1. CRY OF OUR NATION

There's no beginning there will be no end
'Til every enemy becomes a friend
The will fall on the battlefield that we defend
To the cry of our nation

There's something in the air
Something strange and ever magical
Can you feel it in child
The thunder is the banging of the drums
We will freeze you with our stare
We will steal you blood and bone
When the Serpent Queen commands
She will haunt you with my moan

God will not save you from the throne
God will not save you

There's no beginning there will be no end
'Til every enemy becomes a friend
The will fall on the battlefield that we defend
To the cry of our nation

It's only make believe
It's only in the dreams of every child
That we learn to breathe,
To share our lonely prison of denial
We will strike at every heart,
That abandons us to pain
We will make you sing out loud
We will wash away your shame

God will not save you from the flame
God will not save you

Oh peace will come to those who wait
Love will fly away
Peace will come
To those who wait

God will not save you from the flame
God will not save you
God will not answer to your name
God will not save you

There's no beginning there will be no end
'Til every enemy becomes a friend
The will fall on the battlefield that we defend
To the cry of our nation


2. BETRAY MY HEART

One little kiss
For all your secrets
One for every spell you cast
Turn the page to find a potion
That wont cure an aching heart
I’ll cry a tear of sadness
Every single time we touch
But you will not set me free
Not before my blood to much

Though I begged for you to leave me
Cut the cord that ties us true
Still you weave your magic further
And I find I’m bound to you
Never taste the brew that binds you
For your done with everything
Poisoned ivy, blood red rose
And every curse that goes with it

Look it is the road to heaven
And its smoothly paved
Misery the truth of sinners
Never to be saved

Betray my heart
With your dark fire
I cannot leave me in desire
Betray my heart
It brings me under
You cannot break this spell I’m under
Betray my heart

I have played each ace and joker
I have played a fragile maid
I have tried to heal your demons
Left you lonely I have strayed
But each way I play me cards I cannot find the winning hand
Cannot leave your love behind me
Cannot leave this better land

Miserys the truth of sinners
Never to be saved

Betray my heart
With your dark fire
I cannot leave me in desire
Betray my heart
It brings me under
You will not break this spell I’m under

One little kiss for all your secrets
One for every bruise I get
One for those who tie us down to every broken love affair
Take the gun and pull the trigger
Still the magic flows and burns
Still I hope to take each other
Still the hungry wolves returns

Miserys the truth of sinners
Never to be saved

Betray my heart
With your dark fire
I cannot leave me in desire
Betray my heart
It leaves me under
You cannot break tis spell I’m under


3. KISSING THE KNIFE

Oh where you are from
You think it's better than here
But you are wrong
Maybe I'm not being clear

All games that start in the night
End at the edge of a cliff
And you won't even fight
But bruise and withdraw like a fist

Crawling around on you knees
And you think you're first

The blade of the beast
Is a mighty fine spirit to host

All you dreams are sold
You and your counterfeit life

You won't be told
But you're just kissing the knife

Oh where you are from
I'm not surprised that you're ill
It's been too long
To ever find God in a pill

All dreams that start with a blade
End with a noose round your wrist
And you always betrayed you heart
With a cold blooded kiss

Baby that's one thing
I've got that you'll never have
Baby that's one thing I've got

All your dreams are sold
You and your counterfeit life
You won't be told
But you're just kissing the knife


4. JUST A LIE

I've thought it over
I don't want you to be around
This four-leaf clover
Is poisonous, it brings me down

When I'm lying in my bed
I feel you next to me
When I think of what you said
Then I can hardly breathe

This is not war
This is just goodbye
This is not truth
This is just a lie
There's no way
That you're leaving
There's no way
That you're killing me
There's no way
That I'm bleeding
Your broken heart
Will set my free

I hate your silence
I hate the way you think you care
I hate tomorrow
Because I know you will be there

When I think of how you live
That woman on you arm
I have nothing else to give
But I can do you harm

This is not war
This is just goodbye
This is not truth
This is just a lie

Darkness encroaches
To my lone cravings
I am born wanton
I am born broken


5. DARK STAR

Once there was a man who lived
A thousand centuries
Just to see what all this would become
Soon he saw the whole, all eventualities
Never took his eyes from the sun

As the years unfold and the sun grows
Colder and the moon
Becomes a ghostly serenade
Never to grow old and never wonder
What the greatest journey
Would become in days

Under the sea of blood
Under the sea of blood

Oh my salvation, you are my dark star
I will become what other dread to be
And so the stars exploded
Into the blackest void
And all was left to dust and light

He came to see destruction
Upon a noble steed
But all he saw was endless night

Once there was a girl who lived
A thousand centuries
Never found a friend to call her own
Soon she turned to ice,
a mountain of indignity
Couldn't bare the awful years alone


6. LONG LIVE THE KING

I heard the dragon call his name
And I didn't like the sound
Never thought he'd feel such pain
Never thought to drag him down

But the story was a lie
And it's killing us inside
So we stand against his pride
We can never run and
Hide from the dragon
Bury it's selfish needs
Hide from the dragon
Bury it's lawless deeds

Long Live The King
We will remember
That every moment we are
Running our of time

Long live the king
We will remember
Long live the king
Long live the king

I heard the dragon had his way
And I shed a tear for us
For the years he had to pay
For the strength and love and trust

Stand true mighty warriors of the condemned

(There's no reason to be frightened
We're just passing through the lightning)


7. THE CIRCLE

(Instrumental)


8. MY PERFECT ENEMY

(Instrumental)


9. HEARTLESS

So my friend it comes to this,
You stand below the precipice!
You are looking up at me, I'm leaning on the breeze.
You think you cannot break my fall!
I blame myself for wanting more!

Though my love is blind,
My eyes are open every time I hurt you!

[Chorus:]
It's not your fault you cannot love me;
You are not to blame!
I never told you I was heartless, I'm heartless!
I though you'd be a stronger master, so I took your sword!
You're not the bringer of disaster – I'm heartless!

Well my friend, to tell the truth
I love you every way I can,
I was broken long ago by an evil cunning man.
I think we've done our very best
To fill the hollow in my chest!

Though your heart is strong,
I won't remain to see it broken longer!

[Chorus]

And when I dream, I feel the beat ...
The flutter makes me hopeful!
What mighty fears of love's deceit ...
All distant lies and memories!
Memories......!

No more tears or pain!
My friend you know you're better off without me!

[Chorus]


10. OUR FORGOTTEN LAND

This is the last time we will speak,
We have no words left for tomorrow!
All of these years we've been alone,
Waiting for your call to return us home.

Now we know that time left us far behind!

[Chorus:]
We buried our children, we planted the barren sand,
We were faithful! We fought for our kingdom,
We fought for you sword in hand
Our forgotten land!

Now that the winds have come to change all the broken oaths
They are silenced!
Never a king, never a prince will regain our trust,
Every hope is dust!

Now we know that kings bribe with broken rings!

[Chorus]

We come here in peace but you must not forget
All of your people who live in regret!
All of the hardship and all of the pain
While you lived in splendour, enjoying your reign!
Look to the night when Our People will come,
When Your Majesty will find His life course has run!
We are the men you forgot to recall,
And We will have revenge,
And we will see your fall!
See your fall!

This is the last word we will say:
This is open war, and it's time to pay!
Now you know, my Lord, you will face the sword!

[Chorus] (x2)
