A Dead Man's WordsI trace what's left of my
cold steel...as it twitches.
Apply the tourniquet tight.
Savor the moment, this might be my last sip of life.
I see at least one hundred miles
Of shifting, stirring sand.
A forsaken man in this strangers' land.
They've left me for...dead.
A Junkie's BluesI still have questions with no answers.
I'm alive... but I'm not living.
I don't have much time left... I just know this:
I've lived a violent life.
I might as well be dead.
All There Was[Verse 1]
Hey
I am the one
That's been keeping you alive
Who am I to even change?
[?]
[Chorus]
Anybody ListeningYou and I long to live like wind upon the water
If we close our eyes we'll maybe realize
There's more to life than what we have known
And I can't believe I've spent so long
Living lies I knew were wrong inside
I've just begun to see the light
Long ago there was a dream, had to make a choice or two
At 30,000 FtWhatever happens now
Is beyond my control
Emotion has abandoned me,
Faded away and left me….cold
The call’s been made
I’m here, dependent on the atmosphere
contained inside this mask I wear.
BloodThank-you for the lies, the lies you sold us.
Thank-you for this vision of violence.
Thank-you for this song you gave me to sing.
Thank-you for the capping day
of a culture that lay dying.
Yes it's us dying.
Maybe it won't be long,
now that it's all gone on.
Breaking The SilenceThey told me to run, but just how far?
Can I go wearing the black mask of fear?
The hate in my eyes always gives me away
The tension building slowly
Now I lost everything I had in you
Nothing we shared means a thing
Without you close to me
I can't live without you
BrokenYou're broken. Broken like a promise ...
Can you remember sunny days and the smiling face of love?
My love, do you remember me?
Hush now, hush now, silly girl don't cry, just put your hand in mine.
I remember, the way you laughed and how we danced... all night.
Wish I could have died in your arms.
Bulletproof[Verse 1]
How many times must we try?
Lost in the gaze of your watering eyes
How many times
Have we questioned all we've ever known
I stood right by your side
But my love was not enough
Deliverance "Deliverance"
Ride swift across the plain
Don't you turn back, keep heed in your flame
Kings with no mercy, this planet at war
Torn from enchantment, this land forevermore
Born from obsession, you cried death for light
DisconnectedI've got to do something
about the loathsome
state I'm in.

EmpireLast night the word came down, ten dead in Chinatown.
Innocent, their only crime was being in the wrong place, at the wrong time
Too bad, people say what's wrong with the kids today
I tell you right now they've got nothing to lose
They're building EMPIRE!
Johnny used to work after school
Eye9[Intro]
Running out of time
Nowhere to go
I've been searching blind
Through these hollow walls
[Verse 1]
Escape these boundaries
Eyes of a StrangerAll alone now
Except for the memories
Of what we had and what we knew
Everytime I try to leave it behind me
I see something that reminds me of you
Every night the dreams return to haunt me
Your rosary wrapped around your throat
I lie awake and sweat, afraid to fall asleep
Hellfire[Verse 1]
Lock down
What do we make of this madness?
It's a world gone mad
Shot down
Identity unknown
Mistaken for the enemy
Hit The BlackHanging by a thread, problems in my head,
don't know what I said, living to be dead on the run.
Corporation greed, television need,
overdose and bleed, pornograph obscene, I'm a liar.
There's no brakes on me, as I'm running down the track.
They'll be waiting for me, but I'm never coming back.
Hourglass[Verse 1]
The metronome of rain on the rooftop
Velvet draped across the floor …mmmm
Was a time when we measured
But never up to our fathers
The sorrow cuts
And as I stare at the blade
I Don't Believe In LoveI awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye
Searching high and low
The criminal mind found at the scene of the crime
Handcuffed and blind, I didn't do it
She said she loved me
I guess I never knew
But do we ever, ever really know?
I Dream In InfraredAs you woke this morning
And opened up your eyes
Did you notice the tear-stains
Lining your face were mine
Don't you wonder, can't you see
What's happening to our lives
I can't keep living this masquerade
Jet City WomanEvery time I leave
You say you wont be there.
And you're always there.
Every time I cry your name at night,
You pull close and say it's alright.
I look in your eyes, just like the rain.
Washing me, rain wash over me.
Touching your face, I feel the heat
Just Us[Intro]
What could I say to you?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
We've traveled so far
Now it's just us once again
[Verse 1]
Pictures appear from the dark
Liquid SkyI ain't no Romeo. I'm just the man for you.
Holding out as secrets travel, they kind of get to you.
Everybody says that it could've been something.
Never was a smart kid, never knew a good thing.
Always hearing voices swim, in your liquid sky.
Liquid Sky
Always hearing voices, like no more choices in disguise.
Neue RegelReach for a new horizon
Setting sights on a circuit scream
Hail the new arrival on
Static signs from a distant wanderer
Fill the air nights are never seen
Face the electric time shock now
No it's not a dream anymore
OdisseaC’è nella forza di un’idea
Una luce nobile trasparente
Unica innocente, libera
Un respire di follia
Ma se non la fermi è fragile
E indifferente poi va via come
Te…
OpenYou're an angel with your wings broken,
wearing sandals that I tripped in.
You're a holiday already taken,
a cocktail that's stirred never shaken.
Your heads in overload.
You've reached your threshold
and you're about to explode.
Operation MindcrimeIt just takes a minute
And you'll feel no pain
Gotta make something of your life boy
Give me one more vein
You've come to see the doctor
Cause I'll show you the cure
I'm gonna take away the questions
Yeah I'm gonna make you sure
Promised LandWatching the sand fall, listening for the knock
upon my door,
and waiting...for Promised Land.
Standing neck deep in life, my ring of brass
lay rusting on the floor.Is this all?
Because it's not what I expected.
Queen of the reichIn the dead of night
She'll come and take you away
Searing beams of light and thunder
Over blackened plains
She will find her way
Flying high through the night
She will hide your fate
Real WorldStrange, the view from here
Words we spoke, forgotten at the time
Now replay in my mind
What went wrong, what was right
Looking back, I never was there for you
You didn't say, but I know it's true
I can't find the real world alone
Remember MeFor just one minute, step into my life.
Read the page and
Run away with me.
The day I made that vow.
I didn't know then what I know today.
There's so much to say.
I don't know what the future holds
Revolution CallingFor a price I'd do about anything
Except pull the trigger
For that I'd need a pretty good cause
Then I heard of Dr. X
The man with the cure
Just watch the television
Yeah, you'll see there's something going on
Rhythm Of HopeLying here awake again.
Minutes before dawn I hear your breathing,
your heart beat like a song.
Lately I've been feeling a little less then good but
seeing things for the first time like I never could.
I've had my head down against the door,
trying to get to something I couldn't find before.
Scarborough FairAre you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme,
Remember me to the one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine.
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme,
Without a seem or needlework
Screaming In DigitalI am the beat of your pulse
The computer word made flesh
We are one you and I
We are versions of the same
When you can see what I feel
Don't turn your back on me
Or you might find that your dreams
Are only program cards
Selfish Lives[Verse 1]
Silence once that you speak
Reform the rights till they're tired and weak
(suppress the infamy, confine the skeptics, segregation)
Strangers passing by
Turn our vision under the eye in the sky
Who do you trust that's on the currency, man?
Why's it so hard, don't you understand?
Silent LucidityHush now don't you cry
Wipe away the tear drops from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream
Spinning thru your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game
Of life
Silent Lucidity - Безмолвная ЯсностьТише, не плачь,
Вытри слезы, капающие из глаз
Ты лежишь в безопасности на кровати,
Это все было плохим сном,
Крутившимся в голове,
Твой разум обманывал тебя, чтобы ты чувствовал боль
Кого-то близкого тебе, покидающего игру жизни.
Speed of LightWonder where'd the time go?
There it was, gone in the blink of an eye.
See how much life is left
Staring back in my face?
But I know it now as clear as,
Clear as a window.
Never thought this day would come,
Spreading the diseaseShe always brings me what I need
Without I beg and sweat and bleed
When we're alone at night
Waiting for the call
She feeds my skin
Sixteen and on the run from home
Found a job in Times Square
Suite Sister Mary[SPOKEN]
[Dr. X:] "Kill her. That's all you have to do."
[Nikki:] "Kill Mary?"
[Dr. X:] "She's a risk, and get the priest as well."
10 P.M., I feel the rain coming down
My face feels the wet, my mind the storm
Flashing lights as people race to find shelter from the pour
Take Hold Of The FlameWe see the light of those who find
A world has passed them by
To late to save a dream that's growing cold
We realize that fate must hide its face
From those who try
To see the distant signs of unforetold
Oh... oh, take hold
The Killing WordsMusic & Lyrics:
Chris DeGarmo & Geoff Tate
Wait for me I'll understand
I just need time to comprehend your changes
There's always been these changes in you
I remember there was a time when
Fears we had we left behind and we danced
The Lady Wore Black"The Lady Wore Black"
On a lonely walk this morning
A light mist in the air
Dark clouds laughing at me in silence
Casting shadows through my hair
In the distance I saw a woman
Toxic Remedy[Verse 1]
What symbol would you choose
To decorate your final breath?
You contemplate then choose
The misery that serves you best
[Pre-Chorus]
It's too late to realize
