1. CRIMSON STREETS

A shattered pane of glass
Explodes into a sun that glistens
A silent scream is heard
Throughout the world
But no one listens
A teardrop lights a spark
A flame that burns on
Through the years
A crystal ball that's dark and clouded
Hides the distant fears
You see it takes them away
Far away

The city streets
Beneath the neon lights
The city heat
It burns on through the night
The beckoning
Tall of darkness
A one way ticket

Reality
Like a blow right to your head
The dream you saw
Is lost the dream is dead
Reach for the mirror
All hope's not lost
Time will move on

Out on your crimson streets
What you gonna do
Gonna run
It takes over your soul
Do you believe when it touched you
It made your mind whole
Ihe answer doesn't lie in words
It's the fact the evil
Doesn't lie in the truth
It's the act

The light it fades
A chill runs down your spine
In the dark of night
There is no sense of time

The night it comes
Alive with snow-white wings
A death-black sky

Out on your Crimson streets


2. OUT OF THE NIGHT

Now alone was a small child
Much different from the rest
Tortured by the scenes of night
To demons & to witches
All he loved would fall prey
With his eyes closed he would fight

Out of the night
He ran
Out of the night
He ran

Now walking in a cold sweat
He laid & cried in fear
Again a night of torment had begun
Plagued by evil visions
Summoned by the dark
Leaving only with the sun

Darkness & pain
Why should they occur at the
Same time to torment
The mind of a child
In a dream none but he understands
what it means in this world
He had done nothing yet
To deserve the evil nightmares

It's over
The sun shines
Through bright in the sky
The morning has come
A small boy
With tears still forming in his eyes
Wonders why he is plagued
With the vision of pain


3. HEAVEN'S JUST ANOTHER WAY

You turn the switch
Ahint of light
The t.v. flickers on
Faint at first
You hear the sounds of praise
There he is all dressed in white
With diamonds head to toe
He stands & waves a bible
And he says

Heaven is
Just another way
That you save yourself
Eternal damnation
As for me
I work for the lord
Through your kind donations
He rolls a film of pain & death
Of starving people's lives
Your money goes to help them
So you're told "pick up the phone"
He smiles & says
"and give for them today"
He points the way with fingers
Bathed in gold
Heaven is just another way
That you save yourself
Eternal damnation
As for me I work for the lord
Through your kind donation


4. OBSESSION

Electricity a burst of heat
Can you feel it
In your eyes it burns so bright
Did you see it
Shockwave

Gonna find a way
To take you for my own
And you know
I'm gonna get you somehow
I'm gonna lay you right down

Sting of heat runs down your spine
You know you need me
I've been the eyes
Watching all along
Can you see me breakdown

Gonna find a way
To take you for my own
And you know
I'm gonna get you somehow
I'm gonna lay you right down
No!

Obsession,Obsession
No No No No liar!


5. THE CHALLENGE

Black & whites
Are rolling into the night
Sealing every avenue out
The smell of faded leather
Their breath turns to smoke
What was all the screaming about

They can't run anymore
Their time's running out
With nowhere to turn
Face the challenge

Though you've done nothing wrong
Tell me why do you feel
That you must run to live
Was that part of the deal
Wrong place & wrong time
Don't get set up to fall
Don't you see it's a game
Is life not worth that at all

They can't run anymore
Their time's runnung out
With nowhere to turn
Face the challenge

Fear turns into violence
Confusion to fear
Trapped in a cage
Of concrete & steel
If you went to them
Do you think they would hear
Still you never know 'till you try so
Deal (no deal)
They can't run anymore
Their time's running out
With nowhere to turn
Face the challenge
Your time's running out
Face the challenge

7. RA PARIAH

Never
It's over
Take me
Pariah

I am Ra
I am the rising sun
From the dawn of time & space
I come
Light the sky
With staff & sacred rod
I am Ra I am thy lord & god

Children of the Nile
Won't you live & see
What my strength & love have
Done for thee
To they upraised voices I appeal
Speak my name
And make me feel

Hear us Ra
Grant us life
Show us Ra thy power & might
Speak o Ra
Thy word is law
Sun to sun
Forever more

Children of the sand
Won't you find the way
Feel the power
Of Ra conquer today
Now as you pray there
Down on bended knee
Know the power of Ra
And what will be

Hear us Ra
Grant us life
Show us Ra thy power & might
Speak o Ra
Thy word is law
Sun to sun
Forever more

And it was written
So shall it be
That those not worthy of mercy
Under the sun shall be outcast
Lonely pariahs
Walking the desert sand
In a search for a final resting place

Now servants take this warning
And pay heed
And the power of Ra
Will shine on thee
Lighting up
The dark & blackest sky
Creating life where
Once all would die

Running & hunting for the world
You can't find anymore
Carrying the weak & laying
Them at heaven's door
With power & sacrifice
You'll be taken away
To fight with the darkness
Until your dying day
Pariah


8. BANE OF THE BLACK SWORD

Riding on to Bakshaan
Elric of Melnibone
Rune sword hanging at his side
Black as black a blade
can be hired for a purpose
He must cause Nikorn to fall
Sorcerer of Pan Tang
I will meet you
You will see my wrath
Queen Yishana will be mine again
Your soul will feed my blade

Stormbringer
Dyrim Tvar my old friend
forget the past just for awhile
Theleb K' aama I must stay
Envy not a task so vile
Magic of old will aide me
I can feel Stormbringer shake
Lords of winds I call you
Help me cause the earth to quake

Sorcere of Pan Tang
I will meet you
You will see my Wrath
Queen Yishana will be mine again
Your soul will feed my blade

Stormbringer
Feel my wrath
Feed my blade
As the battle of the air
Rages on in the sky
Stormbringer is unsheathed
Taking enemy lives
To the sorcerer's
Den Elric now has come
Blade passes through flesh
Now the deed is done


9. MARCH OF FIRE

The sun arose through
The fog of the morning
In the still there was heard
No sound
The city rose as mountain come
Forth from the ground

Afar off warning through faint
Broke the silence
The distant sound of marching
Was heard
Invaders from the north
Advancing to burn

Oh the fire raged on
Oh it burned far & wide
Now with flames pride was lost

Fire
Tears of the conquered they cried
Ashes now left of castles
And so with valor they died

The people knew as they watched
Dust arising
A thousand men marching as one
Their homes would burn before
Dark stole the sun

A mother wept as she held her
Daughter
A father told his son not to cry
They watched the torch being lit
With hate in their eyes
Oh the fire raged on
Oh it burned far & wide
Now with flames pride was lost

In the wind the blaze
Was contagious
While soldier killed those
In way of their task
A city once tall & regal was
Ashen & black

A mother wept as she
Held her daughter
A father told his son not to cry
They watched the torch being lit
With hate in their eyes
