1. THE DARK

Listen,do you hear a sound
Although you're by yourself?
You hear me climbing up the stairs
You dare not look into
The dark outside your window
You know that I'll be there

The wind whispers my name
In a voice that will freeze your heart
Welcome to my domain
I'll tear your senses apart
I am fear

I am the eyes that gleam
Out of the darkness
The howl that chills your spine
The claw that taps upon
Your bedroom window
To say you will be mine

The wind whispers my name........

You may sleep safe tonight
Wrapped snug and warm
But you will hear me call
A footstep on your grave
May cause alarm
But don't worry it's only me
Waiting for you

The wind howls my name
In a voice that will raise the dead
Welcome to my domain
The kingdom of the mad
I am fear


2. SHADOWS OF THE PAST

The cracked illusion splinters sunlight
Back into the sky
A myriad golden colours echo dreams
Of times gone by
Until a blind man passing by
Tramples on the remnants of
The shadows of the past

As the dream fades,the queen of spades
Starts to smile
The joker dances before the court
For a while
The king resplendent in his robes
Sits majestically on the throne
As the night hides another lonely cry

Unknowing the blind man travels on
Oblivious of the damage done
Not noticing the the shimmering reflections
Slowly die
As the night hides another lonely cry


3. THE PROPHET

Blasphemer
Hanging from a cross
Can't you see that you were wrong?
You went too far but now you're lost
And death will still your song

The wrath of the gods is coming down on you
You are rejected and reviled
The wrath of the gods is coming down on you
But why do you still smile?

You dare to question authority
You have defied god's written law
You say you ll lead us to a better way
You presume to rule as all

The wrath of the gods is coming down on you

Blasphemer
Hanging from a cross
Please tell me you were wrong
You went too far and now you're lost
Surely death will still your song

The wrath of the gods is coming down on you
You are rejected and reviled
The wrath of the gods is coming down on you
But why do you still smile?


4. YESTERDAY'S CHILDREN

A man on the tv is reasoning why
Here in this room we're saying goodbye
The tears in your eyes are no longer concealed
We're closer now than we've ever been
Deserted streets greet our eyes
As the dusk slowly darkens the summer skies
Black-faced windows return our stare
As we turn to each other to forget despair

Mama put the children to bed
Time now to think ahead to tomorrow

The man on the tv is talking again
But the record is stuck,what he says is the same
Debating a crisis but all is in vain
The picture starts fading,the crisis remains
Yesterdays children have said goodbye
As tomorrow's heroes are sent to die
The dogs of war reach further afield
As the reaper harvests a total yield

Mama put the children to bed
No time to think ahead
The World's on fire


5. DRIVE ME CRAZY

Long legs sprayed with silk
Blond hair and blue eyes
Fur coat transparent blouse
You tantalise
Seen you so many times
Got to get to know you
Made a vow you will be mine
Before the night is through

I need your lovin'.I need your love
You're drivin me crazy
I need your lovin'.I need your love
Give it to me

You are a high class woman
With a mind of your own
But honey I won't rest
Until I get you alone
Expensive lady come with me
Stay by my side
And we will touch the stars
Upon this magic carpet ride

I need your lovin'..........


6. DAY TRIPPER (THE BEATLES COVER)

Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out now
She was a day tripper
One way ticket, yeah
It took me so long to find out
And I found out

She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there
She's a big teaser
She took me half the way there, now
She was a day tripper
One way ticket, yeah
It took me so long to find out
And I found out
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Tried to please her
She only played one night stand
Tried to please her
She only played one night stand, now
She was a day tripper
One way ticket, yeah
It took me so long to find out
And I found out

Day tripper, day tripper, yeah


7. THE CHILD

The boy has grown up
The child has died
The scales have fallen
From his eyes
He sees right through
Your tangled lies

A blindman cries out
"I see the light"

The hand of friendship
Fades in the night
The web of darkness
Obscures all sight
Hate renews its
Onward flight

A blindman cries out
"I see the light"
