the traces of your past Hear the sound of the clashing waves and the wailing wind as a new day dawns All your dreams washed up on the shore are now faded and gone Always standing on the edge of paradise, but you never took that step There's a ship waiting on the shore and you cannot find the sail

Once I had a gift to remember Warm and glowing shard like the ember Of a fire that won’t expire Sealed away and frozen in time Like the love we tried to consign In jealous hearts, torn and ripped apart In your eyes a million stars arise but the clouds won’t let them shine If we could have braved the stormy nights I’d have held on to your heart, so dearly Fiery hearts about to conspire Set ablaze and cause a misfire Getting close to the final sacrifice Creeping like a silent assailant Growing stronger thirsty for vengeance Running blind lost between the lines In your eyes a million stars arise but the clouds won’t let them shine If we could have braved the stormy nights I’d have held on to your heart, so dearly You choose your path but then you lost your way You found yourself again in darkness tears and despair Pale figures linger at the break of day In your eyes a million stars arise… In your eyes a million stars arise but the clouds won’t let them shine If we could have braved the stormy nights I’d have held on to your heart, so dearly In your eyes a million stars arise but the clouds won’t let them shine If we could have braved the stormy nights I’d have held on to your heart, so dearly

I heard the sound of the closing door Woke up to find no one was besides me Morning had come and caught me unaware The devil never gives signs of warning Is tis the price I have to pay? For all the beauty my heart plunders If you set my soul on fire, who will put it out when you’re gone? The fires of hell surround me; saints and sinners wait for your call I can’t remember, I can’t recall, The steps I took on the road I travelled I fell asleep on a quiet summer day I lost my way in the heart of darkness And still I find it hard to tell The devil’s music plays, I wonder… If you set my soul on fire, who will put it out when you’re gone? The fires of hell surround me; saints and sinners wait for your call There, where my memory’s laid to rest And the serpents crawl and kiss Underneath the marble weights Where my heart still beats I’m… … Turning I’m twisting, revolving, retrieving, When the hour strikes again I’ll be reborn If you set my soul on fire, who will put it out when you’re gone? The fires of hell surround me; saints and sinners wait for your call If you set my soul on fire, who will put it out when you’re gone? The fires of hell surround me; saints and sinners wait for your call

A Nocturne painted on the wall Eyes looking from the canvas beckoning me Come with me and set me free Your senses deceive you Come with me and you will see this isn't a dream Afraid I try to run and hide The colors in my palette seem to have run dry Take your chance and step inside A new life is waiting The voice is not inside your mind the voice is alive I wish I could see the world I have painted Step inside make the artwork complete And those eyes staring back like a mirror Shift reality Now I know there's no chance to hide, no chance to get away No chance to pretend that I don't hear it calling Come with me and set me free Your senses deceive you Come with me and you will see this isn't a dream I wish I could see the world I have painted Step inside make the artwork complete And those eyes staring back like a mirror Shift reality Come with me, Set me free, Contrast and harmony the painting is complete There's nobody there, silent and empty I have come to set you free I have found the answer Trapped inside a world of dreams, where's reality? I wish I could see the world I have painted Step inside make the artwork complete And those eyes staring back like a mirror Shift reality

Treason rides again as a rumor rides from within Running dogs of hate, sow seeds of disorder Whispers on the street as the shadows stalk the city squares Cold and pale like the sun on a winter morning Running and hiding from the endless night Time’s running out on your life When it comes to the kill they’ll look you straight in the eye When your number’s up don’t ask me why When your number’s up don’t ask me why Marching to the beat of the drums of dissidence and fear Steps so turbulent they make mountains crumble A single shot rings out and the balance falters from within When there’s hunger for blood, it will all spill over Running and hiding from the endless night Time’s running out on your life When it comes to the kill they’ll look you straight in the eye When your number’s up don’t ask me why When your number’s up don’t ask me why When your freedom burns in silence and the final curtain calls When all oaths are made in violence and the final heads have rolled When the saving hand of liberty has turned away from you When they’ve finally taken over, they will feast on flesh and spit the bones Running and hiding from the endless night Time’s running out on your life When it comes to the kill they’ll look you straight in the eye When your number’s up don’t ask me why When your number’s up don’t ask me why Kill in the womb before it sees the light The Promise is left unfulfilled Cause I’m running and hiding with a gun by my side Spitting blood and sleeping when I die Spitting blood and sleeping when I die

Wipe the dust away, from a box of levity Stirs a memory, a lifetimes breadth away Too scarred to close my eyes, the past floods in like tears One more wordless cry fills the empty night No bleeding heart could ever stand in my way When, I played upon the foothills of depravity No hearts and no minds were in my gift to bestow I Can’t believe in life when death’s the only real God I know They said, the truth will set you free, They said, no harm would come to me… The ends of sanity, drowning in profanities The cost of savagery. A slate that won’t wipe clean No guide to light my way into unknown places Silent partners stare, but there’s nothing left to say… I was the messenger, the means to an end Unleashed, to crush belief in far and broken lands No conscience, no reason, no map and no plan Destroyed the lives of those who never stood a chance They said, the truth will set you free, They said, no harm would come to me… No bleeding heart could ever stand in my way As I play upon the foothills of depravity No hearts and no minds were in my gift to bestow I Can’t believe in life when death’s the only real God I know They said, the truth will set you free, They said, no harm would come to me…

What's that thing above the clouds Making circles with its tail I know I haven't seen that thing before Could it be they're finally here? Have they been waiting all these years? And could that thing be called a UFO? I know they're green I know they're fast I know that Elvis is alive They took him more than 20 years ago And maybe they're outside your door Alien footsteps on the floor You know you're never coming back no more Unidentified flying object in the sky I'm not out of my mind I think I saw a U.F.O. I think I saw a U.F.O. I think I saw a U.F.O. I think I saw a U.F.O.
