Never Seen Again
Made in his image, the gift of flight was all denied Gazing at the birds our man was filled with godlike pride To bask in his glory is but given to few But accept it, it didn't go through On the verge to achieving his dreams A new world above the clouds And the visions in his mind Will lead the way Touch the sun, reach for the sky Fly high above the clouds Spread your wings from dusk into dawn Soar to another world Determined as he builds another new machine No food, no sleep as the days turn into weeks Pride consumes him, he's losing his mind Denying the truth, that man cannot fly To accept it, he would rather die Than living a life on the ground Will the image in his mind Be realised Touch the sun, reach for the sky Fly high above the clouds Spread your wings from dusk into dawn Soar to another world Watch as the human bird takes flight Then falls to his grave Now released from flesh and bone He can Touch the sun, reach for the sky Fly high above the clouds Spread your wings from dusk into dawn Soar to another world

Eight years of torn illusions A dream from distant lands Is this a vision from my past Another time another place The days they pass before me My mind will soon reveal Is this a quest for wisdom That we all shall fear I saw their ancient cities Even though I wasn't there Reflections from the archives Now buried in the sand I hope one day they all could See who I really am That I haven’t lost my mind I'm a traveller in time Transcending life The shadow out of time Out of time The shadow out of time Out of time Out of time The shadow out of time I saw their ancient cities Even though I wasn't there Reflections from the archives Now buried in the sand Out on my final journey The answers lie below The book revealed the secrets But my truth will never be heard Transcending life The shadow out of time Out of time The shadow out of time Out of time Out of time The shadow out of time Transcending life Transcending life Transcending life The shadow out of time Out of time The shadow out of time Out of time Out of time The shadow out of time Out of time

You sailed across the ocean To reach those distant lands Where no one's ever been before You scaled the tallest mountains To raise the flag of your beliefs Solitude was your reward So long you've yearned for fame and fortune One hundred thousand miles to go How will you break this dire silence Will you surrender or prevail Another space, another time Another price to leave behind For the pride and the glory Set the goals and risk your life As you're reaching for the sky Who needs the ride and the glory The fire's burning in your heart In just a moment you'll depart Leaving everything behind Who'll be the fool to follow Who calls it bravery Talking big and doing small So long you've yearned for fame and fortune One hundred thousand miles to go Another space, another time Another price to leave behind For the pride and the glory Set the goals and risk your life As you're reaching for the sky Who needs the pride and the glory You cannot fight the silence When all is said and done No one remembers who you are One harsh awakening You'll have to face another quest Put your life back on the line It's what's keeping you alive Another space, another time Another price to leave behind For the pride and the glory Set the goals and risk your life As you're reaching for the sky Who needs the ride and the glory Another space, another time For the pride and the glory For the pride and the glory, yeah

My friend you were the light of my childhood Through fear you held my hand But then one day your life was no more As you were taken from me As days go on the pain and suffering grows stronger As time passes by When silence falls and I'm all alone I remember with tears in my eyes We laughed and we cried, we stood side by side We danced and we sang in the rain Your smile may be gone, but the memory remains And someday I will see you again The hopes and dreams we shared on our journey Are now gone with the wind Your time ran out before I could tell you How much you mean to me I will go on and live as you taught me With fire in my heart Wait and see, I will be the hero You always were for me We laughed and we cried, we stood side by side We danced and we sang in the rain Your smile may be gone, but the memory remains And someday I will see you again I will honor your name for the rest of my days Then we'll be eternally bound Oh, oh... We laughed and we cried, we stood side by side We danced and we sang in the rain Your smile may be gone, but the memory remains And someday I will see you again I will honor your name for the rest of my days Then we'll be eternally bound Your smile may be gone, but the memory remains And someday I will see you again

When the skies are turning red I know that I'm alive When battle's imminent I know what lies ahead When the bell strikes I see terror in their eyes It is a thrilling feeling that I can't describe Oh mighty roar, fill the air and shake the ground Pray the gods are on my side The time will come and the wars I fought with bravery Will clear the path and lead me to my destiny Wisdom came to me as I lay dying on the field Among the wayward spirits of a thousand men Will I forever haunt the place of my demise Voices are calling me to join them in the light Oh mighty lord, will you greet me when I come Open up the gates and let me in The time will come and the wars I fought with bravery Will clear the path and lead me to my destiny All my life I have been a soldier I followed orders, my heart grew colder I fought for glory but now I realize I could have been someone else entirely Make people happy instead of sorry Life is short and we only get one chance The time will come and the wars I fought with bravery Will clear the path and lead me to my destiny One day my allegiance will bring me to my victory Curse my soul, let me pay for my sins

Brave men set out to sea in the year of 1845 Sent by their kings demand to explore the arctic ice Course set to north by north deep into the far unknown Sailing to what became their last voyage on the seas No one knew they would never return No one knew they would never come home And they sailed tall and proud With strong winds under blue skies But they would never come home Cold air runs through the sails The sea flowing blue in the sun Proud to be part of this plan To map uncharted lands Little did they know they would not return Brewing in the distance; a force of nature When the storm was over their ship was bogged down In the land of ice and snow And they know they would never return And they know they would never come home All attempts to break free From the ice were all in vain And they were never seen again And they know they would never return And they know they would never come home And they sawed down their mast To heat the frozen crew But they would never come home And they know they would never return And they know they would never come home As their blood turned to ice As they froze to their deaths They knew they would never come home
Greed corrupts and destroys It burns down our homes and takes our lives You, you want it all You want it fast and you want it now Alas, no price is too high To get what you crave, you signed with your life Fool, it can't be undone The contract is sealed and so is your fate Run, run for your life and your soul The reaper will find where you are You can't hide When deals are made in blood The devil will show who you are Run for your life Run, run for your life and your soul The reaper will find where you are You can't hide When deals are made in blood The devil will show who you are Run for your life Soon you will realize The blessing received was truly a curse Death will not be the end There is no escape from what you have done Hell is where you will stay Eternally damned and fighting for gold See and understand This is the price you have to pay Run, run for your life and your soul The reaper will find where you are You can't hide When deals are made in blood The devil will show who you are Run for your life Now canst thou, Son, behold the transient farce Of goods that are committed unto fortune For which the human race each other buffet For all the gold that is beneath the moon Or ever has been, of these weary souls Could never make a single one repose
Walking along a dark lonesome road With only the moonlight to guide him The peaceful sound of silence echoes in his head When suddenly a roaring he hears He turns around in fright Like two glowing eyes in the dark it appears before him Oh, oh The Demon Rider Oh, oh Descendant from hell Oh, oh, oh In the city streets at night Steam is rising from the sewers The sound of screaming tires break the silent air Her heart's pounding faster now There's nowhere left to run Frozen in the headlights, death is coming soon Oh, oh The Demon Rider Oh, oh Descendant from hell Oh, oh, oh A life was ended here tonight When metal met bone on the sidewalk It will not end; he'll kill again, one more for the road Oh, oh The Demon Rider Oh, oh Descendant from hell Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh He rides again and again and again

The answer appeared for your eyes All of those signs came alive Enlightenment will lead you away Divine inceptions What if the truth lies ahead Are you the one to create Sadness and tears in their eyes For all eternity Some say there's a line Between space and time Can you see the writings Deep in their minds Insanity and genius Eternity and fate The blind will follow paths that you create Insanity and genius For lust and devious play Who's the fool when nothing else makes sense The masses await your command Whatever they hear they'll obey The flames keep on burning They fall to their knees It's all they know With your powers you can create A world full of empty shells They're too weak to make a stand They'll be gone and forgotten Some say there's a line Between space and time Can you see the writings Deep in their minds Insanity and genius Eternity and fate The blind will follow paths that you create Insanity and genius For lust and devious play Who's the fool when nothing else makes sense Insanity and genius Eternity and fate The blind will follow paths that you create Insanity and genius For lust and devious play Who's the fool when nothing else makes sense

A storm is coming, a march of the dead Beyond the rivers, the forests ahead Their warcry echo in the distance away Risen from earth's open grave We're few in numbers but strong in our hearts We will defend what's ours standing tall They're coming closer to conquer us all But we will answer the call Prepare for what to come with the battle drawing near Rain is pouring down, the ground turns into mud We sense the growing fear We await the darkness, we will show them light In our hearts we feel the fire There's no turning back We hear the battle cries, we are standing side by side One thousand men with swords held high in position Just waiting for the sign The smell of fear, the vengeance in our eyes When the charge begins we are saints, we fear no life Read us a prayer, far from the beast below The fallen one who do us wrong Read us a prayer, make it so our voice be heard By the holy father above Oh, oh... Oh, oh... Oh, oh... Oh, oh... The raid starts and our men are falling to the ground Striking first, they got the numbers "No surrender, fight with all you've got!" No cry for mercy will we give our foe In the end our last man standing will prevail with glory in his hand Read us a prayer, far from the beast below The fallen one who do us wrong Read us a prayer, make it so our voice be heard By the holy father above Oh, oh... Oh, oh... Oh, oh... Oh, oh...
