Silent Genocide

Close your eyes on the pillow soft at night
Lock the door hoping everything’s alright
Say your prayers knowing nothing is forever!
What’s life if you cannot be alive?
What are dreams if you struggle to survive?
Is it real or is it my imagination?
They never stop to think what caused it all
They say you can leave the past where it belongs now

Hey, careful with what you say
Watch the tide rise and fall
Seize the day and take control
Hey, stop the games you play, take it as you think you may
What’s the price you have to pay?
Silent genocide

Eye for an eye makes the world go blind
Turn your back on the ones you left behind
Common sense be the answer to this madness
Watch the truth with the promise to be kind
While the king leaves no legacy behind
Knowledge comes but the wisdom lingers on
And after everything is said and done
Your laughter turns to tears another day, so

Hey, careful with what you say
Watch the tide rise and fall
Seize the day and take control
Hey, stop the games  you play, take it as you think you may
What’s the price you have to pay?
Silent genocide

Still after everything is said and done
You’re laughter turns to tears another day, so

Hey, careful with what you say
Watch the tide rise and fall
Seize the day and take control
Hey, stop the games you play, take it as you think you may
What’s the price you have to pay?
Silent genocide

Behind the Beast

The Nomad

Like a mirage riding on the desert sand
Like a vision floating with the desert winds
Know the secret of the ancient desert lands
Your are the keeper of the mystery in your hands

Nomad, rider of the ancient east
Nomad, rider that men know the least
Nomad, where you come from no one knows
Nomad, where you go to no one tells

Undercover of the veil of your disguise
The men that fear you are the ones that you despise
No one’s certain what you future will behold
You’re a legend you own story will be told

Nomad, rider of the ancient east
Nomad, rider that men know the least
Nomad, where you come from no one knows
Nomad, where you go to no one tells

No one dares to even look or glance your way
Your reputation goes before you they all say
Like a spirit that can disappear at will
Many claim of things but no one’s seen you kill

Nomad, you’re the rider so mysterious
Nomad, you’re the spirit that men fear in us
Nomad, you’re the rider of the desert sands
No man’s ever understood your genius

Those who see you in horizon desert sun
Those who fear your reputation hide or run
You send before you a mystique that’s all your own
Your silhouette is like a statue carved in stone

Nomad, you’re the rider so mysterious
Nomad, you’re the spirit that men fear in us
Nomad, you’re the rider of the desert sands
No man ever understood your genius

Legend has it that you speak an ancient tongue
But no one’s spoke to you and lived to tell the tale
Some may say that you have killed a hundred men
Others say that you have died and live again

Nomad, you’re the rider so mysterious
Nomad, you’re the spirit that men fear in us
Nomad, you’re the rider of the desert sands
No man ever understood your genius

Seven Son Of A Seven Son

Here they stand brothers them all
All the sons divided they’d fall
Here await the birth of the son
The seventh, the heavenly, the chosen one.

Here the birth from an unbroken line
Born the healer the seventh, his time
Unknowingly blessed and as his life unfolds
Slowly unveiling the power he holds

[Chorus:]
Seventh son of a seventh son [4 times]

Then they watch the progress he makes
The Good and the evil which path will he take
Both of them trying to manipulate
The use of his powers before it’s too late

[Chorus:]

Today is born the seventh one
Born of woman the seventh son
And he in turn of a seventh son
He has the power to heal
He has the gift of the second sight
He is the chosen one
So it shall be written
So it shall be done

The Man Who Would Be King

As he travels on the beast of Burden
Moving up along the mountain side
As he gazes looking down the valley
No regrets but his pride

As he journeys across mountain passes
And significant sweeps overhand
His reflection of the beauty around him
Feeling empty inside

He is running from his wildest thoughts
He is running from his everything
He is looking now to find something
Hoping he could be saved

He’s searching for the answer now
Is something that he’s managed to avoid up ’till now
Looking for the conviction that he craves
He needs to find the answer sooner or later

Pushed himself to the limits
He had to strife for all the harder things in life
But what the cost to give him now
His life and time are the only things that he has

Life is is not a rehearsal, only has this the one chance to get it right
Living really is only way to know
Maybe one day they ll forgive him what he’s done
with all the pain of lying too early in the grave

Destiny, no good to hide away
Penance now will be his only way
Understand, no good to run away
Penance now will be his saving grace

Just to make his peace with God
All is forgivable but he’s left a little late
Trying something that he’s not
Is impossible to change such a lot

He’s taken someone s life away
There s not a day that goes by he regrets what he’s done
He should have found another way
From the good book says an eye for an eye

In reflecting on decisions that were made
On the judgements that will haunt him till his grave
No-one has the right to take another life
But in his mind he had no choice so be it

Destiny, no good to hide away
Penance now will be his only way
Understand, no good to run away
Penance now will be his saving grace

Destiny, no good to hide away
Hear us now, we ll be his only way
understand , no good to run away
Hear us now, we ll be his saving grace

Far, far away
The man who would be king
Far, far away
The man who would be king

Happy b-day Ed!!

The Number Of The Beast

“Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea, for the Devil sends the
beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short…
Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the
beast for it is a human number, its number is Six hundred and
sixty six.”

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind

What did I see can I believe that what I saw
that night was real and not just fantasy

Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
reflections of my warped mind staring back at me

‘Cos in my dream it’s always there the evil face that twists my mind
and brings me to despair

The night was black was no use holding back
‘Cos I just had to see was someone watching me
In the mist dark figures move and twist
Was this all for real or some kind of hell
666 the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released

Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires burning bright
The ritual has begun Satan’s work is done
666 the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

This can’t go on I must inform the law
Can this still be real or just some crazy dream
But I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes
They seem to mesmerise me … can’t avoid their eyes
666 the number of the beast
666 the one for you and me

I’m coming back I will return
And I’ll possess your body and I’ll make you burn
I have the fire I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take it’s course
