British Lion

I've been going round in circles History reveals its echoes Do you show a little kindness I can see only blindness I've been searching for salvation I can taste this desperation Hide away this face in shame Come on take me as I am Come on and save me Come on and free me Come on and heal me 'Cause this is my God I've found my God This is my love... my love You are the calm I am the war Sleeping beauty on my bed There's a whisper from the life force And the season's running scared Come on and save me Come on and free me Come on and touch me 'Cause this is my God I've found my God You are my love... my love Blessed are the children That are raised among killers The making of an Einstein The making of a Hitler Can you hear me For I'm only bleeding Come on and save me Come on and free me Come on and touch me 'Cause this is my God I've found my God You are my love... my love See me... hear me... Touch me... love me...

All that I know is changing now Winter will come around too soon Just like the leaves are changing colour My face is like an open book All that I see through my eyes I must have something to believe Leave me today I'm snowblind The world is biting at my heels I used to dream of mountains That I would climb some day I used to dream of lost worlds That I would find some day Don't tell me it's science that blinds me But rather I need some true humanity Let's question our faith and our purity All that I've done in my life I have lost friends and brothers Now that I reach for new heights Now that I rediscover I used to dream of pictures That I would paint some day I used to live in my fear I've been reborn today Don't tell me its science that blinds me But rather I need some true humanity Let's question our gods and our purity I used to dream of mountains I used to dream of lost worlds I used to live in my fear I used to dream of pictures I read the headlines today How your young breath was taken away There was a picture of your friends Never to come this way again And you look like someone I know Open my eyes I must go The sun goes down I tramp the dirt now The water's warm and you can't swim The morn is colder feeling younger You can lie every once in a while I read the headlines today...

With every wish a price to pay You ridicule but things they do change I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder Deeper and deeper I'm falling Come, where are you dreamers now And for all our wrong We'll make our own history Karma killer, come together now Come together now, karma killer All your life of torment and tease You're strong in numbers and put us on our knees I wish I could shed this skin from my body Voices are calling in your head Why, why must it be this way I cry this is your bitter reign Karma killer, come together now Come together now, karma killer Bullets will fly on a cold black birthday You want to feel what it's like to go down Why, why must it be this way And I cry You've made your own history Karma killer, come together now Come together now, karma killer Karma killer, come together now Come together now, karma killer (Judgement is here Darkness will fall Into the unknown Karma killer)

Promises made out of fright Hands held tight all is calm tonight I came here looking for a friend To start again and it's goodbye my love And everything went wrong today I close my eyes but you won't go away And we were raised to do what's right And not react to whatever's thrown at us And these games that we play... Together we try and together we cry It's us against the world The hurt that they give 'cause we're licensed to live It's us against the world A gunshot echo in the night No end in sight I'm in the hands of luck Came here for some peace of mind Would you be kind And help me on my way And everything went wrong today I close my eyes but it won't go away And we were raised to do what's right And not react to whatever's thrown at us And these wars that we wage... Together we try and together we cry It's us against the world The hurt that they give 'cause we're licensed to live It's us against the world Sister and brother father and mother Something has got to give can't go much further And these games that we play... Together we try and together we cry It's us against the world The hurt that they give 'cause we're licensed to live It's us against the world Together we try and together we cry It's us against the world The hurt that they give 'cause we're licensed to live It's us against the world

Come on Here they come walking with fire in their eyes In these lands only the tough can survive Here in the heartland you hear their cries We'll fly the colours 'til the day that we die Hear the sound the backstreet dance has begun Walking proud the thundering hearts on the run Left out on a cold winter's night Just children we've got to survive We are the chosen ones of the night So young to be left all alone in the fight Even though we are the strays Say a prayer for better days And they'll never break us down 'Cause we are the chosen ones ... yeah Just a boy abandoned and left in the streets Kicked on the outside but inside you can't touch me, no I'm rising out of the gutters and pain Take on the world you'll remember my name We are the chosen ones of the night So young to be left all alone in the fight But you'll never see us cry 'Cause we're never gonna die And they'll never break us down 'Cause we are the chosen ones ... yeah And we're on the streets And we're so cold But we're rising up We'll be the chosen ones We are the chosen ones of the night So young to be left all alone in the fight But you'll never see us cry 'Cause we're never gonna die And they'll never break us down 'Cause we are the chosen ones ... yeah We are the chosen ones of the night And we're rising up

These days seem sad and lonely True love has passed me by I want you one and only Too bad these tears I cry How many heartaches must we take How many more times must we break We've all been caught out in the rain The rain will fall... The rain will fall These days of roaring thunder Come crashing to our world No trust no heart no saviour No place to hide my girl The cross keeps on glowing like before I don't want to see it anymore This world of ours is worth fighting for A world without heaven A world where the angels used to fly A world where the rain falls Now the rain is falling from my eyes These days make me want to cry These days we're all living a lie We go through life in search for heaven, heaven The wind blows wild and free now Got to catch me a ride My love come follow me now Don't let my dream just die 'Cause you may not get a second chance Got to live life the best we can Tonight I'll chase your nightmares away From a world without heaven A world where the angels used to fly A world where the rain falls Now the rain is falling from my eyes These days make me want to cry These days we're all living a lie We go through life in search for heaven, heaven These days make me want to cry These days we're all living a lie We go through life in search for heaven, heaven These days make me want to cry These days make me wanna die We go through life in search for heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

Like velvet to your touch I put your name upon my arm Delicious to my eyes My bird of paradise I thought that I knew you I was so happy You were my lover And we were gospel My substitute for sadness Like porcelain in pieces I believed in you I bowed down to you I was the fool I loved you too And you took me up and you shook me down You're Judas you're Judas, Judas Your apocalypse was mine My sweet Mary A tidal wave is coming Wash away wash away We drank of the water Tripped on the rainbow I was so happy Is there a ghost of a chance now Won't someone talk to me now I'm porcelain in pieces in pieces I believed in you I bowed down to you I was the fool I loved you too And you took me up and you shook me down You're Judas you're Judas my Judas... Judas Lover I thought I knew you Say good bye to the old world Behind the man eyes of a child I hear I see you well Would you talk with me Come and walk with me Give me a sign Give me a clue 'Cause I loved you I was the fool Believe in me believe in me I'm Judas yeah Judas... Judas I believed in you I bowed down to you I was the fool I loved you too And you took me up and you shook me down You're Judas you're Judas my Judas

Can you recall now the way it used to be Kicking at the world we didn't need to see Just you and me We were young hearts riding in the sun We never felt the pain This world was giving everyone We could do anything and leave the rest behind And nothing could stand in our way The truth behind the lies In the eyes of the young In the eyes of the young I want to go back to my days Back to my yesterdays When all of my dreams were so real To the eyes of the young And through young eyes I was born to be a king I didn't know just how But I'd bring this world to its knees And those days are gone The truth is on the streets In the killing fields of life Wasn't like this in my dreams And as my father's words Slowly fade away Well those days are gone forever Only in dreams at night In the eyes of the young In the eyes of the young I want to go back to my days Back to my yesterdays When all of my dreams were so real To the eyes of the young And as I'm walking late at night With a memory that'll never die All the stars are shining Like tears in my eyes And I would give anything To see you again Can you hear me now... Oh I hear you Share my dream with me...

These are the faces I know This is the land I was born to These are the people I know This is the place that I come from Don't ask me why Why nothing stays the same 'Cause I've had to lie It made me who I am We live and we die We're willing to try Do you know who you are And this is your time In a new land of crime Do you know who you are This is the city I know Where I was born and abandoned These are the faces I know The smiles cracked with the movement of life And of pace I am a running man You win and you lose 'Cause nothing stays the same We live and we die We're willing to try Do you know who you are And this is your time In a new land of crime Do you know who you are We live and we die We're willing to try Do you know who you are And this is your time In a new land of crime Do you know who you are These are the hands that build the future These are the hands we're one step closer You were the first to launch a thousand dreams These are the hands to build the future These are the hands we're one step further You are the Son You are the Father These are the hands that build the future These are the hands we're one step closer You were the first to launch a thousand dreams These are the hands that build the future These are the hands we're one step closer You are the son you are the father Do you know who you are Do you know who you are Do you know who you are

As I walk through corridors Find a room to rest Lay down there upon the bed Rest my weary head A labyrinth in suspension Open up the veins Take me to a dimension Free me of this pain Everything and all that I know Is changing now I wish I could slow things down You can't predict 'Cause nothing's set in stone A lesson learned A lesson that's too late for learning As I walk this lonely road The sun begins to fade There's many Gods and many ways But I worship the wind Now I could've done things better Didn't mean to be unkind And I could never cause you hurt The last thing on my mind Everything and all that I know Is changing now I wish I could slow things down You can't predict 'Cause nothing's set in stone A lesson learned A lesson that's too late for learning Steve Harris ‒ BassRichard Taylor ‒ VocalsDavid Hawkins ‒ Guitars, KeyboardsRichard Cook ‒ Drums (Tracks 1, 3, 7)Ian Roberts ‒ Drums (Tracks 5, 6, 8)Grahame Leslie ‒ GuitarsSimon Dawson ‒ DrumsBarry Fitzgibbon ‒ Guitars (Tracks 5, 6, 8)Thanks to upsilon667, shaloban for, brad sending these lyrics.
