1. AWAKE IN DREAMLAND
Awake in a dream
My mind can hear the war cries build in me
Trapped in this life
So hopeless
My dream is my last rest
Itâs my way out
Thereâs no where for me
My past was a nightmare
I canât feel my heart beat
TonightâŠ
Iâll try to find
A fairyland where we both can live
Though all I can do is dream my wishes
I believe someday Iâll get there
Loveâs never part of me
Another mind, another heart, another face
Donât know how many lovers when all I ever do is lose them all
Thereâs no place for me
My life is a nightmare
I canât feel my heart beat
TonightâŠ.
Iâll try to find
A fairyland where we both can live
Though all I can do is dream my wishes
When I hide from reality
Search for a light in the dark!
And Iâm under!
I believe someday Iâll get there!
(Instrumental)
Thereâs no hope for me
My future is a nightmare
I canât feel your heart beat tonight
So Iâll try to find
A fairyland where we both can live
Though all I can do is dream our wishes
When I hide from reality
Search for the starlight to show the way to somewhere
I believe someday weâll get there!
2. DON'T LOOK BACK!
Born in the dirge and slime of a harsh and worried world
No tender touch to comfort cold and frightened skin
To a woman too ignorant to know you were alive
Where is the hope for one so helpless to survive?
Shed blood and tears so you will pay
Her debt for the rest of your life
Never to feel
The tenderness
Loveâs innocence can bring
Your suffering will bring no end
To a hell not of your making
Thereâs no faithfulness, no hope
No love
In a world that doesnât care
Chorus
Given no choice so take the hand youâre dealt
Find the spirit to lift you from the dark
Play your numbers in a game of chance and chaos
Donât look back; just run for you know
Tâwas never where your heart belonged
Old barren woman seized her opportunity
Stealing the new-born
Womb still bleeding from the birth
Wretches donât care enough
To set injustice right
Just seeing ways to make
Improvements to their own lives!
Shed blood and tears so you will feel
Her pain âtil the end of your life
Never to know
The tenderness
Loveâs innocence can bring
Your suffering will bring no end
To this hell not of your making
Thereâs no charity, no truth
And no prayer
In a world that doesnât care
Chorus
Given no choice so take the hand youâre dealt
Find the spirit to lift you from the dark
Play your numbers in a game of chance and chaos
Donât look back; just run for you know
Tâwas never where your heart belonged
Instrumental break
Chorus
Given no choice but to take the hand youâre dealt
Find the spirit to lift you from the dark
Play your numbers in a game of chance and chaos
Donât look back; just run for you know
Thatâs never where your soul belongs
Repeat to fade
3. HEROES
I
I will be Queen
And you
You will be King
Though nothing will
Drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
And you
You can be mean
And I
I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers
And that is a fact
Yes we're lovers
And that is that
Though nothing
Will keep us together
We could steal time
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
For ever and ever
What d'you say?
(Guitars)
I
I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins
Like dolphins can swim
Though nothing
Will keep us together
We can beat them
For ever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes
Just for one day
I
I can remember
Standing
By the wall
And the guns
Shot above our heads
And we kissed
As though nothing could fall
And the shame
Was on the other side
Oh we can beat them
Forever and ever
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
I
I will be Queen
And you
You will be my King
Coz weâre lovers and that is a fact
Yes weâre lovers and that is that
We're nothing
And no one will help us
Maybe we're lying
Then you better not stay
But we could be safer
Just for one day
What dâyou say?
We could be Heroes
We could be Heroes
Just for one day
Weâre nothing and no one will help us
Maybe weâre lying, then you better not stay
We could be safer just for one day
4. SEVEN SISTERS (OF THE SEVENTH REIGN)
Seven Sisters of The Seventh Reign
Caress my scars, heal my pain
One beat of your wings dries my tears
Your bitter sweet kiss quells my fears
Smooth silken feathers bear our flight
To worlds where exist wrong nor right
Cloaks of secrecy hide the trail
Sisters locked the gates to The Holy Grail
"Expel the guilt of mine own crucifixion
Set me free of mine asphyxiation
No more to bear the stench of this evil madness;-
Or save the world from greed and mortal badness
Drive me away from this shame
Take me back to whence I came!"
(Guitars)
My heart beats its last in my chest
Heavy that I did not do my best
For the suffering child unto Him
Carries the burden of my sin
(To The PitâŠ!)
Exorcise my guilt for Thy Crucifixion
Set me free of self mortification
Feel no more the weakness of my flesh on cilice;-
Suffer this harsh world with all its torrid malice
Hide me away from blame
Deliver me to whence He came
Take to wing this soul of mine
Away from Dark to Light Divine
(Guitars)
Steal me away from my own shame
Forsake me not from whence He came
On my death knellâŠ!
5. GAIA HYPOTHESIS
Stirring anger moves the night
Shadows creeping through the rain
Torn by new light from the dawning moon
Crawling in a desert place
Where nothing grows or moves,
No one breathes or even dares to go!
Scratching in the dirt, I hear her thunderâŠ..
âI gave the world to you
While you thought nothing of it.
Behold what you have done!â (Gaia)
Mother forgive us, we know not what we can do! (Humankind)
Piercing black holes in her skin
Cutting, tearing at her lungs
Now she fights for every breath to live
Always taking what we want
Instead of what we need
Innocents must suffer at our hands!
Swallowed by the mire, I feel her sorrowâŠâŠ
âI gave the world to you
While you thought nothing of it.
Behold what you have done!â
Mother forgive us, we know not what we have begun!
(Musical break)
Ah, ah, ah! You donât hear me!
(Lullaby⊠after flute)
Oh dearest Gaia, beautiful one,
Can you ever find a way to forgive and heal
Scars we inflicted upon your purity and your natural beauty?
(Guitar)
âI gave this world to you
While you thought nothing of it.
Iâve given all I can give
Behold my poor children; look at what you have done!
I gave this world to you
And I thought nothing of it.
Behold, youâve stolen my trust!â
Mother forgive us, we knew not what we would become!
6. EROTOMANIAC OBSESSION
You, on my breath
You, in my sweat
You, in my blood
On my mouth!
You, in my eyes
You, in my head
You, in my heart
Consumed by you!
My Muse
Youâre my delusion
ThereâsâŠ
Only You
In my confusion!
Angel of the night
Purveyor of fright
To Gospels of Truth
You'll always run from
My dark love
You, on my breath
You, in my sweat
You, in my blood
Taste - my mouth!
You, in my eyes
You, in my head
You, in my heart
Consumed by you
My Muse
Youâre my delusion
Thereâs...
Only You
In my confusion!
You canât escape
Despite your hate
No affectionâs returned
For Erotomaniac
Obsession
I canât wake from my lurid delusions
To be faced with the stark, cold truth
Descending in the madness of love
It was always my destiny to go
I canât escape
Unrequited love
No affectionâs returned
In erotomania
Desireâs always there
Constantly craving
I endure all of this for
One touchâŠ..
Just one kiss!
Why don't you see me?
Why don't you love me
Like I love you?
You're my obesession
I only want to be with you....
You're my obsession!
7. ONE NIGHT IN A CENTURY
Is there a suitor who can take this part?
You must be brave and have a magical mind
One who'll be true to me; protect my heart
I'll stay alone until this I find
Ride with the wind
On your black stallion
Capture my soul
I'll be yours come what may
I've seen them all
Knights over centuries
They've come and gone
Like the stars in a day
We'll be together through good times and bad
I'll be your anchor; you'll find strength from me
Nothing will hold us back, as one we'll win
I'll be your maiden, you'll be my king
Ride with the wind
On your black stallion
Capture my heart
I'll be yours come what may
I've seen them all
Knights over centuries
They've come and gone
Like the stars in a day
(Guitars)
Ride with the wind
On your black stallion
Capture my mind
I'll be yours come what may
I'll wait for one night in a century
To be with you forever and a day
Forever and a day!
