1. THE DARK WHEEL (RADIO EDIT)

Dark wheel - tuning my head
Tune it clean, clear it of this world
Keep spinning now, don't let it rest
'Til the morning makes me move on

[Chorus:]
Turn me on
Spin the wheel that's rolling me along
See the dark wheel growing strong
Then leave me be
Stay away until this love is gone
And the wheel consumes you all

Dreams - they're nothing more but dreams
They take me over nightly
Making me untrue, making life untrue
It's a system of old faith, an older lore
That's why the wheel makes me colder

[Chorus]

Dark wheel can never stop
At times i feel like giving up
Dark wheel is here to stay
To make the world scream out his name

[Chorus]


2. SHADOW LORD

It's an early dawn
Light is being born
It's a time when you have time to
Think about your time
Ponder on you life
Gather all the thoughts you've been keeping in

You're the man of shades
Digging shallow graves
But you cannot hide there every day
It's time to make it clear
And release your fear
There is nothing to gain if you never try

Hear them cry out your name
You know they know it too
(It's) the conjuction of two worlds

Join the darkness with me
The shadow lord
Bring us all into one
And bind us all

We are born the same
We inhabit the shades
And we'd want to see to the other side
I know what you need
And it's not just greed
There's something we can't be on our own

Hear them cry out your name
You know they know it too
(It's) the conjuction of two worlds

Join the darkness with me
The shadow lord
Bring us all into one
And bind us all


3. DRAIN THE FOUNTAIN

This is a warning
For slithering sinners
And it's a calling
Sent to deliver
All of the wanting
And of the needing
Wanting to be free
Striving to live free

You might feel your well is dry
And the sun has let you fry
But it takes more than you thought
To have your say:

Where is it ending?
Can it be mended?
Blackening threshold
Stained by the black gold

If you have a meaning
Why do you keep on demeaning?
Killing the grieving
Is no way of thriving
When someone says this can't be forever
And begs you to consider the after
It's not in the bible
That doesn't make me a liar

[Chorus:]
Ooh the only thing they dream of
Is that they'll find the next well
Ooh and i pray for justice
When the right men are rewarded
They say their faith in god
Can clean their blackened blood
But if you saw it flowing
You'd never
Drain the fountain
Drain the fountain...

This is a warning
A warning for sinners
And it's a calling
Sent to deliver
All of the wanting
And of the needing
Wanting to be free
Striving to live free

[Chorus]

5. TRAIL OF FEARS

There is a place inside your head
That you don’t want to know
Where you go when you fall asleep
It is a dark place full of evil thoughts and evil deeds
And all the secrets that you keep

Once you tread down that path
You know there is no turning back
The time for you is running late
You try in vain to run and hide from your own inner self
But all you find there turns to hate

And in your sleep you burst ‘to tears
You’re running down the trail of fears
No chance of ever letting go
No-one but you must ever know

Another day you live your life as if it were the same
And deep inside you know it is
Another night, another dream, again you fail to see
Your own subconscious promises

Perhaps some day you’ll realise that your wish is your will
And that your dreams are common sense
Behind the curtain of your conscience
You must face the truth
Your weakness and your innocence

And in your sleep you burst ‘to tears
You’re running down the trail of fears
No chance of ever letting go
No-one but you must ever know

Oh, running down the trail of fears
Oh, let me drown in my tears

Oh, running down the trail of fears
Oh, let me drown in my tears
