1. THIS CIRCUIT VISION

They told me what I should do
They gave me a way to get to you
You never stood a chance
The screen is never truly blank and I can't hide my mind Behind lie words that tear inside of me
Their faces find me anywhere and in my room
I feel their stare
The walls are cold they shimmer blue
Their vision hides inside of you

This Circuit Vision

My memories fade and I appear Submerged
And lost in digit beams I confine myself within myself
A circuit glows I feel the need
An interface 'tween man/machine
They boot my mind and steal my dreams
As they feed me deep inside

Fractal code interlocking my spine
Feeding new format breaking mine down
System runs steady
Colour code true ID# strands altered
Connecting me to you
...This Circuit Vision

You couldn't dream you had no mind
But now my eyes see only what you feed me
Conversely seen it's all so clear
Behind the news they're always there
The integration's just begun
I make my move when they say so
My eyes feed data they must know
A night of secrets by the screen is
All the programming I need


2. BUT ANGELS SHINE

From a glade was heard songs of angels
that blessed the land
Now the time of their arrival was predicted years ago
And now they shine
In the time before the ravings
Of the dark cloaked men began
Men had lived in peace for ages
And they'd lived from of the land
Now their lives all changed from better
To a state still growing worse
And the ravings of the cloaked men
Promised darkness in return
But angels shine

See the bitter heart sow darkness summon clouds
To hide the sun and they tower up before you
And they cover up the sky
Hear them sing their songs of hardship under moon
That none can see
Hear them chant, yes hear them raving
For the tide to turn on me
But angels shine

Then from far away from a land unknown came a man
So thin you could see his bones 'said when I am gone
And the night is still and a few good hearts
All unite in will then they pray
Along with the prayers of mine
And the dark men fall as the angels shine


3. A MENDED RHYME

He sat there so idle just sat on the ground
I watched as he mumbled but I heard no sound
I dared not go closer I dared not at first
But somehow I got there

My son said the father I can not explain
The reason I left you has caused me much pain
I dared not come closer I dared not at first
But somehow I got here

Sometimes I hear them in my mind
Dare I join them now
It's a mended rhyme at a preset time
Join them now or lose them forever
A silent mime
The final chime
Just join them now

He did not lift his eyes just sat there and cried
Now I know the words I heard him say
I joined him on my knees and then even I cried
He wiped away my tears that's when I heard him say...


4. THE TRADER OF SOULS

Oh Merchant, yes merchant
The trader of souls
The bringer of darkness damnation and cold
In secret betrayal with cunning and lies he steals you,
Deceives you
There's fire in his eye

A strange world of neon of light by your side
There's paradise waiting
The stranger remembers the lines in your face
Through ages that follow his due stays the same
Collecting his children still fire in his
The burning desire consuming their minds
A strange world of neon of light by your side
There's paradise waiting

A long way from grandeur
It's passing you by merchant,
Oh merchant an angel of light
The trader of souls
Believe me he's lying The trader of souls
Believe me he's dying


5. TIME OF NO SUN

Not long ago on a world not so far
The king sent four riders pure in their hearts
Search for the spirit search for the lamb
All of my children rise
It's time to leave the royal fleet is here
So be the truth that none of you may enter lest the Royal Crown you bear in your heart

The court and the king and his followers
Stood aboard awaiting the riders to gather them all
First came the Lion then came the lamb
The fire of the spirit has now left the land

Wrapped in the fumes of the underworld
All ships leave up rises five and
they claim all that is and will be
Search for the riders
Find us the lamb
Bring us the spirit
His heart in our hands

Seconds before the departure
All eyes fell upon a ragged man
Torn and wild-eyed he turned facing the crowd
Raising his staff to the sky and these are his words
Now the stars may still shine and horizons be clear
But the spirit is gone
Come the time the time of no sun

Spirits of five grasp control of the world
Knowing here after
Follow the ages of peace
Under strict supervision
Hear me ye prophets ye spirits of five
Hear when I speak of starvation and strife

Their prophets performing an act all will see
And worship their master
Few will escape most are drowned in the eternal sea
A time has just ended your work has begun
Now come what will be the time of no sun


6. THE DRAGON TIDE

Watching the hills from the tower up north he sang,
No he bellowed a song to the glory
To the power of Karak Azul
His heart now uneasy it would not be stilled
A sickening stench an odour of greenskin like
So many years before

Trollslayers, trollslayers mighty and proud
Trollslayers now meet your fate
In this battle you die for you surely will die

The dragon tide will sweep you away
The dragon tide will darken this day
Lord, King, see the skies
Oh, worse this our doom
Accursed be this day
It's memory be black
Riding the winds dragons fly

They drop 'hind our lines
They strike from above
Clansmen stand proud
Stare death in the eye
Riding the winds dragons fly


7. GODDESS OF CHAOS

An ageing craft of unknown origin
Ancient beacon is calling them warning them of...
In space no one hears your scream
Left alone with your cries

A forelorn world don't know what they're after
Company secrets betraying them, selling them all
In space no one hears your scream
Left alone with your cries

Strange things happen and strange
She may seem the Goddess of chaos and merciless dreams
Hits his face a creature of madness
Purestrain warrior inside him, it's taken aboard
Inside him grows unknown breed
Ash alone knows the truth Kane arises,
He stands anew first of seven to die

This foreign life aggressive and deadly
Committed killer, stalking them
Hunting them down
The time is set for final destruction
Officer Ripley is launched into nothing and stars
In space no one hears your scream
Left alone with your cries


8. THE VACANT LOT

Underneath lie barely seen and rarely touched
All things untold
Stone upon stone so foul, so cold
A shadow of old
Into the night
Driven by what none can see
Scarcely bound but hardly free

A shadow of old
A story untold
A gathering rot
The vacant lot

A stray dog send shivers down your spine
The remnant wall stand ever the same
Hair of the dog won't help you at all

The street's all deserted
We'll swallow you whole
Our minds intermingle a raven so black
A spiralling stairway keep calling you back
Tentacles, tentacles tighten their grip
Downwards in circles the deadliest trip
We mould you impassive all tainted and sore
Abiding our master keep calling you Tentacles,
Tentacles tighten their grip
Downwards in circles the deadliest trip


9. GUST OF THE INQUISITION

I remember his eyes as he entered the hall
My kingdom was lost and he spoke unto all
We see here the signs of witchcraft
And I know these words to be true
The devil besieged you by means of this puppet his tool
And he pointed at me

Four years has now passed and
I've seen no light no hope for the truth
Or a glimpse of the world I once ruled
Of all that I used to cherish of all that
I used to do remains but the prayers
And my faith in the spirit of truth and he pointed at me

Guest of the inquisition
I'm a guest of the inquisition
Guest of the inquisition
They stage the play
When it all began I for one can't tell
But I first saw those eyes seven years ago
I never knew their true intent
It strikes me now how blind I must have been
One after one we all fell strangely ill
And floating lights were seen

Awaiting the fall I guess I should have known
The secretive ways of the
Master Inquisitor
A sinister mind conspires
a mind numbed by power and greed
Now left in this hole I see eyes and they're staring at me Yes, they're staring at me...
