In the land of the dark and brave on the seas towards the souls you'll save under skies of charcoal gray the strong survive, and the weak will pray silver moon as she shines so bright on the water as our guiding light always there for a helping hand heading to a foreign land! RISE UP your swords of steel for the souls you'll save onward to Thunder Bay RISE UP your voices strong and scream along cry out -- VICTORY!! clash of steel, its burning light engaging foes to another fight marching across the foggy lands forge ahead as we make our stand bloody flesh lay across the field blackened leather and tarnished shields staking claim to a fallen town fists are up and the hammer's down! RISE UP your swords of steel for the souls you'll save onward to Thunder Bay RISE UP your voices strong and scream along cry out -- VICTORY!! metal strikes echo across the sky eerie silence as another dies hundred years of rape and pillage screams of praise as we clear the village shedding blood for our fellow man tortured souls can rest again sailing back on the blackened sea raise our flag in victory RISE UP your swords of steel for the souls you'll save onward to Thunder Bay RISE UP your voices strong and scream along cry out -- VICTORY!! VICTORY!!

Come, we must fly Oh, you and I We’ll find escape At the edge of the world I can sense a new age coming The tired ground below is rumbling Mother earth is cracking from the stress she’s under No matter how much we have tried The little we do won’t stem the tied It’s time to get out before madness takes over Maybe we can’t stop the forces that are now in play But we can delay Enjoy the time we have Come, we must fly Oh, you and I We’ll find escape At the edge of the world There, we will hide Alone, you and I Waiting as one For the end of the world Just like you, I want to hold on To all the things that soon will be gone My heart is hanging low from the sense of loss Desperate times call us to act Separate the wheat from the chaff The salient things must rise and the rest be tossed Maybe we can’t stop the forces that are now in play But we can delay Enjoy the time we have Come, we must fly Oh, you and I We’ll find escape At the edge of the world There, we will hide Alone, you and I Waiting as one For the end of the world Maybe we can’t stop the forces that are now in play But we can delay Live another day We can hide away Enjoy the time we have Come, we must fly Oh, you and I We’ll find escape At the edge of the world There, we will hide Alone, you and I Waiting as one For the end of the world

Birthed when lightning struck the sky Offspring of a sacred line His arrival marks the battle Soldiers by his side Earthly kings hide in fear They know the end is near Messiah Messiah Save us from the flames His coming was long foretold In the ancient texts of old He will free us from the darkness Brings us into light No more sorrow or pain He’s come to break the chains Messiah Messiah Save us from the flames

Lady luck has shined her light No, you won’t be home tonight City streets are calling my name Hit the gas and burn the road Pistons pumpin’ overload All or nothing, always my game Live fast, die young Make it last The night has just begun Angel’s thunder, devil’s reign Heavy metal runs through my veins Blackened steel and gasoline Living out my rebel dream The night ain’t over ‘til I say so Lady leather’s by my side Hang on tight it’s time to ride Love ain’t over ‘til I say go Live fast, die young Make it last The night has just begun Angel’s thunder, devil’s reign Heavy metal runs through my veins Angel, guide me through the night El diablo, carry me through the fight

Taken by forces that come from behind Life’s little mines Hidden from sight Worming their way deeply into our minds Tell us it’s all right So we run, run on while we still can Ravenous just like the living dead Caught between the rebels and the minions Striving on to keep our spirits fed Burn the daylight Rip up the road It’s not enough to survive Hit the red line Or we’re swallowed I need to know I’m alive Creeping up slowly, we fall one by one Held softly in Life’s easy chair Changes subtle we hardly notice Drifting unware So we run, run on while we still can Ravenous just like the living dead Caught between the rebels and the minions Striving on to keep our spirits fed Burn the daylight Rip up the road It’s not enough to survive Hit the red line Or we’re swallowed I need to know I’m alive

He could have lived his life Using stone walls as a shield, But Richard preferred the glory Found out on the battle field Overlooked by his father More a son of Aquitaine Torn between his source of power And his passion for his mother’s land Born the son of a king His passion was undying A relentless warrior With the heart of a lion Richard was next in line But Henry’s plans were a haze So he joined Phillip of France To end his father’s reign When he finally took the throne He disliked the name he’d made Hoping to right himself with God He sought penance in the third crusade Born the son of a king His passion was undying A relentless warrior With the heart of a lion Richard laid siege to acre Irritating Saladin But losses forced him to retreat Much to his own Chagrin He returned to Aquitaine To recapture his lost prize Too brave to wear his armor An arrow brought his premature demise Born the son of a king His passion was undying A relentless warrior With the heart of a lion Richard, the lion heart

Look around us and you will see flaming arrows Soaring through the air Archers intent on inflicting their damage No one will be spared But there’s a secret The wise men know Rise from your slumber There’s evil lurking down below Free yourself You won’t fear the dark of night When you ride In the armor of light Deep in the depths of all our yearning hearts There’s a fire to behold Put on your helmet and take up your shield Wrap yourself in a breastplate of gold Men of violence Men of greed Men of hatred Will fall in anguish at your knees Free yourself You won’t fear the dark of night When you ride In the armor of light

I don’t have a tomorrow They’ve taken everything from me My house, my wife, my family Innocent and disregarded I’m so consumed with anger Thoughts of vengeance taunting me There’re detached and indifferent No concern for my loss or pain I wasn’t looking for a cause or for a fight I am just a simple man But my life has been completely torn apart Acts of malice force my hand Rise, gather all my strength and rise From the wreckage Watch, while I set the world alight Throughout the night I’m restless It is impossible to sleep How many will be orphaned From the revenge that I seek? Than all at once it happens Summoned by a holy vision He whispers gently to me Who will care for all my children? Suddenly I feel a flood of energy I awaken to new light I’ll turn my loss into someone else’s gain And set my mind to a new fight Rise, gather all my strength and rise From the wreckage Watch, while I set the world alight I wasn’t looking for a cause or for a fight I am just a simple man But I’ll turn my loss into someone else’s gain And set my mind to a new fight Rise, gather all my strength and rise From the wreckage Watch, while I set the world alight

Down in Texas Deep in my soul Angels cry out Calling me home Wash my sins In the Rio Grande I’m living free Gun in my hand Ride, a loner Pride, I hear the songs And tales of yesterday Her southern star Will shine forever San Antonio I make my stand They know my name San Antonio I may be gone But I’ll never fade away Rattlesnakes hide In the shadow of night A coyote howls In lonely moonlight Searching for ghosts I found a rebirth Never was there More beauty on earth Ride, a loner Pride, I hear the songs And tales of yesterday Her southern star Will shine forever San Antonio I make my stand They know my name San Antonio I may be gone But I’ll never fade away

In the land of the long forgotten Where the rivers of tears Washes the troubled souls clean Lives a gypsy with a wandering spirit And the blackest eyes This world has ever seen She stands at the ready With the wolves by her side She knows to wait long enough For my resistance to subside Caught in the witch’s eye And I’m running out of time Hard luck is coming my way Cause I’m caught in the witch’s eye Now and then she creeps out of the shadows When the moon hangs low And the harvest is ripe There to comfort the weak and downtrodden With promises of triumph Over every gripe She stands at the ready With the wolves by her side She knows to wait long enough For my resistance to subside Caught in the witch’s eye And I’m running out of time Hard luck is coming my way Cause I’m caught in the witch’s eye

The waiting is over I’m ready to shine The chains that once held me down Will no longer bind I lived with uncertainty And suffered through pain Thought I had no control So I prayed for change Yeah, I prayed for change Finally, I realized The power’s inside My fears are left behind I’m ready to shine I was floating in anger Adrift in black seas Always hoping for something to change Or someone to rescue me Then one day I raised my eyes A new door came to light Found the strength to walk through Into a new life Yeah, into a new life Finally, I realized The power’s inside My fears are left behind I’m ready to shine

Fighting forces forsaken to man Bringing destruction is part of the plan Raise your weapons, brute force is a must Ride the thunder, engage the thrust Break the silence, scorching the sky Touch the heavens, the maiden she flies Wind fanning flames as the engines combust Leathered fighters, intentions unjust Synchronized warfare Riveted steel Hypnotized puppet Doing the deed for the thrill of the kill Fight or you will Die so you must Fly into the Raining fire Stalk the rebel who’s set in my sights Locked and loaded and ready to strike Driving the enemy back to their land United in justice we stand Chase the bandits, the scourge of mankind Rage, fury and action combined Heavy machines with hearts made of steel Power and glory meet passion and will Synchronized warfare Riveted steel Hypnotized puppet Doing the deed for the thrill of the kill Fight or you will Die so you must Fly into the Raining fire Disciplined fighters are leading the fleet Sirens screeching, alerting the weak Pillars of fire, a warning to heed Face the battle, committed we bleed Synchronized warfare Riveted steel Hypnotized puppet Doing the deed for the thrill of the kill Fight or you will Die so you must Fly into the Raining fire

How can I know what tomorrow will bring When I’m not even sure of today? Withering under the weight of existence And desperate find my own way I’ve checked the boxes and read all the books Even gathered material things Yet I’m adrift in seas of discontent With no lighthouse to find my bearings Trapped in this moment Frozen in time Waiting for someone to save me Lost in the dark Searching for some relief Might we find solace Wrapped in our unbelief How can I know what tomorrow will bring When I’m not even sure of today? Trapped in this moment Frozen in time Waiting for someone to save me Lost in the dark Searching for some relief Might we find solace Wrapped in our unbelief

A streak of lightning is shooting through the air Electric sun lights the sky His face is frightening, so evil ones beware Men of disaster hear his cry And now at last we know he's real The power of his sword we feel Thundersteel Thundersteel The earth it rumbles, death is in the air The city crumbles, death is everywhere And from the burning sky we see the soldier fly He mounts his horse of steel and now he rides And now at last we know he's real The power of his word we feel Thundersteel Thundersteel A streak of lightning is shooting through the air Electric sun lights the sky His face is frightening, so evil ones beware Men of disaster hear his cry And now at last we know he's real The power of his sword we feel Thundersteel Thundersteel Thundersteel
