Album • 1987
There's a man who sees all there is to see What the future holds for all As the days grow dark with the sole and final warning Beware of the ones with invisible friends They will steal into your mind And all too soon the signs begin to show Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up to the shining Don't be blind by fools again Fools again As the pages turn and the story's told From the visions he had seen The house on the hill With the haunted eyes that call No one laughed as madness came out To play it's game If you stay too long you'll finally go insane Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up to the shining Don't be blind by fools again Fools again Bells will take their toll On your way There's no way we're born to shine Before our time, all your life You're on your own Lonely road Lost in a time Let the light lead your way To the golden throne It's the only way Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up to the shining Don't be blind by fools again Rise up to the shining Live long live now Rise up the shining Don't be blind by fools again Oh rise up, to the shining Wise up they're gonna steal your mind Rise up, the house is gonna haunt you No one laughed, no one cried You stayed too long You're finally gonna stay

There's no end - there's no beginning To the old man's story Does he still remember me From lives gone by Oh I see his spirit rising Upon the back of time I've got nowhere to hide Will he keep a place for me He is the king of all kings The keeper of light He holds eternity's wings In his eyes an ocean's burning Swollen seas of tears Troubled mind the beating War drums in his ears No one ever hears his warning Am I the one he calls When they tell me they're afraid Some say I'll be put away He is the king of all kings The keeper of light He holds eternity's wings My blood will spill my blood My blood will spill my blood In the wisdom of the prophet's Never ending tale Open up the eyes Within your mind, he says Crowned in his ancient glory There's a king within us all Some will say it's all in vain That he doesn't have a name He is the king of all kings The keeper of light He holds eternity's wings

Livin' in the fast lane is easy Till you run out of road Friends will turn to strangers When you're out of control A slip of the tongue when It's done, is often hard to See it thru So never let your words be lies Or they'll come looking for you It's a hard life to love For the price of glory you left And threw your fortunes away Never really cared too much for The job or the pay You're standing in the rain with No cover but you never complain You're an angry young man face to Face but your mirrors insane It's a hard life to love I'm simply refusing a part in your world And I see how it burns See how it burns And you're simply denying the fact That you're blind and I see no more I see red - I only see red Think of all the times I was Hurting but you felt no pain Think of all the lies you told me Again and again And still you see the truth From those who continue to lie And now you're seeking life From those who are living to die It's a hard life to love I'm simply refusing a part in your world And I see how it burns See how it burns And you're simply denying the fact That you're blind and I see no more I see red - I only see red Livin' in the fast lane ain't easy When you run out of road Friends will turn to strangers When you've nowhere to go Don't give a damn when you're lost Cause you'll die from it all Laws were made to be broken And you do it for the thrill of it all It's a hard life to love It's a hard life to love

Winged with steel they fill the air The soldiers of fortune will ride In the sights of the enemy's gun Those who have taken their oaths tonight Are well prepared they know they'll Do or die even if it's suicide Let's take a chance As the skies will Burn tonite Wasted lives and spirits run free On the wings of no return Dressed to kill where eagles dare The fate of a nation's at hand Is this the answer to the prayers Come the dawn, thru the blood Red skies return with tears In their eyes, and they Recall thou shalt not kill And in the morning They'll take a hero's bow And make the ever lasting flight Hear them calling up above all Across the skies Hear them calling up above from The other side Here them call! Let's take a chance As the skies will burn tonite Wasted lives and spirits run free On the wings of no return Let's take a chance As the skies will burn tonite Wasted lives and spirits run free On the wings of no return

I'll play your game But if you lose you're gonna have to pay the price Broken chains, like a prisoner free at last The fear inside just up and died Time will tell if i am wrong It won't be too long You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark Well I'm not born to lose I'm not born to lose You curse my name, as you turn and walk away, from view It won't be too long You don't scare me cos you're Hard to see and it's time That you were gone It won't be too long You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark Well I'm not born to lose You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark What you gonna do about it now What you gonna do about it now It won't be too long It won't be too long It won't be too long You think I'm chasing shadows In the dark What you gonna do about it now What you gonna do about it now Ain't nothing I can do about it now

Close my eyes starting dreaming See a vision filled with wings Head my way Feel the presence of unknown power Telling me to come This is the only way It's dream within dream Lost and lonely Don't get pulled by the devil's hand Silent screamer filled with fear As the night time shapes a face Then disappears Scared forever into believing That your mind has met the Prince of whom you see It's dream within dream Lost and lonely Don't get fooled by the Devil's hand It's dream within dream Fool forever, don't get fooled Forever Don't get fooled, be the devil In your eyes The evil spirit rises Blinded by the dark You fall into shame As the reaper takes you Down the spiral stairway You share the evil pit With satan's name Nightmare it's got me runnin' Nightmare it's calling you Nightmare it's got me runnin' Nightmare it's calling you It's dream within a dream Lost and lonely Don't get fooled, be the devil It's dream within a dream Lost forever Don't get fooled It's got me running It's just a nightmare It's got me running It's got me running
This track is instrumental.
All your life you've been slipping and sliding Trying to find a way Sun won't shine but now it's your time to pay There's no turning back as you look The hangman in the eye Now hell's just your death away It's too late to say you care When there's evil in your stare You say you're not to blame In your head voices mocking every prayer Remember the face you saw That once was you Spirit high there's no way that You could lose Give him rope they said As you look the hangman in the eye Now around your neck you feel The noose In your head voices mocking every prayer Now you're lost forever I'm burning with fire it's time to Leave or get out I'm burning in fire I can't take No more so get out I'm burning with fire the wheels of Steel will grind you Burning in fire this time You're lost forever Lost forever! There's an evil in your stare Lost forever! And hell's just a breath away You're lost forever And there's no way out you burn With fire it's time to get out Get out, get out And there's no way out Lost forever

No one said it had to be this way Why are we the victims of their final word Dying world is killing us so slowly I believe no god may save us now Can't you see what I see Sinners say your prayers tonite Your judgement day is here Child tomorrow will die, not even Born jesus our questions He never seems to hear Dying for the answers may be The price we pay, to find the Key to our lives Is there a heaven is there a hell Who's this god, tell me there's No god above, why We chose what lord, deep Within our souls He's not one thing We are his spirit We could save this world From destruction day Can't you see what I see You and I victims of their word As the masters of power Try to poison our world Greed money taken over Their souls, you're Just mechanical brains Politicians don't know Just don't know We can change this world we Live in, don't let it die

She's young, but lord what a woman she's quick as a brawl at five She's class, one hell of a woman, she really confused my mind She's bad, power of the pleasure is far enough ta chase She's fast, power of the pedal is keeping up the pace Wise up, she's some kind of woman Wise up, you can't get away Wise up, ooh just when you think that its safe I'm gone, I can't justify when I ain't got some control So long, I ain't gonna stop 'till I step right off this world She's gone, I guess I'm the winner of an innocent little time Don't look, a tap on the shoulder sends a shiver down my spine Wise up, she's some kind of woman Wise up, can't get away Wise up, oh just when you think that its safe (safe) ... She's back Cryin', to give all the lovin' but I never was enough I cried, I prayed up to Heaven but the Lord said, "Boy that's tough." This smile, only served me to ruin me when I thought I had direction That walk, how the hell did she do it every move was perfection Wise up, she's some kind of woman Wise up, you can't get away Wise up, ooh just when you think that its safe Ooh she's back Ah she's back Ahh my motors runnin' It's buzzin' Ooh she's back Ah Ooh she's back Ooh
