1. NAMESAKE

The old throne,
Claimed through blood and death
The old king, head of the campaign
Strength and honor
Values he passed to his son
And upon his death,
His legacy secure and strong

[Chorus]:
A heavy burden born
By men both old and young
The question lies before
What will become?
Will the kingdom fall
Into oblivion
The weight of the crown
will either raise you up
Or tear you down

Blood runs boiling
As the son climbs to his seat
His father’s words
Echo through his being
A vow he pledges
Before the gods
The line won’t ever break
His son will rise above

[Chorus]

And as the years pass
A new liege is born
So much like the elder king
Yet un-tempered and volatile

Now in his twilight years
His reign is soon to end
His son now stands ready
To take his rightful place
But fear and doubt, they plague the boy
His thoughts a darkened forest
For living in the shadow
Of the namesake he adores

[Chorus]

Raise or
Tear you
Down


2. IN THE ROAD OF DESIRE

I shut my eyes
Let go of all that surrounds
Dopamine firmaments
Beneath the tides
I can control how I drown
From two worlds a single one ends

[Chorus]:
Am I brave?
Am I vain?
Am I sane?
Or am I attached to my suffering?
A magnetic macrocosm alive
All the stolen moments
A war is born in the roar of desire
I will conquer myself yet

A wound declaimed
Ignites the full body flame
And you’re fixed inside me
You’re always inside me
You’ll be my end
Oh what a glorious end
I can’t tell what’s real
Must I fall to feel?

[Chorus]

Lost in my own ocean but found
In another world
I’d give my all to find salvation
Yet for all lost, what have I won?
I’d give my all to find salvation
Yet for all lost, who am I now?

I’d sell my soul to find salvation’s mercy
Familiar ghost
Come take me away

She lives in my dreams
Devours me whole
When I can withdraw no longer
She will not let go
She lives in my dreams
Devours me whole
When I can’t breathe any longer
She will not let go

A war is born in the roar of desire
I will conquer myself yet


3. LYCAN LUST

Moonlight
Shining through my window
Gleaming on the bed where
My love no longer sleeps
Cold nights
Remind me of his warm arms
Embracing me, a feeling
I may not know again
The war has taken him from me

[Chorus]:
Yet as I sleep
I dream of when we
Kissed in the rain
How I’d love to gaze again
Into his enchanting eyes
Under darkness of night
A monster cries
To the full moon in the sky
Please watch over him
For as the daylight dims
I’m fearing for his life
Let the battle be won
God grant him be done
Return my love to me

Silver
A ring is all he
Left me, a memory
That's burning a hole into my heart
Maybe
The terror of the village
The beast that haunts the forest
Prevented his return
Has it stole my love from me?

[Chorus]

Moonlight
Shining through my window
Gleaming on the bedside
Calls me out to play
A rust'ling
Just beyond the trees
A figure is emerging
My love has returned to me

Run, run love run,
Run, RUN!

And he cried out in pain
As I held my love again
While the animal came alive
Under darkness of night
With the full moon in the sky
The beast awoke and took his life
I’m tearing and ripping
As my heart’s rejoicing
Tasting you once again
Try to run, but you’re done
For the demon has won
You’ll never leave me again


4. WINTERS COME TO CALL

Broken wings
Lying frozen in the dark
Poisoned by the wicked words
You spoke to me so carelessly
Sweet embrace turned bitter
By your sudden greed
Daring me to speak and shatter
All that we have come to be
Is this what’s to come, dear seer?
Shed to me your light
Desperate words and vicious lies
Designed to cover up your pride

Do you see the fear in my eyes?
Has our winter come to call?

[Chorus]:
I shake the chains that bind me
I won’t be broken down
This crimson cage is crumbling
To the ground
I feel a storm is gaining
Is this the end that’s nearing?
Your craven eyes won’t tame me
Anymore

Tell me now
Are you happy, are you proud
Of bleeding me through not too long forgotten
Scars of secret shame?
The angel of my dreams
Is the demon in my sheets
Testing me and taunting me
Forever in my memory

You play a dangerous game
Are you ready for the cold?

[Chorus]

Just say goodnight
Dream that all is still alright
I won’t be waiting in the morning

I’m done
The fire’s burning
The damage done

Snow falling on the ashes
Bringing to me new life
Starlight surrounding
Keeping me alive

I stare into the void
I revel in the dark
With nothing more to give
This life is mine to live!

[Chorus]


5. BLINK

Blind obsession
Draws you in
Look out Sparrow
The writing is on the wall
In the darkness
Behind silent cries
They are waiting
Merely biding time

Heed the warnings
See the signs
Look out Sparrow
The angels are coming for you
Keep your eyes
Trained at all times
For should you blink
You will surely die

[Chorus A]:
Cold as stone and unforgiving
Hungering for your soul
There’s no salvation now
Those you love are sure to weep
For who you were
Cause one touch, and then you’re history

[Chorus B]:
So don’t blink
Don’t even blink
Blink and you’re dead
Cause they are fast, faster than
You, you can believe
So don’t turn your back
Don’t look away, and don’t

Lonely creatures
Quantum locked
Look out Sparrow
The winged murderers await
Ever searching
How to get inside
Free the time lord
Let the blue box fly

Staring at you
Following your every move
It’s you who holds the key to feed forever
Close your eyes, it’s only time
You’re free to live your life
But one touch will drain your years away

[Chorus B]

Crying eternally
Preying relentlessly
Craving your energy
Stealing your moments away

Secret messages are hiding there
Before your eyes
The doctor’s words are meant for you
So listen well

Say farewell to all that’s near and dear
This familiar world, it’s no longer yours

[Chorus A]
[Chorus B]

Blink



6. FADING

I’ve watched all the nameless faces pass away
As the autumn leaves begin to fade
Smothering my sanity
This constant masquerade
Caught inside the hollow notion of
Of never fading

Won’t you come and release my lonely heart
Denied the life I will never start
Trapped behind this painted face of porcelain
Your eternal doll, weeping and raging within

Endless echoes in my mind
Fated to live under lonely starlight
Waking with the night
Forever caught inside

[Chorus A]:
It never fades away
Still driving me insane
Always bleeding inside
You will bleed for me tonight

Stare into my cold and graying eyes
All around me changes as I'm static in this frame
Locked together, doomed to live in hatred
I will sever all with which you raped me

Hold your breath now it's time to pay
For the life you stole away
Beg me darling, your death is nigh
Kneel as your body decays

[Chorus A]:

[Chorus B]:
Just go away
I won't stay in this place
Hear me cry
It’s time to die

And as I sit hear waiting
For our time together to end forever
I just smile and softly whisper
"Goodnight dear father"

And as your body drains, I step away
I finally release my pain
I settle this plight
But still I wonder why

[Chorus A]
[Chorus B]

The pain never goes away
Always driving me insane
Never fades away
You’ll bleed for me tonight


7. EXHUMED

I’ll bring you out of the wreckage
Hide your eyes from the light
Blood has wakened the dead again
Come my children, arise
O' unholy night

Within this hour we pray
Whisp'ring dark verses beckons their souls
Spirits rise from the grave to play
Sleep my angels no more
O’unholy night

We exhume,
The souls of the afterlife,
And may they bless,
This unholy awakening

I’ll bring you out of the wreckage
Hide your eyes from the light
Blood has wakened the dead again
Come my children, arise
O' unholy night
O' unholy night
O' unholy night


8. BLOOD AND FIRE

Last of an undying line
Blood of Valyria
On dragonstone
The prophecy foretold
Born amidst the salt and smoke
So young and unaware
But to the sky
The dragon will arise

[Chorus]:
Let's ride
For blood and fire
Azor Ahai reborn
Let's ride
For blood and fire
For I am Stormborn

Half a world away
The queen of the Dothraki Sea
The fire wakes
Her children from their sleep
The red waste before her
See the fear within her eyes
Her people fall
But she will not be undone

[Chorus]

Our dragon queen
Come break our chains
Our dragon queen
Rain fire on our enemies

[Chorus]

Let's ride away
For blood and fire
Azor Ahai reborn
