Eleven saintly shrouded mensilhouettes stand against the skyone in front with a cross held highcome to wash my sins away Standing alone in the wind and rainfeeling the fear that is growingSensing the change in the tide againcaught by the storm that is brewingFeel the anxiety hold off the fearsome of the doubt in the things you believeNow that your faith will be put to the testnothing to do but await what is comingWhy is then God still protecting meeven when I don't deserve it?Though I am blessed with an inner strengthsome they would call it a penanceWhy am I meant to face this aloneasking the question time and againPraying to God won't keep me aliveInside my head feel the fear start to rise... They'll be saving their prayers when the moment comesthere'll be penance to pay when it's judgement dayAnd the guilty'll bleed when that moment comesthey'll be coming to claim, take your soul away The sign of the crossThe name of the roseA fire in the skyThe sign of the cross They'll be coming to bring the eternal flameThey'll be bringing us all immortalityHolding comunion so the world be blessedmy creator, my God, lay my soul to rest The sign of the crossThe name of the roseA fire in the skyThe sign of the cross Lost the love of heaven aboveChose the lust of the earth belowEleven saintly shrouded menCame to wash my sins away

Lord Of The Flies (Harris, Gers) (Commentary)I don't care for this world anymore, I just want to live my own fantasyFate has brought us to these shores, what was meant to be is now happeningI've found that I like this living in dangerLiving on the edge it feels, it makes feel as oneWho cares now what's right or wrong, it's realityKilling so we survive wherever we may roamWherever we may hide, we've got to get away I don't want existence to end, we must prepare ourselves for the elementsI just want to feel like we're strong, we don't need a code of moralityI like all the mixed emotion and angerIt brings out the animal, the power you can feelAnd feeling so high with this much adrenalineExcited but scary to believe what we've become Saints and sinners, something within usWe are lord of the fliesSaints and sinners, something willing usTo be lord of the flies(3:17-Solo: Janick Gers) Saints and sinners, something within usWe are lord of the fliesSaints and sinners, something willing usTo be lord of the fliesSaints and sinners, something within usWe are lord of the fliesSaints and sinners, something willing usTo be lord of the flies

The freeway is jammedand it's backed up for milesThe car is an oven and baking is wildNothing is ever the way it should beWhat we deserve we just don't get you seeA briefcase, a lunch and a man on the edgeEach step gets closer to losing his headIs someone in heaven are they looking down'Cause nothing is fair just you look around Falling downFalling downFalling down... He's sick of waiting of lying like thisThere's a hole in the sky for the angels to kissBranded a leper because you don't fitIn the land of the freeYou can live by your wits Once he built missiles a nations defenceNow he can't even give birthday presentsAcross the city he leaves in his wakeA glimpse of the future a cannibal state Falling downFalling downFalling down... The freeway is jammed and its backed up for milesthe car is an oven and baking is wildNothing is ever the way it should beWhat we deserve we just don't get you seeA briefcase, a lunch, and a man on the edgeEach step gets closer to losing his headIs someone in heaven are they looking downNothing is fair just you look around Falling downFalling downFalling down...

After the warAnd now that they've sent us homewardI can't help but feel that I'm on my ownNo one can see just what this conflict has done toThe minds of the men who are on their way home I'm scarred for lifebut it's not my flesh that's woundedSo how can I face the torment aloneThe vivid scenes and all the recurring nightmaresI lay there and sweat until it gets light People say 'don't worry'Say that time's a perfect healerThat the nightmares they will come to passCan't hear what they're sayingI am living in my own worldAnd I'm feeling trance-like all the time I hear voices in my headCould I really be going crazyIn the night the visions seem so realDo you care if you live or dieWhen you laugh are you really cryingYou're not sure what's real anymore Fortunes of warFortunes of warFortunes of warno pain anymore Sometimes I wakeI feel that my spirit's brokenI wonder if I've the strength...carry on carry on

All my dark dreams driftLike smoke in the breezeThe fear grips me as I fall towards my sleepHere comes the nightmare that never endsHere is the dream that makes monsters of men In the house of my soulIn rooms of ugliness and coldMemories locked awayAll the doubts and fears I never faced Now they come againI am falling down to meet with themFears within us allMine awake and they stand up tall Look for the truthDeepest cut of all from youKnife of the truthBlade of harted slicing through I pray my sleep will breakMaybe this time I won't wakeWeakness I hide so wellThis dagger in my mind will tell It's my final standI make a fist out of each handTo shadows of the pastTake a breath and I scream attack Look for the truthDeepest cut of all from youKnife of the truthBlade of hatred slicing throughHere is the truthDeepest cut of all from youknife of the truthBlade of hatred slicing through

Silently to silence fallin the fields of futile warToys of death are spitting leadWhere boys that were our soldiers bledwar horse and war machine Curse the name of libertyMarching on as if they shouldmix in the dirt our brothers' blood Chorus:In the mud and rainwhat are we fighting forIs it worth the painIs it worth dying forWho will take the blameWhy did they make a warQuestions that come againShould we be fighting at all Once a ploughman hitched his teamHere he sowed his little dreamNow bodies arms and legs are strewnWhere musterd gas and barbwire bloomEach moment's like a yearI've nothing left inside for tearsComrades dead or dying lieI'm left alone asking why repeat chorus After the warLeft feeling no one has wonAfter the warWhat does a soldier become

A lonely cry for help reaching out for helpto anyoneA silent prayer to God to help you on your wayI've been depressed so longIt's hard to remember when I was happyI've felt like suicide a dozen times or moreBut that's the easy way, that's the selfish wayThe hardest part is to get on with your life You're searching in the darkClutching at straws to find a wayYou take the Tarot cardsAnd throw them to the windYour question your beliefs, your inner thoughts,your whole existenceAnd if there is a God then answer if you willAnd tell me of my fate, tell me of my placeTell me if I'll ever rest in peace If you could live your life againWould you change a thingOr leave it all the sameIf you had the chance againWould you change a thing at allWhen you look back at your pastCan you say that you are proudOf what you've doneAre there times when you believethat the right you thought was wrong All of my life I have believedJudgement of Heaven is waiting for me All of my life now I have believedJudgement of Heaven awaits for me All of my life I have believedJudgement of Heaven is waiting for meIs waiting for me ...

Sometimes it makes me wonderSometimes it makes me questionSometimes it makes me saddenedAlways it makes me angry but ... When you can see it happeningThe madness that's all around youNobody seens to worryThe World seens so powerless to act ... It's out of controlBlood on The World's handsEach day a new toll Another assassinationThe same day a new creationBut what are they coming intoSecurity of a world that brings ... One day another killingSomewhere there's someone starvingAnother a savage rapingMeanwhile there's someone laughing at us It's out of controlBlood on The World's handsEach day it goes on Brutality and aggressionTomorrow another lessonExpecting another air raidPraying for a ceasefire ... They say things are getting betterNo need to be complacentThere's chaos across the borderAnd one day it could be happening to us It's out of controlBlood in The World's handsIt's our epitaphIt's out of controlSomeone should knowBlood on The World's hands Someone should

I've looked into the heart of darknessWhere the blood-red journey endsWhen you've faced the heart of darknessEven your soul begins to bend For a week I have been waitingStill I am only in SaigonThe walls move in a little closerI feel the jungle call me on Every minute I get weakerWhile in the jungle they grow strongWhat I wanted was a missionAnd for my sins they gave me one They brought it up just like room service'Cause everyone gets what they wantAnd when that mission was all overI'd never want another one I know, captain,That you've done this work beforeWe've got a problemYou can help us all I'm sureThe colonel's gone rogueAnd his methods are unsoundYou'll take a PBR up river track him down There's a conflict in every human heartAnd the temptation is to take it all to farIn this war things get so confusedBut there are some things Which cannot be excused He's acting like a God - an insane lunaticYour mission - exterminateWith extreme prejudiceThe route is dangerousAnd your progress may be slowHere is the file and it's all you need to know Here I am the knife in my handAnd now I understand why the genius must die Now I stand alone in the darknessWith his blood upon my handsWhere sat the warrior the poetNow lie the fragments of a man I've looked into the heart of darknessWhere the blood-red journey endsWhen you've faced the heart of darknessEven your soul begins to bend

I get in from work at 2 a. m.and sit down with a beerTurn on late night t.v.and then wonder why I'm hereIt's meaningless and trivialand it washes over meAnd once again I wonderis this all there is for me Here I am againLook at me againHere I am againOn my onTrying hard to seeWhat there is for meHere I am againOn my own Life seems so patheticI wish I could leave it all behindThis canvas chair, this bed,these walls that fall in on my mindHold on for something betterthat just drags you through the dirtDo you just let go or carry onand try to take the hurt Here I am againLook at me againHere I am againOn my ownTrying hard to seeWhat there is for meHere I am againON MY OWN!
