1. THE END

Fill the void up with doubt
Is that the price we pay?
To forgive ourselves the steps we take
The surrender of reason
The road to hell is paved
With a blind eye turned we become slaves

We're trapped in the madness - I can't believe it is gone
We are, we are the lost in line on the march into the end
We're lost in the madness - I can't believe it is gone
We are, we are the lost in line on the march into the end

How did we get here?
We are all to blame
Is there anything left to be saved?
We can't unmake this
Only memories remain
As our suicide soundtrack plays

We're trapped in the madness - I can't believe it is gone
We are, we are the lost in line on the march into the end
We're lost in the madness - I can't believe it is gone
We are, we are the lost in line on the march into the end

The lessons we learned and lost to time
Will sow our regrets in the end

We're trapped in the madness - I can't believe it is gone
We are, we are the lost in line on the march into the end
We're lost in the madness - I can't believe it is gone
We are, we are the lost in line on the march into the end

We won't stop - We will fall in line
The lost marching into the end

We can win - We can stop in time
The lost marching into the end


2. (WE ARE) THE NEW REVOLUTION

Feast your eyes on the uprising - Take a stand
The pieces are adding up
A new religion for the uninvited - Take hold the flame
The ashes have had enough

Every day we see new beginnings
We won't sit by to take what we're given
This is our time to be more

Stand up! Be counted! Find your place in the new revolution
Stand tall! Scream it loud now! Raise your hands!
We are the new revolution

Feel the hunger of generations - Feed the flame
The pressure is building up
We hold the key to our new horizons - Stake your claim
It can't keep from blowing up

Every day we're closer to winning
This is our time, the chance that we're given
We'll push till we raise our flag high

Stand up! Be counted! Find your place in the new revolution
Stand tall! Scream it loud now! Raise your hands!
We are the new revolution
Hey! Hey! New revolution

We can't go on this way - Got to drop this delusion
The fear they breed to keep us meek has reached its conclusion
I see into a new resolution
We'll end our need on them to feed us our own fate

Every day we get new beginnings to change what we are
We get to decide what we'll be, who we are
This chance that we're given
Seize on this day, it is ours

Stand up - Be counted - Raise your hands
We are the new revolution

Stand up! Be counted! Find your place in the new revolution
Stand tall! Scream it loud now! Raise your hands!
We are the new revolution
Hey! Hey! New revolution


3. RISE

In the service of kings I stand
For centuries I preserved the coven
The pride of all men
The kingdom-wide compels me
To honor their names and faith

A new doctrine came forth that day
To end a strife, to relieve a burden
My intent was pure, the king's was not
Noble my act, he deceived to shame my name

How was I so blind to see?
I must call on the dead I've served
I command you to...

Rise! Rise! Oh rise!
Rise! Rise! Oh rise!

Made victim of fates unseen
I must work to restore the truth

The king sought change to topple the balance
Dispense with those that stand to impede his reign

Brilliant the scheme the plain he laid
But the price for betrayal must be paid so...

Rise! Rise! Oh rise!
Rise! Rise! Oh rise!
Rise!


4. ASYLUM HARBOUR

(Instrumental)


5. COMING OF THE STORM

A man stands with a new constitution
He knows his path is laid
The crown jewel of a new evolution
Lost in the role he's cast to play

A puppet to his fate
Carry forth the plan that's made

Give way to the wave of delusion
Ordained to change the faith
Pay no mind to what's behind the curtain
Don't try the truth to make your case

We'll say it has no base
We've found truth a hiding place

It's the rise before the fall
It's the end of all that was
The dark before the dawn
And the coming of the storm

Before all hope is lost
We fight to carry on
In the dark before the dawn
And the coming of the storm

It's the rise, the fall, the end of it all
The grand design of a managed fall
They fleece our pride for the curtain call
The enemies of the sane

It's the rise before the fall
It's the end of all that was
The dark before the dawn
And the coming of the storm

Before all hope is lost
We fight to carry on
In the dark before the dawn
And the coming of the storm


6. TRAGEDY

Faith abandons me
This love was to be forever
Lost in a moment

How could this be Fate's twist for me?
Crippled in reality
My heart was betrayed
My soul in decay
Buried in my sorrow

Burning to take from you
The life that you stole from me

Now I am writing your tragedy
Sowing your destiny
I am righting this tragedy
Freeing this hell in me

Reason fades from me
This love was to be forever
I'm lost in this moment

No understanding
Fates reckoning
The pieces of me must rebuild
I pray in my dreams she's returned to me
My only salvation
'Till then, I'll be...

Burning to take from you
The life that you stole from me

Now I am writing your tragedy
Sowing your destiny
I am righting this tragedy
Freeing this hell in me

It's raining my sadness
My world just disappeared
I'm trapped in this madness
'Till my love brings you back to me


7. SAY WHEN

Stop screaming - I'm still breathing
I just can't shed my skin
You're feeding my weakness
Somewhere I lost myself

Giving in to giving up
Forever is not enough

Reaching my final bend
Reaching my last defence
When will this hell ever end?
Waiting for you to just say when

I once loved - Used to care
Poisoned my heart with shame
We're stealing Death's sweet kiss
All meaning has gone away

Giving in to giving up
Why won't God just give up?

Reaching my final bend
Reaching my last defence
When will this hell ever end?
Waiting for you to just say when
Just say when

Could this be the end of us?
The dreams we shared that turned to dust
My demons scream inside my head over and over
The drugs, the crime, the fear, the pain
We can not win the end of games
I am giving up

Reaching my final bend
Reaching my last defence
When will this hell ever end?
Waiting for you to just say when


8. BREAK THE CYCLE

There's a war inside my head
It's getting the best of me
I'm finding it hard to separate
The truth from your legacy
When I'm drinking myself numb
I come to believe
That this is the gift and the emptiness
That's all you gave to me

Sometimes I think I could break
Down inside
Too many times I lose this fight
Getting hard to live this life
I can't hide the wreckage inside
It comes to light
Now I've got to stay alive to break the cycle

When the world is closing in she's all I ever need
The taste of her kiss it does me in
And brings me to my knees
When I'm lost inside my head I fight just to breath
I'm giving in to the battle within
The curse you left for me

Sometimes I think I could break
Down inside
Too many times I lose this fight
Getting hard to live this life
I can't hide the wreckage inside
It comes to light
Now I've got to stay alive to break the cycle

I can't hide these feelings inside me
I can't run away from your ghost
Now I try each day to survive this
I have got to stay alive
I have got to break the tide

Down inside
Too many times I lose this fight
Getting hard to live this life
I can't hide the wreckage inside
It comes to light
Now I've got to stay alive
Now I've got to win this fight
And break the cycle


9. NOTHING IS FOREVER

You say "I do"
I say "I'll try"
But these words I can't deny
It won't come easy
No it won't come easy

Tied to the past like a ball and chain
Breaking free from all the pain
It won't come easy
No it's never easy

But with some space and time
We can leave the past behind

Nothing is forever
Arid everything must end
But if nothing is forever
Then when does never begin?


10. PRAY

Too many lay silent
No course they say
Too many decided
Let come what may
Gave rise to a tyrant
In cloaks of gray
Now forces assembled
Let come what may

A battle for cause, the men on the field
Take heed and...

Pray
Oh pray

And so it is
That starts this day
A nation united
Let come what may
Awash in blood
To end this way
For freedoms reprise
Let come what may

A battle for cause, the men on the field
Take heed and...

Pray, oh pray
Pray, oh pray
They pray

Let God's will be done
Let come what may

Pray, oh pray
Pray, oh pray
They pray
Oh pray


11. IN THE DARK

Desperate and scheming
I sit alone in an empty room
Struggle to find the mercy but never do
My heart's full of sorrow
But this path I did not choose
You made your bed, I'll make you lie in it too

My soul's on fire - My mind's a bitter mess
You got one over on me but never again
Never see me coming until it's too late

I will see you laughing along the way
But I will see you in the dark

Stuck in this moment
Time just melts away
My only salvation is watching your life slip away
My mind's a razor - My aim is surely true
My body calm waiting to tear into you

The clock is ticking - The time is close at hand
Yours is running out - That was never part of your plan
Never see me coming lost along the way

I will see you laughing along the way
But I will see you in the dark

I will see you, I will see you laughing along the way
I will see you in the dark

I will see you, I will see you laughing along the way
I will see you in the dark

I will see you begging and pleading
Your life will be mine
I will see you, I will see you
In the dark


12. LAST CALL FOR LIVING

We've had our backs against the wall so many times
And every time we fought back stronger
We sold our souls to live this life that you desire
But the devil won't wait much longer

Forget about the past
You never know which moment will be your...

Last call, last call for living
Last call, last call for life
Last call, last chance for giving
And we're living on the edge of a knife

We held our own against a world that doesn't dream
Lived fast on time that we had borrowed
We'll forge a new design on all that we believe
And celebrate our new tomorrow

Forget about the past
You never know which moment will be your...

Last call, last call for living
Last call, last call for life
Last call, last chance for giving
And we're living on the edge of a knife
